The Legal Objectives (Maqasid al-Sharia) According to Imam al-Shatibi and Their Application in Calling to Allah Almighty Ahmed Abu al-Sebaa, Saher; Mohamed Shendi, Prof. Ismail This study aimed to identify the objectives of Islamic law (maqāṣid al-sharīʿah) according to Imam al-Shāṭibī and to examine their application in the call to Allah Almighty. The study derives its importance from the contemporary need of daʿwah discourse for a sound Sharīʿah-based methodology that takes into account the objectives of Islamic law and the interests of people, and that balances between textual evidence and public interest in calling to Allah Almighty. To achieve this aim, the study adopted the descriptive-analytical method and the inductive method. The researcher divided the study into four chapters: the first addresses Imam al-Shāṭibī and his efforts in serving the sources of daʿwah; the second is devoted to explaining the theory of maqāṣid and its development; the third examines the characteristics of daʿwah to Allah and the qualities of a successful dāʿiyah according to Imam al-Shāṭibī; and the fourth discusses Imam al-Shāṭibī’s methodology in daʿwah to Allah, comprising three sections. At the end of the study, a number of findings were reached, the most important of which are: that, according to al-Shāṭibī, the objectives of Islamic law constitute a fundamental tool for understanding Sharīʿah rulings and keeping pace with positive change in society, which motivates the dāʿiyah to present the message of Islam in a manner that reflects the true nature of this religion and its tolerance; that Imam al-Shāṭibī’s approach to daʿwah is based on adherence to the Qur’an and the Sunnah and moderation in dealing with Islamic jurisprudence, emphasizing the importance of balancing facilitation and strictness and rejecting blind imitation; and that Imam al-Shāṭibī held a balanced, Sharīʿah-grounded vision in assessing the role of reason and its relationship to revelation, clarifying that reason must be subordinate to transmitted texts and should not تجاوز the limits set by the Sharīʿah..

The study population consisted of all mothers of martyrs in the governorate. A quasi-experimental approach was used as the appropriate methodology for this study, and it was applied to an experimental and control group, which included 30 mothers of martyrs, who were randomly divided into two groups: an experimental group consisting of 15 mothers who received a selective social service program consisting of 12 counseling sessions, and a control group consisting of 15 mothers who did not receive any intervention. The researcher used a scale for psychological and social problems that she developed specifically for this study, which was applied to both groups in pre- and post-measurements. A follow-up measurement was also conducted one month after the end of the program for the experimental group only, in order to examine the sustainability of the effect. The results of the study showed statistically significant differences between the experimental and control groups in the post-measurement in favor of the experimental group, indicating the effectiveness of the selective program in alleviating psychological and social problems. The results also revealed the continuity of this positive impact two weeks after the end of the program, confirming the sustainability of the effectiveness of the counseling intervention.

The results reveal significant differences in the pretest and posttest measurements on both scales, favoring the posttest, indicating the effectiveness of the counseling program in reducing irrational thoughts and enhancing self-esteem among the participants. Additionally, the results show no statistically significant differences between the posttest and follow-up measurements on the irrational thoughts scale, suggesting the sustained effectiveness of the program. However, there are statistically significant differences between the posttest and follow-up measurements on the self-esteem scale, indicating sustained program effectiveness in this area as well Based on the findings, the study recommends the development and implementation of counseling programs grounded in psychological theories by counselors to assist individuals with psychological disorders in coping with life stressors resulting from having a family member with a psychological disorder.
