ARTICLE ANNOTATION

quote
This article presents a legal-comparative analysis of the classical and modern interpretations of the rahn (pledge) institution in Islamic law. The research focuses on two primary sources: the provisions on pledge in the Majalla al-Ahkam al-Adliyya, the first codified Islamic civil code adopted in the Ottoman Empire in the 19th century, and Shari’ah Standard No. 39 issued by the Accounting and Auditing Organization for Islamic Financial Institutions (AAOIFI), titled “Rahn and Its Application in Contemporary Practice.” The analysis is based on a comparative examination of both texts and explores differences in key aspects, including the nature of pledged assets, forms of possession, the rights and obligations of the parties, and enforcement mechanisms. The findings indicate that, although both sources recognize rahn as a Shari’ah-compliant security instrument grounded in trust, significant differences exist due to evolving legal contexts, societal needs, and financial practices. The article highlights the foundational role of classical Islamic jurisprudence in shaping contemporary financial standards and affirms the continued relevance of rahn in modern Islamic finance.
