The Role of Health Workers in Strengthening the Concept of Sharia-Compliant Hospitals from the Perspective of Maqasid Sharia

The consolidation of the concept of sharia-compliant hospitals is an increasingly important necessity in the effort to enhance the quality of healthcare services in line with Islamic principles. This article examines the role of healthcare workers in realizing sharia-compliant hospitals, emphasizing the perspective of maqasid sharia. The background of the study indicates that although efforts have been made to make hospitals compliant with sharia, the role of healthcare workers in fulfilling this responsibility still requires more in-depth research. The main issue identified is the lack of understanding and awareness among healthcare workers regarding their responsibilities in ensuring that the services provided adhere to the principles of sharia. The objective of this study is to identify the critical role of healthcare workers in strengthening the concept of sharia-compliant hospitals and to assess how the elements of maqasid sharia can be applied in their daily practices. The methodology of this study employs a document analysis approach, where official documents, guidelines, and previous studies are analyzed to obtain a comprehensive picture of current practices and suggestions for improvement. Research findings indicate that there is an urgent need to enhance understanding and training among healthcare personnel regarding the concept of maqasid sharia and how it can be applied in the management of treatment and healthcare services. A holistic approach that combines aspects of sharia, ethics, and professionalism is necessary in the effort to strengthen sharia-compliant hospitals in Malaysia. The results of this study are expected to enhance the quality of healthcare services in Sharia-compliant hospitals and support more effective implementation from the perspective of maqasid sharia.
