This study investigates the legal status and ethical implications of applying
Artificial Intelligence (AI) in public and judicial decision-making contexts,
including the allocation of social assistance and criminal risk prediction. The
rapid global shift toward algorithmic governance raises a pressing need for
Muslim societies to establish a fiqh-ethical framework grounded in Islamic
legal tradition. Using a qualitative-normative method, the research adopts an
Uṣūl al-Fiqh and Islamic Ethics approach with a focus on Istiṣlāḥ (public
interest analysis) and the application of core al-Qawāʿid al-Fiqhiyyah (Islamic
legal maxims). The findings reveal that the legal status of AI is mubāḥ
muqayyad (permissible with conditions), provided that its development and
use comply with the maxim Darʾ al-Mafāsid Muqaddamun ʿAlā Jalbi alMaṣāliḥ

(preventing harm takes precedence over obtaining benefit). AI
becomes ḥarām li ghayrihi when it generates mafsadah ẓulm (harm through
injustice), particularly due to algorithmic bias. The research proposes an
Islamic Ethical Framework for Algorithmic Governance built upon three
pillars: Equity (bias mitigation), Amānah (independent algorithmic audit), and
Masʾūliyyah (human supervisory accountability). The study concludes that AI
must serve solely as an instrument (wasīlah), while ultimate legal and public
decisions must remain under human authority to safeguard iʿtiqād al-Qāḍī and
ensure full accountability.
