Abstract

This study aims to demonstrate the *impact of the course 'Objectives of Islamic Law (Maqasid al-Shariah)' in promoting moderation and rejecting violence . The problem lies in the fact that the subject of *'Objectives of Islamic Law'* is one of the courses taught in higher education institutions, particularly in colleges specializing in jurisprudence and legal theory, or as part of Islamic culture courses. Given the topics covered in this course and its connection to preserving the five essential necessities (life, religion, intellect, lineage, and property), it is presumed to foster moderation in societies at large, and among youth and students in particular. This study gains its importance from its focus on the course of *Maqasid al-Shariah*, as the significance of this field is undeniable for both specialists and intellectuals. Proper application and attention to it demonstrate the elevated status of Islam, while neglecting it leads to numerous issues in understanding and implementation. Additionally, the study addresses the impact of *Maqasid al-Shariah* on achieving moderation. The researcher adopted an inductive-analytical approach, and the study concluded that the *Maqasid al-Shariah* course contributes to promoting moderation and rejecting violence by equipping students with accurate information, sound understanding, and motivation to apply what they have learned in a correct and balanced manner. It also fosters an awareness of the mistakes made by individuals and groups regarding these principles, instilling in them a dislike for violence in all its forms. The researcher recommended that faculty members in higher education institutions pay attention to real-world contexts, integrate Islamic sciences, and address thire practical applications.
