The growth and development of fiqh has a close relationship with ijtihad. Results of ijtihad
by mujtahid have contribution in the establishment and development of fiqh. In other words, the
growth and development of fiqh is depend on how much mujtahid use the ability and knowledge to
make a legal product. Declining in the development of fiqh is caused by weakness of the Ulama to
perform ijtihad. After the golden age of Islam, Ulama has no longer perform ijtihad as was done by
the his predecessors. Moreover, the Ulama made a statement that ijtihad was closed, so the
development of fiqh has decreased. To restore the spirit of ijtihad, the Ulama now have to perform
various concepts of ijtihad.
