Corruption among public and private workers has become a hot debate issue in foreign countries as well as Malaysia. According to a report by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (SPRM), the statistics on the number of arrests from 2014 to 2021 has increased sharply to 205 percent, which is equivalent to 552 cases to 1125 cases. Malaysia has recorded a loss of almost RM 1.8 Trillion due to corrupt practices. Various measures and initiatives to prevent corruption in Malaysia have been taken by the government but reports on corruption continue to rise and show no reduction. The main thing to emphasize before creating the best method of prevention is to identify what is the cause of the problem.Thus, this article aims to analyze the factors that contribute to corrupt activities and the challenges faced by Malaysia in dealing with them. This qualitative study uses documentation and observation methods in the data collection process. Results of the study found that internal factors that cause a person to commit corruption are the existence of opportunities, personal weaknesses and lack of integrity.While external factors are due to low wages, financial stress and work pressure as well as ineffective national policies. The use of technology by perpetrators to prevent corrupt activities from being detected, interference and lack of cooperation from politicians as well as lack of public support and confidence are challenges faced by the government and anti-corruption agencies in tackling corruption in Malaysia. It is hoped that this study can be used as a reference and guide the authorities in curbing corruption while ensuring the community and individuals in the office are free from the symptoms of corruption

Gejala rasuah dalam kalangan penjawat awam mahupun swasta sering menjadi isu polemik yang sangat hangat diperkatakan sehingga merosakkan imej negara di mata dunia. Menurut laporan Suruhanjaya Pencegahan Rasuah Malaysia (SPRM), statistik jumlah tangkapan dari tahun 2014 hingga 2021 berlaku kenaikan mendadak sehingga 205 peratus iaitu bersamaan dengan 552 kes kepada 1125 kes. Bahkan Malaysia telah mencatatkan kehilangan hampir RM 1.8 Trillion disebabkan kegiatan amalan rasuah. Pelbagai langkah dan inisiatif bagi mencegah kegiatan rasuah di Malaysia telah diambil oleh pihak kerajaan namun laporan terhadap kegiatan rasuah terus menerus menaik tanpa menunjukkan sebarang tanda penurunan. Usaha ini perlu dikaji semula berdasarkan kerangka syariah supaya penambahbaikan dapat dilakukan seterusnya mampu mengurangkan permasalahan berkaitan rasuah. Justeru, artikel ini bertujuan untuk membincangkan konsep rasuah menurut Islam dan mengkaji pendekatan menanganinya berdasarkan maqasid syariah. Kajian kualitatif ini menggunakaan kaedah dokumentasi dan pemerhatian dalam proses pengumpulan data. Hasil kajian mendapati bahawa rasuah merupakan satu perbuatan yang dilarang dalam agama Islam. Pendekatan menangani rasuah berdasarkan maqasid syariah dalam konteks hifz Al-nafs boleh dilaksanakan dengan menerapkan konsep thahirun nafs, memastikan hasil pekerjaan daripada sumber halal dan mengamalkan etika kerja yang baik. Manakala dalam konteks hifz Al-mal ia boleh dilaksanakan dengan menerapkan sifat adil dalam pengurusan, mengemaskini urus tadbir dengan amanah dan merangka hukuman ta’azir bagi pesalah rasuah. Diharapkan kajian ini dapat dijadikan rujukan dan panduan kepada pihak yang berwajib bagi membendung jenayah rasuah dalam konteks Islam untuk menjamin masyarakat dan individu berjawatan bebas daripada gejala rasuah. Kajian lanjutan berkaitan dengan faktor orang muslim melakukan jenayah rasuah juga boleh dilaksanakan pada masa akan datang agar pendekatan yang dicadangkan boleh diterapkan dalam menangani rasuah di Malaysia.
