Abstract

All people witnessed the new epidemic of Corona (COVID-19), which spread in the world, and infected millions of people. It is well known that Almighty Allah would not send down a disease to His servants except that He sent down a cure for it. Therefore, the Islamic nations should follow the instructions and measures urged by the Islamic religion, or instructions issued by the competent health authorities to prevent this epidemic, especially since medical practitioners have not found any effective treatment to prevent the infection. Even though it has reached the level of vaccines, the transmission of infection has not been prevented. Therefore, these measures and instructions remain the mainstay of prevention and protection from it. This research aims to clarify the Shariah and medical preventive measures against the emerging coronavirus and study them as an analytical study from the perspective of Maqasid al-Shariah. To achieve this goal; the researcher followed the inductive and analytical approach, which consists in extrapolating and following the Shariah preventive measures from epidemics in general, and the Corona epidemic in particular, then analyzing and studying them in the light of Maqasid al-Shariah. The researcher concluded that among the Shariah measures to prevent epidemics and diseases are the following: quarantine, fleeing from lepers, avoiding handshakes, purification, placing a hand or a garment over the mouth when sneezing, fermentation of vessels and potting of pots, abstinence from immorality and disobedience, enjoining good and forbidding evil, and adherence to supplications and remembrances. Similarly, among the medical measures to prevent the corona epidemic are the following: taking care of hygiene, washing hands, using disinfectants, wearing masks and gloves, social distancing, and applying home quarantine for those infected with colds, avoiding direct contact with them, Sharia preceded modern medicine in devising physical and moral precautions to prevent epidemics and diseases.
