The objective of this study is to explain the role of scholars in putting the foundation in the field of maqasid, how they have attempted to make it practical in real life and how they have tried to link with rule of shariah. Maqasid is the one highlight the importance, the wisdom and the characteristics of shariah, and its compatibility with every place and time. Using the inductive and descriptive method, it is clear that there is a disparity in the approaches of scholars in studying maqasid. Some of them are interested in the explanatory approach by searching the importance of shariah and the wisdom behind it. On the other hand, some have linked maqasid with the concept of spiritual while others deeply investigated pros and cons. The other categories of scholars are turned to divide and categorize types of maqasid whilst others turned to the general point of view by searching in the chapters of maqasid. Among them some draw a complete theory of maqasid and its chapters. Likewise some are turned to link maqsid with the real social life for Muslim society and to investigate further about maqsid.
