| description | The motor industry and motorcycle taxis have a bright future. The issue of population density in cities and road systems has become a massive challenge to the country's development. Motorcycle taxi services using Internet software booking systems are rapidly developing as a solution to traffic jams. Momentum Works Report for 2022: Gojek (motorcycle taxi) consumption is almost 64 million, compared to 33.6 million in Indonesia, Vietnam, and Singapore. Motorcycles have become popular in Indonesia, India, Cambodia, Vietnam, and Thailand, with over 7 million motorcycles sold since the 1970s. This development sparked the idea of offering a motorcycle taxi in early 2010 via the Gojek application. Today, over 50 cities in Indonesia, including Vietnam and Thailand, utilise it. The traffic congestion crisis and rising public service fares have also affected Malaysia. In early 2019, the initial proposal to expand Gojek in Malaysia sparked controversy, but it faced delays due to various factors. While some individuals praise Gojek for its practicality, the problem of Islamic law and public perception in Malaysia remains unresolved. Academic studies explicitly addressing the Gojek issue are scarce and often focus on the legal implications of having ajnabiyah women in the vehicle, a practice perceived as disrespectful, incompatible with Malaysian customs, and potentially defamatory. The perspective pertains to the social situations that arise during the ride. It's important to note that this restriction is not absolute. With creativity and modern innovation, it is not possible for the motor industry to produce a specific type of motorcycle that meets Islamic standards. This qualitative study explains the riding situations in accordance with syarak and presents several preliminary proposals as a solution to this problem. The motor industry can use this study's formula as a basis to design motorcycles suitable for motorcycle taxis. The government can also set guidelines that are in line with syara’ to preserve the maqasid of sharia. |
