Abstract
This paper deals with the role of muṣālaḥah in conflict resolution among Muslim societies using a historical approach. From a historical analysis it is concluded that the concept of ṣulḥ and muṣālaḥah have predated Islam, and played a vital role in resolving disputes and conflicts among clans in pre-Islam Arab societies. In the period of Islam, as in the case of Fatḥ Makkah (winning over Mecca) and Ṣulḥ al-Ḥudaybiyyah (peace treaty at Ḥudaybiyyah). In resolving conflicts, there are principles employed by the Prophet Muḥammad, such as tolerance, nonviolence, patience, forgiveness, peace, harmony and mercy.
