This study aims to analyze the legal aspects of the staple food arisan system implemented in Bangun Rejo Village, Tanjung Morawa District, and how the Al-Maslahah perspective as one of the theories of Islamic legal determination applies to the staple food arisan practice. Staple food arisan is a socio-economic activity often carried out by the community with the aim of helping to meet basic needs affordably, although in its implementation it can give rise to potential legal issues related to the discrepancy between the value of goods, clarity of contracts, price changes, and its management system. This study was conducted using an empirical juridical method, namely one that examines based on field data through interviews or observations and supported by related legal literature. The approach used is a sociological approach and a conceptual approach. The results of this study indicate that the staple food arisan practice in Bangun Rejo Village provides considerable benefits to the community, such as making it easier for people to meet basic needs and can foster a sense of togetherness among fellow human beings. However, from an Islamic legal perspective, this practice must be given more attention, especially in determining the contract which must be clear, equal in price value, and avoid elements that have the potential to cause uncertainty and loss. Thus, the principle of Al-Maslahah can be used as a basis for improving the basic food arisan system so that it can continue to provide benefits in accordance with Islamic principles.
