This study is a literature review that employs a normative analysis approach to Islamic law in order to investigate the form of consideration for the determination of Islamic law from the perspective of psychological and social women. The results of this study indicate that the process of establishing law in Shari'a does not ignore the benefit (maslahah) of women. In fact, Sharia pays great attention to the special characteristics of women, which are indeed different from those of men. The enactment of Shari'a is inseparable from the condition of human reality, so several considerations in establishing Islamic law always cover the psychological or mental aspects of women. Likewise, the social aspect of women, where the law will be enforced, is also the focus of establishing Islamic law. The consideration of these two aspects has been applied by the texts of both the Qur'an and the Hadith, as well as the  statement of Prophet’s Companions. Consideration of the characteristics of women from a psychological and social perspective has been applied in the texts on divorce and the leadership of the head of the household, the hadith on the prohibition of polygamy for two brothers and the priority of custody for mother, as well as the fatwas of friends such as the dowry law of al-mufawwidah and the status of missing husband's wife (al-mafqūd).
