Religious phenomenology, as a contemporary analytical approach, has opened new horizons in religious studies by focusing on lived experience and the manifestation of the sacred in believers' consciousness. Drawing on conceptual analysis and philosophical argumentation, this article examines the capacities and limitations of the phenomenological method in Islamic lifestyle studies. The central research question concerns the relationship between the phenomenological method and the ijtihād-based method in Islamic lifestyle studies. The findings indicate that religious phenomenology, through its emphasis on such constitutive elements as lived experience, epoché, and the analysis of the mode of manifestation, enables a connection to be established between the sacred text and believers' everyday life. By itself, however, religious phenomenology lacks the juristic and epistemic authority required for the derivation of religious norms. Moreover, the principle of epoché stands in fundamental conflict with commitment to revelation, regarded as a foundational presupposition of religious inquiry in the Islamic tradition, and, in the absence of the guidance of revelation and demonstrative reason, may lead to semantic relativism. Finally, the article proposes a model of guided phenomenology. Within this approach, lived experience is interpreted in the light of revelation, while phenomenology assumes a complementary role alongside the ijtihād-based method.
