Abstract

This study aims to explain the roles of the muḥtasib and pageu gampong in enforcing sharia law in Banda Aceh, as well as their respective effectiveness. The study is important because the extensive area covered by sharia law enforcement creates gaps in supervision and enforcement that formal authorities have not yet fully addressed. The research questions focus on the similarities and differences in the authority of these two institutions, and the factors that influence their effectiveness. The study employs a qualitative legal-sociological approach by analyzing institutional practices at the gampong level. The results suggest that muḥtasib and pageu gampong have similar roles involving monitoring, admonishing, and reporting violations of sharia law. However, muḥtasib is limited to these three functions, whereas the pageu gampong also has the authority to resolve customary disputes, particularly minor criminal and civil cases. Pageu gampong is more effective in terms of performance because it stems from the community's collective consciousness, is self-reliant and voluntary, and has a broader membership. Nevertheless, it is not yet widespread, with only twelve villages in Banda Aceh currently having an active pageu gampong.

Abstract

This research is motivated by the high economic contribution of the palm oil plantation sector in Indonesia and Aceh Province, which empirically triggers contemporary legal debate due to the absence of explicit mention of the commodity in classical religious texts. The purpose of this research is to analyze the foundations of contemporary fiqh, compare technical provisions (nishab, haul, and kadar), and examine the theoretical and practical implications of the dualism of fatwa between the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) and the Aceh Ulema Consultative Assembly (MPU). The method used is a normative Islamic legal research with a qualitative approach based on library research through content analysis and comparative analysis techniques. Primary data sources come from MUI Fatwa Number 3 of 2003 and MPU Aceh Fatwa Number 9 of 2013, supported by secondary data in the form of zakat fiqh literature, scientific journals, and official statistical data. The main findings of this research explore the epistemological dialectic between the Shafi'i school of thought approach based on illat al-qut wa al-iddikhar and contextual reasoning based on illat al-nama' wa al-kasb. The theoretical significance of this competing paradigm enriches contemporary Islamic legal studies in reconstructing the dynamic economic functionality of public property. The formulation of a harmonization model for palm oil zakat offers a significant contribution by separating the management of small-scale community palm oil plantations from corporate palm oil. Regular integration of this model into the technical regulations of Baitul Mal Aceh and BAZNAS has the potential to support efforts to bridge differences in the fatwa authority, provide alternative legal certainty for zakat payers, and optimize the sustainable distribution of wealth for mustahik (recipients of zakat).
