Abstract

The article aims to describe the religious views of Indonesian Muslim groups concerning Covid-19 and health protocols. It also explores the factors that lead some Muslims to reject health protocols in their religious practices. The qualitative method was employed in this study, with research subjects selected through purposive sampling, and data were analyzed using descriptive analysis. The informants included leaders of Indonesian Muslim groups, such as Muhammadiyah, Nahdlatul Ulama, and other Muslim group leaders. The research findings indicate that most Muslim group leaders interpret Islamic teachings with academic perspectives, although many tend to adopt conservative interpretations. This conservative religious understanding is influenced by several factors: first, the psychological factor of panic or cultural shock among some Muslims; second, the influx of information on social media whose accuracy is challenging to verify; third, economic pressure on the people; and fourth, the government’s indecisiveness and the ineffectiveness of public communication.

Abstract

Abstract:In recent decades, there has been a massive influx of Indonesian migrant workers or TKI (Tenaga Kerja Indonesia) in Malaysia, both legally and illegally. Unfortunately, both the legal and illegal migrant workers faced unofficial (sirri) marriage problems and their children. This study will analyze the legalization process for the Indonesian migrant worker marriage in Malaysia. The research was done in the region of Peninsular Malaysia, using qualitative research method. The result shows that the legalization process faced some obstacles such as; (1) Malaysian regulation which forbid marriage while under working contract for migrant workers; (2) The difficulty to fulfill the requirements for itsbat nikah (legalizing marriage) because of the distance factor to the Indonesian embassy, hard to get the leaving permit from the employer, and the strict administration for the itsbat nikah program such as the requirements of reference that the applicant has not been married yet in their place of  origin. The sirri marriage that is performed by TKI in Malaysia caused many problems such as the one regarding the status of their children’s nationality.  They cannot be documented by giving them birth certificates, passport, and other documents. Also, their rights are unprotected by the law. This study will have implications on Indonesian government’s policy regarding the protection of TKI’s rights and his family.Keywords: Sirri Marriage, children status, Indonesian migrant workers, itsbat nikah Abstrak:Dalam beberapa dekade terakhir, telah terjadi gelombang besar pekerja migran Indonesia atau TKI (Tenaga Kerja Indonesia) di Malaysia, baik secara legal maupun ilegal. Sayangnya, baik pekerja migran legal maupun ilegal menghadapi masalah perkawinan tidak resmi (sirri) dan anak-anak mereka. Studi ini akan menganalisis proses legalisasi perkawinan pekerja migran Indonesia di Malaysia. Penelitian ini dilakukan di wilayah Semenanjung Malaysia, menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa proses legalisasi menghadapi beberapa kendala seperti; (1) Peraturan Malaysia yang melarang pernikahan saat berada di bawah kontrak kerja untuk pekerja migran; (2) Kesulitan untuk memenuhi persyaratan untuk itsbat nikah (melegalkan pernikahan) karena faktor jarak ke kedutaan Indonesia, sulit untuk mendapatkan izin cuti dari majikan, dan administrasi yang ketat untuk program itsbat nikah seperti persyaratan referensi bahwa pelamar belum menikah di tempat asal mereka. Pernikahan sirri yang dilakukan oleh TKI di Malaysia menyebabkan banyak masalah seperti yang menyangkut status kewarganegaraan anak-anak mereka. Mereka tidak dapat didokumentasikan dengan memberi mereka akta kelahiran, paspor, dan dokumen lainnya. Juga, hak-hak mereka tidak dilindungi oleh hukum. Studi ini akan memiliki implikasi pada kebijakan pemerintah Indonesia mengenai perlindungan hak TKI dan keluarganya.Kata Kunci: Pernikahan Sirri, status anak, pekerja migran Indonesia, itsbat nikah Аннотация:В последние десятилетия в Малайзии наблюдался массовый приток индонезийских рабочих-мигрантов или TKI (Tenaga Kerja Indonesia -  Индонезийские рабочие) как легально, так и нелегально. К сожалению, как легальные, так и нелегальные трудящиеся-мигранты столкнулись с неофициальными (Sirri) проблемами в браке и со своими детьми. В этом исследовании будет проанализирован процесс легализации индонезийских браков трудящихся-мигрантов в Малайзии. Исследование проводилось в районе полуострова Малайзия с использованием качественного метода исследования. Результат показывает, что процесс легализации столкнулся с некоторыми препятствиями, такими как; (1) Малазийское регулирование, которое запрещает вступление в брак при заключении трудового договора с трудящимися-мигрантами; (2) Трудность выполнения требований для ее бат-никах (легализация брака) из-за фактора расстояния до посольства Индонезии, трудностей с получением разрешения на отпуск от работодателя и строгого администрирования программы итбат-никах, таких как требования упоминание о том, что заявитель еще не состоял в браке по месту своего происхождения. Брак (Sirri), заключенный (TKI – индонезийские рабочие) в Малайзии, вызвал много проблем, например, в отношении статуса гражданства их детей. Они не могут быть задокументированы путем предоставления им свидетельства о рождении, паспорта и других документов. Кроме того, их права не защищены законом. Это исследование будет иметь последствия для политики правительства Индонезии в отношении защиты прав (TKI – индонезийские рабочие) и его семьи.Ключевые Слова: брак (Sirri), статус детей, индонезийские трудовые мигранты, итбат никах

Abstract

This study examines the complex relationship between sharia and constitutionalism in three Muslim-majority countries: Indonesia, Türkiye, and Saudi Arabia. Despite their majority Muslim population, these countries have adopted divergent approaches in integrating—or delimiting—the role of sharia within their constitutional frameworks. Drawing on interviews with legal and political scholars from each country, the research employs a comparative political-constitutional approach to analyze the dynamics of sharia constitutionalism across these distinct contexts. The findings reveal varying degrees of constitutional accommodation of sharia. Indonesia exemplifies a model of religious constitutionalism, where Islamic principles are acknowledged but not formally codified within the constitutional text. Türkiye represents a paradigm of secular constitutionalism that distinctly separates religion and state, excluding sharia from the constitutional and legal order. In contrast, Saudi Arabia exhibits a puritan constitutionalism, whereby the Quran and Hadith constitute the primary sources of constitutional authority. These contrasting models illuminate broader ideological and institutional orientations: Saudi Arabia grounds its constitutional identity in religion, Indonesia integrates certain religious principles within a pluralistic framework, and Türkiye maintains a secularist stance that confines religion to the private sphere.

Abstract

This article examines the radical transformation of the Saudi Arabian legal system under Vision 2030, marking a fundamental shift from the supremacy of traditional judicial interpretation to the codification of state positive law. The analysis focuses on Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s (MBS) epistemological maneuver to limit the authority of "Ahad Hadith" (single-narrator reports) in the public sphere, mandating that state law rely exclusively on the Qur'an and Mutawatir Hadith. Using a juridical-normative approach and critical discourse analysis, this study tests the consistency of this doctrine within recent legislative packages, specifically the Personal Status Law, the Civil Transactions Law, and Evidence Law. The study covers a methodological inconsistency that the state rejects Ahad Hadith in economic matters to ensure investment certainty but retains them in socio-familial issues to maintain patriarchal stability. Consequently, this article concludes that Saudi legal reform is not a pure theological purification but a "pragmatic legal hybridity" which epistemologically lacks a strong academic basis. The claim of relying solely on Mutawatir Hadith serves as a discursive strategy for the "nationalization of Sharia," effectively reducing the role of clerics and judges from autonomous interpreters of divine law to bureaucratic executors of state statutes, serving political stability and global economic interests.

Abstract

Public information disclosure in Indonesia’s State Islamic Universities (Perguruan Tinggi Keagamaan Islam Negeri/PTKIN) remains largely ceremonial despite the binding mandate of Law Number 14 of 2008 on Public Information Disclosure (UU Keterbukaan Informasi Publik/UU KIP). This socio-legal study investigates the legal, structural, and cultural factors driving the persistent gap between legal obligations and operational practices within PTKIN. Employing a qualitative socio-legal approach, this study combines primary data from in-depth interviews across seven PTKINs in Java and West Nusa Tenggara with secondary regulatory analyses, framed through institutional decoupling and isomorphism. The findings identify three primary systemic barriers: structural ambivalence stemming from conflating the Information and Documentation Management Officer (Pejabat Pengelola Informasi dan Dokumentasi/PPID) role with Public Relations units; a transactional compliance mindset due to decoupled accreditation/remuneration incentives; and cultural resistance rooted in bureaucratic paternalism. The study concludes that achieving substantive legal accountability requires embedding measurable transparency metrics directly into university accreditation frameworks, financial remuneration models, and internal supervisory mandates.

Abstract

The development of Islamic financial technology requires ḥadīth norms originating in pre-digital contexts to be applied to increasingly complex transactions. This study examines the patterns, methodological transparency, and juridical adequacy of ḥadīth-based reasoning in DSN-MUI Fatwas Nos. 116/2017, 117/2018, and 140/2021. Employing a qualitative socio-legal approach, the study combines content analysis of fatwas with semi-structured interviews with DSN-MUI members, Sharia Supervisory Board members, and Islamic fintech practitioners. The findings reveal that ḥadīth mobilization is principle-based, contract-sensitive, and functionally layered, operating as prohibitive evidence, contractual legitimation, and ethical-regulatory reinforcement. Prohibitive reasoning is more readily traceable than the interpretive processes that make novel digital transactions permissible. This compression of legal reasoning is conceptualized as normative telescoping. At the same time, epistemic traceability measures how well one can reconstruct the relationship between ḥadīth and digital rulings. The study recommends a methodological appendix documenting the relevant evidence, takyīf fiqhī, operative ʿillah, method of legal extension, maqāṣid, and implementation responsibilities to enhance the transparency and adaptability of Islamic fintech fatwas.
