Abstract

The issue of child custody (Hadhanah) following divorce in Indonesia remains a critical legal concern, particularly in ensuring children's welfare. Indonesian regulations, including Law No. 1 of 1974 and the Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI), govern custody based on the child’s age and impose an obligation on parents to provide financial support. However, these regulations lack sanctions for parents who neglect their responsibilities, leading to concerns over inadequate care, education, and financial support for children. This study aims to analyze the legal reconstruction of Hadhanah rights from the Maqashid Syari’ah perspective to ensure better child protection. The research employs a library research methodology, examining various legal sources, scholarly works, and judicial decisions to assess the existing legal framework and its implementation in judicial practice. The findings reveal that Indonesian courts typically grant custody to the mother for children who have not yet reached the age of discernment (mumayyiz), following normative legal provisions. However, some judges decide contra legem, prioritizing the child’s best interests based on Maqashid Syari’ah. For example, the Padang High Religious Court granted custody to the father, considering the child's welfare. Enforcement of custody decisions involves forcibly placing the child with the designated guardian, while financial support enforcement is executed through asset seizure from non-compliant parents. To enhance child protection, legal reconstruction is necessary through regulatory reforms and judicial discretion. Revisions should include the introduction of sanctions for negligent parents and the establishment of specialized institutions for child welfare. Judicial reform should provide equal custody opportunities for both parents while prioritizing the child's best interests in alignment with Maqashid Syari’ah principles.

Abstract

This study examines the conceptual differences between default and unlawful acts in Book III of the Civil Code and reconstructs both concepts in the context of Indonesian civil law. In addition, this study analyzes the perspective of Islamic law on the reconstruction carried out. The method used is normative legal research with a statute approach and a conceptual approach. The results of the study indicate that default and unlawful acts have fundamental differences, where default arises due to a violation of an agreement, while unlawful acts are based on a violation of rights or legal norms. Book III of the Civil Code has provided a clear legal framework related to these two concepts, although in practice it still needs to be strengthened in implementation and adaptation to social developments. The reconstruction carried out in this study confirms that Indonesian civil law continues to develop in accordance with the dynamics of society. From an Islamic legal perspective, the principles of justice, individual responsibility, and good faith in transactions have strong relevance in understanding default and unlawful acts. This study contributes to the development of civil law theory and practice in Indonesia and enriches the study of Islamic law in the context of modern civil law.
