Abstract

Indonesian legislation stipulates that individuals from foreign countries residing in Indonesia and foreign legal entities with representatives in the country are expressly barred from possessing land. This provision poses challenges for individuals in marriages involving different nationalities, particularly when one spouse is an Indonesian citizen, as it complicates the process of acquiring ownership rights and building usage rights for a property. This research explores the legal regulations pertaining to marital property in marriages involving individuals of distinct nationalities, navigating the intersection between national law and Islamic law. Employing qualitative research methods with a normative approach, the study relies on legal materials as primary data sources. The findings of this study indicate that, in accordance with national law, assets acquired during the course of marriage are deemed joint property. Nonetheless, it is noteworthy that this provision does not extend to marital assets in the form of land and buildings for foreign spouses. Conversely, Islamic law does not explicitly delve into this matter. Nevertheless, it delineates that the resolution of joint property in marriages encompassing individuals of diverse nationalities is governed by national laws pertaining to citizenship rights. In the case of foreign citizens, the relevant statute is the Agrarian Law, which specifically governs ownership rights concerning land and buildings.

Abstract

This study examines contemporary understandings of Fiqh Siyasah—a branch of Islamic legal thought concerned with governance and political relations—within Islamist movements in post-Reformasi Indonesia. Fiqh Siyasah contains foundational principles that govern the relationship between the state and its citizens, as well as between Muslims and non-Muslims. Despite its significance, Fiqh Siyasah has seen limited application in the modern era, particularly after the imposition of Western legal systems during the colonial period. The research explores how post-colonial Islamist groups interpret legal provisions within Fiqh Siyasah, with a specific focus on doctrines related to war (harb) and peace (sulh). This focus is especially relevant given recurring societal tensions triggered by demands for the implementation of Sharia law by certain Islamic groups. Utilizing a qualitative methodology and a process tracing approach, the study finds that Muslim interpretations of Qur’anic verses pertaining to conflict and relations with non-Muslims are diverse and often context-dependent. While many Islamist groups share a common ideological aim of establishing Sharia law, their strategies and theological positions vary significantly. Not all are radical in orientation, and not all radical organizations adhere to the doctrine of dividing the world into dār al-Islām (abode of Islam) and dār al-harb (abode of war). These findings highlight the complexity and internal plurality of contemporary Islamic political thought in Indonesia.
