Abstract

Islamic inheritance law is stigmatized due to its rigidity and conservativity. The rigidity and conservatism of Islamic inheritance can be seen in the view that Islamic inheritance rules cannot be changed or modified. In addition, the assumption of Islamic inheritance rules does not consider the social developments that occur over time. This research aims to explore how Islamic inheritance law is applied in Indonesia and how contextualization is carried out in response to existing stigma. This research employs a qualitative study with a normative juridical approach. The research data is derived from documents and texts on Islamic inheritance law and concrete cases of contextualization of Islamic inheritance law in Indonesia in different situations and contexts. The data are analyzed using descriptive interpretative techniques with the application of Amina Wadud's hermeneutics of tauhid. The research findings indicate that Islamic inheritance law in Indonesia has undergone contextualization, thus negating the negative stigma attached to Islamic inheritance. Contextualization is achieved by understanding and advocating Islamic inheritance law in the Indonesian context, reconstructing the basic concepts of Islamic inheritance law according to the Indonesian context, and promoting the resolution of inheritance conflicts through consultation and mediation. This research offers a model of inheritance division applied in Indonesia that is contextual and flexible based on Amina Wadud's hermeneutics of tauhid.

Abstract

This study is motivated by the persistent gap between the constitutional recognition of indigenous belief adherents following Constitutional Court Decision No. 97/PUU-XIV/2016 and the actual administrative practices in Blora Regency, particularly regarding the marriage registration of the Samin community. This research aims to analyze the forms of legal protection, policy implementation, and the structural, substantive, and cultural barriers affecting the marriage registration of Samin Indigenous Faith Adherents. Using a qualitative approach and Lawrence M. Friedman’s legal system theory, data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation, and analyzed using descriptive qualitative techniques. The findings reveal that although legal instruments such as Constitutional Court Decision No. 97/PUU-XIV/2016 and Government Regulation No. 40/2019 formally acknowledge indigenous believers, implementation at the local level remains constrained by administrative unpreparedness, limited public outreach, bureaucratic complexity, and low legal awareness. The practice of listing Islam on identity cards (KTP) has become a pragmatic strategy for administrative convenience, but it hinders the community’s ability to register marriages as indigenous belief adherents. The imbalance among legal structure, legal substance, and legal culture results in ineffective legal protection. This study concludes that systemic reforms are required, including capacity-building for local officials, the establishment of standardized procedures for marriage registration, the development of supportive local regulations, and more inclusive legal education and outreach programs. These recommendations are expected to ensure equal and culturally respectful marriage registration services for the Samin community.

Abstract

Purpose - This study examines the urgency of reforming mediation regulations in Islamic family law disputes in Indonesian religious courts to be more responsive, in line with Islamic values and contemporary legal needs. The current mediation framework is often criticized for its rigidity, legal uncertainty, and procedural inefficiency, which hinder the timely resolution of disputes and limit access to justice. Methods - This study uses a normative legal research method with a legislative approach analysis. Primary and secondary legal materials were collected using a document study method, and these legal materials were then grouped and analyzed according to the formulation of each issue. Findings - The research identifies major regulatory shortcomings, including the weak enforceability of mediated agreements, inadequate mediator qualifications, and the absence of institutional support to encourage mediation. These issues contribute to prolonged litigation and discourage parties from choosing mediation. Reform is needed to establish a more flexible, transparent, and enforceable mediation system that upholds both procedural justice and Islamic legal principles. Research Limitations: This study is limited by its focus on analyzing regulations related to mediation that apply in Indonesia. Originality/Value: The study offers a conceptual framework for reconstructing mediation regulation by bridging Islamic jurisprudence with modern legal mechanisms.

Abstract

Abstracts: This study examines the implementation of restorative justice through the mechanism of penal mediation within Indonesia's criminal justice system, using John Rawls’ theory of justice as a theoretical framework. The research is grounded in the need for a more humane, participatory, and efficient alternative for resolving minor criminal offenses, as opposed to the conventional retributive justice system. This is a normative legal study employing both statutory and conceptual approaches. The data sources consist of primary and secondary legal materials obtained through literature review. The findings reveal that penal mediation has been applied in cases such as petty theft, defamation, and domestic violence, involving offenders, victims, families, and the community in the restorative process. This implementation reflects Rawls’ principles of justice particularly the equal basic liberties and the difference principle—in protecting vulnerable groups such as juvenile offenders and first-time offenders. In conclusion, penal mediation aligns not only with restorative justice values and the Islamic legal concept of maslahah, but also embodies a substantive model of justice that is inclusive and responsive to local values. Therefore, this approach deserves to be formally institutionalized within the national criminal law system.Keywords: Penal mediation, restorative justice, John Rawls’ theory of justice, Indonesian criminal law, non-litigation resolution.Abstrak : Penelitian ini mengkaji penerapan keadilan restoratif melalui mekanisme mediasi penal dalam sistem peradilan pidana Indonesia, dengan menggunakan perspektif teori keadilan John Rawls. Latar belakang penelitian ini berangkat dari kebutuhan untuk menghadirkan alternatif penyelesaian perkara pidana ringan yang lebih manusiawi, partisipatif, dan efisien dibandingkan sistem peradilan konvensional yang cenderung retributif. Penelitian ini merupakan studi hukum normatif dengan pendekatan perundang-undangan dan pendekatan konseptual. Sumber data diperoleh dari bahan hukum primer dan sekunder melalui studi kepustakaan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa mediasi penal telah diterapkan dalam sejumlah kasus seperti pencurian ringan, penghinaan, dan kekerasan rumah tangga, dengan melibatkan pelaku, korban, keluarga, dan masyarakat dalam proses pemulihan. Implementasi ini mencerminkan prinsip keadilan Rawls, yaitu kebebasan dasar yang setara dan prinsip perbedaan, khususnya dalam melindungi pelaku dari kelompok rentan seperti anak dan pelaku pertama. Kesimpulannya, mediasi penal bukan hanya sejalan dengan nilai-nilai keadilan restoratif dan maslahah dalam hukum Islam, tetapi juga mencerminkan prinsip keadilan substantif yang inklusif dan adaptif terhadap nilai lokal. Oleh karena itu, pendekatan ini layak untuk dilembagakan secara normatif dalam sistem hukum pidana nasional.Kata kunci: Mediasi penal, keadilan restoratif, teori keadilan John Rawls, hukum pidana Indonesia, penyelesaian non-litigasi.

Abstract

The Compilation of Islamic Law in Indonesia gives the impression of marginalizing wives and does not regulate the possibility of nusyuz committed by husbands. The existing nusyuz norms in Indonesia still reflect gender dominance, which is contrary to the principles of justice and equality increasingly emphasized in modern society. This research seeks to address the legal gap by reconstructing the nusyuz norms in Articles 80, 84, and 149 of the Compilation of Islamic Law, drawing on the concept of Qiraah Mubadalah and John Rawls's theory of justice. This study employs legal research using legislative, historical, conceptual, case, and comparative approaches, with qualitative methods for analyzing legal materials. The findings reveal that the current nusyuz norms in the Compilation of Islamic Law still contain patriarchal bias and fail to fully realize the principle of relational justice. From the perspective of Qiraah Mubadalah, both husbands and wives have the potential to commit nusyuz, thus requiring fair legal treatment. The reconstruction of these norms should affirm the importance of reciprocity (mubadalah) in marital relationships, in which husbands and wives are not positioned hierarchically but as equal partners who fairly fulfill each other’s rights and obligations. Meanwhile, Rawls’s theory of justice suggests that legal norms should be drafted without gender bias, ensuring justice for all parties, particularly those in vulnerable positions. Therefore, the reconstructed nusyuz norms must recognize the mutual rights and obligations of both husband and wife in a fair and equal manner.

Abstract

Supreme Court Circular Letter No. 2 of 2023, which prohibits interfaith marriage in Indonesia, continues to generate constitutional and legal debate. Opposition is largely based on universal human rights arguments, while support emphasizes religious and moral values. This study examines the ratio legis of the prohibition within the framework of Indonesia’s Staatsfundamentalnorm. Using normative legal research with statutory, philosophical, and case-based approaches, the study finds that both doctrinal-deductive and non-doctrinal (pragmatic)-inductive reasoning support the interpretation that the prohibition aims to protect the right to religious observance and implement the first principle of Pancasila as a constitutional value. At the same time, the regulation reflects an ongoing tension between the protection of religious values and the recognition of universal human rights in Indonesia’s pluralistic legal system. The implementation of the prohibition is hindered by several legal lacunae, including regulatory disharmony, ambiguity regarding marriages conducted abroad, the use of legal circumvention strategies, and the persistence of unregistered (siri) marriages. To strengthen legal certainty and governance of diversity, this study proposes: (1) statutory regulation of interfaith marriage prohibitions that accommodates religious and cultural considerations; (2) harmonization of related regulations; (3) application of the nationality principle; (4) marriage annulment based on apostasy; and (5) prohibition of siri marriages accompanied by punitive sanctions. These measures are intended to enhance legal certainty, protect rights, and improve the management of diversity within Indonesia’s multicultural legal system through stronger institutions and greater public legal awareness.
