Abstract

The law is no longer merely obeyed as a sacred text, but is reproduced as an arena of social dialectics steeped in interests, power and cultural compromise. This study aims to comprehensively analyse the process of negotiating Islamic law within the social practices of Indonesia’s multicultural society, and to identify the factors influencing these dynamics. This study employs a qualitative approach with an interpretative socio-legal design to understand Islamic law as a social practice shaped through the interaction between norms, interests, power relations and cultural contexts. The findings indicate that Islamic law can no longer be understood solely as an autonomous normative system, but rather as a social arena that is constantly undergoing construction and reconstruction through processes of meaning negotiation, legitimacy contestation, and compromise among stakeholders within a diverse society. This finding shifts the legal perspective from a textual orientation towards an understanding that positions law as a dynamic social process actively produced by various actors with diverse interests. The novelty of this study lies in its assertion that legal pluralism not only reflects the coexistence of various legal systems but also constitutes a space for the ongoing production of legitimacy. Consequently, the development of legal practice and policy must be directed towards a more dialogical, adaptive and inclusive approach, recognising the diversity of interpretations as an integral part of strengthening the legitimacy of the law within a multicultural society.

Abstract

This study examines digital media practices among Muslim families in Yogyakarta through the perspectives of maṣlaḥah and Sadd al-dharā’iʿ in maintaining the quality of family interaction in the digital era. Employing a qualitative case study approach, the research involved five Muslim families who actively utilize digital media in their daily lives. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation, and analyzed thematically to explore how families benefit from digital media while managing its potential risks. The findings reveal that digital media is not understood dichotomously as either entirely beneficial or harmful, but rather as a practice continuously negotiated within family life. Maṣlaḥah is reflected in the use of digital media to sustain communication, support educational activities, and strengthen religious engagement. Meanwhile, Sadd al-dharā’iʿ is manifested through situational forms of regulation, including screen-time management, parental guidance, content supervision, and the development of digital communication ethics within the family. The study further finds that the relationship between maṣlaḥah and Sadd al-dharā’iʿ does not constitute a fixed balance; instead, it is better understood as a dynamic spectrum in which each family occupies a different position according to its experiences, priorities, and social context. Therefore, a sakinah family in the digital era is not defined as an idealized harmonious condition, but rather as the family’s capacity to manage relationships adaptively amidst the opportunities and risks of digital media use.
