Abstract

This study examines the Marriage is Scary phenomenon among young generations in Medan City, characterized by increasing fear of marriage driven by economic concerns, family trauma, and social media influence, and analyzes it from the perspective of Islamic Family Law. Using a qualitative field research approach through interviews, observations, and documentation involving young adults and officials at the Office of Religious Affairs (KUA) Medan, the study reveals that this trend reflects low legal awareness and a weakened understanding of Islamic values related to marriage, thereby contradicting the maqāshid al-sharī‘ah, particularly ḥifẓ al-nasl and ḥifẓ al-‘ird. Although KUA Medan has responded through premarital counseling and digital education initiatives, their effectiveness remains limited due to low youth participation and a lack of innovative material. The study concludes that strengthening legal awareness, applying progressive legal approaches, and internalizing maqāshid-oriented education are essential to shaping positive perceptions of marriage among young Muslims.

Abstract

This study aims to understand the portrayal of the Jaran Kepang game and the perspectives of Islamic law and positive law on parents who facilitate their children playing Jaran Kepang in Sei Rotan Village. The research method employed is empirical research, which examines applicable legal provisions and the realities in Sei Rotan Village, Percut Sei Tuan Subdistrict, Deli Serdang Regency. The primary data for this research consists of observations and interviews with children who play Jaran Kepang, parents of Jaran Kepang players, the community of Sei Rotan Village, Jaran Kepang experts, and leaders/members of the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) North Sumatra. Secondary data sources include primary legal materials such as Law Number 35 of 2014 concerning Child Protection, and secondary legal materials obtained from literature review comprising books, journals, articles, internet searches, and research findings. The results indicate that some parents in Sei Rotan Village facilitate their children playing Jaran Kepang, as evidenced by interviews with the community and observations. The legal consequences for parents facilitating their children playing Jaran Kepang, according to Islamic law, are considered haram due to the game's association with polytheism. Under Law Number 35 of 2014 concerning Child Protection, the legal consequence is the potential revocation of custody rights for parents who facilitate their children playing Jaran Kepang.

Abstract

Land is essential for human life, serving as a base for agriculture, housing, and economic activities. In Indonesia, land management and ownership are regulated to benefit both individuals and the community. Conflicts, however, can arise when private land use negatively impacts neighboring areas, as seen in Runding village. Here, a farmer's decision to plant oil palm upstream in Negung village has caused water scarcity for downstream farmers, leading to crop failures. Article 20 of Indonesia's Basic Agrarian Law (UUPA), as explained by Ali Ahmad Chomzah, emphasizes that land ownership rights carry a social function and must not harm others. Land use should adapt to its circumstances and respect community welfare. This aligns with the concept of Maslahah Mursalah in Islamic law, which considers public interest and welfare, derived from the broader goals of Sharia. In Runding village, such restrictions aim to balance individual land use with community welfare, reflecting the principles of public and individual welfare. This research aims to explore the regulatory framework of land ownership rights and how Maslahah Mursalah can guide the management of privately owned land. Using empirical legal research with a case study, statute, and conceptual approach, this study seeks to understand how land management restrictions can ensure both individual rights and societal welfare. The research highlights the potential to balance private land rights with social responsibilities, contributing to sustainable land management practices that align with legal and ethical principles, fostering harmony between landowners and the community.
