Abstract

Digital participation and active involvement of civil society are important elements in organizing ideal and democratic elections. Digital technology opens up new spaces for the public to participate in the election process, either through social media, digital platforms, or special applications designed to monitor and ensure transparency and accountability of elections. The research method used is normative juridical, with a legislative, conceptual, and comparative approach. The legislative approach is used to examine regulations and policies related to digital participation in elections, while the conceptual approach is used to understand the concept of digital participation and the role of civil society. The comparative approach is used to compare digital participation practices in elections in various countries, in order to gain a broader understanding of the effectiveness of the strategies implemented. The results of the discussion show that digital participation has great potential in increasing civil society involvement, but there are still significant challenges, such as low digital literacy, the risk of spreading misinformation, and limited access to technology. Clear and systematic regulations are needed to support digital participation effectively and prevent misuse that can damage the integrity of elections. In conclusion, digital participation is an important means to increase public involvement in organizing ideal elections, but it needs to be accompanied by supportive policies and adequate public education. The suggestion from this research is to strengthen regulations on the use of technology in elections, increase public digital literacy, and encourage innovation in safe and transparent digital platforms for election participation.

Abstract

This paper examines the transformation of zina in the digital era and its implications for the enforcement of Islamic criminal law. The background of the study is rooted in the emergence of technology-mediated sexual practices such as sexting, cybersex, and the online dissemination of intimate content that challenge the classical fiqh conception of zina as a physical act subject to strict ḥudūd evidentiary standards. Using a qualitative normative-empirical research method, the study analyzes classical fiqh sources, contemporary legal literature, and documented digital practices. The research stages include problem identification, literature review, data collection on digital behaviors, analysis through maqāṣid al-sharīʿah and ijtihād frameworks, and synthesis of findings. The results show a significant juridical gap between traditional evidentiary mechanisms and digitally mediated sexual misconduct, compounded by issues of digital evidence reliability, jurisdiction, and privacy protection. The discussion highlights both the enduring relevance and structural limitations of classical evidentiary paradigms, underscoring the need for adaptive, multidimensional legal approaches within Islamic criminal law.
