Abstract

Mahr (dowry) serves as a fundamental institution in Islamic marriage law and represents a legally recognized economic right of women, grounded in Qur’anic injunctions and Islamic Law. Despite sharing a common normative foundation, the regulation and practical enforcement of mahr vary considerably across Muslim societies, particularly those characterized by legal pluralism and differing levels of state codification. This article examines mahr as a women’s right within Islamic family law through a normative-comparative analysis of Nigeria and Indonesia. Employing doctrinal legal research and a comparative law approach, the study analyzes the concept of mahr in Islamic jurisprudence and its regulation within the respective Islamic family law frameworks of both countries. The findings reveal that both Nigeria and Indonesia recognize mahr as a mandatory obligation of the husband and the exclusive proprietary right of the wife. However, significant divergences emerge in terms of regulatory structure, institutional enforcement, and legal certainty. In Nigeria, Islamic family law operates within a plural legal system where Islamic law—predominantly influenced by the Maliki school—coexists with customary and statutory laws, resulting in fragmented enforcement and uneven protection of women’s mahr rights. By contrast, Indonesia has incorporated Islamic family law into a more unified statutory framework through Law No. 1 of 1974 on Marriage and the Compilation of Islamic Law, supported by the jurisdiction of Religious Courts, thereby providing relatively clearer mechanisms for legal enforcement, notwithstanding ongoing challenges related to customary practices and implementation. This comparative analysis demonstrates that legal codification, institutional coherence, and state involvement play a crucial role in enhancing legal certainty and strengthening the protection of women’s economic rights in marriage.

Abstract

This study examines the normative foundations of the Qur’an, fiqh al-bi’ah, and maqasid al-shari’ah as a basis for preventing destructive practices in Mandailing Natal (Madina) and evaluating the integration of Islamic norms with technical policies and remedial actions. This study uses a normative research method with a hermeneutic and fiqhiyyah approach, through reading the Qur’an and tafsir, as well as analyzing the principles of fiqh al-bi’ah and maqasid al-shari'ah. Data sources include scientific literature, regulations, MUI fatwas, field reports, and media archives, which are analyzed qualitatively-descriptively and triangulated with empirical evidence. The results show that Qur’anic and fiqhiyyah textual arguments affirm the normative obligation to maintain mizan and prevent fasad. Empirical findings confirm mercury pollution from Artisanal and Small-Scale Gold Mining (ASGM), coastal ecosystem degradation due to destructive fishing practices, and river waste accumulation that exacerbates health and livelihood vulnerabilities. This study also identifies gaps in the implementation of national policies at the local level, limited access to mercury-free technology, and weak regional operational regulations, which delay the internalization of ecological awareness. Based on these results, the study recommends strengthening policies based on maqasid al-shari’ah through district fatwa interventions and contextual regional regulations, thematic da'wah for behavioral change, adoption of mercury-free technology substitutes, and sharia financing mechanisms to support remediation and mitigation. This study is limited to normative and textual analysis without field testing, so further empirical research is recommended to assess the effectiveness of implementing Sharia-based ecological policies in Madina.
