Abstract

Digitalizing religious bureaucracy represents a contemporary manifestation of the state's efforts to achieve public welfare through administrative order. This study aims to analyze the implementation of the Marriage Management Information System (SIMKAH) at the Office of Religious Affairs (KUA) through the lens of Siyasah Dusturiyah (Islamic Constitutional Law). The central question explores how SIMKAH fosters service quality and ensures reliable administrative certainty for prospective brides and grooms. Employing a qualitative method, data were gathered through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation with KUA officials. The findings demonstrate that SIMKAH plays a pivotal role in manifesting administrative professionalism (al-itqan wa al-dhabt al-idari), information transparency as a form of power entrustment (al-shafafiyyah wa al-mas’uliyyah), and accessibility of services (taysir al-khidmah) to guarantee legal certainty (al-yaqin al-qanuni). Consequently, marriage documents are not merely administrative requirements but serve as instruments to protect the public by mitigating data discrepancies and maladministration. SIMKAH is proven to have shifted the KUA service paradigm from traditional-clerical patterns toward modern, accountable, and technocratic governance. This study concludes that the digitalization of marriage registration is a fundamental foundation in strengthening the state's function to protect citizens' rights (hifdz al-huquq) in accordance with the principles of justice in Islamic constitutionalism

Abstract

This study examines the concept of the eternity of the world (qidam al-‘ālam) in the perspective of Muslim philosophers and its critique in Tahafut al-Falasifah by Imam al-Ghazali. The research aims to analyze the differences between al-Farabi and Ibn Sina, who argue that the universe is temporally eternal through the theory of emanation (al-fayḍ), and the Islamic theological view which affirms that the world was created out of nothing (ḥudūṡ al-‘ālam). This study employs a qualitative method with a library research approach, using descriptive-analytical and comparative-critical analysis. The primary source is Tahafut al-Falasifah, supported by relevant secondary literature. The findings indicate that the philosophers conceive the relationship between God and the world as a necessary and eternal causal relation, implying that the universe has no temporal beginning, although it remains ontologically dependent upon God. In contrast, al-Ghazali rejects this necessity and asserts that God is a voluntary agent (fā‘il mukhtār) who creates the world through His free will. This debate has had a significant impact on the development of Islamic theology and philosophy, particularly in defining the respective roles of reason and revelation in addressing metaphysical questions.
