Abstract

This research raised the issue of the judge's consideration in the decision no. 0175/Pdt.G/2012/PA-Bn, regarding the position of the will in the distribution of inheritance. This study used a normative juridical law method, with primary legal material from the Religious Court of Bengkulu decision no. 0175/PDT.G/2012/PA.BN which has permanent legal force, and legal materials in the form of secondary laws, books, fiqh books that were related to the topics to be discussed. After the legal material was obtained, it was then analyzed based on normative descriptive analysis. The results of the study showed that (1) a will must be made by the heirs before the inheritance was divided.
