<![CDATA[Handling of children as perpetrators of criminal acts cannot be equated with adults. This study aims to examine the application of restorative justice in handling children as perpetrators of criminal acts and the perspective of national criminal law and Islamic criminal law. The type of research conducted is library research with data sourced from primary, secondary and tertiary data sources. The collected data is then analyzed using qualitative data analysis methods.

According to this regulation, children who commit crimes with a threat of less than 7 (seven) years must be resolved using a diversion mechanism. The restorative justice approach is indeed not known in Islamic criminal law, but its principles are identical to the practice of diyat and peace (ishlah) in Islamic criminal law.]]>
