<![CDATA[This study analyzes the legal protection for whistleblowers in narcotics criminal cases in Indonesia through the perspective of Islamic Constitutional Law (Siyāsah Shar‘iyyah) and the theory of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah. As an extraordinary crime, narcotics require active public participation, yet whistleblowers often face significant legal and physical risks. This normative legal research uses a statutory and conceptual approach to evaluate Law No. 35 of 2009 on Narcotics, Law No. 31 of 2014 on Witness and Victim Protection, and the 1945 Constitution. The results indicate a normative vacuum and regulatory fragmentation that fail to provide absolute immunity for whistleblowers. From an Islamic perspective, protecting whistleblowers is a constitutional-theological obligation to safeguard the five essential elements (al-darūriyyāt al-khamsah), particularly hifẓ al-nafs (protection of life) and hifẓ al-‘aql (protection of intellect). This study proposes a legal reconstruction that integrates constitutional principles with maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah to ensure comprehensive protection and legal certainty for those reporting narcotics crimes.]]>
