The method used is library research by analyzing historical sources, legal documents, and relevant academic literature. The results show that Islamic judicial institutions in various Nusantara sultanates had diverse structures and authorities, ranging from courts led directly by the sultan, qadhi, to the council of ulama. Major sultanates such as Aceh, Demak, Mataram Islam, Ternate, and Gowa-Tallo had well-established Islamic judicial systems governing various aspects of community life, including civil, criminal, and religious affairs.

This research contributes to the understanding of Islamic legal history in Indonesia as part of the Islamic civilization heritage of the Nusantara.]]>
