Abstract

This study examines the paradigmatic contribution of Prophetic social science to Indonesian law enforcement through the integration of humanization, liberation, and transcendence as the core values of prophetic jurisprudence. The research responds to the persistent dominance of legal positivism in Indonesia, which tends to separate law from ethical and spiritual dimensions, resulting in procedural legalism that often neglects substantive justice and human dignity. Using a normative legal research method with philosophical and conceptual approaches, this study analyzes legislation, legal doctrines, judicial principles, and scholarly works concerning prophetic law and Indonesian legal reform. The findings demonstrate that prophetic jurisprudence offers a transformative legal paradigm grounded in Islamic ethical teachings derived from the Qur’an and Hadith. Humanization is reflected in the development of restorative justice and rehabilitation-oriented correctional systems that prioritize human dignity over retributive punishment. Liberation is manifested through efforts to combat structural injustice, strengthen transparency, and implement digital justice systems aimed at preventing corruption and abuse of power. Transcendence is embodied in the constitutional and philosophical foundations of Indonesian law, particularly through Pancasila and legal norms emphasizing divine accountability and moral consciousness in law enforcement. This study concludes that prophetic jurisprudence provides a comprehensive alternative to positivistic legal frameworks by integrating moral, social, and spiritual dimensions into legal practice. The prophetic paradigm contributes significantly to the development of a more humane, just, and transformative legal system in Indonesia, capable of harmonizing legal certainty with substantive justice and ethical responsibility.
