This study aims to examine the existence of Simalungun customary inheritance law in Rambung Merah Village within the context of Indonesia’s legal pluralism. The research method used is field research with a qualitative phenomenological and socio-empirical approach, focusing on the meaning, perceptions, and practices of the community regarding the customary inheritance system. The results show that the Simalungun customary inheritance law, which was previously normative and binding, has now transformed to become more flexible and consensus-based. This change is driven by community awareness of justice values, especially gender justice, and the development of religious moderation. The Muslim community in Rambung Merah tends to leave the customary system due to its discriminatory nature against women, instead referring to Islamic inheritance law. Meanwhile, the Christian community still allows customary inheritance if implemented through deliberation among heirs. The discussion indicates that Indonesia’s legal pluralism encourages adaptation and compromise models in applying customary inheritance law, making it relevant and in line with social developments and religious values. Thus, Simalungun customary inheritance law has not disappeared but transformed into a conditional alternative that prioritizes substantive justice and family harmony in a multicultural society..

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji eksistensi hukum waris adat Simalungun di Desa Rambung Merah dalam konteks pluralisme hukum nasional Indonesia. Metode yang digunakan adalah penelitian lapangan (field research) dengan pendekatan kualitatif fenomenologis dan empiris-sosiologis, yang memfokuskan pada makna, persepsi, dan praktik masyarakat mengenai sistem kewarisan adat. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa hukum waris adat Simalungun, yang semula bersifat normatif dan mengikat, kini mengalami transformasi menjadi lebih fleksibel dan berbasis kesepakatan. Faktor pendorong perubahan ini adalah kesadaran masyarakat terhadap nilai keadilan, khususnya keadilan gender, serta berkembangnya moderasi beragama. Masyarakat Muslim di Desa Rambung Merah cenderung meninggalkan sistem waris adat karena dianggap diskriminatif terhadap perempuan, dan memilih hukum waris Islam sebagai acuan. Sementara masyarakat Kristen masih membuka peluang penggunaan hukum waris adat, asalkan dilaksanakan melalui musyawarah seluruh ahli waris. Diskusi menunjukkan bahwa pluralisme hukum di Indonesia mendorong munculnya model adaptasi dan kompromi dalam pelaksanaan hukum waris adat, sehingga tetap relevan dan selaras dengan perkembangan sosial serta nilai-nilai agama. Dengan demikian, hukum waris adat Simalungun tidak hilang, tetapi bertransformasi menjadi alternatif kondisional yang mengutamakan keadilan substantif dan harmoni keluarga di tengah masyarakat multikultural.

This research aims to examine the Islamic legal perspective on ariyah (loan of goods) across different schools of thought. The urgency of this study lies in the need to understand the legal foundations of social cooperation, particularly regarding the often-practiced yet underexplored issue of lending items among individuals. The research employs a qualitative, descriptive-analytical method, analyzing primary hadith sources and scholarly opinions from various Islamic legal schools concerning the rules, types, pillars, and liabilities of ariyah. The findings indicate that ariyah is a permissible social contract in Islam, but its legal implications vary across schools, especially concerning the return of borrowed items and responsibility for potential damage

Silver humans, individuals who paint their entire bodies with metallic paint and appear in public spaces to beg, have become a common sight in various major cities in Indonesia. This practice not only poses health risks due to exposure to hazardous chemicals, but also raises social and legal issues. According to Article 504 of the Criminal Code, begging in public places is a criminal offense punishable by imprisonment. However, the positive legal approach focuses more on punishment than rehabilitation. This study aims to analyze the behavior of silver human exploitation from the perspective of Islamic criminal law with a focus on ta'zir sanctions and the principles of maqashid syari'ah. The research method used is a normative approach with qualitative analysis of fiqh literature, maqashid syari'ah, and relevant laws and regulations. The results of the study found that the behavior of silver human exploitation is contrary to the five main objectives of sharia: protecting religion (hifz al-din), life (hijz al-nafs), reason (hifz al-'aql), offspring (hifz al-nasl), and property (hifz al-mal). Therefore, imposing ta'zir sanctions that are educational and rehabilitative in nature is more appropriate for creating public interest than simply imposing imprisonment as stipulated in the Criminal Code. This study emphasizes the importance of synergy between positive law and Islamic criminal law in formulating policies that protect perpetrators while maintaining public order.

The advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has created new opportunities for large-scale data analysis, including data derived from social media. One of its emerging applications is the use of AI to identify potential divorce risks through couples’ digital interaction patterns. This study aims to examine the role of AI in detecting divorce risks based on social media data, while also considering digital ethics and Islamic jurisprudence perspectives. The research employs a qualitative, multidisciplinary approach involving literature review, normative analysis, and Islamic legal studies. The findings suggest that AI can make a positive contribution to divorce prevention efforts and the formulation of social policies. Nevertheless, several ethical challenges must be addressed, including issues of privacy, potential data misuse, and violations of individual rights. From the standpoint of Islamic jurisprudence, the application of this technology must align with key principles of Sharia, such as the prohibition of tajassus (spying), the protection of honor and dignity (ḥifẓ al-‘irḍ), and the pursuit of public benefit (maṣlaḥah). Therefore, integrating AI into socio-religious issues requires a clear ethical and legal framework to ensure conformity with Islamic values and applicable legal norms.

This study examines hadiths related to qisas (retribution for murder and assault), a criminal act involving murder and assault from an Islamic legal perspective. The purpose of this study is to analyze the content of the hadith, its historical context, and its relevance to the application of qisas law. The method used is a literature study with a normative approach, through a review of hadith books and classical and contemporary fiqh literature. The results show that the hadiths on qisas emphasize the principle of justice, balance between the rights of victims and perpetrators, and open up room for forgiveness as an alternative solution. Furthermore, the concept of qisas in the hadith functions not only as a form of punishment but also as a preventive measure to protect human life. Thus, understanding the hadiths on qisas (retribution for murder) is crucial in building a just and welfare-oriented legal system.

This study analyzes the conceptual framework and philosophical foundations of human rights (HAM) through a review of key legal theories. The discussion begins with natural law theory, which argues that human rights are inherent, universal, and derived from transcendental ethical principles as a guide for positive law. As an antithesis, this study presents the theory of legal positivism, which emphasizes that human rights are a formal product of state institutions, where legal validity is separate from moral considerations. Next, this study examines theories of justice, particularly John Rawls's concept of "justice as fairness," to analyze the equitable distribution of rights, obligations, and resources within a social structure. The theoretical analysis concludes with a debate between universalism and cultural relativism. Universalism asserts the global applicability of human rights to every individual, while cultural relativism emphasizes the importance of social context, traditions, and local values. By synthesizing these perspectives, this study concludes that a thorough understanding of these theories is crucial for implementing human rights globally while maintaining sensitivity to the diversity of global contexts.

Islamic law is a legal system derived from revelation and has unique characteristics that distinguish it from other legal systems. This study aims to analyze the basic principles and fundamental rules of Islamic law that serve as the basis for establishing and implementing law. The method used is qualitative research with a normative approach through a review of classical and contemporary literature. The results of the study indicate that the basic principles of Islamic law include justice (al-'adl), benefit (al-maslahah), legal certainty, and flexibility in responding to developments. Meanwhile, the rules of Islamic jurisprudence such as al-umur bi maqaṣidiha, al-ḍarar yuzal, al-yaqin la yazulu bi al-shakk, al-mashaqqah tajlib al-taysir, and al-'adah muḥakkamah play an important role in building a systematic and applicable legal framework. These principles and rules serve not only as guidelines for legal istinbaṭ but also as instruments for addressing contemporary legal issues contextually. Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of the basic principles and rules of Islamic law is crucial for realizing laws that are just, relevant, and responsive to societal dynamics.

This study aims to examine the Theory of Limitations proposed by Muhammad Syahrur as an effort to reform Islamic law in facing the dynamics of modern society. This theory offers an interpretive approach that emphasizes the existence of minimum limits (hadd al-adna) and maximum limits (hadd al-a'la) in determining law, thus allowing flexibility in the application of sharia without deviating from the basic principles of the Qur'an. The research method used is a literature study with a qualitative approach, through an analysis of the works of Syahrur and literature related to contemporary Islamic legal thought. The results of the study indicate that the Theory of Limitations makes a significant contribution to the development of a more contextual and adaptive ijtihad methodology to social change. In addition, this theory also opens up space for a reinterpretation of Islamic law that is more responsive to modern issues such as social justice, gender equality, and human rights. Thus, the Theory of Limitations can be seen as an alternative in Islamic legal reform that seeks to bridge the gap between normative texts and empirical reality, without ignoring the fundamental values of Islamic teachings.

This study examines legal protection for female workers in Indonesia using descriptive qualitative methods through a literature review. The results indicate that protection is regulated in Law No. 13 of 2003, which provides special rights such as maternity leave, breastfeeding rights, and work hour regulations to prevent discrimination. However, in practice, obstacles remain, such as discrimination, weak oversight, and low legal awareness. Therefore, strengthened law enforcement, outreach, and affirmative action policies are needed to achieve fairness in the workplace
