Abstract

Childless marriage, or an agreement between a husband and wife not to have children after marriage, is currently a trending topic on various social media platforms. Based on this issue, the formulation of this research is how childless marriages are seen from the hadith perspective and what solutions the hadiths offer to overcome this problem. The research method used is a literature study using the theory of hadith hermeneutics. This research was carried out by collecting and analyzing various written sources, such as books, journals and articles as well as Mu'tabar hadith books. The results of the study indicate that the hadiths regarding the permissibility of 'azal studied are of authentic quality and can be accepted as evidence in religion. Regarding understanding, thematic studies, especially from the historical aspects, show that the desire to perform 'azal expressed by a companion to the Prophet Muhammad was related to the condition of his wife who was breastfeeding, so the use of these hadiths as a basis for the permissibility of childfree needs to be reviewed. This shows a significant difference between childfree and the permissibility of 'azal. That the permissibility of 'azal does not mean an attitude or desire to not have children permanently, However, it is only conditional and temporary. This differs from childfree, which actually refuses to have children in a marriage. Meanwhile, a thematic analysis involving other "similar" hadiths shows that Islam places a strong emphasis on having children for its ideological and worshipful values. Therefore, the childfree attitude that is starting to become commonplace among Muslim couples is discouraged, even though having or not having children is the right of every couple. Moreover, if this childfree attitude becomes a "movement" and is campaigned extensively, then every Muslim should not make it a "principle" or primary choice in marriage.

Abstract

The concept of al-faḍlu al-ḥawāʾij in zakat jurisprudence distinguishes between essential needs (ḥājat aṣliyyah) and surplus wealth that forms the basis of zakat obligations. In contemporary socio-economic contexts, however, the increasing diversity of living standards and professional needs has made the determination of surplus wealth more complex. At UIN Sultan Syarif Kasim Riau, differing interpretations of al-faḍlu al-ḥawāʾij among employees have contributed to the less-than-optimal implementation of institutional zakat policies administered through the UPZ BAZNAS. Although many employees, particularly civil servants in Class IV, Echelon II structural officials, and lecturers holding senior functional positions receive relatively high incomes, the assessment and institutional distribution of income-based zakat remain inconsistent. This study employs a qualitative approach within a normative-empirical paradigm, combining an analysis of classical and contemporary fiqh literature with field data obtained through in-depth interviews and document analysis. The findings reveal that employees tend to interpret a “decent standard of living” broadly, encompassing not only basic necessities but also assets such as private vehicles, relatively spacious housing, professional expenditures related to research and community service, and long-term financial investments. Through reinterpretation based on the framework of maqāṣid al-sharīʿah, the study argues that al-faḍlu al-ḥawāʾij should be understood as wealth remaining after the fulfillment of primary (ḍarūriyyāt) and certain secondary (ḥājiyyāt) needs that support the preservation of religion, life, intellect, lineage, and wealth. Establishing measurable and context-sensitive standards of basic needs is therefore essential for determining income-based zakat obligations more equitably and for strengthening institutional zakat management, including the consideration of salary-based deductions derived from actual surplus income.

Abstract

The humanitarian crisis involving Rohingya refugees has become a complex issue affecting the Southeast Asian region, particularly Indonesia, which has received several waves of refugee arrivals. The Rohingya, a Muslim ethnic minority from Myanmar, have long endured systematic discrimination, culminating in a mass exodus of over 700,000 individuals in 2017 following military operations by the Myanmar government. The presence of Rohingya refugees in Indonesia presents not only humanitarian concerns but also increases the risk of exploitation by human trafficking networks (TPPO). This study aims to analyse Indonesia’s policy response to the Rohingya refugee crisis, with a specific focus on efforts to prevent human trafficking. A Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method was employed, reviewing 21 selected academic sources. The analysis evaluates the effectiveness of Indonesian government policies, the legal and institutional challenges in refugee protection, and the role of cooperation with international organisations such as UNHCR and IOM. The findings reveal that while Indonesia has provided temporary humanitarian assistance, its current policy framework remains insufficient to mitigate the refugees' vulnerability to trafficking. The study underscores the need for enhanced collaboration among the state, civil society, and international actors, as well as for a clearer legal framework grounded in human rights principles. Strengthening social protection mechanisms is essential to ensure that Rohingya refugees are safeguarded from exploitation and treated with dignity.

Abstract

Despite the theoretical potential of Islamic family law as an integrated framework for poverty alleviation through redistributive mechanisms like inheritance (farāidh), maintenance (nafaqah), wills (wasliyyah), and waqf, global scholarship exhibits significant thematic and methodological imbalances. This study addresses the lack of a comprehensive mapping of research trends and paradigm shifts at this intersection. It asks, what are the evolutionary trends, collaboration networks, and dominant thematic foci in global research on Islamic family law and poverty from 1990 to 2025? This research is subsequently comprehensive bibliometric research. This study uses the metadata of 597 documents from Scopus, Web of Science, Dimensions, and Semantic Scholar to map evolutionary trends, collaboration networks, and high-impact theme voids within the literature. The results show a pronounced imbalance, in which one of the keywords, ‘zakat,’ accounts for almost 70% of the thematic focus to the near total exclusion of other Islamic family law redistributive mechanisms such as inheritance (farāidh), nafaqah (alimony), and will (wasliyyah). The range of disciplines is dominated by social sciences and law, while religious studies and Islamic economics are conspicuously missing. It is this narrow perspective within maqhāsid sharia that displays a disintegrated approach that does not represent the comprehensive framework and methodology that the Islamic legal tradition employs to achieve the dual objectives of poverty alleviation (hifz al maslāhah) and wealth protection through lawful means (hifz al mal). It identifies a methodological gap by showing that 82% of studies using qualitative methods do not conduct an empirical impact assessment. These findings provide an impetus for a more multidisciplinary collaborative scholarly approach centered around empirical and maqhāsid oriented frameworks to examine how synergetic all instruments of Islamic family law can be toward successful poverty alleviation.

Abstract

This article examines the role of women in Sufism from the perspective of Islamic law, focusing on their spiritual practices, historical contributions, and contemporary relevance. It employs a qualitative interpretive approach, drawing on literature analysis, observations of online Sufi learning activities, and semi-structured interviews with women participating in Sufi study circles. The analysis is grounded in Jasser Auda’s Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿah framework, through which women’s spiritual engagement is assessed in relation to key legal objectives, including the preservation of religion (ḥifẓ al-dīn), life (ḥifẓ al-nafs), intellect (ḥifẓ al-‘aql), lineage (ḥifẓ al-nasl), and human dignity (ḥifẓ al-karāmah al-insāniyyah). The findings demonstrate that Sufi teachings, which emphasize spiritual equality and inner transformation, provide a normative Islamic basis for women’s active participation as spiritual leaders, intellectuals, and social actors. The study contributes to Islamic legal discourse by showing that women’s engagement in Sufism represents a viable and internally grounded framework for advancing gender equity and holistic human well-being within the tradition.

Abstract

The development of Web 3.0 technology has driven the birth of various digital innovations, including cryptocurrency and blockchain-based financial applications. This phenomenon affects the pattern of technology adoption by Generation Z Muslims, who are known to be adaptive to technology but still bound by religious values. This study aims to analyze the readiness of Generation Z Muslims to adopt cryptocurrency applications from a Sharia law perspective and to evaluate their understanding of the provisions of fiqh muamalah in a digital context. The methodology used is a qualitative approach with literature study and document analysis. The study results show that although most Generation Z have high digital skills, there is still a gap in understanding regarding the legal status of cryptocurrency in Islam. Based on the 2021 DSN MUI fatwa, cryptocurrency as a currency is considered haram because it contains elements of gharar and dharar. Still, it can be accepted as a digital asset with clear underlying assets and real benefits. This study concludes that Sharia financial literacy and digital literacy need to be improved simultaneously to support adopting financial technology based on Sharia principles. These findings contribute to developing a sustainable, inclusive, and adaptive digital sharia financial ecosystem to the dynamics of Web 3.0 technology.

Abstract

This paper examines the transformation of Islamic law through the process of codification from a comparative legal perspective. While classical Islamic law was traditionally pluralistic, jurist-driven, and uncodified, modern developments, especially since the 19th century, have seen states systematically incorporate Islamic legal principles into codified legal systems. The study explores how codification, influenced by European civil law models, reshapes the epistemology and authority of Islamic law, shifting interpretation from scholars to state actors. Through comparative case studies such as the Ottoman Majalla, Egypt, Iran, Malaysia, and Indonesia, the paper illustrates diverse models of codification ranging from centralized statutory codes to non-legislative presidential directives. The analysis highlights key debates around legal pluralism, gender reform, and the tension between tradition and state centralization. Codification, the paper argues, is not merely a legal technique but a transformative process that redefines the relationship between divine law and state sovereignty, producing hybrid legal systems that negotiate between Islamic authenticity and modern legal rationality.
