Abstract

This study explores the history of perdikan as the precursor of pesantren in Indonesia. Perdikan was initially an autonomous region serving as a center of education based on local wisdom. However, the process of Islamization transformed perdikan into a formal religious educational institution, known as pesantren. This research employs a library research method to analyze this transformation.The findings reveal that Islamization brought significant changes to the educational system in perdikan, shifting its focus from local customs to Islamic teachings. Pesantren later evolved into centers of moral, social, and economic education, playing a crucial role in the dissemination of Islam and community development. Moreover, pesantren demonstrated remarkable adaptability to modern demands, integrating contemporary curricula without losing their traditional values.

Abstract

The neglect of the fulfillment of iddah and mut’ah maintenance in divorce decisions made by default remains a serious problem in the practice of religious courts in Indonesia. This article examines this issue through a case study of Decision No. 156/Pdt.G/2018/PA.Lbs as a representation of the tendency of judges to prioritize a formal-procedural approach over the protection of the wife’s substantive rights. This research uses a normative juridical approach and case study, and aims to answer two main questions: whether the Respondent’s absence can be a legal reason to eliminate the right to iddah and mut’ah maintenance, and what is the basis for the judge’s consideration in not including these obligations in the decision. The results of the study indicate that the wife’s absence does not automatically revoke her rights, as long as there is no evidence of nusyuz or other legal conditions that cancel these rights. The judge’s decision, which is solely based on formal procedures without considering the principles of substantive justice and the protection of women, is contrary to the provisions of the Compilation of Islamic Law, Law No. 1 of 1974, and PERMA No. 3 of 2017. Therefore, it is necessary for the judge to implement ex officio authority to ensure that women's economic rights are fulfilled in divorce, even if the case is decided by default.

Abstract

Abstract

This study aims to examine the meaning of zakat in the Qur'an through Paul Ricoeur's hermeneutic approach with a focus on symbolism, text, and the process of refiguration. Through Ricoeur's hermeneutic theory, this study explores how zakat can be understood more deeply as a symbol of purification, social solidarity, and economic justice, and how the Qur'anic texts about zakat can be reinterpreted according to contemporary challenges and needs. This study uses a qualitative method with data collection techniques in the form of literature studies. The main data sources for this study are the verses of the Qur'an related to zakat, classical and contemporary interpretations, and literature on Paul Ricoeur's hermeneutics. The data were analyzed using Ricœur's hermeneutic approach which emphasizes understanding symbolism and the process of refiguring texts. The results of the study show that Paul Ricoeur's hermeneutic approach provides a new framework for understanding zakat. Zakat is understood not only as a financial obligation, but also as a symbol that reflects the values ​​of social justice and purification of the soul. Ricœur's theory of textual autonomy allows for a rereading of the zakat verses in a modern context, where challenges such as economic inequality and global poverty are increasingly pressing. The process of reinterpretation allows zakat to remain relevant and serve as an instrument of economic empowerment and wealth distribution in modern society.
