Abstract

The evolution of criminal law in Indonesia, marked by the enactment of Law Number 1 of 2023 concerning the Criminal Code (the New KUHP), has altered the regulation of aggravated theft; the provisions previously set forth in Article 363 of the old Criminal Code have been superseded by Article 477 of the New Criminal Code. A significant update in this article is the inclusion of protection for sanctified religious objects as an aggravating factor in the crime of theft. This provision warrants examination because the theft of sanctified religious objects causes not only material loss but also impacts spiritual values, social order, and religious dignity within society. This study aims to analyze the classification of sanctified religious objects as an aggravating factor for theft under Article 477 of the Criminal Code, examine the Islamic criminal law perspective regarding this aggravating factor, and analyze the objectives of sentencing perpetrators who steal sanctified religious objects from the viewpoints of both positive law and Islamic criminal law. The study employs a normative-juridical method utilizing statutory, conceptual, and comparative approaches. The research findings indicate that sanctified religious objects possess a special legal status due to the sacred, social, and religious values they embody. Consequently, the theft of such objects merits harsher sanctions than ordinary theft. From the perspective of Islamic criminal law, this provision aligns with the objectives of maqasid al-shariʿah specifically hifz al-din (protection of religion) and hifz al-mal (protection of property) and is best understood within the framework of taʿzir as a means to protect religion and maintain social order. The novelty of this research lies in the integrative analysis of Article 477 of the New Criminal Code and the concept of jarimah sariqah in Islamic criminal law specifically regarding the classification of sanctified religious objects as an aggravating factor in theft a topic that has received limited attention in previous studies.

Abstract

This study examines the role of criterion-referenced assessment in strengthening critical thinking skills in Islamic Education. The study is motivated by the dominance of memorization-oriented assessment practices that limit students’ analytical and reflective abilities. Previous studies have discussed authentic assessment and higher-order thinking skills, yet limited attention has been given to criterion-referenced assessment as a framework for developing critical thinking in Islamic Education. This research employed a qualitative approach using library research methods. Data were collected from books, journal articles, and academic publications issued within the last ten years and analyzed through content analysis. The findings indicate that criterion-referenced assessment supports critical thinking development through competency-based evaluation, analytical learning tasks, reflective learning processes, and measurable learning indicators. The analysis further reveals that students’ critical thinking is strengthened when assessment emphasizes mastery of learning criteria, evidence-based reasoning, and continuous feedback rather than comparison with peers. Furthermore, this assessment approach encourages a shift from score-oriented evaluation toward competency and reasoning-based assessment in Islamic Education. The study concludes that criterion-referenced assessment provides an innovative framework for strengthening critical thinking and supporting 21st-century learning competencies.

Abstract

This study aims to conduct an in-depth analysis of drug abuse as a triggering factor of divorce in Rejang Lebong Regency and to evaluate it through the perspective of Maqasid Sharia. The research employs a case study design with a sequential explanatory approach, integrating quantitative data obtained from the Religious Court of Curup with in-depth interviews involving divorced parties, customary leaders, and legal practitioners. The findings reveal two major conclusions. First, on an empirical level, drug abuse in Rejang Lebong has been identified as a systemic problem strongly associated with 15–30% of divorce petitions filed at the Religious Court of Curup over the past two years. Second, from the perspective of Maqasid Sharia, drug abuse systematically undermines the five universal objectives of Islamic law. It damages the intellect (hifzh al-‘aql) as the center of human consciousness, endangers life (hifzh al-nafs) through health risks and mortality, threatens lineage (hifzh al-nasl) by fostering an unhealthy family environment, and destroys property (hifzh al-mal) through financial waste on narcotics consumption. Accordingly, Islam views divorce in such circumstances not merely as a legal remedy, but as a necessary measure to safeguard greater public interest (maslahah), particularly the protection of life and the future of children, especially when the fundamental objectives of marriage tranquility and affection have been severely undermined. In this sense, divorce becomes a last-resort but legitimate mechanism to preserve the higher purposes of Sharia.

Abstract

The implementation of restorative justice in resolving domestic violence (Kekerasan Dalam Rumah Tangga/KDRT) cases at the Lebong Resort Police has emerged as a significant issue within Indonesia’s contemporary law enforcement system. This approach provides an alternative mechanism for dispute resolution outside formal litigation by prioritizing reconciliation and the restoration of relationships between victims and perpetrators. Nevertheless, its application in domestic violence cases, which are categorized as absolute complaint offenses, raises important legal and ethical questions when examined through the lens of Islamic family law. Accordingly, this study seeks to analyze the practice of restorative justice at Polres Lebong and to evaluate its implementation from the perspective of Islamic family law. The research employs an empirical juridical method with a qualitative approach. Primary data were collected through in-depth interviews involving investigators from the Women and Children Protection Unit (Unit PPA) of Polres Lebong, victims, perpetrators, religious leaders, and community figures. In addition, secondary data were obtained from statutory regulations, academic books, and scholarly journal articles relevant to restorative justice and domestic violence issues. The findings reveal that the restorative justice process at Polres Lebong is primarily carried out through mediation involving the perpetrator, the victim, family members, and police officers. The process requires several essential conditions, including the perpetrator’s acknowledgment of wrongdoing, the victim’s willingness to forgive, and the formulation of a written peace agreement between the parties. From the standpoint of Islamic family law, this practice is closely aligned with the principle of iṣlāḥ (reconciliation), as reflected in QS An-Nisaʾ verse 35. The involvement of family representatives and community leaders in the mediation process also corresponds to the Islamic concept of appointing hakam (mediators) to resolve family disputes. Furthermore, agreements concerning compensation or financial support embody the Islamic values of justice (‘adālah) and responsibility (mas’ūliyyah). Even so, the implementation of restorative justice must continue to prioritize victim protection and ensure that reconciliation efforts do not compromise victims’ rights or create opportunities for repeated violence in the future.

Abstract

This study examines the relevance of the concept of kafa’ah in Islamic law and Mandar customs through a case study in Polewali Mandar Regency. The purpose of this study is to determine the concept of kafa’ah in Mandar customs according to traditional leaders and cultural experts, the Islamic legal perspective on kafa’ah, and the relevance of both. The method used is qualitative with a comparative analysis approach, based on data from interviews with traditional leaders and Mandar cultural experts and studies of classical and contemporary fiqh books. The results show that in Islamic law, kafa’ah is an important principle of marriage to maintain household harmony. Aspects considered include compatibility of religion, lineage, wealth, occupation, physical condition, and Islamic faith, with the main emphasis on compatibility of religion or morals. In Mandar customs, kafa’ah places greater emphasis on descent or social strata, which are divided into several groups, such as royal nobility (todiang laiyana), customary nobility (tau pia), free people (tau samar), and slaves (batua), while also considering religion, economics, blood relations, and health, particularly hereditary diseases such as leprosy (karae uli’) and poppoang. The similarity between the two lies in respect for religion, while the difference lies in the Mandar custom’s emphasis on lineage, which is less in line with the principle of Islamic equality. Over time, some traditional leaders consider the emphasis on lineage to be no longer relevant, although some still maintain it.

Abstract

This study presents field data on the thought of the Qur’aniyyun of the Majlis Tarbiyah Garut and offers an analysis of the relationship between the rejection of hadis authority and the construction of exegetical methodology within local study groups. The study not only analyzes the texts of Qur’aniyyun thought but also examines the practice of Qur’anic interpretation in study group activities firsthand. The doctrines they adhere to are: the Qur’an as the primary Holy Book; acceptance of the Sunah but rejection of hadith; interpretation of the Qur’an through the Qur’an itself; and the obligation to take the oath of allegiance (bay’at) and the testimony of faith (syahadat) in the presence of their leader.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the errors of the judex facti judge in interpreting the arbitration clause in a sharia economic dispute, with a case study of the Supreme Court Decision Number 2460 K/Pdt/2010 between Drs. Murni Anwar against PT Haman Rokko Enterprise and Bank Syariah Mandiri. The main focus of this study is the form of error of the District Court judge in determining judicial competence as well as the legal and epistemological implications of the error in interpreting the arbitration clause. This study uses a juridical-normative approach with an analysis of laws and regulations, legal doctrine, and court decisions. The results of the study indicate that the judge of the East Jakarta District Court has committed an error in competence because he interpreted the arbitration clause automatically eliminating the court's jurisdiction, even though the clause does not meet the formal requirements as stipulated in Article 9 paragraph (1) of Law Number 30 of 1999 concerning Arbitration and Alternative Dispute Resolution. In addition, the judge also committed a hermeneutic error, an interpretive error due to only understanding the arbitration clause textually without considering the context of Islamic economic law as stipulated in Article 55 of Law Number 21 of 2008 concerning Islamic Banking. This error indicates an epistemic dualism between positive law and Islamic law, where the judge still adheres to the positivistic paradigm and ignores the principle of maqasid al-syari‘ah which emphasizes substantive justice. The Supreme Court, through corrections at the cassation level, restored the balance between the principle of lex specialis derogat legi generali and the principle of substantive justice. This decision emphasizes the importance of hermeneutic and systematic legal interpretation in Islamic economic cases and emphasizes the role of the Religious Court as the primary institution in resolving Islamic economic disputes. This research contributes to the development of Islamic economic law enforcement theory by emphasizing the importance of harmonization between national procedural law and the principles of Islamic justice. This study also recommends the need to establish a jurisprudential doctrine regarding the validity of sharia arbitration clauses to ensure consistency in the application of the law and protection of the parties' rights to justice.

Abstract

This article aims to analyze the existence of Muslim women in the end times through the interpretation of QS Al-Ahzab verses 32 and 33 in Tafsir Al-Mishbah by M. Quraish Shihab. This study uses a qualitative approach with a type of library research. Primary data was obtained from Tafsir Al-Mishbah, while secondary data came from various literature relevant to the study of interpretation and Muslim women. The results show that the existence of Muslim women in the end times from the perspective of the Qur'an is reflected through morality, communication ethics, maintaining personal honor, and the ability to maintain Islamic identity amidst the challenges of modernity. QS Al-Ahzab verses 32 and 33 emphasize the importance of maintaining modesty, ethics in speaking, and the prohibition of tabarruj (displaying excessive charm) as a form of moral protection for Muslim women. Thus, the values in these verses remain relevant as ethical guidelines for Muslim women in facing the development of the times without losing their Islamic identity.

Abstract

This study conducted a systematic review of curriculum documents for the Al-Qur'an and Hadith subject in madrasahs in the context of the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum, by comprehensively examining the relationship between learning objectives, content, and assessment strategies. Using a documentation-based qualitative approach, this study analyzed Learning Objectives (LO), Learning Objective Sequences (LOS), and teaching modules as primary data sources. The results of the analysis reveal that the curriculum objectives have been systematically and structurally formulated through the integrated incorporation of cognitive, affective, and psychomotor competencies across all domains of learning. The learning content centers on three fundamental domains tajwid, the content of the Qur’an, and hadith studies which are delivered through contextual learning experiences and activities oriented toward real-world practice. Assessment practices emphasize authentic assessment as a tool to measure students’ abilities not only in reading, memorizing, and understanding but also in consistently applying and actualizing Islamic values in their daily lives. These findings affirm that the Qur’an and Hadith curriculum within the framework of the Merdeka Curriculum makes a significant contribution to the holistic strengthening of students’ religious character.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of the Ijarah Muntahiya Bittamlik (IMBT) contract in Indonesian Sharia banking and to assess its compliance with Sharia principles and the fatwas (religious rulings) of the National Sharia Board of the Indonesian Council of Ulama (DSN-MUI). A normative-juridical research method with a qualitative approach was employed, utilizing a literature review of primary, secondary, and tertiary legal sources. The findings indicate that the implementation of IMBT in Sharia banking has evolved and is utilized across various financing products, such as those for vehicles, property, and other productive assets. However, there are variations in practice among banks, particularly regarding contract structures, ownership transfer mechanisms, and risk management. Regarding Sharia compliance, the implementation of IMBT generally adheres to DSN-MUI fatwas; nevertheless, potential deviations persist, such as the suboptimal separation of contracts and issues concerning asset ownership. Therefore, strengthening regulations, enhancing Sharia supervision, and standardizing implementation are necessary to ensure that IMBT contracts operate in substantive accordance with Sharia principles.
