Abstract

While previous studies on joint marital asset disputes have examined evidentiary issues or distributive justice separately, none have simultaneously integrated evidentiary law, the Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI), and the three dimensions of Islamic justice (legal, moral, social) in a case involving an unsubstantiated gift (hibah) claim. This study fills that gap by analyzing a final and binding Religious Court decision rendered by the Jombang Religious Court, selected based on inclusion criteria (absence of a prenuptial agreement, asset acquisition during marriage, and a hibah claim lacking formal proof). Using normative legal research with a case approach, the analysis was operationalized through grammatical, systematic, and teleological interpretation of Articles 35 (Marriage Law), 87, and 97 KHI. The findings reveal three novel insights. First, the judges placed the entire burden of proof on the party claiming hibah; the absence of qabdh (physical delivery of the gifted object), a written hibah deed, or witnesses rendered the claim legally unsubstantiated. Consequently, the principle of gemeinschaft van goederen (automatic asset commingling upon marriage) remained the default legal starting point, leading to a 50:50 division under Article 97 KHI. Second, a normative tension emerges: although Article 87 KHI recognizes hibah as separate property, in evidentiary practice, an unproven hibah claim reverts to the 50:50 presumption, effectively subordinating Article 87 to Article 97. Third, the decision aligns with al-'adl by prioritizing legal objectivity, recognizing non-economic spousal contributions, protecting economically vulnerable ex-spouses, and safeguarding property (hifz al-mal) as a core objective of maqashid sharia.

Abstract

Indonesian Marriage Law Number 1 of 1974 is a product of Islamic Family Law that emerged through a highly complex social and political process, involving intense debate between the state, religious groups, and civil society. Its introduction has generated both pros and cons from various figures, from religious scholars, academics, women's activists, to socio-religious organizations. This study aims to analyze the attitudes or positions of pro and contra figures towards the Indonesian Marriage Law using Pierre Bourdieu's theory of social practice. This study uses a qualitative approach with an interpretative-critical paradigm, by placing the concepts of habitus, capital (cultural, social, symbolic, and political), and arena as the main analytical tools. Data are analyzed by tracing the social background, education, power networks, and symbolic authority of the figures in the realm of family law legislation. The research findings show that the pros and cons of the Marriage Law are not solely based on differing normative or theological perspectives, but rather are social practices shaped by the structural positions of actors within the political-legal and religious arenas. Pro-Islamic figures, such as women's activists, academics, and progressive clerics, generally possess a modernist habitus and cultural and symbolic capital that encourages reform of family law. Conversely, anti-Islamic figures, particularly those from traditional clerics and Islamic politicians, exhibit a conservative fiqh habitus with strong symbolic capital from the clerics, thus viewing state regulations as a form of intervention in Islamic legal authority. These findings confirm that the formation of family law in Indonesia is the result of dynamic power relations and social contestation, not simply a product of legal-formal norms

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the legal politics of halal certification as a strategic instrument in strengthening the national sharia economy in Indonesia. Halal certification is no longer seen simply as fulfilling normative religious obligations, but has developed into a state legal policy that functions to provide legal certainty, consumer protection, and increase the competitiveness of national products in domestic and global markets. Through Law Number 33 of 2014 concerning Halal Product Guarantees and its derivative regulations, the state emphasizes the legal political direction that places halal as part of national economic development, especially in supporting the halal industry, micro, small and medium enterprises, as well as expanding exports of sharia-based products. The implementation of the mandatory halal policy which has been extended until 2026 increasingly shows that halal certification is a legal instrument that has religious, economic and strategic dimensions in strengthening Indonesia's sharia economic ecosystem. This research uses normative juridical methods with legislative, conceptual and public policy approaches. The research results show that the legal politics of halal certification are directed at three main objectives, namely protecting the rights of Muslim consumers, increasing market confidence, and strengthening Indonesia's position as the center of the global halal industry. This policy also has implications for improving business governance that is more transparent, accountable and in accordance with maqashid sharia principles, especially in protecting religion (hifz al-din) and property (hifz al-mal). Thus, halal certification has a strategic function as a social and economic engineering instrument capable of encouraging sustainable national sharia economic growth.

Abstract

This study conducts a literature review on the civil law position of land derived from corruption, focusing on the validity of land rights transfer and the protection of good faith purchasers. Using qualitative methods with content analysis of legal texts and academic literature, the research reveals that the validity of land rights transfer cannot be determined monolithically but depends on the interaction between civil and criminal law provisions. From a civil law perspective, land transfer to purchasers meeting general sale requirements is valid, especially if they act in good faith. However, criminal law grants the state the right to trace and confiscate corruption-derived assets, which may limit such validity. The equilibrium point is found in the concept of good faith operationalized through objective due diligence standards. Purchasers meeting these standards through adequate examination, fair price payment, and proper transaction procedures deserve protection, rendering their land non-confiscable. Conversely, negligent or bad faith purchasers receive no protection, allowing state confiscation. The study identifies key indicators of good faith including price reasonableness, compliance with procedures, and purchaser awareness of red flags. It concludes that proportional protection balancing legal certainty in civil transactions with effective state asset recovery is essential for achieving justice in corruption asset handling.

Abstract

This study analyzes the transformation of the concept of early marriage in Islamic family law from the time of Prophet Muhammad to the modern era, focusing on the shift in marriage eligibility indicators from baligh (biological) to numerical age limits (19 years) under Law No. 16 of 2019. Employing a qualitative library research method, this study integrates historical, hermeneutical, comparative, and maqāṣid al-sharī'ah approaches. The findings reveal that the practice of early marriage during the Prophet's time was a contextual sunnah, not a universal normative prescription, thus allowing flexibility to adapt to changing times. Modern regulations restricting the age of marriage do not contradict sharī'ah; rather, they represent a progressive implementation of sharī'ah's objectives, particularly the protection of life, intellect, and lineage. The maqāṣid approach and the legal maxim dar'u al-mafāsid provide theological legitimacy for the state to impose restrictions to prevent greater harm. This study contributes to the development of uṣūl al-fiqh by demonstrating that collective ijtihad through legislative mechanisms can serve as an instrument for adapting Islamic law to contemporary social realities. Practically, it implies strengthening the capacity of religious court officials, public education based on maqāṣid, and regulatory harmonization. Further research is recommended to explore the effectiveness of policy implementation at the grassroots level and comparative studies across Muslim countries.

Abstract

Divorce in Indonesia has significant repercussions on children’s welfare, yet classical Islamic jurisprudence—particularly the Shafi‘i school—offers a systematic normative framework for post-divorce child protection through the concept of hadhanah (custody). This study aims to analyze the concept of child protection in divorce cases according to the classical text Fath al-Qarib al-Mujib by Shaykh Muhammad bin Qasim al-Ghazi, compare it with Indonesian positive law (Law No. 35/2014 on Child Protection and the Compilation of Islamic Law), and evaluate its alignment with maqashid sharia. Using normative legal research with a library-based case approach, the study employs content analysis, source triangulation, and comparative analysis between classical fiqh and contemporary legal practice. The findings reveal that Fath al-Qarib establishes a structured child protection system based on three pillars: custody (hadhanah) prioritizing the mother (or a specified hierarchy of relatives), maintenance (nafaqah) as the father’s absolute obligation, and visitation rights. However, a systematic implementation gap exists between this normative ideal and Indonesian legal practice, manifested as triadic failure (state, law, and religious institutions). From a maqashid sharia perspective, this gap threatens ḥifẓ al-nafs (protection of life) and ḥifẓ al-nasl (protection of lineage). The research contributes an integrative framework linking classical fiqh, positive law, and maqashid sharia while identifying procedural, institutional, and cultural failures. It recommends strengthening enforcement mechanisms (dwangsom), structured mediation, and shared parenting approaches. Future research should conduct empirical studies on compliance rates and cross-madhhab comparisons.

Abstract

This study analyzes the legal ruling on the “Indonesia Gelap” (Dark Indonesia) protest movement from the perspective of contemporary Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh), focusing on the application of sadd al-dharī‘ah (blocking the means to evil) and examining the active participation of women in public spaces. The research is based on the 21st decision of the Bahtsul Masail Forum (FBM) of Islamic boarding schools across Java and Madura (2025.) Employing a qualitative library research method with a normative-juridical approach, this study analyzes the forum’s decision text, classical fiqh books (turats), and principles of uṣūl al-fiqh. The findings reveal that the original legal status of protest is mubāḥ (permissible) as a means of amar ma‘rūf nahi munkar (enjoining good and forbidding evil), yet its permissibility is conditional. The “Indonesia Gelap” protest is deemed impermissible because the mass lights-off action potentially causes systemic harm (mafsadah), such as increased crime rates, disruption of public services, and threats to life safety. Hence, the maxim dar’u al-mafāsid muqaddam ‘alā jalb al-maṣāliḥ (preventing harm takes precedence over securing benefits) must be prioritized. Women’s participation in protests is conditionally permissible (jawāz) provided they maintain their honor (murū’ah), remain safe from fitnah and unlawful mixing (ikhtilāṭ), and obtain permission from their husbands (for married women). If the situation is unsafe, women are advised to channel their aspirations through other, more beneficial means. This study contributes to the development of contemporary fiqh siyāsah that is contextual and responsive to socio-political dynamics, offering legal guidance for society and Islamic boarding schools in responding to mass protests

Abstract

Domestic violence (DV) is a crucial issue in modern society, especially for women, as it impacts physical, psychological, and spiritual suffering. In this context, the study of the verses of the Qur'an is important, especially by comparing the classical interpretation approach and the feminist hermeneutic approach of Amina Wadud. Amina Wadud, a feminist Muslim scholar, interprets the verses of the Qur'an by upholding the principles of justice and gender equality. This study uses a literature study method with a descriptive-analytical approach to examine Amina Wadud's thoughts on verses relevant to domestic violence. The results of this study, according to Amina Wadud, domestic violence, which is often legitimized, is not in line with the values ​​taught in the Qur'an, which is often understood literally, so that it often gives rise to misunderstandings regarding husband-wife relations. Although this interpretation is based on the authority of previous scholars, there is a need for a re-examination of the context of justice and equality as Islamic teachings.

Abstract

Wayang, as one of the cultural heritages of the Indonesian archipelago, possesses significant aesthetic, philosophical, and educational values. From the perspective of Islamic law, the existence of cultural arts such as wayang often becomes a subject of debate regarding its legal status. This study aims to examine wayang as a medium of da'wah through the approach of maqāṣid al-syarī‘ah. The research method employed is library research with a qualitative approach. The findings indicate that wayang, as a cultural product, does not have a fixed legal ruling; rather, it depends on its content, purpose, and impact. Within the framework of maqāṣid al-syarī‘ah, wayang can function as a means of preserving religion, intellect, and social values when utilized appropriately. Nevertheless, potential deviations must be anticipated, particularly when it contains elements that contradict the principle of tawḥīd. Therefore, wayang can be accepted as a contextual medium of da'wah as long as it aligns with the objectives of Islamic law.
