Abstract

Divorce outside the Religious Court is still a common practice among Muslim communities, including in Tatengger Village, Angkola Muara Tais District, and raises further legal issues regarding marital status and remarriage practices. This study aims to analyze the implementation of remarriage after divorce outside the Religious Court and review it from the perspective of Islamic law and Indonesian positive law. This study uses a qualitative method with a normative and empirical juridical approach, through field studies and literature studies. Data was obtained through interviews with married couples, religious leaders, and community leaders, then analyzed descriptively and analytically. The results of the study show that remarriage is carried out as a form of precaution (Ihtiyati) to maintain the validity of the husband and wife relationship due to doubts about the status of divorce. In Islamic law, this practice is related to the concept of Tajdid Al-Nikah, which has certain legal implications, while in positive law, this practice has no legal force and has the potential to cause legal uncertainty. This study emphasizes the need for harmonization between Islamic law and state law in family law practice.

Abstract

This study analyzes the potential of gold installment schemes as a sharia-compliant investment alternative for micro, small, and medium enterprises in the context of global economic uncertainty. The background of the research highlights the need for UMKM to access safe, stable, and sharia-based investment instruments. The study aims to explain how gold installment schemes can function as an asset diversification mechanism and a tool for strengthening financial resilience. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, the methodology incorporates literature review, field observation, and interviews with UMKM actors and officers of sharia financial institutions. The findings indicate that gold installment schemes are viewed as accessible, affordable, and stable investment instruments that appeal to UMKM. Interview results reveal that such schemes support financial discipline while providing a sense of security in managing assets amid economic fluctuations. The discussion affirms consistency between the study’s findings and existing literature on gold as a safe haven asset while highlighting its relevance in the development of sharia investment products. The study concludes that gold installment schemes have strong potential to support UMKM financial resilience and should be enhanced through literacy programs, product innovation, and institutional reinforcement. This research contributes theoretical and practical insights to the advancement of Islamic economic studies.

Abstract

Khitbah is a pre-marital phase recognised in Islamic jurisprudence as a means of Ta’ruf before the marriage contract is concluded. One important issue in khitbah is the limits of what is permissible in terms of seeing one's prospective spouse, which in practice is often misunderstood and exceeds the limits of Sharia ethics, especially in the context of modern Muslim society. This study aims to analyse the concept of limits on seeing in khitbah according to fiqh, conduct a comparative study of the thoughts of Ibn Hazm and Wahbah Az Zuhaili, and examine its relevance to Indonesian Muslim culture. This study is a normative Islamic legal study with a comparative approach, using a literature study of classical and contemporary fiqh books as the main source. The results show that Ibn Hazm permits viewing all parts of the prospective spouse's body based on the textual approach of the Zahiriyah school of thought, while Wahbah Az Zuhaili limits it to only the face and both palms out of caution and to prevent mafsadat. In the context of Indonesian Muslim culture, where the meaning of khitbah has shifted to resemble dating, the views of the majority of scholars as explained by Wahbah Az Zuhaili are considered more relevant for maintaining pre-marital social ethics. This study emphasises that restrictions on viewing during khitbah have practical implications for the moral and social development of Muslim communities
