Abstract

Culture-based waqf fundraising is a strategic approach that utilizes a community’s cultural, religious, and social values to support waqf institutions. In Indonesia, local traditions such as Badoncek and Jimpitan reflect communal solidarity and can serve as effective mechanisms for waqf fundraising. This study highlights the importance of integrating local cultural practices to enhance the effectiveness, sustainability, and socio-economic impact of waqf in contemporary society. Using a qualitative, thematic analysis, the research draws on interviews with government officials, waqf practitioners, and academics to examine the opportunities and risks of culture-based waqf fundraising. The findings reveal that Badoncek and Jimpitan’s practices present significant opportunities and challenges when applied to waqf fundraising. They enable rapid fund collection, strengthen social cohesion, and maintain community engagement due to their deep-rooted cultural values and ongoing preservation. However, potential risks include limited scalability, a lack of standardized management, and dependency on local participation. Incorporating cultural elements into waqf fundraising can enhance trust, credibility, and long-term community commitment by respecting local traditions and values. They also raise public awareness about the importance and social impact of waqf. Therefore, integrating local culture, such as Badoncek and Jimpitan, into waqf fundraising strategies can strengthen community-based economic empowerment and sustain waqf institutions.

Abstract

Halal product assurance in Indonesia remains constrained by the gap between formal regulatory frameworks and the existing conditions and realities of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). This study investigates how hybrid governance settings, where state law, local socio-cultural norms, and market incentives coexist and shape MSME compliance with halal certification requirements. Focusing on the tourism-dependent economy of Gili Trawangan, the article employs a qualitative socio-legal methodology, combining in-depth interviews, field observations, and document analysis. Guided by Critical Legal Pluralism, Maqāṣid al-Syarī‘ah, and Substantialist–Formalist Compliance Theory, the findings identify three distinct compliance pathways: adoption, adaptation, and resistance. These patterns emerge from actors' strategic negotiations across multiple normative orders, mediated by their compliance orientations and prioritization of hifẓ al-māl, hifẓ al-dīn, and hifẓ al-nafs. The study argues that effective halal governance cannot rely solely on legal enforcement but must realign economic and religious–ethical objectives to make those conditions mutually reinforcing. This reconceptualisation contributes to academic debates on legal pluralism in Islamic economic governance, offering policy recommendations to harmonise formal law with socio-economic contexts in tourism-based Muslim-minority regions.

Abstract

This article examines the complex relationship between civil and family law in Iran, Egypt, and Indonesia. These three Muslim-majority nations, despite their unique legal systems shaped by varying integrations of Islamic jurisprudence and Western influences, all face the challenge of harmonizing modern legal frameworks with religious norms. The paper investigates this dynamic by analyzing how each country’s legal system defines and governs the family within its civil law framework. We delve into their respective court structures, the hierarchy of statutory laws, and the significant role of religious authorities. Our comparative analysis reveals how these societies balance tradition and modernity in their legal landscapes, offering insights into their shared struggles and distinct approaches to personal status and broader civil regulation. The findings highlight the critical tension between traditional religious norms and modern legal frameworks, with the core result that Iran employs a unified religious-legal approach in which family law is part of civil law, While early Iranian family law, like that of Egypt and Indonesia, was influenced by civil-law individualism and limited largely to alimony obligations, contemporary Iranian law—similar to developments in Egyptian and Indonesian family law—has shifted toward prioritizing the protection and collective interests of the family. At the same time, Egypt maintains a dual system with state-controlled religious courts and codified civil law. Indonesia, on the other hand, utilizes a decentralized system that grants significant autonomy to religious courts but subjects them to national legal oversight. Each nation has developed a unique, albeit often conflicted, strategy to manage this delicate balance.

Abstract

This study examines the complex relationship between sharia and constitutionalism in three Muslim-majority countries: Indonesia, Türkiye, and Saudi Arabia. Despite their majority Muslim population, these countries have adopted divergent approaches in integrating—or delimiting—the role of sharia within their constitutional frameworks. Drawing on interviews with legal and political scholars from each country, the research employs a comparative political-constitutional approach to analyze the dynamics of sharia constitutionalism across these distinct contexts. The findings reveal varying degrees of constitutional accommodation of sharia. Indonesia exemplifies a model of religious constitutionalism, where Islamic principles are acknowledged but not formally codified within the constitutional text. Türkiye represents a paradigm of secular constitutionalism that distinctly separates religion and state, excluding sharia from the constitutional and legal order. In contrast, Saudi Arabia exhibits a puritan constitutionalism, whereby the Quran and Hadith constitute the primary sources of constitutional authority. These contrasting models illuminate broader ideological and institutional orientations: Saudi Arabia grounds its constitutional identity in religion, Indonesia integrates certain religious principles within a pluralistic framework, and Türkiye maintains a secularist stance that confines religion to the private sphere.
