Abstract

This study examines the legal accountability and consumer protection frameworks in Indonesia concerning the widespread health crisis caused by the consumption of contaminated paracetamol syrup, which led to cases of Atypical Progressive Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) in children. Using a normative juridical method, the research analyzes relevant statutory regulations, such as Law No. 8 of 1999 on Consumer Protection and Law No. 36 of 2009 on Health, alongside Islamic legal principles, particularly maslahah (public interest). The discussion focuses on the obligations of pharmaceutical companies and the regulatory role of the Indonesian Food and Drug Authority (BPOM) in ensuring the safety and quality of pharmaceutical products. Findings reveal that both the manufacturers and BPOM failed to fulfill their legal duties, leading to significant material and immaterial losses for affected consumers. From an Islamic legal perspective, the concept of maslahah underscores the moral and legal imperative to protect life and public welfare, supporting the need for stricter enforcement and accountability. The study concludes that a more robust legal and ethical framework is essential to protect children as vulnerable consumers, and it advocates for an integration of national law and Islamic principles to ensure justice, transparency, and the prevention of similar incidents in the future.

Abstract

This study presents a comparative legal analysis of wasiat wajibah (compulsory bequests) as implemented in Indonesia and Egypt, exploring how both Muslim-majority countries adapt Islamic inheritance principles to address the needs of non-heirs such as adopted children, stepchildren, and descendants of predeceased heirs. Rooted in classical Islamic jurisprudence, wasiat traditionally functioned as a voluntary bequest. However, modern legal systems in Indonesia and Egypt have transformed it into a compulsory mechanism to promote social justice and protect vulnerable individuals excluded under traditional fara’id rules. The study examines the integration of Sharia into national legal frameworks—Indonesia’s dual legal system and Egypt’s centralized civil law model—and analyzes key statutory provisions, judicial circulars, and landmark jurisprudence. Indonesian law, notably through the Kompilasi Hukum Islam and Supreme Court circulars, has broadened wasiat wajibah to include non-Muslim heirs and children of unregistered marriages. Egypt’s Law No. 71 of 1946 similarly mandates bequests for grandchildren. Through doctrinal and comparative methods, this study highlights both countries’ reliance on maslahah (public interest) and ijtihad (independent reasoning) in legal reform. The study concludes by addressing challenges related to legal certainty, access to justice, and the potential for broader Islamic legal modernization informed by context-sensitive interpretation.

Abstract

Indonesian Law Number 12 of 2022 on the Sexual Violence Crimes (TPKS) identifies sexual harassment—both non-physical and physical—as a form of sexual violence punishable by imprisonment and/or fines. However, there is a significant distinction in its legal classification. Non-physical sexual harassment is treated as a complaint-based offense (delik aduan), meaning it can only be prosecuted if reported by the victim. In contrast, physical sexual harassment may be categorized as either a complaint-based offense or a public offense (delik biasa), the latter allowing law enforcement to initiate proceedings without a formal complaint. This paper critically examines the alignment between these legal classifications and the philosophical foundations set forth in the preamble of the TPKS Law and its Academic Paper. Utilizing a normative juridical approach, the study draws from primary legal sources and the academic paper, analyzed through qualitative descriptive methods, including data reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing. The study finds that the differentiation between complaint-based and public offenses for sexual harassment is inconsistent with the law’s stated philosophical values, which emphasize the protection of human dignity and the prevention of sexual violence as a matter of public interest.

Abstract

Qard contract, or benevolent loan, is widely recognized in Islamic finance as a non-interest-based instrument aimed at promoting social welfare. PNM Mekaar Syariah utilizes qard-based microfinance to empower women entrepreneurs in Indonesia. This study assesses the legal basis and implementation of qard within this program from the perspectives of positive Sharia law and classical Islamic jurisprudence. This research employs normative legal analysis using primary legal sources, including DSN-MUI fatwas, national regulations, and classical fiqh texts. A comparative approach is used to evaluate convergence and divergence between modern legal frameworks and traditional Islamic thought. Findings reveal substantial alignment between both perspectives regarding the permissibility and objectives of qard. However, divergences emerge in the treatment of administrative fees, group liability, and repayment terms. Classical jurists emphasize the non-commercial, voluntary nature of qard, while positive Sharia law permits institutional adaptations under regulatory oversight. The study highlights the need for policy reforms to harmonize institutional practices with classical ethical principles, especially concerning borrower protection and contract purity. Qard-based microfinance under PNM Mekaar Syariah is legally and ethically viable when guided by maqāṣid al-sharīʿah and strengthened through consistent Sharia governance.

Abstract

In Islamic jurisprudence, the validity of marriage is contingent upon clear gender classification, a condition that poses legal complexities in the case of khuntha (intersex individuals). Classical jurists recognized khuntha as a distinct legal category and developed nuanced rulings, particularly distinguishing between khuntha wādih and khuntha mushkil. However, advances in medical science and shifting socio-legal contexts necessitate a re-examination of these doctrines. This study adopts a doctrinal and comparative approach, analyzing the positions of the four Sunni schools—Hanafī, Mālikī, Shāfiʿī, and Hanbalī—on the permissibility of khuntha marriage. It engages classical legal texts, modern fatwas, and contemporary bioethical considerations to assess continuity and reform. The four schools unanimously prohibit marriage for khuntha mushkil without gender clarity, while permitting it for khuntha wādih upon identifiable signs. Divergences arise in their evidentiary standards and interpretive flexibility. Contemporary scholars increasingly advocate for the inclusion of medical criteria and expert consultation in gender determination. Islamic legal tradition provides a principled yet adaptable framework for addressing khuntha marriage. By integrating classical methodologies with contemporary scientific understanding, jurists can uphold Sharīʿah objectives while affirming the dignity and marital rights of intersex individuals. This reflects both fidelity to tradition and responsiveness to present realities.

Abstract

This review examines Islamic Law and International Law: Peaceful Resolution of Disputes (Oxford University Press, 2020) by Emilia Justyna Powell, a groundbreaking interdisciplinary study that explores how Islamic legal traditions influence the engagement of Muslim-majority states with international dispute resolution mechanisms. Drawing from original empirical data and classical Islamic jurisprudence, Powell argues that domestic legal structures—whether secular, Islamic, or hybrid—significantly shape states' preferences for international conflict resolution methods. The book highlights both the consonance and dissonance between Islamic law and international law, particularly in the context of peaceful settlement. Powell challenges prevailing assumptions of uniformity among Islamic Law States and demonstrates the importance of legal pluralism in international relations. Through critical analysis, this review assesses the strengths of Powell’s approach—her empirical rigor, legal-philosophical insight, and contribution to debates on global justice—while also noting the limitations, including the need for a more nuanced understanding of hybrid legal systems and broader geopolitical factors. Overall, the book is a significant scholarly contribution that bridges comparative law, Islamic studies, and international legal theory, offering valuable insights into the evolving dynamics of legal identity and interstate conflict management.
