Abstract

Background: Unregistered divorce is carried out without going through the official procedure at the Religious Court, making it unrecognized under state law despite being valid according to Islamic law. This situation creates various legal issues, particularly regarding the legitimacy of registering children with the Civil Registry and Population Administration Office after such a divorce. Purpose: This study aims to analyze the interplay between legal norms and cultural practices in unregistered divorce highlighting how these practices affect the legal identity of children and exploring their implications within both Islamic legal thought and anthropological perspectives. Methods: This study employs an empirical juridical approach using field research methods. Primary data were obtained through interviews with community leaders, religious figures, and residents who engaged in unregistered divorces. Meanwhile, secondary data were collected from legal literature, statutory regulations, and other scholarly references. The analysis was conducted qualitatively through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. Findings: The study reveals that unregistered divorce is often legitimized by cultural consensus and religious approval at the local level, despite its non-compliance with formal legal procedures. Such practices contribute to the exclusion of children from official civil registration, limiting their access to legal rights. The findings indicate that religious authority and local customs operate as parallel legal systems, occasionally challenging the state’s regulatory framework. Theoretical and Practical Implications: The research enriches anthropological approaches to Islamic jurisprudence by illustrating how fiqh adapts and transforms in localized contexts. Practically, it suggests the need for culturally sensitive legal reforms and community-based legal literacy programs to bridge the gap between state law and community practices. Originality/Novelty: This study is among the first to integrate an anthropological reading of fiqh with empirical legal research on unregistered divorce in Indonesia, offering a nuanced understanding of how local Muslim communities reconcile religious norms with socio-legal realities.

Abstract

Background: Corruption and bribery are persistent global problems that undermine governance, economic growth, and societal trust. While numerous legal frameworks have been developed to address these issues, their effectiveness is often influenced by cultural, religious, and institutional contexts. In Muslim-majority countries, Sharia-based legal principles provide a distinctive ethical and normative foundation for combating corruption. Purpose: This study aims to examine cross-cultural variations in anti-corruption laws with a specific focus on the contributions of Sharia-based frameworks to ethical governance, transparency, and accountability. Methods: Employing a comparative legal analysis, the research reviews anti-corruption legislation, international conventions, and Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh) on integrity and public trust. Data are drawn from legal texts, case studies, and policy reports across multiple jurisdictions to evaluate enforcement mechanisms, preventive strategies, and public awareness campaigns. Findings: Employing a comparative legal analysis, the research reviews anti-corruption legislation, international conventions, and Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh) on integrity and public trust. Data are drawn from legal texts, case studies, and policy reports across multiple jurisdictions to evaluate enforcement mechanisms, preventive strategies, and public awareness campaigns. Theoretical and Practical Implications: The study contributes to legal anthropology and Islamic jurisprudence by framing anti-corruption laws within culturally rooted governance models. Practically, it offers policymakers strategies for integrating ethical-religious norms into legal reforms to improve transparency, strengthen institutions, and foster public trust. Originality/Novelty: systematically compare Sharia-based anti-corruption models with secular approaches through a cross-cultural lens, highlighting the role of religious-ethical frameworks as complementary tools to global legal standards

Abstract

Background: The criminal responsibility of minors remains a pressing issue in contemporary legal studies because it lies at the intersection of justice, child protection, and societal security. Purpose: The aim of this paper is to critically analyze the legal and conceptual foundations of juvenile criminal responsibility, with particular attention to international human rights standards and comparative practices across jurisdictions. Methods: the study adopts a doctrinal and critical comparative approach, examining statutory frameworks, judicial interpretations, and scholarly debates while integrating insights from developmental psychology. Findings: The results reveal substantial inconsistencies in the age of criminal responsibility, limited compliance with the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, and inadequate consideration of psychological maturity in determining culpability. Theoretical and Practical Implications: the study contributes to debates on the relationship between law, developmental science, and human rights in shaping juvenile justice frameworks. Practically, the findings underscore the need for policies that integrate restorative justice principles, prioritize rehabilitation over punitive measures, and harmonize domestic laws with international standards. Originality/Novelty: The originality of this research lies in its interdisciplinary critique that combines legal analysis, psychological insights, and human rights frameworks to propose an evidence-based recalibration of juvenile criminal responsibility .

Abstract

Background: The relationship between law, justice, and morality remains central in legal philosophy, yet much of the discourse remains normative and detached from real-world enforcement . Purpose: This study aims to empirically examine how moral frameworks influence the practice of law enforcement, particularly within contexts shaped by Islamic jurisprudence and local socio-cultural norms.. Methods: The research draws on semi-structured interviews with law enforcement officers, analysis of court cases, and ethnographic observation in Indonesian legal settings . Findings: Findings reveal that moral considerations rooted in religious values and communal ethics significantly shape interpretations and enforcement decisions, often mediating tensions between codified state law and local moral expectations. The evidence also shows that while positivist approaches dominate formal structures, natural law reasoning and socio-cultural ethics remain influential in practice. Theoretical and Practical Implications: The study bridges philosophy of law with empirical socio-legal research, offering insights into how morality operates as a determinant in justice delivery and conflict resolution. Originality/Novelty: This research contributes by integrating anthropological fiqh with legal philosophy, providing a culturally grounded and empirically validated framework for understanding morality in law enforcement

Abstract

Background: Comparative scholarship on prosecution systems often emphasizes structural and procedural distinctions between adversarial, inquisitorial, and mixed models, yet it rarely engages with how prosecutorial practices are shaped by socio-cultural norms and moral frameworks in real-world contexts . Purpose: This study aims to critically examine international prosecution models through an anthropological fiqh lens, analyzing how prosecutorial discretion, independence, and accountability are influenced not only by institutional design but also by religious values, local ‘urf, and communal ethics. Methods: The research employs a comparative socio-legal methodology that combines document analysis, semi-structured interviews with prosecutors and legal practitioners, and ethnographic observation in selected jurisdictions, including both civil law and common law traditions, as well as Muslim-majority legal systems. Findings: Results indicate that while formal structures prioritize legal certainty and efficiency, prosecutorial decision-making is frequently mediated by moral considerations and socio-cultural legitimacy. These dynamics generate significant variations in outcomes across jurisdictions, particularly in cases involving restorative justice, diversion, or sensitive moral offenses . Theoretical and Practical Implications: the study bridges legal philosophy with empirical practice, offering new insights into how prosecution systems can balance codified law with communal notions of justice. The findings also provide practical guidance for legal reforms aimed at enhancing prosecutorial transparency and fairness. Originality/Novelty: This research advances comparative prosecution studies by integrating anthropological fiqh into empirical analysis, producing a culturally grounded framework that reconceptualizes prosecutorial discretion within global criminal justice systems

Abstract

Abstract Background: Witnesses are a form of evidence that is valid according to law because it is used to reveal a fact. The witness's statement can be extracted by the investigator, namely at the investigation stage. If the witness is a child, their rights are protected as regulated in Law No. 23 of 2006 concerning Child Protection. Purpose: This research aims to find out how children's rights are protected, the obstacles to providing protection, and efforts to overcome barriers to delivering protection rights for children as witnesses due to the crime of sexual abuse committed by children at the investigation stage in the jurisdiction of the Kepanjen Resort Police. Methods: This research uses a sociological juridical approach, data collection techniques in the form of interviews with investigators, and direct observation at the PPA Unit of the Kepanjen Police and Children who have been witnesses as a place for collecting primary data to carry out document studies in the form of official documents, reports and regulations used. Findings: The results reveal substantial inconsistencies in the age of criminal responsibility, limited compliance with the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, and inadequate consideration of psychological maturity in determining culpability. Theoretical and Practical Implications: Research results show that in investigations of child abuse cases, children as witnesses have received guaranteed rights under the law . Originality/Novelty: The obstacles faced are classified as internal and external obstacles. So that in the future, PPA will tighten supervision and establish better cooperation with the government .
