Abstract

Unity in determining the Hijri month’s beginning remains a significant issue in the Muslim world, including Indonesia. Muhammadiyah has proposed the Single Global Hijri Calendar (KHGT) as a scientific and integrative solution to standardize Islamic dates worldwide. This study aims to measure the levels of awareness, understanding, acceptance, and readiness of Indonesian Muslims toward the KHGT initiative. Using a descriptive-quantitative approach, data were collected from 300 online respondents via a Likert-scale questionnaire and analysed using descriptive statistics and Pearson's correlation analysis. The results show that all indicators fall within the high category: awareness (3.96), understanding (3.83), acceptance (4.32), and readiness (4.20). The correlation results between variables are significant and positive, with the strongest relationship found between awareness and understanding (r = 0.865). These findings indicate that higher awareness and understanding contribute to greater public acceptance of and readiness to adopt the KHGT. However, the dominance of Muhammadiyah respondents (88.9%) highlights the need for broader cross-organizational outreach. This study provides empirical evidence supporting the diffusion of religious innovations and underscores the importance of communication strategies that combine scientific education and cultural da’wah to promote the global adoption of the KHGT.

Abstract

The Indonesian Islamic Da’wa Institution (LDII) has a different marriage arrangement from most. In the matchmaking process, they have a marriage team responsible for overseeing it and facilitating an unregistered marriage (nikah dalam). An unregistered marriage is a marriage contract carried out by the congregation before a marriage is performed in the Office of Religious Affairs. This study aims to analyze the matchmaking process and the unregistered marriage practice carried out by the LDII in Sawoo Village, Ponorogo, Indonesia, utilising a Sociology of Law approach and the Structural-Functional (AGIL) framework. This study employed a descriptive-qualitative approach to describe and analyze the phenomenon. The findings show that the practice of nikah dalam in the LDII community is influenced by cultural, social, biological, and personality systems.  Furthermore, it is also an effort to maintain a system that has become a stable norm in the community because it meets four functional requirements. They are Adaptation, Goal Attainment, Integration, and Latency. Therefore, the system remains alive and runs well, preventing conflict. This paper contributes to studies in the Islamic Family Law, especially, regarding traditions and marriage practices in Indonesian religious organizations. This study also provides a detailed account of how religious authority acts as the primary legal actor in enforcing the community's internal rules.

Abstract

This research is motivated by the urgency of legal protection for Muslim consumers in Indonesia through halal certification, in line with the enactment of Law Number 33 of 2014 on Halal Product Assurance (UU JPH). The main objective of this study is to analyze the implementation of the UU JPH in halal certification practices and evaluate its effectiveness from the perspective of maqashid syariah. This research employs a normative juridical method using statute, conceptual, and maqashid-based approaches, and utilizes primary, secondary, and tertiary legal data, analyzed descriptively and analytically using content analysis techniques. The findings show that the implementation of the UU JPH is a strategic step in providing legal certainty regarding the halal status of products circulating in Indonesia. However, its execution still faces challenges, such as the low preparedness of small business actors and the limited number of halal auditors. Institutional strengthening and public education are needed to ensure more effective and equitable halal certification. Furthermore, this study affirms that the obligation of halal certification serves as a form of protection for the constitutional rights of Muslim consumers, guaranteed by national law and reinforced by administrative and criminal sanctions for violators. From the perspective of maqashid syariah, halal certification not only functions as a formal legal mechanism but also serves as an instrument to safeguard the fundamental values of human life. It ensures product compliance with sharia principles, preserves faith, health, and community welfare, and prevents moral and economic harm.

Abstract

The spread of moneylenders (rentenir), online lending (pinjol), and online gambling (judol) in Central Java threatens the resilience of Muslim families both economically and through addictive behaviors. In rural areas such as Winong and several sub-districts in Pati, rentenir remain the primary source of financing for farmers and micro-entrepreneurs who are excluded from formal financial services, while judol proliferates through local networks and simple mobile devices. In contrast, in urban areas such as Genuk and several sub-districts in Semarang, pinjol has expanded rapidly due to digital penetration, lenient requirements, and aggressive promotion, typically used for urgent needs and non-productive consumption. Field data indicate that 38% of Muslim families in Pati have dealt with rentenir, 21% have engaged in judol, while 41% of Semarang families accessed pinjol in the past three years.This research uses a phenomenology approach, viewed from the perspective of maqasid sharia, covering two villages in Winong-Pati and two sub-districts in Genuuk -Semarang City Data were gathered through in-depth interviews with 24 informants—including household heads, spouses, religious leaders, and local officials—supplemented by participatory observation to capture family coping strategies under economic strain. Using Miles & Huberman’s interactive model, data analysis involved reduction, display, and conclusion drawing. Findings highlight two points. First, the practices of loan sharks, pinjol, and judol significantly undermine family resilience across economic stability, marital harmony, child-rearing quality, and socio-religious engagement. Second, although rural and urban contexts differ in forms of involvement, consequences converge on psychological distress, domestic conflict, weakened parenting, and declining social participation. These results underscore the relevance of maqasid al-shariah in protecting families from riba and gharar, reinforcing the ethical foundation of fiqh muamalah

Abstract

Sharia financial inclusion has significant urgency in economic and social development, especially in countries with a majority Muslim population. Small traders often face difficulties in obtaining financing to support and sustain the growth of their businesses. This descriptive qualitative research, employing an ethnographic approach, aims to document and explore Sharia financial inclusion initiatives carried out by Baitul Mal wa Tamwil Mandiri Mandiri Berkah Sejahtera Sharia (BMT MBS Sharia) in support of the sustainability of small trader businesses. Data collection techniques are through observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis involved data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the research show: 1) the implementation of financial inclusion carried out by BMT MBS Sharia by providing easy savings transactions with sharia contracts, implementing a pick-up system with a Jagongan communication pattern, giving direct prizes without drawing lots, and adjusting to the trading times of partners who use the Krempyeng market system in Javanese calendar market days,  2) BMT MBS Sharia adopts local cultural values because they are more acceptable and easy to adapt to the conditions of market traders, and 3) the impact of inclusion carried out by BMT MBS Sharia is that as many as 863 small traders from 15 traditional markets are disciplined in saving, no again trapped by loan sharks,  and has a priority to get a financing program from BMT MBS Sharia, and can set aside to share. In this way, the existence of BMT MBS Shariah, a micro-Shariah financial institution, can help small traders survive.

Abstract

The main problem with waqf land is its lack of formal legal status, as evidenced by the absence of a certificate. To provide legal certainty, the government issued a series of regulations that support the direction of waqf assets, ensuring they are guaranteed and legally maintained. However, in practice, their regulations have become fragmented, leading to overlapping regulations and a lack of synchronisation in institutional procedures. This condition is evident in the city of Tasikmalaya, where there is a data error and the name exchange between Wakif and Nazhir due to the lack of harmonization of regulations. This study aims to analyze the urgency of harmonizing regulations governing waqf land certification to achieve legal certainty and data accuracy. The approach used is a qualitative-normative case study design in Tasikmalaya City. Data was collected through document review, in-depth interviews, and field observations. The results of the study show that there is still disharmony and asynchrony between the practice of implementing waqf laws and regulations and other rules, such as those from ATR/BPN, BWI, and the Ministry of Religion. The implications of this study highlight the importance of establishing an integrated legal framework to prevent administrative errors and improve legal coordination and harmonization in the practice of waqf land certification. The contribution of this research lies in providing a normative basis for waqf regulatory governance reform in Indonesia.

Abstract

The development of Sharia-based business practices can be examined from two opposed perspectives: the Sharia label and Sharia substance. This article aims to analyze and compare the implementation of the ten Sharia principles outlined in DSN-MUI Fatwa No. 108/DSN-MUI/X/2016, which provide guidelines for Organizing Tourism Based on Sharia Principles, within hospitality business entities, including both Sharia-compliant hotels and conventional hotels. These ten principles serve as the theoretical framework and basis for the interview guidelines in this qualitative study. Data were obtained from seven hotel managers who served as informants. This study concludes that the interaction between business practices and religious (Sharia) principles gives rise to three categories of hotels. First, fully Sharia, referring to hotel models that implement Sharia principles comprehensively. Second, partially Sharia, referring to hotel models that implement Sharia principles selectively. Third, limited Sharia refers to hotel models that apply Sharia principles to a limited extent. Several factors influence these three categories: (1) internal rules or policies of the owners; (2) market or customer characteristics; (3) central and local government regulations; and (4) the Indonesian Hotel and Restaurant Association (PHRI). The urgency of this research lies in demonstrating that Sharia compliance does not always need to be expressed through a formal label; it may also be realized through substantive practices, which are more universally acceptable. Empirical evidence shows, first, that Sharia-labeled business practices are far fewer in number than those without such a label, and second, that upon closer and more profound observation, many unlabeled business practices are already Sharia-compliant. This phenomenon is referred to as substantive Sharia.
