There are 2 (two) kinds of motivation, namely intrinsic motivation (internal) and extrinsic motivation (external). Efforts to protect children's human rights as perpetrators of criminal acts of terrorism through the Criminal Policy approach can be carried out with 2 (two) approaches, namely the Penal Policy or efforts to overcome crimes with criminal law and Non-Penal Policies or efforts to overcome crimes outside the criminal law.

The Indonesian Ulema Council has issued a fatwa, one of which is a fatwa on the Ahmadiyya group to safeguard the orthodoxy of Sunni theology from deviant theology. This study aims to examine the MUI fatwa on Ahmadiyah from the perspective of Islamic law and human rights using the theory of religious freedom developed by Tore Lindholm. This normative juridical research uses a conceptual and historical approach. The primary data source is the Fatwa Compilation of the Indonesian Ulama Council Since 1975, books of interpretation, hadith, and fiqh. Data collection techniques using documentation and interviews. Interviews were conducted with informants from the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI). The results showed that the MUI Fatwa regarding the Ahmadiyah group was based on two arguments. The first argument is that Islamic law is based on the Qur'an, hadith, and ijma' according to the interpretation of classical scholars. The second argument is the limitation of human rights because the Ahmadiyya group can pose a threat to public order. MUI considers that any group or theology that is declared "deviant" and not by the Qur'an, hadith, and ijma' is considered a threat to public order. This means that MUI still uses classical literature as a reference for its fatwas, but at the same time understands public order as a principle of human rights. This position shows that MUI has a dual role, namely as an agent of modernization and conservatism in human rights discourse.

This paper analyzes the legal protection of children with special needs during the COVID-19 pandemic. This legal sociology research uses a qualitative approach. The research location is in Medan, North Sumatra province. The results show that the legal protection of children with special needs in Medan City, North Sumatra province related to education, rehabilitation, and social assistance is still not fulfilled even though there are regional regulations in the province of North Sumatra. This is due to inadequate facilities and infrastructure that hinder the fulfillment of these rights. This is contrary to Islamic law, where children's rights must be guaranteed, protected, and fulfilled by maqashid al-syari'ah, namely the maintenance of offspring. It also contradicts Article 5 paragraph (1) of Law Number 8 of 2016 concerning Persons with Disabilities, that persons with disabilities have the same rights in life and livelihood.

This study aims to determine the effectiveness of Regional Regulation Number 4 of 2015 concerning the Eradication of Prostitution in Batang Regency and to find out the legal consequences. The case raised in this study is a localization case that occurred in Karangasem Village, Batang Regency. Prostitution is an activity that violates religious norms and state regulations, this is because it has a negative impact on oneself and many people. Cases of prostitution are still rife in Batang Regency even though Batang Regency is a place where religious values and culture of decency are highly guarded. This is what makes the Batang district government act to tackle, eradicate, bring order and close these dirty businesses. Due to the existence of the prostitution place, it has violated several regional regulations, namely Regional Regulation No. 4 of 2015 concerning the Eradication of Prostitution. The existence of these regional regulations reflects that the local government is committed to eradicating prostitution but indeed enforcement is still minimal, judging by the fact that there are still many stalls or places that are used as prostitution practices. This type of research is empirical juridical with a statutory research approach. Sources of data in this study are primary data and secondary data obtained through observation, interviews, and documentation. While the analysis technique used by the author is a qualitative analysis technique. The results of the research on public legal awareness of the negative impact of prostitution are very low. The legal consequences of the lack of maximum legal awareness of the community towards the negative impact of prostitution are the rampant practice of prostitution, the failure of the laws made to tackle prostitution cases. It would be better if the local government to the village government made regular education so that the suppression of the number of prostitution decreases.

Human rights are rights that exist in every human being. These rights are obtained by every human being or can be called equal to one another. Persons with Disabilities have the same Human Rights as society in general. One of them is the Rights of Persons with Disabilities in the Pemalang District Court because the Pemalang District Court is a community service which is certainly the center of attention for every community. So the purpose of this study is to find out the implementation of the fulfillment of Accessibility Rights for Persons with Disabilities in the District Court based on existing regulations and Constitutional Rights. So that this research is expected to make public awareness more open to persons with disabilities and for the government to pay more attention. This study uses empirical juridical research methods with a qualitative approach that uses interactive analysis techniques to analyze the problems that exist in this study. The data used are primary data obtained from interviews and direct observation at the research location, as well as secondary data obtained from written reports and documents obtained from the literature. The results of this study indicate that the implementation of the fulfillment of Accessibility Rights for Persons with Disabilities at the Pemalang District Court is not in accordance with Constitutional Rights and regulations that have been made by the government. At the Pemalang District Court there are still some that have not been fulfilled in terms of physical and non-physical accessibility. And in reality, there are still many in our own society who view people with one-sided disabilities who cannot work and cannot do other positive things like society in general. So that many of their lives are deprived because they are hampered in terms of mobility. In the Regional Government itself, there are also those who have not made specific regulations regarding the rights of Persons with Disabilities. Which regulations must be made in each region to support the survival of Persons with Disabilities.

Exploitation of children has changed the perspective and morality of humans towards criminal law, at the same time government policies have made a clear regulation on the enforcement of legal protection for children who are victims of exploitation. The study is based on the argument that there is no law enforcement on the practice of child exploitation so that exploitation continues to occur continuously. This study applies a literature study approach and policy review and various data sourced both online and offline which will later be able to provide an objective picture of how child exploitation is in law from the perspective of Islamic family law. As has been found in previous research on punishment for perpetrators of child exploitation, it has ignored the justice of children victims of exploitation by their parents, close people and community agencies. Law enforcement cannot guarantee absolute rights for children autonomously, this is due to many considerations so that legal protection for child victims of exploitation is very difficult to enforce. Thus, a discussion is needed to provide legal protection for child victims of exploitation with the perspective of Islamic family law.
