Abstract

This research is motivated by Article 171 KHI and Article 832 of the Civil Code concerning inheritance groups, it is explained in these articles that people or families who are entitled to receive inheritance include 15 groups of men and 10 groups of women, which groups are the closest people to the heir. According to Islamic law, a child out of wedlock, whether a child of adultery or li'an, is not entitled to inherit from his father's lineage and vice versa if the child out of wedlock dies, then the father cannot inherit from the child. However, when viewed from a humanitarian point of view, he can still receive inheritance from his father, but not by dividing the inheritance of children in general, but by grants, and the share may not be more than 1/3 of the inheritance. Meanwhile, according to civil law, a child out of wedlock gets a share of his father's inheritance as much as 1/3, ½, and ¾ of the share of a legitimate child depending on what class of heirs the child lives together after the heir dies. As for the source of Islamic inheritance law which is used as a guideline in the distribution of inheritance, it is listed in the Qur'an in the letter An Nisaa verses 7, 11, 12 and 176, and in the letter An Naml verse 16. Meanwhile, civil inheritance law is regulated in book II concerning objects (Van Zaken) which contains object law (Zaken Recht) and inheritance law (Erfrecht).

Abstract

Ghana fares well on some indicators of financial inclusion compared to other Sub-Saharan African countries, and is comparable to lower middle-income countries. However, it lacks a clear strategy for financial inclusion and development of microfinance institutions (MFIs) and other methodologies of making financial services more widely available. This paper summarizes the situation and development of microfinance institutions in Ghana, reviews progress and problems in implementing the BoG regulations for MFIs, highlights current risks and challenges, and proposes strategies for mitigating risks. The analysis includes three different levels: BoG and Government of Ghana (GoG); MFIs and their associations; and the public. It is aimed at providing information on the complex issues in the microfinance sector as a basis for dialogue on concrete reforms.

Abstract

This study tries to compare the housing loan financing system between commercial banks and Islamic banks. The purpose of this comparison is to find out the differences in the housing loan financing system by Bank Mandiri KCP Majalaya and Bank Syariah Indonesia (BSI) as samples. Many people know that conventional banks use interest rates which are used as interest and Islamic banks do not use them. This analysis compares the conditions that apply, the Housing Loan process is implemented, the Akad or Initial Requirements, Installment Calculations, and the care of customers who are late paying or paying prematurely. Based on the analysis that has been done, it can be concluded that the comparison of lending to Mandiri Conventional Banks and Murabahah Financing at Indonesian Sharia Banks has many similarities in the procedures and requirements files. It's just that the Akad/agreement aspect has a difference. Conventional Banks fully use the Interest System. Meanwhile, Islamic Banks apply a Murabahah Contract with a profit sharing system from service profits and real transactions.

Abstract

The Qur'an says man is the noblest of all creation. The entire universe is made for him and serves his goals. In any system, it is important to Examine the status of man in society and the role of the state in connection to the higher moral and ethical principles of life as well as the idea of the Divine Being in the social order. An administrative system that benefits its citizens' well-being is known as a welfare state. The city-state of Medina established by the Holy Prophet Mohammad [PBUH] is one of the best examples of it.  It should be remembered that the Holy Prophet (PBUH) is the final messenger sent by Allah and his ultimate mission and objective was to improve the moral and spiritual standards of the people. Therefore, God's wisdom demanded that the features of both prophethood and leadership should be combined in his personality. The life of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), who is the last and final messenger, can be separated into two parts: life in Makkah and life in Medina. While the former was mainly focused on the monotheistic preaching of Islam and the latter was largely concerned with the founding of the city-state of Medina.  The prophet performed various characters during the ten years of the Medina period. Muhammad (PBUH) dedicated his life to organizing and developing his newly founded state in all aspects. Its only possible structure and foundation were on Divine Guidance (Wahi), as it had to eliminate all types of ills and develop all types of values and excellencies. In this paper, we'll try to examine the prophet`s administrative and constitutional policies during the governance of the city-state of Medina.

Abstract

This research explores the concept of honesty in a more specific business context, namely in the case study of Cendana Village cocoa seed traders and explores the relevance of the importance of the principle of honesty in the Koran. Cendana Village is a clear example where Islamic principles, including honesty, are implemented in community life and economic activity, with special emphasis on verses that specifically underline honesty in a business context. The research method used is qualitative with a descriptive analysis approach. Primary data was obtained through direct interviews with Cendana Village cocoa seed traders, secondary data was collected through various sources, including library literature related to business, ethics and Islamic principles, as well as print and electronic media which contained articles related to the cocoa business and the principles of honesty in Islam. Cendana Village cocoa seed traders run their business with integrity, transparency and commitment to customer interests and long-term business sustainability. Thus, these traders become a good example for other business practitioners in applying the principle of honesty in their activities. Traders understand that honesty is not only a moral value, but also a solid foundation for building good relationships with customers and ensuring long-term business success.

This change was important by the rights of prisoners instituted by the United Nations. Base on the above information, the conditions of many prisons in Ghana as well as the prisoners are nothing to write home about. Prisoners’ rights and freedoms are always infringed upon of which Muslim Women Prisoners are most often the victims. This article sought to find out the attitudes of Muslims towards Muslim Women in the Prisons.

Abstract

In 2011, the popular revolt brought about change in the Tunisian presidential palace as it transitioned from authoritarianism to a condition of liminality. However, following the Tunisian President's proclamation, only the democratic success story of the Arab Spring is under jeopardy after ten years of democratic transition. This article seeks to show how the President has increased his authority by invoking Article 80 of the Constitution. It also explains how this action violates the constitution and has a detrimental effect on the political environment. As a result, Tunisia's Islamic movement has dominated the political landscape of the nation since the 2011 uprising and is seen as the leader of the Islamic identity and democratic movement. Finally, it comes to a conclusion that a coup from the Tunisian president occurred amid Rashid Al-Ghannouchi, the Movement's founder and speaker of the Parliament, showing leniency toward Islamic doctrine. Although it appears that the situation is still precarious, Al-Nahda leadership is once again playing a crucial role in fostering a stable political environment through discussion. The main and secondary data in this article have been evaluated using the Discourse Analysis method and its Critical Discourse Analysis method.

Abstract

الظلم ظاهرة قبيحة في الطبيعة البشرية، وكثيراً ما يعاني الإنسان بطبيعته الضعيفة من هذا المرض المهلك. والظلم الاجتماعي أحد أنواع ه‍‍‍ذا الظلم، والذي يتمثل في التعدي على ممتلكات أفراد المجتمع أو حياتهم أو سمعتهم. وقد حرمت الشريعة الإسلامية على المسلمين هذا النوع من الظلم، وحذرت مرتكبيه من الوعيد الشديد في الدنيا والآخرة. إن الظلم الاجتماعي له أسباب كثيرة، منها ضعف الإيمان و التقوى والجهل وانتشار النزعات العرقية والعنصرية واللغوية بين الناس.وكلما انتشر الظلم الاجتماعي في المجتمع، تفككت الأسر، وانكسرت أواصر الأخوة ، واتجهت الأمة نحو الدمار.ولكن على الرغم من ذلك، يمكننا الحد من هذا النوع من الظلم وعلاجه بالتوبة والإنابة إلى الله، ورد مظالم الناس، وتعزيز الإيمان والتقوى، والاهتمام بالآخرة، وإقامة الحدود والقصاص في المجتمع الإسلامي.
