Abstract

The ongoing Houthi insurgency in Yemen has led to severe humanitarian impacts, particularly affecting women and children as the most vulnerable groups. This research examines the protection of human rights for women and children amidst continuous violations committed by the Houthi armed movement. Using a qualitative field research approach, the study is based on direct interviews with humanitarian workers, legal experts, and victims, supported by the analysis of human rights reports and international legal instruments. The findings reveal that despite the existence of frameworks, such as Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) and on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW), protection remains ineffective due to political instability, the dominance of non-state actors, and limited access for humanitarian organizations. Key violations include child soldier recruitment, sexual violence, forced displacement, and denial of access to education and healthcare. The study concludes that stronger international monitoring mechanisms, targeted sanctions, and the integration of gender- and child-sensitive frameworks into Yemen’s peacebuilding agenda are urgently needed. This study contributes a field-based legal analysis of the systemic failures in protecting the rights of women and children in armed conflict, and emphasizes the importance of a more effective international legal response in the context of the dominance of non-state armed actors.

Abstract

The main problem addressed in this study lies in the contradiction between the enduring cultural practice of pangolo sompa in Bugis marriage traditions and the growing perception that it may conflict with Islamic law in the modern era. This research aims to analyze the existence and transformation of pangolo sompa in Bugis marriage customs in Bone Regency and to examine its implementation from the perspective of al-‘adah muhakkamah in Islamic law. This study is a field research employing a qualitative approach. The data sources consist of community leaders, religious figures, and married couples in Bone Regency. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation, and analyzed using descriptive qualitative methods through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that pangolo sompa remains significant as a symbol of honor, responsibility, and kinship, although its meaning has shifted due to modernization and changing religious interpretations. The novelty of this study lies in demonstrating that pangolo sompa, when viewed through al-‘adah muhakkamah, aligns with Islamic legal principles as long as it avoids discrimination and excessive burden. The study contributes academically by strengthening the global discourse on the integration of local wisdom and Islamic jurisprudence, highlighting how local customs can coexist harmoniously with religious law in various Muslim societies and offering a model for understanding cultural adaptation within Islamic legal frameworks.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of family financial management in contemporary premarital guidance and its relevance to the realization of a sakinah family from the perspective of maqashid al-shari‘ah. The background of this research stems from the increasing number of marital conflicts and divorces caused by poor financial literacy and economic instability among couples, highlighting the urgent need for premarital education that addresses financial issues. Employing a qualitative approach with a descriptive method, this research collects data through interviews, observations, and documentation at the Office of Religious Affairs (KUA) Tanjung Raya, which uniquely integrates family financial management into its premarital guidance program. The findings reveal that such integration significantly enhances the financial awareness and responsibility of prospective couples, reduces the potential for economic-based conflicts, and supports sustainable family welfare. The counseling model not only addresses practical financial challenges but also embodies the principles of maqashid al-shari‘ah by protecting religion, life, intellect, lineage, and wealth (hifzh al-din, al-nafs, al-‘aql, al-nasl, and al-mal). Therefore, this study concludes that family financial management in premarital guidance serves as a strategic and preventive instrument for realizing the objectives of Sharia and achieving a sakinah family in the modern context. Academically, this research contributes to the discourse on integrating financial literacy into Islamic family law and premarital education.

Abstract

This research explores the tradition of palangkahan money in marriage practices in Nagari Lubuak Batingkok, Lima Puluh Kota Regency. The objective of this study is to examine the cultural and social significance of the tradition, focusing on its role in family relationships and its alignment with Minangkabau customs. A qualitative methodology was employed, using interviews and field observations with local adat leaders, community elders, and knowledgeable informants. The findings reveal that palangkahan money is not just a financial exchange but a symbolic gesture intended to maintain emotional harmony between siblings, particularly when the younger sibling marries before the older one. The amount of palangkahan money is flexible, varying according to family agreements and the economic capabilities of the parties involved. This adaptability is crucial in maintaining the tradition's relevance in modern times. The study concludes that the tradition of palangkahan money plays a significant role in preserving cultural values, fostering mutual respect, and ensuring family harmony. It also highlights the interaction between Minangkabau cultural norms and Islamic teachings, showing how the practice adapts to contemporary religious and social frameworks. The academic contribution of this study lies in offering a nuanced perspective on how local customs persist and evolve within the context of modern social dynamics. The research also underscores the importance of qualitative fieldwork in capturing the lived experiences of individuals within a specific cultural context.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of the judge as a mediator in the resolution of divorce cases in Indonesian Religious Courts, focusing on the effectiveness and challenges faced in the mediation process. Using a qualitative approach, the study collects data through in-depth interviews with judges, mediators, and parties involved in divorce cases, as well as an analysis of relevant legal documents. The findings show that judges play a central role in the mediation process, both as neutral facilitators and as active mediators who can influence the final decision. However, the success of mediation largely depends on the mediator's skills, understanding of the existing laws, and the willingness of the parties to cooperate in the mediation process. Additionally, there are challenges related to the limited training of judges in mediation skills and the lack of clarity in some legal aspects governing mediation in Religious Courts. The study concludes that to improve the effectiveness of mediation in divorce cases, it is necessary to enhance judges' capacities through specialized training and to refine regulations that support better mediation practices. The academic contribution of this research is to provide a deeper understanding of the dynamics of the judge’s role as a mediator in family law contexts and to suggest policies that could enhance mediation practices in Indonesian Religious Courts for more peaceful and fair resolutions.

Abstract

This study examines the jurisprudential status of mut’ah marriage within Sunni and Shiʿi legal traditions from the perspective of maqasid al-shariʿah. The research employs a comparative doctrinal legal methodology with a qualitative approach through the analysis of primary Islamic legal sources, including the Qurʾan, hadith, classical juristic treatises, and literature on usul al-fiqh. The maqasid-based ethical analysis was also applied in this study to evaluate the implications of temporary marriage on the protection of lineage, human dignity, and social order. The findings reveal that Sunni jurisprudence generally considers mut’ah a prohibited practice based on the doctrine of naskh and the claimed ijmaʿ of classical jurists, whereas Shiʿi jurisprudence maintains its permissibility based on the continuing validity of Qurʾan 4:24 and differing interpretations of prophetic traditions. Despite these doctrinal differences, the study demonstrates that both schools attempt to justify their positions through broader objectives of Islamic law, particularly the protection of family structure and moral order. The study concludes that maqasid al-shariʿah provides an important analytical framework for understanding how Islamic legal traditions negotiate textual authority, ethical considerations, and social realities within Islamic family law. By integrating doctrinal, ethical, and socio-legal perspectives within comparative Islamic jurisprudence, this research contributes to contemporary Islamic legal discourse through a cross-sectarian and maqasid-oriented analysis of mut’ah marriage.

Abstract

This article aims to analyze the role of AI-based family counseling within the context of contemporary Islamic family law, particularly in expanding access to religious and legal guidance through digital technologies such as digital fatwa services, online dispute resolution, and AI-assisted advisory systems. This study employs a qualitative field-based approach supported by interdisciplinary literature on Islamic family law, maqasid al-shari’ah, online dispute resolution, and algorithmic accountability. The findings indicate that AI technologies have significant potential to enhance accessibility, efficiency, and consistency in family counseling services; however, they also introduce various risks, including data privacy concerns, gender bias in algorithms, the provision of decontextualized advice, challenges to established religious authority, and weak accountability mechanisms. The study concludes that AI should not be positioned as an autonomous source of religious or legal authority but rather as a supportive tool that facilitates access to information, assists in early-stage dispute identification, provides procedural guidance, and directs users to qualified human experts, thereby preserving the central role of human authority in Islamic legal processes. The academic contribution of this article lies in proposing a maqasid-based framework for algorithmic family justice, which evaluates the use of AI based on the protection of religion, life, intellect, lineage, and property, while also emphasizing dignity and the protection of vulnerable family members as a normative foundation for the ethical integration of AI in Islamic family counseling.
