Abstract

Good governance plays a crucial role in influencing economic growth in a region, which subsequently contributes to poverty reduction. However, high poverty levels and uneven economic growth can negatively impact local communities. This study examines the effects of transparency, accountability, participation, and equity on poverty alleviation in West Aceh Regency. A mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative and qualitative techniques with a triangulation design, was employed. The study involved 379 respondents who were major recipients of social assistance from three sub-districts: Kaway XVI, Samatiga, and Woyla. Data were collected through questionnaires, and additional insights were obtained from three government officials involved in poverty alleviation efforts at BAPEDDA West Aceh Regency. Data analysis utilized multiple linear regression with SPSS 22. The findings indicate that transparency significantly and positively influences poverty alleviation by ensuring that aid distribution is targeted and effectively managed. Accountability also has a significant positive effect, as it integrates community involvement from planning to program evaluation. Participation contributes positively by aligning programs with local needs and enhancing implementation success. Lastly, equity positively impacts poverty alleviation by promoting fair resource distribution, enabling programs to effectively reach all societal levels, including vulnerable groups.

Abstract

The professional zakat (income zakat) calculation system in Indonesia is stipulated by two authoritative sources: the Indonesian Ulema Council (Majelis Ulama Indonesia/MUI) Fatwa No. 3 of 2003, which states that professional zakat is calculated based on net income (after basic needs are deducted) annually; and the National Zakat Agency (Badan Amil Zakat Nasional/BAZNAS) Decree No. 1 of 2024, which stipulates that professional zakat is calculated based on gross income monthly and annually. This divergence presents a fundamental problem in the application of professional zakat in Indonesia. Therefore, this research aims to analyze the professional zakat calculation system from the perspective of both MUI and BAZNAS. This study employs an empirical-normative legal research method. Primary data were obtained through interviews, and secondary data were collected from primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials, all analyzed qualitatively. The results indicate that professional zakat in Indonesia can be calculated from either net income (by deducting essential living expenses such as food, clothing, shelter, dependents’ needs including healthcare and education, and then paying 2.5% zakat if it reaches the nisab equivalent to 85 grams of gold annually), or from gross income (by paying 2.5% zakat at the time of income receipt, provided it meets the monthly nisab of IDR 6,859,349.00 or the annual nisab of IDR 82,312,725.00).

Abstract

This study examines the Tangerang Religious Court's ruling in case number 1189/Pdt.G/2023/PA.Tnk, focusing on child custody disputes arising from apostasy within marital dissolution. The research investigates how Islamic civil law operates within Indonesia's judicial framework, particularly when religious conversion becomes a determining factor in custody arrangements. Employing a normative juridical approach alongside descriptive analytical methods, the investigation draws primary data from court rulings, trial documentation, and judicial reasoning articulated by the panel of judges. Secondary sources encompass statutory regulations, Islamic jurisprudence literature, scholarly journals, and pertinent reference materials. The theoretical foundation rests on Classical Islamic Law principles articulated by Imam Syafi'i, which address the legal implications of apostasy on marital bonds and parental rights, complemented by legal interpretation frameworks developed by Dr. Yahya Harahap, SH., MH., regarding procedural justice in religious courts. The research reveals tensions between protecting children's religious upbringing and applying established custody principles that typically favor maternal care for young children. Findings demonstrate how judges navigate between statutory law, Islamic jurisprudence, and the best interests of the child when apostasy disrupts conventional custody determinations.

Abstract

This study investigates the dispensation of marriage for minors, a request for leniency granted by the Religious Court to prospective brides and grooms who are not yet of legal age to marry. This study intends to examine the basis for consideration used by judges in deciding and granting requests for marriage dispensation in Decision Number 82/Pdt.P/2024/PA.PROB, as well as examining the impact of marriage dispensation on mothers and children born, especially in the context of legal protection based on the Child Protection Law. In this study, a normative juridical approach is used to analyze the legal principles underlying the judge's decision and aspects of protecting children's rights. The findings suggest that the basis for judges' considerations is influenced by sociological and sharia factors, and assesses the principles of benefit and protection of the child's future. Furthermore, the impact of marriage dispensation on mothers and children carries the risk of violating children's basic rights, including the right to education, protection from violence, and the right to health, thus requiring serious attention from the legal protection system to ensure these rights are optimally protected. This research emphasizes the importance of a legal approach that prioritizes substantive justice and protection of vulnerable groups in the marriage dispensation decision-making process.

Abstract

This research examines the personal data breach case during the East Jakarta regional elections and analyzes the legal responsibilities of the General Elections Commission (KPU) from the perspective of Law Number 27 of 2022 concerning Personal Data Protection (PDP Law). Employing a juridical-normative method, statutory-regulatory approach, and conceptual framework, this study investigates the hacking incident involving the Permanent Voters List (DPT) database by a hacker using the pseudonym "Jimbo," who allegedly accessed data of more than 200 million voters. The case violates the principle of legal protection for citizens' privacy rights, as stipulated in the 1945 Constitution and the PDP Law. Within the framework of Satjipto Rahardjo's legal protection theory, personal data protection transcends mere legal norms and must be implemented substantially to ensure justice and public security. This research concludes that KPU's negligence in ensuring cybersecurity constitutes a legal violation and demands accountability alongside strengthened digital data protection policies within Indonesia's democratic system.

Abstract

Child exploitation through forced begging in Bandar Lampung City constitutes a severe violation of fundamental rights, substantially undermining both physical and psychological development. Criminal networks systematically manipulate vulnerable minors for economic gain, representing a grave breach of child labor protection statutes. This research examines law enforcement mechanisms targeting exploitation perpetrators, identifies systemic barriers, and proposes enhanced legal protection frameworks. The investigation employs a sociological-juridical methodology, utilizing documentary analysis, ethnographic observations, and structured interviews with law enforcement personnel, social service practitioners, and child advocacy specialists. Analysis draws upon child protection theory and progressive jurisprudence principles. Findings reveal enforcement mechanisms remain fragmented, reactive, and institutionally unsupported. Primary impediments encompass inter-agency coordination deficits, inadequate street children documentation, and insufficient rehabilitation funding. The research advocates for policy restructuring and systematic strengthening of child protection mechanisms through interdisciplinary collaboration. The study's significance lies in advancing more integrated and effective legal safeguards for exploited children across municipal and national jurisdictions.

Abstract

Advances in information technology in the digital era have given rise to social media as a new means for people to voice their opinions, including criticizing the government. However, this freedom of expression often conflicts with legal aspects, particularly the provisions of Law Number 11 of 2008 concerning Electronic Information and Transactions (ITE), which was amended by Law Number 19 of 2016, specifically Article 27 paragraph (3) and Article 28 paragraph (2). This research aims to examine how these two articles are implemented in responding to criticism of the government conveyed through social media and the extent to which legal protection is provided to citizens. The focus of the research was directed toward the case of Bima Yudho Saputro, who was reported for criticizing conditions in his home region through TikTok. This research adopts a normative juridical method with an analytical approach to legal and case research. The findings suggest that these articles are often misinterpreted and risk criminalizing legally valid forms of criticism, despite not fulfilling the elements of a crime. Legal protection, both preventive and repressive, remains ineffective due to weak regulations, insufficient understanding among law enforcement officials, and limited public access to legal aid. Therefore, regulatory reform and institutional strengthening are needed to ensure that freedom of expression remains protected within a democratic, rule-of-law system.
