Abstract

This article provides a scientific and theoretical analysis of the principles of civil proceedings and issues of their improvement. In particular, the opinions of legal scholars regarding the concept of the principle of legality and its significance in civil proceedings were analyzed and a scientific definition of this principle was given. Similarly, a scientific and theoretical analysis of the principle of free law initiating and activating civil proceedings and the principle of adversarial nature of the parties and their role in judicial practice, the opinions of legal scholars on this issue, as well as a comparative study of the civil procedural legislation of foreign countries and scientific and theoretical conclusions and proposals were given. In the article, the author paid special attention to the issue of the inadmissibility of abuse of procedural rights and highlighted its specifics. Having analyzed how abuse of procedural rights manifests itself and having studied scientific and theoretical concepts on this matter, a scientific definition of this concept was developed. Also, on issues of principles of civil proceedings, a comparative study was conducted of national civil procedural legislation with the civil procedural legislation of foreign countries, in particular the Constitutions of Japan, Greece, Bulgaria, Germany and the civil procedural legislation of the Russian Federation, Estonia, Armenia, Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan.

Abstract

Agricultural zakat is an important tool within the Islamic economic system that has significant potential to enhance food security and reduce social inequality. However, its implementation at the national level often encounters regulatory and governance challenges. This study aims to conduct a comparative analysis of agricultural zakat regulations in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Brunei Darussalam, focusing on aspects such as nisab (the minimum threshold), zakat rates, types of crops subject to zakat, payment times, obligatory subjects, managing institutions, and the effectiveness of zakat utilization. The method employed is a comparative literature review that analyzes legal documents, zakat institution regulations, statistical reports, and relevant academic publications. The findings indicate that while the three countries share significant legal similarities, they differ in their institutional approaches: Indonesia relies on national legislation, though it faces low compliance challenges; Malaysia has relatively effective state regulations but experiences variations between regions; and Brunei maintains a consistent centralized system despite its smaller economic scale. This analysis confirms that the effectiveness of agricultural zakat is influenced more by institutional governance and community compliance than by differences in jurisprudential interpretations (fiqh). The study concludes that an integrative model that combines the strengths of national regulation, local institutional engagement, and consistent application of Sharia law is essential for developing agricultural zakat regulations in ASEAN.

Abstract

The urgency of this research is to build a spatial planning control model capable of integrating spatial governance between local government, customary villages, and the private sector. This is due to the rampant violations of spatial planning in tourism investment activities, which tend to disregard local wisdom values such as Asta Kosala Kosali and Tri Hita Karana. The purpose of this research is to analyze the effectiveness of spatial planning regulations in tourism investment activities in Bali and to formulate an integrated spatial planning control system model to support local wisdom and sustainable development. The method used in this study employs a critical qualitative approach, with data collection techniques including observation, in-depth interviews with relevant agencies and stakeholders. The location was selected using purposive sampling based on tourism investment activities occurring at the research location, namely Denpasar City and Badung Regency. Data processing and analysis techniques were performed using qualitative description. The research results indicate that the integrated spatial planning control model to support sustainable tourism investment is by combining legal regulations with certainty, the existence of planning and control instruments for spatial planning that consider sustainable social and economic aspects, accompanied by coordinated governance and institutions.

Abstract

The rapid advancement of digital technology has reshaped global education and introduced new opportunities and challenges for Qur’anic transmission through ijazah talaqqi with sanad (certified chain of transmission). This study explores the prospects and challenges of authorizing sanad talaqqi in the digital era. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed through library research. Data were collected from journal articles, conference proceedings, books, and working papers. The digital era offers various opportunities, including access to recorded talaqqi sessions, flexible modes of Qur’anic instruction, wider accessibility to sanad talaqqi studies, and the promotion of lifelong Qur’anic learning. However, significant challenges remain, such as issues of teacher integrity and competence, the erosion of traditional etiquettes in Qur’anic transmission, weaknesses in assessment and authorization mechanisms, leniency in conferring sanad, uneven quality among sanad holders, and limitations in technological proficiency. Reforming sanad talaqqi practices in the digital age requires a holistic approach that upholds the principles of talaqqi mushāfahah while safeguarding the ethical and spiritual values of Islamic knowledge transmission. This study contributes to the discourse on modernizing Qur’anic transmission in alignment with the rapidly evolving digital landscape.

Abstract

This research analyzes the role and authority of the National Land Agency (BPN) in resolving communal land rights (hak ulayat) disputes among the indigenous communities in Bali from a normative juridical perspective. Communal land rights, as the communal rights of indigenous communities over land, often lead to conflicts with development interests and individual ownership. The BPN, as the authorized institution in land administration, plays a crucial role in mediating, facilitating, and resolving these disputes. This study employs a literature review approach, examining various relevant laws and regulations, court decisions, academic journals, and books. The findings indicate that the existing legal framework does not yet fully provide adequate protection for the communal land rights of Balinese indigenous communities. Therefore, harmonization of regulations and a more participatory approach in dispute resolution are needed. The implication of this research is the importance of comprehensive recognition and protection of communal land rights within the national land law framework.

Abstract

Drug rehabilitation in Asia remains dominated by coercive approaches that often disregard the human body as a central medium of healing. This paper introduces the concept of Embodied Recovery, grounded in Merleau-Ponty’s phenomenology of embodiment and Ibn Sīnā’s model of sensory and cognitive perception, to examine the sensory and bodily dimensions of rehabilitation. Using a desk review approach, this study aims (1) to identify the characteristics and implications of coercive rehabilitation practices across Asia; (2) to analyze the relationship between bodily sensory experience and the recovery process; and (3) to assess the application of human rights–based rehabilitation within the Maqasid al-Shariah framework. Findings reveal that neglecting sensory and embodied experiences weakens cognitive and moral restoration, as the senses serve as the primary gateway to reason (‘aql). When the body’s sensory engagement is suppressed, rehabilitation risks perpetuating psychological distress and spiritual disconnection. The study concludes that integrating phenomenological and Islamic perspectives offers a more ethical, human-centered model of recovery one that recognizes sensory awareness as fundamental to holistic well-being and human dignity in accordance with Maqasid al-Shariah.

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to further examine the role and strategy of universities in building legal awareness of Muslim consumers on the importance of halal product guarantees both related to food, beverages, used goods and other products, so that Muslim consumers feel safe and comfortable in utilizing/consuming the products needed both imported and exported to other regions/countries. In this research, the author uses a qualitative approach that emphasizes the importance of developing and compiling theories that are always rooted in inductive-empirical thinking. Regarding data collection techniques, the author used participant observation, interviews, and secondary data searches. The role of Indonesian and Malaysian Universities in building legal awareness of halal product guarantees, currently focuses on education and training, research and development, and collaboration with government and industry. For the strategies used, the two countries, namely Malaysia and Indonesia, have differences in application. The strategy used by Malaysia is more about strengthening halal legal awareness through a multidisciplinary approach, stronger collaboration with industry, and mature halal infrastructure. Meanwhile, the strategy used by Indonesia at this time is still focused on counseling and socialization, cooperation with the Halal Product Guarantee Agency (BPJPH), and the development of halal infrastructure.

Abstract

The Cash On Delivery (COD) system is one of the payment methods frequently used, in which consumers pay for the ordered products upon receiving them. Although it provides convenience, this system often causes problems, especially related to transaction cancellations by consumers after delivery has been made by the business operator. Such cancellations can result in significant losses for the business operator, both in terms of operational costs, shipping, and business reputation. Therefore, it is important to analyze how legal protection for business operators is regulated in the context of Law No. 8 of 1999 on Consumer Protection and also to consider the perspective of Islamic economic law principles, which can provide guidance for fairer business practices. The type of research used is library research with a normative juridical approach, which refers to research based on legal norms contained in legislation and the principles of Islamic economic law. In Law No. 8 of 1999, legal protection is regulated for business actors against losses caused by the unilateral cancellation of transactions by consumers, although the consumer's right to cancel transactions is still recognized. On the other hand, in Islamic economic law, the principles of justice, good faith, and prohibition of uncertainty require transparency and clear policies regarding transaction cancellations.

Abstract

This study explores the integration of Balinese local wisdom values into the development of environmental law as a means to achieve a sustainable, equitable, and culturally rooted environmental governance system. The research adopts a socio-legal approach, examining how centralistic and sectoral environmental regulations have often failed to preserve ecological balance due to neglect of local traditions and community participation. By analyzing key philosophical foundations such as Tri Hita Karana, Tat Twam Asi, Rwa Bhineda, and Karma Phala, the paper argues that local wisdom embodies moral, spiritual, and ecological principles that can strengthen the effectiveness of environmental law. These values not only serve as ethical guidelines but also as practical frameworks for harmonizing human–nature–God relationships in environmental management. The study concludes that integrating local wisdom into regional legal instruments is essential to enhance community involvement, empower traditional institutions, and ensure environmental justice. Such integration offers a model for developing an adaptive and culturally resonant environmental legal system, potentially replicable across Indonesia.

Abstract

This study examines the transformation of zakat assistance from one off relief to sustained, productive support for asnaf through a long-term economic sustainability. The study aims to analyze how productive zakat strengthens beneficiaries as participants in an inclusive socioeconomy, to map the Shariah legal framework that enables productive modalities, and to assess the practical implementation of productive zakat by Malaysian zakat institutions and partner agencies over time. Using multi wave data from program records, beneficiary surveys, and follow up interviews, the findings reveal that access to Shariah compliant startup capital paired with mentoring, financial literacy, and values based entrepreneurship training is essential for expanding market participation, raising business survival rates, and improving household resilience. Outcomes are further enhanced when beneficiaries adopt simple digital tools such as mobile bookkeeping, cashless payments, online marketplaces, social media promotion, and data driven monitoring to increase reach and operational efficiency. Existing frameworks, including state zakat enactments, risk sharing, and transparency in Islamic jurisprudence, support this transition by enabling compliant financing, structured capacity building, and accountable oversight. Nevertheless, policy refinements are needed to strengthen beneficiary protection, data privacy, standardized impact measurement, and clearer guidance on disbursement modalities and performance thresholds. The study also highlights regional and international platforms, including OIC and G20 forums, as strategic opportunities for aligning standards, crowding in partnerships, and scaling best practices. By leveraging productive capital, digital enablement, and cross sector collaboration, zakat institutions can accelerate the journey from grant to growth and contribute to sustainable and inclusive economic development for asnaf.
