Abstract

The purpose of this research is to understand the impact of digital da'wah on the understanding and acceptance of Islamic law among Generation Z. The background of this research is the major shift in how religion is conveyed through digital platforms, leading to a shift in authority to non-institutional figures such as social media influencers. In addition, the younger generation is more exposed to diverse views of Islamic law without a central authority. This study uses a qualitative, dual-case study design, collecting data through in-depth interviews and participatory observation of social media activities. The research findings show that platforms such as YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram have become the primary channels for proselytizing among Generation Z, who prefer flexible, interactive, and accessible content. However, the diversity and conflict of views on Islamic law in the digital world create confusion about halal and haram. This research also highlights the need for standardization and supervision in digital da'wah to maintain the consistency of Islamic teachings. This research's contribution offers insights into the changing nature of religious authority in the digital age, as well as recommendations for religious institutions to use social media more effectively and provide authentic guidance.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the legal and social implications of nikah siri (unregistered marriages) in Indonesia, particularly regarding the protection of civil rights for women and children. The practice of nikah siri creates a conflict between Islamic law, which considers it valid, and state law, which does not recognise it, resulting in significant social and legal consequences. This qualitative research uses descriptive-analytical methods, including in-depth interviews, field observations, and documentation, and focuses on couples, religious leaders, and KUA officers. The study identifies three main findings: the separation between religious law and state law, with civil rights unprotected; economic and administrative barriers that drive individuals to choose nikah siri despite its legal risks; and the legal and social vulnerabilities of women and children born from nikah siri marriages. The research contributes to the field by integrating Islamic ethics, state law, and maqashid al-syari’ah to propose a more inclusive and ethical legal framework. It recommends reforms to reduce bureaucratic barriers and to promote the legal recognition of nikah siri marriages, safeguarding the rights of all parties involved.

Abstract

This study aims to explore how Islamic law can adapt to contemporary global challenges while maintaining its foundational principles. The rapid advancements in technology, digital economies, and evolving social dynamics pose significant challenges to traditional Islamic jurisprudence, which often lacks the tools to address these modern concerns. By utilizing a qualitative-contextual design with a normative-philosophical approach, this research critically examines classical fiqh texts and engages with contemporary legal, social, and ethical issues. The findings reveal that Islamic law must be developed contextually through ijtihad, with a focus on the maqashid al-shariah. That usul al-fiqh must be renewed to address modern challenges. Additionally, Islamic institutions are increasingly revising curricula and issuing research-based fatwas to address issues such as fintech, gender rights, and bioethics. The integration of rational, scientific, and social considerations within the legal process highlights the importance of aligning Islamic law with modern realities. This study contributes by providing a comprehensive methodology for interpreting Islamic law in light of contemporary challenges and offers practical recommendations for future legal reforms. Future research should explore other global issues, such as AI, environmental law, and the globalization of Islamic law.

Abstract

This study aims to critically examine the legal and socio-economic implications of ball thrift trade in Indonesia using the principle of Sadd ad-Dzari’ah in Islamic law. The rapid growth of second-hand clothing imports has raised concerns regarding transparency, public health, and the protection of domestic industries. Many transactions occur with minimal regulatory oversight, exposing consumers and society to potential harm while benefiting low-income households economically. This research employs a normative legal research design with a qualitative approach, analyzing Islamic jurisprudence, scholarly literature, fatwas, and relevant regulations to evaluate the permissibility and consequences of ball thrift trade. The findings indicate that Sadd ad-Dzari’ah provides a preventive framework to block transactions that may lead to harm, emphasizing the need for regulatory caution; the inherent gharar in opaque bales can mislead consumers and increase health risks, including microbial contamination and chemical exposure; and illegal imports result in significant state revenue losses and negatively affect domestic textile industries, contributing to unemployment and decreased GDP. This study contributes to Islamic commercial law and public policy by integrating normative fiqh principles with practical considerations, recommending stricter transparency requirements, hygiene standards, and enforcement.

Abstract

The phenomenon of the rejection of divorce petitions by Religious Court judges for lawsuits filed by husbands against their wives has sparked significant discourse within the Islamic family law system in Indonesia. Such rejections are influenced not only by formal legal rules but also by considerations of maqashid syariah and human rights principles, particularly in the effort to safeguard family welfare and protect women's rights. This article aims to provide a juridical analysis of the practice of rejecting divorce petitions by Religious Court judges from the perspectives of maqashid syariah and human rights, and to formulate a model for reformulating family law policy that is both responsive and just. This study employs a literature research approach by reviewing primary legal sources, court decisions, and recent relevant journal articles and books. The findings reveal that the rejection of divorce petitions by judges is based on discretionary authority regulated under national legislation and the Compilation of Islamic Law, to maintain mashlahah, prevent harm, and strengthen the protection of women's and children's rights. Further findings emphasise the need for policy reform in family law by integrating maqashid syariah with human rights principles, whether through regulatory reform, judicial training, or strengthening advocacy and protection mechanisms for vulnerable parties. The article concludes that the synergy between maqashid syariah and human rights is a crucial foundation for realising an inclusive, adaptive, and just Islamic family law system in Indonesia.
