Inheritance Rights of Nasabiyyah Children Born Out of Wedlock According to Islamic Family Law

2025-01-08T16:20:06+08:00

The inheritance rights of nasabiyyah children outside of marriage, religion or the state will not get inheritance because the status of the child follows his mother, not his father. The serious problem is how to maintain the rights that should be obtained by children born out of wedlock, and whether the development of science and technology is ignored, even though in the rules of a change in a law is dependent on the time, place, and context of the problem. This study uses a comprehensive juridical law method that is comparatively analyzed to present data and facts from the perspective of positive law and Islamic law as well as the role of technology and science. The data is sourced from articles, books, legal rules and other juridical sources. This study concludes that in positive law, especially civil law of inheritance, the status of the child's inheritance rights outside of marriage can be recognized as long as the biological father recognizes the child's destiny as his destiny. As for Islamic civil law, there is no legal leniency for children outside of marriage, if the child is born without a clear status from both parents, then the child follows his mother and not his father. Islam has flexible laws that can adapt to the existing context. From the point of view of Islamic law, there are several ways to determine nasab, one of which is the qiyafah technique. The technique can be qiyas-kan with the reading of the nasab through a DNA test because it has almost the same legal 'illat. With the advancement of technology and the development of science, the method of determining the nasab can also be developed.

2025-01-08T16:20:06+08:00

Doi Menre' (gift money) can be returned after the divorce takes place even though husband and wife relations have previously occurred (ba‘da duhul). This research examines the practice of returning doi menre' (gifted money) ba‘da duhul, the social dynamics that influence it, as well as sociology of Islamic Law and Islamic Education perspectives regarding the practice of returning doi menre' (gifted money) ba‘da duhul for the Bugis community in South Konawe Regency, Southeast Sulawesi. This qualitative research employs a socio-empirical approach, including interviews with those who have returned doi menre' (gifted money) ba‘da duhul's, traditional leaders, community leaders, and religious leaders. The results of the research revealed that the return of doi menre' ba‘da duhul's was practiced in two stages, namely the pre-wedding verbal agreement stage and the stage of returning the doi menre' (gifted money). Three social dynamics influence the return of doi menre' ba‘da duhul's, namely; there was an oral agreement before the marriage took place, no solution was found to the marriage problems, and following the habits of some Bugis people in resolving divorce cases. Islamic education in the tradition of returning doi menre' ba‘da duhul in Bugis marriage law plays a foundation in forming principled, moral, fair in building a household, and contribute positively to social life. Sociological studies of Islamic law view that the practice of returning doi menre' (gifted money) is a managed system in the actions of the Bugis community which combines customary law and Islamic law in resolving divorce cases. In the end, research can participate in developing an assessment of the struggle between customary law and Islamic law in resolving marriage cases in Islamic communities.

Community, Family and Animal Conservation Sustainability in the Perspective of Normative Law and Maqasid Sharia

2025-01-09T11:50:50+08:00

Animal conservation aims to preserve and breed animals to achieve the benefits of a sustainable natural ecosystemincluding community and family. One of the efforts made by the government to provide information and knowledge to the public in an attempt to minimize wildlife hunting is through the legal protection of animals, as stated in Law Number 5 of 1990 concerning the Conservation of Biological Resources and Their Ecosystems, and Government Regulation Number 13 of 1994 concerning the Hunting of Game Animals. The research method used is juridical-normative with a legislative and socio-legal approach. Then, it is linked to the policy of animal conservation, which is examined from the Maqasid Shariah perspective. The research results provided recommendations to the government in creating legislation or decision policies oriented to animals that are not yet rare. These recommendations include educating the public about rare and non-rare animal species, setting educational targets, supporting conservation efforts, and establishing animal breeding programs. Furthermore, from the perspective of Maqasid Sharia, the conservation of these animals falls under the category of daruriyah, which means that the preservation and protection of wildlife are essential for the sustainability and keeping of the Hifz al-Mal element (natural ecosystem wealth).

Reassessment of Islamic Legal Bases for Matrimonial Property in Malaysia

2025-01-13T10:25:37+08:00

Most Islamic countries do not implement laws related to matrimonial property (harta sepencarian). This is due to the absence of specific provisions in the Quran and hadith that permit such practices. However, Malaysia has long practiced this and has a comprehensive legal framework concerning matrimonial property. Given this, is the practice in Malaysia truly in line with the teachings of the Quran and hadith? Therefore, this study aims to revisit the foundations of Islamic law regarding the implementation of matrimonial property laws. This research adopts Islamic normative legal research based on the principles of usul al-fiqh. This study reveals that the legal foundations cited by proponents of matrimonial property implementation, which include 'urf, syirkah, istishab and maslahat mursalah are inaccurate and do not align with the principles of usul al-fiqh. Thus, a new principle or legal basis is needed to legitimize Islamic matrimonial property distribution in Malaysia.

In addition, they foster a sense of brotherhood among other families, which contributes to the robust social resilience of their own family unit. This framework demonstrates that families in the Jalawastu traditional village profoundly embody the cultural and religious values of the Pancasila philosophy. Consequently, this condition may serve as an ideal model for family social resilience in contemporary society.

The Impact of Mosque-Based Economic Activities on Local Communities: A Case Study in Sarawak

2025-01-09T11:54:09+08:00

The mosque has a comprehensive function covering the spiritual, educational, economic, and social aspects. However, the potential of mosques as centers for economic development within local communities remains underexplored and underutilized. Many mosques lack the strategic framework and resources to effectively implement economic activities that could benefit their communities. This study aimed to examine the impact of economic activities in mosques on the local community. Furthermore, this study also analyzes the implementation of economic activities through Waqf. The qualitative methodology was chosen for this study, where a selection of respondents was made by purposive sampling. Therefore, the sampling involved 20 informants, including officers from the religious Islamic department and a committee from 10 mosques throughout the Sarawak state. These have been identified as actively carrying out economic activities. The list of mosques is derived from the Sarawak Islamic Religious Department. The instruments used for this study are semi-structured interviews and content analysis, whereas the data obtained is analyzed using an atlas.ti software. The finding shows that economic activities at the mosque can be implemented and impact the community. Besides that, waqf helps the mosque enhance its economic activity. The positive impact of the economic activities carried out in the mosque undeniably improves the community's standard of living and increases the mosque’s funds. Moreover, it indirectly attracts more people to come to the mosque.

The Normative Basis of Islamic Astronomy For The Transformation of Prayer Schedules To Digital And Its Accuracy

2025-01-09T11:55:10+08:00

The provisions for prayer times have been determined based on the instructions contained in the Qur'an and Sunnah. The Prophet gave an example of starting a prayer time based on the shadow of an object perpendicular to the sun's position relative to the earth. For example, the midday prayer is set when the sun is at its culmination. This shows that the determination of the start of the prayer time is based on the observation of the sun which must be in a certain position for each prayer time. These provisions are transformed into a set of mathematical formulas based on ongoing astronomical observations. In subsequent developments, this prayer schedule will not only be in hard copy form but also in the form of a website and Android application. Several Android applications display the starting schedule for prayers in a place that is different from the others. Every android application that displays prayer times should refer to the initial provisions of the times stipulated in the Shari'a and Fiqh, not limited to mere calculations, nor is there an API which is a common reference for program developers. There needs to be a unified standard calculation system for the android application for prayer times. It is also necessary to make a standard API and Indonesian standards in accordance with the fiqh provisions for the start of prayer times set in Indonesia.

Family Influence on Female’s Blood Education in the Context of Islamic Practice in Malaysia

2025-01-09T11:55:48+08:00

Family is the first and foremost institution in the formation of an individual’s values, morals, and personality laying the foundation for societal harmony. A well-functioning family is capable of fostering a balanced and competitive society. In Islamic education, one crucial aspect that families need to emphasize is the education concerning women’s blood, encompassing topics such as menstruation, postpartum bleeding (nifas), irregular bleeding (istihadhah), and the related rulings. However, within the context of the Malaysian Muslim community, this topic is often underemphasized due to traditional perceptions that deem it unsuitable for open discussion. The lack of clear information has led to difficulties among young women in understanding the rulings related to women’s blood, potentially affecting the validity of their religious practices. This study investigates the extent to which Muslim families in Malaysia play a role in educating about women’s blood and examines how the lack of such education influences Islamic practices among Muslim women. Adopting a qualitative approach, the study employs semi-structured interviews and document analysis to explore family perspectives and experiences in conveying this knowledge. Findings indicate that families play a pivotal role in shaping attitudes, knowledge, and awareness among children, contributing to a deeper understanding of women’s blood-related topics. Abdullah Nasih Ulwan emphasized that parents are responsible for teaching their children the rulings of maturity, including those on menstruation and its associated laws.These findings suggest that integrated education on women’s blood should be prioritized within families and Islamic educational institutions to enhance family knowledge and well-being. The study also provides significant implications for policymakers and educators in designing more inclusive programs aligned with current religious and social needs.

Implementation of Harmonious Family in the Concept of Proportionality of Obligations and Rights of Husband and Wife Relations: A Perspective on the Compilation of Islamic Law

2025-01-09T11:58:03+08:00

The breakup of marriage is a permissible act, but Allah SWT does not like such a decision. In the implementation of the sakinah mawaddah and rahmah family, it is quite difficult to carry out but it is not impossible to do. The serious problem is how when a family can no longer be harmonized again to exercise rights and obligations proportionately, and whether it must end in a divorce that is hated by God. This research focuses on husband and wife to remain harmonious when carrying out obligations and rights that benefit from the perspective of KHI. This study uses a comprehensive literature study methodology based on normative legal research presenting data and facts from the perspective of compilation of Islamic law and socio-cultural phenomena of society. KHI has an important role in a legal decision process because KHI is sourced from 13 books that are complete and in accordance with the socio-cultural nature of the Indonesian state and then with the nature of Islamic law that is flexible so that it can adapt to the dynamic development of the times. Although there are several KHI rules that need to be updated, such as the tendency towards patriarchal culture because it has been a long time when it was formed, namely 33 years, it is used as a reference by legal subjects so that it can be more up-to-date again when used in more contemporary legal cases in the future.

Legal Solutions for Domestic Violence in Unregistered Marriages in Indonesia: Integrating Maqāṣid al-sharī’ah

2025-01-09T12:12:30+08:00

This research investigates the legal protection available for domestic violence (KDRT) victims within unregistered marriages (nikah siri) in Indonesia. It assesses the difficulties arising from the lack of formal recognition for these marriages and evaluates how Maqāṣid al-sharī’ah principles can improve legal protection and fill existing gaps in Indonesian law. The study proposes integrating Indonesian marriage law principles with national frameworks to enhance victim protection. A qualitative approach is used, including descriptive analysis of legal documents, case studies, and jurisprudential interpretations. Data were gathered through literature reviews, document analysis, and interviews with legal experts. The focus is on how Maqāṣid al-sharī’ah principles apply to Indonesian domestic violence laws and the role of itsbat nikah in providing legal remedies. Findings indicate that Indonesia's current legal system inadequately supports victims of unregistered marriages, creating significant barriers to justice and protection. The research underscores that Maqāṣid al-sharī’ah ’s focus on safeguarding life and lineage can form a solid basis for legal reforms. Itsbat nikah is identified as a key solution for officially recognizing these marriages and enhancing legal safeguards. This research is distinctive in merging Maqāṣid al-sharī’ah with Indonesian law, presenting a fresh perspective on improving legal protection for victims in unregistered marriages. By aligning Islamic principles with modern legal practices, the study offers a framework to better support and protect victims. The study's implications suggest that integrating Maqāṣid al-sharī’ah into legal reforms could strengthen protections and foster a more inclusive legal system.

Moderation of Madhhabs in West Sumatra Towards Hadhanah of Minors Whose Mothers Remarry

2025-01-09T12:13:13+08:00

This study examines the implementation of the fiqh madhhab of West Sumatran society regarding the hadhanah rights of minors whose mothers remarry. The study aimed to map the moderation of the West Sumatran madhhab of society, known as the Shafi'i madhhab. This research uses qualitative methods with a sociological approach to law. Seventeen cases were found in 3 research locations: Pariaman, Luhak Agam, and Luhak Fifty Cities. The location was chosen because it is an area with a higher level of moderation than other regions in West Sumatra. The location of this study was determined using a purposive random sample technique. In the people of West Sumatra, the right of hadhanah remains with the mother, even if the mother remarries. This opinion is in harmony with that of the Maliki Madhhab. The matrilineal kinship system in Minangkabau also supports this: the child belongs to the mother and her family. When the mother's father is divorced, the child follows his mother. However, in 3 cases, it was found that the father took away the rights of a minor whose mother remarried. Basically, the people of West Sumatra have practiced the moderation of mazhab. This is evident from their practice, where they indirectly practice the diversity of mazhab opinions in the case of hadhanah of minors whose mothers remarry.

The Phenomenon of The Establishment of Baharu Pondoks By Young Ulama As Well As Relationship With The Welfare of The Kelantan Islamic Community and Family

2025-01-14T22:21:00+08:00

Kelantan is known as the Serambi Mekah (Veranda of Mecca) due to the many Islamic scholars from the state who studied in Mecca and returned home to establish pondok (traditional Islamic schools). The late 1800s and early 1900s marked a golden age for these educational centers, with over 100 pondoks operating in the state. However, the number began to decline in the mid-20th century for various reasons. Yet, in the early 2000s, Kelantan witnessed the emergence of many new pondoks, with participation reaching 70 during the 2022 gathering of Kelantan pondoks at Pondok Batu Hitam, Pasir Puteh. This phenomenon indicates a significant increase in the establishment of pondoks in Kelantan. Surprisingly, many of these were founded by young scholars who graduated from various Islamic educational institutions worldwide. This article presents a study on the initiatives of these young scholars in establishing pondoks in Kelantan, exploring various aspects and their relationship with religious well-being in the community and families. The study employs a literature review to gather facts about the history and development of pondoks in Kelantan up to the present, as well as field research where the researcher interviewed some of the involved young scholars to obtain data on this phenomenon, alongside elder scholars for their perspectives on the issue. The researcher also consulted the Royal Malaysia Police and the Kelantan Islamic Religious and Customs Council (MAIK) to gather data regarding the religious well-being of the Islamic community and families following the establishment of these educational centers. The findings indicate that the rapid establishment of pondoks is a noble effort by young scholars to propagate Islam in Kelantan by offering alternative education to the Islamic community and families, preparing students for more advanced studies in Islamic institutions worldwide. However, this growth requires oversight from religious authorities and the Kelantan pondok associations to ensure they operate according to traditional pondok systems. The study also received positive feedback from MAIK and the Royal Malaysia Police, indicating that the initiatives of young scholars in establishing new pondoks do not disrupt the religious well-being of the Islamic community and families in Kelantan; rather, they strengthen community unity and instill high values among students according to the teachings of Ahli al-Sunnah wa al-Jamaah in terms of belief, sharia, and ethics.

The Perspectives of Legal Practitioners on the Concept and Categories of Third Parties in the Household under Islamic Family Law in Malaysia

2025-01-09T12:14:50+08:00

Islamic Family Law in Malaysia provides an interpretation for divorce including punishment for factors that cause divorce, especially for certain groups. However, the factor discussed in this study is the involvement of a third party in the household. Questions arise regarding the term ‘third party in the household’ and how to categorise this third party. Therefore, this study aims to clarify the definition and categorisation of the third party in the household. This study uses a qualitative approach that collects data using document analysis methods and semi-structured interviews taken in three Syariah Courts located in the states of Selangor, Kelantan, and Terengganu. The results of the study are analysed using descriptive and thematic methods. Based on the interview findings, this study reveals that there is no specific interpretation of the term ‘third party in the household.’ A third party in a household is defined by the role they play in association with the household. As for the categorisation of the third party, two categories are identified: parents/in-laws/siblings and society/strangers/outsiders. This study provides significant implications to legal practitioners and researchers regarding the term ‘third party in the household’ that can be used to uphold justice in cases involving divorce.

Childfree in Modern Muslim Communities of Lampung and West Java Provinces: A Maqāṣid al-sharī'ah Perspective

2025-01-09T12:15:26+08:00

Recently, being childfree has become a trend in modern Muslim society. Childfree is practiced not only by celebrities but also by common people in Indonesia, particularly in Lampung and West Java provinces. On the one hand, the decision to be childfree is an individual right of each family, but it is considered contrary to the goals of Islamic law, which are to preserve offspring. This study examines the childfree phenomenon in modern Muslim communities in Lampung and West Java through the perspective of maqāṣid al-sharī'ah. This research employed a qualitative method with an ethnographic approach. The research suggested that modern Muslim communities in Lampung and West Java Provinces choose childfree for economic, mental, health, perspective, and environmental reasons. According to maqāṣid al-sharī'ah, being childfree contradicts Sharia's purpose of preserving offspring. Sharia promotes marriage and having healthy offspring. Meanwhile, Sharia cannot justify childfree due to lifestyle or economic factors. Specifically, a fear of not being able to provide for the child's future needs because Allah ensures livelihood for every servant who has faith and works diligently. At the same time, being child-free due to health reasons is permissible.

Realizing Post-Disaster Sakinah Families: Analysis of the Resilience of Semeru Eruption Survivors' Families at the Relocation Site from the Maqāṣid al-Sharī’ah Perspective

2025-01-09T12:16:01+08:00

The aim of this research is to analyze the resilience of families of Semeru eruption survivors after being relocated to new housing from a Maqāṣid al-Sharī’ah perspective, referring to the parameters in the Regulation of the Minister of Women's Empowerment and Child Protection, there are four indicators to measure family resilience, namely: physical, economic, social psychological, and socio-cultural. This research includes field studies with a qualitative approach, collecting data using interview techniques, observation and documentation. Content analysis is used as a data analysis technique, with triangulation of data sources as a technique for checking data validity. The research findings show: sequentially the economic aspects felt most affected by the survivors of the Semeru eruption after relocation, loss of assets and difficulty in finding new livelihoods were the causes, in second place the psychological aspect was due to the trauma felt, in third place the socio-cultural aspect was due to having to adapt in a neighborhood with completely new neighbors, and finally the physical aspect due to the lack of health services in the new residence. The efforts made are looking for a new job, strengthening the closeness between family members, strengthening solidarity and solidity between families in a new environment, and strengthening the spiritual aspects of the family. From a Maqāṣid al-Sharī’ah perspective, the condition of survivors' families is not yet ideal, because these families are still classified as vulnerable in terms of economic aspects and the realization of the values of sakinah, mawaddah and rahmah. Referring to the provisions in Law no. 52 of 2009 and Law no. No. 24 of 2007, building the resilience of families of Semeru eruption survivors cannot be placed solely on the family, it needs real support from the government, professionals, academics and civil society, to make this happen.

Islamic Banking Services for Communities and Families in Aceh Province Post Closure Of Conventional Banks: A Comprehensive Review

2025-01-09T12:16:36+08:00

Following the enactment of Qanun No. 13 of 2018 concerning Islamic Financial Institutions, some people believe that the closure of conventional banks in Aceh, without viable alternatives, has caused confusion. This is primarily because people were accustomed to using conventional banking facilities for various transactions, both at local, national, and international levels. This study aims to assess the performance of Islamic banks in Aceh after the implementation of Qanun No. 11 of 2018, which replaced conventional banks that had previously provided optimal services to the community. Specifically, the study examines the actions and strategic steps taken by Islamic banks in Aceh to meet the banking needs of the community. It also explores whether the performance and product diversification of Islamic banks have impacted customer satisfaction following the implementation of Qanun No. 11 of 2018 in Aceh. Data was collected through interviews with 23 informants. The findings suggest that while Islamic banks continue to provide services and meet community needs after the conversion, customers still face some technical obstacles, which may give the impression that Islamic banking services are not yet fully effective. However, improvements in post-conversion services appear to be aligned with the regulations set by the government.

Birrul Walidain in Political Preferences: Harmonizing Family Values and Employment Law in Indonesia

2025-01-10T10:24:10+08:00

This study examines the interaction between political preferences and the concept of birrul walidain (the obligation to respect parents) in Indonesia, highlighting its significant impact on individual behavior and familfy dynamics. Using a qualitative approach and literature review, the research reveals that harmonious parent-child relationships positively correlate with career success and political alignment, while differing political beliefs can create familial conflicts affecting overall well-being. The findings underscore the importance of integrating Birrul Walidain principles into workplace policies to support family responsibilities. Furthermore, the study emphasizes Al-Ghazali's concept of maslahah, advocating for the preservation of religious and familial values alongside personal aspirations. By introducing a novel perspective that connects traditional Islamic values with modern employment law, this research aims to inform legal frameworks and workplace practices. Ultimately, the study concludes that the interplay between political preferences and Birrul Walidain offers valuable insights for enhancing employment law and promoting a society that respects both individual rights and family obligations, calling for further research into specific legal reforms aligned with these principles.
