Abstract

In Indonesia, sharia economic law is implemented through Religious Courts which have an important role in resolving disputes involving sharia financial entities such as banks, microfinance institutions, and insurance. Law Number 3 of 2006 replaces Law Number 7 of 1989 which significantly expands the authority of the Religious Courts in supervising and enforcing sharia economic principles. Sharia economics, which is based on Islamic values ​​such as justice, honesty, and legal certainty, forms an economic and financial system that is different from conventional systems. Religious Court Judges strive to balance ethical and practical considerations in carrying out their judicial duties. This research examines how ethical perspectives and practical considerations contribute to achieving legal certainty and justice in resolving sharia economic disputes, especially in the Surabaya Religious Court. This research uses a normative juridical approach using legal utility theory to analyze the challenges faced and propose strategies to increase the effectiveness of implementing simple, efficient, and cost-effective principles in Sharia economic protection at the Surabaya High Religious Court. The research results consider the principles of maqasid al-syariah to simplify the process, lighten the burden on the parties involved, and uphold justice in every decision-making. This study emphasizes the need for better integration between Islamic Sharia principles and Sharia banking practices in Indonesia, as well as encouraging reforms to ensure that legal outcomes provide fair justice and maximum social benefits, in line with the ethical and utilitarian aims of the law.

Abstract

This research endeavors to investigate the intricate process of dispute resolution pertaining to conflicts that emerge between indigenous communities inhabiting the candidate site for the State Capital (Nusantara Capital City) and the Nusantara Capital Authority, a ministry-level institution endowed with the responsibility of overseeing regional administration within the Nusantara Capital City. Spanning an expansive 256,142 hectares of land, the Nusantara Capital City landscape harbors a mosaic of 17 indigenous communities in North Penajam Paser Regency and 34 indigenous communities in Kutai Kertanegara Regency, collectively comprising over 20,000 members, as documented by the Indigenous Peoples Alliance (Aliansi Masyarakat Adat). The procurement of land for the Nusantara Capital City's expansion has engendered protracted conflicts, notably pertaining to the resettlement of indigenous communities and the determination of suitable compensation areas. These conflicts persist without the presence of regulatory safeguards that could protect the rights and interests of indigenous communities while satisfying the exigencies of Nusantara Capital City development. The Indigenous Peoples Draft Law, despite its relevance, fails to address the intricacies of resolving disputes arising from land acquisition for public purposes. Similarly, the existing frameworks for land acquisition designed for public interest do not adequately address conflicts involving indigenous communities that lack legal recognition. Consequently, this research endeavors to propose a comprehensive conflict resolution framework rooted in the fundamental human rights of indigenous peoples, while also accommodating the imperatives of developmental investment. This approach seeks to strike a harmonious balance between the preservation of indigenous rights and the fulfillment of Nusantara Capital City's development needs.

Abstract

This research explores the legal implications of land certificate digitalization under Indonesia's Job Creation Omnibus Law, focusing on the synchronization and harmonization of related regulations. The main question examines how the transition from traditional paper-based certificates to electronic titles (e-titles) can align with Indonesia's legal framework. The study is intended to analyze primary legal challenges and compare the Indonesian experience with Rwanda's successful e-title system. The paper employs a normative-juridical method, examining legal materials, including Electronic Information and Transactions Law and government regulations regarding land registration. The research discusses the synchronization of these laws and their application in ensuring data security, legal certainty, and efficient land governance. The result of the discussion highlights that while digitalizing land certificates can improve service delivery and efficiency, successful implementation is contingent upon the careful alignment of various laws and coordination between the National Land Agency and other government bodies. The comparative analysis with Rwanda’s e-title system offers useful insights into addressing potential legal and administrative challenges in Indonesia's digital transformation of land administration. This research contributes to offering actionable insights for policymakers aiming to modernize land governance in Indonesia. Penelitian ini mengkaji implikasi hukum digitalisasi sertifikat tanah berdasarkan UU Cipta Kerja, dengan fokus pada sinkronisasi dan harmonisasi peraturan perundang-undangan terkait. Fokus utama penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis tentang bagaimana transisi sertifikat tanah dalam bentuk kertas menjadi sertifikat tanah elektronik (e-title) dapat diselaraskan dengan kerangka hukum Indonesia yang ada. Penelitian ini diposisikan untuk menganalisis tantangan hukum utama dan membandingkan pengalaman Indonesa dengan sistem e-title di Rwanda yang dianggap berhasil. Paper ini akan mengkaji isu hukum ini dengan menggunakan metode yuridis normatif, yakni menganalisis berbagai bahan hukum peraturan perundangan-undangan, antara lain Undang-Undang Informasi dan Transaksi Elektronik, dan Peraturan Pemerintah yang terkait dengan pendaftaran tanah. Penelitian ini membahas sinkronisasi beberapa peraturan dan penerapannya dalam memastikan keamanan data, kepastian hukum, dan tata kelola pertanahan yang efisien. Hasil utama dari diskusi pada paper ini menyoroti bahwa meskipun digitalisasi sertifikat tanah dapat meningkatkan penyediaan layanan dan efisiensi, implementasi yang sukses bergantung pada penyelarasan berbagai undang-undang dan koordinasi yang cermat antara Badan Pertanahan Nasional dan badan pemerintah lainnya. Analisis komparatif dengan sistem e-title Rwanda menawarkan wawasan yang berguna untuk mengatasi potensi tantangan hukum dan administratif dalam transformasi digital administrasi pertanahan Indonesia. Penelitian ini memberikan kontribusi wawasan praktis bagi pembuat kebijakan yang bertujuan memodernisasi tata kelola pertanahan di Indonesia.

Abstract

The MUI fatwa related to interreligious greetings has created polemics in Indonesian society, particularly in the context of Islamic moderation. This fatwa prohibits interreligious greetings which are considered to damage the purity of Islamic teachings that affect social relations, especially in families that have different beliefs. This article aims to analyse the impact of the MUI fatwa on the dynamics of family law in Indonesia, especially on families who have different beliefs and their relevance to the principles of Islamic moderation in the context of family law. This article uses a qualitative approach with an analysis of the content of the MUI fatwa related to greetings in family law, and interviews with family law experts and religious leaders who understand the implications of the fatwa on family relations in interfaith Indonesian society. This article shows that the MUI Fatwa causes tension in families of different beliefs regarding interfaith greetings. This fatwa also shows the tension between maintaining religious identity and maintaining family harmony. In the context of family law, this fatwa affects basic principles such as respect for religious differences and the values of inclusivity in families of different religions. This article offers a new perspective that connects the MUI fatwa related to interfaith greetings with family law in Indonesia.

Abstract

Afghanistan is a multiethnic country with a complex legal system characterized by intricate interactions between Islamic law, customary law, and modern legal frameworks. This research critically examines the resilience mechanisms of Afghanistan's legal and judicial systems within the context of persistent political uncertainty and societal pluralism. Employing a descriptive qualitative methodology and comprehensive literature review, the study analyzes legal documents, international reports, and academic literature spanning the post-Taliban period from 2001 to the present. The research investigates the dynamic challenges confronting Afghanistan's legal infrastructure, particularly its capacity to integrate diverse normative systems while maintaining institutional legitimacy. Key findings reveal significant complexities in Afghanistan's legal landscape. The system encounters substantial obstacles in harmonizing Islamic legal principles, traditional customary practices, and contemporary legal standards. Family law reforms emerge as a critical focal point, demonstrating progressive attempts to enhance women's rights while simultaneously navigating conservative societal resistance. The research illuminates the intricate interplay between legal pluralism, political transformation, and institutional adaptation. It highlights how Afghanistan's judicial system continuously negotiates between preserving traditional legitimacy, accommodating societal diversity, and meeting international normative standards. The study recommends a comprehensive, nuanced approach to judicial reform that holistically considers cultural diversity, respects traditional values, and aligns with international human rights principles. By exploring the mechanisms of legal resilience in a conflict-affected context, this research contributes valuable insights into understanding adaptive strategies within complex, multi-layered legal systems. The findings provide a critical framework for comprehending how legal institutions can maintain functionality and relevance amid profound political and social transformations.

Abstract

Purpose – This study explores the transformation of zakat distribution principles as outlined in Nahdlatul Ulama’s Fatwa Bahtsul Masail and its implications for Indonesia's legal regulations. The goal is to understand how these principles can enhance zakat management by addressing social inequality and poverty alleviation.Methodology – A normative juridical approach was used, with a descriptive analytical study based on a literature review.

Abstract

Delayed implementation of child support payments by fathers has become a frequently debated topic in child support disputes across innumerable countries, even when mandated by a court order. This study focused on comparing the enforcement of child support orders between Malaysia and Indonesia. It also examined administrative factors in the respective courts that contribute to delays in executing these orders. It adopted the empirical legal study approach, employing content analysis and legal comparison methodologies. Primary data were collected through observation, interviews, and analysis of both primary and secondary sources. Findings revealed that provisions in Malaysian Law (Section 73) and Indonesia's Law No. 1 Article 41 (1974) assign fathers the responsibility of providing for their children. While the basic obligations are similar, differences emerge in the transfer of responsibility to mothers. In Malaysia, child support orders under Section 79 remain effective until the child reaches 18 years. In contrast, in Indonesia, Article 156 (d) of the Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI), consolidated by Article 98 (1), extends this to 21 years. Key factors contributing to delays in child support payments in the Federal Territory Syariah Court, Kuala Lumpur, and the Religious Court of Riau were identified. Both courts faced challenges stemming from a lack of legal awareness among the public and administrative weaknesses, including delays in case hearings. Cumbersome procedures, lengthy processes, and high costs characterized the Religious Court of Riau. Delays in issuing and executing maintenance orders were further exacerbated in the Syariah Court due to insufficient evidence presented by clients

Abstract

The right to claim matrimonial property (jointly acquired property) is an exclusive entitlement of the husband or wife that could be pursued in the event of a divorce, polygamy, death or conversion to another religion. In cases where such claims arise following a death of either spouse, the Syariah Court has allowed heirs to continue the claim for matrimonial property on behalf of the deceased, provided that the deceased had initiated such a claim while the deceased was still alive. However, complications arise when heirs attempt to file such claims even though the deceased never pursued any claim during the deceased’s lifetime. This article explores the legal standing, or locus standi, of heirs who adduce claims on matrimonial property after the death of a relative, based on Syariah Court decisions in Malaysia. This qualitative study employed document analysis, presented descriptively through the case study methodology, involving Syariah Court proceedings. Findings indicate that, in principle, heirs, other than the husband or wife who is still living, do not automatically possess the legal standing to claim matrimonial property on behalf of the deceased, as they do in matters of inheritance under Islamic estate law, unless the deceased had explicitly delegated such authority to them. Nonetheless, it is essential to first determine why eligible parties had failed to file the claim during their lifetime. Given the absence of clear textual evidence from Islamic sources, either permitting or prohibiting such claims by heirs, and the lack of specific provisions addressing this issue in state-enacted Islamic family law, judges have exercised their discretion in varying ways when deciding these cases.
