Abstract

This library research explains the position of ‘urf as the basis for reforming Islamic law and its contribution to the renewal of inheritance law in Indonesia, using the content analysis method. The result showed that ‘urf is of higher importance in the renewal of Islamic law and plays a very important role in reforming the inheritance law in Indonesia. Several KHI book II provisions were based on ‘urf, including the inheritance of adopted children and adoptive parents, żawul arḥām, radd, walad, joint property, and substitute heirs. Among the several forms of ‘urf that have been recognized as Islamic law, ‘urf of joint property comes from the rich culture and traditions of native Indonesia. Therefore, it has made a valuable contribution to the renewal of Islamic law in Indonesia.

Abstract

This research aims to examine how Malaysia strives to harmonies the formulation of Civil law, Shariah law, and customary law in its legal system. In 1422, the Law of the Malacca Code was Islamic law and a custom practiced and spread into the Law of the Pahang Code, the Law of Kedah, and the Law of 99 Perak. After the arrival of the British in Malaya, one of the conditions of Malaysia's independence was the adoption of English law based on Common Law with Islam as the official religion of the Federation of Malaysia. This study concludes that first, customary law exerted a significant influence in the formation of laws in Malaysia, as evidenced by the development of laws in Malaysia through the pre-colonial phase of the British occupation, which practiced Islamic law mixed with customary laws, and phases after British colonialism. Second, the global situation in Malaysia does not weaken the development of Islamic law through sanctions, so the relationship between Islamic law and Customs is strengthened by the Malaysian customary constitutional system, Islamic family law, and Islamic jinayah law.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji bagaimana Malaysia berusaha mengharmonikan penggubalan  undang-undang Sivil, undang-undang Shariah dan undang adat dalam sistem undang-undang nya. Pada tahun 1422 Hukum Kanun Melaka adalah undang-undang Islam dan adat yang diamalkan dan tersebar menjadi Hukum Kanun Pahang, Undang-undang Kedah dan Undang-undang 99 Perak. Setelah kedatangan British di Tanah Melayu, salah satu syarat  kemerdekaan Malaysia ialah penerimaan undang-undang Inggeris berasaskan Common Law dengan Islam sebagai agama rasmi bagi Persekutuan Malaysia. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa pertama, hukum adat memberikan pengaruh yang signifikan dalam pembentukan undang-undang di Malaysia dibuktikan dengan perkembangan undang-undang di Malaysia melalui fase sebelum penjajahan British yang mengamalkan undang-undang Islam bercampur dengan undang-undang adat dan fase setelah penjajahan Inggeris. Kedua, situasi global di Malaysia tidak membuat pelemahan terhadap perkembangan hukum Islam melalui pengkanunan, justru antara hukum Islam dan hukum Adat mengalami penguatan pada sistem perlembagaan adat Malaysia, undang-undang kekeluargaan Islam dan undang-undang jinayah Islam.

Abstract

The research aims to highlight how traditional practices and norms, often ingrained in customary laws, contribute to systematic abuses and human rights violations. Utilizing a multidisciplinary approach, this study combines legal analysis, sociocultural examination, and case studies from various developing countries to provide a comprehensive understanding of the issue. Through qualitative methods, including interviews with affected individuals, reviews of existing legal frameworks, and analysis of human rights reports, the research identifies key patterns and factors that perpetuate exploitation. The findings reveal that while customary laws play a significant role in community governance and cultural identity, they often conflict with international human rights standards, leading to the marginalization and abuse of vulnerable groups, particularly children and women. Specific customary practices such as child marriages, forced labor, and gender-based violence are scrutinized to demonstrate the pervasive nature of these violations. The study underscores the urgent need for integrating human rights principles into customary legal systems to protect the most vulnerable and promote justice. Recommendations include comprehensive policy reforms that align customary laws with international human rights standards, education and awareness campaigns targeted at both local communities and policymakers, and the establishment of robust mechanisms for monitoring and enforcing human rights compliance within customary law frameworks. This research contributes to the broader discourse on human rights in developing countries by providing actionable insights and advocating for a balanced approach that respects cultural traditions while safeguarding fundamental human rights.

Abstract

The settlement of inheritance disputes in Indonesia is a complex issue involving various legal systems, including Islamic family law and customary law. This study aims to conduct a comparative analysis between these two legal systems in the context of inheritance dispute resolution. This research employs a qualitative approach with case study methods, examining court decisions, interviews with legal practitioners, and a review of relevant legal literature.The findings show that Islamic family law, based on Sharia principles, has a formal structure and stricter procedures in resolving inheritance disputes. On the other hand, customary law is more flexible, emphasizing deliberation and consensus, and adapting to local norms and cultural contexts. These differences often create tension and jurisdictional conflicts, especially in cases where the parties involved come from diverse cultural and religious backgrounds.The research also explores the challenges faced in the application of these legal systems, such as the lack of public awareness regarding their rights and institutional and bureaucratic obstacles. The findings are expected to provide deeper insights for legal practitioners, academics, and policymakers in strengthening a more just and inclusive inheritance dispute resolution system in Indonesia. By understanding the strengths and weaknesses of each system, it is hoped that solutions can be found that integrate positive elements from both legal systems to create a more effective and equitable mechanism for resolving inheritance disputes.
