Potensi Pengembangan Wakaf Saham Sebagai Objek Wakaf Baru Di Indonesia: Perspektif Hukum Islam, Fahrul Fauzi

Jurnal Hukum & Pembangunan

Share waqf is holding one or more shares owned by wakif in a company that is engaged in a field that is permitted under sharia, the profits of which are used according to the purpose of waqf both for public and private in the framework of worshiping Allah SWT. The regulation of share waqf in Indonesia is still incorporated in the provisions of waqf in general. The existence of this regulation is the result of ijtihad by Indonesian ulama who adjusts to the needs and current social conditions. Shares in Islamic law are categorized as a form of Syirkah.

Equal, But Only Conceptually: Explaining The Phenomenon Of Religious Losses In Contemporary Canadian Constitutional Cases Involving Conflicting Rights, Mike Madden

Dalhousie Law Journal

If there is no hierarchy of rights in Canada, then why does freedom of religion so often seem to lose in cases of conflicts with other rights? This article discusses five recent Canadian cases (involving same-sex marriages, controversial medical practices, the wearing of a niqab, and a Christian university’s sexual conduct policy) in order to expose how the courts regularly characterize freedom of religion as being conceptually equal to other rights, before ruling against freedom of religion on the facts of the particular cases. This phenomenon within Canadian rights jurisprudence is then justified within the article by reference to a …

Islamist Terrorism And The Classical Islamic Law Of War, Joseph Hoelz

International Law Studies

Islamist terrorists have had a large influence on U.S. foreign and domestic policy for more than twenty years, and yet policy makers, legal practitioners, and the public know very little about what motivates these violent extremist organizations. A primary unifying principle among the various Islamist terrorist groups is their desire to return to a religiously ordered State, justified and based upon their interpretation of the Shari’a, or Islamic law. This article explores the Islamist terrorist interpretation of Shari’a law and how it generally contradicts that of mainstream Islamic scholars. The article begins with a review of the primary and secondary …

Divine Intervention, Part Ii: Narratives Of Norm Entrepreneurship In Canadian Religious Freedom Litigation, Kathryn Chan, Howard Kislowicz

Dalhousie Law Journal

Constitutional litigation has become a central arena for debate about human rights. Groups from all points on the political spectrum have turned to legal advocacy, “intervening” in judicial proceedings in an effort to advance their preferred interpretations of particular rights.

Judges and scholars remain divided on whether and how interveners are valuable. This paper evaluates a main rationale for intervention: interveners improve adjudication by enriching courts’ understandings of the issues before them. We use qualitative analysis to examine the extent to which interveners in Canada have succeeded in contributing to judicial pronouncements on the scope and meaning of religious freedom. …

Lgbtqia+ Public Accomodation Cases: The Battle Between Religious Freedom And Civil Rights, Jamie Reinah

Fordham Law Review

Protections for LGBTQIA+ Americans have greatly expanded since the U.S. Supreme Court recognized marriage equality in Obergefell v. Hodges, but the debate about whether business owners can refuse to serve LGBTQIA+ couples on religious grounds has grown more bitterly divided. The free exercise of religion is a fundamental constitutional right, and it is strongly protected at both the federal and state levels. At the same time, LGBTQIA+ couples are protected from receiving unequal treatment in public places under state antidiscrimination laws. The clash between religion and LGBTQIA+ rights has culminated in a line of cases that present difficult questions …

Status Sopir Selamat Dalam Kecelakaan Kendaraan Tunggal Yang Menyebabkan Korban Jiwa (Perspektif Al- Jinayah ‘Ala An-Nafs Al-Insaniyyah), Maudyna Maudyna, Fahrul Fauzi

Journal of Islamic Law Studies

Vehicle accidents are one of the causes of the loss of a person's life. Vehicle accidents often occur where the driver as the party driving the vehicle survives while the passenger dies. This condition causes the driver's status to be named as a suspect in accidents that occur. This study analyzes the status of the driver who survived a single-vehicle accident that caused fatalities in the perspective of al-jinayah 'ala an-nafs al-insaniyyah. This study uses normative legal research methods with qualitative data analysis methods. The results of this study are that the crime of murder in Islamic criminal law is …

Pandangan Hukum Positif Dan Hukum Pidana Islam Mengenai Penganiayaan Hewan: Studi Kasus Penganiayaan Anjing Di Kabupaten Aceh Singkil Pembukaan Wisata Halal, Eva Nurhafiah Salsabilah, Moh. Yuflih Huda Maheswara

Journal of Islamic Law Studies

One of the essential sectors that drive the national economy is the tourism sector. Nowadays, the halal tourism sector (halal tourism) is starting to be developed in various countries. In Indonesia, the government coordinates with various parties for the realization of halal tourism which is starting to develop in various regions, including Aceh. One of the events that attracted attention related to halal tourism was the case of persecution of dogs by the apparatus in Aceh Singkil Regency. The rise of this news prompted the local government to form an investigative unit to investigate the alleged abuse of the animal. …

Tinjauan Yuridis Penggunaan Dinar Dan Dirham Di Indonesia (Studi Kasus Putusan 202/Pid.Sus/2021/Pn.Dpk Tentang Pasar Muamalah), Nabila Nabila, Diah Arini

Journal of Islamic Law Studies

For centuries, the dinar and dirham have been recognized as the most stable and sharia-compliant official trading instruments. In Indonesia, dinars and dirhams may be used with specific qualifications. However, the precedent for arresting scholar Zaim Saidi for organizing a muamalah market using dinar-dirham is a bad practice of punishing innovation in the use of dinar-dirham, which reduces the development of the sharia economy in Indonesia. The acquittal of the Depok District Court (PN) No. 202/Pid.Sus/2021/PNDpk proves the ignorance of the state (in this case, the police and the prosecutor's office) regarding the concept of using dinars and dirhams themselves. …

Merespon Lgbtiq Ditinjau Berdasarkan Hukum Pidana Islam, Muhammad Furqan Sultan Deyis, Kemal Azizi

Journal of Islamic Law Studies

Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Intersexual, Queer (LGBTIQ) is a phenomenon that spreads in the modern era as a form of sexual deviation which is strongly influenced by wrong parenting, inadequate Islamic religious education, bad social relations, and factors from poor information and communication obtained from social media. The growth and development of children include important aspects that must be balanced and directed proportionally. Aspects of children's growth and development include: spirituality (faith), physical (physical), psychological (psychic), intellectual, emotional, moral, social, sexual, and economic should be balanced with each other. If parents and teachers can balance these aspects of education, understanding …

Optimalisasi Lembaga Amil Zakat Untuk Penyaluran Zakat Bagi Golongan Gharimin, Annisa Sucita Fitri

Journal of Islamic Law Studies

Gharimin or people who carry debts are one of eight groups who are entitled to receive zakat distribution (asnaf). Gharimin with certain criteria, in principle, will be helped to pay off their obligations through the receipt of zakat. However, there are many gharimin who have to get back into new debt or loans, either conventional or online loans, which threaten them to pay big interest. It was later discovered that zakat receipts by the Amil Zakat Institution (LAZ), especially those that would be distributed to the mustahik of the Gharimin group, were still not maximized, so high-interest loans were still …

Peran Zakat Produktif Dalam Kesejahteraan Ekonomi Masyarakat: Komparasi Badan Amil Zakat Milik Negara Dan Swasta, Satrio Alif Febriyanto

Journal of Islamic Law Studies

Zakat is one of the main obligatory worship services that is carried out by giving some of the assets owned by a person to those entitled to receive it with the aim of realizing social justice in the community. With its form of giving, zakat is often considered to only be able to provide momentary benefits that tend to be consumptive. However, zakat can also be in the form of gifts that can provide long-term benefits that tend to be productive. The comparative study between state-owned and private institutions on the management of productive zakat is intended to find out …

Shifting Antitrust Laws And Regulations In The Wake Of Hospital Mergers: Taking The Focus Off Of Elective Markets And Centering Health Care, Maya Inka Ureño-Dembar

Brooklyn Law Review

Access to health care requires access to a care center and access to comprehensive health care services. Rampant hospital mergers are uniquely poised to reduce both the number of hospitals, requiring patients to travel further, and the services provided within a newly merged hospital, namely reproductive health services. This phenomenon is clearly seen through the merging of secular and nonsecular hospitals, which often result in patients being forced to travel much further for reproductive health care. In the United States’ current model, health care is not a right, but is treated as a commodity. As such, it is governed by …

A Fresh Approach To What It Means To Be A Religious Refugee, Brienna Bagaric, Jennifer Svilar

Pepperdine Law Review

The world is currently experiencing an unprecedented displaced persons crisis. There are more than 70 million people worldwide who have been forcibly displaced from their homeland and are in search of a new country in which to settle. There is no international appetite to absorb these people. There is only one legal pathway by which displaced people can claim an entitlement to settle in another country. This is pursuant to the Refugee Convention. More than 140 countries including the United States are signatories to this convention. The difficulty experienced by displaced people is now particularly acute so far as entry …

Insulated From Justice? Religious Expulsion Before Canadian Courts In The Post-Highwood Era, Adam Schenk

Dalhousie Law Journal

Judicial consideration of religious disputes prompt concerns that the legal system may delve into issues of a spiritual nature that should enjoy some insulation from legal comment or intervention. These concerns are only heightened in instances where the dispute concerns the very serious issue of the expulsion of a member from their religious community. While necessary care is warranted in these sensitive circumstances, a blanket prohibition on legal intervention in instances of religious expulsion creates the possibility that a member of a religious community may experience the devastation of expulsion in an unfair and unjust manner. This paper, written prior …

Intellectual Property Through A Non-Western Lens: Patents In Islamic Law, Tabrez Y. Ebrahim

Georgia State University Law Review

The intersection of secular, Western intellectual property law and Islamic law is undertheorized in legal scholarship. Yet the nascent and developing non-Western law of one form of intellectual property—patents—in Islamic legal systems is profoundly important for transformational innovation and economic development initiatives of Muslim-majority countries that comprise nearly one-fifth of the world’s population.

Recent scholarship highlights the tensions of intellectual property in Islamic law because religious considerations in an Islamic society do not fully align with Western notions of patents. As Islamic legal systems have begun to embrace patents in recent decades, theories of patents have presented conceptual and theological …

A Case Against School Choice: Carson Ex Rel. O.C. V. Makin And The Future Of Maine's Nonsectarian Requirement, Blake E. Mccartney

Maine Law Review

School choice advocates, such as the nonprofit libertarian law firm, The Institute for Justice, have spent decades arguing that states violate the Free Exercise Clause when they exclude private religious schools from public programs that otherwise provide public dollars to non-religious private schools. Recently, in Espinoza v. Montana Department of Revenue, the Supreme Court effectively agreed with that sentiment. After this victory, the Institute for Justice returned to the state of Maine to represent three sets of parents in a renewed effort to defeat Maine’s nonsectarian requirement in federal court. Maine’s nonsectarian requirement provides that private religious schools may not …

Nalar Mazhab Sosiologis Dalam Penemuan Hukum Yang Berkeadilan Oleh Hakim, Christiani Widowati, Herliana Herliana

Jurnal Hukum & Pembangunan

The issue of justice is a philosophical and contemporary issue. As a philosophical study, justice is examined from several schools of thoughts within the philosophy of law. This study focuses on the sociological jurisprudence discipline which basically states that law as a social norm which is inseparable from the values prevailing in a society because there is a close correlation between law and society. In relation to judicial authority, the denotation of justice in the judge's decision is that it should be in accordance with the law prevailing in the community. This research was conducted through the statute approach method …

Christian Dignity And The Overlapping Consensus, Frederick Mark Gedicks

BYU Law Review

This Article rejects arguments by Christian leaders, scholars, and others who lament the secularization of the West and urge Christian dignity as the foundation of universal human rights. It argues instead that only a secular conception of dignity free of Christian metaphysics can create an overlapping consensus in support of human rights.

Part I describes the roots of Christian dignity in medieval theology and status. Part II briefly recounts how the Renaissance and Enlightenment re-centered the end of dignity from knowing God to knowing oneself, while the Reformation's extension of original sin to the intellect left Catholicism as the primary …

Incidental Burdens On First Amendment Freedoms, Charles F. Capps

Notre Dame Law Review Reflection

The Supreme Court is currently reconsidering the question when, if ever, the Free Exercise Clause requires exemptions to neutral laws of general applicability. This Essay proposes an answer that is based on the idea—which this Essay labels the “Principle of Consistency”—that the First Amendment requires comparable levels of protection for speech and religious exercise. Other scholars applying the Principle of Consistency have discussed the implications of United States v. O’Brien, which prescribed intermediate scrutiny for incidental burdens on speech, for the problem of exemptions under the Free Exercise Clause. But no one has discussed the implications of two lines …

Meninjau Kedudukan Pelaku Riddah Dan Hukuman Mati Bagi Pelaku Riddah Berdasarkan Hukum Islam Dan Hak Asasi Manusia Dalam Sudut Pandang Islam, Muhammad Adiguna Bimasakti, Nadim Raouf

Journal of Islamic Law Studies

Riddah is an act of apostasy in Islamic faith. Some texts of the hadits (sayings of The Prophet PBUH) indicate that the apostate shall be punished with death sentence. Beside, the apostate will also lose some of his/her rights according to Islamic Sharia. But there is also a principle of Freedom of Religion in quranic text as we read in Surah Albaqarah (chapter 2) verse 256 which says: “There is no compulsion in religion”. This also indicates that the Freedom of Religion in Islamic perspective is guaranteed, and cannot be taken. Thus this writing tries to elaborate the two which …

Keabsahan Perkawinan Beda Agama Dan Kewenangan Mengadili Sengketanya Dalam Perspektif Hukum Antar Tata Hukum Indonesia, Muhammad Adiguna Bimasakti

Journal of Islamic Law Studies

Perkawinan merupakan suatu hal yang sangat sakral dalam beberapa kebudayaan. Beberapa tahun belakangan isu perkawinan beda agama menjadi isu yang kembali hangat dibicarakan, terutama sejak adanya Permohonan Pengujian Pasal 2 ayat (1) UU Perkawinan No. 1 Tahun 1974 kepada Mahkamah Konstitusi dengan Nomor Perkara 68/PUU-XII/2014 yang mana seolah Pasal 2 ayat (1) ini dianggap melarang perkawinan beda agama di Indonesia. Pertanyaan yang akan timbul terkait hal tersebut adalah apakah benar perkawinan beda agama merupakan hal yang dilarang di Indonesia? Lalu bagaimana dengan legitimasi praktik perkawinan beda agama yang sudah terjadi? Kompetensi Absolut peradilan manakah yang berwenang mengadili terkait sengketa perkawinan …
