This paper’s aim is to analyze the legal consideration of Kendal District court on the stipulation of the adopted child for Muslim after the enactment of Law No. 50 of 2009 concerning the religious courts with the focus on the ratio decidendi of the decision of Kendal District Court  Number: 27/pdt.p/2011/ PN. Kdl. Utilizing juridical normative work, this paper argues that the court stipulated adopted Muslim child after the enactment of Religious Court (PA) act as the judges only took serious consideration to the adoption motives and paid less attention to the religion of the child. The decision, therefore, does not meet to the principle of the best interest of the child where religion is a fundamental.Artikel ini membahas tentang ratio desidendi atau alasan hukum yang digunakan oleh hakim Pengadilan Negeri (PN) Kendal dalam membuat penetapan pengangkatan anak dalam perkara No. 27/pdt.p/2011/PN.kdl. Penetapan ini berkaitan dengan pengajuan penetapan pengangkatan anak yang diajukan oleh pasangan suami isteri Muslim. Dengan menggunakan perspektif yuridis, artikel ini berargumen bahwa dalam membuat penetapan ini, hakim hanya mempertimbangkan motif dan tujuan dibalik pengangkatan anak yang dilakukan, tanpa mempertimbangkan faktor agama sebagai alasan dalam penetapan. Dari perspektif hukum, penetapan ini tidak sesuai dengan prinsip pengangkatan anak yang menekankan pada kepentingan terbaik anak.

This study aimed to analyze the force of private testament proofing and the judge's consideration in the Bitung District Court Decision Number 43 / Pdt.G / 2015 / PN.Bit. about sale without any written evidence. The study used a normative research method with a statutory approach and a case approach. The results showed the power of private testament regarding the Bitung District Court Decision Number 43 / Pdt.G / 2015 / PN.Bit. is strong, judging from the power of physical evidence, the power of formal evidence, and the power of material evidence. However, the sale carried out between the plaintiff and the defendant which was not in the presence of the Land Deed Official had weak legal force because it was not in accordance with the prevailing laws and regulations. In their legal considerations, judges used the principle of sale customary law only, namely light and cash, and witness testimony de auditu as evidence. This legal consideration was deemed inappropriate because it was against the Basic Agrarian Law and in general the witness testimony de auditu was rejected as evidence.

Freedom of political expression has not been fully guaranteed in the Indonesian legal system. One of the most prominent in the legal debate is the matter of treason (makar) charges against political expressions of self-determination. In the case of Papua, many Papuans have been detained, criminalised, and even killed because of their political expression. Interestingly, the Constitutional Court, through its decision Number 7/PUU-XV/2017, provided guidance in its ‘ratio decidendi’ argument, specifically the interpretation of treason phrases in the Criminal Code. Interpretation is given by the Constitutional Court after seeing the reality that law enforcement has been arbitrarily abused by the application of the treason article. This is contrary to the freedom of association, opinion and expression, as guaranteed in the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. This article discusses how the application of the phrase treason in law enforcement, especially in connection with the conviction of many Papuans after the Surabaya anti-racism rallies in September 2019. A number of district court decisions on dozens of convicted Papuans show that the legal system that guarantees freedom of political expression has not changed much and law enforcement in fact emphasises the position of racial discrimination and is far below the standard of human rights law. Abstrak Kebebasan ekspresi politik belum sepenuhnya dijamin dalam sistem hukum Indonesia. Salah satu yang paling mengemuka dalam perdebatan hukum adalah soal tuduhan makar terhadap ekspresi politik menentukan nasib sendiri. Dalam kasus Papua, tidak sedikit jumlah warga Papua yang ditahan, dikriminalkan, hingga tewas terbunuh karena soal ekspresi politiknya. Menariknya, Mahkamah Konstitusi melalui putusannya Nomor 7/PUU-XV/2017 memberikan panduan dalam argumen ratio decidendinya, khusus interpretasi frasa makar dalam Kitab-Undang-Undang Hukum Pidana. Penafsiran diberikan oleh Mahkamah Konstitusi setelah melihat realitas penegakan hukum telah banyak disalahgunakan penerapan pasal makar. Hal demikian bertentangan dengan kebebasan berkumpul, berpendapat dan berekspresi, sebagaimana dijamin dalam Undang-Undang Dasar Negara Republik Indonesia Tahun 1945. Artikel ini membahas bagaimana penerapan frasa makar dalam penegakan hukumnya, khususnya berkaitan dengan dipidananya banyak warga Papua setelah aksi anti rasisme Surabaya pada September 2019. Sejumlah putusan pengadilan negeri atas puluhan warga Papua yang dipidana tersebut memperlihatkan sistem hukum yang menjamin kebebasan ekspresi politik tidak banyak berubah dan penegakan hukum justru menegaskan posisi diskriminasi rasial serta jauh dari standar hukum hak asasi manusia.

AbstractThe issue of adoption has been determined in Islamic law and civil law. Where both legal instruments state that the adoption of a child is something that is allowed as long as it is in the best interest of the adopted child. However, problems arise regarding adoption of children associated with inheritance issues. In Islamic law and civil law have different provisions. In Islamic law the status of adopted children can’t be equated with biological children so that they can’t receive inheritance from their adopted parents. However, the adopted child is entitled to get a will from his adoptive parents provided that no more than one-third of the assets of the adoptive parents. Whereas according to the law code of civil law states that the adopted child as a family member can get the inheritance from the adoptive parents based on the provisions of the applicable law (ab instestato) or with a will (testament).Keywords: Adopted Children, Civil Law, Inheritance, Islamic Law, Mandatory Wills.AbstrakPersoalan pengangkatan anak telah ditentukan dalam hukum Islam dan hukum perdata. Dimana kedua perangkat hukum tersebut menyatakan bahwa pengangkatan anak adalah sesuatu yang diperbolehkan selama demi kepentingan terbaik bagi anak angkat. Akan tetapi muncul persoalan terhadap pengangkatan anak yang dikaitkan dengan persoalan waris. Dalam hukum Islam dan hukum perdata mempunyai ketentuan yang berbeda. Dalam hukum Islam status anak angkat itu tidak dapat disamakan dengan anak kandung sehingga tidak dapat menerima harta warisan dari orang tua angkatnya. Meskipun demikian, anak angkat tersebut berhak mendapatkan wasiat dari orang tua angkatnya dengan ketentuan tidak boleh lebih dari sepertiga harta kekayaan orang tua angkat. Sedangkan menurut kitab undang-undang hukum perdata menyatakan bahwa anak angkat sebagai anggota keluarga dapat memperoleh harta warisan dari orang tua angkatnya berdasarkan ketentuan undang-undang yang berlaku (ab instestato) ataupun dengan adanya surat wasiat (testament).Kata Kunci : Anak Angkat, Hukum Islam, Hukum Perdata, Warisan, Wasiat Wajibah.

The judiciary is the most important element in human life because it is a place that demands those who lose their rights and can neutralize conflicting interests. The Religious Courts (PA) are part of this institution. The absolute competence of PA institutions includes handling inheritance matters. In Indonesia, there was an option for those who were Muslims to seek justice in the settlement of inheritance between the PA and the District Court (PN). The issuance of Marriage Law (UUP) number 1 of 1974 with the principle of Islamic personality is the answer to this option. However, the settlement of the case of inheritance of different religions has not been explicitly regulated in this regulation, so it still leaves new issues such as the case of the inheritance of the late Muhammad Armaya bin Renreng alias Armaya Renreng, Islam, with his wife Evie Lany Mosinta, Christian.

Neither under Ottoman rule nor under the Mandate—nor even under Israel law until 1957—were the Druzes recognised as a religious community. Until quite recently, they resorted to the Sharī'a Courts in matters of personal status although under the Palestine Order-in-Council of 1922 these courts had no jurisdiction over non-Muslims. But in 1957, the Druzes gained recognition as a religious community within the meaning of the Religious Communities (Organisation) Ordinance, 1926, and the Druze Spiritual Leadership was given the status of a religious council within the meaning of the Religious Communities (Organisation) (Druze Community) Regulations, 1957. In 1963, by virtue of the Druze Religious Courts Law, 1962, a court of first instance and a court of appeal were established for the community. These have exclusive jurisdiction in matters of marriage and divorce of Druzes in Israel who are nationals or residents of the State. In other matters of personal status they have concurrent jurisdiction. In the absence of agreement to the jurisdiction of the religious court, jurisdiction vests in the District Court. The Druze courts also have exclusive jurisdiction in matters relating to the creation or internal administration of waqfs (endowments) established before a Druze court under Druze law or established, prior to the coming into force of the Druze Religious Courts Law, in accordance with Druze custom and not before any judicial authority.

This study analyzes the results of ijtihad among the judges of the Religious Courts, particularly in the Palopo, Masamba, and Makassar Religious Courts in resolving cases of disputes over the inheritance rights of boys and girls in the Muslim community. Its main purpose is to analyze their method of ijtihad including the legal basis they apply in checking legal facts. This study uses a descriptive-analytic method supported by sociological, normative, and religious approaches. The results of the study concluded that the judges at the Palopo, Makassar, and Masamba Religious Courts have reconstructed the provisions of inheritance law in the Qur’an and the Islamic Law Compilation through their ijtihad. This is indicated by their decision in many cases, among others, to give all inheritance assets to daughters, whereas in the Qur’an and the Islamic Law Compilation the inheritance rights for girls have been determined as ½ a portion. Likewise their decision regarding the ratio of inheritance rights between boys and girls, which in the Qur’an, Hadith, and the Compilation of Islamic Law is determined to be 2: 1, reconstructed to be 1: 1; the decision to give 1/3 of the inheritance property to the adopted child through a grant or a wasiyat wajibah (will) mechanism, as well as inheritance rights to grandchildren as a substitute for the position of the father or mother.
