Abstract: Riddah (apostasy), in the classical literatures of Islamic Jurisprudence, is categorized as a jarimah al-hudud (criminal act) with death penalty as the punishment. The fundamental issue is that the threat of the death penalty is only based on a single prophetic tradition, while it should be determined by the absolute and valid texts. It means that the death penalty is rooted to an absolute legal argumentation (qat’i al-dalalah), while, there is none of the verses of al-Qur’an which discusses about punishment for the perpetrator of apostasy. Otherwise, al-Qur’an absolutely guaranteesthe freedom of religion and belief. This research uses maqasid al-shari’ah (purposes of Islamic law)as an approach to see the purpose, spirit, and essential valueof the text to be a foundation and method in Islamic legal reasoning. The results of the research are: first, adopting what has been stipulated in al-Qur’an textually and formally without appreciating its purpose and wisdom is not wise; second, apostasy, which is a kind of a private matter between a servant and his God, should not be categorized as a jarimah al-hudud but as a jarimah ta’zir (undefined crime). In certain condition, however, apostasy could be charged by a maximum penalty (death penalty) if it is accompanied by other crimes and is worthyto be sentenced based on a judge’s argumentation.Keywords: Apostasy, sanctions, maqasid al-shari’ah Abstrak: Riddah dalam literatur fiqih klasik dikategorikan sebagai jarimah hudud, dan diancam dengan hukuman mati. Persoalan yang mendasar adalah ancaman hukuman mati tersebut hanya berdasarkan hadis ahad, padahal hudud dikonsepsikan sebagai jarimah dan hukuman yang telah ditentukan secara pasti oleh nass. Berarti hudud meniscayakan dalil yang qat’i al-dalalah, sedangkan dalam al-Qur’an tidak ada satu ayat pun yang membahas hukuman duniawi untuk pelaku riddah, sebaliknya al-Qur’an justru memberikan jaminan kebebasan beragama dan berkeyakinan secara mutlak. Maqasid al-shari’ah dipilih sebagai pendekatan untuk melihat bagaimana tujuan, ruh, dan nilai-nilai esensial shari’at dijadikan landasan dan patokan utama dalam penentuan hukum Islam. Dengan pendekatan maqasid al-shari’ah, diperoleh kesimpulan bahwa bukanlah sikap yang bijak ketika mengadopsi apa yang ditetapkan dalam nass secara literal dan formal legalistik tanpa mengapresiasi tujuan serta hikmah terdalam dari hukum tersebut. Riddah yang merupakan persoalan pribadi antara hamba dengan Tuhan-Nya, tidak selayaknya dikategorikan sebagai jarimah hudud. Namun sebagai jarimah ta’zir, riddah bisa dikenakan hukuman maksimal (mati) jika disertai dengan kejahatan lain yang menurut hakim harus dijatuhi hukuman tersebut.Kata Kunci: Riddah, sanksi, maqasid al-shari’ah

Abstract: An Exegesis on Apostasy Law in Islam. A discussion on apostasy almost spread throughout the corpus of Islamic law, both past and present. The concept of apostasy is now facing a serious challenge in a society that supports freedom of religion. Modern society tends to be of the opinion that the choice of individuals to enter or exit from a religion is a private matter that should not be interfered with by any authority. While Islamic jurisprudence, particularly that which is mainstream, further criminalizes apostates. Opening the entire argument about the concept of apostasy is a necessity. There are several verses of the Koran that speak of apostasy and there are various exegesis of apostasy which are discovered by scholars. There are scholars who criminalize apostates by referring to a Hadith, but there are also scholars who reject to have evidence of these Hadith.Keywords: apostasy, conversion, religious freedomAbstrak: Tafsir atas Hukum Murtad dalam Islam. Bahasan murtad hampir merata di seluruh korpus mengenai hukum Islam, baik dulu maupun sekarang. Konsep murtad kini menghadapi tantangan serius di tengah masyarakat yang mendukung kebebasan beragama. Masyarakat modern cenderung berpendirian bahwa pilihan seseorang untuk masuk atau keluar dari suatu agama adalah masalah privat yang tidak boleh diintervensi otoritas apapun. Sementara fikih Islam, terutama yang mainstream, lebih banyak mengkriminalkan orang murtad. Membuka seluruh argumen tentang konsep murtad adalah keniscayaan. Ada beberapa ayat Alquran yang membicarakan murtad dan ada beragam tafsir murtad yang dikemukakan para ulama. Ada ulama yang mengkriminalkan orang murtad dengan merujuk suatu Hadis, tetapi ada juga ulama yang menolak ber-hujjah dengan Hadis tersebut.Kata Kunci: murtad, pindah agama, kebebasan beragamaDOI: 10.15408/ajis.v13i2.940

Abstract: This article discusses about the freedom of religion in Indonesia according to riddah law ratio legis. In Indonesia, the guarantee of religious freedom is in the 29th article of 2nd paragraph in the 1945 Constitution that someone is free to choose and embrace a particular religion. Persons who convert from one religion to another shall not be punished, except those whose religion denounces, abuses or condemns oother religions which may be punished. The act is regulated in the article 156a of the Criminal Code concerning the prohibition of abuse or defamation of religion. Islam guarantees freedom of religion as the Qur'anic verse of al-Baqarah verse 256 that there is no compulsion to enter Islam. In a Islamic law, a person who comes out of Islam is called apostate and his blood is halal to be killed. The act is included in the category of riddah jarîmah which can be sentenced a hadd punishment, death penalty. Nevertheless, there are some opinions that in Islamic law not all people come out of Islam can be put to death, only those who emerge from their religion that cause rebellion, chaos on the earth that can be killed. Keywords: Religious freedom, Indonesia, ratio legis, riddah. Abstrak: Artikel ini membahas tentang kebebasan beragama di Indonesia menurut ratio legis hukum riddah. Di Indonesia, jaminan atas kebebasan beragama terdapat dalam pasal 29 ayat 2 UUD 1945.

AbstractThe right to freedom of religion is one of the fundamental rights guaranteed in Islam. This is emphasised in verse 256 of Sura al-Baqara: “Let there be no compulsion in religion”. However, the majority of classical Muslim jurists opine that the right to freedom of religion is not applicable to Muslims, that Muslims who intend to leave the Islamic faith or who have apostatised should be condemned to the death penalty. In reality, punishment for apostasy is not prescribed in the Qur'an and had not been practised by the Prophet (S.A.W.). Instead, the Prophet (S.A.W.) had imposed the death penalty upon apostates because their acts were contemptuous of, and hostile towards, Islam. Muslims who merely renounced the Islamic religion were only required to undergo a process of repentance (tawba). The right to freedom of religion is guaranteed in Article 11(1) of the Federal Constitution of Malaysia. However, as Islamic matters belong to the state jurisdictions, most provisions in relation to apostasy are under the exclusive jurisdiction of the Shari'a Courts. Apostates are subject to punishments such as fine, imprisonment and whipping. This article makes an in-depth study of the right to freedom of religion and the issue of apostasy from the Islamic law perspective, and argues that Muslims who intend to leave the Islamic faith are only required to undergo a process of repentance (tawba), and any punishment prescribed for apostasy is contrary to the right to freedom of religion.

The study of takhrij (retrieval) is one of the most important mechanisms in ijtihad (independent reasoning) by fuqaha’ (jurists) and usuli (lit. those who go back to first principles). In usul (principles) and furu’ (branches) of Islamic law, the usulis were deliberately referring to madhab (school of law) founders especially after the decrease of mujtahids who managed to attain a level of independence and able to deal with detailed evidences in finding solutions to legal problem. Among the attention of takhrij of usuli is to expound legal maxim principles from fundamental sources the Quran and hadith contained of principle of legal reasoning and branches of Islamic jurisprudence. Utilizing descriptive analytical method, this article scrutinizes the concept of takhrij of usuli, its categories and some of its applications. The research found that the takhrij of usuli is concerned with the derivation of Islamic legal maxims, the principles of legal reasoning as well as the branches of law. However, the derivation is unconcerned about specific evidence of Islamic jurisprudence topics but the whole evidence whether literal, divergence or conformity of ibadat (submissive obedience), mu’amalat (transactions), and personal interest topic.

The Common properties (community property) is an asset that the husband and wife acquired during the household lifes, which both of them is agree that after united through marriage bonds, that the property produced by one or both of them will be common property. It shows, that if there's an agreement between husband and wife before marriage (did not to unify their property), then the property produced both will not become a joint treasure. Thus, if a husband or wife dies, or divorces, then the property owned by both of them can be distributed in accordance with their respective shares, another case when the two couples are not making an agreement, then the property gained during marriage bonds can be divided into types of communal property. In Islamic law, this kind of treasure is not contained in the Qur'an or Sunnah. Nor in Islamic jurisprudence. However, Islamic law legalizes the existence of common property as long as it is applicable in a society and the benefit in the distribution of such property. In contrast to the positive law, this property types have been regulated and described in the Marriage Law, as well as the Islamic Law Compilations, which became the legal restriction in the affairs of marriage in force in Indonesia. In this study, the author tries to compile the existence of common property according to the Islamic law reviews and positive law.

In Islamic law judgements on any human action are usually evaluated in terms of the intention involved. Accordingly, the rules of substantive issues have to be accommodated under the basic principles of Islamic jurisprudence. The understanding of these principles by the juristic scholar is highly rewarding because it will lead the muftī to the right path in deriving legal opinions from the original sources. The basic principle of Islamic jurisprudence, which stipulates that ‘all actions depend on intentions,’ has played an important role in the construction of Islamic jurisprudence. Moreover, this rule has a special place in the theory of Islamic legal contract. So what is the effect of intention in the validity of human actions and legal contracts? It is known that pure intention has significant effects on spiritual worship and legal contracts of transaction. It also gives guidance for earning rewards from Almighty Allah. This article concentrates on the effect of intention in perpetual worship, the concept of action and intention in Islamic legal works, the kind of contract with all its components, and the jurists' views on the effects of intention in human action and legal contract along with their discussion and counter-arguments.

The division of marital joint property after the breakup of marriage, whether dropping out of marriage due to divorce or due to death, is a new thing in Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh). This is because the concept of mutual treasure is not known in the books of classical Islamic jurisprudence of Muslim scholars of the schools at their times, in which their work are always made as referral in the legal cases up to the present days. In Indonesia, the distribution of common property is regulated in the Compilation of Islamic Laws Articles 96 and 97, which stipulate the rules of distribution of joint property for married couples whose married are off as a result of divorce or death. Article 97 of the Compilation of Islamic Law actually provides an overview of the flexibility of the distribution of common marital property, including in certain cases because the article is regulating (regelen) rather than forcing (dwigen), so that the division is not absolutely divided equally between husband and wife, and casuistically the provisions of that article may be disregarded.

The development of waqf assets in the form of adding the function of waqf is a new phenomenon in the problems of Islamic law jurisprudence even in positive law in Indonesia. In national law (positive), Indonesia has regulated this issue with the existence of laws and government regulations regarding waqf both movable and immovable waqf assets, even in its development every property in waqf must have an Deed and / or certificate. Whereas in Islamic jurisprudence, the development of waqf assets in the form of additional functions is one of the problems that can be said to be new, it needs legal conclusions and even has to be seen from various theoretical concepts such as maqashidu sharia. Therefore this research will examine the issue of developing waqf assets based on the Waqf Law and maqashid syari'ah. This research is an empirical legal research using a sociological legal approach, with data collection through documentation and interviews. The results of the research show that the development of waqf assets is permitted according to the law, but with the stipulated conditions, besides that the development of waqf assets is also permissible in Islamic jurisprudence as long as it is solely for reasons in accordance with the concept of maqasidu syari'ah and the point is to seek maslahat.
