The problem of the principle of submission in the divorce law in the Religious Court by a non-Muslim couple occurs because the couple's marriage is based on Islamic law. What cannot be separated from Islamic law is Islamic family law because it is related to the faith of a Muslim. Islamic family law can only apply to Muslims and cannot apply to non-Muslims. The problem of the principle of submission to the divorce law was incomplete (incomplete norm) or the existence of a legal vacuum (vacuum of norm) in marriage law in Indonesia. This research is a legal research and is normative in nature. The approach used is statutory, case, and conceptual. The legal materials used are primary, secondary and tertiary. The method of collecting legal materials is first to qualify the facts and then to qualify the law. The analytical tool used is legal interpretation in the form of principal, systematic and grammatical interpretation.

The objectives of the study were to find out and analyze: (1) the reasons of collateral seizure on matrimonial joint assets where it can guarantee the Plaintiff's rights and (2) The views of Islamic law on the collateral seizure of matrimonial joint assets in the decision of Manna Religious Court No.54/Pdt.g/2019/PA.Mna. This study was normative legal research. The reasons for the seizure of the collateral filed by the Plaintiff in the lawsuit case No.54/Pdt.G/2019/PA.Mna were: a) the reasons for collateral seizure on matrimonial joint assets were due to the Plaintiff’s claim in the lawsuit concerning the assets under the Defendant's authority; b). Judge panel considered the rules based on Al-Qur'an surah An-Nisa verse 32, regulation in Marriage Law, and Compilation of Islamic Law that  state the right of Matrimony Joint Assets belongs to both parties, and since the assets were under the Defendant's authority, a collateral seizure is considered necessary; c) the reasons of collateral seizure on matrimonial joint assets were also to provide legal certainty and equal rights to each party; d) to ensure the integrity of the assets, to get them to remain maintained and present; and e) the seizure was to avoid the right transfer of the asset to other parties and to prevent the assets from being misused or damaged. The legal power of collateral seizure of matrimonial joint assets in the decision of Manna Religious Court No.54/Pdt.g/2019/PA.Mna could give the Plaintiff's legal rights in writing, but when viewed from Islamic law it could not be able to achieve the objectives of Islamic law itself, namely the benefit and usefulness principles. This was due to the absence of sanctions and strong foundations for those who did not carry out the decision. The court only granted the seizure stamp and joint assets seizure but did not decide the execution over the joint assets, so the Plaintiff's rights could not be fully protected. Islamic law considered the collateral seizure on matrimonial joint assets in the decision of the Manna Religious Court No.54/Pdt.g/2019/PA.Mna as something that is not prohibited and mentioned in surah Al-Baqarah verse 188.

The reality of the difference in applying Islamic law in the context of marriage law legislation in modern Muslim countries is undeniable. Tunisia and Turkey, for example, have practiced Islamic law of liberal nuance. Unlike the case with Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates that still use the application of Islamic law as it is in their fiqh books. In between these two currents many countries are trying to apply the law in their own countries by trying to bridge the urgent new needs and local wisdom. This is widely embraced by modern Muslim countries in general. This paper reviews typologically the heterogeneousness of family law legislation of modern Muslim countries while responding to modernization issues. Typical buildings seen from modern family law reforms can be classified into four types. The first type is progressive, pluralistic and extradoctrinal reform, such as in Turkey and Tunisia. The second type is adaptive, unified and intradoctrinal reform, as in Indonesia, Malaysia, Morocco, Algeria and Pakistan. The third type is adaptive, unified and intradoctrinal reform, represented by Iraq. While the fourth type is progressive, unifiied and extradoctrinal reform, which can be represented by Somalia and Algeria.

This paper will focus on polygamy with a philosophical approach to Islamic law and directly associated with the marriage law in Indonesia. Polygamy is an issue in family law of Islam in the discussion of fiqih both classic and contemporary. Even polygamy is a discussion that is always debated theologically and anthropocentrically. In the positive law in Indonesia, polygamy is allowed with certain conditions which are strict and in it famous with the principle of monogamy. The main requirement of polygamy both in fiqih and in Act No. 1 of 1974 on Marriage is fair, both physically and spiritually. Polygamy is a right that can only be owned by the husband and not owned by the wife. In the philosophy of Islamic law, polygamy is certainly not due only to the satisfaction of mere biological. But more than that, polygamy is interpreted as a solution to resolve a number of social issues such as the poor orphans, protection of the poor widow, and others. Polygamy in philosophy also has the meaning of protection, to avoid lewdness, and justice for feminists. However, in practice in Indonesia, philosophy of polygamy in the Marriage Law considered  by some of parties, can not be realized effectively. This is due to the absence of strict sanctions, weak administration, and the lack of public awareness in obeying the rules of religion and the Marriage Law in Indonesia. [Tulisan ini akan difokuskan tentang poligami dengan pendekatan filosofis hukum Islam dan dikaitkan langsung dengan hukum perkawinan di Indonesia. Poligami merupakan isu dalam hukum keluarga Islam baik dalam pembahasan fikih klasik maupun fikih kontemporer. Bahkan poligami adalah pembahasan yang selalu diperdebatkan secara teologis maupun antroposentris. Dalam hukum positif di Indonesia, poligami diperbolehkan dengan syarat-syarat tertentu yang ketat dan di dalamnya terkenal dengan asas monogami. Syarat utama poligami baik dalam  fikih maupun dalam Undang-Undang No. 1 Tahun 1974 tentang Perkawinan adalah adil, baik secara lahir maupun secara batin. Poligami merupakan hak yang hanya dimiliki oleh suami dan tidak dimiliki oleh istri. Secara filosofi hukum Islam, poligami tentu saja bukan karena hanya untuk kepuasan biologis semata. Namun lebih dari itu, poligami dimaknai sebagai solusi untuk menyelesaikan sejumlah persoalan sosial seperti adanya anak yatim yang kurang mampu, perlindungan janda yang lemah dan lain-lain. Poligami secara filosofi juga memiliki makna perlindungan, menghindari perbuatan keji, dan keadilan bagi kaum feminis. Namun dalam praktinya di Indonesia, makna filosofi poligami dalam UU Perkawinan dianggap sejumlah pihak tidak dapat diwujudkan efektif. Hal ini disebabkan karena tidak adanya sanksi yang tegas, lemahnya administrasi, dan lemahnya kesadaran masyarakat dalam menaati aturan agama dan UU Perkawinan di Indonesia.]

In welcoming 2019 concurrent general elections, the General Election Commission issued PKPU No. 20 of 2018, one of which banned former convicts of corruption from becoming legislative candidates on the grounds that corruption is an extraordinary offense that is commonly practiced by legislators both individually and in congregation. The regulation is stated in Article 4 paragraph (3) PKPU No. 20 of 2018 concerning Nominations for Members of DPR, Provincial DPRD and Regency / City DPRD. However, the regulation was canceled with the issuance of Supreme Court decision No. 46 P / HUM / 2018. Based on this, the limitation of the problem of this research is how to measure the aspects of the legal objectives behind the decision No. 46 P / HUM / 2018 which are more pro-corrupt so that they can understand the judge's decidendi ratio in canceling the prohibition of ex-convicts from becoming legislators. This type of research is normative legal research with a statutory approach and conceptual approach. The theoretical basis in the presentation of research results is the theory of legal goals by Gustav Radbruch namely justice, certainty and usefulness which is compared with Islamic law. The results of this study indicate that the Supreme Court's consideration overturned PKPU No. 20 of 2018 because it is considered contrary to Article 240 of Law No. 7 of 2017 concerning General Elections and Article 12 of Law No. 12 of 2011 concerning Formation of Laws and Regulations. The Supreme Court's considerations in the a quo ruling contain the three legal objectives. However, it is more inclined to legal certainty, so it does not reflect the value of justice that lives in the community. The cause of not achieving the values of justice that live in the community in the a quo decision is because the basis for testing the regulation is Law No. 7 of 2017 concerning General Elections does not prohibit such matters, even though the nomination rules on the executive body namely the President and Vice President require that they do not have a bad track record. Likewise when viewed from Islamic law which requires legislative candidates called ahlul ahli wal aqdi must have a fair way which means having integrity and a good image in the society.

Malaysia is a Muslim country consisting of thirteen States and Federal Territories (Kuala Lumpur, Labuan and Putrajaya). In principal, the official madhhab that is practised  in Malaysia is Shafi’i Madhhab and this becomes common to all Malaysians even though it is not officially registered in the identification card of a Malaysian. Accordingly, in many religious affairs and practices, the society is based upon the principles or fiqh al-Shafi’i. Nevertheless, views of other Sunni madhhab is freely practiced by all Malaysians. Furthermore, the codification on Islamic law in the State Enactments in all States in Malaysia is based upon four Sunni schools of law. It follows that the Islamic law in Malaysia is not purely based on the Shafi’i madhhab and in many occasions adopted the view of Hanafi school depending on the adaptability of the opinion to the society. This article deals with the application of fiqh al-Hanafi under the Islamic Family Law (Federal Territories) Act 1984. Analysis will extend to the practices in the Malaysian Syariah Court when dealing with cases involving Muslims and the most appropriate view of the madhhab that is to be adopted by the Syariah Court in order to solve a particular issue. The study employs the qualitative method of study where it only involves library research. It is believed that this research will be beneficial to all who seek knowledge and useful to all researchers, academicians, legal practitioners, students and scholars.

Issues on custody, maintenance, marriage guardianship of the illegitimate child and his/her relation with biological father that married to his / her mother will also be discussed according to the opinions of the jurists as well as Islamic family law in Malaysia. This study utilized content analysis method on discussions put forward by the jurists in authoritative jurisprudence books as well as contemporary jurisprudence books and law provisions that are provided in Islamic and civil law implemented in Malaysia to date. The findings show that Islamic family law protects rights of the illegitimate child in terms of self-identity (lineage), custody, maintenance and marriage guardianship. However, the issue regarding the surname of the illegitimate child was raised in Civil Court, arguing that he/she should be allowed to be named to his/her biological father who had married the mother. This issue needs to be scrutinized. The amendment should be carried out so that matters related to the Muslims' personal laws are implemented according to the Islamic law.

This study discusses the way in determining ‘illat through the munasabah method proposed by Imam al-Ghazali in the perspective of Islamic law. The study focuses on two main problems: the identification of ‘illat through munasabah and the legal formulation to utilize hikmat to obtain ‘illat according to al-Ghazali. This normative legal research used a legal history approach as an analytical tool to examine the Islamic scholars’ thoughts on concepts, theories and ways of doing istinbath. The study concluded that according to al-Ghazali there are three kinds of munasabah in determining ‘illat, consisting of munasib mu’atstsir, munasab mula’im, and munasib gharib. In munasib mu’atstsir, there is no issue found in seeking ‘illat because the ‘illat is understood directly from the nash or ijma’. Therefore, munasabah is no longer needed in the determining ‘illat. Here, the munasabah method focuses on munasib mula’im and munasib gharib in identifying ‘illat. Munasib mula’im seeks for the genus ‘illat, an ‘illat drawn from every event that has been predetermined by the nash, by examining the same hikmah in each of the events. Such hikmah is then used as the genus ‘illat which will later be applied as qiyas for other events that have been legally stipulated by the nash. On the other hand, munasib gharib seeks for the species ‘illat, an ‘illat obtained from an event that has been predetermined by the nash, with no comparison found in other events. ‘Illat determined from munasib gharib is also hikmah, having no concrete nature. In the perspective of legal history, this method of seeking ‘illat is inseparable from kalam and philosophy as was the development of the Islamic sciences at the time. As such, this had also affected al-Ghazali’s mastery in Islamic law as well as in other Islamic disciplines.

This research focuses on discussing changes in the minimum age for marriage as stipulated in Law Number 16 of 2019 as an amendment to Law Number 1 of 1974 concerning marriage. The new Marriage Law changes the minimum marriage limit for men and women who will marry at least 19 years of age, previously the marriage limit for men is 19 years old and for women is 16 years old. This research seeks to find the pros and cons of legalizing the minimum age limit for marriage according to the views of the staff of the marriage register at the Office of Religious Affairs (KUA) in Yogyakarta who were non-randomly selected. The results of this research indicate that the process of changing the age limit of marriage does not see the pros and cons in society. Most importantly, the enactment of this law can hurt women, so that the purpose of reforming Islamic family law can realize legal unification by the times.
