In Indonesia, one of the institutions authorized to issue fatwas is the Indonesian Ulama Council (MUI). MUI is an institution with the role and authority to issue fatwas for Indonesian citizens who are diverse in Islam which are not mentioned in the Al-Quran and Hadith. Although not all groups can accept the fatwa issued by the MUI or there are reaping criticism and controversy by some circles, the influence and role of the MUI fatwa are considerable in maintaining the peace of the Indonesian people. Departing from this, it is essential to see fatwas based on the characteristics and essence of fatwas on Islamic economic law. This paper is conducted in qualitative research. There are several approaches used in this paper, namely, the normative approach, the historical approach, and the political approach. This paper aims to reveal the characteristics and essence of fatwas on sharia economic law in Indonesia. The analysis results show that fatwas as a product of Islamic law are identical to fiqh and have inherent specific characteristization. In essence, a fatwa can become state law if there is recognition through competent state institutions.

Ranub kang haba is a khitbah’s official process, as a bond between bride and groom. At ranub kang haba, the family of man’s side brings betel vine (ranup) as a symbol of bonding reinforcement (khong haba). Besides betel vine, the groom’s side also brings Aceh’s traditional food (penajoh), a set of woman’s clothes and gold jewelry, which is ring (jeunamae). If a few days later the bride cancels the wedding, Jeunamae will be given back as double to the man. This article tries to explain the practice of ranub khong haba and the consequences of tradition’s cancellation to  Acehnese society. This kind of study is the combination of socio legal-historical approach. Sociological approach is used to observe the patterns of society’s interaction & behavior, both that inspiring the renewal of Islam’s law and Islamic law legislation and the comformity of conciousness (which manifest in society’s behavior). The legal or juridical approach is done by considering certain elements of Islamic law, which is ‘urf concept. Historical approach is used on consideration that history analysis can see ranub kong haba practice objectively in relation with ‘urf concepts in Islam’s contexts. This study found that ranub kong haba is a local wisdom in affirmation of khitbah procession that has a base in Islamic law. However, the custom of giving the dowry back as double  that is brought in khitbah process is an ‘urf shahih practice, which actually doesn’t have any command nor forbidden in Islam. However, the matter is seen as a good thing because it can avoid us (sadd al-zariah) from breaking our promise to others.

AbstractThis study examines the role of religious courts in the construction of Islamic inheritance law. Its urgency is to open the dimensions of birth and the growth of inheritance law in the development period of religious courts. In addition, it opens up concrete reasons for the existence of the inheritance law bill that has yet to reach a climax. The methodology in this study is a narrative literature study, with a historical approach by observing juridical aspects in the growth of inheritance law.The findings in this study show that Islamic law existed since the era of the sultanate and was used as an applied law in society, including inheritance law that has been embedded in Islamic law. The authority of the religious judiciary in the field of inheritance became disoriented when the colonialists entered the colonies by applying the receptiveness theory as outlined in the form of the Staatsblad. The climax of the authority of the religious courts is the unification of the judiciary (one roof system) and its independence as the executor of judicial power. The challenge for religious courts in the field of inheritance is the unavailability of material law and the inheritance law bill which creates uncertainty.Keywords: Dynamics; Inheritance law; Religious Courts.

The Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) has an important role in answering the increasingly complex problems of Muslims through fatwas. However, in the Indonesian legal system, fatwas are not considered a source of material law that has legal validity as a solution to the problems of Muslims in Indonesia. Therefore, this study aims to describe the position of fatwas in the legal system in Indonesia and the existence of the fatwas of the Indonesian Ulema Council in addressing the problems of the ummah. This research is a normative legal research using three types of approaches consisting of a statutory approach, a historical approach, and a conceptual approach. The results of this study concluded that: firstly, the position of fatwas in the construction of Islamic law has a high position. Fatwas are seen as a solution that can break the ice in legal development that is not accommodated by the texts of the Quran. So, substantively and sociologically, fatwas have a strong and binding position in Islamic law. Secondly, the existence of the fatwa of the Indonesian Ulema Council in responding to the problems of the Ummah can be seen in two aspects. The first aspect, fatwas in the perspective of Islamic legal authority are binding sociologically in substance. This is because fatwas are explanations and interpreters of the texts of the Quran regarding Islamic law. The second aspect, fatwas from the perspective of the hierarchy of laws and regulations, legally and formally, do not have any position in the ranking of legal norms. However, it is constitutionally guaranteed through Article 29 of the 1945 Constitution that guarantees the realization of the fulfillment of all Islamic law for Muslims in Indonesia.
