This study aims at examining the legality of interreligious marriage according to Islamic law and Indonesian positive law. To reach the goal set by this research, a descriptive method is used in the writing while an analytical method is employed to scrutinize the relevant problems. This study finds that interreligious marriage has spread widely among Indonesians that it has now become a phenomenon. However, Islam does not recognize a Muslim woman's marriage unless she is married by a man belonging to the same religion, i.e. a Muslim. A Muslim man is not permitted to marry a mushrik (polytheist) woman. It is lawful for him to marry a woman from the Ahlul Kitaab (Jews and Christians), but Indonesian ulemas prohibit such a marriage as well because of the negative outcomes. Meanwhile, the 1974 Indonesian Marriage Law fails to address the issue of interreligious marriage in a clear manner. This brings forth at least three interpretations: firstly, the law does not regulate interreligious marriage at all; secondly, the law allows it; and thirdly, the law denies it. Through an analysis, the last interpretation is found to have stronger reasons than the others.  Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji legalitas pernikahan antaragama menurut hukum Islam dan hukum positif Indonesia. Agar tercapai tujuan yang diinginkan, maka penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif untuk menganalisis masalah yang sedang diteliti. Studi ini menemukan bahwa pernikahan antaragama telah menyebar luas di kalangan masyarakat Indonesia yang kini telah menjadi fenomena. Namun, Islam tidak mengenali pernikahan wanita Muslim kecuali jika dia menikah dengan pria yang memiliki agama yang sama, yaitu seorang Muslim. Seorang pria Muslim tidak diizinkan untuk menikahi wanita musyrik (politeis). Dan halal baginya untuk menikahi wanita dari Ahlul Kitaab (Yahudi dan Kristen), namun sebagian ulama Indonesia tetap melarang pernikahan semacam ini, karena beberapa alasan. Sementara itu, Undang-Undang Perkawinan Indonesia 1974 gagal menangani masalah pernikahan antaragama dengan cara yang jelas. Ini setidaknya menghasilkan tiga interpretasi: pertama, hukum sama sekali tidak mengatur pernikahan antaragama; Kedua, hukum mengizinkannya; Ketiga, undang-undang tersebut menolaknya. Melalui sebuah analisis tersebut di atas, disimpulkan bahwa jenis interpretasi yang terakhir ditemukan memiliki alasan yang lebih kuat daripada alasan yang lainnya.

There is a difference in the concept of the legal maturity limit according to Islamic law and positive law. The legal subject's maturity is fifteen years old or ihtilam for men and menstruation for women. whereas according to positive law there is no legal certainty regarding legal skills in the age of 18 years, 21 years, or after marriage, resulting in confusion in determining one's skills before the law. Then the age difference in the Marriage Law for men and women needs to be equalized and needs to be re-agreed in accordance with physical and mental considerations for all parties who will get married

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.

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.]

The article is devoted to the study of the peculiarities of the legal system of Muslim countries. The author analyzes the essence of the concept of human rights and freedoms in Muslim law, as well as comparative characteristics with the Western legal system. The general principles of law in the Muslim system, due to the peculiarities of its historical formation, establish the criteria of conformity of positive law to the values of a particular society, limiting the action of a law to generally accepted moral criteria. It is noted that certain aspects of Sharia have different meanings for followers of Islam and those who do not adhere to this faith. In a ratio religious and secular rules of conduct operate differently. The author points out that in the theory of Muslim law, all people are equal regardless of their social background, skin color or language. It also speaks of the equality of all before the law and the court, but in practice a completely different situation arises. The article analyzes the disrespect for women's rights and the fact that women are essentially unprotected in Islam. It is noted that human rights, which should be universal in nature, were neglected by delegates to the 1993 UN Human Rights Conference in Vienna. In view of this, Islamic society is faced with the question: either Islam and Sharia, or democracy and human rights. At the same time, no explanation was given as to why one should be chosen over the other. The author proposes to gradually incorporate Muslim law into the law of Western countries, but only with respect for the national and cultural peculiarities of the East. It also highlights the importance of developing categories of human rights in the Muslim legal system, taking into account the standards of the Western concept of human rights and conducting a detailed study of Islamic law, rather than simply adding Western notions of natural human rights to Muslim law.

Tulisan ini mengkaji pemberlakuan hukum syariah sebagai bagian dari hukum nasional Indonesia. Ada dua permasalahan pokok yang dibahas: pertama, bagaimanakah posisi hukum Islam dalam tubuh hukum nasional? Kedua, apakah legalisasi syariah telah mencerminkan idealitas hukum syariah bagi masyarakat Islam Indonesia? Untuk membahas dua permasalahan ini, penulis memfokuskan pada UU tentang Zakat, wakaf dan haji. Dari kajian yang penulis lakukan, dapat disimpulkan beberapa hal: pertama, keberadaan UU terkait zakat, wakaf dan haji merupakan perwujudan penerimaan sistem hukum Indonesia terhadap pemberlakuan hukum Islam sebagai bagian integral dari hukum nasional. Kedua, meski telah masuk dalam sistem hukum nasional, namun UU tentang zakat, wakaf dan haji mempunyai kekuatan dan kelemahan. Kekuatannya terletak bahwa hukum Islam telah menjadi hukum positif, sehingga pemberlakuannya menjadi mutlak di tengah masyarakat. Kelemahannya, UU itu lebih menitikberatkan pada persoalan administratif, dari pada mandatory. Konsekuensinya, UU tersebut tidak lebih dari sekedar birokratisasi-syari’ah.This paper examines the implementation of sharia as part of Indonesian national law. There are two main issues that are discussed: first, what is the position of Islamic law in the body of national law? Second, does the legalization of sharia reflect the ideal of shariah for Indonesian Islamic society? To discuss the two issues, the authors focus on the Law on Zakat, wakaf and hajj. From the writer's study, it can be concluded: First, the existence of the zakat, wakaf and hajj laws is the embodiment of acceptance of Indonesian legal system towards the implementation of Islamic law as an integral part of national law. Second, although it has been included in the national legal system, the Law of zakat, wakaf and hajj has strengths and weaknesses. Its strength lies in that Islamic law which has become a positive law, so its enforcement becomes absolute in society. The weakness is that the Law focuses on administrative matters rather than mandatory. Consequently, the law is nothing more than a shari'ah-bureaucratization.
