This study aims to answer the question of how the law of inheritance and relationship with  daha tua under customary law Bali. After doing legal research by reviewing a number of normative rules of customary law relating to inheritance and the results were analyzed with the theory of the legal system, justice theory and feminist theory, then we can conclude the nature of inheritance under customary law Bali is the process of transfer of the assets, debts, obligations and the responsibility of the heir to the heir to consider whether the position as purusa or not as Purusa. This is in accordance with the kinship system adopted by indigenous people in Bali are patrilineal, where applicable three inheritance system that is individual, collective and mayorat. Daha tua in Bali inheritance under customary law is largely determined by its status as Purusa or not. Daha tua is purusa, if it does not have siblings (only child), where his right to inheritance is the same as a boy with the status of Purusa. If the status is not an daha tua purusa then heritage inadmissibility under customary law as contained in the Bali awig awig and Main Assembly decision Pakraman (MUDP) is the same as the young women who have not married, are only entitled to use the property in order to get rich from their parents as the soul of funds or property that are used to maintain its viability. Subsequent developments MUDP Assembly decided, a woman is entitled to receive half of the inheritance rights purusa after the third cut to inheritance and preservation of the interests of all the women were not converted and lawlessness on their parents. Inheritance received daha parents also depends on the role of the structure that has the authority to regulate the provision of such heritage Pakraman and Village Main Assembly. Furthermore, it is suggested to indigenous villages are advised to adopt decisions in the Great Assembly awig awig as stated in the decision Majelis Utama Desa Pakraman

The article deals with the development of the coregency system of Augustus and Agrippa from 29 to 18 BC: from formal and actual disparity of the coregents to their formal equality with the dominance of the princeps auctoritas. Particular attention is paid to the earlier stages of this development and to the crisis of 23 BC. The coregency system created by Augustus is often regarded by modern historians as means of ensuring uninterrupted succession of power. Agrippa as his coregent often is thought to have assumed the role of the regent who temporally replaces the princeps, just as it was in formal monarchies, or that of the tutor of the future rulers. However, the Roman system of state administration did not allow such type of regency. The princeps coregent, who was his equal in formal credentials but his inferior in terms of auctoritas, in case of the princeps death had to become the next princeps as his immediate successor. It is unlikely that later he was expected to voluntarily give up his power in favour of younger heir and to vanish from the political life altogether. The inheritance system under Augustus was like a ladder with the princeps at the top, the coregent who was also the immediate successor one step below, heirs of the next degree further down. In case of death of one of them, successors shifted one step up. The coregency had one more function: geographically it allowed Augustus and Agrippa to rule jointly the empire while staying in different parts of it.В статье исследуется развитие системы соправления Августа и Агриппы с 29 по 12 гг. до н. э.: от формального и фактического неравенства соправителей до их формального равенства при преобладании auctoritas принцепса, причём особое внимание уделяется раннему этапу этого развития и кризису 23 г. до н. э. Институт соправления, созданный Августом, часто рассматривается, как средство обеспечения бесперебойного перехода власти, причем Агриппе, как соправителю, НЕРЕДКО отводится роль регента, временно замещающего принцепса или воспитателя будущих правителей. Однако римская система государственного управления не предполагала регентства. Соправитель принцепса, равный ему по формальным полномочиям, но уступавший по auctoritas, в случае его смерти должен был СТАТЬ следующим принцепсом, ближайшим его наследником. Вряд ли предполагалось, что в будущем он должен добровольно уступить власть более молодому наследнику и исчезнуть из политической жизни. Система наследования при Августе представляла собой нечто вроде лестницы, на вершине которой стоял принцепс, на следующей ступени соправитель, он же избранный преемник, ниже наследники следующей очереди в случае смерти когото из них происходило продвижение наследников по ступеням вверх. Кроме того, соправление имело и иное значение позволяло Августу и Агриппе совместно управлять империей, находясь в разных ее частях.

This chapter explores captives’ fates after their capture, all along the Ottoman land and maritime frontiers, arguing that this was largely determined by individuals’ value for ransom or sale. First this was a matter of localized customary law; then it became a matter of inter-imperial rules, the “Law of Ransom.” The chapter discusses the nature of slavery in the Ottoman Empire, emphasizing the role of elite households, and the varying prices for captives based on their individual characteristics. It shows that the Ottoman state participated in ransoming, buying, exploiting, and sometimes selling both female and male captives. The state particularly needed young men to row on its galleys, but this changed in the late eighteenth century as the fleet moved from oars to sails. The chapter then turns to ransom, showing that a captive’s ability to be ransomed, and value, depended on a variety of individualized factors.

The history of Islamic development on the Haruku island, cannot be separated from the role of Muslim leaders or scholars who came from the Java. Evidence of the influence of Islam in Java can be seen from the architecture of the mosque on this island which takes the form of mosques of Wali in Java. This influence can also be seen from the shape of the terraced roof and floor plan of the mosque is square, which suggests a very strong Javanese mosque architecture. Nevertheless Javanese culture influence on the structure of society in Haruku is not always visible. The mosque on the island Haruku, not only serves as a place of worship, but also has other functions, namely as a symbol of communion between state and customs , as well as a symbol of the existence of an indigenous people. Customary law is a stronger influence than the main sharia law in Rohomoni. This study concludes that the Mosque has developed a more dominant factor as a customary symbol than a religious building. Keywords : Ancient Mosque, Haruku, Ambon, Islam, Indonesia. Sejarah perkembangan agama Islam di pulau Haruku Ambon tidak bisa dilepaskan dari para tokoh ataupun ulama yang berasal dari pulau Jawa. Bukti pengaruh Islam dari Jawa dapat dilihat dari bentuk arsitektur masjid di pulau tersebut yang mengambil bentuk dari masjid-masjid Wali di Jawa. Terlihat dari bentuk Atapnya yang bertumpang dan denah masjid yang berbentuk bujur sangkar, dari segi ini pengaruh arsitektur masjid Jawa sangat kuat. Meskipun demikian secara adat dan budaya tidak terlihat pengaruh budaya Jawa pada struktur masyarakat di Haruku. Masjid di pulau Haruku, tidak sekedar berfungsi sebagai tempat ibadah, tetapi mempunyai fungsi lain yaitu sebagai simbol persekutuan antar negeri dan adat, juga sebagai simbol eksistensi sebuah masyarakat adat. Pengaruh hukum Adat lebih kuat daripada hukum syariat utamanya di negeri Rohomoni. Sehingga terkesan Masjid lebih dominan digunakan sebagai simbol adat daripada bangunan ibadah. Kata Kunci : Masjid Kuno, Haruku, Ambon, Islam, Indonesia.

This chapter explores in considerable detail differences and similarities between the Islamic legal tradition and international law. It discusses in detail the historical interaction between these legal traditions, their co-evolution, and the academic conversations on this topic. The chapter also addresses the Islamic milieu’s contributions to international law, and sources of Islamic law including the Quran, sunna, judicial consensus, and analogical reasoning. It talks about the role of religion in international law. Mapping the specific characteristics of Islamic law and international law offers a glimpse of the contrasting and similar paradigms, spirit, and operation of law. This chapter identifies three points of convergence: law of scholars, customary law, and rule of law; as well as three points of departure: relation between law and religion, sources of law, and religious features in the courtroom (religious affiliation and gender of judges, holy oaths).
