Abstract
Cases in the Syariah Courts must be dealt with justifiably in accordance with Syariah. Thus, in offenses relating to the dissemination of deviant teachings in cyberspace, it is vital that proper investigation and prosecution be carried out successfully. In addition, the whole litigation process must be in line with Maqasid Al-Syariah. However, there is a lack of study in the literature on the application of Maqasid al-Syariah as a guide to confronting procedural obstacles in the investigation and prosecution of such cases. By using a qualitative method of document analysis and doctrinal study, the intrinsic objective of this study is to analyze the potential of Maqasid Al-Syariah in addressing the procedural obstacles in the prosecution of cases of deviant teachings in cyberspace. The study’s specific objectives are to (1) identify the procedural obstacles in the investigation and prosecution of cases on deviant teachings in cyberspace; and (2) analyze how the procedural obstacles in the investigation and prosecution of cases on deviant teachings in cyberspace can be addressed by using the guidance of Maqasid Al-Syariah. This study finds that Maqasid Al-Syariah is a valuable spiritual guide to investigators and prosecutors to carry out their duties diligently according to procedural and substantive laws. In addition, it guides them in finding possible solutions to the obstacles that they might encounter in carrying out their respective roles.
