The lack of psycho-social understanding of pre-marital post-marriage course graduates will have great potential to add to the long line of early marriage ages in Pariaman City.

ROLE AND ETHICS OF HAKAM IN RESOLVING MATRIMONIAL DISPUTES

Conflicts and disagreements are part and parcel of married life. As revealed in the Qur’an the best way to resolve conflict in family is by the efforts of the spouses themselves. In the event of failure to restore harmony between the spouses, Islam laid out other remedies from outside the conjugal home where competent third parties are available to assist in resolving the conflict. In Malaysia, provisions relating to third party intervention can be found, for instance, under sections 47 and 48 of Part V on the Dissolution of Marriage of the Islamic Family Law (Selangor) Enactment 2003. The sections respectively provide clauses for conciliatory committee and arbitration. The courts, under s. 48 will appoint two hakam (arbitrators) to act for the husband and the wife. In agreement with the Islamic law of Tahkim, it is recommended that where possible, for a hakam to be from among the family of the spouses. This paper seeks to examine first, the role of Hakam in a Tahkim process and, second, the ethics of Hakam. To achieve this, apart from field research, the Hakam Rules 2014 of Selangor was referred to to examine detailed aspects on the qualifications, role and ethics of Hakam. A minor fieldwork was conducted at Shah Alam Syariah Subordinate Court. 20 case files involving settlement reached through tahkim sessions were examined. Separate interviews with Syariah Court Judge as well as ‘court-annexed’ hakam were also carried out. The findings suggest that besides emphasizing on the principal requirements, it is equally important to pay greater attention to promoting additional qualification and nurturing relevant skills in the light of the hakam duties as third party in resolving family disputes. Furthermore, maintaining the characteristic as hakam by following the code of ethics is another key to the successfulness of majlis tahkim.

The Position of Women and Women's Rights in Islamic Family Reform: A Comparison in Indonesia and Tunisia

This research was prepared with the aim of discussing the position and fight for women's rights in the Islamic Family reform (Comparison in Indonesia and Tunisia). Some women demand that their rights be taken away by male hegemony. This theme ultimately falls within the scope of the Holy Quran which is used as a source of legitimization of the relationship between men and women. The research method used in this study is the method of collecting data through library research. Data is collected by gathering information from various sources of literature, including books, magazines, journals, and others. From this research, it can be concluded that the reform of Islamic family law in Indonesia and Tunisia was carried out to answer the needs of the times and especially to raise the degree (status) of women, namely through nurturing, preserving and then fighting for women's rights. Although the minimum standards of marriage and polygamy differ in the two countries, they share a similar principle and goal: the protection of women's rights. Nonetheless, these rights are equivalent by nature in sharia (maqasyid ash-shari'ah), such as the right to mental and psychological health (equivalent to the nature of hifz an-nafs/maintaining the soul), then the right to maintain reproductive health (equivalent to the nature of hifdz al-nasl/maintaining offspring), Furthermore, the right to obtain equal opportunities in the field of education (commensurate with the nature of hifdz al-'aql / preserving the intellect) and the provisions of polygamy between the two countries also have commensurate goals and principles, namely to protect women's honor or human rights (commensurate with the principle of hifdz al-'ird).

The Status of Children Outside of Marriage and Its Relevance to the Reform of Islamic Family Law in Indonesia

This research discusses the Status of Children Outside of Marriage and its Relevance to the Renewal of Islamic Family Law in Indonesia. This research aims to find out specifically how the status of children outside of marriage and its relevance to the reform of Islamic Family Law in Indonesia. The method used in this research is the method of collecting data through library research. Data is collected by collecting information from various sources of literature, such as books, journals, magazines, and so on. From this research, it can be concluded that the scholars agree that children born out of wedlock have family ties both with the mother and her family. This is also the case in the laws and regulations governing marriage law in Indonesia which stipulate that the only civil relationship of children born out of wedlock is with the mother and her family. Nevertheless, the plaintiff permitted the Constitutional Court to conduct a judicial review, especially to ensure that her child was given permanent legal status and accepted by the defendant's family. After the respondent disputed the existence of the child and ignored the child's civil rights, including payment of monthly living expenses and school fees, the plaintiff was forced to take legal action. Thus, the Constitutional Court decided to partially grant the petitioners' claims based on the reasoning of the Panel of Judges. It was an extraordinary ijtihad when the Constitutional Court issued a new ruling on the status of children born out of wedlock. The Constitutional Court's decision is supported by arguments that are in the public interest (al-mashlahah al-'ammah), including protecting the future of children and providing a deterrent effect on men who have free sex so that adultery does not become commonplace. At least today, we can observe that legal progress in Indonesia also considers vulnerable groups, especially children.

The Interpretation of the Meaning of al-Qarábah in the Qur'an and Its Contextualization with Contemporary Kinship Models (An Interpretative Approach Using the Maudhu'i Tafsir Method)

Based on the interpretation in the Qur'an, relatives (al-qurbá) are interpreted flexibly, according to the context of the conversation, both from the side of the mother's and father's relatives. However, traditional interpretations tend to emphasize the paternal family, reflected in the influence of patrilineal Arabic culture. In the contemporary era, the concept of family in anthropology has varied, including maternal or bilateral models. This study analyzes how the meaning of al-qarábah in the Qur'an with the approach of maudhu'i tafsir, tracing its conformity with the contemporary kinship model? The type of qualitative research and interpretive approach is carried out in order to be answered in depth, data collection through library research, so that the data collected is in the form of secondary data obtained from the books of scholarly interpretation. Content analysis is carried out by collecting verses related to the method of tafsir maudhu'i. As a result, the method of tafsir maudhu'i al-qarābah in Islam is divided into three levels: al-qarābah al-qarībah (very close uterine relationship), al-qarābah al-mutawassiṭah (mahram relatives), and al-qarābah al-baʿidah (non-mahram relatives). In the context of the modern family, kinship is understood through the biological dimensions (nasab/DNA), religion (brothers and sisters), and social (neighborly relationships). Fathers and mothers are considered the nucleus of the family in Islam, with mothers having primary responsibility for the upbringing, education, and inheritance of children in the event of a father's death, affirming protection and harmony in Muslim families.

Husband's Rejection To Children's Lineage After Divorce

The religious scholars have different opinions in determining the maximum period of pregnancy for a woman. Fiqh scholars stated that lineage is one of the strong foundations in building a family life that can bind a person's personality based on blood unity. Islam has laid down guidelines in terms of the conviction of lineage according to Shariah law. This research uses a type of normative research, namely the approach of legal principles, legal theory, court decisions and uses the case approach method. The results of the research show that the husband's rejection of the child's lineage after divorce can be considered by the judge in convicting the child's lineage by examining all aspects and evidence of statements whether oral or written so that it is in line with syariah law and the Islamic Family Law (Kedah). As for if a pillar and condition of marriage is not fulfilled in line with the Sharia, then a wording of the marriage contract is invalid so that it can make the marriage broken (fasid) or the occurrence of dubious intercourse. In line with that, then the status of a child will be doubted by the parties about the legitimacy of his lineage.

Al-Fatani's Perspectives on Islamic Family Law: Insights from Hidayah Al-Muta’allim Wa’Umdah Al-Muta’alim

The evolution of Islamic Family Law in Malaysia is a nuanced amalgamation of Malay customs, cultural influences, and Islamic jurisprudence. Rooted in the history of Malaya, the formation of current Islamic Family Law reflects the fusion of these elements. This study delves into Daud Abdullah Al-Fatani's seminal work Hidayah Al-Muta’allim Wa’Umdah Al-Muta’alim, a pivotal contribution to Malaysian Islamic jurisprudence. Comparing Al-Fatani's insights with those of scholars from diverse schools of thought and contemporary Islamic Family Law enactments, the focus remains on key issues such as Zihār, Khiyar, and Nusyuz. The study reveals that Al-Fatani's perspectives transcend strict adherence to the Al-Shafi‘i school, while aligning with the Islamic Family Law (Federal Territories) Act 1984. His views on marriage dissolution and wife’s disobedience are influenced by Malay culture, while maintaining fidelity to the Qur’ān and Sunnah exemplified by his stance on Zihār. This resonates in Malaysia's current Islamic Family Law which is not rigidly bound to the Al-Shafi‘i school but intricately considers cultural conditions.
