Ahmad Hirzan Anwari, Zaenul Mahmudi, Moh Toriquddin — Wed, 27 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0800

This study aims to discuss the prevention of child marriage by the Religious Affairs Office (KUA) of Kraksaan District through partnerships in the review of Lawrence Meir Friedman's legal system theory. This is due to the high number of child marriage applications recorded at the KUA of Kraksaan District from 2022 to 2023. Then, the effectiveness of preventing child marriage will be measured through Lawrence Meir Friedman's legal system theory. Qualitative methods are used in this research. Qualitative methods are research methods based on philosophy and are useful for studying scientific conditions (experiments). In this partnership strategy, the KUA works with several partners, including Village Officials, Village Heads, Non-Civil Servant Employees/Counselors, Community Health Centers (PUSKESMAS), Kraksaan District Government, NU, Muhammadiyah and al-Irsyad. As a result, 50 applications were prevented, and five were postponed out of 55 applications in 2022. In 2023, 13 applications were successfully rejected, and nine were accepted out of 22 applications in 2023. In the review of Lawrence Meir Friedman's legal system theory, the substance of the law is Law No.16 of 2019. This law is not effective because Article 7 still provides an opportunity for people to marry children. Meanwhile, the legal structure comprises the structural officials of the KUA. The KUA, assisted by its partners, is said to be effective in preventing child marriage, as seen from the data on the success rate of preventing child marriage mentioned above. The legal culture is the people of Kraksaan Subdistrict who still strongly hold the tradition of arranged marriage, maintain the good name of the family, parents want to escape their responsibilities, and the belief that many families will provide a lot of sustenance.

Nur Faidah, Feni Juwantri — Sat, 30 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0800

In the era of rapid globalization and modernization, Islamic law faces the challenge of remaining relevant and responsive to current developments. The classical school of jurisprudence, which has been the basis of Islamic law for centuries, must now face complex contemporary issues. Contemporary legal theory offers a new approach that has the potential to integrate Islamic law with modern dynamics. This research explores the convergence between classical schools of jurisprudence and contemporary legal theory, highlighting the urgent need to unite these two legal traditions. Using an interdisciplinary approach, this research analyzes the main characteristics, challenges and opportunities in the legal integration process. This study also explores the flexibility of classical schools of jurisprudence in adopting modern legal concepts. It is hoped that the research results will provide a conceptual and practical framework for legal convergence, which can be applied in Islamic law reform in various contexts. This convergence is important in dealing with contemporary legal issues such as bioethics, cyber law, global financial regulation, and environmental challenges, paving the way for productive dialogue between Islamic legal traditions and modern legal systems.

This study investigates students' experiences and challenges when presenting at international Islamic conferences, focusing on their confidence and self-expression. Using a qualitative case study design, two participants were selected through purposive sampling, and data were collected through semi-structured interviews. The results revealed that while students expressed enthusiasm for participating in these events, they faced several challenges, including time constraints, language barriers, and adapting to the expectations of diverse audiences. Confidence levels varied; some students felt reasonably confident, while others demonstrated higher self-assurance due to thorough preparation. The findings emphasize the importance of preparation, language proficiency, and cultural sensitivity when presenting at international academic forums, especially in Islamic forums. The study also highlights the need for academic institutions to provide better support to help students develop these critical skills. Future research could explore a broader range of participants and contexts and the long-term development of public speaking confidence in such settings.
