The Law

Child custody refers to the upbringing of a child, including the parental responsibility to provide protection, love, care, education, shelter and management. Generally, in determining who will be the legal custodian of a child, a court will first and foremost ensure that the child’s welfare is well-protected.  In Malaysia, child custody is governed by two separate laws, one for non- Muslims and one for Muslims. For non-Muslims, the Law Reform (Marriage and Divorce) Act of 1976 (Act 164) holds sway, while for Muslims it is either the Islamic Family Law Enactments of the respective states or the Islamic Family Law Act of the Federal Territories that are relevant. While the Malaysian civil court operates over the non-Muslim laws, the Syariah court operates over the Muslim ones.

One of the interesting themes of Islamic family law reform is the legal status of polygamy. Almost all Muslim countries make efforts to narrow the space for the practice of polygamy by providing sanctions for the doers, including Tunisia, Pakistan, Egypt, Syria, Malaysia, and Indonesia. This article tries to discuss and analyze this case by making a comparison between the laws of family law in some countries—such as Tunisia, Pakistan, Egypt, Syria, Malaysia, and Indonesia—and the concept of classical fiqh. The study shows that even though each of these countries has the same spirit of renewal, they practice different reform issues related to polygamy. It can be clearly seen in the diversity of forms of sanctions for the doers of polygamy.DOI: 10.15408/ajis.v16i1.2891

Therefore, the concept of renewal of Islamic law requires adaptatif stance with social conditions in which it interacts. In this case, the realization of the principle of al-muhafadzah 'ala al-qadim wa al-Salih al-akhdzu bi al-jadidi al-ashlah (maintaining the old one if it is still good and accept the new or changed if it is considered better), became a necessity. Within the framework of family law reform Indonesia, Islamic law meempunyai a very important role and strategic. Said, because the family law of Islam. in addition to recognized as a source of juridical law, also has universal principles and in accordance with the personality of the Indonesian nation. In fact, sociologically Islamic family law has taken root and become law who live in the midst of the majority of Indonesian people.
