Islam holds the balance of justice in the right manner and insists on examining all the conditions and circumstances associated with the offence because Islam is the most natural way of life on account of its suitability, sustainability and flexibility towards human nature. No other legal system in the world has been created for the public interest, the way the Islamic law has been created. This paper focuses upon the flexibility in the implementation of Islamic criminal law (Hudood) in modern society. Islam has made laws that aim to eliminate the causes of crime and not to antagonize the criminal. Sharia imposes preventive punishments which may appear cruel or rough if gazed at without proper consideration. But if contemplated closely, Islam does not execute such punishments unless it discovers that the crime was not justifiable or that the criminal was not acting under any obligation or certain circumstances. The Holy Prophet (SAW) was very careful in the establishment of Hudood because not all crimes were of the same nature and therefore, the same punishments could not be enforced for them. Hence, while applying punishments to crimes; the Holy Prophet (SAW) took into consideration the nationality, personal situations, financial stature and status of the criminal. Thus the Hudood of Allah would be established and the criminal would still have a path to correct him/her and seek forgiveness.

Aceh is a special province in Indonesia and different from other Indonesian provinces especially in the context of Shari'ah related laws. Aceh was granted special autonomy and legal right by the Indonesian central government in 2001 to fully apply Islamic law in the province. Generally, Islamic law which is applicable to Muslims in Indonesia is limited to personal laws just as in Malaysia. However, with the passage of time, Islamic law has expanded to include Islamic banking and finance. Besides that, Islamic law in Aceh is also extended to govern criminal matters which are in line with the motto of Aceh Islamic government to apply Islamic law in total or kaffah. Since 1999, the legal administration of Aceh has begun to gradually put in place the institutional framework to ensure that Islamic law is properly administered and implemented. Equally important, such framework is also aimed to ensure that punishments are fairly executed. This paper attempts to analyse the extent of the applicability of Islamic criminal law in Aceh. It is divided into three major parts. The first part discusses the phases in making Aceh an Islamic province and the roles played by Dinas Syariat Islam Aceh as the policy maker in implementing Islamic law as well as educating and training the public about the religion of Islam. The second part gives an overview on the Islamic criminal law and punishment provided in Qanun Aceh No.6/2014 on Hukum Jinayat (hereinafter Qanun Hukum Jinayat or “QHJ”) as well as the criminal procedural law concerning the methods of proof codified in Qanun Aceh No.7/2013 on Hukum Acara Jinayat (hereinafter “QAJ”). The third part of this paper highlights the challenges in the application and implementation of Islamic criminal law in Aceh, and accordingly provides recommendations for the improvement of the provisions in the QHJ and QAJ. Inputs from the interviews with the drafters of QHJ, namely Prof. Dr. Hamid Sarong and Prof. Dr Al Yasa are utilized in preparing this paper. In addition, inputs gathered from nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), namely Indonesian Syarie Lawyers Association (APSI) and Jaringan Masyarakat Sipil Peduli Syariah (JMSPS) are employed. The findings of this research are important in providing an in-depth understanding on the framework of Islamic criminal law in Aceh as well as in recognizing the flaws in its application or practical aspects of the law in Aceh. Keywords: Islamic law, Aceh, Administration, Punishment. Abstrak Aceh merupakan sebuah Wilayah Istimewa di Indonesia dibandingkan dengan wilayah-wilayah lain dari segi pelaksanaan undang-undang Islam. Aceh diberi status Wilayah Istimewa yang berautonomi oleh Pemerintah Pusat Indonesia pada tahun 2001 untuk melaksanakan undang-undang Islam secara menyeluruh. Pemakaian dan pelaksanaan undang-undang Islam di Aceh tidak terhad pada Undang-undang jenayah tetapi telah meliputi bidang perbankan dan kewangan Islam. Sejak tahun 1999, Pentadbiran Undang-undang Aceh telah merangka undang-undang bagi memastikan undang-undang Islam dapat ditadbir dan dilaksanakan dengan baik. Selain itu juga, undang-undang yang dirangka juga turut bertujuan untuk memastikan hukuman yang berasaskan undang-undang Islam dapat dilaksanakan secara adil. Oleh itu, kajian dalam kertas kerja ini dibuat uuntuk menganalisa sejauh mana undang-undang jenayah Islam dilaksanakan di Aceh. Kertas ini terbahagi kepada tiga bahagan utama, yang mana bahagian pertama membincangkan latas belakang awal kewujudan wilayah Islam Aceh dan peranan yang dimainkan oleh Dinas Syariat Islam Aceh sebagai mpembuat dasar dalam pelaksanaan undang-undang Islam, mendidik serta menyediakan latihan kepada masyarakat umum di Aceh mengenai Islam. Bahagian kedua menyediakan gambaran umum tentang undang-undang jenayah dan hukuman dalam Islam sebagaimana termaktub dalam Qanun Aceh No.6/2014 berkenaan Hukum Jinayat (“Qanun Hukum Jinayat” atau “QHJ”) serta undang-undang prosedur jenayah berkenaan cara pembuktiaan jenayah sebagaimana yag termaktub dalam Qanun Aceh No.7/2013 berkenaan Hukum Acara Jinayat (“QAJ”).

ISLAM is the religion that emphases on the overall human life. It covers all aspects of the physical body, the soul or the spirit, the emotion and the intellect. The Almighty Allah has stated that, True believers those who, if we give them power in the land, establish regular prayer and give zakat, enjoin the right and forbid wrong. That So, we can highlight from these directives of the holy Quran that the religious responsibilities of the Muslim rulers are that they protect the Divine bounds; defend the religion and invite the people to Allah by means of argument and good advice. A ruler is a trustee of the people and vicegerent of Allah. The ruler of a Muslim state has, among other things, to enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrong. What could be right and wrong has been clearly identified in the Quran and sunnah. Some of the acts and behaviors identified which can be promoted more appropriately through positive measures like counselling, motivation, preaching, guidance, creation of appropriate environment, and other similar measures. The most effective of these measures could, however, be what is called exemplifying. It would mean that the ruler should do himself what is right and refrain from doing what is wrong and thereby set an example. Leading by exemplifying has deep psychological and substantial effect on others to follow and emulate. Therefore, the Seerah of the prophet PBUH is the best source for us in this regard. However, it encompasses the efforts made to develop human-being or individual who is pure of heart, pure in mind and pure in deeds where he can function as a member of society, who is civilized and has a high self-esteem. An individual’s awareness towards one’s responsibilities and a high self-esteem can bring for a peaceful and harmonious nation. Thus, the establishment of the Islamic society base on the voice of development together with material values and humanity. Because of which, the role of leaders of Islamic society must be proactive in plotting the path of educational system of the nation based on piety and faith. As for the obligations of ruler in the light of Seerah, I shall refer to the principles which Al-Mawridi r.a has discussed: The preservation of the Faith, true to its origin and in keeping with the consensus of those who participated in the founding of the Ummah, Defense of the Realm. He must carry out the Hadd punishments to ensure the limits prescribed by Allah and so that the rights of general public shall be protected. The other responsibilities are implementation of the principles of Islamic Law, governing disputes, The active propagation of the Faith, The collection of various taxes required by the Shariah, The provision of financial assistance and the assessment of claims against the Treasury, To be solicitous of the public confidence, and to consider fully the council of his advisors in their areas of responsibility, To actively oversee all aspects of government, and to keep himself well and widely informed. This paper thus discusses on the responsibilities of a ruler from the Seerah perspective.

The subject of this talk concerns social medicine in the Scandinavian countries, not socialized medicine. The term socialized medicine has a political bias which is not in conformity with the conception of social medicine in Scandinavia. Every step in the development of the Scandinavian social medicine program has been adopted unanimously by all parties, irrespective of their attitudes toward socialism itself. Political parties have advocated liberalism and opposed socialism with the same ardor with which they have supported the expansion of social medicine. In Scandinavia, therefore, it is not necessary to advise us to "Keep politics out of this picture." Politics have always been omitted, even to the extent that a phrase corresponding to the American "socialized medicine" has never been used in Scandinavia. And if you were to try introducing it, it would not be understood. What is social medicine? It can be defined as an organization of the medical services according to a certain conception of individual or human rights and public obligations in a modern society. In all countries it is accepted that there are some basic needs which everyone has the right to satisfy, irrespective of income. Protection of personal freedom belongs to this group; so does education of the children.

Studi disabilitas masih menjadi tema kecil dalam ilmu pengetahuan Islam. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa ilmu pengetahuan Islam tidak memiliki misi untuk mengatasi permasalahan diskriminasi yang dialami penyandang disabilitas. Hal ini mengakibatkan penyandang disabilitas dikucilkan bahkan dalam komunitas Muslim. Kami mengidentifikasi bahwa kurangnya akses yang dilakukan oleh masyarakat Muslim disebabkan oleh kurangnya ilmu- ilmu keislaman dalam mendorong mereka untuk berperilaku secara inklusif. Artikel ini mencoba menawarkan model sosio-religius dalam mengentaskan diskriminasi disabilitas dengan dua level metodologis. Level pertama adalah mengkritisi epistemologi hukum Islam untuk mendobrak bias normalitas yang berakibat pada tidak diangkatnya masalah disabilitas sebagai tema dalam hukum Islam. Pada level kedua dilanjutkan dengan menginternalisasi filosofi model disabilitas sosial pada ahliyyah dan maqasid, sehingga epistemologi hukum Islam memiliki gagasan inklusi. Hasil penelitian ini adalah bahwa hak akses dijamin oleh ahliyah al-wujub, dan strategi pemenuhan hak akses diatur dalam teori maqasid. Metode ini menghasilkan konsep hukum Islam praktis yang dapat dijadikan dasar untuk membentuk masyarakat Islam yang inklusif.[Disability studies are still a minor theme in the Islamic science. This indicates that Islamic science does not have a mission to alleviate discrimination problems experienced by persons with disabilities. This results in disability being excluded even in Muslims’ community. We identified that lack of access performed by Muslims society is caused by lack of Islamic sciences in encouraging them to conduct inclusively. This article seeks to offer a socio-religious model in alleviating disability discrimination with two methodological levels. The first level is crticizing epistemology of Islamic law to break down the bias of normality which results in the lack of appointment of disability problems as themes in Islamic law. At the second level is continued by internalizing social-disability model philosophy in ahliyyah and maqa>s}id, so that the epistemology of Islamic law has the idea of inclusion. The results of this study are that the right of access is guaranted by ahliyah al-wuju>b, and strategy of fulfilling access right is regulated in light of maqa>s}id theory. This method fruits the concept of practical Islamic law which can be used as a basis for forming an inclusive Islamic society.]

Dakwah adalah kewajiban setiap muslim dan merupakan bentuk aktualisasi kebenaran Islam dalam kehidupan sosial guna menyelamatkan mereka dan lingkungannya dari kerusakan (al-fasad). Setiap zaman pasti memiliki tokohnya sendiri, juga dalam hal dakwah. Salah satu tokoh dakwah yang memiliki kontribusi besar bagi perkembangan dakwah Islam pada era tahun 90an adalah KH. Abdullah Syafi’ie. KH. Abdullah Syafe’i selain konsen dalam bidang pendidikan, beliau juga aktif dalam memperjuangkan terwujudnya syariat Islam di Indonesia, ini dibuktikan dengan bergabungnya di Partai Masyumi, selain itu beliau kemudian aktif juga di MUI. Dalam pandangan KH. Abdullah Syafi’ie dakwah tak hanya berarti tabligh atau pidato alias kegiatan menyampaikan dan mensyiarkan Islam kepada khalayak. Akan tetapi dakwah adalah usaha orang beriman untuk mewujudkan Islam dan masyarakat Islam. Dakwah sebagai usaha pengembangan masyarakat Islam, dan pandangan KH. Abdullah Syafi’ie tak cukup dilakukan hanya dengan pidato (tabligh), tetapi juga dengan pendidikan (al-ta’lim wa al-tarbiyah), dan pengembangan sosial ekonomi. Sebagai da’i KH. Abdullah Syafi’ie berdakwah dengan tiga pilar ini, yaitu ceramah/pidato, pendidikan Islam dan dengan pemberdayaan sosial ekonomi. Da'wah is the duty of every Muslim and is a form of actualization of Islamic truth in social life in order to save them and their environment from damage (al-fasad). Every era must have its own character, also in terms of preaching. One of the da'wah figures who had a major contribution to the development of Islamic da'wah in the 90s was KH. Abdullah Syafi'ie. KH. Abdullah Syafe'i in addition to his concern in the field of education, he was also active in fighting for the realization of Islamic law in Indonesia, this was proven by joining the Masyumi Party, besides that he was later also active in MUI. In KH. Abdullah Syafi'ie da'wah does not only mean tabligh or speech, aka the activity of conveying and broadcasting Islam to the public. However, da'wah is the effort of a believer to realize Islam and Islamic society. Da'wah as an effort to develop Islamic society, and the views of KH. Abdullah Syafi'ie was not only done with speech (tabligh), but also with education (al-ta'lim wa al-tarbiyah), and socio-economic development. As da'i KH. Abdullah Syafi'ie preached with these three pillars, namely lectures / speeches, Islamic education and socio-economic empowerment.

The death penalty is one of old criminal type as the age of human life, and the most controversial crime in of all criminal systems, both in countries that adhere to the Common Law System and in countries that embrace Civil Law, Islamic Law and Socialist Law. There are two main thoughts about the death penalty, namely: first, those who want to keep it based on the force provisions, and second are those who wish to the abolition as a whole. Indonesia includes a country that still maintains capital punishment in a positive legal system. This paper aims to resolve problems of the death penalty concept concerning the controversy purpose of the death penalty and to analyze the regulations, procedures and philosophies regarding the death penalty in Indonesia, Saudi Arabia and China. This paper uses normative juridical research and the methods based on the doctrine and developed by the author. The approach used the legal approach, historical approach and comparative approach, then analyzed by the customary method.The result of the study shows that the death penalty can be seen from the philosophical aspects of Indonesian criminal law, as well as the philosophical aspects of Islamic and Chinese criminal law. So that everything can not be separated from the essential legal objectives, namely for the creation of justice. Death penalty in Islamic law turns out the concept of restorative justice specifically for the crime of deliberate killing (al-qatl al-'amd), which the execution highly depends on the victim’s family. The victim’s family, in this case, has the right to choose whether qisas (death penalty) or their apologize for the murder suspect, and diyat payment. While China in the implementation of death penalty applies the concept of rehabilitation, which in the execution of the death penalty is called a death penalty delay for two years and in its implementation, the defendant is given a job and control them. Whereas in Indonesia, capital punishment is a specific criminal offence and threatened with alternatives and is still a draft Criminal Code.

Definition Of

The Concept of Islamic criminal law incorporates particular principles such as protecting the religion i.e Islam, preserving life and the sanctity of human soul, safeguarding the soundness of mind, preserving the heredity, property and dignity. In case of Qazaf (accusation against one's chastity), the reason behind this ruling is to protect the dignity of human being from wild slander and libel. As we are in the middle of information technology era, a number of people committing crimes have distinctly increased including Qazaf involving people's life, honor, and property. Surprisingly, this kind of crime has been widely spread for no specific purpose. According to Syariah law, any person who accuses other people committing zina or sodomy must provide with four witnesses otherwise he or she shall be inflicted with hadd for committing Qazaf. The issue in this matter is that: is it a requirement for the accuser, in the absence of witnesses, to apply oath to prove his or her accusation and does the aforementioned matter applied to the accused? This article is intended to explain the concept of oath, its legal injunction and its divisions according to Islamic law. Apart from that, it would also clarify particular situations which oath is permitted to be administered as a mean of proof, in the case of Allah's right or human's right. The authors intend to elucidate the definition of Qazaf and its application, offenses under Qazaf, the mode of proof, and other issues pertaining to sodomy. The finding of this study shows that oath could be applied to deny the allegation of committing zina or sodomy if the plaintiff makes a request to the judge ordering the defendant to administer oath in the absence of witnesses. This ruling could be found in Shafi'l school of law. Nevertheless, Imam Malik and Ahmad opined that oath could only be applied when it is related to human's right such as property but not to Allah's right for instance punishment for Qazaf. It is hope that the public would gain clear picture from this writing regarding with the concept of oath and Qazaf under Islamic perspective.  Abstrak Konsep hukum jenayah yang ditetapkan dalam Islam mempunyai beberapa konsep tertentu iaitu menjaga nyawa dan kehormatan jiwa manusia, menjaga kewarasan akal, menjaga agama, menjaga keturunan dan zuriat serta menjaga harta benda. Begitu juga hukuman Qazaf, ia ditetapkan di dalam Islam berdasarkan kepada konsep untuk menjaga kehormatan jiwa manusia dan menjaga maruah seseorang. Pada zaman sains dan teknologi masa kini, kita dapat melihat dan sering mendengar pelbagai jenayah yang dilakukan  oleh  manusia  sama  ada yang melibatkan nyawa, maruah, harta benda dan sebagainya. Jenayah Qazaf merupakan jenayah yang semakin berleluasa pada masa kini yang dilakukan sama ada mempunyai tujuan yang tertentu atau sebaliknya. Mereka yang melakukan qazaf hendaklah mempunyai saksi bagi mensabitkan orang yang didakwa atau dituduh. Namun, apa yang berlaku sekarang ini, kebanyakan mereka yang melakukan jenayah qazaf tidak mempunyai saksi bagi mensabitkan kesalahan orang yang didakwa. Timbul persoalan, adakah orang yang melakukan kesalahan qazaf yang tidak mempunyai saksi perlu bersumpah ataupun orang yang didakwa dikehendaki bersumpah. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui konsep sumpah, pensyariatannya dan pembahagiannya dalam Islam. Di samping itu, artikel ini akan menerangkan situasi- situasi tertentu yang mengharuskan sumpah dipakai sebagai kaedah pembuktian, sama ada yang melibatkan hak Allah ataupun hak manusia. Penulis juga akan menjelaskan pengertian qazaf, jenis-jenis kesalahan qazaf dan pengsabitan kesalahan qazaf serta isu yang melibatkan tuduhan melakukan liwat. Hasil daripada artikel ini penulis mendapati dalam mazhab Shafie sumpah boleh digunakan untuk menafikan tuduhan liwat ataupun zina jika pendakwa memohon daripada hakim supaya yang didakwa bersumpah disebabkan ketiadaan saksi. Walau bagaimanapun Imam Malik dan Ahmad berpendapat sebaliknya iaitu sumpah hanya boleh dilakukan apabila melibatkan hak manusia seperti mal, manakala hak Allah seperti hadd Qazaf tidak boleh dilakukan sumpah. Diharapkan artikel ini dapat memberikan gambaran dan pendedahan sebenar kepada masyarakat tentang konsep sumpah dan jenayah qazaf menurut perspektif Islam.

In this commentary, we critically review the Quebec Court of Appeal’s reference decision to the effect that the Genetic Non-Discrimination Act (GNDA) is unconstitutional. In sum, the court held that the federal government exceeded its criminal law power through the GNDA, as the Act did not have a valid criminal law purpose. The decision was met with opposition, as advocacy groups for Canadians suffering from genetic diseases or genetic predispositions viewed the GNDA as a step in the right direction and were hopeful that it would offer protection from genetic discrimination. In closing, we argue that the consequences of the Court of Appeal’s opinion will be less dire than anticipated by some advocacy groups. In fact, we suggest that this decision brings about a unique opportunity for progress, where stakeholders can engage the public and policymakers in a forward- looking debate on the use of genetic information.

Abstract: The Judge’s ruling in the legal decition of the Lamongan District Court No. 164/Pid.B/2013/PN.LMG on the crime of persecution that causes the death of the victim is regarded true since it has been fulfilled all elements as required by Article 351 Paragraph (3) of Criminal Code as indicted by the public prosecutor. In deciding this case, the judge also considered the testimony of witnesses, the information from the defendant, the facts revealed at the hearing as well as the things that burdensome and relieve the defendant. Therefore, the defendant shall be sentenced for 5 months in prison and does not have to go through due to the imposed conditional sentence. In Islamic criminal law, the case is equated with a semi-deliberate murder and sanctioned by diyât and kafârat in the form of ta’zîr. In this case, the defendant can not be punished because of his self-defense. So that the defendant is free from a criminal liability in Islam.Keywords: Persecution, victim died, Islamic law. Abstrak: Putusan hukum hakim Nomor: 164/Pid.B/2013/PN.LMG tentang tindak pidana penganiayaan yang mengakibatkan korban meninggal dunia berdasarkan telah terpenuhinya semua unsur-unsur dari pasal 351 ayat (3) KUHP seperti yang didakwakan oleh jaksa penuntut umum. Dalam memutuskan perkara ini hakim juga mempertimbangkan keterangan saksi, keterangan terdakwa, fakta-fakta yang terungkap di persidangan, serta hal yang memberatkan dan meringankan terdakwa. Oleh karena itu, terdakwa dipidana dengan 5 bulan penjara dan tidak perlu menjalaninya dikarenakan dikenakan hukuman bersyarat. Dalam fiqh jinâyah, perkara ini disamakan dengan pembunuhan semi sengaja. Untuk sanksinya yaitu membayar diyat dan kafârat, sedangkan untuk hukuman penggantinya berupa hukuman ta’zîr. Dalam kasus ini, para terdakwa meskipun telah melakukan perbuatan tersebut, namun tidak bisa dikenakan hukuman tersebut, karena adanya unsur pembelaan diri, sehingga terbebas dari pertanggungjawaban pidana dalam Islam.Kata Kunci: Penganiayaan,  meninggal dunia, Hukum Islam.

This article aims to examine the case of the distribution of clothing and food packages phase II in East Lombok Regency, or better known as Eid packages in terms of the legal considerations of the judge's decision. The point of policy confusion in state administrative law with criminal law or better known as administrative corruption. Government officials who must implement the policy, when the program is running, must deal with the criminalization of the policies that it implements. Based on these issues it is interesting to discuss related to the legal considerations of the judge's decision to release the accused and whether all government officials have the right to discretion in carrying out their positions. The research method used is a descriptive normative method, with a statutory approach, a conceptual approach and a case approach. The results of the discussion revealed that criminal law is used carefully and operationalized truly as the last drug (ultimum remedium) and not necessarily used as the main drug (primum remedium) so that government officials are no longer afraid to carry out work in the public interest and community welfare.
