PEMAHAMAN MASYARAKAT MUSLIM TERHADAP HUKUM WARIS ISLAM: STUDI FENOMENOLOGIS DI NAPAN
Keywords:
Islamic inheritance law, fara'id, legal pluralism, phenomenological study, religious practiceAbstract
This research examines the understanding of Islamic inheritance law (fara'id) among Muslim communities in Napan using a phenomenological approach. The study explores how religious, cultural, and socio-economic factors influence inheritance practices, revealing tensions between reli-gious principles and customary practices. Through in-depth interviews and participant observation with 25 respondents, the research identifies vary-ing levels of knowledge regarding Islamic inheritance rules, with particular gaps concerning women's shares and implementation procedures. The study reveals that while most community members acknowledge the reli-gious importance of fara'id, practical application is often mediated by local customs, family agreements, and economic considerations. Educational background and religious engagement emerged as significant factors in determining adherence to Islamic inheritance principles. This research contributes to understanding the dynamics between religious law and cul-tural practices in Islamic communities and highlights the need for en-hanced education on Islamic inheritance principles balanced with cultural sensitivity.
