Harmonization of Minangkabau Customary Inheritance Law With Faraidh
Keywords:
Minangkabau Customary Law, Islamic Inheritance Law, Comparative Analysis, Pusako PropertyAbstract
Purposes— This study aims to examine the relationship between the concept of inheritance in Minangkabau Customary Law and Islamic Inheritance Law (faraidh), identifying areas of convergence and divergence.
Design/methods— This research employs a comparative legal analysis to evaluate the compatibility of Minangkabau customary inheritance practices with the Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI), specifically focusing on the categorization of property and inheritance systems.
Findings— The study shows that between the concept of inheritance of Minangkabau Customary Law and Islamic Inheritance Law (faraidh), there are similarities and differences. The similarity lies in the concept of inheritance of pusako randah property (livelihood property/joint property/gono gini property), namely that pusako randah is included in inheritance according to the Compilation of Islamic Law because it is owned by the heir as Milk al Raqabah. Another similarity lies in inheritance with a collective system; this collective system is also found in the Compilation of Islamic Law, specifically Article 183 and Article 189. The difference lies in the high pusako property, which cannot be classified as inheritance because the high pusako property is not owned by the heir as Milk al-Raqabah. Thus, it can be concluded that the inheritance system in Minangkabau custom does not conflict with Islamic law.
