Abstract:
There are various verses from Al-Quran that speak about freedom of beliefs. However, none of them instruct the believers to exercise mandatory death penalty on apostate. There are few Prophetic Traditions that have been used as the basis to form the mandatory death penalty by four major schools of jurisprudence. The need to revisit this issue is supported by a handful of modern Islamic scholars such as Sheikh Dr. Muhammad Sa’id Ramadhan al-Bouthi, Dr. Thoriq Suwaidan, Dr. Adnan Ibrahim among others. This paper does not intend to undermine the previous works of our past great scholars but this came as a form of enriching the intellectual discourse in the sphere of Islamic Law and Studies. The authors affirm that there is no strong argument or evidence to support mandatory death penalty on apostate.

Abstract:
Divorce on grounds of apostasy is a complex research topic within Islamic law. This study explores the legal provisions of apostasy within the context of Islamic marriage law, with a focus on the role of the Religious Courts as dispute resolution institutions. The aim of this research is to investigate whether apostasy can constitute a valid basis for divorce according to the applicable law in the Religious Courts. The research method employed is a normative juridical approach to analyze the legal framework governing divorce cases involving apostasy. The research findings indicate that although apostasy can annul a marriage in religious terms, the Religious Courts do not always grant divorce without evidence of marital discord related to apostasy. This highlights the complexity of applying Islamic law in the context of divorce within the Religious Courts. Analysis of Article 116 (h) of the Compilation of Islamic Law regarding apostasy as a basis for divorce reveals that divorce is determined not only by religious conversion but also by the occurrence of marital discord resulting from apostasy. The implications of this discovery underscore the importance of a comprehensive understanding of Islamic law and contextual considerations in the process of resolving divorce disputes in the Religious Courts.

Abstract:
This study aimed to analyze the rights of apostate wives divorced by their husbands, focusing on the Klaten Religious Court Number 0082/Pdt.G/2022 / PA decision. Klt. This study aims to fill the gap in Marriage Law No. 1 of 1974, revised into law No. 16 of 2019, and the compilation of Islamic law, which needs to provide detailed regulations on the legal consequences of post-divorce due to apostasy (riddah). This research uses normative juridical methodology (literature research) with a comparative approach to analyze the data. The study found that the decision of the Klaten Religious Court registered as 0082 / Pdt.G/2022 / PA. The Atos recognizes apostasy as one of the causes of the dissolution of marriage, as stated in the compilation of Islamic Law Article 114 reasons for the dissolution of marriage letter (h). The court granted the apostate wife the right to iddah and Mut'ah based on the Judge's view that apostasy could be grounds for marriage termination. As a result, the ex-wife has the right to apply for his rights. In conclusion, the decision of the Klaten Religious Court addressed the issue of the rights of apostate wives divorced by their husbands. However, it underscores the need for a more detailed and comprehensive legal framework to guide similar cases and protect the parties' rights. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis hak-hak istri murtad yang diceraikan oleh suaminya, dengan fokus pada keputusan Pengadilan Agama Klaten Nomor 0082/Pdt.G/2022/PA. Klt. Studi ini bertujuan untuk mengisi kesenjangan dalam Undang-Undang Perkawinan No. 1 Tahun 1974, yang direvisi menjadi Undang-Undang No. 16 Tahun 2019, dan Kompilasi Hukum Islam, yang tidak memberikan peraturan yang rinci mengenai konsekuensi hukum pasca perceraian karena apostasi (riddah). Penelitian ini menggunakan metodologi yuridis normatif (penelitian pustaka) dengan pendekatan komparatif untuk menganalisis data. Studi ini menemukan bahwa keputusan Pengadilan Agama Klaten yang terdaftar sebagai 0082/Pdt.G/2022/PA. Klt, mengakui apostasi sebagai salah satu penyebab pembubaran pernikahan, seperti yang dinyatakan dalam Kompilasi Hukum Islam Pasal 114 Alasan Pembubaran Pernikahan huruf (h). Pengadilan memberikan hak iddah dan mut'ah kepada istri murtad, berdasarkan pandangan Hakim bahwa apostasi dapat dianggap sebagai alasan pemutusan pernikahan. Akibatnya, mantan istri berhak untuk mengajukan hak-haknya. Kesimpulannya, keputusan Pengadilan Agama Klaten mengatasi masalah hak-hak istri murtad yang diceraikan oleh suaminya. Namun, hal tersebut menggarisbawahi kebutuhan kerangka hukum yang lebih rinci dan komprehensif untuk membimbing kasus serupa dan melindungi hak-hak para pihak yang terlibat dalam situasi seperti itu secara memadai.

Abstract:
The development of Islamic law in Indonesia, particularly concerning apostasy as a cause of divorce, is significant in the evolution of Islamic law. The complexity of Indonesia's social and legal system poses challenges in integrating Islamic values with societal diversity. This research aims to understand the development of Islamic law in Indonesia regarding apostasy issues through the analysis of maqasid sharia. Using a descriptive-analytical approach, data from various sources are examined to understand the development of Islamic law in Indonesia, focusing on the implications of maqasid sharia regarding apostasy as a reason for divorce. Findings indicate that progressive Islamic law development in Indonesia emphasizes a balance between religion and individual justice, protecting individual rights in divorce and seeking fair solutions through legal reforms considering the principles of maqasid sharia.

Abstract:
AbstractThe right to freedom of religion is one of the fundamental rights guaranteed in Islam. This is emphasised in verse 256 of Sura al-Baqara: “Let there be no compulsion in religion”. However, the majority of classical Muslim jurists opine that the right to freedom of religion is not applicable to Muslims, that Muslims who intend to leave the Islamic faith or who have apostatised should be condemned to the death penalty. In reality, punishment for apostasy is not prescribed in the Qur'an and had not been practised by the Prophet (S.A.W.). Instead, the Prophet (S.A.W.) had imposed the death penalty upon apostates because their acts were contemptuous of, and hostile towards, Islam. Muslims who merely renounced the Islamic religion were only required to undergo a process of repentance (tawba). The right to freedom of religion is guaranteed in Article 11(1) of the Federal Constitution of Malaysia. However, as Islamic matters belong to the state jurisdictions, most provisions in relation to apostasy are under the exclusive jurisdiction of the Shari'a Courts. Apostates are subject to punishments such as fine, imprisonment and whipping. This article makes an in-depth study of the right to freedom of religion and the issue of apostasy from the Islamic law perspective, and argues that Muslims who intend to leave the Islamic faith are only required to undergo a process of repentance (tawba), and any punishment prescribed for apostasy is contrary to the right to freedom of religion.

Abstract:
The problem of regarding the breakup of marriages that is motivated by the apostasy of one of the couples still occurs. The regulations regarding apostates are not clearly regulated, only in KHI regulation regarding apostates as a reason for the breakdown of marriage is regulated by a condition if there is a lack of harmony in the family due to apostates. So this gives an understanding that when apostasy does not impact anything on domestic life, marriage can still be continued even though between husband and wife already have different beliefs. Legal uncertainty arises when the marriage of two people besides Islam, one of which is to change religion, is different from Muslims in Indonesia who have KHI in their guidelines regarding apostates. This type of research is a normative juridical legal research, namely by literature study, finding legal material which is then collected to get an analysis by interpreting the contents of the legislation into the existing problems. Murtad is something that does not meet the requirements of marriage in Islam, if in domestic life one of the husband or wife of apostate or out of Islam, the requirements of the marriage become damaged or fasakh automatically or null and void Both were punished by adultery. The legal consequences of the apostasy case are regulated in the compilation of Islamic law in the chapter of marriage cancellation, namely Article 75 letter a and in the reasons of divorce Article 116 letter h regarding the apostasy of someone during the marriage period is not mentioned in Law Number 16 of 2019 Amendment to Law Number 1 Year 1974 Regarding apostates only mentioned in Presidential Instruction No. 1 of 1999 Compilation of Islamic Law in Articles 75 and 116 in which the two articles say that Murtad can occur marriage and marriage breakdown

Abstract:
In certain contemporary Muslim majority states apostasy and blasphemy are not merely religious sins; they are acts which potentially have legal, or extra-legal, consequences. Although apostasy has not been criminalised in many such states, extrajudicial killings of apostates are carried out by some extremist groups and individuals. Such groups always justify these murders of fellow Muslims and non-Muslims on the grounds of apostasy and blasphemy. The concept and use of takfir (excommunication) is also a serious issue in Muslim majority states. Groups such as Daesh (also known as Islamic State of Iraq and Syria) rely on takfir to attack fellow Muslims, despite there being no legal basis in Shari’a for the use of takfir or for criminalising apostasy. Although the concept was developed by people, not God, takfir are now being used to bypass rational human judgement. Their use plays a major role in many of the religious issues confronting Muslim majority states, such as the criminalisation of apostasy and blasphemy. This thesis analyses the central issues of apostasy, blasphemy and takfir collectively, as their history and their contemporary use and misuse by extremist groups are inextricably entwined. The key finding is that the right to punish apostasy and blasphemy and to issue declarations of excommunication (takfir), all originally reserved in Islam for God only, have been appropriated by man. Through developments in the understandings of these concepts, all three have come to be seen by some scholars and ordinary believers as a ‘right of man’. This evolution in interpretation and in application is inconsistent with Shari’a law.

And the third issue asks whether apostasy is a prescribed (ḥudūd) crime at all.

Abstract:
Kadivar in his October 2012 interview focuses on two issues: “Insulting the Prophet of Islam” and “Violent Tendencies in Islam”. According to him, when confronted with criticism against their Prophet and the Qur’an, Muslims should show tolerance and pursue those who spew insults and derogatory remarks (which he considers an instance of “hate speech”) by peaceful measures to make their case under the rubric of rights, ethics and protests, while abstaining from all forms of violence and by producing appropriate cultural material to refute the other side’s disdainful material. If there is a law against hate speech, then a person could pursue his or her case in court by fi ling a complaint. If a country lacks such a law, then we should caution its government and point out the necessity of formulating one and then applying it. I invite others to exercise tolerance in all such cases in the sense that instead of engaging in killing and violent demonstrations, Muslims should impose an economic boycott against those countries that do not conduct themselves ethically in such matters.

Abstract:
Western scholars have long assumed that during the sixth/twelfth century “religious” forces hostile to the practice of philosophy in Islam became so powerful that they successfully suppressed and persecuted philosophers, so much so that this discipline waned and eventually disappeared in Islam. This chapter looks at the evidence for suppression and persecution of philosophy from the side of religious and political authorities. It particularly asks whether al-Ghazali’s fatwa on the unbelief and apostasy of philosophers who hold three clearly identified positions was ever applied. The chapter discusses several examples, most importantly the executions of ‘Ayn al-Qudat al-Hamadhani in 525/1131 and Shihab al-Din Yahya al-Suhrawardi around 588/1192. It concludes that al-Ghazali’s fatwa was likely instrumental in the death of ‘Ayn al-Qudat, yet it brought with it so many legal problems that it had next to no effect beyond the generation of al-Ghazali’s immediate students.

Full text
Abstract:
The premise of this paper is that human rights values are a persistent theme of Fethullah Gülen’s thought and tajdid and expressed by the Gülen movement through example. That tajdid is collectively constructed and communicated by allowing for adaptation and indigenisation in flexible response to different socio-cultural con- texts. What is more, Gülen’s views on democracy, pluralism, human rights and free- dom of belief directly promote human rights values and norms. The paper argues that the Muslim world is very important to Gülen’s overall aspiration for an inclusive civilisation and thus the movement is now active in most parts of that world. In time, as in Turkey, Gülen’s ideas will enable and empower the periphery in Muslim socie- ties to influence the centre ground and open the way for wider enjoyment of freedom and human rights. The paper is in three sections. The first looks at the underlying dynamics of Gülen’s influence and the nature of his tajdid, to assess whether his influence is transferable elsewhere. The second appraises the content of Gülen’s tajdid arguing that human rights values are an inherent theme of his discourse on Islam. Here, the paper analy- ses Gülen’s views on Anatolian Muslimness, democracy and politics, human rights and freedom of belief, illustrating Gülen’s incremental ijtihad on temporal punish- ment for apostasy in Islamic law. The third part traces the movement’s activities in the Muslim world, arguing that the movement has now entered a phase of adoles- cence, and asks whether Gulen’s tajdid and discourse, through the practice of the movement, can indeed promote human rights values in this world.
