In a community in Indonesia, the proposal of establishing a mosque as the activity center has increasingly bloomed. This program restores the exuberance of the mosque through religious practices and places it as the center of community life in social, cultural, and economic aspects. In Palangka Raya, several mosques played an economic role in building bazaars around mosques, including bistros and other small businesses. Given that most of the mosques in the city have obtained large amounts of infaq (almsgiving) and waqf, it is essential to know the extent to which these funds are used in improving the economy of Muslims, especially in Palangka Raya and its surrounding area. The researchers used qualitative research by extracting primary data through interviews, observations, and documentation. This study aimed to evaluate the extent of empowerment of infaq and waqf in the mosques of Palangka Raya City in the maqasid al-shariaperspective. This study argued that the problems in the economic empowerment plan for mosques in Palangka Raya were the lack of human resources (HR), socialization, and funds. Therefore, to minimize the drawbacks, mosque management should continue to improve its quality by socializing mosque programs, providing training for new mosque cadres, and offering professional development for existing human resources on managing zakat, infaq, and sadaqah to maximize the mosque income.
The Government established the National Amil Zakat Agency to manage zakat, but the prismatic society tends to be traditionalists in Kapuas Regency are reluctant to pay zakat through it. The study aims to determine the legal conflict in the zakat management of the prismatic society and to find out the causes of the prismatic society's reluctance to pay zakat through the zakat institution. It is descriptive qualitative with an empirical and legislative approach. The results indicate that the legal conflict between the law of zakat management and the prismatic law that applies in society makes the rules overlap and the zakat management for public interests became less optimal. Meanwhile, the causes of why they are reluctant to pay zakat through BAZNAS are the feeling better to give zakat directly to mustahiq, the lack of public understanding of the zakat management benefits by the institution, and the lack of public trust in the institution. There is a need for adjustments to zakat management regulations and providing comprehension that the society and zakat managers must have the awareness to optimize zakat, which is useful for the development of the country and Muslims.
The urgency of this research arises from the existence of the Ngaju Dayak customary inheritance law which has its own characteristics that are unique to Indonesia, which are different from Islamic law and Western law/positive law. This paper will explain a thought that describes the paradigm of eclecticism of the Dayak Ngaju customary inheritance in regulating the various legal systems used by the Dayak indigenous people. The inheritance eclecticism as a form of accommodation for local customs created legal harmonization. The research approach used was qualitative descriptive and the data collection through interviews and field observations. The eclecticism paradigm of Dayak Ngaju traditional inheritance thinks out three concepts. First, the concept of eclecticism in this text is a concept of a mixture of Dayak Ngaju customs. Second, there is a spirit in Islamic law. Third, the concept of Dayak Ngaju traditional inheritance is an open concept with its plural development with the concept of Islamic law inheritance and positive law.
The study aims to seek customary law in the Dayak Ngaju community to become a solution to settlement of inheritance law. Customary law in the Indonesian legal system is one of the doors to the eclecticism of inheritance law which can be developed as part of the construction of national inheritance law, so that there is a process of harmonization and integration of the inheritance law. This research is emperical juridical research using statutory and legal pluralism approaches. The legal pluralism approach aims to examine the harmonization and integration of various legal systems applied in society. The data analyzed came from scientific documents and in-depth interviews with traditional leaders. The results of the research show that there is competition for norms, encounters or conflicts between various legal systems. Some of the reasons that can be put forward are. First, customary law as a sub-system of the customs of the Dayak Ngaju community is an unwritten law that has long existed and has become part of the legal awareness of the Dayak community itself, both in personal, family, group and community life in every activity. Second, the Dayak Ngaju customary inheritance legal system is not a system that stands alone. If the inheritance law system changes, the change will disrupt social cohesion that has been built for a long time. Efforts towards the unification and condification of inheritance laws that apply nationally should be started, in addition to avoiding family conflicts, providing legal certainty, as well as reforming things that are considered unfair in the inheritance law system. It is also a part of legal pluralism which recognizes and provides space for the development of various laws that live in society.
