Abstract

Indonesia as the largest Muslim country has variations in the application of inheritance law. However, this diversity in practice has not met the needs of the Muslim community, which tends to be plural, causing high inheritance disputes in the Religious Courts. This paper aims to determine the extent of the controversy over the understanding of Islamic inheritance in Indonesia’s Muslim plurality society. In addition, to measure the reasons for differences in understanding and the implications of differences in understanding of Islamic inheritance in the Indonesian Muslim plurality society. The method used in this study uses a socio-legal study approach by conducting a textual study. The object of study in this research is Islamic inheritance law in a pluralistic Muslim society in Indonesia. The results show that the form of controversy is influenced by the point of view to guide, choose or not to use Islamic inheritance law as the basis for implementation. The reasons for the differences in understanding are education, region and occupation. Meanwhile, the implications of these differences in understanding are doubts about the fairness and benefits of inheritance distribution and the increasing inheritance disputes in Indonesia.
