Al-Qur’an merupakan kitab Allah SWT yang terakhir, yang menjadi mukjizat paling agung yang telah diwahyukan kepada Nabi Muhammad SAW untuk dijadikan panduan kepada manusia. Al-Qur’an bukan sahaja sarat dengan ilmu pengetahuan berkaitan akhirat iaitu hubungan makhluk dengan Khaliqnya, bahkan turut menjelaskan hubungan makhluk sesama makhluk dan juga alam. Pada asasnya, al-Qur’an menyentuh perkara-perkara paling utama iaitu berkaitan akidah, akhlak dan syariat sehinggalah kepada isu-isu lain termasuklah berkaitan dengan kehakiman. Dari segi kandungan, tidak semua perkara dijelaskan secara terperinci di dalam al-Qur’an sepertimana hukum pewarisan harta pusaka, perceraian, zihar, li’an dan seumpamanya. Kenyataan ini tidak bermakna al-Qur’an tidak lengkap, bahkan al-Qur’an telah meletakkan garis panduan bersifat umum untuk disesuaikan dengan keadaan tempat dan zaman yang turut disokong oleh sumber-sumber syarie yang lain. Dokumen merupakan kaedah pembuktian yang terpenting di zaman ini sama ada dalam perundangan Islam atau sivil. Keterangan dokumen dibahagikan kepada dua iaitu dokumen dalam bentuk tradisional dan elektronik. Sekalipun keterangan melalui dokumen yang dinyatakan dalam Al-Qur’an secara zahirnya difokuskan dokumen tradisional, namun tidak terdapat mana-mana nas yang menolak dokumen elektronik. Kertas kerja ini ingin melihat hubungan al-Qur’an dengan dokumen elektronik dalam keterangan. Selain itu, kertas kerja ini akan menilai sejauh manakah dokumen elektronik dapat dijadikan kaedah pembuktian sama berkaitan kesaksian, pengakuan, sumpah dan sebagainya. Jika boleh dijadikan kaedah pembuktian, keterangan dokumen elektronik dapat diguna pakai dalam pelbagai kes, termasuklah kes-kes jenayah, muamalat, munakahat dan sebagainya.

Al-Qur’an merupakan kitab yang diturunkan melalui Nabi Muhmmad SAW bagi menjadi peraturan hidup umat manusia sama ada berkaitan urusan dunia dan akhirat. Al-Qur’an sarat dengan peraturan, pengajaran dan ilmu pengetahuan termasuk berkaitan dengan ilmu sains dan teknologi. Pendek kata, integrasi antara ilmu aqli dan naqli dalam al-Qur’an sangat terserlah. Penemuan ini bukan setakat diagungkan oleh para cendekiawan Islam bah ia diakui sendiri oleh para orientalis barat yang akhirnya membawa kepada keislaman mereka. Pada hakikatnya perundangan Islam tidak mengehadkan kepada kaedah-kaedah pembuktian tertentu sahaja. Sebaliknya, Mahkamah akan menerima mana-mana kaedah yang menepati syarat-syaratnya, asalkan ia dapat meyakinkan mahkamah termasuklah menggunakan kaedah sains dan teknologi moden. Dalam undang-undang keterangan Islam, keterangan dengan sains dan teknologi boleh diletakkan di bawah qarinah dan keterangan pakar. Walaupun begitu, pembuktian melalui sains dan teknologi hanya diletakkan secara umum dalam Akta dan enakmen keterangan di negeri-negeri. Namun ia tidaklah bermakna Mahkamah tidak menerima fakta sains seperti DNA dalam pensabitan nasab. Kertas kerja ini ingin menjawab beberapa persoalan antaranya, sejauh manakah fakta sains dan teknologi dapat dijadikan kaedah pembuktian sepertimana yang termaktub dalam al-Qur’an dan Undang-Undang Keterangan Islam. Selain itu, sejauh manakah amalan Mahkamah Syariah dalam menerima fakta-fakta sains dan teknologi dalam pembuktian.

Dokumen merupakan kaedah pembuktian yang terpenting pada hari ini. Ciri-ciri dokumen yang bersifat kekal dan jelas sekalipun dalam tempoh yang lama menjadikan ia sebagai pilihan untuk dijadikan bukti dalam banyak urusan. Oleh kerana itulah, terdapat pihak memalsukan dokumen dengan tujuan mendapat keuntungan atau menganiayai orang lain. Kertas kerja ini akan menerangkan konsep dokumen dan pemalsuannya, bentuk-bentuk pemalsuan serta hukuman bagi yang disabitkan kesalahan menurut fiqh dan perundangan. Kajian ini dilaksanakan dengan menggunakan pendekatan mixed-method, iaitu campuran pendekatan kuantitatif dan kualitatif. Responden yang terdiri daripada hakim syarie, pegawai Syariah, peguam syarie, pensyarah serta pelajar Syariah dan undang-undang di Negeri Selangor, Negeri Sembilan serta Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur dan Putrajaya. Berdasarkan kaji selidik yang telah dijalankan, bentuk-bentuk penipuan dan pemalsuan yang paling tinggi berlaku dewasa ini ialah sijil sakit, diikuti tandatangan, memasukkan keterangan palsu dan pengubahan fakta. Selain itu, persepsi responden terhadap bentuk-bentuk penipuan dan pemalsuan adalah pada tahap sederhana iaitu min = 2.45 dan sp 1.07. Terdapat pelbagai bentuk pemalsuan dokumen dewasa ini dan ia berubah mengikut kemudahan semasa. Tidak dinafikan pemalsuan dokumen memberi kesan yang besar khususnya kepada pihak yang dizalimi. Oleh itu mengenali bentuk-bentuk dokumen amat penting bagi memudahkan proses pengecaman antara dokumen atau sebaliknya. Pengamal undang-undang syariah perlu didedahkan dengan secara serius mengenai pemalsuan dokumen dan bentuk-bentuknya supaya mereka dapat membuat keputusan tepat dalam penghakiman.

Documentary Evidence Is One Of The Important Methods Of Proof Used In Both Syariah Courts And Civil Courts. The Rapid Development In The Field Of Science And Technology Indirectly Has Brought Major Changes In The Forms Of Documents. This Can Be Seen When The Court Begins To Accept The Forensic Science Method In Documentary Evidence Such As A Medical Report, Chemical Report, Deoxyribonucleic Acid (Dna) Test Report And Others. This Is Because This Kind Of Method Of Proof Can Reinforce The Other Evidence Presented In A Court Proceeding. However, There Is No Specific Discussion Regarding The Admissibility Of Forensic Science Method In Documentary Evidence According To Islamic Syariah Law. The Aim Of This Study Is Therefore To Identify What Is The Islamic Perspectives On Forensic Science Methods And Then To Analyse The Position Of The Forensic Science Method In Documentary Evidence Under The Syariah Court Evidence Law. Finally, This Study Will Explore The Admissibility Of Documentary Evidence Via The Forensic Science Method Under The Malaysian Syariah Court. The Methodology Of This Study Is A Qualitative Approach By Using Document Analysis Of The Provision From The Holy Quran, Hadith, Syariah Court Evidence (Federal Territories) Act 1997 [Act 561], Article Papers, Journals, Reported Cases And Related Document References. At The End Of The Study, The Researchers Discovered Several Provisions From The Syariah Court Evidence (Federal Territories) Act 1997 [Act 561] Concerning The Acceptance Of Forensic Science Method In Documentary Evidence And Its Admissibility In Malaysian Syariah Court.

The world population is ageing. According to data from World Population Prospects: the 2019 Revision, by 2050, one in six people in the world will be over age 65 (16%), up from one in 11 in 2019 (9%). Meanwhile, empty-nest syndrome is a psychiatric condition that affects elders, who encounter feelings of grief, disappointment, anxiety, failure, difficulty in changing their responsibilities, and change in parenting as children leave their parents' home. In 2020, 10.3% estimated population aged 60+ years and above are vulnerable to 'empty-nest' syndrome in Malaysia. This is due to several factors such as living alone or being left by their children. This syndrome causes them to feel sad and become stressful and even worse, suffers from mental or physical health problems. Previous research and statistics proved that 29.9% of older people may have empty nest syndrome as a result of living alone or with just their spouse without the presence of child in 2014. The numbers has increased years after. Therefore, this preliminary analysis will discuss how shariah address empty nest syndrome among senior citizens in Malaysia as majority of Malaysian are Muslims. This qualitative study uses inductive and deductive approaches to obtain general and specific conclusions of primary and secondary data sources. The findings from this analysis show that there are several solutions that have been clearly stated in the Qur'an and al-Sunnah on empty nest syndrome. Indeed, Islam emphasizes a comprehensive solution not only from one side but also from various parties such as family, community or neighborhood, as well as the ruler or government who will ensure that the current proposed solution is more convincing and effective. This study suggests for further research to be conducted to solve empty-nest issue among elderly citizen as Malaysia is moving towards ageing population in 2030.

Digital document is a relatively new form of evidence, particularly for use in the Malaysian Syariah courts. This scenario contrasts with civil courts, which started using digital documents in court proceedings as early as the 1950s. The use of the digital document as evidence is intended to strengthen other methods of proof further. However, the Syariah courts are still less exposed to a new proofing method because there are no specific provisions according to Islamic law to allow it. Not only that, but Syariah law practitioners are also rarely exposed to cases related to the use of digital documents. Therefore, this qualitative study will analyse the admissibility of the digital document as evidence under Islamic law through a systematic analysis. This study uses the PRISMA methodology with the range of data stored on the web at www.scopus.com and http://myjurnal.my, which brings together thousands of scientific writings worldwide. The final screening results found a total of 21 articles that discussed the practice of digital documents as evidence under Islamic law. Furthermore, from the final filter, the researchers found several works of literature that previously discussed the usage of digital documents as evidence in a trial proceeding, which indirectly shows that the Syariah court has begun to accept this type of evidence. It is expected that the results of this study will assist legal practitioners in the Syariah court and become a reference point for researchers, academics and the public in Malaysia.

This research This article is about the elements of the arbitration contract in the Islamic law. They are: offer and acceptance, contractors and issue. The jurisprudents of the Ummah have paid great attention to this issue. The jurisprudents set precepts and laws for arbitration. This topic is chosen due to the importance of arbitration in settling disputes through peaceful means. The topic of the elements of arbitration contract is chosen due to the importance of these elements to obtain a proper judging that is complied with Shari'ah in order that the arbitration does not become a waste of money and time. The objective of this article is to identify the views of the nation's scholars concerning the elements of the arbitration contract and the effect of losing any of these elements. The historical approach was used to collect information from Islamic law, and the analytical approach was used to analyze the data collected. The study concluded that the elements of the arbitration contract in the Hanafi mazhab are only offer and acceptance. The majority of jurists stated that the elements of the arbitration contract are the three elements together, and that the offer and acceptance are bound to two conditions. They are the agreement of offer and acceptance and the communication between the offer and acceptance. The eligibility of the arbitrators is the full capacity to perform. The place of the contract of arbitration must be appropriate for ruling the contract, that is, the possibility of achieving the desired effect of arbitration as the transfer of ownership. The place should also be known to the two parties of the contract with different opinions of scholars in this condition, and be able to deliver it even indirectly and finally be present at the establishment of the contract.
