The Unissula Faculty of Islamic Studies has a very long educational experience in the field of higher education in Indonesia. The faculty which was established in 1962 currently has three programs for the undergraduate level, namely the Ahwal Sakhshiyyah program of the Islamic Law (Sharia) with “B” accreditation, the Islamic Education Program (Tarbiyah) with “A” accreditation, and the Islamic Civilization Study Program, accredited “B”. The Faculty also has a master degree study program, namely Master in Islamic Education which is also accredited “B”.
Al Ahwal al Syakhsiyyah Program (Islamic Law)
The word Ahwal al-Syakhshiyyah comes from Arabic which means the law governing the rules of family life for Indonesian Muslims. In reality, family law contains the rules governing marriage, talak, divorce and ruju’ (NTCR) and the distribution of inheritance. This knowledge of family law must be thoroughly mastered by Al Ahwal al Syakhsiyyah Program Department of Islamic Studies graduates as prospective judges at the Religious Courts (PA).
However, in the latest development, based on Law No. 3/2006 concerning Amendment to Law No. 7/1989 concerning the Religious Courts, the authority of the PA was expanded not only to resolve NTCRW cases, but also to disputes over sharia banking and finance. This means that Al Ahwal al Syakhsiyyah Program graduates are not only required to master family law, but are also required to master Islamic civil law in a broader sense, especially regarding sharia economics.
