The position of migrant workers is often seen as a weak party. To some extent, such migrant workers are regarded as similar to slaves. In Indonesia, the government has to protect all citizens, including those abroad who have the status of migrant workers. Migrant Workers’ Protection Law 18/2017 was issued to protect citizens as migrant workers. However, several migrant workers remained legally unprotected abroad. This study used the normative approach that aimed to discuss the protection of Indonesian migrant workers from two-fold, juridical and fiqh siyasah dusturiyah perspectives. While the government protected migrant workers by issuing Law 18/2017, it has more specifically provided directions and objectives to protect migrant workers. This Law ensures human rights for migrant workers despite legal, economic, and social protection for them and their families. Then, the protection of migrant workers from fiqh siyasah dusturiyah should be under the four principles of the workforce in Islam: human independence, human dignity, justice, and the clarity of the contract and wage transaction. KEYWORDS: Indonesian Migrant Workers, Right to Work, Islamic Law.

The right to human dignity respect is the fundamental aspect for any developed country and its legal system, where human dignity usually takes the most central role. However, taking into account certain provisions of the customary law and its origins, certain cultural or religious aspects in forming the legal regulations, specific court decisions and precedents,it is fair to say that the views on dignity within different legal systems will differ in their own way. In the context of the above, the countries of the Islamic world are no exception, as the study of dignity as a legal category through the prism of Muslim legal experience cannot be separated from the religion. That is because Muslims, as followers of Islam, have their own unique perception of the world based primarily on the ancient religious customs, traditions, beliefs, etc. The Islamic concept of human rights, in comparison with, for example, the Romano-Germanic approaches, does not emphasize the natural origin of rights and freedoms, because its foundation is based on other sources and other values, which in essence constitute the content of the Islamic world order. According to some researchers, the Islamic legal concept is based on such principles as: dignity and brotherhood; equality of all members of Islamic society, without division on the basis of race and colour or social status; respect for the honour, reputation and family of each individual; presumption of innocence and personal freedom. By studying dignity as a legal category through the prism of Islamic religious and legal principles, one can’t but highlight the fact that one of the specifics of such a legal family is the realization that rights and freedoms are the gift of Allah, and rights and freedoms are based on a certain sacred meaning that constitute the will of the Almighty. That is the reason why the dignity in the Muslim world perception is considered something divine, as human rights in Islam derive their power not from the will of the state or representatives of the government machine or human nature, but only from the will of the Creator. Given the sacred content of dignity as a multifaceted category in Muslim law, it is strictly forbidden to take action against a person’s authority, honest name, reputation and position in society. Keywords: human dignity, Islamic law, rights and freedoms, Islam.

Fines are sanctions or punishments that are applied in the form of the obligation to pay a sum of money imposed on the denial of a number of agreements previously agreed upon. There is debate over the status of fines in Islamic law. Some argue that fines may not be used, and some argue that they may be used. In the context of fines for delays in payment of taxes, in fiqh law it can be analogous to ta'zir bi al-tamlīk (punishment for ownership). This can be justified if the tax obligations have met the requirements. Whereas according to Islamic teachings, fines can be categorized as acts in order to obey government orders as taught in the hadith, and in order to contribute to the realization of mutual benefit in the life of the state. As for the amount of the fine, the government cannot arbitrarily determine fines that are too large to burden the people. Penalties are applied as a message of reprimand and as a means to cover the lack of the state budget.

This chapter examines the debate concerning a state’s intervention in internal armed conflicts based on invitation, either from the government or from a rebel group fighting against the government. It looks at the issues that arise from intervention by invitation, particularly those relating to the territorial integrity of the state, the status of the actors involved, the nature of the consent, and implications for international law in general and for politics and human rights in particular. The chapter first considers the traditional view of intervention by invitation and the recent challenges to that view. It then discusses the negative equality principle as it applies to intervention in civil wars, as well as the link between intervention by invitation and democratic legitimacy. It also analyses the position of the UN Security Council on intervention by invitation.

Thus far the views of experts of Islamic jurisprudence regarding homosexuality have been very clear in forbidding it. The Alqur'an, Hadith and Ijma' are the bases of the prohibition on marriages of this kind, although jurists differ in their views on the punishment for homosexual behaviour. Malik, ash-Shafi'i and Ahmad equate the punishment for homosexual acts with that for adultery, whereas Abu Hanifah views it as a ta'zir punishment (one determined by the government). Meanwhile, the· view of some that homosexuality is a natural and predetermined phenomenon presents its own challenges: how will Islamic law respond to the claim that homosexuality is a part of our basic human rights that must be protected?

The presence of the digital industry is driving changes in the modes of public transportation from conventional to modern using online applications. The positive impact of the presence of the digital industry especially on line transportation for the community is the existence of new jobs and sources of income. But on the other hand, the presence of on line transportation also presents various problems. This study uses mixed methods with a qualitative main approach and supported by a quantitative approach. The results show that there are problems in social welfare and social protection for two-wheeled online transportation riders which caused by a legal vacuum in the status of the partnership pattern.

Efforts in promoting international legal protection of Indonesian migrant workers can be explained that it has complete regulations. This situation cannot be separated from the facts that show the importance of granting Specific labour rights for migrant workers in the international community’s perspective. The purposes of this article are to encourage all people to consider seriously the applying of international human rights law in order to promote of human rights, especially, for Indonesia migrant workers (TKI) and create better migration management. In legal-formal matter, the applying of legal mechanisms has been recognized as human rights by Indonesia law. One of the best ways is trying to join the outside world in order to attain Economic development for the nation. Exploiting Opportunities of globalized world economy does not mean our sovereignty weakened but rather as an effort to achieve more substantive effort. This can be interpreted as a political commitment from the government - by learning and cooperating with Other States - to be more pragmatic by prioritizing the interests of the people as a form of democracy.

The essence of human rights is to protect and ensure the glory and dignity of people. So it becomes important human rights principles stipulated in the legislation in order to guarantee the state of human rights can be implemented optimally. However, there are some parties who deliberately rammed by the Islamic Human Rights as a product of the Liberals are opposed to the  Sharia. In fact, both Islam and human rights, aimed at ensuring the glory and dignity of man as the principles “maqhasidu al-syari’ah” are the main objectives the implementation of Islamic law. This paper aims to prove that human rights are not contrary to Islam because it has been expressly stipulated that one-on-one purpose in religion is upholding human dignity. This paper uses legal research methods that reveal the fact that Islam protects personal rights of his people so that the necessary regulatory and enforcement of human rights in the Indonesia. Tulisan ini terfokus mengkaji pemikiran Ibnu âsyûr tentang maqâṣid al-syarî’ah. Sebagai pemikir islam kontemporer ibnu âsyûr berupaya merumuskan maqâṣid al-syarî’ah menjadi disiplin ilmu yang mandiri dan pertimbangan utama dalam pegistinbathan hukum islam.Konsep independensi maqâṣid al-syarî’ah sebelumnya memang sudah digagas oleh al-syâthibî, namun Ibnu ‘âsyûr memperkokoh dan mempertegas kembali urgensi maqâṣid al-syarî’ah sebagai suatu disiplin ilmu.Menurutnya, ada empat unsur yang paling mendasar dalam pondasi bangunan maqâṣid al-syarî’ah, yaitu al-fithrah, al-musâwah, al-samâhah dan al-hurriyah.Keempat unsur ini mesti mendapat perhatian dan pertimbangan dalam proses pergumulan teks dan konteks realitas kekinian untuk melahirkan diktum-diktum hukum yang berkemashlahatan. Bagi ibnu ‘âsyûr, secara umum berdasarkan pengkajian atas dalil-dalil al-qur’an dan kasus-kasus parsial menunjukkanbahwa tujuan pensyari’atan hukum islam adalah memelihara sistem/tatanan kehidupan umat manusia dan kelestarian kemashlahatan itu dengan cara menjaga kemashlahatan manusia itu sendiri yang meliputi mashlahah akal, perbuatan dan alam dimana ia hidup. Dengan demikian maka bisa dikatakan kaidah umum dalam syari’at islam adalah untuk mewujudkanmashlahah dan menolak mafsadah.
