Abstract

Besides to regulate Aqidah and worship, the implementation of Islamic Sharia in Aceh is conducted to regulate e Jinayah or criminal. In 2014, the Qanun/District regulation had been established to regulate the jinayah, namely Qanun Number 6 Year 2014, which was the result of revision of Qanun Jinayat ratified and enforced since July 15, 2003. One of the acts prohibited by the Islamic Sharia contained in the Qanun is adultery. Adultery is an intercourse between a man or more with a woman or more without marital ties with the willingness of both parties. Adultery in the Qanun Jinayah Aceh review is an act that is categorized in 'Uqubat Hudud which is punishable by caning and can be added by 'Uqubat Ta'zir by paying a fine or imprisonment. According to the Islamic Jurisprudence of Legal School, adultery includes 'Uqubat Hudud whose form and magnitude has been firmly defined in the Qur'an and Sunnah. Muhsan adultery (married adultery) is punished by way of stoning (thrown by gravel) to death and as for ghair muhsan (unmarried) adulterer is punished by flogging for a hundred times. The Qanun maker predominantly implements Al-Ijtihad Al-Jama'i in establishing a number of Jinayat Law Articles. The Qanun designers have essentially reinterpreted the Fiqh School and modified it by considering the benefits and interests of the Acehnese people's rights. Qanun Jinayat is a response to the wishes of the people of Aceh for the creation of lasting peace, comprehensive justice and dignity. Therefore, 'Uqubat adultery in Aceh Qanun is different from the viewpoint of the Islamic Jurisprudence of Legal School and the existence of law renewal which is the result of ijtihad from the Maker of Aceh Qanun (Muqannin).
