Abstract

This study thoroughly analyzes the Inheritance law in the Islamic Law Compilation, specifically concentrating on the rule concerning succession heirs. The author conducts a comprehensive legal study to examine the potential opportunities and challenges in changing the provisions for future generations within the Compendium of Islamic Law (KHI). The findings indicate that it is possible to modify the KHI’s standards regarding future generations who attain achievement despite resistance from conservative factions and varying interpretations of Islamic doctrine. The report underscores the necessity for alterations, emphasizing advantages such as enhanced gender equality and women empowerment. Furthermore, it tackles the intricacies of crafting provisions by Islamic principles while staying pertinent. This research illuminates the challenges and opportunities in modifying regulations related to the inheritance of future generations within Muslim communities. By deepening our understanding of the evolution of Islamic law, it offers insights for policymakers and stakeholders to develop strategies that promote more inclusive and fair inheritance legislation.
