SISTEM HUKUM PENEGAKAN QANUN JINAYAH DI ACEH

There are, at least,three provincial regulations (qanun) have been enacted and stipulated by Aceh Government dealing with jinayah (Islamic penal rules) during Islamic sharia law implementation in Aceh, i.e. qanun khamar (drunk), qanun maisir (gambling), and qanun khalwat (immoral). From 2004 to 2008, much of the conflict subjects with the qanun jinayah have been determined by judge of Islamic Court (Mahkamah Syar’iyah) Aceh, such as whip or fine.
