This theme explores the dynamics of family and social law within a pluralistic society from both Islamic and state law perspectives. Various issues such as inheritance, interfaith marriage, polygamy, and the inheritance rights of children born out of incestuous relationships are critically examined through the lens of Islamic jurisprudence, incorporating the objectives of sharia (maqasid al-shariah) and formal legal considerations. By highlighting the role of mujtahids in inheritance disputes and reviewing the views of prominent Muslim scholars, this theme underscores the need for adaptive and context-sensitive interpretations of Islamic law in response to complex social realities.

Furthermore, this theme opens space for discussion on how Islamic values are integrated into modern social practices, including the development of halal tourism within a multicultural society. The interaction between religious norms and state regulations becomes a central point in understanding the opportunities and challenges that arise in diverse cultural and religious settings. Thus, this theme not only presents legal discourse but also reflects on the role of Islamic law in building a just, inclusive, and civilized society.
