DIVORCE RELATED ISSUES: A STUDY OF FINANCIAL SETTLEMENT UNDER MUSLIM FAMILY LAW IN BRUNEI NORYATI HAJI IBRAHIM Thesis submitted for the degree of PhD 2015 Department/Centre of Law SOAS, University of London 1 ABSTRACT Finance is one of the most significant issues associated with divorce. In Brunei, although the Islamic Family Law Act (CAP. 217) was intended to reform and enhance the marriage and divorce relations, yet more pressing issues, as regards finance, have occurred. Therefore, the research is aimed at the following main objectives: to examine the current legal framework that entails financial aspects of divorce, to determine the Islamic principles from which those legislative provisions are derived, to analyze the financial settlements made in the Syariah courts of Brunei, to examine the factors that Syariah courts take into account in determining financial settlements, and to seek any contributing factors that further placed strains upon attaining a fair and equitable settlement in the family court system in Brunei. Settlement of maintenance for divorced wife and children, the issues of consolatory gift and matrimonial property are the primary focus in this study. The research will look into the Syariah Law to explore the very best of interpretation of the Quran and Sunnah as primarily derived by the four prominent scholars, to be considered as a point of reference, relative to Bruneian law and practice. Apart from the legislative provisions, the enforcement of the law of divorce financial-related matters will be critically examined, by doctrinal and empirical approach. Further, a comparison analysis will be attempted, in two different aspects of current divorce law, firstly, to compare the given provisions in the financial settlement statute with those stipulated in the Quran and Sunnah; secondly, to contrast the written law with the law in practice. Ultimately, the research would not only contribute positively to the development of the Islamic knowledge but also would contribute for reconstruction of a modern and wide- ranging Islamic family law when relating to specific divorce issues in Brunei, and that it would further serve as a body of reference to legal professionals, as well as academicians. 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT First of all, I feel grateful to Allah (S.W.T) for being blessed with this rare opportunity and giving me strength and patience to complete this thesis. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the following people, without whose cooperation, the preparation of this thesis would not have been possible: 1.

  • De La Versatilité (5) Avatars Du Luth Gambus À Bornéo
    De la versatilité (5) Avatars du luth Gambus à Bornéo D HEROUVILLE, Pierre Draft 2013-13.0 - Mars 2020 Résumé : le présent article a pour objet l’origine et la diffusion des luths monoxyles en Malaisie et en Indonésie, en se focalisant sur l’histoire des genres musicaux locaux. Mots clés : diaspora hadhrami, qanbus, gambus, gambus Banjar, gambus Brunei, panting, tingkilan, jogget gembira, marwas, mamanda, rantauan, zapin, kutai, bugis CHAPITRE 5 : LE GAMBUS A BORNEO L.F. HILARIAN s’est évertué à dater la diffusion chez les premiers malais du luth iranien Barbat , ou de son avatar supposé yéménite Qanbus vers les débuts de l’islam. En l’absence d’annales explicites sur l’instrument, sa recherche a constamment corrélé historiquement diffusion de l’Islam à introduction de l’instrument. Dans le cas de Bornéo Isl, [RASHID, 2010] cite néanmoins l’instrument dans l’apparat du sultan (Awang) ALAK BELATAR (d.1371 AD?), à une époque avérée de l’islamisation de Brunei par le sultanat de Johore. Or, le qanbus yéménite aurait probablement été (ré)introduit à Lamu, Zanzibar, en Malaisie et aux Comores par une vague d’émigration hadhramie tardive, ce qui n’exclut pas cette présence sporadique antérieure. Nous n’étayons cette hypothèse sur la relative constance organologique et dimensionnelle des instruments à partir du 19ème siècle. L’introduction dans ces contrées de la danse al-zafan et du tambour marwas, tous fréquemment associés au qanbus, indique également qu’il a été introduit comme un genre autant que comme un instrument. Nous inventorions la lutherie et les genres relatifs dans l’île de Bornéo.

  • Islam in South-East Asia
    Chapter 6 Islam in South-east Asia The great period of Islam in South-east Asia belongs to the distant rather than the recent past and came about through commerce rather than military conquest. Long before the advent of Islam, Arab merchants were trading with India for Eastern commodities — Arab sailors were the first to exploit the seasonal monsoon winds of the Indian Ocean — and it was commerce that first brought Arab traders and Islam to South-east Asia. The financial incentive for direct exchanges with the East was immense. The long journey to the market- place of most Oriental commodities was often hazardous and there was a considerable mark-up in prices each time goods exchanged hands. The closer to the source one got, the greater the rewards. 6.1 The Coming of Islam to South-east Asia In as far as South-east Asia is concerned, Arab ships were sailing in Malay and Indonesian waters from the sixth cen- tury onwards. Commerce with China was one reason for their presence there, but perhaps even more of an incentive was the lucrative trade in spices — mainly pepper, cloves and nutmeg — which were obtained from Java, Sumatra and the Moluccas (Maluku) and Banda islands at the eastern end of the archipelago. No doubt the first Arab traders in the region were no more than seasonal visitors, swashbuckling merchant 122 Islam in South-east Asia 123 adventurers who filled their holds with spices and other exotic produce before sailing back with the north-east monsoon to India and the Arabian Peninsula.

  • Hukum Kanun Brunei
    HUKUM KANUN BRUNEI HUBUNGANNYA DENGAN KONSEP MELAYU ISLAM BERAJA Dr Haji Tassim bin Haji Abu Bakar Pengarah Penolong Profesor Kanan Akademi Pengajian Brunei Universiti Brunei Darussalam ABSTRAK Kertas Kerja ini membincangkan tentang Hukum Kanun Brunei yang mencatatkan mengenai undang – undang Kesultanan Brunei tradisional khususnya sebelum pentadbiran British pada tahun 1906 Masihi. Perbincangan ditumpukan kepada hubungan manuskrip ini dengan konsep Melayu Islam Beraja (MIB) kerana ketiga – tiga komponen berkenaan ditemui dalam manuskrip tersebut. Selain itu, pembicaraan juga menyentuh tentang bukti perlaksanaan undang – undang Islam di Brunei pada abad ke-19 sebagaimana termaktub dalam Hukum Kanun Brunei. Hasil analisis ini memperlihatkan bagaimana Hukum Kanun Brunei bukan sahaja undang-undang dalam kertas tetapi juga diamalkan oleh Kesultanan Brunei dalam menjaga keamanan dan kesejahteraan masyarakat Brunei. Dari amalan ini ternyata kanun ini mampu mendokong dalam memperkasakan konsep MIB dalam menjalani kehidupan berbangsa dan bernegara bagi Kesultanan Brunei zaman berzaman. Pengenalan • Sebelum abad ke-20 Masihi kesultanan-kesultanan di Alam Melayu memang mempunyai undang-undang mereka sendiri yang pada umumnya berteraskan undang-undang Islam di samping undang- undang adat. • Undang–undang ini diwujudkan pada dasarnya untuk menegakkan keadilan yang akan memberi impak kepada keamanan dan kesejahteraan negara. • Kemunculan undang-undang ini boleh ditemui pada Kesultanan Melaka, Pahang, Kedah dan Perak yang masing–masing dikenali sebagai Undang–Undang Melaka, Undang–Undang Pahang, Undang–Undang Kedah dan Undang–Undang Sembilan Puluh Sembilan. Pengenalan • Hal yang sama juga berlaku kepada Kesultanan Brunei tradisional sebelum tahun 1906 apabila pentadbiran Residen British diperkenalkan pada tahun ini. Undang-undang itu dikenali sebagai Hukum Kanun Brunei. • Bagaimanapun, pembentangan ini hanya membincangkan mengenai hubungan Hukum Kanun Brunei dengan falsafah Negara Brunei Darussalam yang berkonsepkan Melayu Islam Beraja (MIB).

Through an analysis of Sarawak Malay oral histories, the Negara-Kertagama, Selsilah Raja Raja Sambas and the Selsilah Raja RajaBerunai, the article confirms and extends IbLarsens’s findings, that extensive periods of Sambas’s rule over Sarawak has been overlooked by successive scholars. The article also explores the ways in which Malay oral and traditional histories can be used in western historiographic traditions to illuminate the remoter past. Keywords:Indianisation, Sarawak, Sambas, Brunei, DatuMerpati, Sultan Tengah Prior to the expansion of its meaning in the 19th and early 20th centuries, the term ‘Sarawak’ referred to a negri(country) which encompassed the Sarawak and Lundu River basins, and the coast and adjacent islands between the mouths of the Sarawak and Lundu Rivers, an area known in the scholarly literature as ‘Sarawak Proper’, to distinguish it from the more expansive Sarawak which we know today.1 AlthoughSarawak achieved its present boundaries only with the transfer of Lawas from the British North Borneo Company in January 1905,2 it has a long and contested, if intermittently documented, history. In 2012, Ib Larsen suggested that large parts of present day Sarawak had been ruled for significant periods of time by Sambas rather than by Brunei.
