This research to identify the root causes of people's reluctance to accept the government's declaration to certify land throughout Indonesia. The community's preconception has resulted in many uncertified waqf lands. According to data obtained from the head of the Padang Pariaman Regency's National Land Agency (BPN), only 6% of waqf lands in V Koto Timur, Padang Pariaman Regency, have been certified. Data collected between 2015 and 2020 showed there are approximately 156 prayer rooms (musalla) and 24 mosques that have not been certified. Furthermore, waqf land disputes are common in the region, including the withdrawal of waqf land by heirs and the creation of agricultural land on waqf lands whose management is neglected. Religious factors influence the reluctance to certify waqf land, particularly among the people of Padang Pariaman who still follow the Syattariyah order and have strong faith in the Nagari leaders, particularly the penghulu, who find it difficult to accept their waqf land for certification. The community stereotype holds that waqf lands can be taken over by the government if they are certified. Other factors contributing to the ignorance include the fact that the person who made the waqf or his heir no longer resides in the area
This study aims to examine cases of inheritance from different religions that have been decided by the Religious Courts, High Religious Courts, and the Supreme Court in Indonesia. Inheritance from different religions can be classified into inheritance from Muslim heirs to non-Muslim heirs and inheritance from non-Muslim heirs to Muslim heirs. This study uses a judicial case study approach by examining five decisions, consisting of two religious court decisions, two cassation decisions, and one Supreme Court jurisprudence. This study shows that in cases of inheritance from non-Muslim heirs to Muslim heirs, religious court judges allow Muslim heirs to receive inheritance. This is in line with the opinion of some fiqh scholars who allow such provisions. Meanwhile, in cases of inheritance of Muslim heirs to non-Muslim heirs, judges at the religious court, high court, and the Supreme Court did not decide this case as an inheritance, but as a mandatory wasiat, so that the provisions prohibiting a Muslim from inheriting a non-Muslim were still obeyed by these judges. while the relationship between the heir and the heir is maintained because the heir still receives the heir's inheritance. The formulation of this obligatory will does not conflict with the opinion of the clergy, because there are no religious requirements in wasiat.
