“…Likewise, James Norman Darymple (JND) Anderson admits that inheritance is very important to know as his argument that indeed, there is a famous dictum attributed to the Prophet that a knowledge of the shares allotted to the various heirs under this system constitutes the equivalent of one -half of all human knowledge. This saying has often comforted me greatly, seeing that may at least claim to know more about this half of human knowledge than about the other half (Bahrami-Rad, 2021;Rodliyah et al, 2022).…”

“…In the explanations in the Qur'an and Hadith there are provisions for the division of inheritance in detail and clearly. If there is an order in the Qur'an and al-Hadith with a valid naṣ, then the law of carrying it out is obligatory, if there is no naṣ argument that shows its obligation as qaīdah uṣūl fiqh "basically the command indicates (meaning) obligatory" (Bahrami-Rad, 2021).…”

This study aims to determine the cause of the heirs in Mattoanging Village to take their own share and to find out the law of taking their own share of the inheritance and their ownership status according to Islamic law. This research is qualitative research through a normative sociological and theological approach. The data were obtained through observation and interviews with the community in Mattoanging Village, community leaders and religious leaders with broad understanding of Islamic law determined through purposive sampling. The results showed that several heirs in Mattoanging Village took their own share because the inheritance was not distributed after the heir died, no one regulates the distribution of inheritance, there are heirs who use a lot of the heir's property during his life, the person who divides the inheritance is the eldest child and there are heirs who are greedy in taking part. The law takes its own share of the inheritance according to the agreement of each heir. If the other heirs agree, then it is permissible. However, if the other heirs do not agree, then it is prohibited. Likewise with the ownership status which adjusts to the law of taking it, namely if the law is allowed, then the ownership status is not in doubt so that the assets taken may be used and if the law of taking it is unlawful, then the ownership status is also unlawful.

“…11 Similarly, that consanguineous marriage has persisted over centuries, and that it is still widespread in many parts of the world (despite its detrimental effects on the offspring and the related costs for both the offspring and the family) suggest that consanguinity is associated with benefits to families. 12 Thus, the determinants of the formation of consanguineous marriages and endogamy (marriage within the local community) have recently been investigated as a rational decision made by individuals given the economic and institutional constraints (Bahrami-Rad 2019;Mobarak et al 2013;Do, Iyer and Joshi 2013;Dow, Reed and Woodcock 2016). 13…”
