[2.3] A draw that against the applicant's request, the Government has
provided the description in the trial on November 28, 2012,
as follows:
The purpose of the purpose National development is the creation of a fair society and
prospering based on economic democracy. One form of excavation of the potential
and the form of public contribution in the national economy is
the development of an economic system based on the value of Islam or sharia with
elevates its principles to the The national legal system. The principle of sharia
is based on the values of justice, independence, balance, and
universality, lilalamine rahmas. Such values are applied in
banking arrangements based on the principle of sharia called
sharia banking. The principle of sharia banking is a part of the teaching
Islam related to economics;
The principle of one of the principles in the Islamic economy is a ban on riba in various
forms and uses systems, among others, principles For results. With
principles of yield, sharia banks can create a healthy and fair investment climate
since all parties can share both the benefits and potential risks
that arise so it will create a balanced position between the bank and
the nasadome. Meanwhile, the settlement of disputes may arise on
13
sharia banking will be conducted through trial in judicial environment
religion. In addition, it opens the possibility of a dispute settlement through
the mediation, banking mediation, national sharia arbitration agency or the institution
arbitration, or through a court in the general judicial environment along
agreed upon in the acad by the parties and in accordance with the principle of sharia;
the case against the presumption of the applicant stating the provisions of Article 55 of the paragraph (2) and
paragraph (3) the Sharia Banking Act has led to
legal uncertainty as a result of dispute resolution agencies in banking
sharia, The government can provide an explanation as follows.
The activity of sharia banking activities is embodied in acads that
it is made, whether it is in the form of musyarakah, mudarabah, or other forms
other. Actions make such acads included in the muamalah classification.
The basic Kaidah for muamalah perdata is anything except
that is clearly forbidden. Muamalah in conventional law
is known as a civil or private term. In the term it is called, in
essentially all forms of muamalah can be done unless there is a postul
expects it. Thus, in the event the principle is
everything is allowed to the extent not in violation of the sharia provision.
If there is then a dispute over the acad of the sharia bank because
is included in the rule of the sharia. The parties are free, then the parties are exempt
to solve it in a manner that according to the parties along
does not violate the provisions which have been prohibited by sharia;
The provisions of the settlement dispute over the Sharia banking
is a part of the principle of freedom of contract. It is also in line
with Islamic sharia gings namely, supreme of law and equality
before the law. The interpretation of the supreme of law is one
is the legal certainty, rechtstaat is a legal certainty, then with
given it the legal option for the person entering in the judiciary, will
inflict confuse or legal confusion. Therefore, then the expert
sees Section 2 of the paragraph (2) and the verse (3) is irrational, because it is contradictory
with the verse (1). One is to be held judicial in the judiciary
religi ement
dispute, given the dispute resolution is a problem The next
between the parties that can be completed in accordance with the agreement
has been promised the parties in the accession or the agreement. This is in line
with the principles of civil law concerning the freedom of contract concluded
in the provisions of Section 1338 paragraph (1) of the Code of Laws (1) of the Code of Laws (1) of the Code of Laws (1) of the applicable Code of Laws (1) of the Agreement, Act for
17
they are making it. In the law, sharia is known as the "muamalah," the presence of asas al-sufiah, al-muamalah, al-ibahah. That the base
the law in the field of muamalah or the relationship between individual persons is
mubah or may. Nevertheless, an alternative to the dispute settlement that
is promised in that acad should not be contrary to the principle
sharia;
The view that although it opens the possibility of alternative dispute resolution other than
through a court institution in the religious judicial environment, but use
settlement of the promised dispute in the accession between the parties, in
this paragraph provision (2) Section 5 of the Sharia Banking Act, either
through deliberations, mediation, arbitration, and the courts of the environment
General justice, obligatory based on sharia principles. This
stated clearly in Section 55 of the paragraph (3) of the a quo Act which
states, " The resolution of the dispute as referred to in paragraph (2) is not
may conflict with the principle of sharia, so certainty is the fixed law
can be guaranteed for the parties. ";
The view that it is open is likely the parties to vote for the court below
the general judiciary. The explanation of Article 55 of the paragraph (2) of the a quo among others
considering the bank of sharia on its nature is not necessarily the person
an Islamic person. Under Article 1 of 16, "Nasabah
is a side that uses the services of sharia bank and/or sharia business unit."
No restrictions on religion, trust, for sharia bank nasabah
to use Sharia bank services as long as it is willing
subject to the provisions and principles of sharia in the implementation of the acad
between the nasabah and the sharia bank is included in the event of a dispute. Then,
the dispute settlement process (though not the common judicial line)
must remain appropriate and should not be contrary to the principles of sharia;
the failure of that under applicable laws, settlement
a civil dispute on the side may be submitted to the general judiciary, also open
likely submitted via nonjudicial lines such as arbitration and alternatives
dispute resolution. This is in line with the provisions in the Act
Number 30 of 1999 on Arbitration and Alternative Dispute Dispute;
the statement that under the provisions in Section 49 of the Law Number 3 Year
2006 of the Court religion, religious courts serve and authorities
18
examine, disconnect, and resolve cases in the first level, between
people who are Muslims. Among those in the field of sharia economics,
includes sharia banking. In practice, in the proceedings
the religious courts are not expected to be a choice in case of matter
the perpetual dispute, related to the proceedings in the judicial environment
in general, even the religious courts. respect the decision of the court.
This is illustrated in the provisions of Article 50 of the paragraph (1) Act Number 3
The year of 2006 that reads, paragraph (1), " In the event of a dispute over property rights or
other disputes in the matter as referred to in Article 49, special
regarding the object of the dispute must be severed It was first by the courts
in the general judicial environment. " In the description of this section it is stated
that if a subject submits another property rights dispute
it is not subject to a dispute in a religious court, a dispute in
the religious court is adjourn to waiting for the verdict of the lawsuit filed to
the court in the general judicial environment. The suspension is intended only
done if the objecting party has submitted evidence to the court
religion that it has registered a lawsuit in a state court against the object
a dispute similar to a dispute in court Religion. This suggests
that the existence of a legal option in the dispute resolution process is
made possible and does not reduce legal certainty for the parties;
The view that other than the views are constitutionally, theoretical, and yuridis as
described above in connection with the testing of the provisions of Section 55 Invite-
Invite a quo is seen as needing to see the formulation of the section 55
Act a quo in the bill's discussion of the bill a quo
relayed later;
The DPR ' s caption Thus the House caption Submit for consideration for
The Supreme Court of Justice of the Constitutional Court is to examine, disconnect, and
prosecute the case a quo and may provide a ruling as follows.
1. Received the overall number of Representatives;
2. Declaring Section 55 of the paragraph (2) and paragraph (3) of Act No. 21 of the Year
2008 does not conflict with Article 28D of paragraph (1) Basic Law
1945;
3. Article 55 of the paragraph (2) and paragraph (3) of Act No. 21 of the Year
2008 still has a binding legal force.

[2.5] weighed that against the applicant ' s plea, the Court has
calling the expert DR. Muhammad Syafii Antonio, M. Ec., who had provided the following in the trial on January 29, 2013, as follows:
The idea that in sharia banking knew there were some types of financing,
first, there was called with financing based on selling
buy, i.e. the bank bought first the needs of the applicant, then
after being bought by the bank, then sold back to the applicant with
the margin. For example, Mr. A requires one vehicle, at a price
Rp200.000.000.00 then purchased by a bank from a dealer, for example at a price
Rp200.000.00 then in accordance with the capacity and the ability to pay si
nasabah is sold back to a customer with a price of Rp300.000.00 for
the agreed period, for example 60 months. Then, for 60 months, the nasabah
squeezes and before the lunas, the vehicle is still warranted to the bank;
The financing of the second is called by the financing murabahah and there is also
the financing-financing is almost similar to Bai Al-
Istishna, i.e. order to make it, then resale. Type
The second financing is for the results. For these results there are some types,
but the most commonly referred to with Al-Mudharabah and Al-Musyarakah.

a written conclusion received in the Their respective Court of Justice in
dated February 5, 2013, at which point each party remained on
its stance;
[2.7] weighed that to shorten the description in this ruling,
everything which happened at the trial was quite appointed in the news of the event
the trial, which is an entity that is inseparable with
this verdict;
3. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS
[3.1] Draw that the main legal issue of the applicant's plea is
regarding the constitutionality testing of Article 55 of the paragraph (2) and paragraph (3) Invite-
Invite Number 21 Year 2008 on Sharia Banking (State Sheet

The Constitution as amended by Act Number 8 of the Year
2011 on Changes to the Law Number 24 Year 2003 concerning

called Act MK), Article 29 paragraph (1) letter a Law No. 48 Year 2009
on the Power of Justice (State Sheet of the Republic of Indonesia Year
2009 Number 157, Indonesia Republic of Indonesia Number 5076),
one of the Court's authority is to prosecute at the first level
and the final on which the verdict is final to test the Act
against the 1945 Constitution;
[3.4] weighed that by due to the applicant's request regarding
materiel testing Legislation against the Constitution of 1945 then the Court
authorities prosecute a quo;
Legal standing (legal standing) petitioner
[3.5] weighed that under Article 51 of the paragraph (1) MK Act, which could
acting as the applicant in testing an Act against
The Constitution of 1945 is those who consider the rights and/or authority

its constitutionality is harmed by the expiring Act
testing, i.e.:
a. Citizens of Indonesia, including groups of people who
have shared interests;
b. the unity of the indigenous law society as long as it is alive and in accordance with
the development of the society and the principle of the Republic of the Republic of Indonesia
which is set in Undang-Undang;
c. the public or private legal entity; or
d. country agencies;
[3.6] It is tied that the Court since the Number 006 /PUU-
III/2005, dated 31 May 2005 and Putermination Number 11 /PUU-V/2007, dated
20 September 2007 as well as subsequent rulings have been establish that
rights and/or constitutional rights losses as referred to in
Article 51 of the paragraph (1) MK Act must meet five terms, namely:
a. the rights and/or constitutional authority of the applicant given by

aggrieved by the enactment of the testing Act;
c. the rights and/or constitutional authority should be

which is reasonable is certain to occur;
d. Due (causal verband) relationship between losses referred to
by the enactment of the testing Act;
e. It is possible that with the request of a request, then
the rights and/or rights loss of the constitutional authority as not
will or shall no longer occur;
[3.7] A draw that thus in order to a person or a party
may be accepted as the applicant in case of an Act testing
against the 1945 Constitution, according to the provisions of Article 51 of the paragraph (1) MK Act, person or
the party is to be:
a. explain the qualifiers, namely whether as a person of state

That the applicant feels disadvantaged Its constitutionality to
obtain protection and legal certainty, as well as the same treatment in
the presence of the law as guaranteed in Article 28D paragraph (1) of the 1945 Constitution.

Bank Muamalat Indonesia, Tbk. The Bogor branch that has done a bond
is an acad as Akta Notary No. 34 is dated July 9, 2009 and has been
updated with the financing acad Al-Musyarakah (about the extension
term and change guarantee) No. 14 is dated March 8, 2010, which
then a dispute with Bank Muaddresses, but the settlement process
the dispute does not expressly determine the designated trial for
resolving the dispute such.
That with the absence of freedom to vote, according to the applicant
has led to various interpretations in particular relating to whether
the judiciary selected or promised by each of the parties
as set forth in Article 55 of the paragraph (2) of the Sharia Banking Act
has met the principle of sharia as signaled by Article 55 paragraph (3)
The Sharia Banking Act. This may result in a
case of legal uncertainty, as in Article 55 of the paragraph (1) of the Act
a quo set it firmly that in case of a dispute it must be
executed in court in the religious judicial environment;
[3.9] weighed that under the Applicanther legal efforts. If any
other legal efforts after that, then cancel for the sake of law. The second,
if it is to be chosen is a religious court, then both
set it in accordance with the applicable rules and in order not to happen
dispute, according to the expert, if still open the odds for the go to court
general, will create a conflict between religious justice and the general judiciary.

2. That the court in the religious judicial environment as an offender
the judicial powers have the same rank and principal duties as

MK, i.e. organizing a judicial to uphold the law and justice,
as the constitutional provisions of Article 24 of the paragraph (1) of the 1945 Constitution which
states, "The judiciary is an independent power
for Holding a judiciary to uphold justice and justice ".
The court in the four judicial environments under the Supreme Court
such a power or authority is distinguished by the legal substance

In addition, what is agreed in the acad is special regarding
the non-litigation settlement is referred to in the General Description of the Banking Act
Sharia is determined, " In the meantime, a possible dispute settlement
on sharia banking, will be conducted through court in the environment
The Judicial Justice. In addition, there is also a possibility of a settlement
dispute through deliberation, banking mediation, arbitration institution, or
through the courts in the Public Judicial environment as long as agreed upon in
Acad by the parties " which is then described again in the Description of Article 55
paragraph (2) which states, " In question resolution
done in accordance with the contents of the Acad is an attempt as follows: a. Deliberations;
b. Banking mediation; c. through the National Sharia Arbitration Board (Basyarnas)
50
or any other arbitrage institution; and/or d. through a court in the environment
General Judiciary ".
There are two issues that need to be considered by the Court
in the General Description and Explanation of Article 55 of the paragraph (2) is related to
akad regarding the resolution of the sharia banking dispute. First, the problem of form a non-litigation settlement. Second, the problem of promising the transfer of power of a judiciary has been determined by
legislation.
Terms of non-litigation settlement forms Regarding the issue of non-litigation settlement form, I
argue, that explanation, both General Description and Explanation
Article 55 paragraph (2) as Considered above, it has determined the norm
that limits non-litigation settlement forms in dispute
sharia banking by defining its shape-form limitatively.
The determination is, namely with mention details of the settlement form
into the letter a, the letter b, and the letter c followed by the words "and/or" before
the d can be construed that the non-litigation settlement is limitatively
there are only 4 (fouus justice environment is one
the court as the judicial power offender who is under
the Supreme Court is the same as the court in the general judicial environment
as The constitutional provisions in Article 24 of the paragraph (2) of the Constitution of 1945 which
states, " The justice powers are performed by a Supreme Court
and the judicial body that resides under it in the judicial environment
general, the religious justice environment, the military judicial environment, and
the envir r) settlement forms that can be selected by the parties
which is disputed, either by selecting a single intended form or
slums. Whereas the form of non-litigation settlement does not only include four
form it.
The form of a non-litigation settlement is more than four such forms.
The question is, whether or not the parties can vote.
form another non-litigation settlement in addition to the specified. The answer is, while
the provisions of such limitations mean it cannot be. On the contrary, the fourth place
forms the non-litigation settlement only as part of the form
non-litigation settlement, quod non, then it should be the explanation of Article 55 of the paragraph
(2) the Syariah Banking Act does not And so grazing. Implications of interpretation
thus elicits uncertainty and injustice for the parties
as it has limited the form of non-litigation settlement. Whereas, in
the settlement of the most entitled perdata laws dispute is those
involved in the dispute. Therefore, in examination of the dispute
in court, the judge obliged to try to reconcile first. New
if the parties are unable to reconcile the judge initiating the examination. Related
51
with the right of the parties to complete the non-litigation then
limiting the form of the settlement as contained in the General Description
and the Description of Article 55 of the paragraph (2) of the Syariah Banking Act That,
contrary to Section 28D paragraph (1) and Section 28J paragraph (2) of the 1945 Constitution;
The problem promises the transfer of power of a trial that has been determined by the law
Article 55 paragraph (2) of the Banking Act Sharia declares, " In terms of the
the party has promised a dispute resolution other than as intended
in paragraph (1), dispute resolution is done in accordance with the contents of the akad". Article 55
paragraph (1) of the Sharia Banking Act states, "Settlement of Banking dispute
Sharia is carried out by the courts in the Religious Justice Environment. Article 55
paragraph (1) and paragraph (2) of the Sharia Banking Act contain the norm that
a court in the religious judicial environment is in power or authorities
examine and prosecute sharia banking disputes. This is in line with
the provisions of religious judicial power in the Religious Judicial Act.
However, by the cause in the most entitled civil law disputes
accompliting is the parties then in Implementing such rights
parties are entitled to a non-litigation settlement.
Therefore set to be non-litigically intended
included in the acad. To this extent the provisions of paragraph (2)
are not a constitutional issue. The constitutional issue
occurs when the General Explanation and explanation of Article 55 of the paragraph (2), which in addition to
limit the forms of non-litigation settlement to be selected
as considered above, have also been forming a new norm that
contrary to the articles and verses described, namely that the parties
granted the right through the acad it made to divert court power
in the religious justice environment into power the court in
the general judicial environment. The granting of the right to create an acad with content
is not only in conflict with Article 55 of the paragraph (1) of the Sharia Banking Act, but
also contrary to Article 49 of the Religious Judicial Act. Thus,
the application of the constitutionality testing of Article 55 of the paragraph (2) of the Sharia Banking Act
is unwarranted according to the law, whereas the General Explanation and Explanation
Article 55 of the paragraph (2) of the Syariah Banking Act gives rise to problem
constitutional is contrary to Article 28D paragraph (1) and Article 28J paragraph
52
(2) UUD 1945 as considered in the preceding paragraph.
Based on such consideration, although the explanation is not
is being honed in the divinity of the divine, but the Explanation of Article 55 of the paragraph (2)
The Sharia Banking bill serves as a basis for its appeal, but because
the substance of the General Description and the Explanation of Article 55 of the paragraph (2) of the Banking Act
Sharia is the source of the constitutional issue of Article 55 of the Act
Sharia Banking then I think the Court has to give the verdict
against the explanation ref erred to in order to provide a constitutional solution
in the resolution of the sharia banking law dispute;
weighed that Article 55 paragraph (3) of the Sharia Banking Act stated,
"Completion The dispute as referred to in paragraph (2) shall not
contrary to the sharia principle", determining that although the parties
votes in its resolve with a non-litigation settlement, but the settlement
should not be contrary to the principle of sharia. As such,
I have already agreed with what is considered in paragraph
before, so the application of the constitutionality testing of the section a quo is not
reasoned by law. Thus concurring opinion against the verdict
This court.
7. DIFFERENT OPINIONS (DISSENTING OPINION)
Constitution Judge Muhammad Alim
When the Dutch occupiers set foot the imperative on earth
nusantara, indeed the population of the archipelago is mostly adhering to
Islamic religion. History has been a witness that the Islamic kingdoms have been
scattered almost across the archipelago, especially on the coast of the coast has
many crowded booby booby booby booby booby booby booby-nosed-out. The nusantara society mostly
the Islamic religion is according to research, among others, by Salomon Keyzer (1823-
1868) that among the community of nusantara adhering to Islam,
applies to Islamic law. The research is in line with Lodewijk Willem's opinion
Christian van den Berg (1845-1927), who argued that the Muslims
nusantara has performed an Islamic legal reception in its entirety and
as a unit. That is, according to van den Berg, who was accepted by the people
Islamic religion in Indonesia at that time was not just part of the law
53
Islam but the entirety of Islamic law. That is why the theory that
piloted is called the theory receptio in complexu.
In contrast to van den Berg, Christian Snouck Hurgronje (1857-1936)
in his research on Acehnese people and Gayo to conclude that
that applies to Muslims in both regions it is not Islamic law,
but the customary law. Indeed, according to him, customary law has been influenced by
the Islamic law, but the influence of it has only a legal force if true-
it has been accepted by customary law. So the law is in effect, not
Islamic law.
This opinion is then known as the more receptions theory
developed scientifically by two of his students, a fellow Dutch citizen,
that is Cornelis van Vollenhoven and Bertrand Ter Haar.
The reception theory gets the challenge of Indonesian Islamic thinkers,
which according to them, the reception theory was intended by the colonial government
The Netherlands to abolish Islamic law in the Indonesia, because according to
the Netherlands, the Indonesian resistance to Dutch colonial rule many
influenced by Islamic law.
One of Ter Haar's students, who disapprove of his teacher,
that is Hazairin, consider the reception theory to be the theory of the devil, because with the theory
it invites to the faithful Islam Indonesia to disobey God
SWT and His Rasulture.
With Dutch colonial government legal politics eagled
'shutting down' Islamic law in Indonesia, while still 'taming' Muslims
Indonesia For the sake of preservation, because of the leader or the kings
the Muslim in the past. Indonesia, the Dutch had a lot of resistance that
patriotic, then the Dutch colonial government published Staatsblad 1882 Number
152 known as Priesterraad (Religious Court) which
put it to justice. Certain civil matters for Muslims in Java and Madura
with undetermined authority. Because of the unexplained authority
the trial of this religion, then according to Notosusanto, the religious court determined
its own matters which in his view entered the competition, that is
-the related matters. with a portion of the Islamic community's activities
Indonesia, such as marriage, divorce, dowry, the living, legal, legal child, trust, inheritance, grant, sadakah, baitulmal, and waqaf.

In addition to undetermined entrees, religious courts are also
its formation is not uniform. If for Java and Madura were formed
religious courts, such as the above, for South Kalimantan and
East Kalimantan formed the Kadi Kerapatan and the Great Kadi Kerapatan. For
in addition to Java and Madureans and infrastructure of religious courts are relative to the judiciary
the general and judicial system of the country.
Although such an era of colonization is above stride for the
hinder the development of Islamic law in Indonesia has passed, personalia,
The means and infrastructure of religious justice have been adequate, at least already
in balance with the general judiciary, the religious judicial authority is already resolute
set in provisions, but there are still people
certain, least-forming of the Act that intends to castrate
the authority of the religious justice, such as the explanation of Article 55 of the paragraph (2) Invite-
Invite Number 21 of 2008 on Sharia Banking in the letter d
determining, " The dispute resolution is done in accordance
with Akad is as follows: d.via the courts in the environment
General Justice ".
Throughout my knowledge, there has never been an authority
the absolute justice of religion is handed over to the public justice to be in control.
Which is precisely the case, the authority of prosecuting criminal cases that are
general judicial competence, for the region of Aceh Province for the population
Islam is tried by the Court of Shari'ah which is embed by the judiciary
religion.
Connect to that, Description of Article 55 of the paragraph (2) of the Act
No. 21 of 2008 on Sharia Banking in its d-letter
determines, "Through the courts in the Public Judicial environment" must
expressed as opposed to the Constitution of the Republic of the Republic
56
Indonesia Year 1945, Article 28D paragraph (1) states, " Each person
reserves the right to the recognition, guarantee, protection, and legal certainty of fair
as well as the same treatment before the law" and therefore do not have
binding legal power.
As for Explanation of Section 55 of the paragraph (2) letter a, letter b and letter c Invite-
Invite a quo, determining that the settlement
dispute in accordance with the acad is a deliberation effort, banking mediation,
through the Agency National Sharia Arbitration, in my opinion of such things
is an attempt a dispute resolution outside a court that can be
justified under a deliberation principle, on the condition of not breaking
provisions of the Act and in line with the sharia provisions.
