ADULTERY LEGAL REVIEW IN ISLAMIC CRIMINAL LAW AND INDONESIAN CRIMINAL LAW

Abstract

Adultery provisions in legislation in Indonesia have not been very effective in overcoming adultery problems in Indonesia. A shift in moral values in certain communities has also taken place, which can be seen from the behavior of some adulterers who are increasingly brave and do not reflect guilt. In this country of Indonesia, all of its people are the God of the Almighty and the majority are Moslems in which the religion of Islam is a very strict and strict religion prohibiting the act of adultery. Adultery carried out by adults, both like, both voluntarily, knowingly and consciously does not include criminal acts according to Article 284 in the Criminal Code (KUHP). This is very different from the law of adultery in Islamic criminal law. This study discusses the form and criminal sanctions on adultery offenses in Islamic criminal law and positive Indonesian criminal law.
