Abstract

Corruption is an extraordinary crime that undermines public trust in the state and the law, so its handling requires synergy between law enforcement officials, institutions, and community participation. Although Indonesia has a legal umbrella in the form of Law Number 31 of 1999 in conjunction with Law Number 20 of 2001, the practice of corruption is still constrained by structural, political, and cultural problems. This study aims to examine the quality of law enforcement of corruption crimes in the Jambi Corruption Court in the current period, the factors that affect it, and provide a review from the perspective of Islamic law. The research uses a qualitative approach combined with normative juridical studies, with data collection through semi-structured interviews, observations, literature studies, and documentation, then tested for validity through triangulation of sources and theories. The findings show that the handling of cases at the Jambi Corruption Court is quite good, supported by the independence of judges, openness of trials, and relatively consistent criminal patterns, although it is still overshadowed by administrative constraints, limitations of ad hoc judges, and disparity in verdicts. Its effectiveness is influenced by the legal substance, institutional structure, infrastructure, and legal culture of the community. From the point of view of Islamic law, the practice of the judiciary is in line with the principles of al-'adl and amanah and rejects ghulul, risywah, and treason, but the recovery of state losses has not fully reflected the maqashid of sharia. Research suggests the addition of ad hoc judges, more detailed sentencing guidelines, and the strengthening of Islamic values in anti-corruption policies.
