This 2024 Presidential and Vice Presidential Election has its own uniqueness with the emergence of youth issues, which has an impact on Article 169 letter (q) of Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 7 of 2017 concerning General Elections which states that the minimum age is 40 (forty) years, then according to the Constitutional Court Decision Number 90/PUU-XXI/2023, candidates aged less than 40 (forty) years are still permitted, but with special requirements. The dynamics of the minimum limits for Presidential and Vice Presidential candidates have reaped pros and cons in society, this is what motivates the author to look at it from the fiqh siyasah (Islamic government system) approach. Answering this problem, the author formulates the problem, namely how the dynamics of changes in the age limit for President and Vice President candidates, then observes it from the Islamic government system, so to find the answer the author explores it through literature studies or references that discuss the Islamic political system. Findings that the dynamics of the age limit for Presidential and Vice Presidential candidates according to Law Number 7 of 2017 concerning General Elections and Constitutional Court Decision Number 90/PUU-XXI/2023 are at least 26 (twenty six) years old if they have previously served as members of the DPR, DPD and DPRD, but if you have never been elected as a member of the DPR, DPD and DPRD, the minimum age is 40 (forty) years. Meanwhile, in the Islamic government system or Islamic politics, it does not emphasize the requirements for candidates for leadership or President and Vice President, but rather prioritizes the concept of puberty (maturity). It seems that Islam has given the green light to reduce the minimum age limit for candidates for President and Vice President.
