Inheritance is an important aspect of Islamic family law that regulates the distribution of inheritance to heirs. However, the division of inheritance is often considered controversial because its arrangement can reflect gender aspects that have the potential to generate injustice. The reality shows that there is a complex dynamic between the interpretation of traditional Islamic law and the aspiration of gender justice in the context of inheritance arrangements. This article reveals that diverse interpretations of legal sources play an important role in shaping different views of gender justice in inheritance. Some scholars and academics are trying to formulate a more inclusive interpretation by considering women's rights in inheritance in a more proportional manner. This article concludes by underlining the importance of ongoing discussion and dialogue between scientists, scholars, and the public to reach a deeper understanding of the concept of gender justice in the arrangement of inheritance according to Islamic family law. By understanding the interpretive framework and social context that influences inheritance distribution, it is hoped that Muslim communities can develop a more inclusive and equitable approach to managing inheritance issues that are relevant to gender justice values.
