This study examines disputes over inherited property (harta bawaan) after divorce in Kabila Bone District, Bone Bolango Regency, focusing on the dispute resolution process and family considerations in determining property allocation. Using qualitative research methods with a descriptive-analytical approach, the study collected data through in-depth interviews and observations of community leaders, religious figures, village heads, and parties involved in divorce disputes. The results show that inherited property disputes are resolved through two main channels: family deliberation and court litigation, with deliberation being the dominant approach, considered faster, cheaper, and better at maintaining social harmony. The key finding is a strong social consensus in the Kabila Bone community to prioritize the interests and welfare of children as victims of divorce, rather than strict adherence to formal law that treats inherited property as the personal property of each spouse. Family considerations are strongly influenced by Islamic religious values, customary law, and the active role of community leaders and village governments as mediators. This study also identifies legal ambiguity as the root of the problem, particularly the vagueness of Article 37 of Law No. 1/1974, which leaves property division to respective laws and results in multiple interpretations and conflicts between legal systems (religious, customary, and state law). This research's scientific contribution is identifying a responsive law that lives in society, prioritizing substantive justice and child protection over legal formalism. This research recommends strengthening the role of religious courts by incorporating local wisdom values, providing mediation training for customary and religious leaders, and socializing prenuptial agreements to provide legal certainty for the community.
