This study examines the implementation of diversion for juvenile offenders from
the perspective of fiqh jināyah. Diversion is a mechanism for resolving juvenile
criminal cases by transferring the settlement process from the formal criminal justice
system to alternative processes outside the court system. The increasing number of children
involved in criminal offenses necessitates special attention regarding their criminal
responsibility. This research employed a qualitative method with a sociological approach.
Data were collected through interviews with law enforcement officers and social institutions,
as well as through the examination of legal documents and relevant scholarly articles. The
findings indicate that the implementation of diversion is consistent with the concept of
criminal responsibility for children in fiqh jināyah. However, its implementation has not
yet been optimal. This is reflected in the relatively low rate of case resolution through
diversion mechanisms. The limited effectiveness of diversion is influenced by several factors,
including the low level of public understanding, the unequal availability of facilities and
infrastructure such as LPKA, LPKS, and Rehabilitation Centers, as well as the
insufficient understanding of diversion among law enforcement officials. Therefore,
comprehensive evaluation and public education across various sectors are necessary to
enhance understanding and improve the success rate of diversion implementation.
