The result of the research shows that inheritance practice done by Islamic
society of Bugis Pagatan tribe in district Kota Pagatan tends to use tribal inheritance
jurisprudence since this practice is done before the heir or the people who give
inheritance dies. There is no clear cut exactly how much the people will get their part
of inheritance. The main inheritor is the biologic child and the widow or widower
will get the legacy of the decedent. The parents of the decedent do not get the wealth
because of the existence of biological child. The head of the district only plays a role
as advisor so that the inheritance process run well , religious figure only have role as
advice giver and mediator if any conflict exist in Bugis Pagatan tribe
