Abstract: The field of
succession law in Indonesia up to now prevails law pluralism in
which Islamic succession,
custom succession and western
succession law (Burgerlijk
Wetboek) exist in
society. Among those succession laws, the
custom succession one is the
most dominant law in society. The custom law that has dynamic characteristics also
influences to the
status of widow
to the legacy oh her late
husband, that from time to time it
changes. In parental society, in the early (before RI freedom), a widow was not
a heir, then
the next development,
the widow inherit
the legacy of her late husband although the change has not received well. The
cause of the
change is the
awareness of society
in respecting the status
of the widow
and also because
the most Indonesian society
are Islam that
develops the custom succession law influenced by Islamic
law.
