Law in its usefulness must then guarantee 4 substances, namely legal certainty, legal expediency, legal justice, and acceptance or recognition of law by citizens of the community governed by law. In the context of this research, it focuses on the unclear position of the inheritance of children outside of marriage due to legal dualism in Indonesia, namely civil law and Islamic law. In the legal facts that occur today, heirs of children outside of marriage are victims of adultery and/or invalid marriages because they do not meet the requirements regulated by Number 1 of 1974 concerning Marriage and the Civil Code. The presence of two laws with different elements and styles between Islamic law and civil law creates a disparity in legal substance, so that at the level of its application the community is given a choice as to which law they will adhere to or use. This study aims to analyse and examine the status of the position of origin of children outside of marriage in the perspective of the Civil Code and Presidential Instruction Number 1 of 1991 concerning the Compilation of Islamic Law which has implications for the distribution of inheritance. The results of the study show that civilly, the legal position of children outside of marriage can be elevated to the status of legitimate children if they receive recognition from their biological father which is then legalised through a court decision, even though civilly children outside of marriage receive a share of inheritance of one third of what they should receive as biological children. Meanwhile, in the provisions of Islamic law, children outside of marriage are adulterous children so that they only have nasab from the mother and her mother's family, so that children outside of marriage then if they get inheritance from their biological father, it is only in the form of a mandatory will and not inheritance.
