Abstract

The marriage legalization (itsbat nikah) procedure aims to provide legal protection for parties bound by marriage. Unregistered marriages are not only practiced by poor people in villages or the uneducated, but also by the upper middle class and educated. Ironically, unregistered marriages are used to manipulate existing legal regulation. Most parties who enter unregistered marriages are people who are not legally permitted to marry. Previous research shows that the number of marriage legalization applications in Indonesia continues to increase. Problem has not been resolved even though the regulations regarding marriage registration have been in effect for more than 50 years. The question that arises is whether itsbat nikah procedure is still relevant or or needs improvement. To answer this question, this study compares the Indonesian regulation on legalization with Sharia law in Malaysia. This comparison is made because both countries have regulations on Itsbat Nikah, and in Malaysia, it shows a decrease in cases of unregistered marriages. This study employed an empirical normative research method with the theory of "law as a tool of social engineering." The results indicate that the Indonesian marriage legalization law remains inefficient, and this study found that of efficient regulations in Malaysian law were identified.
