Abstract

This study examines the practice of tajdidun nikah (marriage renewal) following triple talak pronounced outside the Religious Court in Pamenang Barat District, Merangin Regency, Jambi Province. Using a qualitative field research approach, data were collected through semi-structured interviews with four couples who performed tajdidun nikah and local religious figures who facilitated the ceremonies, supplemented by participant observation and documentation. The findings reveal that the practice is primarily triggered by emotional talak uttered during marital conflicts rooted in economic pressure, infidelity, and misunderstanding. The renewal process involves family mediation, a solemn oath of repentance, and the repetition of ijab-qabul before a local religious figure, without involvement of the Office of Religious Affairs (KUA) or the Religious Court. The community perceives this practice as a form of ihtiyath (precaution) to preserve marital sanctity and protect children from neglect. However, the practice contradicts both classical Islamic jurisprudence regarding talak ba'in kubra and Indonesian positive law, which mandates judicial divorce. This study recommends intensified legal socialization by religious authorities to bridge the gap between community practices and formal legal frameworks.
