Abstract

This study examines the perspectives of religious leaders in Martapura Kota District on husbands prioritizing financial support for parents over wives. Employing an empirical legal research design with qualitative descriptive analysis, data were collected through in-depth interviews with six local religious figures and supported by secondary literature. Findings reveal a consensus that spousal maintenance constitutes a fardhu ’ain an individual, unconditional obligation arising directly from the marriage contract and must be prioritized when resources are limited. Financial support to parents, while highly meritorious (ihsan), is conditional, applying only if they lack means of their own. Conflicts arise when emotional and social pressures lead husbands to divert resources to parents at the expense of their wives, risking injustice (dzalim). Religious leaders recommend holistic solutions: family deliberation (musyawarah), transparent financial management, and premarital and postmarital education on the hierarchy of obligations in Islamic law. These measures aim to foster household harmony and prevent rights violations.
