Abstract

The “Marriage Is Scary” trend on social media has become part of how Indonesian youth talk about marriage, at a time when registered marriages fell from 1,705,348 in 2022 to 1,577,255 in 2023. This qualitative case study examines how ten Islamic Family Law students at Institut Agama Islam Darussalam Martapura, four men and six women, perceive the trend and how they relate it to their own readiness for marriage. Informants were selected purposively with variation in gender and trend exposure. Data came from open-ended online questionnaires, semi-structured interviews, and were analyzed thematically. All informants described marriage as worship, yet five of the six women reported some worry about the trend while none of the four men did. Informants used fiqh mainly to define what marriage is, while they described readiness in psychological terms such as emotional maturity, communication, and conflict handling. The trend did not push informants away from marriage. It made them more cautious and more selective. These findings suggest that fiqh munakahat knowledge works as a normative anchor but does not by itself remove worry, so premarital education in Islamic higher education should connect legal knowledge with relational skills.
