Abstract

Child marriage remains a significant legal and social issue in Indonesia, particularly in Probolinggo, which has one of the highest child marriage rates in East Java. This phenomenon negatively affects children in terms of education, health, economy, and social well-being. This study analyzes child marriage prevention using the Sadd al-Dzari’ah approach, which aims to prevent actions leading to harm. Employing an empirical juridical method with a qualitative approach, data were gathered through interviews, observations, and legal document analysis. The findings reveal that preventing child marriage is not only permissible but also recommended in Islamic law. The Sadd al-Dzari’ah approach is applied through three key elements: al-ifda (the negative impacts of child marriage), al-wasilah (preventive measures such as education and legal enforcement), and al-mutawasal ilaih (the ultimate goal of protecting children’s rights and well-being based on Maqasid Shariah). The study also highlights challenges in implementation, such as legal loopholes in marriage dispensation, socio-cultural norms, and economic factors that continue to drive child marriages. Strengthening policies, increasing public awareness, and integrating Islamic jurisprudence with national law are essential in effectively reducing child marriage rates.
