Abstract

Online gambling has created new forms of rifts in the family structure that occur silently but have a wide impact, especially on children. The fragmentation of relationships in digital households disrupts parenting functions and creates vulnerable psychosocial conditions for children in the domestic environment. Unfortunately, the child protection system in Indonesia lacks a mechanism to respond to indirect threats arising from the dynamics of cyberspace within the family. This study aims to critically examine the limitations of the legal and social systems in protecting children from family disintegration due to online gambling. The study employed a qualitative approach, drawing on library research and the analysis of relevant literature and secondary data. Data were analyzed using a thematic approach to uncover regulatory and social gaps that have not been able to anticipate structural damage in digital families. The results of the study show that existing regulations are still partial, and sectoral, and fail to touch on the complexity of families exposed to destructive digital practices. Child protection has not integrated new risk indicators that arise from uncontrolled online environments. A redesign of the child protection system is needed to be more inclusive, multisectoral, and adaptive to the challenges of digital families so that the best interests of children can be guaranteed comprehensively.

Abstract

Polygamy is a term that contains various meanings, often exciting men's imaginations as an ideal while triggering deep emotions in women. Many women, naturally jealous and reluctant to share their husband's love, oppose polygamy. Despite this, some extraordinary women accept it patiently. On one side, critics link polygamy to gender inequality and discrimination against women, while supporters believe it can reduce infidelity and prostitution. Misconceptions about polygamy, often fueled by anti-Islamic sentiment, have influenced Muslim society, leading some to view it negatively and others to defend it as a part of Islamic perfection. This research then aims to find out how orientalists criticize polygamy law and refute orientalist understanding of polygamy law. This research method will be carried out using a qualitative approach. The data used in this research comes from the results of a literature study of previous literature and research that is still relevant. The results of this research then found that the polygamy law in Islam has a strong historical basis, aiming to protect and regulate the practice of polygamy with the principles of justice and responsibility. Islam sets strict limits and conditions to ensure that polygamy is not abused and that women's rights are protected. Misinterpretations by Orientalists often ignore this context and spread biased views regarding polygamy law. Despite challenges and criticism of the practice of polygamy, education and fair enforcement of the law can provide significant social and individual benefits.
