Abstract

Communication serves as a vital foundation in maintaining marital harmony, especially for couples in Long Distance Marriage (LDM) and those who are not. This study aims to analyze communication quality in both types of couples from the perspective of symbolic interactionism theory. This theory emphasizes that meaning is constructed through interaction, which is crucial for understanding relationship dynamics. The research employs a qualitative approach, conducting in-depth interviews with LDM and non-LDM couples. Findings reveal that LDM couples rely on digital technology to create communication symbols, such as video calls and text messages, as mediums of affection and emotional support. However, physical distance often challenges the full grasp of their interaction's meaning. In contrast, non-LDM couples benefit from direct physical presence, enriching the non-verbal dimension of their communication, yet are not free from potential conflicts due to high interaction intensity. This study concludes that communication quality is influenced not only by interaction intensity but also by the couples' ability to create and interpret relevant symbols within their relational dynamics.

Abstract

Background: This community engagement program addresses the challenge of strengthening family resilience (sakinah families) by focusing on women's empowerment and child protection within the community. The program utilizes an asset-based perspective to build upon existing community strengths rather than focusing solely on deficiencies. Purpose of the Study: The program aims to revitalize the function of sakinah families through the specific objectives of enhancing women's leadership, providing Islamic parenting education, preventing early marriage, and fostering economic empowerment. Methods: The program was implemented using the Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) framework, structured into five key stages: discovery, dream, design, delivery, and destiny. Activities included educational workshops, forum establishment, and productive economic training. Results: Quantitative results showed a significant increase in participants' legal and religious literacy, with understanding of the legal minimum marriage age rising from 36% to 89%. The program successfully established a sustainable women's forum (20 leaders) that coordinates monthly parenting and adolescent counseling sessions. Furthermore, the formation of a women's business group led to an average 15% increase in household income, demonstrating enhanced economic agency. The ABCD approach proved effective in building sustainable community structures for family development.

Abstract

This article analyzes the dilemma of changing roles in a household that is often unequal. Inequality occurs due to the wife's dominant role in meeting the family's needs; the wife bears a double burden compared to the husband. This study uses qualitative research with a literature research system through a formal juridical approach and gender analysis. The subject of this research refers to the articles in the Marriage Act and Compilation of Islamic Law. Researchers chose purposive sampling based on specific criteria and categories that can be described and analyzed. The findings of this study indicate the dilemma of relationships and roles in the household, where the ideal relationship within the family must be a provision for family resilience to realize national resilience. In addition, working women must be able to carry out their rights and obligations in a balanced way, even though information technology and the media are challenges to family life today. The optimization of the marriage guidance program and the reconstruction of Islamic Family Law and the Marriage Law must serve as an affirmation basis for the dynamics of marital relationship patterns. However, society must also understand that the social role of a partner is not absolute. His position can be exchanged as needed for the continuation of the marriage.
