Abstract

According to most scholars of Islamic jurisprudence (jumhūr ʿulamā), marriage due to pregnancy (ngampang) is permissible as long as it is conducted under fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence) rules. Its validity is not contingent upon the situation/locus ‘in front of the state official’. It means that there is no significance in remarrying before the state official if an Islamic marriage has previously been performed beyond the walls of the state building. In reality, however, the community—in this context, the Muslim community of Sintang—often remarries before a marriage registrar to achieve state recognition in the case of marriage due to pregnancy. This article portrays how the Sintang Muslim community legalizes marriage status due to pregnancy. Data were collected through interviews. This article argues that in order to obtain state recognition of their marriage due to pregnancy, the Muslim community of Sintang often performs twofold marriage ceremonies. The first is according to customary standards (in line with the Statute of the Sintang Kingdom) and following Islamic rules. The second is according to national procedure (in front of a state official), which applies the same Islamic terms. It indicates that, in terms of resolving the issue of pregnancy out-of-wedlock, the Sintang Muslim community has to go through two standards that are not substantively contradictory to each other. Both standards actually rest on the same principles in Islamic law.

Abstract

The immigration policy of Malaysia prohibits migrant workers from marrying during their employment contract, whether with fellow migrant workers or Malaysian citizens. However, despite this prohibition, the practice of marriage between Indonesian migrant workers, often referred to as kawin kampung (village marriage), has been prevalent for many years in Sabah, Malaysia. This marriage practice occurs without the involvement of the state and is not officially registered, thus classified as an unofficial or nikah sirri (secret marriage). Nevertheless, such marriages are recognized socially within the community, even though they are not legally acknowledged (illegal but licit). This research aims to explain the structure and agency involved in marriage practice among Indonesian migrant workers. Taking the floor in Sabah, Malaysia, data were gathered through interviews with related parties in the field. This research employs Giddens' theory of structuration. This research argues that the practice of kawin kampung (village marriage) among Indonesian migrant workers (PMI) in Sabah, is a multifaceted issue influenced by a combination of religious, legal, economic, and social factors. Their religious belief constitutes an essential foundation for sustaining life within the oil palm plantations. Although their marriages cannot be categorized as legally valid under the Malaysian state law, they are many times underhand allowed by the company and can gradually and annually be submitted for official validation (isbat nikah) at the Indonesian representative office. Inconsistent law enforcement against undocumented immigrants has enabled their continued entry, thereby perpetuating the practice of unregistered marriages (kawin kampung) among Indonesian migrants.

Abstract

This article describes the implementation of pre-marital courses that still contain several problems. One of them is, Indonesian Republic’s Ministry of Religion Regulation No. DJ.II / 491 of 2009 and Regulation No. DJ.II / 542 of 2013 in order to organize the pre-marital courses, but many related parties cannot implement it. This prompted the author to examine the views of the Head of KUA in the City of Yogyakarta regarding the urgency of pre-marital courses in an effort to form a sakinah family. After interviewing some related sources, the authors concluded: (1) all informants considered pre-marital courses to be very important as an effort to realize a sakinah family; (2) at the technical level, the implementation of pre-marital courses still faces some problems, such as budget issues, so that some KUA cannot held pre-marital courses; and (3) the implementation of pre-marital courses at KUA is based on religious traditions or beliefs rather than legal regulations. [Artikel ini menjelaskan tentang pelaksanaan kursus pra-nikah yang masih mengandung sejumlah masalah. Salah satunya adalah, meskipun Kementerian Agama RI telah mengeluarkan Peraturan No. DJ.II/491 Tahun 2009 dan Peraturan No. DJ.II/542 Tahun 2013 agar kursus pranikah diselenggarakan, namun banyak pihak terkait yang tidak dapat melaksanakannya. Ini mendorong penulis menelaah pandangan pandangan Kepala KUA Kota Yogyakarta tentang kursus pra-nikah dan urgensi dalam upaya membentuk keluarga sakinah. Setelah mewawancarai narasumber-narasumber terkait, penulis berkesimpulan: (1) semua narasumber menganggap kursus pra-nikah sangat penting sebagai upaya mewujudkan keluarga sakinah; (2) pada tataran teknis, pelaksanaan kursus pra-nikah masih terbentur sejumlah masalah, seperti persoalan anggaran, sehingga beberapa KUA tidak bisa menyelenggarakan kursus pra-nikah; dan (3) pelaksanaan kursus pra-nikah di KUA didasarkan pada tradisi atau keyakinan agama daripada peraturan hukumnya.]

Abstract

Conservatism on Islamic Law has been widely discussed by scholars, be it in printing media (such as fiqh works of traditional ulama, and Islamic self-help books) or in online media (such as on social media platforms containing Islamic dakwah). Their studies portray the diffusion of conservative  Islamic thought from one media to another. However, among  existing works, it can be said that there has not been much discussion about how this conservatism is transmitted by a mubalig (Muslim preacher) particularly about Islamic law. Considering the function of a preacher in Indonesia is significant because has long been the main mouthpiece of Islamic teaching, this paper discussed the conservatism of Islamic family law in the Mamah dan Aa Beraksi preaching program. By using qualitative content analysis, this paper argues that the sermons in the Mamah dan Aa Beraksi contain conservative view of  Islamic family law. This conservatism is indicated by the sermons which tends to refer to traditional fiqh with a gender bias characteristic. This conservatism seems latent through the way the lecturers present her fatwa using short textual interpretations that represent traditional thinking more than modernism. [Konservatisme Hukum Islam telah banyak dibicarakan oleh para ulama, baik di media cetak (seperti literatur karya fikih ulama tradisional, dan buku swabantu Islami) maupun di media online (seperti di platform media sosial yang memuat dakwah Islam). Kajian mereka mempotret difusi konservatisme pemikiran Islam dari satu media ke media lainnya. Namun, di antara karya-karya yang ada, dapat dikatakan bahwa belum banyak pembahasan tentang bagaimana konservatisme itu ditransmisikan oleh seorang mubalig khususnya tentang hukum Islam. Mengingat fungsi mubalig di Indonesia cukup signifikan karena telah lama menjadi corong utama ajaran Islam kepada masyarakat, tulisan ini bertujuan untuk membahas konservatisme Hukum Keluarga Islam dalam program Mamah dan Aa Beraksi. Dengan menggunakan analisis isi kualitatif, tulisan ini berpendapat bahwa ceramah dalam program Mamah dan Aa Beraksi mengandung konservatisme Hukum Keluarga Islam. Konservatisme ini terlihat dari materi ceramah yang cenderung mengacu pada fikih tradisional dengan ciri bias gender. Konservatisme ini tampak laten melalui cara penceramah memaparkan argumentasi hukumnya dengan menggunakan interpretasi secara tekstual yang singkat, nan lebih merepresentasikan pemikiran tradisional daripada modernis.]
