Abstract

The pak ponjen’s marriage tradition in Pasuruhan Lor Village, Kudus, is an interesting example of how Islamic law interacts with local traditions. With its strong symbolic and social values, this tradition unites the families of the bride and groom, and strengthens the social bonds of the community. The research aimed to study the meaning, usage, and legal status of the pak ponjen tradition, as well as how this tradition adapts to modern developments and globalization. This study used a qualitative field-based approach and involves seven informants from community leaders and local residents. This study found that parents express gratitude to Allah SWT for their ability to marry off their youngest child. Pak ponjen’s tradition includes sungkeman, ubengan, dulangan, giving bags, and prayers. The fact, this tradition is adapted to Islamic principles, such as the recitation of salawat and prayers, which shows a balance between customs and Islamic law. This tradition falls into the ‘urf sahih in Islamic law because it does not contradict the sharia and is beneficial to the community. Therefore, the tradition of pak ponjen not only serves as a symbol of cultural identity but also as a heritage that must be preserved while adhering to Islamic principles.

Abstract

This research was motivated by the practice of ijbar rights in marriage that occurred in Sambung Village, Gajah District, Demak Regency. Basically, the right of ijbar is seen as a form of protection and love of a guardian towards his daughter. However, in practice, marriage is carried out by a guardian (parent) for their child without considering the child's willingness. The concept of the right to ijbar is considered to be contrary to the principle of justice for a child without obtaining the consent of the person concerned. The first aim of this research is to find out how the right of ijbar is practiced in marriage. Second, to determine the impact of the practice of the right to ijbar. Third, namely to find out how the Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI) reviews the practice of the right to ijbar. This research is research carried out directly in the field (field research with 10 informants in this research, namely 3 husband and wife couples, 3 parents, and 1 religious figure. This research uses a qualitative approach that describes the problems of the practice of ijbar rights that occur in the village Sambung, Gajah District, Demak Regency, by interviewing informants, recording and analyzing data obtained regarding the practice of ijbar rights. The results of this research, firstly, the practice of guardian rights is often based on girls' feelings of unwillingness and on average girls who are forced to marry are still very young. Assumptions that have influenced people's understanding have led to the practice of the right of ijbar in Sambung Village, which assumes that if a woman or girl has reached the legal age for marriage, it is best to get married immediately. Second, the impact of a marriage with the right of ijbar is that the household is not harmonious, parents always interfere in the child's household, and this triggers divorce. If the practice of the right of ijbar meets the provisions of the Compilation of Islamic Law as stated in article 16, then a marriage must be based on the consent of the prospective bride and groom.

Abstract

This article examines the problem of authority in the execution of Religious Court decisions in Indonesia and its impact on the effectiveness of Islamic law. Although Religious Courts are authorized to adjudicate family and sharia economic cases, enforcement still relies on District Courts, creating dissonance between legal norms and practice. Using a juridical-sociological qualitative approach with literature studies and interviews with two judges, one clerk, and two execution applicants, the study identifies three root problems: the absence of direct execution authority, weak cross-agency coordination, and the lack of standard operational procedures. These weaknesses disproportionately affect women and children, leaving many rulings unenforced. The article recommends regulatory reform and institutional strengthening of Religious Courts, drawing comparative insights from Malaysia and Pakistan, where religious courts have clearer enforcement mechanisms.

Abstract

The practice of unregistered marriages in the tradition of kiai marriages in Dusun Pondok Asem, Kertasemaya Subdistrict, Indramayu Regency, is still rampant even though marriage regulations have been strictly regulated through Law Number 1 of 1974 concerning Marriage and the Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI). This phenomenon shows the gap between state law and local traditions that continue to be practiced by the local community. This study aims to describe the legal status of Kiai marriage according to customary law and state law, compare the recognition of both, and show the implications of legal pluralism in marriage practices in Indonesia. This research uses a juridical-empirical approach with a theoretical framework for legal pluralism. Primary data was obtained through interviews with lebe, traditional leaders, village officials, and kiai marriage practitioners, while secondary data was obtained from legislation, KHI, and related academic literature. The analysis was conducted qualitatively using a comparative model between customary and state law. The results of the study show the existence of dualism in recognition. Customary law recognizes Kiai marriages as valid because they fulfill the requirements of Islamic marriage and obtain social legitimacy, so that children born from these marriages receive full recognition. Conversely, state law does not recognize marriages not officially registered at the Office of Religious Affairs, so these marriages do not have strong legal force. The novelty of this research lies in its attempt to reveal the dialectic between social legitimacy as living law and formal legal certainty as the main principle of state law. This dialectic shows the reality of legal pluralism in Indonesia, emphasizing the need for harmonization so that customary law and state law can work more synergistically.  Praktik nikah siri dalam tradisi kawin kiai di Dusun Pondok Asem, Kecamatan Kertasemaya, Kabupaten Indramayu masih marak dilakukan meskipun regulasi perkawinan telah diatur secara tegas melalui Undang-Undang Nomor 1 Tahun 1974 tentang Perkawinan dan Kompilasi Hukum Islam (KHI). Fenomena ini menunjukkan adanya jarak antara ketentuan hukum negara dan tradisi lokal yang tetap dijalankan masyarakat setempat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan status hukum kawin kiai menurut hukum adat dan hukum negara, membandingkan pengakuan keduanya, serta menunjukkan implikasi pluralisme hukum dalam praktik perkawinan di Indonesia. Metode penelitian menggunakan pendekatan yuridis-empiris dengan kerangka teori pluralisme hukum. Data primer diperoleh melalui wawancara dengan lebe, tokoh adat, aparat desa, dan pelaku kawin kiai, sedangkan data sekunder berasal dari peraturan perundang-undangan, KHI, serta literatur akademik terkait. Analisis dilakukan secara kualitatif dengan model komparasi antara hukum adat dan hukum negara. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya dualisme pengakuan. Hukum adat mengakui kawin kiai sebagai sah karena memenuhi rukun nikah Islam dan memperoleh legitimasi sosial, sehingga anak hasil perkawinan mendapatkan pengakuan penuh. Sebaliknya, hukum negara tidak mengakui perkawinan yang tidak tercatat resmi di Kantor Urusan Agama, sehingga perkawinan tersebut tidak memiliki kekuatan hukum yang kuat. Kebaruan penelitian ini terletak pada upaya menyingkap dialektika antara legitimasi sosial sebagai living law dan kepastian hukum formal yang menjadi prinsip utama hukum negara. Dialektika ini memperlihatkan realitas pluralisme hukum di Indonesia, sekaligus menegaskan perlunya harmonisasi agar hukum adat dan hukum negara dapat berjalan lebih sinergis.

Abstract

The “Marriage is Scary” phenomenon currently emerging among Generation Z presents two major issues: fear of making the decision to marry and doubts regarding long-term commitment. The primary causes of this concern include negative personal experiences, social pressure, and uncertainty over economic conditions, which discourage young individuals from entering the stage of marriage. Additionally, low emotional intelligence exacerbates their ability to manage conflicts and stress associated with marital life. The impact of this phenomenon is reflected in the increasing delay of marriage, the weakening of family values, and the risk of psychological issues due to the inability to cope with relationship dynamics. From the perspective of Islamic law, marriage is a sacred contract that is not merely a social agreement but also an obligation that brings blessings and inner peace when carried out with full awareness and responsibility. Islam encourages young people to prepare themselves thoroughly, including enhancing their emotional intelligence, in order to build a harmonious marriage. This research employs a qualitative method, with primary data collected from 20 Generation Z informants who experienced the “marriage is scary” phenomenon and one religious figure. The findings of the study indicate that the majority of 14 informants (70%) perceive marriage as a frightening prospect, mainly due to past trauma, economic uncertainty, career prioritization, and difficulty in trusting a partner. However, a smaller group still views marriage as a long-term commitment, although it is not considered a primary life priority at the present time.

Abstract

The humanitarian crisis affecting the Rohingya ethnic group has driven thousands of asylum seekers to Southeast Asia, including Aceh Province, where the majority of the population is Muslim and Sharia law is applied. This situation raises important issues regarding the protection of human rights for both the Muslim community in Aceh and Rohingya asylum seekers. The purpose of this study is to analyse the Islamic legal perspective on human rights protection in Aceh and to examine the dilemma between security and humanity in the handling of Rohingya refugees. The method used is descriptive qualitative study with a normative-sociological approach through analysis of literature, Aceh sharia regulations, and international and national human rights documents. The results of the study show that Islamic legal principles, such as hifz al-nafs and hifz al-insaniyyah, provide a strong basis for the acceptance and protection of refugees. However, their implementation faces challenges in the form of social resistance, limited facilities, and concerns about local security disturbances. The conclusion that can be drawn is that human rights protection in Aceh can only be effective if there is harmonisation between Sharia values, security policies, and humanitarian commitments through the synergy of the government, religious scholars, and the community.
