<![CDATA[This research under tittle “The Existence of Women to Realize the Sakinah Family in Classical and Contemporary Scholars Thought” is a type of library research using a qualitative approach and a comparative descriptive method. The data sources of this research consist of primary sources from the books of Uqudullijain, Fathul Mu'in, Fathul Qorib, Al-Majmu' Syarah Al-Muhadzdzab, Bidayatul Mujtahid, Qur'an According to Women, The Rights of Women in Islam, Major Themes of Qur'an, Woman and Islam, and Feminism and Women Empowerment in Islamic Scales. The secondary sources in this study are other books that examine women and the sakinah family. The results of this study explain that women in their lives have roles, among others, as a wife, mother, and career woman. In classical Islamic thought, a woman is like a queen in her husband's house. The husband is obliged to meet all the needs of his wife, even in terms of preparing food, washing clothes, and all other aspects of household tasks. Meanwhile, a wife has an obligation to serve her husband's sexual needs, be obedient and obedient to her husband, accompany her husband, and manage all household matters. Women are only described as having a domestic role within the scope of their household. Meanwhile, according to contemporary Islamic thought, men and women have the same values and positions. So it has a logical consequence that women are able to take part in the public sector like a man. Women who only take part in the domestic sector or carry out multiple roles at the same time still have a great opportunity to create a sakinah family. This can be done by straightening the intention and basing everything on Allah SWT; understand your partner well; understand each other's roles and duties; foster affection among family members; maintain communication, open and familiarize deliberation; be fair; and always increase patience and gratitude. [Islam merupakan agama yang memberikan penghormatan yang sangat tinggi kepada wanita. Wanita memiliki peran yang begitu vital dalam keluarga guna mewujudkan keluarga sakinah. Dalam konteks klasik, para ulama madzhab memiliki pandangan tersendiri terkait peran seorang wanita dalam keluarga. Hal ini berbeda dengan pendapat yang dikemukakan oleh para ulama kontemporer. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui peran wanita dalam pemikiran ulama klasik dan kontemporer, serta peran wanita untuk mewujudkan keluarga sakinah. Penelitian ini merupakan jenis riset kepustakaan dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif metode deskriptif komparatif. Hasil penelitian ini menjelaskan bahwa dalam pandangan ulama klasik, wanita bagaikan seorang ratu di rumah suaminya. Suami wajib mencukupi segala macam kebutuhan istrinya, bahkan dalam hal menyiapkan makanan, mencuci pakaian, dan segala aspek tugas rumah tangga yang lainnya. Sedangkan seorang istri memiliki kewajiban untuk melayani kebutuhan seksual suaminya, taat dan patuh pada suaminya, mendampingi suami, serta mengatur segala urusan rumah tangga. Wanita hanya digambarkan memiliki peran domestik dalam lingkup rumah tangganya saja. Sedangkan menurut pandangan ulama kontemporer, laki-laki maupun wanita memiliki nilai dan kedudukan yang sama. Sehingga hal tersebut memiliki konsekuensi logis bahwa wanita pun mampu berkiprah di sektor publik selayaknya seorang laki-laki. Wanita yang hanya berkiprah di sektor domestik ataupun menjalani peran ganda sekaligus tetap memiliki kesempatan yang besar untuk mewujudkan keluarga sakinah.]]]>
