Abstract

This research investigates the "Bales nae" tradition within the Sasak community in Lombok, Indonesia. Bales nae is an essential post-wedding ritual where the groom's family visits the bride's family following the merariq ceremonies. This tradition aims to strengthen family bonds, foster mutual respect, and preserve cultural heritage. Using a socio-legal approach and theories from Émile Durkheim and Maqashid Sharia, this qualitative study explores the reasons why the Sasak community maintains this tradition. Data were collected through observation and interviews with 12 key informants, including community members, traditional leaders, and families who have practised Bales nae. The research findings reveal that Bales nae functions to introduce and strengthen relationships among extended families, enhance social cohesion, and preserve cultural heritage. Durkheim's functionalism theory highlights the role of Bales nae in social stability and solidarity, while Maqashid Sharia emphasizes its contribution to preserving religion, life, intellect, lineage, and property. This tradition, with its rich symbolic meaning, underscores the importance of maintaining cultural practices amid modern influences. The study concludes that Bales nae is crucial for reinforcing family and social structures, reflecting the profound significance of traditional rituals within the Sasak community.

Abstract

The prevalence of stunting in several regions of Indonesia, including Tulung District, Klaten, remains above the national target. One of the main obstacles in addressing this issue is the phenomenon of parental rejection of the stunting diagnosis given to their children. This study aimed to analyze in depth the factors underlying this rejection and to examine them through Peter L. Berger and Thomas Luckmann’s social construction theory and the Maqāṣid al-Syari’ah framework. Using a qualitative method with in-depth interviews and participant observation, the study involved 4 inclusion informants (parents of children aged 6–59 months who rejected or ever rejected the stunting diagnosis) and 8 triangulation informants, including village midwives, nutrition officers, posyandu cadres, village officials, and religious leaders. The findings reveal that parents’ rejection of the stunting diagnosis is constructed through a social process and reinterpreted according to everyday experience, cultural norms, and emotional meanings of parental success. In Berger’s framework, this rejection represents a cycle of externalization of personal experience, objectivation through shared community beliefs, and internalization as social reality that resists medical authority. From the Maqāṣid al-Syari’ah perspective, this behavior reflects a contradicsm from the principles of hifz al-nafs (protection of life), hifz al-‘aql (protection of reason), and hifz al-nasl (protection of offspring).

Abstract

Abstract: This research discusses the practice of polyandrous marriage. The research location is in Pager Gunung Hamlet, which is part of Plosorejo Village, Kismantoro District, Wonogiri Regency, highlighting the factors behind the occurrence of polyandry and its legal implications.  Polyandry is a marriage system that is not permitted in Islamic law or positive law in Indonesia. This prohibition has been regulated in the Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI) and is contained in Law Number 1 of 1974 concerning Marriage. This research uses empirical methods with a qualitative approach, where data is obtained through interviews with polyandry practitioners, community figures, as well as analysis of related documents. The research results show that the main factors causing polyandry in this region are economic limitations, lack of understanding of religion, and social conditions that are permissive towards this practice. The case studied showed that a woman maintained relationships with two husbands for financial and health reasons, despite warnings from the local community. The legal implications of this practice include the unclear legal status of children born, the invalidity of marriages according to state law, and the negative impact on gender relations in the household. This research confirms that polyandry is contrary to religious and legal norms in Indonesia and has the potential to cause legal and social uncertainty. Therefore, an active role is needed from the village government and religious leaders in providing understanding to the community regarding marriage laws in order to prevent similar practices from occurring in the future. Keywords: Polyandry, marriage law, gender relations, legal implications, economic factors .
