Abstract

This paper aims to examine the differences in interpretation in determining the ahlul kitab women and examine the facts that occur in society and the law on marrying ahlul kitab women in Indonesia. Interfaith marriages by Muslims become polemics in Indonesia due to the strengthening of the notion of prohibition of interfaith marriages. However, this assumption is not fully believed considering that the Qur'an regulates the permissibility of marriages by Muslim men with ahlul kitab women. This paper uses a normative juridical research method with an interdisciplinary approach because it uses perspective from other scientific disciplines to support the discussion which still use the law as a standpoint. The result shows, first, there is no agreement between Islamic scholars and jurists in determining the ahlul kitab women. Second, even though the facts in society show that interfaith marriages by Muslim men are common, the law on marrying ahlul kitab women in Indonesia is still prohibited. So, this paper suggest that a decision should be agreed upon by the Islamic scholars and jurists in Indonesia to interpret the ahlul kitab women. Besides, in making provisions related to marrying ahlul kitab, the government should not strictly and decisively prohibit it, it has to comply with the provisions stipulated in Al-Qur'an Surah Al-Maidah verse 5. Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji perbedaan penafsiran dalam menentukan wanita ahlul kitab, dan mengkaji fakta yang terjadi di masyarakat serta hukum menikahii wanita ahlul kitab di Indonesia. Perkawinan beda agama yang melibatkan pihak yang beragama Islam sering menjadi polemik di Indonesia karena menguatnya anggapan larangan terhadap perkawinan beda agama. Namun, anggapan ini nyatanya tidak diyakini sepenuhnya mengingat dalam Al-Qur’an pun diatur mengenai kebolehan perkawinan yang dilangsungkan oleh pria Muslim dengan wanita ahlul kitab. Tulisan ini disusun menggunakan metode penelitian yuridis normatif dengan pendekatan interdisipliner karena menggunakan sudut pandang beberapa cabang ilmu untuk mendukung materi bahasan dengan titik berdiri dari sudut pandang hukum. Dari hasil penelitian, pertama, belum ada kesepakatan dari para ulama dan ahli hukum Islam dalam menentukan golongan wanita mana yang termasuk ahlul kitab. Kedua, meskipun fakta di masyarakat menunjukkan bahwa perkawinan beda agama yang melibatkan pria Muslim banyak terjadi, hukum menikahi wanita ahlul kitab di Indonesia tetap dilarang. Maka, tulisan ini menyarankan harus ada keputusan yang disepakati oleh para ulama dan ahli hukum Islam di Indonesia mengenai tafsiran golongan-golongan wanita ahlul kitab. Selain itu, dalam membuat ketentuan terkait menikahi ahlul kitab, pemerintah sebaiknya tidak melarang secara keras dan tegas melainkan harus menyesuaikan dengan ketentuan yang sudah diatur di Al-Qur’an Surat Al-Maidah ayat 5.

Abstract

The legal vacuum regarding the rules of interfaith marriage was not something new. However, this matter has not been resolved by the Government of Indonesia. After the Marriage Law’s promulgation, the rules of interfaith marriages "disappeared", even though before the promulgation of the Marriage Law, interfaith marriages were regulated clearly and firmly. The phenomenon of interfaith marriage in society which was very difficult to avoid was an essential point of concern for the state to accommodate the rules regarding interfaith marriages. This article discussed the phenomenon of interfaith marriages in Indonesia and the legal rules of interfaith marriages before and after the promulgation of the Marriage Law. This article was the result of normative juridical research using the statutory approach method. The data used was secondary data consisting of primary legal materials, secondary legal materials, and secondary legal materials, which were collected from the literature and then analysed using qualitative analysis methods. Based on the research results, many Indonesian people still carry out interfaith marriages in Indonesia, and the rules of interfaith marriages formulated in the Marriage Law are inadequate. The Indonesian government must accommodate interfaith marriage arrangements in order to provide legal certainty to all people.
