Abstract

The Tebing Tinggi Religious Court Decision Number 94/Pdt.G/2019/PA.TTD opens an important discourse space in the study of Islamic family law in Indonesia, especially regarding the integrity of information in marriage contracts. This research uses a qualitative method with an empirical data based normative juridical approach, namely a case study of the court decision file. The analysis technique used is content analysis combined with a review of Islamic law and legislation, especially the Compilation of Islamic Law. The findings explain the existence of a man who remarried by declaring his status as a widower, even though he was still bound in a legal marriage, without permission from his wife or the court. The results show that the Panel of Judges granted the request for annulment of marriage because of the proven falsification of status by the husband, which is contrary to Article 4 paragraph (2) and Article 71 letter (b) KHI. This decision confirms that integrity and honesty in providing personal information are substantial requirements in the validity of marriage. Thus, marriages built on lies and manipulation of legal status cannot be juridically protected and must be annulled for the sake of legal protection of the injured party.
