Abstract

Verstek divorce rulings, where one party does not attend court proceedings, often result in inequalities in fulfilling the rights of ex-wives. This study explores the legal obligations of husbands toward their former spouses in verstek divorce cases, analyzing both Islamic legal principles and judicial practices in Indonesian Religious Courts. Using an empirical juridical approach, this research was conducted at the Watampone Religious Court Class IA through legal document analysis and interviews with judges and other key stakeholders. The findings indicate that while Islamic law mandates husbands to provide financial support to their ex-wives, including nafkah iddah (maintenance during the waiting period) and nafkah mut’ah (consolation gifts), these provisions are often not enforced effectively in verstek decisions. The absence of the husband in court proceedings significantly affects the judicial process, limiting the court’s ability to ensure compliance. Additionally, many women lack legal awareness, leading to challenges in claiming their rights. Even when courts rule in favor of ex-wives, enforcing financial obligations remains a major issue due to weak legal execution mechanisms. This study highlights the urgent need for improved legal frameworks and enforcement strategies to protect women’s rights in verstek divorce cases. Strengthening legal aid services, increasing judicial oversight, and enhancing post-divorce monitoring mechanisms are essential steps to ensure the equitable implementation of Islamic family law.

Abstract

Bullying in schools is a persistent social issue that significantly impacts students’ psychological well-being, academic performance, and overall development. This study aims to analyze the dynamics of bullying by exploring its underlying causes, the consequences for both victims and perpetrators, and the most effective prevention strategies in educational settings. Using a literature review approach, this research synthesizes findings from various academic sources to provide a comprehensive understanding of school bullying. The results indicate that bullying arises from multiple interconnected factors, including individual traits, family environment, peer influence, and school policies. Victims often suffer from long-term psychological effects such as anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem, which can lead to decreased academic motivation and social withdrawal. Meanwhile, perpetrators may develop aggressive tendencies that persist into adulthood, increasing the likelihood of engaging in antisocial behavior. Moreover, bullying negatively affects the overall school climate, creating an unsafe learning environment that disrupts students' educational experiences. To address this issue, schools must implement a multifaceted prevention approach, including educational campaigns, strict anti-bullying policies, teacher training programs, and parental involvement. Establishing a supportive and inclusive school culture is essential to reducing bullying incidents and fostering positive student interactions. By incorporating these strategies, schools can create a safer and more conducive learning environment that promotes student well-being and academic success.
