Abstract

During the Prophet Muhammad’s era, Medina was a plural society inhabited by diverse tribes, ethnicities, religions, and cultures, which carried the potential for social friction due to tribal fanaticism. This pluralism posed a significant challenge for the Prophet’s mission, as diversity could foster both tolerance and conflict. Accordingly, his political measures to harmonize the Medinan community hold critical relevance for managing plural societies in the contemporary era. This study employs a normative-theological library research approach, analyzing primary sources including the Qur’an, ḥadīth, and sīrah, supplemented by classical and contemporary exegeses. Such an approach is relatively rare, as it focuses on fostering unity among citizens, positioning this study strategically in scholarly discourse. The findings indicate that the Prophet managed societal diversity through social reconciliation, reinforcement of collective identity, and peace agreements. An emotional approach facilitated the reconciliation of the Aus and Khazraj tribes by establishing the Ansar identity and integrating them with the Muhajirin within the Muslim community framework. Furthermore, the Prophet implemented non-aggression agreements with Jewish communities and surrounding groups to maintain social stability. His principles of harmony were based on mutual assistance, protection, and empathy, which remain highly relevant for promoting national unity, preventing conflict, and reinforcing humanistic values as the foundation of peace in contemporary societies.

Abstract

Women involved in unregistered polygamous marriages experience compounded vulnerability, as they not only bear the social and psychological burdens of polygamy but also lose access to legal protection due to the prohibition of polygamy isbat under Supreme Court Circular Letter (SEMA) No. 3 of 2018. This restriction results in the systematic neglect of their rights as wives and citizens, including difficulties in obtaining civil registration documents, maintenance and inheritance rights, social recognition, and equitable marital relations. This study employs a normative juridical approach with descriptive analysis, utilizing statutory review and a comparative examination of legal scholars’ arguments both supporting and opposing polygamy isbat for unregistered marriages. The findings reveal a clear division among legal experts: one group advocates permitting polygamy isbat to ensure justice and legal protection for women, while the other rejects it on grounds of legal order, adherence to SEMA, and legal certainty. Based on this analysis, the study proposes two alternative solutions: first, fully opening access to polygamy isbat to promote women’s welfare; and second, adopting a selective judicial approach by granting petitions that provide substantive benefit while issuing niet ontvankelijke verklaard decisions for non-substantive cases. This study underscores the urgent need to balance substantive justice for women with the principle of legal certainty within the Indonesian family law system.
