Abstract

Unregistered (siri) marriage, which refers to a marriage that is religiously valid but not officially registered within the state administration, has become a significant phenomenon in Indonesia. This issue draws attention from both the perspective of Islamic law and the national legal system, due to the ambiguity surrounding the legal status of the wife and children born from a siri marriage, as well as the social impacts it generates. This study aims to analyze the phenomenon of siri marriage within the context of fiqh munakahat, utilizing an approach that integrates the study of Islamic law, positive law, and the social realities of Indonesian society. The research employs a qualitative method with an in-depth literature review of both classical and contemporary fiqh literature, as well as Indonesian legislation related to marriage. The findings indicate that, although siri marriage is religiously valid, it is inconsistent with national regulations that require marriage registration as a condition for legal validity

Abstract

Jama’ and qasar prayers are forms of rukhsah (legal concessions) granted in Islamic law to individuals facing specific circumstances, particularly travelers (musafir). However, with the passage of time, the application of this rukhsah has sparked various controversies, especially in light of the high mobility of modern society, advancements in transportation, and evolving concepts of “travel” (safar). This article aims to re-examine the fiqh-based concept of jama’ and qasar prayers in a contemporary context by exploring differences between classical scholars’ interpretations and modern scholars’ responses to new realities. The study employs a qualitative-descriptive approach using library research methods, analyzing classical fiqh sources (from the four major schools) as well as contemporary literature. The findings suggest that while the foundational principles of rukhsah remain relevant, there is a need for renewed ijtihad to contextually define the criteria for safar and emergency conditions so that Islamic law remains adaptable without compromising its normative authority.
