Underage marriage can also cause problems regarding the inheritance of children.The type of research used in this paper is the type of normative juridical research with a Statute Approach and Conceptual Approach.The results of the study showed that children born of marriage under the hand were basically legitimate children. This is based on Law Number 1 of 1974 concerning Marriage and the Compilation of Islamic Law.

Before the decision of the Constitutional Court, a child born from marriage under the hand can get an inheritance if both parents carry out a marriage certificate or if their father gives a will to the childKeywords: Inheritance of children, marriage
