<![CDATA[Objective: This study aims to analyze the childfree phenomenon from the perspective of Emile Durkheim's sociology and the view of the Qur'an, to understand the dynamics of social and religious values in Indonesian society. Theoretical framework: The theoretical framework refers to Durkheim's concepts such as social facts, organic solidarity, anomie, and collective morality, as well as classical and contemporary interpretations of the Qur'an on the value of heredity in Islam. Literature review: The literature review includes Durkheim's theory of social transformation and the mufasir's interpretation of the importance of heredity in Islam, both from classical (At-Thabari, Al-Qurtubi) and modern (Al-Misbah, Al-Azhar) interpretations. Method: This study uses a descriptive qualitative method with a literature study approach. Data were collected from literary sources such as the works of Emile Durkheim and classical and contemporary interpretations of the Qur'an. The analysis was carried out interpretively to understand the social and religious meaning of the childfree phenomenon in the context of Indonesian society. Results: The phenomenon of childfree reflects a change in values in modern society according to Durkheim, while in Islam heredity is considered a mandate and part of worship, as affirmed in various interpretations. Implications: The childfree phenomenon needs to be understood as a reflection of social and spiritual change, which demands an integrative approach between individual freedom and collective values. Novelty: This research is unique in that it combines sociological and theological analysis in examining the issue of child freedom, offering a cross-disciplinary perspective that is relevant to the context of Indonesian society.]]>
