This study analyzes Government Regulation (PP) Number 28 of 2024 on Health in Indonesia, focusing on access to contraception for adolescents, which has sparked debates regarding its impact on sexual behavior and moral values, particularly from a religious perspective. On the other hand, arguments supporting access to contraception emphasize its role in preventing unwanted pregnancies, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and safeguarding adolescents' reproductive health. This study examines Islamic principles such as preserving life (hifz al-nafs), preventing harm (sad al-dhara'ir), and protecting the family (hifz al-usrah), as well as differing fiqh perspectives on contraception. The findings reveal that while premarital sex is prohibited in Islam, the principle of health protection may justify the use of contraception in certain situations. However, access to contraception for unmarried adolescents remains controversial and requires a holistic approach. This study highlights the importance of sexuality education grounded in Islamic values and the role of families and communities in guiding adolescents. The ideal solution lies in establishing an integrated system that combines responsible sexuality education, adolescent counseling, and family support. Dialogue among policymakers, religious scholars, healthcare practitioners, and civil society is crucial to formulating policies that are wise and in line with Islamic principles.
