<![CDATA[This study examines gender bias in the husband's position in cases of nusyuz (conviction of a wife's infidelity) in the Religious Courts. Gender studies in Islamic family law have focused more on protecting women, leaving the husband's position as the injured party in a wife's infidelity rarely explored. The research gap lies in the limited analysis of the unequal considerations of judges regarding husbands' rights in nusyuz cases. The novelty of this study lies in its attempt to present a balanced perspective on gender justice in assessing the positions of husbands and wives based on their respective actions in domestic matters. This study aims to analyze forms of gender bias in Religious Court decisions regarding nusyuz (conviction of a wife's infidelity). The method used is normative legal research with a case-based and conceptual approach through a study of court decisions and Islamic legal literature. The research hypothesis indicates a tendency for decisions to be more oriented toward protecting the wife without proportionally considering the husband's losses. The results confirm that the principle of justice in Islamic law is reciprocal and must be applied proportionally without gender bias that disadvantages either party.]]>
