This study aims to analyze the rising trend of online marriage in Indonesia and evaluate its legal standing from the perspective of Islamic Family Law. The research employs a normative legal approach with a descriptive-analytical design, utilizing digital data collection and literature review techniques. The findings indicate that while electronic means facilitate long-distance unions, Islamic jurisprudence and positive Indonesian law place stringent conditions on the absolute presence of physical assembly (majelis akad). The discussion explores the diverging opinions among classical scholars and contemporary fatwas, answering why spatial consensus remains crucial to prevent legal flaws. In conclusion, online marriage lacks absolute certainty under positive Indonesian law without official judicial validation, urging a more adaptive yet protective regulation to preserve the sanctity of contracts.
