The results of the study show that; the concept of syibhul iddah for men is present as a solution to minimize the harm that may arise due to divorce. This syibhul iddah provides a waiting period for men to calm down and reconsider their decision to divorce. Although men are not required to undergo the iddah period like women, in some situations, the application of syibhul iddah can provide greater benefits. For example, syibhul iddah can prevent hasty reconciliation and potentially cause the same problems in the future.
