<![CDATA[This study aims to analyze husbands' perceptions of sighat taklik talak and its relevance in building harmonious families in Kesambi District, Cirebon City. Using a qualitative descriptive approach through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation, the research involved the Head of the Office of Religious Affairs (KUA), religious figures, and husbands registered at Head of the Office of Religious Affairs (KUA) Kesambi. Data were thematically analyzed through reduction, presentation, and conclusion-drawing stages. The findings reveal that the majority of husbands understand sighat taklik talak merely as an administrative formality rather than a binding moral-religious commitment. Two major inhibiting factors were identified: low Islamic and positive legal literacy among husbands, and the dominance of the local sasaton tradition that displaces family harmony orientation from a legal to a cultural-belief framework. Husbands with substantive understanding position sighat taklik talak as an instrument for preventing violations of wives' rights and as a foundation for family harmony. The study recommends the intensification of adaptive pre-marital education and the utilization of digital platforms by Head of the Office of Religious Affairs (KUA) to strengthen husbands' awareness in realizing a sakinah, mawaddah, wa rahmah family.]]>
