Abstract

The prevailing paradigm in society still positions child-rearing and education as primarily the mother's responsibility, while fathers are more often associated with the role of breadwinner. However, Islamic educational principles emphasize that both father and mother share equal responsibility in building a harmonious family and educating children. This study aims to analyze fathers' understanding of their roles in Islam, their involvement in early childhood care, and the development of children who receive paternal caregiving. The research employed a qualitative case study method, with data collection techniques including observation, interviews, field notes, and documentation. Data analysis was conducted through pattern matching, explanation building, and chronological analysis. The study involved three families with varying employment conditions of fathers and mothers. The findings reveal that optimal paternal involvement positively impacts child development, whereas in other families, fathers' participation in caregiving remains limited in both quality and quantity, with caregiving roles predominantly assisted by mothers and grandmothers. These findings highlight the importance of enhancing fathers' participation in childcare to foster balanced character development in children in accordance with Islamic educational principles.

Abstract

The phenomenon of weak child education in the family and the lack of public understanding of the concept of family planning (KB) in line with Islamic teachings are social problems that have an impact on the quality of Muslim family life. Many parents do not understand that early child education and careful family planning are strategic steps in forming a sakinah family. Departing from this issue, this study aims to examine the hadiths on child education and examine their normative implications for the concept of family planning in the perspective of Islamic law. The method used is qualitative with a literature study approach and descriptive-normative analysis. The hadiths analysed include the responsibility of parents in educating children and protecting offspring spiritually, ethically and socially. The results show that hadith-based child education is not only a moral guideline, but also has normative values that support proportional family planning practices. This is in line with the principle of ḥifẓ al-nasl in maqāṣid al-sharī'ah, namely maintaining the continuity and quality of generations. Family planning in the hadith perspective is seen as a shar'i strategy to build family resilience. The novelty of this research lies in the integration of child education and hadith-based family planning policies, which are still rarely discussed in Islamic family law studies. Theoretically, this research expands the normative understanding of hadith towards socio-religious policies, and practically provides a basis for the development of Islamic family planning programmes that support the formation of sakinah families in Indonesia.

Abstract

The revelation of the verses of the Qur'an regarding inheritance affirms that men and women have equal status as heirs, as stipulated in Surah An-Nisa verses 11-12. This provision reflects the principle of justice in Islamic law through the recognition and protection of women's rights. However, in the social practices of the Malay inland community of Sambas, there is still a discrepancy between Islamic legal norms and customary practices. The distribution of inheritance tends to be carried out equally between boys and girls, on the grounds of social justice and equality, without referring to the proportional provisions in sharia. This study is a field study with a phenomenological approach to understand the construction of the meaning of justice in the inheritance practices of Malay border communities. The results show that equal distribution of inheritance is considered fair because it aligns with cultural values, family solidarity, and the collective conscience of the community. This tradition has been deeply rooted and has gained social legitimacy across generations. The research gap in this study lies in the lack of studies that specifically examine the dialectic between Islamic inheritance law and customary practices in Malay border communities, especially from the perspective of subjective experience and the construction of the meaning of local justice. The novelty of this research lies in its interpretive analysis of local culturally based concepts of justice interacting with sharia norms, resulting in a new understanding of how border communities reconstruct inheritance justice amidst the tension between normative texts and social reality.

Abstract

The decision of married couples to remain childfree has increasingly become a social phenomenon that has sparked considerable public debate. From the perspective of Islamic law, having children is regarded as one of the objectives of marriage, closely related to the preservation of lineage (hifz al-nasl). Consequently, the decision to remain childfree warrants a comprehensive legal analysis. This study aims to identify the factors influencing married couples' decisions to remain childfree and to examine the legal status of such decisions under Islamic law. This research employs a qualitative method using a library research approach. Data were collected from the Qur'an, Hadith, classical Islamic jurisprudential texts, fatwas, books, scholarly journals, and relevant previous studies. The data were analyzed through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that childfree decisions are influenced by personal, psychological and medical, economic, and philosophical factors. From the perspective of Islamic law, having children is regarded as a recommended act (mandub) and an important objective of marriage, but it is not considered a legal obligation. An analysis of the practice of 'azl (coitus interruptus), along with the views of classical and contemporary Muslim scholars, indicates that the decision to remain childfree is generally permissible when it is based on mutual agreement between spouses and supported by legitimate considerations of public benefit (maslahah), although it is viewed as foregoing the virtue of having offspring. Therefore, the legal status of childfree may be classified as mubah (permissible) or makruh (discouraged), depending on the underlying reasons and circumstances..

Abstract

This study explores Nurcholish Madjid’s perspective on interfaith marriage and its implementation in contemporary society. As a moderate Muslim thinker, Nurcholish Madjid emphasizes pluralism, tolerance, and the importance of broader interreligious understanding. The research focuses on two questions: (1) What are Nurcholish Madjid’s views on interfaith marriage? and (2) How is his concept implemented in present-day society? This research uses a qualitative normative juridical method with library research as the primary approach. Primary sources include the Qur’an, Hadith, and Nurcholish Madjid’s works such as Fiqh Lintas Agama and Islam Kerakyatan dan Keindonesiaan. The findings indicate that Madjid views interfaith marriage, particularly between Muslims and People of the Book (Jews and Christians), as permissible if contextualized within modern socio-historical settings. He argues that Qur’anic prohibitions are not absolute but must be understood in light of contemporary pluralism. Madjid further believes that religious diversity can strengthen social harmony through interfaith dialogue and tolerance. However, this view contrasts with Indonesia’s Islamic legal framework (KHI), which strictly prohibits interfaith marriage. The study concludes that Madjid’s thought represents a liberal-progressive approach, offering alternative perspectives on marriage law in Islam, yet remains controversial within the broader Muslim community.

Abstract

This study discusses the rights and obligations of husband and wife from the perspective of the Qur'an and Indonesia’s Marriage Law. The background lies in the gap between understanding and practice of marital roles, especially when religious values interact with state law. The purpose is to analyze the compatibility and divergence between Qur'anic norms and the provisions of Law No. 1 of 1974 on Marriage. This research employs a qualitative normative-comparative method, analyzing relevant Qur'anic verses and comparing them with legal statutes. The findings show a general harmony between the Qur'an and the Marriage Law in regulating balanced roles, such as financial responsibility, mutual respect, and cooperation in family life. However, interpretive and practical differences remain, posing challenges for family law implementation in Indonesia. This research contributes to Islamic legal literature and provides insights for policymakers to align national law with religious values.
