Abstract

This study examines the judicial reasoning model in granting marriage dispensation at the Takengon Syar'iyah Court through a critical analysis of Decision Number 185/Pdt.P/2024/MS.Tkn. Using a socio-legal approach with legal pluralism and maqashid al-syariah frameworks, this research reveals that judges employ a three-stage hierarchical reasoning pattern: formal-procedural, social fact verification, and Islamic law substantive justification. The findings indicate that positive law (Law No. 16/2019 and PERMA No. 5/2019) functions as an initial barrier and procedural legitimizer, while Islamic law, particularly the fiqh maxim dar'u al-mafasid muqaddamun 'ala jalb al-mashalih (preventing harm takes precedence over bringing benefit), serves as a substantive problem-solver. Local socio-cultural realities, especially unplanned pregnancy and family honor concerns, act as triggering factors that are subsequently framed as "legal emergencies." This research identifies a critical paradox: the court's comprehensive advice on the risks of child marriage (educational disruption, mental health issues, and potential domestic violence) is ultimately overridden by the immediate need to resolve social crises. The study concludes that this practice represents "reactive legal pluralism" that effectively addresses immediate social conflicts but fails to provide proactive, long-term child protection, thereby reducing the "best interests of the child" principle to mere procedural formality rather than substantive consideration.

Abstract

This study examines of the beterang tradition for girls in strengthening family resilience among the Serawai ethnic community through the perspective of maslahah mursalah. The study used a qualitative approach combining legal-sociological and normative methods. Data were gathered by observing, conducting detailed interviews, and reviewing documents from traditional leaders, religious people, parents, and young women. The findings indicate that the beterang tradition serves as a medium for internalizing religious, moral, and social values, contributing significantly to the psychological and spiritual readiness of young women for family life. It also plays a strategic role in preventing family conflicts, strengthening social relations, and fostering ethical awareness. From the perspective of maslahah mursalah, this tradition fulfills the principles of maqashid al-shari‘ah, particularly in safeguarding religion, life, intellect, lineage, and property, thus remaining relevant as a contextual model of family education based on Islamic values and local wisdom.

Abstract

The regulation of the distribution of marital property in Indonesia has not yet incorporated a child-protection perspective. In fact, divorce has direct consequences for children, particularly in situations where the marital property consists of only a single asset, namely the family home. If such property is divided equally between the husband and the wife, it may result in adverse effects on the best interests of the child. This study aims to analyze the urgency of reformulating the regulation of marital property distribution in a manner oriented toward child protection and the best interests of the child as reflected in Supreme Court Circular Letter (SEMA) Number 1 of 2022. This research employs a normative legal research method. The legal materials used consist of the Marriage Law and the Compilation of Islamic Law. Data collection was carried out through a literature review of library materials. The data were analyzed descriptively and prescriptively. The findings indicate that reformulating the regulation on postponing the distribution of marital property in the form of legislation is essential to address the existing legal vacuum in Indonesia. Although the Supreme Court has issued an internal policy in the form of a SEMA, its effectiveness is weak because it functions merely as an internal directive that is not legally binding on judges. A provision acquires binding force only when it is regulated in statutory legislation. The SEMA has attempted to realize the best interests of the child by providing for the postponement of the distribution of marital property when the property acquired during the marriage consists solely of a house that serves as the family residence. Dividing the house equally between the husband and the wife may generate negative consequences for the child, as the child could lose their place of residence.
