Contemporary Indonesians witness the rise of the popularity of marriage of the minors, despite the application of the Indonesian Marriage Law no 1/1974 that forbids child marriages for decades. The enactment of the Law decades ago was meant to be a social engineering mean to erase the practice of child marriage with social compromises. Recent research in medical studies show that there is significantly high risk for young women under 18 years old who do sexual intercourse to be infected with servick cancer. Many other research on child marriage using psychological and social approaches also suggest that actors of child marriage are of high risk of suffering from social and psychological troubles. Now, what can we do with the Indonesian Marriage Law that still endorse marriage for girls under 18 years old? This paper discusses the issues from different perspectives.

ABSTRACT: Marriage is one important part in the journey of human’s life. According to the Law No. 1 of 1974 concerning Marriage, Article 1: Marriage is a physical-mental bond between a man and a woman, as a husband and a wife, aiming to create an eternal and happy family/household based on God Almighty. Marriage aims to create a happy and eternal family/household.Article 7 (1) of the Marriage Law stipulates and regulates the age limit for a marriage. A marriage is allowed when the man is at least 19 (nineteen) years old, and the woman is at least 16 (sixteen) years old. Next in the verse 2 is stated that in the event of deviating the verse 1, this article is able to request a dispensation from the Court or other Officials which is appointed by both the parents of the man and the woman. Therefore, a dispensation from the Court or other Officials, which is appointed by both the parents of the man and the woman, is required in order to hold a marriage if those minimum ages are not attained yet.Indeed, a dispensation is able to be justified based on the law aspect (a dispensation is required from the Court or other Officials, appointed by both the parents of the man and the woman, if those minimum ages are not attained yet). The submission of an application for the marriage dispensation to the Court is a legal step, chosen by the applicant in order to legalize their marriage. However, the space for dispensing various forms of child marriage is in fact a form of violation towards the children’s rights, as stated in the legal consideration of the Decree of the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Indonesia No. 22/PUU-XV/2017.Keyword: Marriage, Dispensation, Decree of Law ABSTRAK: Perkawinan merupakan salah satu bagian terpenting dalam perjalanan kehidupan manusia. Menurut ketentuan Undang-undang No. 1 Tahun 1974 tentang Perkawinan Pasal 1 : perkawinan adalah ikatan lahir batin antara seorang pria dengan seorang wanita sebagai suami isteri dengan tujuan untuk membentuk keluarga / rumah tangga yang bahagia dan kekal berdasarkan Ketuhanan Yang Maha Esa  Tujuan perkawinan adalah untuk membentuk keluarga / rumahtangga yang bahagia dan kekal.Pasal 7 (1) Undang-undang Perkawinan menetapkan dan mengatur perihal batas umur untuk melangsungkan perkawinan ; Perkawinan hanya diijinkan jika pihak pria sudah mencapai umur 19 (sembilan belas) tahun dan pihak wanita sudah mencapai umur 16 (enam belas) tahun. Selanjutnya dalam ayat 2 disebutkan bahwa; dalam hal penyimpangan terhadap ayat (1) pasal ini dapat meminta dispensasi kepada Pengadilan atau Pejabat lain yang ditunjuk oleh kedua orangtua pihak pria maupun pihak wanita. Dengan demikian apabila belum mencapai umur tersebut apabila hendak melangsungkan perkawinan diperlukan dispensasi dari Pengadilan atau Pejabat lain yang ditunjuk oleh kedua orangtua pihak pria maupun pihak wanita.Dari aspek hukum pemberian dispensasi memang dapat dibenarkan (apabila belum mencapai umur tersebut, untuk melangsungkan perkawinan diperlukan dispensasi dari Pengadilan atau Pejabat lain yang ditunjuk oleh kedua orangtua pihak pria maupun pihak wanita). Pengajuan permohonan dispensasi perkawinan ke Pengadilan adalah langkah hukum yang dipilih oleh Pemohon untuk melegalkan perkawinan. Akan tetapi “ruang” pemberian dispensasi terhadap berbagai bentuk perkawinan anak sebetulnya juga merupakan salah satu bentuk “pelanggaran” terhadap hak-hak anak, sebagai mana dinayatakan dalam pertimbangan hukum Putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi No. 22/PUU-XV/2017.Kata Kunci: Perkawinan, Dispensasi, Dekresi Hukum

The negative effect of child marriage is one of the historical background of the promulgation of marriage law of Indonesia no. 1 of 1974 and its government regulation. Howwever, the ultimate goal of the promulgation of the law seems never able to achieve. The main reason of the failure is always argument that the Indonesian marriage law is not accordance with Islamic marriage law. The article tries to prove that child marriage is only possible for the prophet Muhammd Saw not for his followers. This possibility only for the prophet therefore is a kind of exceptional regulation. The conclusion is based basically on al-Qur an and sunna of the prophet from a number of perspective and combination of thematic and holistic analysis and approach.

Legal certainty and firmness must exist in a law or regulation. Because without legal certainty, the rights of legal subjects will be taken away and neglected. Likewise, without strictness in the law, it will make legal subjects feel worried and insecure because they feel that the law does not provide protection for them. Law Number 16 Year 2019 concerning Amendments to Law Number 1 Year 1974 is deemed not to have legal certainty and firmness, because the stipulation of the age limit for marriage in this law only considers and is based on Law Number 35 Year 2014 concerning Amendments to Law Number 23 Year 2002 Concerning Child Protection. Furthermore, Law Number 16 Year 2019 still provides an opportunity for the Indonesian people to carry out child marriage. Law Number 16 Year 2019 must look at various other legal aspects and have clear legal consequences, so a comprehensive revision of this law is required. Even if possible, Law Number 1 Year 1974 must be reviewed and adjusted to the current and future legal problems. By applying the concept of benefit and rejecting harm in a law or regulation, the objectives of the law or regulation will be achieved and become effective.

<p>Adanya praktek perkawinan anak yang dilakukan oleh masyarakat di Kecamatan Lintau Buo Utara diyakini bermula dari kompleksitas persoalan yang sembraut, diantaranya adalah lemahnya pengetahuan masyarakat mengenai hukum perkawinan. Pada temuan di lapangan, pelaksanaan pernikahan yang dilansungkan oleh orang tua atau keluarga besar anak dilakukan dalam dua bentuk yaitu perkawinan yang dilakukan di Kantor Pengadilan Agama Batusangkar setelah mendapatkan penetapan hukum dispensasi kawin dan perkawinan yang tidak dilakukan melalui hukum Negara. Pada bentuk perkawinan yang kedua, perkawinan biasanya dilakukan secara diam-diam atau di bawah tangan. Temuan ini dikuatkanoleh penuturan dan informasi dari masyarakat setempat yang sekiranya sudah dianggap sebagai suatu hal yang biasa. Untuk menyikapi informasi dan kebiasaan masyarakat di atas, penelitian ini berusaha untuk mengulas dan mendalami pemahaman masyarakat terkait sejauh mana aturan hukum Negara melalui hukum perkawinan dilaksanakan.Pada akhir penelitian akan diketahui apakah pertimbangan menikahkan anak sudah terintegrasi dengan baik antara ide-ide <em>fiqh</em> dan isi Undang-Undang Perkawinan, atau hanya sebatas pengetahuan yang tidak dilaksanakan, dan selalu berujung pada kebiasaan menikahkan anak dengan cara-cara yang bertentangan dengan hukum negara.</p><p> </p><p>The existence of child marriage practices conducted by the community in Kecamatan Lintau Buo Utara is believed to stem from the complexity of unresolved issues among others is the weak knowledge of the community regarding marriage law.

Abstract This contribution deals with the influence of the Reformation on the law in Denmark. The Reformation was basically a reform of the church, but it also affected the concept of law and state in general. In 1536, King Christian III dismissed the catholic bishops and withheld the property of the church. The king, as custos duarum tabularum, guardian of both the tablets of law, also took over the legislation for the church. Especially in subjects of morals and criminal law new principles and statutes were enacted. Copenhagen University was reformed into a protestant seminary even though the former faculties were maintained. For that task Johannes Bugenhagen was summoned who also drafted the new church ordinance of 1537. In marriage law protestant principles were introduced. A marriage order was established in 1582.
