Fatwa is a practical law similar to fiqh (al-ahkām al-'amaliyah). Therefore, the fatwa must be context-bound; context of time (tempus), place (locus), context of natural conditions, social context, demographic context, and other contexts. In the Indonesian context, the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) is the official state-recognized institution to issue fatwas as guidelines for Indonesian Muslims. This paper answers two questions: how is the MUI fatwa related to the legal status of interfaith marriages? Furthermore, is the MUI fatwa on interfaith marriage relevant to the reform of Islamic family law in Indonesia? As a result, although many scholars allow interfaith marriages because Muslim men and women are experts of the book, the MUI fatwa forbids interfaith marriages based on sadd al-dzari'ah to prevent negative impacts. This is a family law product with a renewal side, because it is responsive to social dynamics and changing times, by prioritizing the benefit based on maqasid shari'ah

Dewasa ini banyak masalah-masalah kontemporer dalam hukum keluarga yang membutuhkan jawaban segera. Jumhur ulama berpendapat bahwa perkawinan beda agama sah jika dilakukan oleh laki-laki muslim dengan wanita Ahli Kitab, selain itu tidak boleh (haram), demikian dalam KHI dan Undang-Undang No. 1 tahun 1974 tidak disetujui, meskipun ada celah untuk diperbolehkannya perkawinan beda agama dengan dikeluarkannya yurisprudensi Mahkamah Agung No. 1400/K/Pdt/1986 tanggal 20 Januari 1989. Dualisme hukum tersebut membutuhkan jawaban pasti yang selanjutnya menjadi tanggung jawab para sarjana hukum keluarga Islam.]

One of the interesting themes of Islamic family law reform is the legal status of polygamy. Almost all Muslim countries make efforts to narrow the space for the practice of polygamy by providing sanctions for the doers, including Tunisia, Pakistan, Egypt, Syria, Malaysia, and Indonesia. This article tries to discuss and analyze this case by making a comparison between the laws of family law in some countries—such as Tunisia, Pakistan, Egypt, Syria, Malaysia, and Indonesia—and the concept of classical fiqh. The study shows that even though each of these countries has the same spirit of renewal, they practice different reform issues related to polygamy. It can be clearly seen in the diversity of forms of sanctions for the doers of polygamy.DOI: 10.15408/ajis.v16i1.2891

Interfaith marriage, in fact, is a contentious issue in the family law. The arrangement of interfaith marriage in Indonesia is experiencing a change since before and after the establishment of the constitutional Law of R.I. No. 1 of 1974 regarding Marriage. Although there are changes in the regulations but some parties consider that arrangement of interfaith marriage is not firm, it is unclear / smuggling law in it. Regulation of interfaith marriage in Indonesia is considered to have reduced the freedom to choose a mate and find the happiness with a partner of different religions. This is considered by the applicant that Article 2, paragraph 1 does not comply with the principle of freedom of human rights. This paper focuses on studying the problems of the interfaith marriages after a Constitutional Court decision No. 68 / PUU-XII / 2014 in the perspective of human rights. Constitutional Court rejected entirely about judicial interfaith marriage, as it is considered unreasonable under the law and marriage in Indonesia is based on religion. Constitutional Court's decision contains the values of human rights with a particular meaning and is limited by the limited freedom of religion in Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution.[Perkawinan beda agama secara fakta merupakan persoalan yang menjadi perdebatan dalam hukum keluarga. Pengaturan perkawinan beda agama di Indonesia mengalami perubahan sejak sebelum dan setelah adanya UU R.I. Nomor 1 tahun 1974 tentang Perkawinan. Walaupun ada perubahan secara regulasi tetapi beberapa pihak menganggap bahwa pengaturan perkawinan beda agama tidak tegas, ada ketidakjelasan/penyelundupan hukum di dalamnya. Regulasi perkawinan beda agama di Indonesia dianggap telah mengurangi kebebasan untuk memilih jodoh dan menemukan kebahagiaan bersama pasangannya yang berbeda agama. Hal inilah yang dianggap oleh para pemohon bahwa Pasal 2 ayat 1 tidak sesuai dengan prinsip kebebasan dalam HAM. Tulisan ini difokuskan untuk mengkaji permasalahan perkawinan beda agama pasca putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi Nomor 68/ PUU-XII/2014 dalam perspektif HAM. Mahkamah Konstitusi menolak seluruhnya tentang uji materiil perkawinan beda agama, karena dinilai tidak beralasan menurut hukum dan perkawinan di Indonesia yang berdasarkan agama. Putusan MK mengandung nilai-nilai HAM yang bermakna partikular dengan kebebasan terbatas dan dibatasi oleh agama dalam Pancasila dan UUD 1945]

Abstract: Mapping the Mainstreaming Debate Regarding to Interfaith Marriage Law. This article intends to observe the linkage of the implementation of interfaith marriage law  with the opinion of  Islamic jurists’ and to political and social change in a country. Interfaith marriage law—as occurred in (former) North Yemen, Jordan, Algeria, and Iraq—is not influenced by the Islamic school of thought of the majority population. In contrary, interfaith marriage in the aforementioned states is not inline with the mainstream opinion of islamic jurists that forbidding softly (makrūh) Muslim man to marry a woman of Ahl al-Kitāb. The regulation is obviously influenced by  the rise of Islamism, such as the Muslim brotherhood in Jordan, Front Islamic Salvation in Algeria, and the growing influence of Shiite movements in Iraq and North Yemen in establishing religious conservatism in matters of interfaith marriage. Thus, it can be understood why those countries prefer to refer  text of the Quran that regulate interfaith marriage law.Keywords: interfaith marriage law, islamic family law, Ahl al-KitābAbstrak: Arus Utama Perdebatan Hukum Perkawinan Beda Agama. Artikel ini ingin menguji keterhubungan pemberlakuan hukum perkawinan beda agama dengan pendapat-pendapat ulama fikih dan perubahan sosial politik suatu negara. Hukum perkawinan beda agama di Yaman Utara, Yordania, Aljazair, dan Irak tidak begitu sepenuhnya dipengaruhi oleh mazhab fikih yang dianut mayoritas penduduknya. Justru perkawinan beda agama di negara-negara tersebut sedikit keluar dari mainstream pendapat ulama fikih yang memakruhkan laki-laki Muslim yang menikah dengan wanita Ahl al-Kitāb. Posisi ini diambil bukan karena dipengaruhi oleh kolonialisme Barat yang berlangsung lama dalam memberlakukan hukum, melainkan kuatnya Islamisme, seperti Ikhwanul Muslimin di Yordania, Front Islamic Salvation di Aljazair, dan kuatnya pengaruh gerakan Syiah di Irak dan Yaman Utara dalam membangun konservatisme agama dalam urusan perkawinan beda agama. Tidak heran jika empat negara ini mengambil jalan kembali ke teks Alquran untuk mengatur hukum perkawinan beda agama.Kata Kunci: hukum perkawinan beda agama, hukum keluarga Islam, Ahl al-Kitāb
