The rules regarding the age limit for marriage as contained in Article 7 of Law no. 1 of 1974, which states that the minimum age of marriage for men is 19 years and for women is 16 years. These rules were amended through law no. 16 of 2019, which stipulates that the age limit for marriage, both for men and women, are in the same age, 19 years old. This change is intended to bring benefits of marriage minimizes the conflict in the household. But in fact, the changing age limit for marriage still creates some problems; for example, not a few Muslims view that in Islam, there are no provisions regarding age limits and there are dispensations for those forced to marry under a predetermined age. This research aims to find out the problematics of the law on changing the age limit for marriage. The research approach used qualitative with descriptive analysis methods and literature review. The results of the study indicate that there are several problems regarding the age limit between First, Islamic law does not stipulate a minimum age for marriage, so that some people do not heed the provision; Second, there are some rules regarding dispensation for those who want to get married at the age of 19 by putting forward to the court. This is an opportunity to violate the regulations; Third, changes to the law that have raised the age limit for marriage, in reality, in society, have not been able to stop the rate of early-age marriage.

The provisions of the Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI), article 15 paragraph 1 have not been adjusted to the provisions of Article I of Law no. 16 of 2019 concerning amendments to Law no. 1 of 1974, article 7 paragraph 1, will remain a problem that has the potential to violate the law, namely underage marriage as a marriage which is considered illegal based on the provisions of Law No. 16 of 2019. For this reason, policy makers in this republic must be able to immediately uniform or To harmonize various regulations regarding the adult age limit of a child and in particular the minimum age limit for people who wish to marry, at least, the provisions of Article 15 paragraph 1 of the KHI must be immediately revised and adjusted to the provisions of Article I of Law No.16 of 2019 concerning amendments to Article 7 paragraph 1 of Law No.1 of 1974 concerning Marriage, so that the legal layman can more clearly understand the meaning of the latest statutory provisions regarding the minimum age of 19 years for the prospective bride.

The age of marriage between women and men in the legal structure in Indonesia is an important element and becomes a tough polemic and discourse among academics, practitioners and political elites. This is indicated by, among other things, the following discourse and regulations that specifically regulate marital age, namely Marriage Law Number 1 of 1974 Article 7 (1) which confirms that the marriage age limit is 16 for women and 19 for men. The marriage age limit provisions are further reaffirmed in Article 15 (1) of the Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI) No. 1 of 1991. In its development, the marriage age limit has not fulfilled a sense of justice, until legal measures are taken to review it, so UUP No. 16 of 2019 Article 7 paragraph 1 which states that the age limit for marriage of women and men is 19 years. Equal age restrictions have a purpose - among other things - to create early equality between women and men in marriage, while at the same time being able to suppress and minimize underage marriages so that marital human rights can be realized, as well as destructive things -negative does not happen. The problem then is whether the presence or presence of UUP No. 16 of 2019 will reduce and minimize the number of underage marriages? And will this create an atmosphere of domestic life that is far from manifestations of gender inequality?

This article aims to review the Law and Maqashidasy-Syari'ah regarding the age limit of marriage. The literature of Islamic Law (fiqh) does not explicitly specify the minimum age limit for prospective marriages. Over the course of time, the law privides a minimum age of mariage. There is a clear conflict between the fiqh and the laws. According to the ushuliyin (Islamic law experts)view, in order to produce a law or a fatwa law, a mujtahid (legal exciter) should pay attention to maqashidsyari'ah (law-making purposes). Because the shari'ah is revealed to realize the benefit of mankind, including the marriage problem. The main problem of this research is to investigate the minimum age restriction of marriage according to the law and how to view the maqashidasy-shari'ah against the provisions of the law. This research used library method. Based on the analysis, it can be concluded that the limitation of the minimum age of marriage in the law is intended for the benefit of the family and the ability to achieve the purpose of marriage. Thus, it can be said that it is in accordance with the application of the maqashidasy-shari'ah, that is to preserve human benefit at the level of an-nasal hifdz (nurturing offspring).

Regulation on the age limit for a marriage through Act No. 16 of 2019 is based on the spirit of anti-discrimination and protection of children's rights from the adverse effects of child marriage. However, the efforts to complicate and prevent child marriage has yet to have a significant impact on reducing the rate of child marriage in Indonesia. This condition is occurred by the high level of applications for marriage dispensation that are granted by the court. Hence, the construction of the judge's reasoning in observe the relationship between the substance of the law and the reasons for proposing marriage dispensation is one of the most vital and influential elements. The positivism-legism legal reasoning used in understanding of Act No.16 of 2019 is considered to be the cause of the malfunction of the regulation in protecting and guaranteeing children's human rights. By using doctrinal legal research methods, this research produces a conceptual analysis in the form of a meta-juridical critique on positivist legal reasoning which tends to lead to the legism when trying to understand the objectives of Act No. 16 of 2019 and proposes a progressive legal notion as an ideal reasoning framework in producing decisions on applications for dispensation of marriage that have a perspective on the protection and guarantee of children's rights.

AbstractMarriage dispensation is a legal solution because most of the perpetrators of marriage dispensation are those who do not yet have formal legality to get married, so they then take the legal initiative so that marriages can be recognized. This study aims to determine the perspective of Islamic law, Marriage Law and Compilation of Islamic Law regarding marriage dispensation. The method used is qualitative with primary data sources from the Marriage Law, the Book of Fiqh and the Compilation of Islamic Law while secondary data are books, journals, magazines related to marriage dispensation. The results of this study found that Islamic law does not specifically regulate marriage dispensation because the majority of scholars only mention balig as a condition for marrying a person and do not specify a minimum age of marriage, whereas Law Number 1 of 1974 concerning Marriage and Compilation of Islamic Law strictly regulates underage marriage , i.e. must go through a court hearing mechanism to obtain a marriage dispensation permit.Keywords: Marriage Dispensation, Compilation of Islamic Law AbstrakDispensasi Nikah sebagai solusi hukum karena para pelaku dispensasi nikah kebanyakan mereka yang belum memiliki legalitas formal untuk menikah, sehingga kemudian mengambil ikhtiar hukum agar pernikahan yang dilakukan dapat diakui. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui perspektif hukum Islam, Undang-undang Perkawinan dan Kompilasi Hukum Islam tentang dispensasi nikah. Metode yang digunakan adalah kualitatif dengan sumber data primer dari Undang-Undang Perkawinan, Kitab Fiqh dan Kompilasi Hukum Islam sedangkan data sekunder adalah buku-buku, jurnal, majalah yang terkait dengan dispensasi nikah. Hasil penelitian ini menemukan bahwa Hukum Islam tidak mengatur khusus dispensasi nikah karena mayoritas ulama hanya menyebutkan balig sebagai syarat menikah seseorang dan tidak menentukan minimal usia perkawinan, sedangkan Undang-Undang Nomor 1 Tahun 1974 tentang Perkawinan dan Kompilasi Hukum Islam mengatur ketat tentang perkawinan di bawah umur, yaitu harus melalui mekanisme sidang pengadilan untuk mendapatkan izin dispensasi perkawinanKata Kunci: Dispensasi Nikah, Kompilasi Hukum Islam
