{"title":"BINARY PATRIARCHY IN NIKAH SIRI: An Ecofeminism Perspective","authors":"Aisyah Arsyad","doi":"10.24252/jicsa.v7i1.6726","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.24252/jicsa.v7i1.6726","url":null,"abstract":"Nikah Siri (unregistered, or ‘secret’ marriage) has increased in Indonesia since the passing of marriage law No. 1/1974, one article of which required the registration of all marriages. Meanwhile, under Islamic law ( fikih munakahat ), registration was not one of the pillars of marriage. The 1974 state law provides for penalties for persons involved in unregistered marriages such as nikah siri : on the other hand, under Islamic law nikah siri was considered as marriage, as the terms and the pillars of marriage were fulfilled, even without registration. Religious and state law are clearly at odds as far as marriage registration is concerned. Gradually, N ikah S iri has led to various forms of social problems such as nikah siri online, falsification of documents, and even human trafficking. The main problem which is one focus of this research is the negative impact of nikah siri on women and children. Not having an official marriage registration document creates difficulties for women and children which affects their future life opportunities, as with children not being accepted for schooling, as one example. One significant legal ruling discussed has implications for this social deprivation of women and children but not to the extent expected to date. By using the concepts of dualism from ecofeminism theory (perspective) to analyse the role of patriarchy in creating and perpetuating gender inequality in the case of nikah siri , the writer argues that Islamic marriage law - as it has developed in Indonesia - is still dominated by patriarchal values and, as such, impacts negatively on women and children. The stereotype of istri siri is proven in that the hierarchical dualism that underlies patriarchal structures and thinking, is placing women in a subordinate position. Patriarchal interpretations of Islamic law have put many women in a position where they regard nikah siri as the best option for themselves, although such marriages in fact place them in a precarious position legally and socially, and lead to an imbalance of power both between themselves and the men they marry, and any other legal wives of that man.","PeriodicalId":424634,"journal":{"name":"JICSA (Journal of Islamic Civilization in Southeast Asia)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127448802","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The spiritual experience gained by salik when meeting and union with Allah (individual-transcendental values) should be felt also by others. The transmission of spiritual experience is implemented in empirical life (socio-empirical values) as a form of practicing and teaching a loving Islam, so that the concept of rahmatan lil 'alamin can be felt by all creatures. The process of attaining the maqam requires clarity of heart; peace of mind, mind and environment; as well as sincerity amaliyah. Awareness to negate the existence of self (‘alam nasut) and purify the existence of divinity (‘alam lahut) in self as a form of preparation to accept the holiness of the Khaliq. It is this doctrine of purity that should be practiced and spread by the salik and perceived by all beings to create goodness in the universe. Goodness that does not look to ethnic, religious, ethnic, and state boundaries.

The research problem is how is the history of the Islamic encounter with Gantarangkeke locality and its influence on the beliefs and traditions of the Gantarangkeke people ?. This study belongs to the category of qualitative-descriptive field research, using a historical, philosophical, social, cultural, and descriptive-critical analytical approach. The local tradition of the Gantarangkeke community has grown long before Islam entered their territory. The tradition is rooted in the belief of the Patuntung religion which is the ancient belief of the pre-Islamic Gantarangkeke community. The local tradition is institutionalized at the Pajukukang traditional ceremony which is held every year and has several series of events, namely assulukang pangngajai, akkawaru, if ri pajukukang, and angnganre toballa'na. The encounter of Islam and local traditions gave birth to a model of cultural struggle in which Islam as a teaching that came from the outside and of a global nature was brought into the realm of the locality of the Gantarangkeke tradition. This then gave birth to the concept of Sallang religion as a meeting point between patuntung and Islamic beliefs. The concept of Sallang religion later became the basis for the locus and forms of the struggle of the culture. Cultural struggles enter the locus of the belief system, the socio-cultural system, and the rite system and the symbolic meaning of tradition. The cultural struggle gave birth to four forms of cultural and religious relations, namely negotiation, compromise, syncretism, and cultural acculturation. From this cultural struggle, the local culture model of Gantarangkeke was unique and unique.","PeriodicalId":424634,"journal":{"name":"JICSA (Journal of Islamic Civilization in Southeast Asia)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117081308","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this study was to understand the relationship of religious education with the tradition of harmony and the Islamic community of Kera Island. Religious education institutions on Kera Island have limitations on: 1) facilities and infrastructure; and 2) government support. Both of these limitations can be said to be closely related to the unclear population position of the Kera Island community. Therefore, they need the involvement of private institutions as a temporary solution. For a permanent solution, it is necessary to certify the population of the island of Kera.","PeriodicalId":424634,"journal":{"name":"JICSA (Journal of Islamic Civilization in Southeast Asia)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127368950","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
