Analisis Yuridis terhadap Dispensasi Pernikahan Anak di Bawah Umur di Pengadilan Agama Karanganyar Tahun 2024
Abstract
This study aims to analyze the underlying factors that lead to the filing of marriage dispensation requests for minors and to examine the legal considerations applied by the Karanganyar Religious Court in granting such dispensations in 2024. Utilizing a qualitative method with a normative juridical approach, the research is supported by field data obtained through interviews, observation, and documentation, particularly involving judges and court decisions. The findings indicate that most marriage dispensation cases involve minors who are either pregnant, have engaged in premarital sexual relationships, or are at risk of committing zina (illicit sexual conduct), prompting parents to seek legal marriage approval. The main reasons cited include preserving family honor, preventing social stigma, and ensuring the legal status of children born out of wedlock. Legally, the court refers to Law No. 16 of 2019 (amendment to Law No. 1 of 1974), the Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI), the Civil Code, and Supreme Court Regulation (PERMA) No. 5 of 2019 on Marriage Dispensation Guidelines. Additionally, Islamic legal principles (qaidah fiqhiyyah) and prophetic traditions are used as moral and religious justification to prioritize the best interest of the child and prevent greater harm. The study concludes that the court's decisions are grounded not only in formal legal norms but also in considerations of social realities, psychological maturity, and potential harm, reflecting a contextual application of law in response to contemporary challenges faced by Muslim communities in Indonesia.
