Fenomena Pernikahan Siri Dalam Perspektif Sosiologi Hukum Islam Dusun Melapis Desa Sungai Duri Kecamatan Sungai Raya Kabupaten Bengkayang

Abstract

The phenomenon of serial marriage is still a prominent social reality in Melapis Hamlet, Sungai Duri Village, Sungai Raya District, Bengkayang Regency. This study aims to examine the factors behind the occurrence of serial marriages and analyze their implications in the perspective of the sociology of Islamic law.

This study uses a qualitative approach with data collection techniques in the form of field observations, in-depth interviews, and documentation of community leaders, serial marriage perpetrators, village officials, and religious leaders.

The results showed that the practice of serial marriage in the study location was influenced by several factors, including low public understanding of marriage law regulations, the encouragement of local culture that still tolerates this practice, economic reasons, and the desire of some couples to avoid administrative procedures that are considered complicated or costly. From the perspective of the sociology of Islamic law, this phenomenon reflects the gap between formal legal norms, both state law and Islamic law, which emphasizes the importance of marriage registration and the social reality of society that prioritizes religious legitimacy and social acceptance over state legality.
