Marriage in Indonesia is carried out by one sacred recipient man and one woman with the intention of formalizing the marriage bond according to religious norms, legal norms, and social norms.
Conditions of marriage by law
Based on Article 6 of Law no. 1/1974 concerning marriage, the conditions for getting married are things that must be met if a marriage is going to be held. These conditions are:
There is agreement from both parties.
For those who are not yet 21 years old, they must obtain permission from both parents. Or if one of the parents has died or is unable to express his will, then permission can be obtained from the parent who is still alive or the parent who is able to express his will.
If the parents have died or are unable to express their will, then permission is obtained from the guardian, the person who maintains it or a family who is related by blood in a straight line of descent.
For those who are Muslim, in marriage there must be (Article 14 of the Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI):
Future wife
Future husband
Guardian of marriage
Two witnesses
Ijab and kabul
Religious marriage
= Islam
=Marriage in Islam is a human nature and is a worship for a Muslim to be able to perfect his faith and religion. Marriage has the greatest benefit over other social interests. The social interests are maintaining the continuity of the human species, continuing the offspring, launching sustenance, maintaining honor, maintaining public safety from all kinds of diseases that can endanger human life and maintaining peace of mind.
Marriage has a very noble goal, namely to form a happy, eternal family based on God Almighty. This is in accordance with the formulation contained in Law Number 1 of 1974 article 1 that: "Marriage is an outer and inner bond between a woman and a man as husband and wife with the aim of forming a happy and eternal family (household) based on the One Godhead. Almighty."
In marriage, there is a bond between birth and adhan. In marriage, it is always associated with the teachings of each religion and belief which has long provided the rules for how the marriage should be carried out.
In terms of Islam, the conditions for a valid marriage are very important, especially to determine since when it is permissible for a man and a woman to have sexual relations so that they are free from adultery. In Islam, adultery is a major sin. In Indonesia, where the majority of the population is Muslim, Islamic law greatly influences the moral attitude and legal awareness of the people.
Islam uses a simple marriage tradition, with the aim that a person is not trapped or fallen into adultery. This simple procedure seems to be in line with Law Number 1 of 1974 article 2 paragraph 1 which reads: "Marriage is legal if it is carried out according to the laws of each religion and belief." From this article, it seems that it provides opportunities for elements of customary law to follow and even integrate with Islamic law in marriage. In addition, it is caused by the awareness of the people who want it so. One of the customary marriage procedures that is still visible today is marriage that is not registered with the authorized official or is called siri marriage. This marriage is only carried out in front of a marriage officiant or religious expert by fulfilling Islamic law so that this marriage is not registered at the office authorized for it.
Marriage is valid if it meets the pillars and conditions of marriage. The pillars of marriage include the following:
The parties who carry out the marriage contract are the bride and groom.
The existence of a contract (sighat) is a word from the female guardian or her representative (ijab) and is accepted by the male party or his representative (kabul).
There is a guardian of the prospective wife.
There are two witnesses.
If any of these conditions are not met then the marriage is considered invalid, and it is considered that there has never been a marriage. Therefore, it is forbidden for him who does not fulfill these pillars to have sexual relations or all religious prohibitions in association. Thus, if the four pillars have been fulfilled, the marriage is considered valid.
The above marriage according to Islamic law is considered valid, if the marriage is connected with the provisions of Law Number 1 article 2 paragraph 2 of 1974 concerning Marriage which reads: "Every marriage is recorded according to the applicable laws and regulations."
It is emphasized in the same law in article 7 paragraph 1 which states that marriage is only permitted if the man reaches the age of 19 years and the woman has reached the age of 16 years. If you are still not old enough, Article 7 paragraph 2 explains that a marriage can be legalized by requesting a dispensation from the court or other official requested by both the parents of the man or woman.
= Protestant Christianity
=In Protestant Christian marriage ceremonies, marriage is a gift from God and this gift seen as solidarity between husband and wife. Marriage is sacred. A man and a woman form a household because they are united by God. They are no longer two, but one.
In principle, the meaning of marriage in Protestant Christianity has the same meaning, but the rites and regulations are different. Marriage regulations are looser or not as strict and complex as in Catholic Christian marriages.
