Abstract

The background of polygamy in Indonesia involves complexity in protecting women, especially economic, social, and psychological disparities. The practice of polygamy reflects the uncertainty of marriage and divorce regulations, giving rise to negative impacts on women and children, including conflict and domestic violence. The protection of women requires legal reform, an educational approach, and active community involvement to overcome injustice in the practice of polygamy. This research aims to understand the phenomenon of women's protection in the context of polygamy in Indonesia with a focus on the city of Padang. Primary data was collected through interviews and observations using qualitative descriptive methods, while secondary data from various literature reviews was analyzed using data description and conclusion-drawing techniques. Women who are polygamous face verbal, nonverbal, and physical pressure. Even though there are religious and legal regulations, the effectiveness of sanctions in Indonesia is still low. Solutions include education, unconditional denial of consent, and legal protection, while spiritual experts face challenges resulting from societal misunderstanding and intimidation from prospective husbands.

Abstract

This research reviews the child protection paradigm in the Indo-Pacific region, especially in Indonesia, by highlighting the imbalance between the status of developed countries and the need to develop thinking and implementation of Islamic law. The research results show that understanding of Islamic law regarding child protection is in line with human rights principles and the Child Protection Law. Factors influencing child trafficking involve the social and economic conditions of countries, while movements, interactions, and changes in child trafficking systems reflect the complexity of this problem. Child protection agencies highlight the mode of child trafficking through online channels and loose borders, with the main obstacles being differences in levels of understanding and lack of coordination between countries. Parents emphasized education, the role of the community in prevention, personal experiences related to concerns about children's safety, and participation in children's education. Parents' hopes include strengthening legal and policy frameworks involving cultural values and Islamic law, as well as community support for more effective prevention efforts. In conclusion, this research provides critical insight into the role of Islamic law and cooperation between government and society in protecting children from trafficking in the Indo-Pacific region.

Abstract

Husband and wife have different characteristics and are difficult to reconcile; these differences in characteristics can lead to conflict in the household. One of the factors that causes conflict in the household is that communication is not going well. This research focuses on the communication patterns of husband and wife in resolving family conflicts from the perspective of Islamic family law. To answer this problem, research was carried out using the literature study method. The first step was identifying relevant library sources, including books, scientific journals, articles, theses and other publications. These sources are evaluated based on the content's reliability, legitimacy, and novelty. Next, the researcher synthesizes findings from various sources to draw comprehensive conclusions. The research results identify five key factors shaping communication patterns in Muslim marital relationships: integration of religious teachings, religious commitment, gender role expectations, cultural influences, and application of religious principles in conflict resolution, especially Shariah law. Integrating these elements is essential for fostering healthy commu-nication and strengthening marital bonds.
