<![CDATA[This paper aimed at exploring judges’ disparity in deciding divorce disputes in religious courts and district courts. Disparity is not only the differences in legal subjects that obey the absolute competence of different judicial environment but also the norms that serve as guidelines. This research is empirical juridical research with primary data namely judges’ decision and the results of judges’ interview. This research found that there were several disparity differences between religious and district judges in deciding divorce disputes.

Consideration of the rules of Islamic law has a very important role for judges in making decisions.]]>
