Abstract

Belis dalam perkawinan masyarakat lamaholot berupa gading gajah yang diberikan oleh pihak calon mempelai laki-laki kepada keluarga calon mempelai perempuan menjadi suatu bentuk penghargaan yang luar biasa kepada perempuan lamaholot. Aturan adat lamaholot, jika  laki-laki beserta keluarganya telah menunaikan, memberikan atau mengantarkan belis ke kediaman orang tua perempuan, dan dari keluarga pihak perempuan pun telah memberikan balasan dari belis tersebut berupa kain sutra, lipa (sarung), kwatek (kain tenun), pakaian, gelang, kalung dan emas yang diisi penuh dalam lemari, maka mereka telah dinyatakan sah secara adat menjadi pasangan suami istri, meskipun belum terjadi akad nikah secara Islam melalui wali dari pihak perempuan. Belis termasuk dalam kategori hadiah, meskipun dalam aturan adat lamaholot, belis merupakan syarat pemberian mutlak yang harus ditunaikan seorang laki-laki jika ingin menikahi perempuan lamaholot, tapi berdasarkan syariat Islam, belis bukanlah merupakan ketentuan wajib atau syarat mutlak jika ingin melakukan proses pernikahan. Adapun hibah dalam syariat Islam hukumnya adalah sunnah.Belis in the marriage of lamaholot community is in the form of elephant ivory provided by the prospective bridegroom to the family of the prospective bride to be a form of extraordinary appreciation to the lamaholot female. The lamaholot customary rules, when a man and his family have fulfilled, provided or delivered belis to the residence of a woman's parents, and from the woman’s family has offered a reply from the belis in the forms of silk cloth, lipa (sarong), kwatek (woven cloth), clothes, bracelets, necklaces and gold filled in the closet, they have been legally declared customary to become a husband and a wife, even though the marriage contract has not yet taken place through a female guardian. Second, belis belongs to the prize category, although in lamaholot customary rules, belis is an absolute requirement that a man must fulfill when he wishes to marry a lamaholot woman, yet based on the Islamic law, belis is not a mandatory requirement or an absolute requirement when wishing to carry out the marriage process. As for hibah in Islamic law it is sunnah.
