Tinjauan Fatwa MUI Nomor 03/KF/MUI-SU/IV/2011 terhadap Pelaksanaan Foto Pre Wedding

The pre-wedding phenomenon is the implementation of photos taken before a legal marriage bond is established. Pre-wedding has been regulated and legally established based on MUI Fatwa Number 03/KF/MUI-SU/IV/2011 which strictly prohibits taking pre-wedding photos due to elements of ikhtilat and khalwat. However, in practice there is a phenomenon of pre-wedding photos in the Ponorogo area which in practice does not lead to elements of seclusion. So based on this, the legal implementation can be reviewed based on the MUI fatwa which discusses the implementation of pre-wedding photos. The purpose of this research is to find out the rationale for couples carrying out pre-wedding photo processions before carrying out the wedding and what the laws are for carrying out pre-wedding photos using Islamic themes and clothing in terms of MUI Fatwa Number 03/KF/MUI-SU/IV/2011. This research uses qualitative research with the type of field research. Meanwhile, data collection techniques were carried out using interviews and observations in the Ponorogo area. From the research conducted, it can be concluded that the rationale for carrying out pre-wedding photos for the perpetrators is as a social function, namely to introduce the prospective bride and groom who have carried out the marriage and also an economic function as a medium for promoting Islamic fashion models. Carrying out pre-wedding photos in Ponorogo is reviewed based on MUI fatwa Number 03/KF/MUI-SU/IV/2011 and is permissible if it does not contain the elements mentioned in the MUI fatwa, namely ikhtilat and khalwat. However, if it contains elements of ikhtilat and khalwat, then taking pre-wedding photos is not permitted.
