Protection Of Children's Civil Rights In Siri Marriage: An Analysis Of Population Administration Regulations And Maqasid Sharia

Institutions, have raised serious issues regarding the civil rights of children born from these marriages. Although siri marriages are considered religiously valid, the non-registration of these marriages in the state civil registration system means that children born from them face difficulties in obtaining civil rights such as recognition of their status as legitimate children, inheritance rights, and clear identity. In this context, civil registration is crucial to ensure that children's civil rights are secured. This research examines the impact of siri marriages on children's civil rights, by linking maqasid sharia principles and civil registration regulations in Indonesia. Maqasid sharia, which focuses on the protection of religion, soul, mind, offspring and property, provides the basis for the protection of children's rights, including civil rights that are not tied to the parents' marital status. This research also proposes changes or updates in Indonesia's civil registration regulations to accommodate the social and cultural conditions related to siri marriage. An approach that integrates sharia principles with state regulations is expected to provide a more inclusive solution to ensure the rights of children born from siri marriages are protected.
