Abstract

Penelitian ini berawal dari sebuah kitab an-Nikah yang telah banyak dilakukan analisa oleh akademisi terkait konstruk pemikiran Syekh Arsyad al-Banjari yang notabene menyebutkan bahwa pemikirannya banyak berasal dari Syafi’iyah, di samping beliau bermazhab Syafi’i, namun tidak menutup kemungkinan pengambilan hukumnya melalui kearifan lokal yang ada. Penelitian ini berbasis literatur menggunakan studi pustaka secara ekstentif, yang berusaha untuk menemukan konstruk pemikiran Syekh Muhammad Arsyad al-Banjari dalam perspektif Konstkruksi Sosial Peter L Berger, serta mengungkap adanya relevansi konsep kafa’ah Syekh Arsyad al-Banjari dalam membangun keluarga yang harmoni, sehingga adanya faktor-faktor perceraian yang di latar belakangi oleh aib, ekonomi, zina, ketaqwaan dalam agama, serta strata sosial, yang demikian hal tersebut termasuk dalam kajian kafa’ah dapat diminimalisir. Berangkat dari teori yang menyebutkan bahwa tidak adanya kafa’ah menimbulkan aib dikemudian hari. melihat maraknya perceraian yang begitu massif, menjadi perhatian yang perlu dipertimbangkan bersama, tidak terkecuali bagi pemerintah terkait, mengingat regulasi yang ada dalam perundang-undangan berkaitan dengan kafa’ah masih belum rinci dijelaskan.

Review

This paper presents a highly engaging and interdisciplinary analysis of Syekh Muhammad Arsyad Al-Banjari's concept of *kafa'ah* (suitability in marriage) through the lens of Peter L. Berger's social construction theory. The research departs from conventional interpretations that primarily situate Al-Banjari's thought within the Syafi'i school, instead proposing an exploration of how local wisdom may have influenced his legal rulings on marital compatibility. This novel approach is motivated by the pervasive issue of high divorce rates, which the authors suggest are often linked to factors such as social stigma ('aib), economic disparity, moral failings (zina), religious piety, and social stratification—all areas where a robust understanding of *kafa'ah* could be pivotal. A significant strength of this proposed research lies in its innovative theoretical framework. By employing Peter L. Berger's social construction perspective, the paper promises to offer a fresh and nuanced understanding of Al-Banjari's jurisprudential approach, potentially revealing the intricate interplay between textual traditions and socio-cultural realities in the formation of Islamic legal thought. The stated methodology of an extensive literature-based study is appropriate for this type of conceptual and historical analysis. Furthermore, the paper aims to demonstrate the practical relevance of Al-Banjari's *kafa'ah* concept in contemporary family life, asserting its potential to foster harmonious marriages and minimize common divorce triggers, thereby addressing a critical societal problem where current legal regulations are deemed insufficiently detailed. While the ambition of the research is commendable, the abstract could benefit from greater specificity regarding the *particular* mechanisms of Berger's social construction theory that will be applied to Al-Banjari's work. A more explicit outline of how "local wisdom" is theorized to influence *fiqh* rulings within this framework would also strengthen the theoretical foundation. Additionally, while highlighting the relevance of *kafa'ah* to divorce prevention is crucial, the abstract could briefly touch upon how the paper plans to *demonstrate* this relevance beyond simply stating it. Nonetheless, this paper represents a timely and academically enriching endeavor that bridges classical Islamic jurisprudence with modern sociological theory, offering a compelling case for the continued relevance of *kafa'ah* in addressing contemporary marital challenges and promising a significant contribution to both Islamic studies and the sociology of religion.
