Abstract

Marriage is a bond between a man and a woman intended to establish a family characterized by sakinah, mawaddah, and wa rahmah. However, the practice of nikah siri, or marriage that is not officially registered, may give rise to legal issues, particularly concerning children’s legal status and the protection of their rights. This study aimed to analyze the impact of nikah siri on children’s legal status and the protection of their rights from the perspective of Islamic family law. The study employed a literature-based method using statutory and conceptual approaches. Data were collected through documentation and analyzed descriptively. The results showed that the non-registration of marriage may create legal uncertainty that could hinder proof of a child’s legal status and the fulfillment of the child’s rights, including the rights to legal identity, financial support, and inheritance. This condition may place children in a vulnerable position when seeking legal protection within the Indonesian legal system. These findings confirm that official marriage registration plays an important role in providing legal certainty and protecting the rights of children born from such marriages. This study contributes to strengthening the understanding of the relationship between marriage registration, children’s legal status, and the protection of children’s rights from the perspective of Islamic family law. In practical terms, marriage registration needs to be strengthened to prevent legal problems that may disadvantage children.
