Introduction Practically, the occurrence of various reforms in Islamic law, especially the practice of polygamy in society, is an important part to be discussed in this research. Because of that, the legal position and status of polygamy in marriage still reap a lot of controversy and result in injustice. Moreover, psychologically, it may cause feelings of superiority and inferiority. So, it becomes a moral burden among women. 2 The previous fact, even though it has normative support and is seen as an alternative in resolving infidelity and prostitution, then these conditions get support from the aspect of religious law, even considered as part of worship by allowing the practice of polygamy, in condition if someone is able to provide for and act fair. Besides that, polygamy supporters feel that it is not natural for the state to prohibit and threaten polygamous perpetrators with criminal sanctions and is included in the category of minor crimes . , although this does not apply to all regions in Indonesia, except for the people of Aceh. Sociologically, the social conditions of society in Aceh have a variety of uniqueness and includes areas that are given the privilege to implement and apply James Fenske.

In this context, the reform of the polygamy law as outlined through local government policies can give rise to various polemics, as reported by BCC News Indonesia, according to DarwatiAos statement, that the legalization of polygamy does not need to be included in family law (Qanu. ,6 where monogamy is seen as still not right and gives rise to various problems, especially with polygamy, the government should provide education to the community to maintain family harmony. 7 In addition, a human rights activist and activist of the Balai Syura Ureung Inong Aceh organization explained that the practice of polygamy can weaken women, which in the end can be used as a culture to have more than one wife. Based on these statements, the construction of Qanun regulation in issuing and preventing the practice of polygamy outside the Mahkamah SyarAoiyah becomes an important part of social life. 8 The view has a foundation on the protection to obtain legal rights status for women, as well as preventing the occurrence of unregistered marriages, and socially and legally very detrimental to women, while also increasing the possibility of human rights violations in the household that lead to the rights as a wife cannot be fulfilled properly by the husband. Therefore, through various thoughts on the regulation of the qanun, it is expected to be able to build polygamy law, following the local wisdom of the community, and become a grand design in the renewal of Islamic law9 regarding the practice of polygamy in the community, so that later it gets protection Ibnu Elmi A.

Later, it can protect women as people whose rights must be protected along with their obligations. Socially, even though the legalization of polygamy in its application has the principle of legality based on the Criminal Law article 1 paragraph 1, as a basis and guide in transferring an act that regulates various provisions, thus legalizing the practice of polygamy is a representation of the principle of legality based on Law Number 1 Year 1974 and PP No. 9/1975, so that it can then be used as the main basis in constructing a regional rule.

Based on the view, the QurAoan as a guide emphasizes that the practice of monogamy is a form of marriage that is considered the fairest. However, this conception also provides concessions for polygamy with various conditions. In this context, the legal framework for polygamy is essentially built based on the QurAoan, which states and regulates the permissibility of polygamy by Q. an-Nisa verse Historically, the verse was related to the attitude of a husband who wants to marry an orphan, but this verse has a different interpretation among scholars, some even prohibit Thus, family law legislation in several countries is related to polygamy rules, so that it can then be clarified into three parts, including. a country that completely prohibits the practice of polygamy, . a country that allows polygamy with relatively strict . countries that enforce polygamy. 27 Based on this view. Indonesia as a country with the largest Muslim majority community in the world allows polygamy with certain conditions, especially for the people of Aceh, as this is regulated in local government policies,28 through the construction of reforms in the field of Islamic law. regulates the practice of polygamy through local wisdom, through the draft Qanun. In addition, the idea in the field of reforming Islamic law, which regulates the practice of polygamy, has been legally regulated in Law No. 1 of 1974, that the principle of marriage is essentially monogamous. But, the practice of polygamy is also allowed under certain conditions. In this context, the renewal of Islamic law regarding the rules for practicing polygamy is also regulated based on the socio-cultural basis of the Acehnese community through local government policies or draft Qanuns,29 as explained in Articles 37, 38, 39, 40, and 41 Chapter VII, regarding the implementation and practice of polygamy.

Based on the total number of residents in the Aceh province, according to Syafruddin. Junior Registrar of the Mahkamah SyarAoiyah, states that from January to August 2021, the divorce rate increased by 4-6 percent. Although it did not increase significantly compared to the previous year, the number of cases handled by the Mahkamah SyarAoiyah for the 2021 period reached 4,302 cases. Every year, divorce cases continue to increase, with an average increase of 4-6 percent, and never decreases. Meanwhile, the areas with the highest divorce rates throughout 2021, include North Aceh Regency with 503 cases. Bireuen with 354 cases, and Aceh Tamiang with 302 If viewed from the plaintiffAos side, in a total of 4,302 divorce cases, 3,288 divorced cases or wives filed a divorce suit against her husband. And, 1,014 cases were carried out by the husband against his wife. In this context, one of the causes of divorce is influenced by the lack of responsibility of a husband to his wife and the emergence of third parties, both infidelity and unregistered marriage. Thus, based on the various previous issues, the idea of reforming Islamic law through the regulation of the Raqan becomes an important part in controlling polygamy law for the people of Aceh, as stated by Teungku Abdurrani Adian.

In this context, reforms in the regulation of the legal order of polygamy among the public are also part of the form of the application of Islamic law. Through Qanun, which are then manifested into positive law to protect various interests that have not been protected by religious norms. 36 Thus, the idea of regulating polygamy in the Raqan is expected to be able to regulate, foster, guarantee rights and solve various family problems comprehensively in the community. Implementation of Polygamy Through Qanun as Regional Government Policy In this context, the formation of an eclectically codified legislative legislation policy is expected to bring the reforms in the field of Islamic law on the legal order of polygamy in the Raqan. 38 Therefore, the practice of polygamy is a controversial issue and raises pros and cons in society. 39 At the theoretical level, the term polygamy is not clearly stated but only concerns the status of a person who has more than one wife. It is stated in law number 1 of 1974, thus that marriage law in Indonesia adheres to the principle of monogamy, even in other aspects. 40 It allows the practice of polygamy with various conditions and certain procedures. Based on this view, the practice of polygamy requires requirements, not only the ability to act fairly but also to obtain the approval of the wife,41 as explained by Mochtar Kusumaatmadja, that the essence of law basically Khamami Zada et al.

In Bagir MananAos perspective, as an effort to realize justice, it can be achieved in a fairly too, with various parameters including. the certainty of rules, material on ideas and ideas of renewal that regulate the practice of polygamy, has been legally regulated in the Raqan of family law,43 in chapter VII article 37 paragraph 1 emphasizes that, a marriage is only allowed by having a wife and a wife is better to only have one person of husband. Whereas paragraph 2, based on the material content in the family law draft, substantially provides opportunities to practice polygamy with certain limitations, where a husband is only allowed to have more than one wife, with various requirements, namely having the ability both physically and mentally, and there is a guarantee to be fair. Thus, the thought regarding the renewal of the legal order of polygamy in the Raqan is understood as a form of dialectical relationship between justice and certainty in understanding the legal limits of polygamy,45 as stated by Antony Allot, regarding a legal limit that describes its function, among others. law is an abstract and philosophical provision. law is understood as a lower level than norms and positive law, as well as functioning as the golden bridge between idea and reality. law is understood as the lowest level and is concrete, as well as being part of the process of resulting consequences, so that a law can work well. 46 In this context, the certainty of a rule, which is the basis of legal validity can be through the power of rationality and then linked to the renewal of the legal order of polygamy contained in the Raqan based on various rules in the community.

Based on the various requirements, the Mahkamah SyarAoiyah can permit a husband to practice polygamy, rule certainty and protection for a husband to have polygamy by fulfilling one of the alternative requirements, as these provisions have been regulated in the Raqan family law in article 39 paragraphs 1 and 2. In this context, various provisions and requirements related to the practice of polygamy can be understood as a procedural rule and become the legal basis for the formation of procedural justice, while substantive justice can become the basis for consideration for the Mahkamah SyarAoiyah panel related to the outward ability to ensure the continuity of Second, institutional certainty, it is understood that the construction regarding the renewal of the legal order of polygamy contained in the family law Raqan is expected to have various rights and authorities under the Mahkamah SyarAoiyah in providing legal services to obtain legal certainty and protection following the powers and decisions issued by the Mahkamah SyarAoiyah.

In this context, reforms regarding the legal order of polygamy in raqan among the community Aceh is still a subject of discussion, this can be stated in a family Qanun, as https://e-journal. iain-palangkaraya. id/index. php/maslahah/index El-Mashlahah Volume 14 No. June 2024 a legal basis to legalize and avoid sirri marriages,48 thus the formation of polygamy rules is considered to have a positive impact among society, especially for women, as stated in Law Number 1 of 1974. PP No. 9 of 1975. PP No. 9 of 1983. PP No. 45 of 1990, and the compilation of Islamic law which has been the basis and provisions for the practice of polygamy. 49 The view, as also expressed by Cholil Nafis. Chair of the Indonesian Ulama Council DaAowah Commission, that the draft regarding the legal order for polygamy in the Raqan for the community Aceh,50 has even been substantially regulated by the Indonesian government through Law No. 1 of 1974 concerning marriage which was later changed to law No. 16 of 2019, that legally the practice of polygamy is actually legal and legal based on law No. 1 of 1974 and according to law on Al-QurAoan and al-Hadith. But, it does not mean that everyone can practice polygamy, so there is a need for a legal order for polygamy by providing various requirements and rules formulated by the government. At the practical level, the idea of reforming the legal order of polygamy in the draft Qanun, juridically has the same meaning as the MUI fatwa Number 17 of 2013. Moreover, the chairman of the Aceh Ulama Consultative Council supports the legalization of polygamy to be included in local government regulations through the draft Qanun. 52 Although the construction of reforms regarding the legal order of polygamy in the Raqan received reactions from various parties of pro and contra attitudes, those who are pro and against the illegality of polygamy will agree with the draft Qanun to be included in regional regulations.

Thus, the construction of the thought of the rule of law for polygamy in the raqan through the draft Qanun and local government policies can bring into various goodness . l-maslaha. both individually and socially. Meanwhile, in language, al-maslahah comes from the words salahu, yasluhu, salah, which is interpreted well, worthy, and Meanwhile, the word mursalah is interpreted as free, and not bound by religious arguments, both those originating from the QurAoan and al-Hadith. 56 In this reality, the idea of renewing polygamy law aims to regulate the practice of polygamy by covering rule certainty, institutional certainty, mechanism certainty, even time, and predictive Based on the view.

Theoretically, the reform of the rule of law in the raqan regarding the law of polygamy, according to Jumhur Ulama,59 is expected to be used as a source of Islamic law legislation, by fulfilling various requirements, including maslahah is expected to be understood in an essential way and truly brings benefits and rejects harm universally. Maslahah is expected to apply in general and does not conflict with the values of the QurAoan and al-Hadith, both physically and mentally. It is not even considered a benefit that is contradictory to the texts, such as equating the distribution of inheritance,60 between men and women. 61 Thus, the construction of the legal order of polygamy in the family law practice for the Acehnese people is the implementation of the results of the dielectric between the thought of orderly law, adherence to Islamic law, and local law. Polygamy Law Reform Through the Development of the Aceh Qanun as a New Approach to Protecting the Rights of Women and Children in Indonesia Practically, the construction of polygamy law reform is essentially built through various local government policies, which are then interpreted as raqan, and are essentially used as local laws in the community. Aceh, in practicing polygamy, is also one of the areas that can apply Islamic law. The view, although the practice of polygamy still reaps a lot of controversies because it is assumed as a form of injustice and social discrimination against women. However, some also support the legalization of polygamy under the umbrella of the law with various terms and conditions because there is no reason to refuse polygamy when it fulfilled various predetermined Ahyar Ari Gayo.

Ahmad Musthofa al-Maraghi stated several criteria of polygamy, such as the wife being infertile, the husband having high sex,63 having wealth, having capability to finance all the interests of his family, and the number of women exceeding 64 Based on this fact, a thought is needed in developing Islamic law reform that regulates the rules for implementing polygamy through local government policies (Raqa. as outlined in the family Qanun. With the legalization of the practice of polygamy,65 it is hoped that there will be no more sirri marriages which are considered to be detrimental to women.

Moreover. Aceh is an autonomous region that has various privileges in carrying out and implementing Islamic Sharia in Therefore, the construction of Islamic law reform that regulates the practice of polygamy through the family Qanun has strong legality and legal sources, even though the regulation of the Qanun in the family can lead to pro and contra attitudes in society. Moreover, the substance of polygamy law, as outlined in the regional Qanun, has several points in common with Legislation Number 1 of 1974 on marriage. Meanwhile, the regulation of Qanun in local government policies specifically legalizes the practice of polygamy with various predetermined requirements. And, technically, it must first apply for approval from the Mahkamah SyarAoiyah. Conclusion In the construction of polygamy law reform through the draft Qanun, a dialectical relationship between marriage law, the compilation of Islamic law, and local law is built through the internalization of the values of the Qur'an and al-Hadith. This relationship became the basis for the formation of the Aceh Qanun as a family law that regulates the practice of polygamy through regional government policy. The draft Qanun is intended to protect women's rights and prevent unregistered marriages and child abandonment. The legality and strong legal sources in the family Qanun give rise to pro and con attitudes in society, which becomes the implementation of legal order reform between obedience to Islamic law and state law. This reform is a model for the polygamy legal order to realize the benefit of society and protect the rights of women and children, which are not yet regulated in the marriage law in Indonesia. The process of determining Qanun by the regional government must meet the requirements and be submitted to the Aceh Mahkamah SyarAoiyah for technical approval. Andi Muhammad Asrun.
