Abstract
Abstract: Most of Thailand Moslem community live at the plateau of its South area. As the minority, they cannot perform sharia laws formally under official acknowledgment. Therefore, in practicing the law, particularly marriage settlement, they rely on the rules of fiqh school followed by each local Datok Imam Masjid. The Datok exists in every village even sub-village and is a delegation from the Committee of Islam at Province. However, The Committee does not arrange particular rules in the marriage settlement so that the practice is fully guided and handled by the Datok. This research uses qualitative approach through descriptive method. It finds that principles and requirements of marriage settlement are in line with common Islamic laws in the Qur’an and hadith. Most of South Thailand Datok serving as penghulu (staffs of marriage settlement) furthermore affiliate to Shafi’i school. However, as each datok has different views and beliefs on certain issues, the rules become too flexible such as the minimum age for the brides and bridegrooms or the existence of walī (Islamic guardian mainly from the family line) as the marriage requirement. Additionally, the marriage settlement with a newly converted Muslim and “free” polygamy are two big issues as there found no exact rule governing all the details. The settlement is also sometimes often hard to hold due to expensive request of mahr (dowry) which causes the high number of eloping cases. Keywords: Islamic Law; Marriage Settlement; South Thailand Moslem, Datok Abstrak: Sebagian besar Muslim Thailand hidup di daerah Selatan dataran tinggi. Sebagai minoritas, mereka tidak dapat mempraktikkan aturan syariah secara resmi yang diakui negara, termasuk dalam pernikahan. Oleh karenanya, pernikahan dilaksanakan berdasarkan peraturan mazhab fiqh yang diikuti masing-masing Datok Imam Masjid. Datok ini terdapat di setiap desa, bahkan kampung, dan merupakan utusan Komite Islam Provinsi yang berwenang mengurus berbagai urusan keagamaan. Karena Komite Islam Thailand sendiri juga tidak menetapkan aturan pasti tentang pernikahan, Datok-lah yang dalam praktiknya mengarahkan dan menangani urusan ini. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dan metode deskriptif. Hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa prinsip dan rukun pernikahan ala Datok sudah sesuai dengan hukum Islam di Al-Qur’an dan hadist. Selain itu, sebagian besar Datok yang menjadi juru nikah diketahui bermazhab Syafi’i. Meski demikian, perbedaan pengetahuan dan sikap masing-masing Datok terhadap isu-isu tertentu menyebabkan longgarnya aturan dalam pernikahan, seperti usia minimal kedua calon mempelai dan keberadaan wali sebagai syarat pernikahan. Termasuk juga di antaranya adalah pernikahan dengan muallaf serta maraknya pernikahan poligami tanpa adanya batasan khusus. Selain itu, pelaksanaan pernikahan seringkali terhambat oleh permintaan jumlah mahar yang tinggi sehingga menyebabkan banyaknya kasus kawin lari.
