Pandangan Masyarakat Terhadap Larangan Pernikahan Adik Dan Kakak Kandung Di Tahun Yang Sama Dalam Perspektif Hukum Islam

Abstrak

This study investigates the local belief held by the community of Erelembang Village, Tombolo Pao District, Gowa Regency regarding the prohibition of siblings—an older and younger brother or sister—from getting married in the same year, a practice believed to bring misfortune. The research aims to understand how the community perceives this prohibition and how Islamic law evaluates such a belief. Using a qualitative method with an ethnographic approach, the study was conducted in Erelembang Village with data obtained from both primary and secondary sources. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, and were analyzed through stages of coding, data presentation, and conclusion drawing and verification. The findings show that this tradition, although practiced as a form of respect toward parents, is classified in uṣūl al-fiqh as ‘urf fāsid (a corrupt custom) because it has no basis in Islamic teachings and contradicts the principle that the original ruling for worldly matters is permissibility. The belief is further categorized as ṭiyarah, a type of superstition prohibited in Islam and one that may lead to minor shirk. Therefore, the study emphasizes the importance of aligning cultural traditions with Islamic principles and correcting practices that conflict with the foundations of Islamic creed.
