Abstract

The purpose of this research is to explore the regulation related to the problem of marital rape in Indonesian legislation, especially after the enactment of the new Criminal Code Law by using the perspective of fiqh jinayah on family. This research is a doctrinal study with a conceptual approach and a legislative approach. Based on the research conducted, several conclusions can be formulated: First, marital rape that occurs in the household can be classified as a criminal offence of sexual violence. In addition, the regulation of marital rape in Indonesia is not yet specific and integrated so that it is still scattered in various regulations. Secondly, based on the perspective of fiqh jinayah, marital rape is included in the category of jarimah ta'zir because it is related to human honour. In the perspective of family jinayah fiqh, marital rape is also not justified and is an injustice according to Islam. Some sanctions in jinayah fiqh that can be applied to perpetrators of marital rape include diyat and ta'zir.
