PSYCHOLOGICAL SKILL ASSISTANCE FOR MARRIED COUPLES WHO ARE ALUMNI OF PRE-MARITAL COURSES AT BP4 - PARIAMAN CITY

This paper aims to see how far BP4 Pariaman City has a role in strengthening human psycho-social in the field of social welfare; services for alumni of post-marriage couples need to be followed up with a balanced program. The lack of psycho-social understanding of pre-marital post-marriage course graduates will have great potential to add to the long line of early marriage ages in Pariaman City. The fundamental problem that is most troubling is their ignorance of the responsibilities, rights and obligations of husband and wife in the household. To overcome this solution, the service team identified the problem of spaciousness. It mapped the problem to be treated (treatment) for the subject of service through two stages: family psychology guidance and Islamic family counseling. The first stage is pre-activity in the form of a Focus Discussion Group (FGD) presenting lecturers as participants to provide input for the mentoring action plan to be carried out. The second stage is action activities, including psychological skill assistance in family psychology and group counseling. This activity has generally received appreciation from stakeholders (BP4 Pariaman City management, pre-marital course alumni) because this program has offered various alternatives for their self-development in elaborating their knowledge to be applied in household life. The results of the reflection and evaluation of the program offered by the service conclude that they understand that a sakinah mawaddah wa rahmah household life is not achieved by material wealth but by the ability to accept oneself and have a correct understanding of an Islamic household. They understand that household problems cannot be measured only by logic. However, it includes religious and spiritual matters the human mind cannot reach. Therefore, they understand that household responsibilities are worldly matters and matters of the afterlife, which are related to God.

Falling Out of Love: Divorce of Three Acehnese Ubanan Couples in the Islamic Law Perspective

“The most hated of permissible things to Allāh the Exalted is divorce”—this Prophetic tradition is narrated by AbūDāwūd and Ibn Mājah. Yet divorce is now on the rise in Aceh where Islamic Sharī‘ah is supposedly being implemented; there were 6,823 divorce cases in the province during the first ten months of 2022, with most proposed by young couples. This study examines divorce in mature families aged fifty and above, who have been married for many years in the perspective of Islamic law. We analyze their marriage and the nature of their life leading to divorce, the reasons for falling out of love, and the impact of separation on their well-being and on their loved ones. We review the Islamic sources and academic literature about marriage and divorce, the government and media reports for statistics, and we interview three couples along with several of their children in order to obtain insights into their experience. We uncover the complexity surrounding marriage and divorce, as well as religious, social, and personal reasons guiding their action or non-action. The study recommends that governments and religious institutions implement premarital courses as a condition of marriage so that divorce rates can be reduced. Such policies must be accompanied by meaningful and well-funded national government programs to save the institution of marriage and be able to maintain family cohesion in Indonesia.

Based on the research conducted, the following results and conclusions were obtained: first, the implementation of the course for prospective brides at KUA, Jambi Outer City District, was carried out following the regulations made by the Director General of Islamic Community Guidance, but the implementation was not optimal. The two supporting factors in the implementation of this pre-marital course are the strategic location of the KUA, the existence of a place to carry out pre-marital courses, the presence of speakers and the presence of participants who take part in the implementation of suscatin, and the inhibiting factor in the implementation of this pre-marital course is the large number of people who do not know about the importance following this activity and the large number of people who are indifferent to the rules made by the Director General of Islamic Community Guidance regarding the obligation to take part in the implementation of this pre-marital course, so that many people are lazy and often arrive late when the course for future brides is carried out. The third impact of implementing the bride and groom course is that the participants from the implementation of the bride and groom course gain knowledge and experience that they have never previously known and the knowledge they gain during the training they practice in their household life, so that the household life they get it now to be a sakinah, mawaddah and rahmah family.

Attitudes of prospective spouses towards moral principles regulating procreative behaviors

The ability of transmission life is a precious gift for both spouses and society as a whole. This gift is protected by moral principles that show the need to reject anything that goes against responsible parenting. However, it can be noticed that when some people appreciate the possibilities of reproduction and living in harmony with their own sexuality and fertility, others struggle with it. They do not recognize fertile and infertile days of the cycle, but eliminate fertility through contraceptives and even allow abortion. In the case of problems with conception, some decide to undergo in vitro fertilization, regardless of the instrumentalisation and medicalization of procreation, the death of some embryos as part of the procedures undertaken, or the possible negative health effects.
 The article consisting of three parts regres 1.x1qto passages from Holy Scripture and numerous documents of the Catholic Church on procreation and moral principles in the field of transmitting human life. In this way, it answers the question 'how should it be?'. The answer to the question 'how is it?' becomes possible thanks to the research, especially prepared for this purpose, questionnaire: Attitudes towards marital and family morality. The respondents were people preparing for marriage as part of courses organized by parishes in villages near Lublin. It would seem that the inhabitants of smaller towns pay more attention to the opinions of others than the anonymous inhabitants of cities, and it is conducive to maintaining moral norms and living in accordance with them. However, the polls of a large part of the respondents indicate serious discrepancies between the indications of the Catholic Church and the attitudes expressed. Although the vast majority define themselves as 'believers' and 'definitely believers', more than half of them perform religious practices: 'irregularly', 'once in a blue Moon', or not at all. Many people reveal references to procreation that are inconsistent with the moral principles proclaimed by the Church. This situation requires an answer to the question: 'what ought you do to make things as it should be?' The opportunity and hope for recovery is the program implemented as part of the premarital course for brides nad grooms, as well as the knowledge, skills and commitment of the priests and family life counselors who lead it. You can see how important and responsible they have a task to fulfill. However, it also seems necessary to extend this responsibility to the whole of society. So that, thanks to the earlier, morally correct and family-oriented education of clients, priests and counselors would not have to make up for the lost time or correct someone's mistakes.

PENCEGAHAN HIV DAN AIDS MELALUI KURSUS PRA NIKAH DALAM PERSPEKTIF ISLAM DAN SAINS

The HIV epidemic has been present in Indonesia for the past twenty years, despite various prevention efforts. However, the trend is very concerning, so it is critical to innovate in the prevention of HIV-AIDS, particularly through sexual transmission, as the rate of increase is very rapid.

Teaching and learning facilities for organizing pre-marital courses include syllabus, modules, and other teaching materials required for learning. The syllabus and modules prepared by the Ministry of Religion for pre-marital course organizers can be correlated with material on HIV and the importance of Counseling and Testing on Health Officer Initiation (KTIP) and Voluntary Counseling and Testing (KTS), both of which are critical components in efforts to prevent HIV transmission. Furthermore, it can deepen material that synergizes with the purpose of marriage, namely forming a sakinah family and avoiding HIV, namely option B (Be Faithful), meaning being mutually loyal to one sex partner, and if the test result is positive, you can still get married then use option C (Condom).

O-188 Participation in a video-based fertility awareness program advances the desire to have children sooner

Abstract Study question Participating in a fertility awareness program accelerates the intention to have children 6 to 12 months after video- fertility awareness? Summary answer In combination with positive childbearing motivation, those in the video condition anticipated their intentions to have children at 6-12 months follow-up What is known already Fertility awareness education and initiatives have been focused on increasing fertility awareness and knowledge. However, the role of fertility awareness on reproductive decisions is less explored in literature. There are few studies showing that participating in fertility awareness education is related to higher intentions to have children or decreased time until trying to conceive regarding beforehand planned. Since intentions seem to be a good predictor of behaviour, we were interested in exploring the variables which might predict higher intentions to have children after participating in a fertility awareness education study based on a video intervention Study design, size, duration This study is part of a randomised controlled trial initiated in October 2016. Participants were randomly allocated into the intervention (IG) and control group (CG) at baseline (TO). The follow-up was evaluated 6 to 12 months later. IG participants were exposed to a 5-min video delivering information on age-related fertility decline, infertility risk factors, and pregnancy chances after having filled-in the T0 questionnaire: Participants in CG received no stimulus. Participants/materials, setting, methods Three hundred sixty-five individuals (65% women) were recruited through social media, gynaecology clinics, and religious pre-marital courses. From those, 128 responded to follow-up (between 6 and 12 months). Childbearing Motivation Scale (positive and negative) and a question about childbearing timing intentions were used. Regression analysis was conducted to explore the role of video intervention and childbearing motivation on childbearing timing intention. Main results and the role of chance Participants were, on average, 29.5 years old (SD = 5.13). From baseline to 6-12 months later, participants significantly anticipated their desire to have children (p<.005). Correlations showed that childbearing timing intention was positively and significantly associated with the following subscales of the positive motivations: personal fulfilment, continuity, and couple relationship; negative motivations were not associated with the childbearing timing intention. The regression analysis revealed that only the childbearing motivation regarding couple relationship (having a child would strengthening partnership ties, fulfilling partner’s project, growing as a couple, fulfilling a shared project) and the visualization of the educational video significantly contributed to predicting at follow-up the increased desire to have children sooner at follow-up. Limitations, reasons for caution Other factors, not considered, might contribute to the prediction of childbearing motivation timing. Although we had randomly allocated people to CG and IG, the high attrition rate may limit the generalization of our results. Wider implications of the findings This study seems to indicate that watching an educational video about fertility awareness might contribute to a significant change in childbearing timing. In addition, the importance of the couple relationship is highlighted. These findings reinforce the importance to assist people with informed reproductive decisions in social and healthcare settings.
