Marriage In The Perspective Of Quran Education

Abstract

Marriage is "aqad which justifies association and limits rights and obligations as well as mutual assistance between a man and a woman who are both not muhrim (Sulai-manRasyid, 1973: 355). According to Islamic law, the definition of marriage is an agreement to legitimize sexual relations and bear children. According to Ushul experts of the Shafi'i group, marriage is a contract by which sexual relations between a man and a woman become lawful. This group views that the marriage contract is an aqad of worship, namely allowing a husband to have intercourse with his wife (Fahri, 1984:61-62). The above understanding is guided by the Word of Allah SWT in the Qur'an Surah An-Nisa Verse 3
