Abstract

. A marriage certificate is authentic evidence for a husband or wife when one party neglects their obligations. Thus, a marriage without a marriage certificate has no legal protection. Contemporary nikah siri is a term for marriages performed without registration. The growing practice of nikah siri prompted the government to take decisive action to spur people to register their marriages. However, the birth of this formulation contains pros and cons. This research is a library research, the primary data source of this research is Hadith related to nikah siri. While the book fiqh munakahat and several books that discuss methodology including the opinions of scholars related to the hadith in this discussion are placed as secondary sources, including related writings. The data collected will then be presented using the descriptive analysis method. Based on the hadith, it is known that at the time of the prophet it was important to hold a walimah as a means of announcing the marriage. However, in this day and age, a marriage certificate is required to maintain the marriage under a legal umbrella. Therefore, illegal marriage is not allowed. Seeing the maqashid al-syari'ah desired by the law of nikah siri, making the sanction of nikah siri is at the level of hajiyyah to maintain nasl. Although there are already clear regulations, the benefits of marriage registration, there are still many phenomena of this nikah siri in society for various reasons. So to eliminate this phenomenon requires government involvement in establishing sanctions for the perpetrators.
