Abstract:
Religious conversion carried out by one of the couples in marriage has various
legal consequences, especially in marriages that take place under Islamic law.
One of the legal consequences that can arise is the annulment of marriage
(fasakh) by the Religious Court because the legal requirements for marriage
according to religious law are not met. The annulment of the marriage not only
has an impact on the legal status of the husband and wife, but also has
implications for the division of joint property obtained during the marriage
bond. This study aims to analyze the legal consequences of marriage annulment
because one of the couples changes religion and the mechanism of sharing joint
property after the annulment of the marriage. The research method used is
normative legal research with a regulatory approach and a conceptual approach.
Law Number 1 of 1974 concerning Marriage and Compilation of Islamic Law.
Thus, even if the marriage is declared null and void, the civil rights of the parties
still receive legal protection.
