Abstract
Marital Age Arrangement as ruled by UU Perkawinan and KHI is part of open legal policy
category and has legal validity according to regulation of Constitutional Court (Mahkamah
Konsitusi). Nevertheless, legal policy must be positioned unexceeding authority, unbreaking
morality and rationality of law, not to impact intolerable injustices, and not clearly
contradicting Indonesian Constitution (UUD) 1945. Hence, relating to questioning phrases in
article 7 verse 1 “in 16 years old” as part of Marital Law N. 1/1974. The Constitutional Court on
its court decision explains that that provision is has not binding legal force. This decision has
implicated obligation of equalizating minimum age of marriage (both male and female). Then,
what is maqasid al-usrah thought on this decision? To answer that question, this research will
explain criteria of adulthood from Islamic Law perspective and maqasid al-usrah thought on
equalizating minimum age of marrige, both male or female. Islamic Law, throught its concept
of baligh and `aqil, has opinion that measure of adulthood (both male and female) is same, where
they have reached 15 years of age. Biologically, male is considered adult when he released
sperm firstly. And female is considered adult when she menstruasting for the first time, or her
sense of smell is more sensitive, or changing vocal sound, or growing some hair around her
vagina and on armpits. Equalizating marital age between man and woman is justified based on
maqasid al-usrah and Islamically legal as long as its purpose is implementing the marital goals
