Here are 7 Facts About the Marriage of Mahalini and Rizky Febian Being Declared Invalid

Kapanlagi.com - The South Jakarta Religious Court has just made a surprising decision regarding the marriage validation request of Rizky Febian and Mahalini. The marriage of this couple, which had attracted public attention, was declared invalid, both legally and religiously. This decision was based on the failure to meet one of the marriage conditions stipulated in Islamic law.

This decision has drawn public attention as it reveals details that were previously rarely known. One point that has come under scrutiny is the status of Mahalini as a convert who had only embraced Islam two days before the marriage. This affected the validity of the marriage guardian in the process, which turned out to not meet the requirements according to the law.

The spokesperson for the South Jakarta Religious Court, H. Suryana, provided a detailed explanation regarding the basis for this decision. He emphasized that although the couple did not intend to violate the rules, the law must still be upheld according to the applicable regulations. So, what are the next steps for Rizky Febian and Mahalini?

The panel of judges at the South Jakarta Religious Court has ruled that the marriage between Rizky Febian and Mahalini is invalid. This is due to the failure to meet one of the conditions of marriage, namely the validity of the marriage guardian.

H. Suryana explained that the guardian who married Mahalini was not a rightful guardian. According to Islamic rules, the guardian must be a nasab guardian or a judge guardian appointed legally by the KUA, in accordance with the established criteria.

Mahalini converted to Islam just two days before the marriage contract with Rizky Febian. Since her biological father is non-Muslim, he cannot act as a nasab guardian.

In such cases, a judge guardian is usually appointed to replace the role of the nasab guardian. However, in this marriage, the process of appointing the judge guardian was deemed not in accordance with the applicable legal provisions.

3. Marriage Involving a Ustaz as the Wali Hakim

In the marriage contract process, a ustaz acts as the wali hakim. However, the panel of judges found that the appointment of the wali hakim did not meet the procedures set out in the law.

H. Suryana added that a wali hakim can only be appointed if the wali nasab is absent or their whereabouts are unknown. In this case, the process needs to be carried out according to legal procedures to avoid violations.
