The Sakinah Clap phenomenon first caught the public's attention after videos of its implementation during Marriage Guidance at KUA went viral on TikTok. This movement is an initiative by the Ministry of Religious Affairs to convey important messages about marriage in an interactive way. The goal is to make the message about a harmonious family easier to accept and remember for prospective brides and grooms.
Netizens' responses to the Sakinah Clap phenomenon are very diverse, even tending to panic prospective brides and grooms. Many worry about not memorizing the movements or lyrics, believing that the Sakinah Clap is a mandatory requirement before the marriage vows. TikTok videos show anxious prospective brides and grooms practicing, highlighting widespread misunderstandings.
In response to the unrest that occurred, the Ministry of Religious Affairs immediately provided an official clarification regarding the Sakinah Clap Phenomenon. The Director of KUA and the Sakinah Family at the Ministry, Zainal Fatah, emphasized that the Sakinah Clap is merely a learning medium. Prospective brides and grooms are not required to memorize or practice it as a condition for marriage.
The Ministry of Religious Affairs created the Sakinah Clap Phenomenon with a very noble goal, namely to reduce the divorce rate in Indonesia. The Marriage Guidance Program (Bimwin) as a whole, including the Sakinah Clap, is designed to equip prospective brides and grooms. They are expected to have sufficient knowledge and skills to build a harmonious and lasting family.
Statistical data shows that the divorce rate in Indonesia is indeed quite concerning and continues to rise each year. In 2022, there were 516,344 recorded divorce cases, a significant increase from 447,743 cases in 2021. The Central Statistics Agency (BPS) even recorded 15.75 divorce cases per 1,000 married residents in 2022.
The lyrics of the Tepuk Sakinah phenomenon are designed to be simple yet full of meaning, easy to remember for prospective brides and grooms. Here are the complete lyrics that are often sung in the Kemenag Bimwin program:
Each lyric and movement in the Tepuk Sakinah phenomenon has a profound philosophical meaning related to the purpose of marriage. The phrase "Sakinah, mawaddah, warahmah" is central, symbolizing peace of mind, love, and affection that are hoped for in a household. Values such as faithfulness, honesty, patience, and responsibility are also emphasized as important foundations. This movement also encourages attitudes of mutual respect, complementing, and praying for each other among partners.
Overall, the Tepuk Sakinah phenomenon functions as a mnemonic or enjoyable reminder tool for engaged couples. It is a creative way for the Ministry of Religious Affairs to convey fundamental values in building a household. The goal is to create a lasting and harmonious family in accordance with religious teachings, as well as to support the Marriage Guidance program of the Ministry of Religious Affairs.
