KESIAPAN MENIKAH DALAM PERSPEKTIF PSIKOLOGI PENDIDIKAN ISLAM

Abstract

Marriage is an important stage in a person's life according to Islamic teachings. In the context of educational psychology, marriage readiness involves psychological aspects such as emotional maturity, mental stability, independence, and understanding the roles and responsibilities as a husband or wife. From an Islamic religious perspective, readiness to marry also includes an understanding of spiritual values, religious responsibilities, as well as readiness to build a harmonious household based on Islamic teachings. Understanding this perspective can help individuals make the right decisions and prepare themselves well before entering into marriage. This research aims to determine readiness for marriage from the psychological perspective of Islamic religious education and to determine factors of readiness for marriage. The research method used was using qualitative research methods with a library model. The stages in analyzing data are doing it by reducing data, presenting data, and drawing conclusions. The researcher reduced the literature on marriage readiness from the psychological perspective of Islamic religious education, then explained it systematically. The final stage is drawing conclusions from critical analysis. The results of this research are: Don't marry just because you fall in love. Get married because you believe that Allah Ta'ala's heaven is closer to him. Marriage is the longest worship, make sure you have the knowledge to carry it out. Getting married is easy, it's just that the mind complicates it because of fears about marriage, especially financial matters. Meanwhile, the factors that need to be prepared are spiritual, physical, psychological and material moral maturity.
