Penghulu as marriage registration officials have a strategic role in understanding and explaining the forms of dowry that develop in the community. This research aims to identify variations in the form of dowry in Merauke Regency from the perspective of the Penghulu, and analyze this phenomenon through Lawrence M. Friedman's legal system approach which includes aspects of legal substance, structure and culture. The method used is field research with conceptual, historical, normative, and phenomenological approaches. The results show that the form of dowry in Merauke varies greatly, ranging from gold jewelry, precious metals, cash, a set of prayer tools, to a combination of other forms of dowry.

This finding confirms that dowry is not just a symbol of marriage, but also a living reflection of law that is adaptive to the social and cultural realities of a multicultural society.

This study aims to examine the clarity of the legal status of interfaith couples in the perspective of Islamic law and national law in Indonesia, and analyze the normative conflicts that arise between the two. The approach used is a normative juridical approach with data collection techniques in the form of literature study of legislation, religious fatwas, and relevant scientific literature. The results show that national law through Law Number 1 Year 1974 does not explicitly regulate the legality of interfaith marriages, giving rise to legal uncertainty. Meanwhile, the majority of Islamic law rejects this practice because it is considered contrary to the values of sharia. The conflict between the two creates a legal dilemma that affects the marital status and civil rights of the couple and the children born. This research recommends the importance of harmonization between religious and state law through regulatory reform and increased dialogue between state institutions and religious authorities to create a more just and inclusive legal system.
