husband-wife relations , Qs. Al-Nisa: 34, interpretationAbstract
The fact that in society there are married women who work and have careers outside the home, raises debates in the interpretation of verses related to husband-wife relations. The purpose of this research is to reveal how NU and Muhammadiyah theologians interpret verses about husband-wife relations and the factors that influence these interpretations. The approach used in this research is a normative-sociological approach to highlight the views and ideas of NU and Muhammadiyah theologians about husband-wife relations. The use of a normative approach is to examine husband-wife relations in the verses of the Qur’an about husband-wife relations. Meanwhile, the sociological approach is used to see the views of theologians from Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) and Muhammadiyah circles about husband-wife relations as an interpretation of the verses of the Qur’an about husband-wife relations. For the purposes of analysis, the theory of Sociology of interpretation is used which refers to the view of Peter L Berger who states that the reality and knowledge that a person obtains are not given for free but are a dialect process between that person and the social reality that surrounds him which is then constructed into a text (interpretation). The research found that the interpretation of the NU and Muhammadiyah theologians of Salatiga and Surakarta regarding the shurah an-Nisa’[4];34 and al-Ahzab [33];33 did not have a problem with wives working and having careers outside the home as long as they obtained permission from their husbands.
