Sleman Regency, a region with the highest Human Development Index (HDI) in DIY as well as relatively high divorce and domestic violence rates, serves as a crucial locus where Muslim women have begun to renegotiate their timing for marriage. The primary problems in this study are why Muslim women in Sleman Regency choose to delay marriage, the factors underlying these decisions, and how this phenomenon is viewed from the perspective of the sociology of Islamic law. This study aims to capture the paradigm shift among women regarding the institution of marriage amidst the currents of modernity and urban social dynamics. This research employs a descriptive qualitative method with a sociology of law approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with Muslim women informants who are currently delaying marriage, observation, and documentation studies. The theoretical framework used is the sociology of Islamic law according to M. Atho Mudzhar, which emphasizes the interaction between legal products and socio-political contexts, as well as the concept of Maqāṣid asy-Syarī'ah. Analysis was conducted by linking field findings regarding the social reality of women in Sleman with the principles of Islamic law to observe how Islamic law is practiced dynamically as a response to changes in social and economic structures. The results indicate that the background of delayed marriage is triggered by the academic atmosphere of Sleman as a "City of Education" and collective trauma resulting from high rates of marital failure in the surrounding environment. Key driving factors include a priority on higher education, the desire for financial independence, psychological readiness to avoid domestic violence, and kafa’ah (compatibility) criteria that now place greater emphasis on emotional maturity. From the perspective of the sociology of Islamic law, this phenomenon is a form of personal ijtihad by women in pursuing a more substantial benefit (jalb almaslahah). Delaying marriage aligns with the principles of Maqāṣid asy-Syarī'ah, particularly the protection of intellect (ḥifẓ al-’aql), life (ḥifẓ an-nafs), and progeny (ḥifẓ an-nasl), serving as a preventive measure (sadd adz-dzari'ah) to avert future household breakdown.346.01 Hukum Keluarga - Hukum Pernikahan2026-01-19UIN SUNAN KALIJAGA YOGYAKARTA;FAKULTAS SYARIAH DAN HUKUMThesis
