This dual burden often leads members of the sandwich generation to postpone marriage. This phenomenon of marriage postponement has a significant impact on the shift in the average age of marriage, particularly in rural communities, including Sonorejo Village. Many individuals in Sonorejo Village are forced to postpone marriage beyond the ideal standards and societal norms regarding marriage age due to the priority of family economic stability. The central issues of this study are why the sandwich generation in Sonorejo Village chooses to postpone marriage, what factors underlie this decision, and how this phenomenon is viewed from the perspective of Islamic legal sociology and maqāṣid as-syarī'ah. This study aims to understand the phenomenon of marriage postponement as a form of the sandwich generation’s social response to changes in family structure, economic pressures, and societal patterns. This field research is descriptive-analytical in nature, using a normativesociological approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with members of the sandwich generation who have decided to postpone marriage, as well as through documentary analysis. The theoretical framework used is the theory of Islamic legal sociology according to M. Atho Mudzhar, which emphasizes the interaction between legal texts and social reality, as well as the concept of maqāṣid as-syarī'ah. The qualitative analysis was conducted by linking field findings regarding the social reality of the sandwich generation in Sonorejo Village with the principles of Islamic law, in order to understand the dynamics of the application of Islamic law in responding to changes in the social and economic structure of society. The research findings indicate that the delay in marriage among the sandwich generation in Sonorejo Village is driven by several factors, namely: the desire to prepare oneself, both financially and emotionally; not yet having found the right partner; and the priority of meeting family needs first. From the perspective of Islamic legal sociology, this phenomenon constitutes a form of personal ijtihad by the sandwich generation as a rational consideration to avoid greater harm. This delay in marriage is also consistent with the principles of Maqāṣid as-Syarī'ah, particularly the protection of life (ḥifẓ an-nafs), reason (ḥifẓ al-’aql), lineage (ḥifẓ an-nasl), and property (ḥifẓ al-māl) as a preventive measure to ensure household stability and prevent potential harm in the future. 2026-05-21 Thesis NonPeerReviewed text id https://digilib.uin-suka.ac.id/id/eprint/76932/1/22103050006_BAB-I_IV-atau-V_DAFTAR-PUSTAKA.pdf text id https://digilib.uin-suka.ac.id/id/eprint/76932/2/22103050006_BAB-II_sampai_SEBELUM-BAB-TERAKHIR.pdf Iqbal Maulana Ahmad, NIM.: 22103050006 (2026) TINJAUAN SOSIOLOGI HUKUM ISLAM DAN MAQASHID SYARIAH TERHADAP PENUNDAAN PERNIKAHAN PADA GENERASI SANDWICH DI DESA SONOREJO KECAMATAN BLORA KABUPATEN BLORA.
