N2  - One of the issues in Islamic marriage law, discussed among
scholars since the classical period, is that of kafa'ah. Views differ,
with some scholars arguing that kafa'ah is one of requirements
for a marriage's validity, with invalidity resulting from its nonfulfillment.
Others see kafa'ah only as a recommendation for the
sustainability of family life and harmony between husband and
wife. On this view, the validity of a marriage is not determined
by kafa'ah. A related issue is that of qualifications, about which
scholars also disagree. The Hanafi school, for instance, stated
six qualifications of kafa'ah, Syafi'i five qualifications, while Maliki
only three. This paper investigates these issues of status and
qualifications, both from classical and contemporary points of
view, after discussing the meaning, basis and origins of the
concept of kafa'ah in Islamic marriage law. It will be shown that
differing points of view as to the status of kafa'ah result from
differing understandings of the basis of kafa'ah. Similarly, the
differing views as to the qualifications can be explained by the
different contexts (spatial and temporal) of the relevant scholars.
