Marriage is a social interaction that has the value of worship. Marriage is not only about two people but also two families. As soon as the marriage contract was pronounced, 'Arsy was shaken by the enormity of the transfer of trust from the woman's parents to her husband's shoulders. So it is not surprising that Allah calls it a heavy and strong bond (mīṡāqan ghalīẓan). This type of research is library research, qualitative research methods and documentation techniques which are based on the interpretation of al-Mishbah by Indonesian scholars, namely Quraish Shihab and other sources which discuss mīṡāqan ghalīẓan in marriage. In the results of this research, Quraish Shihab uses the concept of munāsabah al-ayat by quoting another verse that mentions mīṡāqan ghalīẓan, namely equating a strong agreement in religion with a strong agreement in marriage and the obligation to maintain that bond. In reviewing fiqh, Quraish Shihab emphasizes fiqh by explaining the prohibition on taking dowry unless it has been proven to be fāḥisyah.
