Abstract

Abstract: In modern society, many symptoms of a quasi broken home are found in a family. This results in communication between children and parents being disturbed, the family becoming disharmonious and children's attitudes tending to become naughty. The aims of this research are (1) to determine children's rights in quasi broken homes in West Langsa District, (2) to determine the perspective of Islamic law and Law Number 35 of 2014 on the practice of fulfilling children's rights in quasi broken homes in West Langsa District and (3) to determine the similarities and differences between the perspective of Islamic law and Law Number 35 of 2014 regarding the practice of fulfilling children's rights in quasi broken homes in West Langsa District. This research uses a normative empirical approach and the type of research is field research. To obtain data, researchers used observation, interviews and documentation methods. The results of this research show that (1) children's rights in quasi broken homes in West Langsa District are not implemented well because parents are busy at work. (2) The perspective of Islamic law and Law Number 35 of 2014 on the practice of fulfilling children's rights in quasi broken homes in West Langsa District, namely in fulfilling the right to life, the right to education, the right to voice and participate and the right to fulfill identity and inheritance has been fulfilled properly. However, children's rights related to protection from violence have not been fulfilled properly and children's rights related to the provision of love and care are also not fulfilled properly because parents are busy. (3) The similarities and differences between the perspective of Islamic law and Law Number 35 of 2014 regarding the practice of fulfilling children's rights in a quasi broken home in West Langsa District can be seen in the fulfillment of children's education where in Islamic law children's education consists of formal education which is worldly in nature and religious education, whereas in Law Number 35 of 2014 it is only limited to education adapted to the child's talents and interests. Apart from that, another difference lies in Law Number 35 of 2014 which also states the child's right to be able to be cared for by someone other than their parents.
