Abstract
The absence of an iddah period for husbands after divorce or the death of their wives means that husbands can remarry. However, when this is not carried out with social ethical considerations, it can cause problems. This qualitative study aims to identify the thoughts of Wahbah al-Zuḥaylī, a contemporary Syrian Islamic law expert, on the concept of siyibh al-‘iddah (resembling iddah) for men through the maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah approach. This type of normative-philosophical Islamic legal research uses data from literature studies with a content analysis approach. The results of the study show that Wahbah al-Zuḥaylī's epistemological basis for the concept of syibhul iddah can be understood as an instrument for safeguarding benefits in the aspects of ḥifẓ al-nasl (protection of lineage), ḥifẓ al-nafs (protection of life and psychological well-being), and ḥifẓ al-'ird (protection of dignity). This study contributes to the assertion that divorce is not merely the end of a formal Islamic legal bond, but also a social event that requires consideration of various legal consequences.
