A Bad Fate for Politicians and Officials Who Are Illiterate About the Law

Political figures like RK (formerly YZ) often suffer because they are not gentlemen.
If we return to the provisions of Islamic law, not the Civil Code (KUHPdt), then RK has the right to declare Aura Kasih, Mariana, and so on as his wives.
Learn from the great Bung, BK, who had wives like U bt Cokro A, I G, F, H, A, KM, and so on, and even more than nine.
It is true that husbands and wives have the right to privacy, which stems from religious teachings and societal norms.
Therefore, for Indonesian Muslims and indigenous communities, it is necessary to review Law No. 1 of 1974 concerning marriage, regarding relevant norms that should be reapplied prior to Law No. 1 of 1974, namely that marriage is a community domain, not a state domain.**
