STIGMA DAN RESILIENSI ANAK LUAR NIKAH: ANALISIS NARATIF MEDIA SOSIAL BERBASIS MODEL TODOROV DAN PERSPEKTIF MAQĀṢID AL-SYARĪ‘AH

Abstrak

This research aims to explore the transformation of identity and resilience of children born out of wedlock amid social stigma through the perspective of Islamic law and Maqāṣid al-Syarī‘ah. Using a qualitative method with a Mixed Deductive-Inductive Narrative Analysis approach, this study dissects ten authentic narratives from the Quora digital platform using Tzvetan Todorov's five-stage structural framework. The results show that the transformation of the subjects' identities moves consistently from a state of assumed normality towards a new equilibrium marked by residual trauma due to collective stigma. A disconnect was found between protective normative legal texts and a sociological reality that tends to be discriminatory. The stigma of being an “illegitimate child” and misconceptions about lineage law trigger self-stigma that hinders the subject's access to civil rights. As a solution, this study formulates a resilience model that integrates the reconstruction of a legal paradigm based on jalb al-maṣāliḥ, empathetic administrative reform of law enforcement institutions, and the strengthening of a social support system based on fiṭrah values. The study concludes that protecting the dignity of children born out of wedlock within the framework of Maqāṣid al-Syarī‘ah must go beyond biological certainty towards substantive justice that guarantees the well-being, honor, and social rights of children without discrimination.
