Household Conflict Management from Muhammad Arifin Badri's Perspective

Abstract

Conflict is a difference of opinion, values, or interests that arises between individuals or groups within an organization. Conflict can also be defined as any form of interaction that contains contradictions or antagonistic elements between two or more parties. Although often associated with confrontation and tension, conflict is not entirely negative. In fact, conflict is a challenge that can open up opportunities for growth if managed well. In the context of conflict, management is the process by which the parties involved, or a third party, develop and implement strategies to control the conflict in order to achieve the desired resolution. Based on this, marital conflicts must be handled as best as possible through a holistic resolution approach that combines general perspectives with Islamic teachings. According to Muhammad Arifin Badri's perspective, some of the ways to manage and resolve conflicts in marriage include: (1) Making religion and good character the main considerations in choosing a partner; (2) Neutralizing viewpoints and expectations about marriage.; (3) Always remembering the good qualities of your partner.; (4) Understanding the nature of a wife’s jealousy and tolerating it within reasonable limits.
