This understanding raises issues of gender justice in contemporary Muslim families. This study aims to examine the possibility of reconstructing a more egalitarian husband-wife relationship through normative-theological, socio-cultural, and juridical approaches. The method used is literature research, supported by validation through triangulation of primary sources (the Qur'an, hadith, and fiqh books) and secondary sources (journal articles, books, and legal decisions). The results of the study show that the Qur'an emphasizes the principles of sakīnah, mawaddah, and raḥmah as the basis of the family, that patriarchal 'urf is dynamic and can be directed towards a more equitable pattern, and that Indonesian positive law still needs to be revised to be more sensitive to gender equality. In conclusion, an egalitarian husband-wife relationship does not contradict sharia, but is in line with maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah, and has implications for the development of mubādalah theory, symbolic interactionism, and fair and contextual family law practices.</em></p> Mufita Sari Ansari Ansari M.
