Abstract

Social changes in modern families, especially dual-earner families where both husband and wife work, pose challenges in the division of domestic and public roles. This study examines the division of roles between husbands and wives through the principle of mubadalah (mutuality and cooperation), specifically in dual-earner families in Kediri City. The focus of the study includes the division of roles between husbands and wives in dual-earner families through the principle of mubadalah in relation to the division of domestic and public roles. This study uses qualitative empirical methods through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation, with qualitative descriptive analysis and data triangulation. The results show diverse dynamics in the division of roles, but there is still gender inequality where domestic work is mostly borne by wives even though husbands also help. Balancing time is a major challenge due to work pressures. Open communication and mutual agreement have proven to be the key to family harmony. The application of the principle of mubadalah as a principle of equality and complementarity can strengthen the relationship between husband and wife, in accordance with Islamic law, which emphasizes justice, partnership, and deliberation in the division of roles between husband and wife.
