ABSTRAK

Problems related to the responsibility of husband and wife for joint debts in the event of divorce often give rise to problems regarding who will be responsible for the debt. From this background, the author formulates the problem formulation, namely: What is the position of joint debts in marriage according to the Compilation of Islamic Law and the Civil Code and what is the responsibility of husband and wife for joint debts if the marriage breaks up due to divorce according to the Compilation of Islamic Law and the Code Civil law. Writing this thesis uses a normative juridical method with a statutory approach and a comparative approach, a conceptual approach. Primary, secondary, and analysis of legal materials are descriptive qualitative. Divorce between husband and wife in a marriage does not necessarily erase the debt and debt obligations between husband and wife and third parties. In accountability, the debt is borne by the joint assets.
