Framing Analysis of Islamic Marriage Sermon in Perspective of Gender Equality

Abstract: Knowledge of gender in the context of marriage sermon is closely related to the interpretation of religious doctrines concerning the relationship of men and women. This study aims to understand the perspective of gender equality on Islamic marriage sermon through framing analysis. This study used framing analysis to reveals the frame of a text by using framing devices that are directly related to the central idea of the text and reasoning. The devices are associated with the cohesion and coherence of the text that refer to a particular idea of marriage. Islamic sermons such as text still tend to show discriminatory for example, this can be felt in the reproduction of a sentences like this: such as sentence “the ideal family is where the husband and wife make a living for their household, especially by giving love and education to children”. The word “ideal” or “good” is a framing device. And the phrase, “if the wife works outside the home, the family will lose orientation”. The word “disoriented” indicates that family whose wife works outside of the house is a failed family. In this case, the wife is used as a scapegoat for the failure of a family as a wife who works outside.
