Domestic violence (KDRT) poses a serious challenge to family resilience in Indonesia. This article aims to examine the re-actualization of mu'asyarah bil ma'ruf as a prevention strategy against domestic violence in Indonesia through the integration of Islamic family law, maqasid al-syari'ah, the ethics of reciprocity, and positive law, using a normative legal method with a qualitative-descriptive character, alongside conceptual, statutory, and integrative-analytical approaches to legal materials. The findings indicate that mu'asyarah bil ma'ruf is not a unilateral obligation, but rather an ethical-legal reciprocal framework encompassing non-violence, dignity, fair communication, and sexual integrity, wherein this study formulates a five-layer prevention model as a normative synthesis rather than an empirically proven model. In terms of discussion and implications, the theoretical contribution of this study broadens the concept of marital reciprocity ethics based on theological-normative integration, while its practical implication offers an operational framework for policymakers and religious institutions by positioning religious norms and positive law complementarily, where Islamic ethics builds preventive awareness, while state law provides protection and accountability.
