Every marriage is certainly expected to run smoothly until the end of life and has the goal of building a family or household that is sakinah, mawaddah, and rahmah. However, that does not guarantee that there will be no divorce in a country, especially Indonesia. Divorce is considered to be the final solution for families or households that can no longer build a harmonious atmosphere. Divorce can be filed by both husband and wife, the wife who files for divorce is known as a contested divorce and while the lawsuit from the husband is known as a talak divorce. In a divorce, it must be based on the reasons as stipulated in the Legislative Regulations, if the lawsuit is filed at the District Court, the legal basis that applies is the Compilation of Islamic Law. To compile this research using a normative juridical method which is then compiled with qualitative data, namely in the form of words using a case study approach to the decision of the Batam City Religious Court. The application for divorce must be based on the grounds for divorce regulated in Article 116 KHI and the arguments presented in the lawsuit must be proven using documentary evidence and witness statements. If this is not proven, the court may impose the principle of risk of proof where the party giving the argument cannot prove its argument so that it can be defeated in the case or in other cases it is not used as a consideration for the Panel of Judges. In the verstek decision of the Religious Court, the plaintiff was deemed unable to prove the argument for his lawsuit related to the reason for the divorce caused by the defendant having an affair with another woman, because the plaintiff did not prove his argument. So that what the judge considers is the condition of the household which is no longer harmonious so that it cannot build a household that is sakinah, mawaddah, and rahmah as well as the plaintiff and the defendant who no longer live in one house.
