Raisya Bawazier and Muhammad Zidan proceed with divorce after failed mediation

The divorce proceedings for Raisya Bawazier and Muhammad Zidan continued at the Central Jakarta Religious Court on Tuesday, September 8, 2026. During the hearing, Raisya Bawazier stated that she had personally requested the divorce and specifically asked for a triple talaq, noting that the decision to separate was a mutual agreement reached before the official filing.

Mediation efforts between the two parties failed to produce an agreement to preserve the marriage. However, legal counsel Machi Ahmad confirmed that the couple has reached a settlement regarding mut'ah and idah alimony. The case will now proceed to the examination of the main merits of the case.

Muhammad Zidan addressed the causes of the marital discord, citing lifestyle and cultural differences between Jakarta and Malang as significant factors. He noted that the transition to life in Malang presented challenges for Raisya. Additionally, legal counsel Didi Lestarion mentioned that Zidan's busy schedule as an entrepreneur and frequent late working hours contributed to communication difficulties and arguments via phone and messaging apps.
