Indonesia is a country with high early married in the world, with 1.220.900 children, with Java being the most significant contributor by 50%. Early married can have a negative effect on the person who did it.This study aims to determine the relationship between emotional intelligence and the quality of married fora person who did early married. The study uses incidental sampling with 87 participants who did early married, namely, men who are married under the age of 25 years, women who are married under the age of 21 years, who have a maximum marriage age of five years, and who have a minimum one child. The study uses two measuring tools, namely the Emotional Intelligence Scale, owned by Salovey and Mayer (1990), for emotional intelligence, and the Indonesian Moslem Marital Quality Scale, owned byWahyuningsih (2013), for the quality of married. The level of reliability of the measuring instrument used in this stud was 0,935 for the Emotional Intelligent Scale and 0,833 for the Indonesian Moslem Marital Quality Scale. The result of the analysis using the Pearson correlation, the research data showed that there was a positive relationship between emotional intelligence and quality of married, with a correlation coefficient of 0,725 with a significance of 0,000 (<0,05). So, higher emotional intelligence makes the higher quality of married and vice versa. Thus, for couples about to get married, it is better to pay attention to the level of emotional intelligence before marriage so that a high-quality marriage can be created.
