Abstract

This research is motivated by the many problems of uncertified mosque waqf land at the Maiwa District Office of Religious Affairs (KUA), Enrekang Regency. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of persuasive communication in minimizing the problems of mosque waqf land, including its forms, strategies, and supporting and inhibiting factors. This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data collection techniques were carried out through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation with informants consisting of the Head of the Maiwa District KUA, religious instructors, mosque administrators, religious leaders, and the local community. The results of the study indicate that persuasive communication implemented through interpersonal communication, group communication, organizational communication, and mass communication is considered effective in minimizing the problems of waqf land. Supporting factors for the effectiveness of persuasive communication include the role of the government, da'i, waqif, and nadzir, while inhibiting factors include the lack of competent human resources, low waqf literacy in the community, and the geographical conditions of the region. In addition, the persuasive communication strategies used, including the bil-hikmah (wisdom), al-mau'idzah hasanah (intelligible), al-mujadalah (intelligible), bil-hal (intelligible), bil-mal (intelligible), collaborative strategies, and the use of online media, have proven effective in resolving waqf land issues. This research highlights the importance of strengthening persuasive communication strategies and increasing waqf literacy to support the optimization of waqf land management in the community.

Abstract

    Marriage in Indonesia reflects a dynamic interaction between religious norms and living customary practices; however, studies on the Bugis To Lotang community tend to be descriptive and rarely examine its compatibility with Islamic family law. This study aims to analyze the meaning and practice of the To Lotang wedding tradition, explore its dynamic changes, and assess its conformity with Islamic legal principles. This research employs a qualitative design using ethnographic and socio-legal approaches, supported by a normative juridical perspective. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews with customary leaders (Uwa’), and documentation in Amparita Village, Sidenreng Rappang Regency. The findings reveal that the To Lotang wedding tradition consists of pre-wedding, wedding, and post-wedding stages that embody symbolic, social, and spiritual meanings, reflecting values such as siri’ (self-esteem), pacce (solidarity), and respect for ancestors. The tradition has undergone adaptive changes due to modernization, particularly in the simplification of stages, without altering its core values. From the perspective of Islamic family law, most practices can be categorized as ‘urf (custom) that is permissible as long as they do not contradict Sharia principles. However, the absence of explicit ijab kabul raises concerns regarding legal validity, necessitating the integration of the Islamic marriage contract. This study contributes to the development of Islamic family law by offering a contextual understanding of the interaction between customary practices and Islamic law.
