Abstract

The tradition of welcoming the return of Hajj and Umrah pilgrims is a socio-religious practice that has long developed within Indonesian society as an expression of gratitude, respect, and social solidarity. However, along with the passage of time, this tradition has undergone cultural transformations that have affected both its meaning and practice. This study aims to examine cultural transformation in the tradition of welcoming returning Hajj and Umrah pilgrims in Jember Regency, focusing on welcoming practices involving the use of sound horeg as well as social practices in the domestic sphere following the pilgrims’ return. This research employs a qualitative approach with a case study method, utilizing observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation techniques. The findings reveal a shift from sacred and collective socio-religious rituals toward more complex social practices characterized by expressions of popular culture and socio-economic demands. The use of sound horeg functions not only as a form of entertainment but also as a symbol of identity, prestige, and social pride. Furthermore, the practice of providing meals and souvenirs has transformed into an unwritten social obligation that generates psychological pressure, particularly for pilgrims with limited economic resources. These findings indicate an ongoing negotiation between religious values, popular culture, and social realities within the tradition of welcoming returning Hajj and Umrah pilgrims.
