Abstract

This article aims to explain the causes of social conflict between the Mandailing and Minangkabau ethnic groups in Padang Lawas. It raises two main questions: what are the causes of the conflict, and how is the conflict managed? This study employs a qualitative approach with a field research design, while the data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings show that the conflict stems from clashes in communication culture, cultural differences, acculturation in interethnic marriages, and domination of the economic sphere as sources of intergroup tension. As a result, equal and dialogical social integration has failed to develop. In certain contexts, the Minangkabau ethnic group, as migrants, is perceived as not having fully assimilated into the local customs and culture of the Mandailing community, thereby creating social distance, prejudice, and stereotypes that continue to be reproduced in everyday interactions. On the other hand, interethnic marriage often becomes an arena of identity negotiation laden with cultural pressures, while domination in the economic sector further reinforces social boundaries between the two groups. This article emphasizes that social conflict in a plural society is not merely the result of ethnic difference itself, but rather the product of disrupted communication, fragile acculturation, and unequal power relations. Therefore, conflict resolution requires a more transformative cultural approach through cultural dialogue, the strengthening of social empathy, and the reconstruction of more inclusive interethnic relations. These findings demonstrate that without fair management of pluralism, diversity can easily shift from being a social asset into a latent source of social fragmentation.

Abstract

This study examines the Turun Kasunge ritual as a unique expression of local Islamic practice within the multicultural society of Sosorgadong, North Sumatra. The ritual involves symbolic elements such as lime water, flour, and incense, each carrying specific meanings related to gratitude, purification, protection, and spiritual renewal. Although the tradition is practiced exclusively by the Muslim community, it is respected and accommodated by people of other faiths in the area, reflecting a culture of tolerance, coexistence, and mutual respect. Using a qualitative approach that includes in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation, the research explores how Islamic spiritual values are embedded and negotiated within local cultural frameworks. The findings reveal that Turun Kasunge not only reinforces religious identity but also promotes social cohesion and communal harmony. It serves as a living example of how religious rituals can contribute to the values of religious moderation, interfaith understanding, and peaceful pluralism in everyday life. This study contributes to broader discussions on local Islam, ritual symbolism, and the role of religious practices in maintaining social integration in diverse communities.

Abstract

The rapid development of technology today is accompanied by various moral problems in society, such as the rise of online gambling, drug abuse, promiscuity, and the decline of respect toward parents and teachers. This phenomenon indicates a moral crisis that has also affected higher education. This study aims to analyze the application of hadiths on morality in the daily lives of Hadith Studies students at UIN Sumatera Utara Medan and to identify the factors influencing it. This research employs a qualitative method with a case study approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation, and were analyzed using a descriptive-analytical technique. The results show that the application of moral hadiths among students is still partial and inconsistent, influenced by factors such as the campus environment, family, and social interactions. Nevertheless, there are efforts to internalize moral values through both academic and non-academic activities. This study concludes that strengthening the implementation of moral hadiths requires an integrative approach involving curriculum development, lecturers’ role modeling, and a supportive social environment. Therefore, it is recommended to enhance systematic and sustainable moral development programs within the university environment.
