Abstract

This study examines the acceptance of traditional circumcision practices among the community of Pantar Subdistrict, Alor Regency, in the context of the development of Islamic teachings. Although traditional circumcision is an important part of Alor society’s traditions, the growing influence of Islam has given rise to various perspectives regarding the practice of traditional circumcision, particularly concerning compliance with Sharia law. This study employs a descriptive qualitative approach to explore how levels of religious understanding, access to education, and traditional ties influence the acceptance or modification of traditional circumcision. The results indicate that communities with a deeper understanding of Islam tend to modify traditional circumcision practices to better align with Sharia, while those with strong traditional ties tend to maintain the practice in its original form. Formal education, particularly religious education, also plays a significant role in driving the modification or change of traditional circumcision practices, with a focus on hygiene and health aspects. The study’s conclusion affirms that traditional circumcision in Pantar remains an integral part of cultural identity; however, the influence of religion and modernization has driven changes in these practices.
