Abstract

The tradition of celebration after circumcision in North Sumedang District is part of the culture of the Sundanese people, which reflects gratitude, togetherness, and the preservation of the art of Renggong horse. This study aims to find out the views of Islamic figures on the tradition and analyze its laws from the perspective of Islamic law. This research uses a field research method with a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were collected through interviews with figures of Nahdlatul Ulama (NU), Muhammadiyah, and the Islamic Union (PERSIS), as well as literature studies. Data analysis was carried out using the concept of 'urf and the rules of al-'ādah muḥakkamah by considering the aspects of benefits and harms. The results of the study showed that the three Islamic figures basically allowed the tradition of celebration after circumcision, including the use of the Renggong Horse, as long as its implementation did not conflict with Islamic law. The difference in views lies in the emphasis each figure places on conformity of customs with the sharia, social benefits, economic capacity, and the prevention of waste and harm. Based on the perspective of Islamic law, the tradition can be categorized as 'urf ṣaḥīḥ if it is carried out reasonably, according to economic ability, providing benefits, and not violating the provisions of sharia. Thus, the tradition of celebrating after circumcision can be preserved wisely as part of local culture while still prioritizing Islamic values.
