Abstract

Purpose – This study examines the social meanings and Islamic legal status of the Maccera’ Wettang seventh-month pregnancy ceremony in Panincong Village and assesses selective harmonization of Sharia and Bugis custom. Design – A qualitative socio-legal case study used observation, documentation, and interviews with eight purposively selected informants. Ritual components were analyzed through ‘urf, attributed causality, purity, benefit or harm, and maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah; SRQR guided reporting only. Findings – Prayer, lawful food sharing, family support, and safe cleansing align with ‘urf sahīh. Mappitto’ and birthing simulations require non-divinatory interpretations; ritual chicken-blood application is ‘urf fāsid. Massage safety and efficacy were not clinically evaluated. Research Implications – The findings support considering participatory reform with maternal-health safeguards, not blanket acceptance or rejection. Generalization is limited by one village, eight informants, and the absence of intervention testing. Originality – A component-based ‘urf assessment links Islamic jurisprudence with living Bugis custom and proposes, rather than validates, a culturally sensitive reform pathway.
