Abstract

This study aims to analyze the religious behavior of the An-Nadzir community in Romang Lompoa Village, Bontomarannu District, Gowa Regency, South Sulawesi. The focus of the research is directed at the dimensions of religious behavior, influencing factors, and its social implications in the context of the local community. The research method uses a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation of five key informants consisting of religious figures, community leaders, and ordinary members. Data analysis was conducted using thematic methods, complemented by source and method triangulation techniques to maintain validity. The results show that the religious behavior of the An-Nadzir community includes a cognitive dimension in the form of belief in the importance of upholding Allah's law and the sunnah of the Prophet; an emotional dimension that brings peace and spiritual experience to members; and a behavioral dimension in the form of the Latiful Akbar dhikr ritual, distinctive prayer procedures, and outward symbols such as turbans, veils, and blond hair. The community structure is organized through hierarchical leadership centered on an amir. Interactions with the outside community are relatively harmonious through mutual cooperation and economic engagement, although the community often faces stigma and criticism. The study's conclusions confirm that the An-Nadzir community is able to survive as a minority religious group through internal solidarity, social openness, and resilience in maintaining its religious identity. These findings contribute to the literature on minority religiosity in Indonesia and offer practical implications for strengthening pluralism and social tolerance.

Abstract

This study examines the integration of local wisdom into sociology learning and its contribution to strengthening students’ cultural identity at SMA Negeri 2 Sinjai. The research was motivated by the growing influence of globalization, which has led to shifts in cultural values among younger generations, highlighting the need for educational strategies that preserve and reinforce cultural identity. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, with data collected through observations, interviews, and documentation. The participants consisted of sociology teachers, students, the school principal, and community leaders selected through purposive sampling. Data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model, including data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, while data validity was ensured through triangulation techniques. The findings reveal that the integration of local wisdom in sociology learning is implemented by connecting learning materials with local cultural values, such as mutual cooperation, Bugis traditions, and the social norms of the Sinjai community. These values are incorporated through discussion-based learning, case studies, and environment-oriented assignments. Teachers facilitate this process by utilizing students’ experiences, real-life social situations, and local social phenomena, making the learning process more contextual and meaningful. The integration of local wisdom positively influences students by enhancing their understanding of local culture, fostering appreciation for social values, and strengthening pride in their regional cultural identity. Therefore, local wisdom-based sociology learning not only improves students’ academic comprehension but also contributes to character development and the reinforcement of cultural identity in the contemporary era.
