Abstract

Ratib Saman is the most important dhikr that contains invocation. Ratib Saman was first introduced by Shaykh Abdul Samad al-Palimbani and was part of the teachings of the Sammaniyah order. The practice of Ratib Saman in Palembang had shifted because there were too few followers who read the Ratib Saman. However, over time, the Ratib Saman tradition began to be preserved by the people of Palembang, especially in old mosques. Ratib Saman is routinely practiced on twice a week. This research aims at determining the beginning of the practice of Ratib Saman in Palembang and the preservation of Ratib Saman in Palembang that are still being held.
