Abstract

This research aims to analyze the debate between religious and traditional figures over pagang gadai land in Agam Regency, West Sumatra, Indonesia. This research is essential for religious figures to consider the practice of pawning that the community has carried out to be usury. It employed qualitative methods with a case research approach and used the maṣlaḥah mursalah theory to analyze the data. The primary data were obtained from informants, including religious leaders and members of the Indonesian Ulama Council (MUI), Nahdlatul Ulama (NU), and Muhammadiyah, as well as traditional figures comprising Kerapatan Adat Nagari (KAN) members. Some relevant books, literature, and journal articles were studied as secondary data. The study shows that the practice of pagang gadai is considered usury to religious figures but not traditional ones. Traditional figures view the practice of pagang gadai as belonging to bay’ al-wafā’, as it is a form of mutual assistance (ta’āwun) devoid of injustice but benefits both parties. The opinion of traditional figures on mutual assistance, based on the concept of benefit, is consistent with the maṣlaḥah mursalah theory that pagang gadai is valuable to society. Abstrak: Tujuan penelitian menganalisis perdebatan tokoh agama dan tokoh adat terkait pagang gadai tanah di Kabupaten Agam, Sumatera Barat, Indonesia. Penelitian ini penting untuk dilakukan karena praktek gadai yang selama ini dilakukan oleh masyarakat dianggap oleh para tokoh agama sebagai riba. Jenis penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi kasus dan teori maṣlaḥah mursalah digunakan untuk menganalisis data. Data primer diperoleh dari informan, yakni tokoh agama yang terdiri dari pimpinan dan anggota Majelis Ulama Indonesia (MUI), Nahdlatul Ulama (NU), dan Muhammadiyah, serta tokoh adat yang tergabung dalam Kerapatan Adat Nagari (KAN) sedangkan literatur buku dan artikel jurnal relevan dijadikan sumber sekunder. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa praktik pagang gadai dianggap riba oleh tokoh agama, namun tidak bagi tokoh adat. Tokoh adat memandang praktik pagang gadai termasuk dalam bay’ al-wafā’, karena merupakan bentuk gotong royong (ta’āwun) yang tidak mengandung unsur zalim namun menguntungkan kedua pihak yang mengambil manfaat darinya. Pendapat tokoh adat yang menitikberatkan pada konsep kemaslahatan, yakni tolong-menolong sejalan dengan teori maṣlaḥah mursalah bahwa pagang gadai dapat mewujudkan kemaslahatan di masyarakat.

Abstract

This article examines the Reception of Islamic legal rituals among indigenous Indonesian communities through a law-centered comparative design. This study understands reception as the selection, reinterpretation, and substantive integration of Islamic ritual norms into local practice. The framework juxtaposes doctrinal analysis of fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence) categories, namely ibādāt taʿabbudī/tawqīfī (worship rituals strictly bound to canonical pillars and conditions) and muʿāmalāt/ahwāl al-shakhṣiyyah (social transactions and personal status), with ethnographic and historical materials. The analysis assesses four equivalent domains: core obligations of worship, calendrical ordering, sacred space and authority, and life-cycle rites. Findings indicate that the Wetu Telu (Sasak "three times" tradition) community in Lombok exhibits primarily substantive Reception, in which ritual form and legal intent converge and are institutionally embedded. By contrast, the Masade (Sangihe "Old Islam" community) exhibits a more selective and symbolic reception, maintaining Islamic identifiers while limiting ritual obligations and temporal coordination within a localized sacred order. These patterns clarify how ʿurf (customary practice) can sustain or reframe Fiqh in indigenous settings without reducing analysis to a simple binary of "orthodox" versus "syncretic." The article contributes a scalable matrix for assessing ritual reception across communities and highlights implications for legal pluralism and the living law of Islam in Indonesia.
