Abstract

Salai Jin is a dance that is believed to have magical powers and is used by the community as a ritual to connect the human realm with the Jinn realm. This dance which contains mystical rituals is performed to ask for help from the Jinn, such as; healing the sick, repelling the plague, or as a form of benefit if the ritual succeeds in healing the sick. This research uses descriptive-qualitative analysis with the Ethnographic Communication approach. Data collection is done directly by the researcher. This technique is carried out using question and answer interaction with or without using interview guidelines with traditional leaders, ritual implementers, and researchers who have conducted Salai Jin studies. Salai Jin or the genie dance is a ritual communication process carried out by the Tidore Islands community with the aim of being able to establish relationships with the jinn nation which is called the embodiment of the ancestors or Papa se Tete so that the Jinn can provide assistance to heal one of the residents of the disease suffered. In general, this ritual procession takes place inside and outside the room led by Sowohi or traditional elders.

Abstract

This article discusses the role and strategies of da'wah in enhancing religious awareness and spiritual well-being among farmers and fishermen of the Kaili ethnic group. Through field studies and data collection methods such as interviews, observations, and literature reviews, this research explores how da'wah can address their religious and spiritual needs. The findings reveal that the Kaili farmers and fishermen heavily rely on agriculture and fishing as their primary livelihood. They have a strong connection with nature and their surrounding environment, uphold traditional values and customs, and exhibit high solidarity and communal spirit. However, they face challenges such as limited resources, unpredictable weather and seasons, economic difficulties, as well as geographical and social isolation. In this context, da'wah plays a crucial role in strengthening the faith and spiritual well-being of the Kaili community. Effective da'wah approaches encompass education and dissemination, social engagement, and technology-based initiatives. The implications of this research can serve as a guide for da'wah activists, government entities, and related organizations in developing relevant and impactful da'wah strategies for the farmers and fishermen, particularly within the context of the Kaili ethnic group.
