Abstract

This study explores the impact and ideology of Wahhabism within Islamic puritanism, focusing on its historical development and contemporary implications. It aims to analyze Wahhabi thought's origins, principles, and influence on Islamic revival movements and interpretations of rituals and values. Adopting a qualitative approach, data is drawn from primary sources like the Qur'an, Hadith literature, and secondary sources such as academic articles and books. Wahhabism, led by Muhammad ibn 'Abd al-Wahhab, emerged in the 18th century to purify Islam, rejecting intellectualism, mysticism, and cultural diversity, advocating for a literal interpretation of texts. This ideology has influenced modern Islamic movements and contributed to religious violence, impacting the interpretation of Islamic principles amidst contemporary dynamics. In conclusion, this research underscores Wahhabism's lasting influence on Islamic thought, shaping debates on orthodoxy, cultural identity, and political ideology within the Muslim world, contributing to a deeper understanding of Islamic puritanism's complexities and its global implications.

Abstract

This study explores the profound cultural and social significance of the sisingaan tradition in the Panganten Sunat ceremony in Cibiru District, Bandung City, Indonesia, through the lens of Victor Turner's ritual theory. Rooted in local customs, this tradition is not merely a form of entertainment but serves as a symbolic ritual of social transition, marking the passage from childhood to adulthood for individuals undergoing circumcision. Using a qualitative approach, the research highlights liminality—a transitional phase in which participants shift in social roles and identities. The findings reveal that the sisingaan tradition fosters an egalitarian sense of community (communitas), breaking down hierarchical barriers and reinforcing social solidarity and cohesion among participants. Through rich symbolic elements such as lion effigies, traditional music, and ceremonial processions, the ritual acts as a vehicle for preserving cultural heritage and strengthening the collective identity of the Cibiru community. The study concludes that the sisingaan tradition serves as both a cultural preservation mechanism and a social tool for teaching values to younger generations. Its contributions extend beyond the ceremonial, highlighting the role of traditional rituals in fostering unity, maintaining cultural integrity, and shaping societal structures.
