Abstract

This study explores the gender dynamics within Minangkabau customs, focusing on the pivotal role of women in safeguarding and preserving high heirlooms (harta pusaka tinggi). As a matrilineal society, Minangkabau places women at the center of inheritance and cultural preservation, with high heirlooms serving as symbols of familial and communal identity. Using a qualitative approach, this research examines the responsibilities, challenges, and strategies employed by women in maintaining these assets. Data were collected through interviews with customary leaders, women inheritors, and community members, complemented by observations of traditional practices. The findings reveal that Minangkabau women hold a dual responsibility as custodians of both physical heirlooms, such as land and traditional objects, and intangible heritage, including customs and values. This role ensures the continuity of Minangkabau identity across generations. However, modernization, urbanization, and shifts in gender roles pose significant challenges to this tradition. Women often navigate complex negotiations between preserving traditional values and adapting to contemporary economic and social realities. The study highlights the adaptive strategies employed by women to balance these demands while safeguarding communal harmony. This research underscores the importance of empowering women in their roles as cultural custodians and the need for community-based initiatives to support the preservation of Minangkabau heritage. By illuminating the interplay between gender and cultural sustainability, this study contributes to broader discussions on matrilineal societies and the evolving role of women in cultural preservation.

Abstract

Penelitian ini mengkaji tradisi mandi roh yang dilestarikan oleh pengikut Tarekat Sammaniyah di Surau Lambah, Kampung Lekok, Jorong Kampung Batu Selatan, Kabupaten Solok. Tradisi ini lebih dari sekadar ritual fisik, melainkan juga proses spiritual untuk mensucikan jiwa, mendekatkan diri kepada Allah, dan memperbarui kesadaran batin dalam kehidupan religius. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menjelaskan pelaksanaan mandi roh dalam Tarekat Sammaniyah dan nilai-nilai spiritual yang terkandung di dalamnya. Metode yang digunakan adalah studi lapangan dengan teknik observasi, wawancara dengan khalifah dan anggota tarekat, serta dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa mandi roh merupakan ritual penyucian diri sebelum suluk yang dilakukan dengan niat, doa, dzikir, dan empat jenis air. Ritual ini bertujuan untuk membersihkan jiwa dan mempersiapkan batin dalam mendekatkan diri kepada Allah. Tradisi ini mengandung nilai spiritual seperti tazkiyah al-nafs, keikhlasan, sabar, taubat, dan kesadaran terhadap kehadiran Tuhan. Mandi roh juga berfungsi sebagai pendidikan moral dan spiritual bagi para jamaah untuk menghadapi tantangan zaman. Oleh karena itu, mandi roh bukan hanya ritual simbolis, tetapi juga jalur menuju pencerahan jiwa dan kedekatan dengan Tuhan.
