Abstract

This article aims to examine the tradition of sea feasts on Barus Beach, because this tradition is a cultural heritage that is firmly rooted in the lives of coastal communities as a form of expression of gratitude to Allah SWT for marine products and prayers for the safety of fishermen. Along with the development of the times, this tradition has experienced dynamics due to the penetration of Sufistic-Islamic values mixed with local culture and the influence of modernity that changes people's perspective on religious practices. This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive-analytical approach, with data collected through literature studies, participatory observations, and in-depth interviews with religious leaders, traditional actors, and local communities. The results of the study show that the Sea Kenduri has a sufistic element that is reflected in the practice of dhikr, prayer, and tahlil, which is rooted in the teachings of the tariqat that developed in Barus. From the perspective of Islamic law, this tradition can be categorized as 'urf sahih as long as it does not contain elements that are contrary to the principle of monotheism. However, modernity brings challenges in the form of shifting values among the younger generation, which increasingly questions the relevance of this ritual in the context of contemporary Islam. Therefore, it is necessary to reconstruct this tradition so that it remains in harmony with sharia values without losing the essence of culture and spirituality that has long been inherent in the lives of the people of Barus Beach.

Abstract

Interfaith dialogue in rural contexts remains underexplored, despite the unique dynamics of social and religious coexistence in such areas. This study aims to answer two central research questions: (1) How is interfaith dialogue practiced in a multireligious rural community? and (2) How does such dialogue shape or hinder religious inclusivity? The research was conducted in Tantom Angkola, North Sumatra, a village inhabited by Muslim and Christian communities with a long history of coexistence. Using a qualitative approach, in-depth interviews were conducted with 15 participants from diverse generational, religious, and social backgrounds. Thematic analysis revealed four key themes: (1) Perceptions of Religious Harmony, (2) Barriers to Deeper Interfaith Engagement, (3) Everyday Interactions between Faith Communities, and (4) Aspirations for Future Inclusivity. Findings showed that interfaith dialogue mostly occured informally and through social structures rather than theological exchanges, reflecting superficial tolerance but not yet full inclusivity. Key barriers include religious stereotypes, cultural conservatism, and lack of institutional support. The discussion draws on Swidler’s Decalogue of Interfaith Dialogue and is contextualized within Islamic pedagogical traditions such as halaqah (study circles) and the ethical principle of wasathiyah (moderation). The study concluded that revitalizing Islamic principles of justice for minorities and fostering locally grounded interfaith education are essential for advancing deeper inclusivity in rural contexts.

Abstract

This study examines the transformation of cultural values in Minang-Mandailing marriage with the Anthropology approach of Islamic Law in the West Pasaman community. Marriage in the Minang-Mandailing community is not just a social bond, but also a manifestation of customary cultural values that interact with the principles of Islamic law. The West Pasaman community, which consists of various ethnic groups, shows a combination of customary law and Islamic law in the practice of marriage. The research method used is a qualitative approach with case studies in several villages in West Pasaman, which involves in-depth interviews with traditional leaders, religious leaders, and local communities. The results of the study show that there are changes in the implementation of marriage that are influenced by modernization factors, education, and the influence of state law, but still maintain traditional values that are closely related to family honor and social status. On the other hand, Islamic law provides a more egalitarian framework in the rights and obligations of couples in marriage. This transformation of cultural values is also reflected in efforts to harmonize the principles of customary law and Islamic law, which are sometimes conflicting but also complementary. This research is expected to provide insight into the dynamics of the relationship between customary law and Islamic law in the practice of marriage as well as its contribution to social change in the West Pasaman community.
