Abstract

This research investigates the unique synthesis of Islamic and Javanese spiritual traditions within the Bonokeling customary community in Central Java. Addressing the urgent need to understand cultural preservation in a modern context, this study employs a descriptive-analytical and sociological-legal approach to examine the dynamic integration of this belief system with Islamic family law. The findings reveal a novel process where these value systems co-exist and mutually influence each other, particularly in matters of marriage and inheritance. This adaptation enables the Bonokeling community to preserve its customary values while adhering to Islamic teachings. This research makes a significant contribution to the fields of sociology and law by providing a compelling example of cultural adaptation and legal pluralism in practice.
