Abstract

The Long Amulet Ritual in Cirebon is a form of local religiosity that reflectsa strategic syncretism between Islamic teachings and Javanese wisdom. UnlikeWestern approaches that tend to view syncretism as passive acculturationor theological deviation, this article uses Andrew Beatty's theoretical frameworkAndrew Beatty that understands syncretism as an active dialoguebetween equal or hierarchical ideological systems. Through qualitative-descriptive methods and in-depth interviews with religious leaders, royal servants, and the people of Cirebon, this study reveals that Panjang Jimatis not merely a cultural heritage, but a process of reconceptualization, integration,and modification consciously carried out by local actors. The findings showthat this ritual becomes a symbolic space where the values of tawhid, palace authority, and Javanese mystical spirituality merge in a contextual and dynamic form. This study provides a theoretical contribution to the study ofIslam Nusantara by rejecting the universal-local dichotomy and emphasizing thatIslam Nusantara is an Islam that engages in dialogue, not an Islam that is imposed.
