Abstract

This study aims to reveal the symbolic meaning of the Rebo Wekasan tradition in the perspective of the study of the Living Qur’an in the community of Cempakasari Village. This tradition is a cultural heritage that integrates Islamic values with local wisdom, which is specifically carried out on the last Wednesday of the month of Safar. This study uses a qualitative approach with ethnographic methods, involving participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and document analysis. The purpose of the research is to understand how people interpret the symbols in these rituals and their relevance to the Qur’anic values that live in their midst. The results of the study show that the Rebo Wekasan tradition not only reflects efforts to maintain social and spiritual harmony, but also becomes a medium for inheriting Islamic values that are dynamic and contextual. Symbols such as joint prayer, almsgiving, and the use of sacred water are understood as the embodiment of hope for blessings and protection from disasters, in accordance with the values contained in the Qur’an.
