Abstract

Menyapih is the process of separating the child from breast milk or the cessation of a mother's breastfeeding. The purpose of this study is to describe in depth the structure and function of the nyapih mantra. Along with the development of the increasingly advanced times, the current generation forgets that they must still maintain the culture that exists in society. Similarly, the mantra of the nyapih tradition now feels foreign to the community. This is because the tradition has rarely been carried out and few people want to learn it. Thus, there is an urge to do research on the nyapih mantra. This research focuses on the structure and function of spells. This research method uses a qualitative method. This research uses the theory of spell structure and spell function from Heru Saputra. This study produced findings on the structure of the spell contained in the nyapih mantra, namely, the title reflects the purpose of the spell, which is to separate the child from breast milk. The opening element contains a request for blessings and a request for guidance and protection to a figure who has higher power. The purpose element in this mantra contains wishes and hopes. The suggestive element in this mantra is related to the existence of God stating that all the purposes of the mantra can be fulfilled with the permission of Allah. The concluding element reflects the belief in the community of the mantra-user, as well as the expression of individuals and societies in their beliefs and hopes in Almighty God. This research also results in the function of the spell nyapih, which is individual and social. The mantra is individual, this mantra is a medium for individuals to express hopes, beliefs, and maintain connectivity with traditions and cultures that have been inherited. The nyapih mantra is social in nature, this tradition reflects the cultural identity, religious beliefs and livelihoods of the community.

Abstract

Di beberapa wilayah di Indonesia terdapat beberapa tradisi yang berkaitan dengan hari besar Islam, misalnya Idulfitri. Salah satu wilayah yang masih menjaga tradisi tersebut adalah Desa Talang, Kabupaten Magelang, Provinsi Jawa Tengah yaitu berupa genduren. Tradisi tersebut memiliki keunikan karena tidak ditemui di daerah lain. Artikel ini bertujuan mendeskripsikan pola komunikasi pada genduren yang dilakukan oleh masyarakat Dusun Talang dalam sudut pandang etnografi komunikasi. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah elisitasi dan simak dengan teknik sadap dan rekam. Selain itu, metode wawancara langsung juga digunakan sebagai bagian dari triangulasi terhadap data yang sudah diperoleh. Proses klasifikasi data kemudian dijabarkan dengan teknik pilah unsur tertentu. Berdasarkan hasil analisis, dapat diketahui bahwa ada pola komunikasi campuran pada tradisi genduren yang mengandung makna kultural dan filosofis. Ragam bahasa Jawa digunakan untuk berkomunikasi kepada sesama manusia, sedangkan ragam bahasa Arab digunakan untuk berkomunikasi antara makhuk kepada Tuhan. Bahasa Arab juga digunakan karena masyarakat merasa lebih afdal dalam berdoa. Makna khusus dari pelaksanaan genduren adalah penyempurnaan atas seluruh rangkaian ibadah selama bulan suci Ramadan serta Idulfitri sehingga masyarakat merasa “tersucikan” setelah melaksanakan tradisi tersebut. Dengan diri yang tersucikan masyarakat juga berharap doa yang dipanjatkan lebih mudah dikabulkan.

Abstract

Javanese script is a cultural heritage of the Indonesian nation that has high historical, philosophical, and aesthetic value. However, in the context of education, student interest in learning Javanese script is still relatively low. Low student interest results in low Javanese script writing skills in students. Lack of Javanese script writing skills results in low student learning outcomes. This occurs because students have difficulty distinguishing the form of Javanese script that is almost similar, the lack of reading sources containing Javanese script, the lack of use of Javanese script in everyday life and the lack of learning media that is adaptive to the development of digital technology. These conditions require a solution, so in this study Rajagita Media becomes a solution to the problem of students' lack of skills in writing Javanese script and the low learning outcomes of writing Javanese script students of SMP Negeri 7 Madiun. This study aims to determine the process of implementing Rajagita media in learning to write Javanese script for grade IX students of SMP Negeri 7 Madiun which influences students' writing skills. This study used a quantitative approach with an experimental method, namely a Quasi-Experimental Design, applying a "post-test only control group design." The results of the study show that the process of implementing or using Rajagita media in the experimental class with the following steps: 1. Providing trigger questions in apperception, pre-test, introduction of Rajagita media and procedures for use, as well as group discussions and practice of writing Javanese script on various platforms independently by students, and discussions of various obstacles and challenges can have a significant impact on students' writing skills. These writing skills include neatness of writing, correct use of pairs and sandhangan, using scripts in words and sentences correctly. Students' writing skills have an impact on improving student learning outcomes. The increase in student learning outcomes is proven by the p-value = 0.000 <0.05, meaning the p-value is smaller than the significance level, so Ha is accepted, so the study shows that the use of Rajagita media has a positive effect on improving students' Javanese script writing skills. This is evidenced by the difference in the average post-test score in the experimental class using Rajagita media with a pre-test score of 68 and a post-test score of 68. 87, an increase of 19 points. The control class, which did not receive any treatment, had a pretest score of 67, increasing to 69, a 2-point increase. This difference in scores indicates that Rajagita media is effective as a learning medium in improving students' Javanese script writing skills. The conclusion of this study confirms that the process of using Rajagita media in learning has proven effective in developing students' Javanese script writing skills. The application of technology in education not only enriches learning methods but also contributes to the preservation of Javanese script and strengthening cultural literacy in the context of modern education.

Abstract

This study is a qualitative research employing content analysis through Paul Ricoeur’s hermeneutic theory. The main issue examined is the symbolic meaning of moral values in the Serat Nitisruti verses and their relevance to the Qur’an. The researcher limits the discussion to five moral values: compassion, justice, humility, trustworthiness, and sincerity. The text of Nitisruti contains symbolic meanings that can be explored both narratively and ethically, following Ricoeur’s stages of interpretation from literal understanding to philosophical reflection. The findings reveal that Serat Nitisruti not only reflects Javanese cultural morality but also conveys universal values that are in harmony with Islamic teachings. This study reinforces the view that local literary works can serve as a space for cross-cultural and interreligious dialogue, as well as a medium for transmitting inclusive humanistic values.

Abstract

This study explores the discourse of spirituality in Serat Kalatidha by Raden Ngabehi Ranggawarsita through the lens of Norman Fairclough’s critical discourse analysis. The analysis focuses on the pupuh sinom, which reflects the poet’s spiritual response to moral decay in the zaman edan (age of madness). Using a descriptive qualitative method and literature study technique, the research reveals that Ranggawarsita responds to a corrupted social condition by choosing a spiritual path—distancing himself from worldliness and surrendering fully to God. The spiritual values constructed in the text encompass budidaya (inner and outer effort), eling (self-awareness), waspada (moral vigilance), and ndedonga (devotion through prayer). These four pillars serve as spiritual guidance—an “antidote” for navigating an era filled with uncertainty. Through the discourse analysis framework, Serat Kalatidha is revealed as a depiction of Ranggawarsita’s spiritual journey, born from his inner anxiety over a chaotic and unjust world.

Abstract

This article examines the spirituality of the Javanese people as reflected in Syair Risalah Tamba Ngantuk, a work by KH. Mohammad Zuhri that conveys strong moral and religious messages. The syair represents Javanese Islamic teachings through self-awareness, repentance, and a personal relationship with God. This study aims to reveal the forms, expressions, and meanings of spirituality in the syair using Puspoprojo’s hermeneutical approach, which consists of three principles: grammatical (nalar rasa), historical (pangerten kontekstual), and philosophical (laku tafsir). Using a qualitative method with thematic content analysis, the study finds that spirituality in the syair is expressed through teachings on the awareness of death, the importance of repentance, ethics in seeking knowledge, cosmological views of the soul, and prayer as a spiritual act. The hermeneutic interpretation shows that KH. Mohammad Zuhri not only delivers normative Islamic teachings but also expresses spiritual values in a gentle, poetic, and contextual language. Thus, Syair Risalah Tamba Ngantuk embodies a creative dialogue between Islam and Javanese culture, remaining relevant to contemporary religious life.

Abstract

Tawhid education, part of Islamic education, has an important position in Javanese society, especially for Muslims. Tawhid education can be obtained in various ways from various sources, one of which is from Serat Ambiya, which is part of Javanese local wisdom. The purpose of this study is to describe and explain the values of tawhid contained in Serat Ambiya. This research uses a qualitative descriptive method with a philological approach. Data in the form of words, phrases, clauses, or sentences in the text are taken by applying the purposive sampling technique. Data collection used reading and note-taking techniques. Based on data analysis of Serat Ambiya, the values of tauhid education contained therein can be summarized as follows: the acknowledgment of Allah as the Lord of the Universe and Allah as the Creator and Provider (tauhid rububiyah); the rejection of worshiping anything other than Allah, the declaration of tauhid, the prohibition of shirk, and the recitation of the tauhid phrase (tauhid uluhiyah); as well as the establishment of Allah's eternal nature, the call to invoke Allah's name, and the glorification of Allah (tauhid asma wa sifat). Strengthening the value of tawhid through local wisdom is one of the options as part of efforts to strengthen the values of Islamic Education in Javanese society.

Abstract

This study explores Undu-unduon, the oral folktales of the Saluan people in Central Sulawesi, as a medium of cultural preservation and identity formation. Despite the pressures of globalization and technological change, these narratives remain vital in transmitting values across generations. The research aims to identify the moral, social, and cultural wisdom contained in the stories and to explain their role in reflecting Saluan identity. Using Krippendorff’s content analysis, nine folktales were examined through interviews with cultural bearers, published collections, and digital recordings. Each narrative was coded into categories of moral values, social relations, cultural beliefs, and identity markers. The findings reveal that the tales embed lessons of honesty, responsibility, discipline, and respect for elders, while also warning against greed, betrayal, and disobedience. Stories such as Burung Popongku, Danau Dowiwi, and Banangsina highlight discipline, kinship, and resilience as core elements of Saluan worldview. At the same time, they critique negative behaviors that disrupt social harmony. The study concludes that Undu-unduon functions not only as entertainment but also as moral instruction and cultural preservation, offering insights into how oral traditions can be used to strengthen character education and sustain ethnic identity in modern contexts.
