Abstract

Harmony is an ideal condition that is consistently sought after, both within families and in society. This study aims to determine the role of religious leaders in fostering harmony between Hindus and Muslims, and to identify the factors that support and hinder religious harmony in Pelangan Village. This study employs a descriptive qualitative approach, utilising data collection techniques that include observation, interviews, and documentation. The results of the study indicate that interfaith harmony in Pelangan Village is well-established, despite the villagers adhering to different religions. This diversity strengthens solidarity and increases tolerance through positive social interactions. A concrete example of harmony in this village is the community's active participation in mutual assistance activities and mutual support for religious celebrations. This is also due to the active role of the village government and religious leaders as the main drivers in building communication, tolerance, and mutual understanding among residents. Both parties play a crucial role in resolving conflicts, upholding the values of togetherness, and fostering spaces for dialogue among religious communities. Collaboration between formal institutions and community leaders has proven effective in building social harmony amid diversity.

Abstract

The Ngumbuq tradition in Marong Village, East Praya District, Central Lombok Regency, is part of the cultural heritage that is still preserved today. This tradition is rich in deep symbolism, reflected in various elements, including actions, objects, and words, that accompany the procession. This study aims to uncover the symbolic meaning contained in the Ngumbuq tradition and to understand the underlying social, cultural, and religious values. The approach used in this study is qualitative, employing ethnographic methods through participatory observation, in-depth interviews with traditional leaders, religious figures, and community members involved in the tradition, as well as documentation of the procession. The findings reveal that every element in the Ngumbuq tradition carries a specific symbolic meaning. For example, the materials used in the procession symbolise purity, prayer, and hope. The procession reflects togetherness, solidarity, and respect for ancestors. In addition, the verbal expressions that accompany this tradition convey moral advice and religious values. This symbolic meaning not only serves as the cultural identity of the Marong Village community but also as a means of instilling life values, such as cooperation, gratitude, and strengthening social bonds. The Ngumbuq tradition is an example of local wisdom that successfully combines traditional elements and Islamic teachings in a harmonious manner, making it relevant in modern society. This study is expected to contribute to the preservation of local culture and serve as a reference for symbolic anthropology studies, particularly in the context of Lombok culture.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the forms of social relations between Muslims, Christians, and Hindus in Bugis Village, Sumbawa Regency, and to identify the factors that influence religious harmony. This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach, utilizing a field study and data collection methods that include observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings indicate that social relations between Muslims, Christians, and Hindus in Bugis Village are predominantly associative and harmonious, characterized by tolerance and a strong sense of brotherhood. This tolerance is evident in various community activities, including PKK programs, outreach initiatives, and mutual assistance. However, dissociative patterns also exist, primarily due to competition between the groups. Key factors supporting religious harmony include the active involvement of the community, religious leaders, and the government. Conversely, factors hindering harmony include religious fanaticism, low levels of education, and insufficient communication between religious groups. This study provides valuable insights into the importance of fostering harmonious social relations among different religious communities in Bugis Village.

Abstract

This study aims to analyse the increase in religiousness among the people of the Mesanggok hamlet through regular religious social activities. Previously, the level of religious observance in this village was relatively low, with many people neglecting their religious obligations and lacking knowledge of their faith due to their busy worldly lives. A qualitative approach was employed, utilizing data collection techniques that included observation, interviews, and documentation. The collected data were analysed descriptively with triangulation to ensure the validity of the information. The results of the study indicate that regular religious social activities, such as religious lectures, sholawat, dzikir, yasinan, and commemorations of important Islamic days, significantly increased the religiosity of the community. This improvement is reflected in increased participation in religious gatherings and sholawat, enhanced religious knowledge, and the application of religious values in social life, such as kindness, honesty, and mutual respect. The primary supporting factors are identity crisis and social change, while the main obstacles are the impact of globalization on the mindset of the younger generation.

Abstract

This study analyses the social interaction patterns of exclusive Salafi groups in building social cohesion in Rensing Raya Village, East Lombok Regency. Salafi groups prioritise exclusive interactions in social life, such as mutual assistance, humanitarian aid, and economic activities, without mixing their religious values in these activities. The exclusive normative attitude of Salafi groups makes them unwilling to compromise with other religious practices, thus forming clear boundaries between them and the local community. Nevertheless, Salafi groups adapt to social activities that do not directly conflict with their beliefs or worship, such as participating in village development. This study reveals that, although their interaction patterns tend to be closed in terms of religious values, Salafi groups remain active in the social and economic life of the community, maintaining a separation between their religious teachings and social life. Therefore, Salafi groups contribute to strengthening social cohesion through their participation in more general social activities, which in turn support more harmonious social relations in Rensing Raya Village.

Abstract

Early marriage (merarik kodeq) remains a prevalent phenomenon in Wanasaba Daya Village, Wanasaba District, East Lombok. One of the efforts made by the Sasak community to prevent early marriage is through the traditional Sembeq Senggeteng ritual. This ritual, which consists of incantations or mantras passed down through generations, is believed to possess symbolic and spiritual power to protect children, especially teenagers, from focusing on education and avoiding romantic relationships at a young age. This study aims to uncover the symbolic meaning embedded in the Sembeq Senggeteng ritual and its implementation process in preventing early marriage. The research approach employed is a descriptive qualitative one, utilizing data collection techniques such as observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. Data were analysed using George Herbert Mead's symbolic interactionism theory, which emphasises that symbolic meaning is formed through social interaction. The results of the study indicate that the Sembeq Senggeteng ritual is performed by traditional leaders or elders, who recite prayers or mantras believed to bind the hearts of children. This ritual process reflects social symbols rich in moral values and hopes, serving as a means of symbolic communication between parents and children. The ritual also reflects collective social values upheld by the community as a form of social control over adolescent behaviour. In conclusion, the Sembeq Senggeteng ritual holds a strong symbolic meaning, instilling moral messages and promoting social control, particularly in preventing early marriage. However, the challenges of the times and changes in the mindset of the younger generation are beginning to affect the effectiveness of this tradition.

Abstract

Indonesia, as a multicultural nation, has deeply rooted religious traditions in its people’s lives, among them the practice of grave pilgrimage. In Wora Village, Bima, the tradition of visiting the grave of Rade Naru symbolizes respect for ancestors and serves as a spiritual and social means of strengthening community solidarity. However, this practice creates tension between local culture and normative Islamic teachings, as some religious leaders consider it potentially syirik (polytheism). At the same time, the indigenous community maintains it as a sacred ancestral heritage. This study employed qualitative methods with a sociological approach. This study employed Max Weber’s theory of social action to analyze the traditional motivations, values, and affective aspects of the community in undertaking the pilgrimage. The results show that the pilgrimage to the grave of Rade Naru functions not only as a religious ritual but also as an arena for contestation of authority between traditional and religious leaders, as well as an instrument for strengthening collective identity. Thus, this tradition reflects the resilience of local culture amidst modernization and normative Islamic preaching, while also providing a space for dialogue between religion, culture, and the community’s social identity.

Abstract

The Syawalan Lopis tradition in Krapyak, Pekalongan, represents an expression of coastal Muslim religiosity by integrating religious rituals, social gatherings, and local culture into a unified communal celebration held on the 8th of Shawwal. In this tradition, lopis—typically recognized as a glutinous rice delicacy in other regions—is prepared as a giant lopis that serves as the ritual centerpiece. The event involves religious leaders, descendants of the tradition’s founder, local residents, and the municipal government, transforming Krapyak annually into a communal space where the religious and cultural identity and solidarity of coastal communities are celebrated. This study analyzes the practice and interpretation of Syawalan Lopis as an expression of coastal Islam, as well as the ways in which the tradition addresses social needs and reinforces cohesion within the coastal Muslim community in Pekalongan. A descriptive qualitative approach is employed, utilizing direct observation during Syawalan, interviews with tradition bearers, and examination of documents and literature related to the history and development of Syawalan Lopis. The findings demonstrate that the giant lopis is perceived as a symbol of brotherhood, blessing, and spiritual proximity to God. The tradition of sharing lopis and participating in Syawalan is viewed as both a social and religious responsibility, which encourages community participation and sustains social cohesion. Furthermore, Syawalan Lopis facilitates microeconomic activities for local vendors and entrepreneurs and serves as a city-identity icon in religio-cultural tourism promotion. This positions the tradition as a collaborative practice of coastal Islam that integrates religious, cultural, and socio-economic interests within a communal ritual perpetuated across generations.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the meaning of the Fire War tradition as a form of self-purification in the Nyepi ritual among the Hindu community in Mataram City. The Fire War tradition, held since 1819, is a symbolic ritual to ward off evil, remove negative energy, and purify oneself before Nyepi Day. The focus of this study includes: (1) how the Fire War tradition is carried out as a form of self-purification in the Nyepi ritual among the Hindu community in Mataram City, and (2) the meaning of the Fire War tradition as a form of self-purification in the Nyepi ritual among the Hindu community in Mataram City. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method with Victor Turner’s liminality theory as the basis for analysis, which includes three stages: separation, liminality, and reintegration. The results show that the Fire War tradition has a deep spiritual meaning, serving to purify oneself of bad traits and negative energy while also strengthening social solidarity among Hindus. In this tradition, fire symbolises spiritual cleansing and renewal, allowing Hindus to welcome Nyepi with a clean, calm soul. In addition to its religious value, this tradition also plays an important role in strengthening togetherness, reinforcing Hindu cultural identity, and preserving local wisdom amid the tide of modernisation.

Abstract

Religion and culture are inseparable entities in society. The dialogue between the two has always been an interesting topic of study, giving rise to various views and assessments within society. The dialogical relationship between local culture and religion cannot be separated from the historical development of Indonesian society, particularly the Sasak community. This is particularly relevant to understanding the religious traditions practised by the community in Pengadangan Village in the Betetulak tradition. The Betetulak tradition is a combination of religious activities and local traditions practised for generations. In this study, the author uses a qualitative method. The primary sources are drawn from field observations, interviews, and documentation. Secondary sources were obtained from book quotations, documents, archives, and other records. The main topics discussed in this study are, first, how religion and culture are related in the betetulak tradition in Pengadangan Village, and second, what are the noble values of religion and culture in the betetulak tradition? Based on the results of the study, the relationship between religion and culture in the betetulak tradition is a combination of religious values (religious beliefs) and local traditions (local traditions) that are neatly arranged within the framework of the Sasak community’s beliefs, which are carried out with religious values (divine values) and cultural values reflected in the betetulak tradition (adat gama), which seeks to build a unified relationship that is always accompanied by religious attitudes in community life.
