Forms of local wisdom are very diverse, starting from certain ceremonies, certain crafts, and certain activities that are considered beneficial for human survival. Local wisdom indeed aims to maintain the original characteristics of each region and is beneficial for the people in that region, but how does Islam assess this local wisdom? The relationship between local wisdom and the Islamic religion is mutually sustainable towards environmental preservation by using kaombo in the Lambusango Forest, Buton. This research was conducted using qualitative methods with the type of phenomenological research. According to Creswell, qualitative research arises in the background of natural situations in which many human behaviors and events occur. The Ka'ombo ritual is included in al 'urf al-khash, namely customs that apply in society and in certain areas, in this case a special tradition in the Buton Sultanate and which continues to be preserved by the Buton people until now. As for its validity from a syara' perspective, the Ka'ombo ritual is included in Al-'urf al-shahih, namely customs that apply in society that do not conflict with the texts (verses or hadith), do not eliminate their benefits, and do not bring harm to they.

Laili Nur Anisah, Anditya Ariesta Wibisono — Sun, 29 Sep 2024 00:00:00 +0000

Law Number 12 of 2022 concerning Crimes of Sexual Violence (UU TPKS) was passed in April 2022 after waiting almost 12 years when it was submitted as an initial draft law to the DPR. Unlike other laws, TPKS Law was designed using a bottom-up system to address the problem of overcoming sexual violence in Indonesia, the number of which increases every year. However, not all regions in Indonesia will use the TPKS Law when cases of sexual violence occur. Aceh Province is the only province that, based on special autonomy, is allowed to have its criminal law called Qanun Jinayat. This research compares the regulations regarding preventing sexual violence contained in TPKS Law and the Aceh Qanun Jinayat. It looks at the threat to the protection of victims of criminal acts, especially victims of criminal acts of sexual violence. This research is normative legal research, which analyzes statutory regulations. The results of the study show that TPKS Law regulates the prevention of sexual violence more comprehensively than the Qanun Jinayat, which requires more comprehensive protection for victims than the Qanun Jinayat. There are also articles in the Qanun Jinayat that tend to cause revictimization, rather than protecting victims.

This article discusses the Kamang Mudiak community's reception of the Islamic teaching on the sunnah of akikah. The acceptance of the sunnah gave birth to the tradition of mambadakan paja. In this tradition, there is a process of transmission of the sunna that involves cultural agents. The discourse of contemporary hadith studies includes this study in the group of living hadith. This research uses a phenomenological approach. In analysing the materials, the author uses Fazlur Rahman's theory of sunna evolution (d. 1988) and Clifford Geertz's theory of symbolic interpretation (d. 2006). The results of this study reveal that the tradition of mambadakan paja was born evolutively. It has historical roots that go back to the tradition of welcoming the birth of a baby during the time of Muhammad. The formation of this tradition cannot be separated from the role of cultural agents such as ulama and ninik mamak. In its development, for the people of Kamang Mudiak this tradition is not only an Islamic identity but also a cultural identity. Through this tradition they give symbolic meaning as an expression of gratitude, prayer and hope and sacredness to something.
