Abstract

Baduy adalah adalah salah satu dari suku asli Indonesia yang tinggal di provinsi Banten, mereka sangat kuat memegang teguh pikukuh karuhun (tradisi leluhur). Salah satu dari hukum adat mereka adalah kewajiban untuk ngahuma (menaman padi di ladang), aktifitas ini adalah ibadah dan rukun wiwitan. Permasalahan yang muncul adalah jumlah mereka bertambah namun luas lahan tetap, dampaknya luas tanah garapan menyempit, pola pengolahan lahan tidak optimal, sehingga berdampak pada hasil panen yang tidak dapat memenuhi kebutuhan. Akankah hukum adat ngahumaakan tetap berjalan dalam menghadapi dilema ini? Solusi apa yang bisa dilakukan agar hukum adat mereka tetap lestari, serta kebutuhan ekonomi mereka juga tetap terpenuhi? Penelitian ini menggunakan data kualitatif, di mana data diperoleh melalui observasi, wawancara dan kajian dokumen. Data diperoleh melalui wawancara dan analisa induktif sehingga menghasilkan data yang kredibel. Triangulasi data digunakan untuk memastikan data bisa dipertanggungjawabkan sehingga kesimpulan dari riset ini bermanfaat bagi stake holder. Kesimpulan dari riset ini adalah bahwa jumlah Suku Baduy semakin bertambah padahal lahan untuk ngahuma tetap. Padahal bagi mereka ngahuma adalah suatu kewajiban adat yang tidak bisa dilanggar. Beberapa solusi sudah dilakukan, membeli atau menyewa lahan di luar Tanah Ulayat, membatasi bera, membagi lahan kepada anggota keluarga. Namun justru muncul masalah baru, kondisi lahan yang kurang subur dan kebutuhan beras yang tida terpenuhi. Maka solusi yang peneliti tawarkan adalah; mengharapkan kepada pemerintah Kab. Lebak untuk memberikan lahan huma bagi suku Baduy.

Abstract

This study aims to see how the siri' culture is the philosophy of life for the Bugis people in living their lives. In addition, in this study, the siri' attitude will be reviewed from the point of view of contemporary Islamic values. This research is a qualitative research with a literature study approach. Various references related to siri' culture and Islamic values ​​about that culture to how the implementation of siri' culture is currently used as material for this research study. The results showed that there was a correlation between the Bugis people's philosophy of life in the siri' culture and Islamic values. The relationship lies in a condition where a person must always place themselves according to their nature. Always instill in yourself the nature of siri 'so that the pattern of life can run as well as possible. In Islam, cities are commanded to always obey Allah's commands and stay away from His prohibitions. If someone has siri' nature, then that person will always behave in accordance with the corridors of applicable laws and norms. However, currently the siri' culture has experienced a shift in meaning. Various behaviors that were once very hard to do, are now considered normal and even become something to be proud of. Therefore, we should return the dignity of the siri culture as it should be.

Abstract

This article discusses the teaching of Islam through the integration of pesantren and mosques functions, focusing on South Sulawesi. This study is directed to see the significance of teaching in pesantren and mosques in producing and supporting consistency of religious moderation in Indonesia. This study uses a descriptive-analytical method, by applying the theory of cultural reproduction of Pierre Bourdieu, which includes arena and habitus as the main components, of which there is capital. From this, this study concludes that Islamic teaching in pesantren and mosques carried out by ulema has a strong significance in carrying out consistency of religious moderation in South Sulawesi, even in the Indonesian context. The social capital of the ulema in pesantren and mosques builds a social structure that places the ulema as local leaders (agents) in forming a moderate religious model. The significance of teaching Islam further becomes a great opportunity in maintaining and developing religious moderation in Indonesia which is carried out together with the government. The collaboration between the government and the ulema indicates the need for agreement in understanding the urgency of religious moderation in Indonesia. In the agreement, the government as the provider of facilities and infrastructure supports the Islamic teaching movement by the ulema. This is as happened in the process of teaching Islam at the beginning of Islamization in Indonesia, including in South Sulawesi.

Abstract

Natural resources and the environment are often neglected as targets of science that continue to be exploited. Environmental ethics is an attitude and responsibility that must be possessed by every human being towards his environment. There is a lot of environmental damage caused by human activities in both developed and developing countries. Islam as one of the religions that tries to realize the internalization of values ​​of concern for the environment must be carried out by humans as followers of religion. In the reality of daily life, humans will be very dependent on their natural environment, for example, human dependence on water (rivers). The behavior of people who throw garbage anywhere is suspected to be another factor causing flooding. This research examines how the community's religious activities are related to concern for the environment in efforts to prevent natural disasters such as floods which can maintain the sustainability of the community's environment in the Cibanten Watershed (DAS). This study uses a descriptive qualitative method of observing religious activities using an Interpretative Phenomenology approach observing every religious activity and practice of community environmental awareness as the object of research. The results of this study indicate that the religious activities of the people in the Cibanten River Basin (DAS) where the majority of the people are Muslims, from the religious activities of the people when viewed from their religious patterns are classified as inclusive and pluralist. Meanwhile, the activities of caring for the environment for the people who live in the Cibanten Watershed (DAS) are still very concerning. People tend to ignore the Cibanten River, for example, there are still many people who throw garbage into the Cibanten River.
