Abstract:This article examines the transformation of the meaning of the Quran in the context of death rites and death commemorations in Javanese society, especially in Central Java and Yogyakarta, during the period 2000–2023. This…
his research approach is qualitative by utilizing ethnographic data, archival studies, ritual documentation, and in-depth interviews with ritual practitioners. The use of the Quran, which was originally a sacred Islamic text with normative content, has undergone a transformation of meaning when adapted into traditional Javanese rites. The process of cultural acculturation that occurred illustrates the dynamics between ancestral traditions and Islamic values, which provide space for the reinterpretation of religious symbols by local communities (Anderson, 2003; Suryadi, 2011). The historical analysis method and the theory of cultural transformation proposed by Clifford Geertz are used to explain the evolution of the use of the sacred text and highlight the role of ritual as a medium for negotiating meaning between cultures. The results of the study show that the insertion of Quranic verses into Javanese mantras not only functions as a sacred element, but also as a tool for social legitimacy and cultural identity of the Javanese people. This finding opens up opportunities for further study on the integrative role of ritual in shaping religious and cultural identity in Indonesia.

k titles in everyday life. With social problems becoming more numerous and complicated, this research will relate them to existing social realities and will be linked to the values that exist in Javanese suluk. In this research, we will discuss the moral values of Suluk which are adopted from a literary sociology approach to analyze the moral values contained in Javanese Suluk poetry, especially in two poems entitled “Serate Siswa”, “Introspection” and “Ojo Dumeh” . The focus of this research is on religious, social moral values and human interaction with God as reflected in these literary works. This research uses qualitative methods with descriptive analysis techniques to describe and explore information related to the moral values in the two poems. The results of research on the three titles of Syair Suluk Jawa show that the poem “Serate Disciple” emphasizes the importance of manners, simplicity, and respect for others, by describing the relationship between students and teachers as a reflection of the relationship between humans and God. On the other hand, the poems, “Introspection” and “Ojo Dumeh” highlight the wisdom in looking at age and death, reminding people to continue to worship selflessly, and live life humbly. In conclusion, Suluk Javanese poetry, through sociological analysis of literature, is able to convey a deep moral message regarding human relationships with God and others. This research contributes to the understanding of the moral values contained in Javanese literary works, as well as maintaining and introducing the uniqueness of Javanese culture to society.
Abstract:This study is grounded in the importance of recognizing local wisdom-based educational practices that continue to exist amid the forces of modernization and globalization. The research problem focuses on how ethnopedagogical…
ical practices are implemented by the stone carving community in Muntilan, Magelang Regency, as an alternative educational model capable of transmitting knowledge across generations in a sustainable manner. The study employs a qualitative approach using a case study method to explore community-based learning processes through family apprenticeship, direct observation, and practical experience that integrates technical skills, aesthetic sensitivity, spiritual values, and Javanese philosophy. The findings reveal a distinctive learning ecology that emphasizes the internalization of tacit knowledge, character formation, and the close relationship between learning processes and socio-cultural life. The community also demonstrates adaptive resilience through its ability to adopt innovation without abandoning core cultural principles. The conclusion confirms that ethnopedagogical practices among the Muntilan stone carvers represent an effective and relevant contextual education model to support the preservation of intangible cultural heritage while addressing the challenges of modern education. The novelty of this study lies in the integration of ethnopedagogy with traditional craft practices as a holistic and sustainable non-formal education system, as well as its contribution to the discourse on decolonizing education and strengthening culturally based vocational education policies.
Abstract:The wetonan tradition is a birth calculation system based on the Javanese calendar, a cultural heritage of the Javanese indigenous people that is rich in spiritual values and local wisdom. In this context, the wetonan tradition…
adition is not only a series of ceremonies or astrological calculations, but also a cultural heritage that includes local wisdom values and spiritual beliefs that have been passed down from generation to generation. In the current era of globalization, the wetonan tradition is faced with various challenges that threaten its survival. Changes in people’s attitudes and mindsets, urbanization, and doubts about traditional values are some of the main challenges. Shifting values and priorities in society, changes in value and belief systems, and doubts about the role of tradition in the era of globalization are some of the main challenges. However, preserving the wetonan tradition is crucial to maintaining a rich and diverse cultural identity and strengthening the solidarity of Javanese indigenous communities. To maintain and face the challenges of the wetonan tradition remaining relevant and valued by the community, concrete steps are needed. In facing this challenge, it is important to continue to educate the public about the cultural and spiritual values contained in the wetonan tradition, as well as to replant these values to strengthen the sustainability of the wetonan tradition amid the ongoing flow of modernization and globalization. Thus, the wetonan tradition can continue to live and develop as an integral part of the cultural identity of Javanese society. The preservation of this tradition not only ensures the continuity of a rich cultural heritage, but also strengthens solidarity and togetherness in Javanese indigenous communities. Therefore, measures to maintain and preserve the wetonan tradition need to be continuously strengthened to ensure that this cultural heritage remains alive and relevant for future generations.

data dan informasi dengan bantuan bermacam-macam material yang terdapat di ruang perpustakaan, seperti buku buku, majalah-majalah, dokumen, catatan dan kisah-kisah sejarah dan lain-lainnya. Adapun hasil dari pembahasan ini yaitu Proses penyebaran Islam di Tatar Sunda tidak seluruhnya diterima di beberapa tempat, masih terdapat komunitas yang bertahan dalam ajaran leluhurnya seperti masyarakat Baduy. Mereka adalah komunitas yang tidak mau memeluk Islam dan terkungkung di satu wilayah religius yang khas. Masuknya agama Islam ke Tatar Sunda menyebabkan terpisahnya komunitas penganut ajaran Sunda Wiwitan yang taat dengan mereka yang kemudian menganut Islam. Ritual keislaman masyarakat Sunda dan keyakinannya masih terdapat pengaruh dari ajaran leluhur seperti meminta pada roh orang baik yang telah meninggal, namun ada yang berpendapat bahwa meminta pada roh orang yang meninggal tersebut hanyalah sebagai penyampai kepada Allah atau dalam kajian Islam disebut dengan tawassul. Kemudian terdapat juga acara peringatan Muludan atau kelahiran Nabi Muhammad Saw yang mana peringatan tersebut juga terdapat ajaran leluhur yang bertentangan Islam, maka acara Muludan tersebut diubah dengan cara memberikan ceramah tentang kisah kelahiran dan kehidupan Nabi Muhammad Saw.

donesian in everyday life functions not only as a means of communication, but also as a representation of the community's social identity. This study aims to analyze the multilingual communication practices of Central Java–West Java border communities and to explain the role of language in representing community social identity. The study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a literature review method supported by social-contextual reflection. Data were obtained from various scientific sources discussing multilingual communication, social identity, intercultural communication, bilingualism, and multilingualism. The analysis was carried out through the stages of data reduction, theme categorization, meaning interpretation, and conclusion drawing. The findings show that border communities flexibly use Javanese, Sundanese, and Indonesian according to the context of interaction, social relations, and communication needs. The practices of code switching and code mixing are important parts of daily communication as forms of social and cultural adaptation. In addition, language use functions as a symbol of cultural identity, a means of identity negotiation, and a mechanism of social integration in a multicultural environment. The findings affirm that multilingual communication is a representation of dynamic social identity and reflects the ability of border communities to maintain social harmony amid cultural diversity.

ik dalam tradisi yang berkontribusi pada masyarakat etnis Jawa di Desa Bandar Setia. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan deskriptif, data diperoleh melalui observasi, wawancara, dan dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tradisi donasi adalah praktik timbal balik berdasarkan kewajiban memberi, menerima, dan membalas. Donasi diberikan dalam bentuk uang, barang, atau tenaga sebagai dukungan kepada penyelenggara perayaan pernikahan. Tradisi ini tidak hanya berfungsi meringankan beban ekonomi, tetapi juga memperkuat solidaritas dan memperkuat jaringan sosial antar warga. Mekanisme respons yang tertunda membuat hubungan timbal balik berlangsung secara berkelanjutan. Keberlanjutan tradisi donasi dipengaruhi oleh kebiasaan turun-temurun, hubungan kekerabatan, serta kondisi ekonomi masyarakat. Meskipun mengalami penyesuaian akibat perubahan zaman, tradisi ini tetap bertahan karena didukung oleh nilai-nilai kebersamaan dan identitas budaya yang kuat dalam kehidupan masyarakat.
