Implementasi Konsep Maslahah Mursalah dalam Analisis Tradisi Lokal: Studi Kasus Lempar Ayam di Gunung Pegat
Main Article Content
Abstract
This study examines the chicken throwing tradition carried out by the Gunung Pegat community in wedding ceremonies, using the perspective of Imam al-Ghazali's maslahah mursalah. This tradition is considered a symbol of respect for ancestral customs and prayers for the blessings of the lives of the bride and groom. This study aims to analyse the social and spiritual benefits of this tradition, which does not have an explicit basis in the Qur'an or Hadith but is acceptable because it brings benefits in accordance with the objectives of Islamic law, namely maqasid al-shariah. Based on interviews with the customary implementer M. Syifaul Anam and the traditional figure M. Khusnan, it was found that the chicken throwing tradition has a significant social dimension. In addition to being a form of alms to the surrounding community, this tradition also functions to strengthen social solidarity and maintain household harmony. In the perspective of maslahah mursalah, this tradition can be accepted as part of the local culture that is in accordance with the principles of maqasid al-shariah, especially in maintaining social welfare, peace of mind, and relationships between individuals. This study concludes that the chicken throwing tradition, although it does not have a direct basis in Islamic law, remains relevant in the local cultural context and is acceptable within the Islamic framework as long as it does not conflict with the basic teachings of the religion.
