THE MANRE MA'UDA TRADITION IN POMPANUA VILLAGE, BONE REGENCY (REVIEW OF ISLAMIC BELIEFS)

Abstract

This study discusses the Islamic doctrinal review of the manre ma'uda tradition in Pompanua Village, Bone Regency, using field research methods with a qualitative approach, combining socio-cultural, theological, and philosophical approaches. Data was collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, and data analysis was carried out in the form of data reduction, data presentation, and data verification. The results of the study show that the history of the manre ma'uda tradition originated from a person named Ma'uda who had the expertise to help pregnant women give birth, so that after his death, the community carried out the manre ma'uda ritual as a form of respect. In the view of the Pompanua Village community, the manre ma'uda tradition is carried out as a form of prayer and hope that the delivery process will run smoothly and that the mother and baby will be in good condition. This procession involves the mother, father, and traditional leaders. The tradition begins with the recitation of prayers, such as shalawat, al-Fatihah, al-Ikhlas, al-Falaq, an-Nas, and Ayat Kursi. This tradition is seen as an expression of gratitude and a spiritual practice that does not conflict with Islamic beliefs, as long as it is carried out based on Islamic teachings and avoids elements of polytheism.
