MERIAM KARBIT DAN ROBO’-ROBO’: PELESTARIAN TRADISI IKONIS MELAYU KALIMANTAN BARAT DALAM PENCAPAIAN MAQASHID SYARI’AH
Abstract
The purpose of this article is to examine the iconic traditions of Malay Pontianak, namely the carbide cannon and robo'-robo', in achieving the maqasid al-Shari'ah (objectives of Islamic law). This article is an empirical legal research with a maqasid al-Shari'ah approach. The method used is descriptive qualitative. The research results show that the iconic traditions of Malay Pontianak are in accordance with the principles of maqasid al-Shari'ah. This fact is evidenced by the preservation of five main aspects of human life, including the growth of religious values that provide steadfastness in faith towards Allah SWT (hifdz al-din), the development of a characterful soul, physical and spiritual health (hifdz al-nafs), contributing to the development of new knowledge through positive analytical thinking (hifdz al-aql), contributing to a sense of gratitude and a good understanding of wealth management (hifdz al-mal), and preserving the culture and social environment to achieve a peaceful way of life (hifdz al-nasbi).
