Masjid sebagai sentral kegiatan keagamaan umat Islam tidak hanya menyajikan keindahan hanya dari sisi Islam, melainkan umat di luar agama Islam turut serta mewarnai keindahan dari masjid Islam itu sendiri. Salah satunya terwujud pada bangunan masjid Mantingan di Jepara.

Metode penelitian menggunakan deskriptif kualitatif, sumber data berupa dokumen dan informan. Teknik pengumpulan data berupa wawancara terbuka dengan juru kunci dari makam sekaligus pengurus masjid Mantingan dan observasi berupa pengamatan dan pencatatan.

Seorang arsitektur Cina sekaligus Ayah angkat dari Sultan Hadirin yang memadukan akulturasi budaya pada bangunan masjid berupa ornamen batu yang dipahat. Ornamen tersebut hasil dari kesenian Cina. Adapun akulturasi budaya terlihat pada bentuk bangunan masjid yang diadopsi dari rumah Jawa serta adanya gapura yang berasal dari kebudayaan Buda dan Islam. Nilai toleransi yang ditemui ada pada proses sejarah pembangunan masjid tersebut di antaranya adalah nilai menghargai, kerjasama, gotong royong, tolong menolong dan tidak adanya diskriminasi antara Islam, Jawa dan Cina maupun Buda. Adapun akulturasi budaya dimunculkan pada bangunan Masjid Mantingan berupa ornamen, Candi Bentar, penyangga, bedug maupun kentongan serta atap yang bersusun tiga.

“…We established and systematized dialectical codes [51] related to water and land management to identify coincidences and relationships in the ideas expressed by the study community [52]. This systematization made it possible to study the relationships between the established variables to develop cognitive maps [53], which we contrasted with results reported by reference studies related to ancestral knowledge and traditional of natural resource management practices.…”

The identification and analysis of mythical images and ancestral practices that make up the ethnos of a community allow us to know its ways of existing in the cosmos. The objective of this paper is to analyze the ancestral experiences associated with the dynamics of socio-environmental management that the Emberá Indigenous reserve (Chocó, Colombia) carries out for the conservation of water and land. This study is qualitative and ideographic. We also adopted an ethnographic approach to provide a detailed description of water and land management practices, which correspond to their cultural patterns. Using Atlas Ti V.6.0 software, we identify and analyze these cultural patterns. The results show that the ecosystemic relationships offered by the Emberá worldview are part of a true connection with their spiritual world, which fosters respect for the natural elements and understanding of universal natural laws. These relationships are manifested through gifts and penance. The Emberá beliefs and religion are a possible methodology for the sustainable management of water and land and, consequently, of the basin where they live. The success of their ethnodevelopment depends significantly on the power figures of their culture: the Jaibana (their gods), the elders, and the Emberá woman as a cultural agent. The Emberá worldview is possibly a valid instrument to enable the sustainable development of modern communities.

“…The Christian communities in Indonesia also practice funeral rites and rituals associated with local cultures by incorporating them into Christian rituals. For instance, in Tana Toraja, Sulawesi, a famous cultural ritual is the Rambu Solo , which may be interpreted as a funeral ceremony held at sunset (Baan et al, 2022 ). Specifically, in the Lantang Pangngan rite (part of Rambu Solo ), a person dearest to the deceased will sing a song of lamentation which shows that the deceased was very much loved by their family and community (Sudarsi et al, 2022 ).…”

Death, Funeral Rituals, and Stigma: Perspectives from Mortuary Workers and Bereaved Families

et al. 2023

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Deaths caused by COVID-19 have affected bereaved family members in several ways, including the inability to perform funeral rites and rituals. Understanding the dynamics and experiences of death and funerals of bereaved families and mortuary workers can lead to improvements in funeral services and the provision of social support for the affected families and mortuary workers. This study aimed to capture the experiences of mourning family members in Indonesia who lost a loved one due to COVID-19 and of mortuary workers who performed funerals according to COVID-19 protocols. Ten family members and 12 mortuary workers living in West Timor, Indonesia, were interviewed using a semistructured interview approach. Findings of the study show that mortuary workers were able to strictly implement the new funeral protocols. However, the rushed nature of these funerals led to resistance from families and prevented bereaved families from performing the usual cultural and religious funeral rituals. This, combined with stigma from their neighbors, led these families to have poor psychological wellbeing.
