Abstract

This article discusses the Maleman tradition which aims to commemorate the night of Lailatul Qadr in the Sasak Lombok Muslim community. Researchers emphasize understanding and increasing sensitivity to the phenomena seen to reveal the meaning behind the Maleman Tradition for each diverse individual. So, the study focuses on the community's view of the tradition by using Edmund Husserl's phenomenological approach. In general, research on the Maleman Tradition has been carried out a lot, such as in research such as in Hayadi's research which tries to reveal how the maleman tradition is practiced based on religious texts and motivated by local customs and culture through the frame of living hadis.The findings of this study are that the Maleman Tradition is a practice based on normative arguments and historical reasons as a religious practice that has taken root in the dynamics of the socio-cultural life of the Sasak Muslim community. Maleman tradition is preserved as an effort to welcome the night of Lailatul Qadr as a form of harmonization between religion and custom. Data from this qualitative research was obtained from observation, interviews and documentation. Through this tradition, the community has implemented Qur'a>nic values that have implications for aspects of religiosity and can foster a social spirit that builds harmony and togetherness.
