Keislaman Suku Baduy Banten: Antara Islam dan Slam Sunda Wiwitan

Abstract

The focus of this research is to uncover Islamic life of Baduy
people, who are divided into three: Baduy Dalam(internal Baduy) which is
called Tangtu, and Baduy Luar (external Baduy)which is divided into two
tribes i.e. Panampingand Dangka. Compared to other first two Baduys,
Baduy Dangka is more intensive in having Islamization. However, in fact,
all Baduys have close relations to Islam, due to their original principle the
so-called Sunda Wiwitan, or Slam Sunda Wiwitan. Nevertheless, Sunda
Wiwitan (Slam Sunda Wiwitan) is still simple and sincretic. Even though
one of Baduy is Islamizing itself, the relationship with other Baduys is
respectable, and religious toleration in between them is well-mannered as
well.
