Review

This study, "Earth Alms Tradition in Temulus Village: A Hadith Perspective on Historical and Spiritual Values," addresses a compelling topic at the intersection of local culture, religious practice, and historical preservation. The abstract clearly articulates the study's aim: to evaluate the "Earth Charity tradition" against Islamic teachings, understand its role in cultural preservation, and recognize its function as an expression of gratitude. The descriptive qualitative methodology, drawing on both primary interview data and secondary literature, appears well-suited to exploring such a complex socio-religious phenomenon. The promise of revealing how Islamic values and Hadith underpin this tradition, thereby illuminating religious social phenomena, is a strong point of interest. While the abstract highlights the successful integration of Islamic values and Hadith into the tradition, offering a foundation for understanding religious social dynamics, further elaboration within the full paper on the specific Hadith referenced and the precise interpretive framework used would significantly enhance its academic rigor. The intriguing finding that the community views *sedekah bumi* as a means of warding off evil, reflecting a blend of spiritual beliefs and local traditions, is a particularly rich area that warrants deeper critical analysis. Exploring the nuances of this syncretism—how these beliefs align with, diverge from, or complement mainstream Islamic teachings—would provide invaluable insights into folk Islam and local religious expressions. Overall, this research promises a valuable contribution to the fields of religious studies, anthropology, and cultural heritage. By meticulously examining the Earth Alms tradition in Temulus Village, the study offers a crucial case study for understanding how communities negotiate and integrate spiritual beliefs with inherited cultural practices. Its stated goal of increasing knowledge and encouraging the preservation of cultural heritage, especially among younger generations, underscores its practical relevance. The paper is well-positioned to shed light on the dynamic relationship between tradition, faith, and community resilience in contemporary Indonesian society.
