Abstract

Wedding traditions in Indonesia are very diverse, one of which is the “Dau Balak” tradition in Lampung traditi onal marriage (pepadun). “Dau Balak” are wedding expenses that must be prepared by the prospective husband before carrying out the marriage contract, these costs must be met and are not part of the dowry. This tradition is interesting to study in more depth because it is not found in the literature on marriage jurisprudence (munakahat). This article was written based on field research using descriptive-qualitative methods using a phenomenological approach. The “Dau Balak” tradition will not be found in the study of marriage jurisprudence, but this tradition can be studied using the approach used by al-Syâthibî. Research data was obtained through observation, interviews and documentation. The research results show that the “Dau Balak” tradition has been carried out for generations by the people of Lampung. They still do it as an appreciation for the cultural heritage of their ancestors. Through al-Muwâfaqât fî Ushûl al-Ahkâm, al-Syâthibî divides tradition into two parts, namely: traditions established by the Shari’a (al-‘âdah al-syar'iyyah) and traditions not found in the Shari’a (al-‘âdah al-jâriyyah). The “Dau Balak” tradition is included in the al-‘âdah al-jâriyyah category, namely a tradition that has been passed down from generation to generation and Islam does not specifically discuss this tradition. This tradition can be accepted by Islamic law because it has a good purpose and brings benefit to humans. The “Dau Balak” tradition is part of the nation’s cultural treasures which can be preserved as a typical marriage identity of the Lampung people (pepadun).
