Abstract

This study examines the practice of giving and distributing Popolo as a traditional marriage payment and explores why the people of Sampuabalo Village, Siontapina District, Buton Regency, continue to mention the entire value of Popolo as mahr in the marriage contract (ijab kabul). The study is motivated by the practice of declaring the full value of Popolo as mahr during the marriage contract, even though the amount is subsequently distributed among several parties according to customary rules. This practice raises questions concerning the community’s understanding of the status of Popolo and the wife’s ownership rights over the mahr. The study aims to describe the practice of giving and distributing Popolo and analyze the reasons behind the community’s continued use of its full value in the marriage contract. This research employs a sociological approach and a field research method. Data were collected through interviews with individuals involved in the Popolo tradition, including customary leaders, religious leaders, family members, married couples, and representatives of the Office of Religious Affairs (Kantor Urusan Agama, KUA). The data were analyzed descriptively using Max Weber’s theory of social action, particularly traditional action and value-rational action. The findings indicate that the giving and distribution of Popolo follow customary rules passed down through generations. Its value is determined through family deliberations, after which the entire agreed amount is declared as mahr in the marriage contract. However, the amount is subsequently distributed among family members and other parties according to customary rules, meaning that the wife does not receive the entire amount declared in the contract. The community’s continued adherence to this practice is associated with ancestral traditions, the guidance of customary leaders, and the perception of Popolo as a symbol of family honor and social status. According to Weber’s theory, this practice primarily reflects traditional action, while the preservation of family honor and customary identity can be understood through value-rational action. This study demonstrates that the continuity of the Popolo tradition is influenced by the strong position of customary norms and the community’s understanding of mahr. Therefore, greater understanding is needed regarding the relationship between customary preservation and the wife’s rights to mahr under Islamic law.
