Air Doa dalam Tradisi Pembacaan Hizib Nahdhatul Wathan: Studi Living Qur’an di Desa Sembalun Bumbung, Lombok Timur

Abstract

This article discusses the phenomenon of "air doa" (prayer water) in the tradition of reading the hizib Nahdlatul Wathan (NW) in Sembalun Bumbung. Several research questions are posed to answer the forms and typologies of the reception of the Quran, as well as the role of local leaders in the transmission and transformation of knowledge regarding this tradition to the community. In this research, the author employs a qualitative phenomenological approach and the theory of the reception of the living Quran. Data collection is carried out through interviews, observations, and documentary studies. The results of the analysis indicate that the functional (practical) reception of the people of Sembalun Bumbung is evident in their beliefs about the efficacy of prayer water in the tradition of reading the hizib NW, including its use for healing, health, agricultural fertility, and intellectual blessings. In this context, the local leader is TGKH. Zainuddin Abdul Madjid, who plays the role of the carrier and teacher of the hizib NW in Sembalun Bumbung. The process of transmitting and transforming knowledge related to prayer water in the tradition of reading the hizib NW is closely tied to the local leader's knowledge of the history of healing during the time of the Prophet, the Companions, and early scholars, as well as the existing Sasak belian tradition in Sembalun Bumbung. The phenomenon of prayer water in the tradition of reading the hizib NW demonstrates that the Quran is alive and integrated into the everyday life of the people of Sembalun Bumbung.
