- Abstract
The encounter of Islam and culture in Bugis society has been widely studied by various groups. But how these encounters can shape the character of religious moderation in society has not been studied in depth. In fact, culturally religious ways have so far been one of the important elements that shape moderate religious practices. This study aims to: First, explain how these cultural religious ways form a moderate way of religion in Bugis society. Second, describing the challenges of cultural religion in the current situation of rampant religious radicalism, and third, showing the vital role of Gurutta, Anregurutta and the pangederreng system in reinforcing cultural Islam as well as religious moderation in society. This study was conducted by conducting qualitative research or field research. Emic data from the field is processed by analysis from below (grounded theory) as well as assisted by cultural Islamic theories that have existed so far. The results of the study show that culturally religious ways have so far smoothed the relationship between religion and local culture, so that there is no antipathy towards local culture, while also facilitating relations with different religious groups, because they do not demand much formalistic Islam. While the practice of cultural Islam can be strengthened again, if the agency roles of Gurutta and Anregurutta can be maximally reworked the pangederreng system to function again in society.
