Abstract

This article aims to get the concept of Minangkabau dance forms in the context of ABS-SBK (Adaik Basandi Syarak, Syarak Basandi Kitabullah) values. Since now on, the Ninik Mamak (mother's brother and her man relatives), scholars and clever men in West Sumatra are working to develop ideas about the philosophy of ABS-SBK (custom derived from Islamic law, Islamic law derived from the Quran) in all aspects of life. How is it reflected in a dance? To answer this question, qualitative approach had been done by taking the case of six prominent traditional dances as Minangkabau popular dances. The data were collected through focus group discussion, observation and interviews. Through the analysis of triangulation, the credible data was expected to get. The results of the research show that the ideal dancers of Minangkabau dance are men with motion derived from martial arts and the traditional dress which is in accordance with Salingka nagari (custom in their community).
