Abstract

The inter-religion relationship does not always become a constraint in implementing a tradition. This research aimed to analyze social integration between Islam and Hindu adherents through Perang Topat (Topat War) Tradition in West Lombok in Sasak ethnic people. This qualitative research with case study method approach processed qualitative data collected from the field through observation, in-depth interview and documentation. The result showed that Islam and Hindu religion adherents believe that Pura and Kemalik Lingsar belonged to both of them mutually in organizing Perang Topat tradition. Nampah Kaoq activity is the slaughtering of a buffalo as a sacrifice for Islam and Hindu adherents symbolizing the religious harmony and maintaining commonality relation between religious communities in organizing Perang Topat tradition. This tradition serves as a sign and a cultural pattern to support social integration between Islam and Hindu adherents.
