Indonesia: A unique tradition in Kasepuhan Cirebon by Kuncoro Widyo Rumpoko
There is a unique moment of Eid al-Fitr prayer in Kasepuhan Cirebon, unique not because of the different procedures, but the prayers that the family of this palace do twice. While that happens to the general public, Eid prayer is done once, either in the open field or in the mosques. The tradition stems from the existence of government suggestions during the New Order which states that the sermon uses the Indonesian language. While the tradition that prevails in the palace is hereditary is to use the Arabic language.
