Abstract

This study examines the acculturation of Islamic values and Sundanese traditions in the pilgrimage practices at Patilasan Sri Gading, Gua Anteg Sukapura, Tasikmalaya. Islam in Tatar Sunda historically developed through a peaceful cultural approach that harmonized with local wisdom. Using a descriptive qualitative method, this research draws on field observations, interviews with the 11th-generation kuncen (traditional caretaker), and a review of anthropological and local historical literature. The findings reveal a harmonious integration between Islamic devotional practices—such as prayer (doa), dzikir, and tahlil and Sundanese cultural elements, including the use of incense, reverence for ancestors, and nature-based spiritual symbolism. This synthesis demonstrates Islam’s adaptability in engaging with local traditions without compromising its theological essence. The study concludes that pilgrimage practices at Patilasan Sri Gading sustain a dynamic balance between Islamic spirituality, the preservation of Sundanese cultural identity, and the reinforcement of social solidarity within the Sukapura community.
