| Summary: | As a local tourism destination, Rambu Solo has also become a source of economic income for the people of Tanah Toraja. In this in-depth analysis, the research illustrates how Islam views cultural diversity as a sign of God's greatness and encourages its people to celebrate and respect such diversity. This study aims to investigate Islamic views on the Rambu Solo ceremony, focusing on positive values such as tolerance, brotherhood, and intercultural mutual understanding reflected in interactions between local communities, tourists, and Muslim communities attending the ceremony. In addition, this study also aims to understand the positive economic impact of global tourism on these traditional ceremonies from an Islamic perspective, by assessing the positive contribution to local economic growth and the welfare of local communities. The results of this study reveal that Islam provides a view that supports respect for cultural diversity, positive values upheld, a positive economic role, and an important balance between local culture and religion in the context of Toraja Land. This research presents a better understanding of how Islam can play a role in respecting and understanding this phenomenon without neglecting religious principles, as well as its impact on Muslim societies and local communities. The analysis also emphasizes the complexity of the relationship between culture, religion, and global tourism in the context of Toraja Land. |
