The Existence of Mèkol Nyo’on Formula in Tradition of Inheritance Division in Madura
Abstract: The tradition of the
inheritance division in Madura knows a term namely mèkol nyo’on formula or
formula 2:1. However, nowaday, the existence of that formula is very difficult
to find in its implementation, although it still very sticks in each individual
mind until now. This research describes what kind of traditions that have
replaced the mekol nyo’on formula and why it happens in Madurese society whom
are well known as very religious society. This research takes place in
Pamekasan regency where most of the populations are moslem. By implementing
sociological-descriptive approach, this research concludes that the tradition
of mèkol-nyo’on formula has been replaced by the different formula, which
emphasizes more on the goodness and benefits to all the heirs regardless of
gender. with the main standard of equality in economic prosperity and humanity
among fellow brothers in the family, where men and women have the same
opportunity.
