PostHeaderIcon Pukul Manyapu

 

Pukul manyapu has been an annual ritual, celebrated on every 7th day of the month of Syawal in the Islamic calendar, or seven day after Idul Fitri. The ritual, full of religious nuance, is packaged attractively and performed by youths from both villages. In the function, they are divided into two groups and will whip their "opponents'" bodies with brooms, which will eventually cause wounds all over their bodies.

After the attraction, the bodies of all those participating in the function will be anointed all over with coconut oil that has been blessed with verses from the Koran. The oil used has restorative power to heal the wounds, which will leave absolutely no scars on the body
