“…Although in the case of Madraism, some studies refer to the Madrais teaching as a blend of nationality values in Javanese and Sundanese spiritual tradition (Komarudin, 2017), or a combination of the elements of Islamic values and early Sundanese culture (Qodim, 2017; Rosidin, 2000; Syukur & Qodim, 2017). Due to its unique characteristics of teaching and history formation, scholars refer to the Sunda Wiwitan in different terms, including local religion (Hurriyah, 2022; Ismail, 2015; Muttaqin, 2013), indigenous religion (Maarif, 2017; Rosidin, 2000; Swazey, 2017), religious group/sect (Aripudin, 2020; Qodim, 2017; Waluyajati, 2017), and even religious‐sectarian and ethno‐nationalist group, asserting that it is a new type of religious‐based movement combining the elements of syncretism and nationalism (Kartodirdjo, 1973; Komarudin, 2017).…”
