Kerik salamat is Islamic values living in the society since it is a mirror of the ideal of cultural law of the society. In the nation spirit theory, a law should be born from the nation/society spirits. Good quality regulations should posses three basic principles: juridical, sociological, and philosophical. The value of kerik salamat from an Islamic epistemological dimension spreads in the whole life of the community so that their level of religiousity, karabat (kinship) and saling sating (respect one another) may be maintained sustainably by the people of Sumbawa.
