Multi-Parameter Approach to Determine the Floods Causes in North Luwu, South Sulawesi.

Abstract Floods occur annually in North Luwu, South Sulawesi Province, Indonesia. The exact cause of the flooding is yet to be known; thus, this study aimed to find the main factors causing floods in North Luwu using a multi-parameter approach. The methods applied are hydrological, flood susceptibility, and land use changes in the analysis. The return period and intensity duration frequency of rain (1983-2021) was used for hydrological analysis. Flood susceptibility is obtained from the processing of slope, elevation, rainfall, stream density, soil type, and land use parameters. Land use change was analyzed using the Climate Change Initiative and Land Cover (CCI LC) data in 2000 and 2015. The results of the 1-year rainfall return period in North Luwu were relatively high, namely 83 mm/day, the 2-year return period of 119 mm/day, 5 years of 142 mm/day, 10 years of 155 mm/day, and 100 years 184 mm/day. The results of the IDF analysis obtained that the early rainy hours showed an intensity of 41-46 mm/hour with a total of 259 mm/day, which was considered extreme. There is unity between the results of the correlation of flood events in 2021 with recorded rainfall of 64-153 mm/day. Flood susceptibility analysis shows the dominant high vulnerability in the downstream area of 101,337 Ha, medium vulnerability (208,545 Ha) in the middle stream, and low vulnerability of 57,719 Ha upstream. The high flood susceptibility map results followed the flood events distribution from 2017-2021, while there is a lack of change in the land use analysis.

A Inauspicious Month in Javanese Wedding Tradition in Luwu Utara, South Sulawesi: Perspective�of�Islamic�Law

Determining inauspicious days in Javanese marriage traditions is significant. Sometimes, this leads to debates and controversies from various perspectives as it is considered contrary to Islamic law. This research aims to examine the determination of inauspicious days in Javanese marriage traditions during the month of Muharram (Suro). This study employs an empirical juridical approach using theories of social change and Islamic legal theory, particularly social tradition ('urf) and public interest (maslahah). Data is collected through interviews and literature reviews. Subsequently, the data is analyzed using these theories through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing processes. The research results reveal that the determination of inauspicious days in marriage traditions is based on the societal belief in the existence of inauspicious days for couples marrying in the month of Suro. This belief is grounded in experiences and stories passed down through generations. On the other hand, the concept of maslahah refers to the welfare or benefit for humans. In the context of inauspicious days for marriage, maslahah refers to efforts to prevent conflicts between couples and families. Furthermore, from the perspective of Islamic law, prohibiting marriage in the month of Suro in North Luwu Regency is permissible because there are no prohibitions in the Quran or hadith against it. Such traditions in Islamic law are referred to as �urf shahih, which are good and permissible customs as long as they do not contradict sharia. The prohibition is valid if it is based on the motivation to obey parental advice (birr al-walidayn) and as a form of respect for deceased parents, and linking everything that happens to the will of Allah SWT. However, if the tradition contradicts sharia and harms faith, then the tradition cannot�be�practiced.

MATHEMATICS MODEL IN VITALITY ANALYSIS OF THE LIMOLA LANGUAGE

One of the regional languages in Tana Luwu, especially in North Luwu Regency, is the Limola language. Limola language is a regional language used in communication by the people of Sassa Village. This research utilizes the Pinasco and Romanelli (PR) model to analyze the vitality of the Limola language. The language's sustainability is assessed through a questionnaire with vitality indicators based on UNESCO. Meanwhile, birth and death rates are derived from statistical data from North Luwu. This research found that the model used can explain the possibility of using the Limola language by taking into the carrying capacity and average birth and death rates of users of the Limola language. There are three conditions found. The third condition, despite the birth and death rates of Limola language users being higher than those of people using other languages, the usage of the Limola language still decreases. This is because the language used to communicate as a child as an indicator of the carrying capacity of the Limola language, is very small. In addition, five out of the nine vitality indicators formulated by UNESCO are endangered, posing a threat to the survival of the Limola language
