Description
Summary:Abstract Minangkabau nagari (local state resembling village) serve as the lowest level of administration in the Indonesian government as well as the basis for the implementation and preservation of traditional values based on Islamic sharia. Nagari is not only led by Wali Nagari as the formal leader but also balanced by Tungku Tigo Sajarangan—a term for three leaders in the society; Niniak Mamak, Alim Ulama, and Cadiak Pandai—and Bundo Kanduang as the social leader. Each element has to cooperate and contribute according to their tasks to achieve the goal of wealthy, prosperous, secure, and peaceful Nagari community. Those functions will work well if each leader understands, comprehends, and implements the cultural and religious values as mentioned in Minangkabau catchphrase “Adat Basandi Syarak, Syarak Basandi Kitabullah.” Key words: Nagari, Tungku Tigo Sajarangan, Bundo Kanduang, culture, Syarak Abstrak Nagari di Minangkabau selain berfungsi sebagai pusat pemerintahan terendah dalam wilayah Republik Idonesia juga merupakan basis penanaman dan pelestarian nilai-nilai adat dan  syarak. Kepemimpinan Nagari tidak hanya dilaksanakan oleh Wali Nagari dan perangkat-peangkatnya sebagai pimpinan formal tapi juga oleh forum Tigo Tungku Sajarangan (Niniak Mamak, Alim Ulama dan Cadiak Pandai) ditambah dengan unsur-unsur Bundo Kanduang sebagai pimpinan sosial. Masing-masing unsur harus saling bekerjasama dan bahu membahu sesuai fungsinya untuk mewujudkan cita-cita menuju kehidupan masyarakat Nagari yang makmur, sejahtera, aman, damai dan sentosa. Fungsi-fungsi tersebut akan dapat berjalan dengan baik dan lancar apabila masing-masing unsur memahami, menghayati dan mengamalkan nilai-nilai adat dan syari’at Islam seperti tertuang dalam ungkapan “Adat Basandi Syarak- Syarak Basandi Kitabullah.   Kata kunci: Nagari, Tungku Tigo Sajarangan, Bundo Kanduang, Adat, Syarak
