This study discusses the aspects of maqashid sharia in the Lelang Kue tradition of the Kuang Dalam Village community, Rambang Kuang District, Ogan Ilir Regency, South Sumatra. The cake auction tradition is part of a series of Malay community wedding customs that function as a medium of mutual cooperation and social solidarity in helping to finance the wedding reception. The problem in this study stems from the shift in the meaning of tradition due to the development of modernization and the increasing culture of individualism, while studies on the cake auction tradition from the perspective of maqashid sharia are still very limited. This study aims to analyze the practice of the cake auction tradition and examine the values of maqashid sharia contained in it based on the thoughts of Al-Ghazali and As-Syatibi. The study uses a qualitative method with a sociological and conceptual approach. Data were obtained through observation, interviews, and documentation, then analyzed using interactive techniques through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the study indicate that the cake auction tradition is in accordance with the principles of maqashid sharia, namely protecting religion, life, mind, honor, and property. This tradition also embodies the values of mutual assistance, social solidarity, economic protection, and strengthening social relations in the community, thus categorizing it as al-'urf al-sahih, which aligns with Islamic law. This research contributes to strengthening the study of maqashid sharia in local Malay traditions, particularly the cake auction tradition in Kuang Dalam Village. This study integrates the perspectives of Al-Ghazali and As-Syatibi and serves as a reference for preserving traditions based on social, economic, and religious values that align with Islamic principles in the modern era.
