Abstract

The Bima people are known to be very religious, one of whom is the Bima woman who always covers her private parts. One of the famous intimate coverings in Bima is using a sarong called Rimpu. Rimpu is a way of dressing for the Bima people who use the typical Bima sarong. Rimpu is a series of clothing that uses two pieces (two ndo`o) sarongs. The two sarongs are for the bottom like a skirt and the top like a headscarf. The reason behind the researchers conducting research on the rimpu tradition was because the researchers saw that the rimpu had faded due to the development of globalization. In this case, the rimpu has a very high religious value. The aim of this research is that researchers want to know the implementation of the rimpu tradition among women of the Mbojo tribe in Ncera Village, Belo District, Bima Regency and the religious values ​​contained in it. This research uses a qualitative approach with an ethnographic type of research. The results obtained are that Rimpu is clothing that covers the private parts made from Sarong material. Rimpu has existed in Bima since Islam first entered and was applied to the sultanate in the land of Bima. Rimpu is divided into two types, namely Rimpu colo and Rimpu Mpida. Rimpu also contains religious values, namely the value of obedience to Allah SWT, the value of self-confidence, the value of respect and the value of creativity. Rimpu has a dual function in responding to current developments, as a religious identity, a characteristic of Bima, and a protector of women in interacting with the opposite sex. Currently, the government is trying to preserve it by holding a cultural parade every year.
