This study aims to explore the meaning of religiosity in Reak Traditional Art as part of Islamic da'wah in the Sundanese Region. This study employed a qualitative research method. The findings indicate that Reak Traditional Art performers have experiences of witnessing and participating in Reak performances through the prayers recited during the bubuka ritual, as well as observing and playing the dogdog traditional musical instrument, which symbolizes an invitation to perform the five daily prayers. In terms of the because motive, the performers were exposed to religious values, gained Islamic knowledge, and recognized the integration of entertainment and Islamic values. Meanwhile, their in-order-to motive includes deepening their religious experience and contributing to Islamic da'wah, internalizing Islamic values and becoming role models for the community, and strengthening their faith in Allah. Reak Traditional Art performers interpret Reak not merely as a form of performing art and entertainment, but also as a space for experiencing religiosity and a medium of Islamic da'wah, as Islamic values can be communicated and conveyed to the Sundanese community through Reak Traditional Art.References
