social change in the areas of tourism destinations, among the changes in the economic system, social system  
even includes a cultural system of society. But liberalism also becomes a challenge to the people of Indonesia  
to create innovation new developments in the world of tourism so as to not compete with other countries.  
The Community of Indonesia has Foundation of lifethat is the form pancasila which gave values that are the  
deity and humanity. The values underlying these norms are held by the public. So also in the villagers of  
Senggigi as citizens of Indonesia has given rise to norms that are based on the values of pancasila. However,  
the liberalization of tourism has entered the social life of the community of Senggigi village. This brings the  
impact on the social life of the community, because its current culture from outside who entered including the  
ideology of other countries. This is the one who can destroy the order of the ideology of a society that has a  
strong held so that the values of pancasila is starting to wear off.

and dynamic services to be developed in this market. Halal tourism offers travel packages and destinations  
tourism that are equipped with a design to serve the Muslims in considering their needs. Halal tourism integrates

and khurafat. Fourth, free from immoral. Fifth, maintain security and convenience. Sixth,maintaining environmental  
sustainability. Seventh, respecting the socio-cultural values and local wisdom (Andriani et al, 2015:5).  
C. Religious Values of Pancasila  
Religious values is one of the values contained in the ideology of the Indonesian nation i.e. pancasila. Pancasila  
has values that have become the cornerstone of life for the people of indonesia. The fifth of value contained in  
the grain of sila in the pancasila. One of the values of pancasila is a religious value. Religious value or the value  
of the Godhead (spiritual) is the Supreme and absolute value. This value is predicated on trust and confidence  
man. The value of The Almighty Godhead imply the existence of recognition and confidence of the nation  
against the existence of God as the created of the universe. This valuestating the Indonesian nation is a nation  
of religious not nationatheist.  
Pancasila as State ideology is crystallization of cultural values and religion of the Indonesia nation. The nation  
of Indonesia, have cultural roots and religion that grew from long ago in the life of the community. Pancasila  
accommodatingthroughout social life activities, nation and State.  
Allport claimed that the value it is trust that made human preferences in its actions. Select or choose human  
activity based on the value which he held. So the value is a belief or trust that is the basis for a person or a  
group of people to choose his actions or assess a meaningful or not meaningful for life.  
Religious Values in terms of fundamental truth has the most robust compared with other values. These values  
are sourced from the highest truth comes from God and scope value is very spacious and arrange all aspects  
of human life. The value is based on the type of religion that is embraced by the people, and the truth of this  
absolute value for adherents of each religion. So if the value of the religious foundation of a basic act, would  
have a meaningful action is formed based on the principles of the Godhead (Muhfathurrohman.wordpress.co).  
D. Social Practice  
Social practice theory is a theory advanced by Pierre Bourdieu, a French sociologist. Social practice is a  
product of the relationship between habitus as a product of history and also a field is a product of history.  
Bourdieu asserts generative formula outlining the social practices : (habits x capital) x field = practice (Bourdieu:  
1984.101).  
Habitus is the value that grasp into the thoughts, feelings and aesthetic person, so the affect and determine the  
value of a person’s tastes. Habitus is the values that support through the “social space” and can reflect one’s  
position in the socio-economic landscape, though not absolutely (Lubis, 2014:113).  
Capital is a concentration of power, a specific force that operates in field. Every field of demanding individual  
to have capitals specifically to be able to live well and survive in it. Capital in view of Bourdieu not only in the  
form of financial capital or capital economies, but also capital divided into capital-immaterial capital such as  
social capital, cultural capital and symbolic capital. This capital is used to determine the position within a field.  
Capital must always be produced and reproduced again. (Demartoto et al., 2014:30-31).  
The practice is an embodiment of habitus and capital in their vessels, namely the field. Social practice is the  
result of relation of habits as a product of history and in the realm of betting has the forces of people who have  
a lot of capital, as well as people who don’t have capital in this capital is a concentration of power in which the  
strength of the specific operations within the realm. (Sunuwati, 2015:22).The field is a competitive market type  
place different kinds of capital (economic, cultural, social and symbolic) are used and disseminated (Ritzer,  
2012:907).  
E. Methods  
The methods used in this research was the qualitative method and approach of Phenomenology. Kuswarno  
(2013:35) describes phenomenology aims to find out the world from the perspective of the people who experience  
it directly or with regard to the natural characteristic of the human experience, and meaning that affixed to it.  
It is in this research through purposive sampling researchers will find the informant to be a source of research

reseach i.e. determining the groups of participants who become informants in accordance with the selected

F. Result and Discuss  
The study in this paper was conducted on the villagers Senggigi Batulayar subdistrict of West Lombok Regency  
of West Nusa Tenggara Province. This study looked at social practices carried out by the villagers senggigi the  
day which show behavior and actions that reflect religious values of society. Religious value as a value that is  
contained in the first sila of Pancasila shows a value of trust against God Almighty, or can be called also with  
religious values.  
Religious values to the community of the senggigi village is an absolute value that must be followed. From  
religious values this is formed of moral values, ethics and behaviour of society which became the measure of  
right and wrong. The villagers of senggigi as a predominantly Islamic society, it is very fast to hold religious  
values. The behavior and actions of society based on laws of resting on religious values.  
Religious values also became the basis for the formation of the concept of halal tourism. Halal tourism as a new  
tourism trend that aims to enhance the spirit of religiousity by way of entertaining. Halal tourism is formed  
essentially to meet the needs of visiting muslim tourists, with emphasis on religious values of islam as development  
guidelines for the sake of creating comfort and safety in travelling to muslim travelers without leaving religious  
rituals.  
The village of senggigi as a village which has a good tourism potential, one of them a natural potential i.e.  
Senggigi beach is a tourist destination that has been planned for local Government to become a halal tourism  
destinations. This is supported by potentials, which is seen from the natural potential, the potential of the  
infrastructure and the potential social community environment very supportive.  
The social life of the community of the village of senggigi were formed from the values and norms of religions  
held firm. Habits, attitudes and behaviour of society based on religious principles. In the theory of social  
practices, habits, attitudes, knowledge, character, values and norms of the society referred to be viewed as a  
habitus. In this case a few community activities reflecting the habitus can grow capitals that can be used to  
create a social practice in the development of halal tourism-based religious values of Pancasila.  
Community social events such as likes society held a pengajian (the study of the Sciences of islam), tahlilan,  
hiziban, and deliberation is one of a community habitus can be meaning as a way to knowledge broaden and  
strengthen community solidarity, through silaturrohmi. The Pengajianalso means knowledge to form a muslim  
character to have principles and a strong identity so that the community can form the social environment with  
a strong religious character. Such things shows habitus village community is based on the value in religious  
precepts are listed in the first pancasila as a strategy that can be developed into halal tourism attraction power.  
The community’s decision to take a job in the tourism field is also shaped by the habitus that is owned by the  
community. The community is attempting to decide on taking a job that they think is good and lawful according  
to the view of the Islamic religion. The villagers of Senggigi is certainly taking a chance to work in the tourism  
sectors, such as hotels, waiters, driver guide, merchants of souvenirs, and more. This is done in the community  
to be able to continue to survive in the field of Senggigi tourism.  
To continue to survive in the field of tourism, of course the villagers of senggigi, in need of capital. This capital  
can be used to increase the community’s opinion of the economy, in order to meet the needs of primary and  
secondary. In view of the capital, Bourdieu not only in the form of economic capital, but consists also of social  
capital, cultural capital and symbolic capital.  
Social capital is capital that is a resource that can be seen with the emergence of the institutionalize network  
and durable. Social capital consists of the network, reciprocity, trust (mutual trust), values and norms. In the  
villagers of senggigi a relationship that is a form of reciprocity of society can be seen in the activities of the  
begawe. In this activity the community help each other help in preparing for the begawe event. This is certainly  
well supported by mutual trust in the community. The power of trust in this community can foster good cooperation  
networks in the fields of business and others so as to increase the income of the economy of the community.
