Weton calculation in marriage is a Javanese cultural tradition used to determine the wedding day so that the event can take place smoothly without disturbances or disasters. One of the Javanese marriage traditions in Merauke Regency is determining the wedding date by using weton calculations in accordance with ancestral customs. Weton is still considered a crucial element in life, especially in determining auspicious days for important events such as marriage. This study employs a qualitative research method. The research data were obtained through observations, interviews, and documentation from the community regarding weton calculations in marriage practices in Merauke District, Merauke Regency. The results of the study indicate that weton calculations for determining wedding days, as a tradition of the Javanese community in Merauke Regency, are conducted to assess the compatibility between prospective husbands and wives. Weton calculations are used as a reference for determining a favorable wedding date, with the hope that the marriage will be harmonious, protected from divorce and disasters, and blessed with descendants in the future. In the perspective of ‘urf, the weton tradition is viewed as a customary practice of the Javanese community in determining wedding days based on certain calculations believed to bring harmony, balance, and family welfare. From the perspective of ‘urf, the weton tradition may be practiced as long as it does not contradict Islamic law and does not contain elements of shirk (polytheism).
