However, in the current situation, people continue to preserve the pecotan tradition, even though some people feel forced to do it. This is interesting for researchers to study and examine more deeply the status of the Pecotan Tradition using the 'urf analysis approach on walimatul 'urs in Kotaanyar District, Probolinggo Regency, East Java Province. The results of this research indicate that the status of the Pecotan Tradition using the 'urf analysis approach in walimatul 'urs has fulfilled the requirements to become a tradition ('urf) and is in accordance with the law.
