BAN SWEEP AT NIGHT

Since the days of our ancestors, until now, the myths about the prohibition of doing something that can have bad consequences have indeed flourished in Indonesia. This region is rich in ethnicity and culture, its people easily believe in superstitious things, such as the prohibition of sweeping at night.

According to trust, the consequences caused by sweeping at night, is that the person is difficult to get sustenance, or throw away the sustenance that has been obtained. There are also those who say that sweeping at night means inviting bad luck.


In fact, another opinion states, sweeping at night will disturb spirits that are not visible, because it hits the body of spirits with the broom handle. Do not stop there, there are also people who associate superstition to ban sweeping at night with religion. In fact, none of the hadith mentioned the issue.

Sweep at night is prohibited because it is believed to be able to throw away the sustenance that we have accumulated during the day. Interestingly, many people practice this myth even though there is no logical explanation for the correlation between night sweeping and loss of sustenance. However, if it is interpreted logically, sweeping activities should be carried out in the morning or afternoon because at that time the lighting is more maximal and the results will also be maximized.
