nan bana badiri sandrirnyo.
It is stated in the proverb above that consensus is
barajo ka nan bana, nan bana badiri sandirinyo. If we examine it,

it can be seen that above consensus there is still one more level,

namely barajo kan nan bana (going to the right) which means
seeking the truth. This means that every member of society must

perform ijtihad to find a more correct one, even though at the level
of consensus a mutual understanding has been reached between

different opinions.
Next comes the question of what is truth. In the

above proverb it is explained that: nan bana badiri sandirinyo,

which is true and independent, means that truth is omnipotent, that
is al Haq. It can be concluded that Minang customs are based on

the concept of monotheism.
C. Concept of Science and Skills

1. Science
Minang custom which is based on the takambang nature

as a teacher, where nature is a source of inspiration from

science and knowledge, so that nature must be studied and
studied, the educational material is related to nature, namely

king of consensus, consensus is king of what is right, what is right stands by
itself.
