Abstract

The researcher found that some shopkeepers refused to give alms to beggars who came to their shops. However, within a short time, the shop was visited again by a different beggar, and the shopkeepers did not refuse the beggars unless they were holding the almsgiving money. In practice, shopkeepers do not give alms indiscriminately to every beggar or member of the public who asks for help; rather, there are certain considerations in determining who is deemed worthy of receiving the alms. This phenomenon is interesting because the practice of almsgiving carried out by shopkeepers is influenced not only by the shopkeepers' perspectives and experiences, but also by the social and cultural environment surrounding the market. This study aims to describe the reasons why shopkeepers choose recipients for giving cash alms on Jalan Pasar Baru, Pasar Raya, Padang City. This study employed qualitative methods, collecting data through in-depth interviews and observation. Purposive sampling was used to select 10 informants. Informants were divided into two groups: observers and perpetrators. Seven shopkeepers were perpetrators, while three observers were local residents, such as parking attendants. The theory used in this study is James Coleman's rational choice theory. The results of this study indicate that shopkeepers have several reasons for choosing recipients of cash alms on Jalan Pasar Baru, Pasar Raya, Padang City. These reasons are divided into several, based on the shopkeepers' perspectives, based on experience, the physical condition of beggars, and also based on the culture around the market. These reasons include: 1) recipients of alms are often observed using rude language; 2) recipients are often observed being contacted by vendors; 3) recipients of alms pray for vendors; 4) receiving alms before a transaction occurs in the shop; 5) the recipients' physical condition; and 6) an excessive number of beggars. Based on the market's culture, these reasons include: the existence of social customs in the market environment. Keywords: Reasons, Vendors, Beggars, Alms
