Abstract: Residents' involvement is essential for destinations' post-disaster revival. Religion, as an ingrained value and ritual system, significantly affects residents' involvement in disaster tourism. Based on a case of Aceh, Indonesia, this study adopted a practice-based approach and investigated how religion conditions the practice of residents' involvement in disaster tourism. We conducted six focus-group interviews and practice theory–guided thematic analysis. We first identified the defining elements of residents' involvement practice and subsequent configuration. Then, we presented practice-arrangement bundles where the core practice was embedded. Finally, we discussed how religion provides an institutional context for intra-practice and cross-practice evolution. Our work contributes to a collective and sociological perspective on how the social phenomenon of residents' involvement in disaster tourism develops under religion.
