The Cumbok affair (Indonesian: Peristiwa Cumbok), also known as the Cumbok War (Indonesian: Perang Cumbok), was a series of battles that took place in the Pidie Regency of Aceh in the Dutch East Indies between 2 December 1945 and 16 January 1946.
Conflict broke out between ulama (teungku) who supported the Proclamation of Indonesian Independence and had united in the Persatuan Ulama Seluruh Aceh [id] (PUSA), and the local ulèëbalang [id] aristocracy (teuku) who continued to support Dutch colonial rule, causing a revolution in the social fabric of the Acehnese people at the time.
