Abstract

The dominance of Western epistemology in the development of modern science has led to significant material progress, yet it has simultaneously triggered a crisis of values, ethics, and spirituality. Within the context of Nusantara society, particularly the Malay tradition, there exists a local knowledge system rooted in the concept of akal budi and Islamic teachings, representing a unity of rationality, ethics, and spirituality. This article aims to reconstruct the epistemology of Malay akal budi as a foundation for developing the philosophy of science within the context of Nusantara civilization. This research employs a qualitative approach with a literature study method and a philosophical analysis of literature relevant to the philosophy of science, Islamic philosophy, and Malay cultural texts. The results show that the epistemology of Malay akal budi is integrative, combining reason (akal), character/discretion (budi), revelation (wahyu), and custom (adat) as sources of knowledge. This epistemological model holds strategic relevance in building a Nusantara philosophy of science oriented toward the common good (maslahah), civility (adab), and social harmony. This article contributes to strengthening alternative epistemologies that are contextual and rooted in the local wisdom of Nusantara

Abstract

This study analyzes the transborder intellectual network established by Sheikh Ahmad Khatib al-Minangkabawi (1860–1916) within the framework of interaction between the Malacca Strait region and the center of Islamic scholarship in Mecca. The Strait of Malacca is viewed as a dynamic civilizational zone that facilitated the movement of religious leaders, students, and Islamic discourse between the Malay world and the center of religious authority in the Haramain. Within this network, Sheikh Ahmad Khatib played a vital role as a figure from the Nusantara who held high scholarly legitimacy in Mecca while simultaneously serving as a bridge for the transmission of knowledge to the Malay world. Utilizing a qualitative method through literature review and a historical-intellectual approach, this research gathered data from ancient manuscripts, historical documents, the works of Sheikh Ahmad Khatib, and other relevant literature. The data analysis process was carried out through a series of stages, from heuristics to historiographical writing, to map the established intellectual relationships. The research findings indicate that this network was formed through the halaqah system, the granting of ijazah (scholarly licenses), and the distribution of written works involving interactions between teachers and students from various parts of the Nusantara. The impact of this network not only strengthened the relationship between the Malacca Strait and Mecca but also contributed significantly to the Islamic scholarly tradition in the coastal Malay region. This study affirms that such transnational connections constitute a vital foundation in the trajectory of intellectual history and the development of Islam in the Malay world
