Abstract

This study investigates the historiographical portrayal of the Prophet Muhammad’s (SAW) struggle during the Meccan and Medinan phases, as documented in History of Islamic Civilization by Prof. Dr. J. Suyuthi Pulungan, MA. The research aims to trace and critically analyze the historical narrative presented in the text, particularly concerning the early Islamic struggle and the development of Islamic civilization. A qualitative, non-interactive library research design was employed, utilizing historical methods. Data analysis involved content and comparative analysis to interpret textual representations and construct a historiographical account based on the selected work. Findings indicate that in the Meccan phase, the book omits several pivotal events in the Prophet’s early da'wah efforts, including the reception of revelation, phases of secret and public preaching, the Isra' Mi'raj, and the concealment in the Cave of Tsur. In the Medinan phase, while the establishment of the Nabawi Mosque is mentioned as a central development in Islamic civilization, the economic system during this period is notably absent. The study reveals both the strengths and limitations in the historiographical construction of Islamic history within this text. It emphasizes the need for a more comprehensive inclusion of key events and socio-political aspects in future historiographical works to provide a fuller understanding of the Prophet Muhammad’s (SAW) legacy. Further research is recommended to compare additional classical and contemporary historiographies for a more holistic analysis.

Abstract

The Jawi script, a traditional Arabic-based script historically used in Southeast Asia, is a unique characteristic of written communication in Indonesian Islamic boarding schools and constitutes a valuable cultural heritage that requires preservation. This study investigates the management of Jawi script instruction—covering planning, organization, implementation, and evaluation—at the Nurul Islam Seribandung Islamic Boarding School. Employing a qualitative descriptive design with a phenomenological approach, data were collected through observations, interviews, and documentation. The analysis followed three stages: data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal several challenges in the current management of Jawi script learning. In terms of planning, the script is not taught as a standalone subject but is embedded within general Islamic lessons using Javanese script, resulting in a lack of structured curriculum. The organizational aspect shows some progress, with task delegation among staff members in place. However, the implementation stage lacks a formal lesson plan or standardized teaching materials specifically dedicated to Jawi script. The evaluation process is present but only conducted at the end of the semester, limiting continuous assessment and feedback opportunities. This study underscores the need for a more structured and systematic approach to Jawi script instruction to ensure its sustainability and effective transmission to future generations. Strengthening instructional planning and integrating Jawi as a distinct subject could enhance both learning outcomes and cultural preservation efforts.

Abstract

Wayang Palembang is a traditional art of performing arts with artificial media of people made of leather. Wayang Palembang contains universal cultural values because it tells human life. This study describes the existence of Wayang Palembang through manuscript traces (ancient manuscripts). The research found that the Wayang Palembang was originally introduced by the ruling elites of the ruling Majapahit kingdom in Palembang. During the time of Palembang Sultanate this art modified by absorbing elements of Malay culture. Subsequently, he continued to be preserved during colonial and post independence. Wayang Palembang has unique characteristics that distinguish it from Javanese puppet, which is from the aspect of the introduction language by the Mastermind, the display of its own, or the performance devices, including the duration of the timing. This shows the harmonious acculturation and adaptation between Javanese culture and Palembang Malay culture. The heyday of the Palembang puppet period ended in 1980, with the last Dalang death

Abstract

This study aims to examine the history of the formation of ethnicity in a remote area of South Sumatra, specifically in Tanjung Pasir Village, Pemulutan District, Ogan Ilir Regency. The background of this research is the limited number of academic studies addressing ethnic dynamics and the role of migrant communities in rural areas. The main issues discussed include the background of the emergence of the Arab ethnic group, patterns of social interaction with the local community, and the contributions of the Arab community to social, cultural, and religious life in Tanjung Pasir Village. This research employs a qualitative method with historical and sociological approaches. Data were collected through interviews, observation, and the study of relevant historical sources, and were analyzed using a descriptive-analytical approach. The findings indicate that the presence of the Arab ethnic group in Tanjung Pasir Village was closely linked to the role of religious figures who contributed to the spread of Islam. The process of assimilation, which occurred through social interaction and intermarriage with the local population, has resulted in the formation of a unique and harmonious community. The Arab-descendant community has made significant contributions to strengthening Islamic values, religious education, and the transmission of traditions and cultural practices that enrich local identity. These findings highlight the importance of interethnic interaction in rural areas in shaping cultural diversity and strengthening social cohesion within the community.

Abstract

This article discusses the dynamics of the spice trade that occurred on the east coast of Sumatra, to be precise in the areas of Singapore and Palembang in the 19th century. The spice trade on the east coast of Sumatra in the 19th century was inseparable from the involvement of many nations in the spice commodity produced in the archipelago. In addition, this article also aims to analyze the impact of the spice trade on the formation of inter-ethnic networks. This study uses historical research methods, starting from heuristics, source criticism, interpretation and writing of history. Analysis of the results of research using the Islamic Maritime Civilization approach by K.N Chaudhuri and the Trade Network approach by J.C Van Leur, these two theories argue that maritime civilization is inseparable from the influence of agrarian civilization which has an impact on the formation of a network. The results of this study are; first, in the 19th century, Singapore and Palembang were areas that still existed as a place for the spice trade, and these two areas were not only a place for trade interactions, but also a spice producer. Second, the spice trade in this century has also formed networks between nations and ethnicities, such as local networks involving ethnic groups in Nusantara and international networks involving various ethnic groups and ethnic groups in the world.

Abstract

This article explores the identity of the Malay and Nusantara Muslim societies by analyzing the transformative Islamic thought of Yusuf Al-Qaradawi. Al-Qaradawi’s approach to Islamic reform emphasizes the need to contextualize Islamic teachings, offering a flexible and dynamic interpretation of the faith that aligns with the realities of modern societies. In the context of Malay and Nusantara Islam, this article delved into the interaction between traditional Islamic values, indigenous cultures, and the challenges posed by globalization and modernity. The analysis employs a qualitative research methodology, using a comprehensive literature review of primary sources, such as Al-Qaradawi’s key works on Islamic reform and his commentaries on contemporary Islamic issues. Secondary sources, including scholarly articles and books on Malay and Nusantara Islam, are also analyzed to provide a broader context for his influence in the region. A thematic analysis of key concepts, such as ijtihad (independent reasoning), reform, and the intersection of Islamic teachings with modern social and political realities, forms the backbone of the study. This methodology allows for a critical evaluation of how Al-Qaradawi’s thought contributes to the shaping of Islamic identity in the Malay Archipelago, offering both theoretical and practical insights into the relevance of his ideas for contemporary Muslim societies.

Abstract

This study examines the acculturation of Islamic values within Javanese birth ritual traditions, particularly the ceremonies of four-month pregnancy (telon-telon), seven-month pregnancy (piton-piton), placenta burial (mendhem ari-ari), brokohan, sepasaran, and selapasan. These traditions represent Javanese cultural heritage that has undergone a process of Islamization through the integration of Islamic teachings and religious values into their implementation. The study aims to describe the forms of birth rituals and to explain the Islamic values embedded within them. This research employed a qualitative approach using field research methods. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation involving the community of Banuayu Village, Buay Madang District, East OKU Regency. The data were analyzed through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that Javanese birth rituals have acculturated with Islamic teachings through the practices of collective prayer, tahlilan, recitation of Qur’anic verses, salawat, almsgiving, and expressions of gratitude to Allah SWT. These traditions function not only as cultural heritage but also as a medium for strengthening religious values, social solidarity, and the Islamic identity of the Javanese community.

Abstract

The State of Sultan Mahmud Badaruddin II's descendant (zuriat) after the Sultanate of Palembang was controlled by Dutch Colonials in the XVIII AD century, Palembang Sultanate was the center of Islamic studies in Indonesian Archipelago and was the continuity of the development of Islam in Aceh which declined in the XVII AD. In XVIII AD ulema and intellectuals received great encouragement and attention from the Sultanate which causes the emergence of ulema writers whose works still can be read and taught in the society til now. The development of Islamic intellectuals at that time is inseparable from the role of the rulers (sultan) who ruled. The Sultan highly encouraged the ulema and intellectuals in conducting Islamic studies, especially during the reign of Sultan Mahmud Badaruddin II both nationally and internationally. === Keadaan zuriat (keturunan) Sultan Mahmud Badaruddin II setelah Kesultanan Palembang dikuasai Kolonial Belanda pada Pada abad XVIII M, Kesultanan Palembang merupakan pusat kajian Islam di Nusantara dan merupakan kontinuitas dari perkembangan Islam di Aceh yang megalami kemunduran pada abad XVII M. Pada abad XVIII M tersebut para ulama dan cendekiawan mendapat dorongan serta perhatian yang besar dari pihak Kesultanan, sehingga muncul ulama-ulama penulis yang karya-karyanya masih tetap dapat dibaca dan diajarkan di masyarakat hingga sekarang. Berkembangnya bidang intelektual Islam pada masa itu tak lepas dari peran para penguasa (sultan) yang memerintah. Para Sultan sangat mendorong para ulama dan cendekiawan dalam melakukan kajian keislaman, terutama pada masa Sultan Mahmud Badaruddin II baik nasional maupun internasional.

Abstract

Aksara Ulu is an ancient written cultural heritage that developed in the inland region of South Sumatra, including Lubuk Linggau City. This study aims to examine the existence, transformation, and preservation efforts of Aksara Ulu in Lubuk Linggau within a modern context. The method used is descriptive qualitative, utilizing primary data in the form of archives, ancient manuscripts, field observations, and interviews, as well as secondary data from books, journals, and other supporting documents. The results show that the existence of Aksara Ulu in Lubuk Linggau is evidenced by the discovery of ancient manuscripts made of bamboo (gelumpay), buffalo horn, and other traditional media. In the past, this script was used for customary purposes, medicine, law, family genealogy, and social communication. Historically, Aksara Ulu in Lubuk Linggau is closely related to the writing tradition of the Musi Ulu region and shows similarities to the Rejang Script (KaGaNga) in Bengkulu. However, the use of this script has declined due to the influence of colonialism, the introduction of Jawi script, the dominance of the Latin alphabet, and weak intergenerational transmission. Preservation efforts have been carried out through digitalization, literacy training, development of learning media, integration into arts and culture, and policies of the Lubuk Linggau City Government through local content curricula in elementary and junior high schools. This study concludes that Aksara Ulu is not only valuable as a historical legacy but also has strategic potential as a local cultural identity relevant to be developed in the modern era.
