Abstract

The character of Semar in Javanese puppetry is a unique figure who bridges Javanese philosophy and Islamic teachings. This study explores the synthesis between the two traditions through an analysis of Semar's characteristics and teachings. This study aims to (1) analyze how the character of Semar represents the synthesis between Javanese cultural philosophy and Islamic principles, (2) examine its implications for understanding cultural acculturation and (3) its relevance in the context of contemporary Indonesia. This study applied the library research method. Data sources included literature on puppetry, Javanese philosophy, and Islamic teachings. The analysis was conducted by using a hermeneutic, comparative, and semiotic approach. The study result reveal that (1) a significant correlation between the characteristics and teachings of Semar and the basic principles of Islam. Concepts such as "manunggaling kawula gusti" and "memayu hayuning bawana" are in harmony with the teachings of tauhid and khalifah fil ardh in Islam. Simplicity, honesty, and social criticism that characterize Semar are also in line with Islamic values. The synthesis reflected in the character of Semar shows the flexibility of Islam in adapting to local culture without losing the essence of its teachings. (2) This has important implications for understanding Javanese-Islamic cultural acculturation and offers an inclusive and tolerant model of religiosity in the context of contemporary Indonesia. (3) This study also reveals the relevance of this synthesis in facing the challenges of modernity and globalization, as well as its potential in building a national identity that is rooted in local wisdom but open to universal values.

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to investigate the role of Islamic educational institutions before the emergence of madrasahs in the intellectual and social development of Muslims. The main issue addressed is the contribution of institutions such as al-dars, ribaths, mosques, kuttabs, and scholars' houses in shaping Islamic intellectuality during that time. This study employs a qualitative approach through historical and social analysis. The findings of the research indicate that these institutions were crucial in shaping Islamic intellectuality. They not only served as places to study religious teachings but also helped disseminate knowledge, share ideas, and build the social identity of Muslims. These institutions supported the exchange of ideas, research, and the teaching of knowledge, which were essential for the education of Muslim generations. In conclusion, this research emphasizes the importance of classical Islamic educational institutions in shaping Islamic civilization. These institutions fostered a holistic educational approach that integrated knowledge, religion, and spirituality. They reflect various forms of Islamic education, allowing for comprehensive and integrated learning and continuous knowledge enhancement. The legacy of Islamic educational institutions before madrasahs historically continues to influence how we understand and approach Islamic education today.
