The Journal of Philology and Historical Review (JPHR) is a fully refereed and vigorously edited journal of history and philology. JPHR accepts the original manuscript written by an individual or in a group and never published in any form. The manuscript comes from research results, article review, conceptual study, or book review. All manuscripts should explicitly address on philology or ancient manuscript, history, general theoretical and historiographical questions relevant to historians of many specialties. Philology is the study of ancient manuscript and open to a wide variety of interdisciplinary approaches, from the study of linguistic evolution to literary interpretation, from textual criticism to the investigation of texts and ethnotexts, from etymological reconstructions to the cognitive analyses of archaeological facies. Historiography means the writing of history based on the critical examination of sources, the selection of particular details from the authentic materials in those sources, and the synthesis of those details into a narrative that stands the test of critical examination. Historiography studies cover chronologically various themes, such as local history, social history, cultural history, economic history, political history, military history, intellectual history, environmental history, and other historical studies. Journal of Philology and Historical Review (JPHR) balances its broad chronological coverage with a wide geographical spread of scholarly articles featuring contributions from social, political, cultural and economic historians.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the development of Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) in Central Sumatra and the organization’s political stance in responding to the Revolutionary Government of the Republic of Indonesia (PRRI) conflict in the late 1950s. It also seeks to explain the dynamics of NU’s relationship with regional political elites and the central government, as well as the impact of the PRRI conflict on the development of NU in West Sumatra. This research employs the historical method, consisting of four main stages: heuristics, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography. The findings indicate that Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) began to develop organizationally in Central Sumatra in the early 1950s through the efforts of several prominent figures, some of whom originated from the Persatuan Tarbiyah Islamiyah (Perti) milieu. Although NU secured only limited electoral support in the 1955 General Election, the organization remained actively involved in regional political affairs. During the initial phase of the PRRI conflict, NU supported the Dewan Banteng; however, it subsequently aligned itself with the central government's policy when the conflict evolved into an armed rebellion against Jakarta. Following the end of the PRRI conflict, administrative restructuring and organizational reorganization contributed to the strengthening of NU at the regional level. During the Guided Democracy period, NU experienced significant growth through the expansion of its organizational network, an increase in membership, and greater participation in political institutions. These developments demonstrate the close relationship between the evolution of religious organizations and broader political transformations at both the regional and national levels.

Abstract

The history of Islam in Southeast Asia and Africa cannot be disentangled from the dynamics of migration, colonialism, and spiritual resistance to subjugation. Shaykh Yusuf al-Makassari (1626–1699 CE) a nobleman, Islamic scholar, Sufi master, and anti-colonial resistance fighter from Makassar, South Sulawesi represents one of the most consequential transnational figures in the global history of Islam. This study aims to reconstruct the historical trajectory of Shaykh Yusuf al-Makassari, from his political captivity under the Dutch East India Company (VOC) to his enduring role as a foundational figure of Islam in South Africa. Employing a library research methodology integrated with the historical research method, comprising heuristics, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography. This study systematically analyzes primary and secondary sources pertaining to Shaykh Yusuf's life, exile, and legacy. The findings reveal that despite being forcibly exiled to Ceylon (1684) and subsequently to the Cape of Good Hope (1694), Shaykh Yusuf succeeded in establishing the first consolidated Muslim community in South Africa through the clandestine transmission of Khalwatiyya Sufi teachings, thereby earning recognition as the "Father of Islam in South Africa" — a legacy later celebrated by Nelson Mandela as the foundational inspiration of South Africa's anti-apartheid and anti-colonial struggle.
