Tarikh : Journal of Islamic History and Civilization (E-ISSN 3090-8310) is a blind peer-reviewed journal Islamic History and civilization published by Student Rihlah Indonesia.

Abstract

This study is motivated by the importance of interpreting Qur’anic verses through historical and contextual lenses to provide relevant meanings for the socio-political dynamics of Muslim communities across time. This article aims to explore the connection between the Roman victory mentioned in Q.S. Al-Rūm [30]: 2–5 and Indonesia’s independence struggle by analyzing Tafsīr Ibn Kathīr and Safīnat Kallā Saya‘lamūn. The study employs a qualitative method with a thematic tafsir approach and contextual-historical analysis. The findings reveal that the verses do not merely document the Persian-Roman conflict, but convey universal messages of hope, resistance, and the triumph of the oppressed. In the Indonesian context, the verses served as ideological and spiritual inspiration for Muslim freedom fighters resisting colonialism. The novelty of this research lies in its intertextual approach, linking Qur’anic texts, early Islamic history, and Indonesia’s national struggle—an area scarcely explored in classical or modern tafsir literature. The implications suggest the potential to strengthen Islamic narratives in shaping national historical consciousness and inform character education grounded in Qur’anic values.

Abstract

This study examines the dynamics of power and official directives through a philological approach, focusing on letter issued by the Mataram Sultanate to the southern Cirebon region in 1687. By employing a philological perspective, the research investigates not only the textual content but also the material, linguistic, and contextual aspects of the manuscripts. The findings demonstrate that Mataram letter functioned not solely as administrative instruments but also as tools of internal diplomacy and social control, enforcing laws, issuing commands, and signaling warnings to local rulers. Philological examination uncovers layered meanings within the texts, highlighting how language, manuscript form, and historical context collectively shaped the messages sent by the Sultanate to southern Cirebon at the close of the seventeenth century. Ultimately, this study provides a multidimensional understanding of official Mataram documents: as instruments of administration, mechanisms of political legitimacy, and vehicles of social influence. It offers novel insights for Javanese history, colonial administrative studies, and Nusantara textual philology.

Abstract

The existence of the Ottoman Empire (1299–1924) as a political power and center of Islamic civilization represents a crucial phenomenon in world history. This study aims to analyze the political system, governance, state structure, and the development of intellectual, scientific, religious, and cultural life during the Ottoman era, covering the empire’s establishment, golden age, and eventual decline. The research adopts a qualitative historical method through literature review of secondary sources (books, journals, manuscripts) and translated primary sources (archives, works of scholars). The findings reveal: (1) A political system based on absolute monarchy and a hybrid legal framework (Hanafi sharia-kanun) supported imperial expansion and multiethnic stability; (2) A structured education system (madrasah) and state patronage fostered advancements in applied sciences (astronomy, medicine, architecture) and cultural expression in arts and language; (3) Islamic spirituality was mobilized through the caliphate title and ghaza narrative; (4) The millet system accommodated diversity, though bureaucratic stagnation and modernizing pressures led to decline. The novelty of this study lies in its holistic approach that integrates political, intellectual, and cultural aspects, revealing the interconnection between power and civilizational dynamics. The implications offer a comprehensive perspective for Islamic historical studies, emphasizing that Ottoman glory was sustained through the integration of knowledge, religion, and governance rooted in Islamic principles.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze H.O.S. Tjokroaminoto's political thoughts on the caliphate in the 1920s, in the context of global caliphate issues after the abolition of the Ottoman Caliphate in 1924. As an intellectual with a background as a santri-priyayi (Islamic scholar-noble), a skilled orator, and leader of Sarekat Islam, Tjokroaminoto viewed the caliphate as the “head” of the ummah—an important moral-political authority for maintaining the dignity of Islam under colonial domination. This view was shaped by his biographical experiences, his ideological understanding of Islam, and his involvement in the dynamics of global Islamic activism. For Tjokroaminoto, Islam and politics were inseparable; Islam encompassed not only spiritual and religious aspects, but also social and political issues. This study places the caliphate crisis in its historical context, examines the response of Muslims in the Dutch East Indies, and highlights Tjokroaminoto's role and thoughts on the issue. Tjokroaminoto's ideas on the caliphate had a major influence in shaping the boundaries and direction of political Islam in Indonesia in the early 20th century, as well as having a significant impact on Muslims at that time.

Abstract

This article reveals the role of Islamic civilization in early Spain, which is often overlooked in the narrative of Modern European history, and to show its contribution to the intellectual revival of Europe. Meanwhile, the goal is to analyze the development of Muslims in Spain from their initial arrival until the formation of the emirate government system, especially during the emirate period in Cordoba (755-912 AD). The method used in this article is the library research method with a historical approach that includes heuristics, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography. The results of the study show that the arrival of Muslims was not solely to control the region, but to overthrow King Roderick of the Visigoth Kingdom, and spread the teachings of Islam in harmony. Not to forget the progress of science, the progress of magnificent architectural buildings, which could rival the Abbasid Caliphate and became the starting point of the European revival. The novelty of this article lies in the emphasis that the transformation of Andalusia into a center of knowledge occurred during the emirate phase, not only in the early period of the caliphate. The implications for policy on the integration of Spanish Muslim scholarship into the curriculum of history education and global civilization studies, in order to provide a foundation of knowledge for future generations to apply in the modern era.

Abstract

The objective of this study is to analyze the history of Islamization in the Greater Karawang region from Sheikh Quro to the Islamic Sultanate. This study employs a qualitative research design using library research. Data credibility is tested through a five-year research period from 2021 to 2026, data triangulation, and member checking. Greater Karawang has been part of Darul Islam since the early days of the Sultanates in Cirebon and Banten. This means it was not merely a region of da’wah but also a land where Islamic Sharia was once enforced through the authority of Sultans bearing the titles Panatagama or Qaimuddin—titles signifying those who uphold religious laws. What is particularly noteworthy is that the call to jihad fi sabilillah in Cirebon and Banten—as the rulers of Karawang Raya—was closely tied to the Ottoman Caliphate, exemplified by the Ki Amuk cannon of Banten and the Macan Ali war banner, both of which bore Ottoman symbols: the Dzulfiqar sword. Karawang Raya was a land of Islamic warriors. The Rengasdengklok Incident is only a small part of the history of Greater Karawang. Subsequently, the Islamization of Greater Karawang was led by Sundanese nobles of the Aria Wangsagoparana lineage and scholars who were alumni of al-Haramain, known as the Ashab al-Jawiyyah. Among the figures involved were the Regent of Karawang, Dalem Solawat Rd. H. Muhammad Siraj Suriawinata; the Head of Karawang, Syekh Baing Rd. H. Muhammad Yusuf; and Mama Sempur Plered, Syaikh Tubagus Ahmad Bakri, along with his students in Karawang, Bekasi, Subang, and Purwakarta.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the history of the Zero Point of the Will for Self-Governance (Zelfbestuur) 1916 Sarekat Islam: A Reconstruction of Future History. This study employs a qualitative approach through literature review and reflective analysis. The methodological steps employed include Normative Analysis, Historical Analysis, and Reflective Analysis. The primary source, the book Zero Point of the Will for Self-Governance (Zelfbestuur) 1916, serves as the conceptual foundation and main reference. Based on the findings, ‘the will for self-governance (zelfbestuur)’ is a mantra.  In the socio-political context of 100 (one hundred) years ago, this was a historic event for indigenous Muslims in the East Indies, after the power and sovereignty of many sultanates across the Nusantara region gradually weakened and eventually succumbed to Western colonial rule, with the last being the Sultanate of Aceh (1902). The struggle to achieve the ideal of self-governance for the indigenous Muslim people, pioneered by the Central Sarekat Islam, was in fact a metamorphosis and transformation of the substance of the sultanate or caliphate (Ottoman Turkey) governance model—one that was more egalitarian and non-feudal, relying on genealogy for succession. We must seek a new starting point agreed upon by the indigenous Muslim people of Indonesia today, so that the history of Zelbestuur from 100 years ago becomes not only a collective memory but also the driving force behind a shared movement to realize it in this millennium. From the perspective of historical scholarship, the NATICO I event certainly deserves attention through various  national history seminars, enriched with documents and data. Indeed, from a political science perspective, the history  of governance will also undergo reconstruction.

Abstract

This Al-Islam Congress was a political reaction by Muslims in the Dutch East Indies to the abolition of the global Islamic political institution known as the Caliphate, as well as the ousting of Caliph Abdul Majid II by Mustafa Kemal Pasha—with British assistance—on March 3, 1924. The purpose of this study is to analyze the history of the establishment of the Central Committee of the Caliphate in the Dutch East Indies (A Newspaper Analysis Study, 1924–1926). Employing a qualitative approach and historical research methods (heuristics, criticism, interpretation, and historiography), as well as an interdisciplinary approach, this study addresses a gap in the literature by combining historical, political, and social perspectives. The findings reveal that in mid-1924, several figures from the Arab community in Batavia and Surabaya received an invitation to the Caliphate Congress in Cairo sent by the scholars of Al-Azhar. Tjokroaminoto responded by organizing a meeting held on Saturday and Sunday, October 4–5, 1924, at the Madrasah Tarbiyatul Aitam building in Genteng, Surabaya. The invitation to the meeting was disseminated to all scholars and community leaders through the newspapers of the Islamic movement. Disagreements marked the proceedings of the meeting, until Wondo Soedirjo eventually suspended the session briefly. Once the atmosphere had calmed, the participants agreed to first establish a committee as a platform for their struggle. The meeting, held at Madrasah Tarbiyatul Aitam in Surabaya, resulted in the formation of the first organization in the East Indies dedicated to reestablishing the Caliphate. Attendees representing various Islamic organizations and several regional associations agreed to name this merged organization the Centraal Comite Chilaafat Hindia Timoer. The newspaper Soeara Perdamaian published the khittah, or guiding principles, of this movement.
