The RELATIONSHIP OF AKSARA JAWA AS LOCAL FOLKLORE WITH MODERATE AND PROGRESSIVE ISLAMIC EDUCATION

Abstract

Aksara Jawa or what we are familiar with as hanacaraka is one of the many priceless Javanese folklores, but in line with the flow of globalization, its existence is starting to be forgotten. Even though there have been many studies on Aksara Jawa, if we look at it from the perspective of Islamic philosophy, we still rarely find it. The focus of this research is to investigate the Islamic values contained in this indigenous culture. The purpose of this research is to find a relationship between Aksara Jawa and Islamic education. This study uses a qualitative approach by utilizing ethnographic methods that depart from the existence of the Aksara Jawa that grows in the community. The process of data accumulation was carried out by library research and ethnographic interviews. The results of this study indicate that the Aksara Jawa can be used as a lesson that humans as messengers of God must put their trust or surrender to Him so that in our lives we will achieve success both in this world and in the hereafter.

Cultural Reproduction of the Jawi Book in the Recitation Tradition in Palembang

“…The Jawi Book, in particular, has played a pivotal role in forging and strengthening relationships among scholars and the Muslim community across the archipelago. Nabilah & Nikmah (2022) emphasize that the scholarly discourse in the Jawi Book has been instrumental in solidifying Islamic ties within the region. This phenomenon coincides with the established use of the Malay language for bilateral relations between kingdoms, which, prior to the advent of Islam, utilized the Pallawa script, underscoring the Malay language's role as a unifying element among the archipelago's inhabitants.…”
