Islamic Civilization in a Collection of Archives
The history of Islamic civilization stretches long from the Arabian Peninsula to the Archipelago. Millions of archives scattered everywhere record his journey.
In general, cooperation between countries with Muslim populations is established in the economic, scientific and cultural fields. However, it has never been established in the field of archives. In fact, the history of Islam that is preserved in archival records is also part of world civilization. It is for this reason that the heads of archives from countries with Muslim populations gathered for the first time.
"This meeting is an initial step to explore and explore the establishment of a national archive collaboration forum in all Muslim or Muslim-populated countries," said Head of the National Archives of the Republic of Indonesia (ANRI) Imam Gunarto in a preliminary meeting "National Archive Cooperation Forum of Populated Countries Muslim majority” at ANRI, South Jakarta on Wednesday 12 July 2023.
Apart from Indonesia as the host, the meeting was attended by representatives of nine other countries. They are: Saudi Arabia, Brunei Darussalam, Iraq, Kuwait, Malaysia, Morocco, Qatar, Palestine and Jordan. This forum is expected to preserve the collective memory of the long-standing history of Islam. And of course to increase the role of national archives in Muslim countries at the international level.
The pleasures of Cianjur
Indonesian Archives Ambassador Rieke Diah Pitaloka who is also a member of the DPR emphasized the same thing. Apart from serving as historical evidence, the historical archives of Islamic civilization are also a collective memory of the struggles of every nation which is dominated by Muslims. According to him, the thoughts of the leaders of Islamic countries are in line with the thoughts of the leaders at the Asian-African Conference (KAA). Work together for peace, justice and the welfare of mankind.
One of the important historical archives is related to the formation of the Organization of the Islamic Conference in 1969. It later changed its name to the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC). The formation of the OIC was spearheaded by King Hasan II from Morocco and King Faisal from Saudi Arabia.
“The archives reveal the fact that this organization is not only fighting to protect the holy places of Muslims, not only striving to increase cooperation among member countries. OIC also fights for international peace and security. In line with the spirit of the 1955 Asian Conference, the OIC is committed to helping the struggle for an independent and sovereign Palestinian state," Rieke added.
In Indonesia alone, historical archives on Islam are quite rich. It is scattered everywhere. Not only in archival institutions, but kept by clerics, Islamic boarding schools, and Islamic-based communities.
According to Oman Fathurrahman, professor of philology at the Syarif Hidayatullah Islamic University, many archives in Indonesia are linked to the Arab world through tarekat and selawat manuscripts. This is because the network of Islamic civilization in the past was connected in such a way. Is it through trade, diplomacy, knowledge interaction, or religious interaction. This connected network makes Islam not only grow and develop in the Arabian Peninsula. Islamic civilization was born later in various areas that were originally called peripheral or periphery scholars.
However, Oman does not agree with the term peripheral as a suburb which has a low meaning. Peripherals show more places far from the center of Islamic development such as Mecca and Medina. But from the point of view of Islamic civilization, it is not actually in the sense that the quality of adab is low.
“Never see that Islamic archives and manuscripts written in non-Arabic languages are inferior. Absolutely not. That there is a translation, yes. Arabs also used to translate Greek archives and scholarship at Baitul Hikmah during the Abbasid Caliphate, for example," he said.
The spice route shows the route from Mecca and Medina to the archipelago through various regions. Starting from Aden in Yemen, Oman, to Sri Lanka. At least until the 19th century, these stopover points became the route for connecting Indonesian pilgrims to the holy land. Thus, Islamic civilization is actually very, very rich, not only in Arabia.
"We have Arab, African, Asian, Persian, Turkish, Ottoman and even European Islamic civilizations. If in the context of archives and manuscripts, we will find Islamic archives in countries in this region, including Southeast Asia (Nusantara). This is what is less known by the public about the complexity of the international relations of the Muslim world that connects it with us in Southeast Asia," explained Oman.
Besides Arab Islam influencing the culture of the Archipelago, continued Oman, it turns out that Nusantara Islam has also contributed to the Arab world. Lots of thoughts from Nusantara scholars whose books were printed in the Arab world. Some of them were Sheikh Abdurrauf Singkil (1615-1693) from Aceh, Sheikh Abdus Shamad al-Palimbani (1704-1789) from Palembang, and Sheikh Muhammad Arsyad al-Banjari (1710–1812) from Banjar. Their works were printed at Mustafa Al-Babi al-Halabi, the oldest printing house in Cairo, Egypt.
“You can see that there is a reciprocal relationship, a mutually beneficial connection. This relationship stimulated the birth of Islamic archives and manuscripts. So Nusantara scholars interacted with the Indian, Persian, Arab Muslim communities, met in Mecca and Medina, then gave birth to archives," he explained.
ALAMSYAH ARAFI Agustus 06, 2023 Admin Bandung IndonesiaExploring Shia History
Shia is said to have been present in the archipelago for a long time. Traces of history and its influence can be used to reduce Sunni-Shia conflicts.
The community's ignorance of history and Shia teachings is considered to have played a role in igniting the embers of the Sunni-Shia conflict in Indonesia until now. Because of this, this nation is easily unstable in responding to the differences between the two major streams of Islam. This was stated by Husain Heriyanto, a teaching staff at the University of Indonesia, in the "International Conference on Historical and Cultural Presence of Shias in Southeast Asia" at Gadjah Mada University, Yogyakarta.
Ignorance does not only affect ordinary people, but also religious leaders. When culturalist Agus Sunyoto was attending an Islamic boarding school, his teacher advised him to stay away from Shia teachings. “According to him, Shia is anti-mawlid, anti-wiridan, and anti-pilgrimage. Even though they are Wahhabism,” said Agus, author of the book Atlas Wali Songo. "The existence and influence of Shia has taken root in several parts of the archipelago since 1400 years ago."
In Central Maluku, this influence is manifested in the form of the Ma'atenu dance. This dance was introduced by the Hatuhaha people. "They are the oldest Muslim community in Maluku which was formed since the eighth century. Their leader has a lineage from Ali bin Abi Talib. Therefore, this dance is intended as a form of praise for the Prophet Muhammad, Ali, and his descendants."
The As Pelor gang
Ripping the body with a sharp object characterizes this dance. Exactly with the dance in the Shia tradition to commemorate the event of Karbala. Until now this dance is still sustainable. "Shia teachings have integrated with the ancestral culture of Moluccas Islam," said Yance Zadrak Rumahuru, teacher at the Ambon State Protestant Christian College (STAKPN). "Unfortunately, this contribution is often overlooked."
Shia influence is also found in Sumatra. Mohammad Ali Rabbani, attache to the Iranian Embassy, stated that traces of heritage from Indians in Sumatra are strong with Shiite influence, for example, tabuk and tombs dating from the 17th century.
“This is because the Indians who came to Sumatra were influenced by the Persians. Those people adhere to the Shiite sect," Rabbani said. On the other hand, the Persians and Indians also adopted the traditions of the Sumatran people. “This interaction benefits Muslims. One nation benefits from another nation.
Shia Begins from Veranda of Makkah
In Aceh the situation is somewhat different. The people there were first familiar with Persian traditions. "Before Shia became an official sect in Persia, the Acehnese had come into contact with Persian culture," said Kamaruzzaman Bustaman Ahmad, a lecturer at the State Islamic Institute (IAIN) Ar-Raniry, Aceh.
Because of this, it is difficult to dissect the traditions of Shia, Persia and Aceh. “All of this has been blended in the dayah (Islamic boarding school). The results are poured outside the dayah," said Kamaruzzaman. Even so, Shia-Sunni bloody conflict never occurred in Aceh in the 17th century. This was because extreme groups within Sunni or Shia dominated Aceh at that time. According to Azyumardi Azra, a professor at the Syarif Hidayatullah State Islamic University in Jakarta, the long history of Shia history in the archipelago can be used to reduce Sunni-Shia conflict. “It is clear that Sunni-Shia can no longer be seen in black and white. The two influence each other.”*

AYAT AYAT ALQUR'AN
وَمَآ اَرْسَلْنَا مِنْ قَبْلِكَ مِنْ رَّسُوْلٍ اِلَّا نُوْحِيْٓ اِلَيْهِ اَنَّهٗ لَآ اِلٰهَ اِلَّآ اَنَا۠ فَاعْبُدُوْنِ
I. "DAN Kami tidak menguus seorang rasul pun sebelum kamu ,melainkan kami
Wahyukan kepadanya ; bahwasanya tidak ada TUHAN melainkan aku,
maka sembahlah Aku oleh mu sekalian (QS.AL -Anbiyaa ;25)
اِنَّمَا الْمُؤْمِنُوْنَ الَّذِيْنَ اِذَا ذُكِرَ اللّٰهُ وَجِلَتْ قُلُوْبُهُمْ وَاِذَا تُلِيَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ اٰيٰتُهٗ زَادَتْهُمْ اِيْمَانًا وَّعَلٰى رَبِّهِمْ يَتَوَكَّلُوْنَۙ
II. " Sesungguhnya orang - orang yang beriman itu adalah mereka yang apa bila
di sebut Allah gemetar lah hati mereka, dan apabila di bacakan kepada mereka
ayat - ayat NYA , bertambahlah iman mereka (karenannya) dan kepada Tuhanlah mereka berttawakal.' ( Q.S. Al-Anfal ;2)
فَاَمَّا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا بِاللّٰهِ وَاعْتَصَمُوْا بِهٖ فَسَيُدْخِلُهُمْ فِيْ رَحْمَةٍ مِّنْهُ وَفَضْلٍۙ وَّيَهْدِيْهِمْ اِلَيْهِ صِرَاطًا مُّسْتَقِيْمًاۗ
III. Adapun orang-orang yang beriman kepada Allah dan berpegang teguh kepada (agama)-Nya, maka Allah akan memasukkan mereka ke dalam rahmat dan karunia dari-Nya (surga), dan menunjukkan mereka jalan yang lurus kepada-Nya.( Q.S. An - Nisaa 175)
اِنَّا لَنَنْصُرُ رُسُلَنَا وَالَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا فِى الْحَيٰوةِ الدُّنْيَا وَيَوْمَ يَقُوْمُ الْاَشْهَادُۙ
IV. Sesungguhnya Kami akan menolong rasul-rasul Kami dan orang-orang yang beriman dalam kehidupan dunia dan pada hari tampilnya para saksi (hari Kiamat),(Q.S. Al - Ghafir :51)
اَلَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْا وَلَمْ يَلْبِسُوْٓا اِيْمَانَهُمْ بِظُلْمٍ اُولٰۤىِٕكَ لَهُمُ الْاَمْنُ وَهُمْ مُّهْتَدُوْنَ ࣖ
V. Orang-orang yang beriman dan tidak mencampuradukkan iman mereka dengan syirik, mereka itulah orang-orang yang mendapat rasa aman dan mereka mendapat petunjuk. Q.S. (Al - An- aam 82)
وَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَنْ يَّتَّخِذُ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِ اَنْدَادًا يُّحِبُّوْنَهُمْ كَحُبِّ اللّٰهِ ۗ وَالَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوْٓا اَشَدُّ حُبًّا لِّلّٰهِ ۙوَلَوْ يَرَى الَّذِيْنَ ظَلَمُوْٓا اِذْ يَرَوْنَ الْعَذَابَۙ اَنَّ الْقُوَّةَ لِلّٰهِ جَمِيْعًا ۙوَّاَنَّ اللّٰهَ شَدِيْدُ الْعَذَابِ
VI. Dan di antara manusia ada orang yang menyembah tuhan selain Allah sebagai tandingan, yang mereka cintai seperti mencintai Allah. Adapun orang-orang yang beriman sangat besar cintanya kepada Allah. Sekiranya orang-orang yang berbuat zalim itu melihat, ketika mereka melihat azab (pada hari Kiamat), bahwa kekuatan itu semuanya milik Allah dan bahwa Allah sangat berat azab-Nya (niscaya mereka menyesal).(Al- baqarah;162)
قُلْ اِنَّ صَلَاتِيْ وَنُسُكِيْ وَمَحْيَايَ وَمَمَاتِيْ لِلّٰهِ رَبِّ الْعٰلَمِيْنَۙ
