Abstract

This study highlights the contributions of Javanese scholars towards the enrichment of the intellectual heritage in the Malay Archipelago. Such a study in Arabic is rare despite the long historical relations between the region and the Arab/Muslim world. The study concludes that with the beginning of the twentieth century a number of Javanese scholars studied from the highly-ranked scholars in the Holy Ka‘bah, including Sheikh DÉ’Ëd bin ‘Abd Allah al-PatÉnÊ, the leader of the Patani community in Makkah. They sought authentic Islamic learning and wrote scientific works in Arabic and Jawi. They served as a bridge between the Middle East and Far East throughout the Islamic era. After having secured Islamic and Arabic learning, they returned to their country and established Islamic educational institutions, private and public, as a means to spread knowledge of Islam. Kajian ini menyerlahkan sumbangan para ulama Jawa terhadap pengayaan warisan intelek di rantau Kepulauan Melayu. Kajian sedemikian dalam bahasa Arab adalah jarang walaupun rantau ini dan dunia Arab / Islam mempunyai hubungan sejarah yang berpanjangan. Kajian ini menyimpulkan bahawa pada permulaan abad kedua puluh, beberapa para ulama Jawa menimba ilmu dari para-para ulama yang berilmu tinggi di Ka'bah, termasuk Sheikh DÉ’Ëd bin ‘Abd Allah al-PatÉnÊ, seorang pemimpin masyarakat Patani di Makkah. Mereka menuntut pengajaran Islam yang sahih dan menulis karya saintifik dalam bahasa Arab dan Jawi. Mereka menjadi penyambung diantara dunia Timur Tengah dan Timur Jauh sepanjang era Islam. Selepas mereka mempelajari ilmu Islam dan Bahasa Arab, mereka kembali ke negara mereka dan menubuhkan institusi pendidikan Islam, awam dan swasta, dengan tujuan untuk menyebarkan ilmu Islam
