Abstract

By translating many books of fiqh and Sufism into Javanese, KH Sholeh Darat has actually left a trail of brilliant Islamic thought in Semarang. This can be traced through his works which are works of translation, one of which is the magnum opus is the Book of Syarh Al Hikam. Therefore, the teachings of Islam are easily understood and accepted by the Semarang Islamic community. This is as conveyed in the message of preaching at the house of the Regent of Demak who is the uncle of R.A. Kartini. KH Sholeh Darat translated the Koran into Javanese using Arabic Pegon. Therefore, the effort to translate various books into Javanese is none other than the process of Islamization in Semarang, which is a trail of Islamic teaching that is very accommodating to Javanese culture in the Semarang area. Therefore, this manuscript needs to be studied philologically and thematically, especially the values of the propaganda of KH Sholeh Darat which provide a wind of harmony in religion. Through intertextual studies this study intends to find the character relationship of Syarah Al Hikam KH Soleh Darat. Through the learning of the Al Hikam book, traces of Islamic thought and the method of da'wah that combines Islamic culture and Javanese culture, accommodating, moderate, between the Shari'a and the tarekat is the harmonization of Islam can be accepted in the multicultural society in Semarang and Java in the 19th century.

Summary

Introduction

That the success of Islamic da'wah (Islamization/preach) on Java didn’t escaped the role of the ulamas, who’s the noble works were able to transform Islamic values brilliantly. That is why the traces of Islamic intellectual exactly appear in the form of classical religious scripts which contain various Islamic teachings, such as tauhid, tafsir, ahlak, fiqh, and sufism teaching, or called pesantren literature [8] It seemed that in Indonesia this literacy tradition declined after the triumph of the thinking of Imam Nawawi Al-Bantani from Banten whose works were widely used in the India region and Middle Eastern countries [9]. Islamic boarding schools as the basis of Islamic education, in addition to having a strong oral tradition, have intellectual traditions revealed in various written works in the form of pesantren literary works, such as book literature or religious literature. The third purpose is to reveal and analyze the contents of the text of the Book of Syarah Al Hikam, so that the meaning and function of the text of the book is known in society
