Ikhtilāf al-Ṭabī‘ah al-‘Ilmīyah al-Islāmīyah bayna Manāṭiq al-Sāḥil al-Shimālī wa al-Manāṭiq al-Dākhilīyah li Jāwah al-Wusṭá fi al-Qarn 15-17 al-Mīlādī
The propagators of Islam in the north coast of Central Java in the 15th - the 17th centuries have successfully demonstrated legalistic character of the Islamic knowledge. However, the influence of Shaykh Siti Jenar’s teachings and the Hinduism that deeply rooted among the Javanese as well as the slowly spread of Islamic knowledge in the rural Central Java have contributed to the inequalities of Islamic understanding. Therefore, the Islamic knowledge in this area becomes more syncretistic and heterodox or it is known as kejawen. With the increase of Muslims in the archipelago who study Islam to the center of Islam in Mecca, Madina, and Egypt, the universal Islam is more understood and disseminated in the translation works of the scholars. This further reduces the local character of Java contained in kejawen teachings and in contrary strengthens the orthodox Islam.DOI: 10.15408/sdi.v19i2.364

Dirāsat fī al-Islām al-Mahallī: Adwā’ ‘alā Inṣihār al-Islām fī al-Thaqāfah al-Jāwīyah
This article attempts to explore a study of Islam in Java in the frame of the above conception -the dialogue tradition. The process of acculturation between Islam and Javanese culture, which developed in the dialogue tradition, is the central point of this article. Religious discourses embodied in Javanese texts, such as suluk and babad, written in the period of the establishment of Islam until the 19th century, are considered as the cultural representation of the fault line -despite the harmonious reconciliation- between Islam and Javanese tradition. In this context, changes in social and political affairs in Javanese courts, especially crucial changes in the 19th century following the colonialism, implanted the emergence of religious discourses embedded in the Javanese texts observed in this article.DOI: 10.15408/sdi.v7i2.71
