The nuances of Ramadan are increasingly attached, warm and full of His Grace, a month full of rewards signifies that every good thing we do will bear blessings and rewards from Allah SWT. The Islamic Civilization History Masters Study Program is one of those that takes advantage of this month’s blessing moment, through scientific studies. With the theme “Tradition of Dzuriah Prophet Muhammad SAW’s Lineage Recording, this seminar was held at the Cinema Auditorium of UIN Bandung Postgraduate Building.
This activity began with a series of opening events hosted by the Master of Ceremony, and ended with a presentation from the Postgraduate Director Prof.Dr.H. Supiana, M.Ag CSEE at the same time opened this seminar activity. In his presentation he explained that the support was so warm with the implementation of the activity at this time, inviting speakers from outside the campus to prove that gaining knowledge can be through collaboration and comparative studies, along with the presenters who will be present here are practitioners of their respective expertise. The Postgraduate Director of UIN Bandung apart from inaugurating / or opening this seminar activity also serves as the Keynote Speaker, in his material he conveys that the meaning of lineage, in this case the lineage of the Messenger of Allah SAW, needs to be understood correctly and thoroughly, with this seminar it is hoped that the mistakes that often occur in society can be straightened out in delivery of speakers. And seminars were held.
Sofyan Setio, S.Hum., M.A was present as the first speaker, in the form of collaboration on behalf of the Sufian Institute with Postgraduate UIN Bandung, he supported this activity by presenting material related to “Thariqah Alawiyah Activities in the Manhaj of Nasab Studies in the Book of Salaf Hadramau Yemen”. As one of the activists of Tariqah Awaliyah and Middle East Studies, she delivered her material well and conservatively. Tariqah Awaliyah according to him is one proof of the spread of Islam in Indonesia. The fact that he presented is a documentation of areas in Indonesia such as the islands of Java, Sumatra and Sulawesi which are already part of this Tariqah. he said apart from the organizational side, based on Islam is proof that the existence of this lineage record has a goal towards conveying knowledge.
The understanding of the urgency of lineage in the science of science is also a concern of Tariqah Awaliyah. The fact is that this understanding is part of early childhood education, apart from learning towards hafidz Quran. Reasoning about the Prophet’s lineage and even the lineage of each child. This education is felt to be important to cultivate the understanding that the knowledge chain is a strong source of foundation for the Mursyid teacher category. This was also emphasized by Prof.Dr.H.Ajid Thohir, M.A as the next speaker. he interpreted the sanad of knowledge as a teacher’s lineage. Spiritual knowledge cannot be acquired self-taught nowadays like science, more precisely related to reason and mind which must be given great attention.
The reason for the delivery is the correlation between tariqah and tassawuf. He said that the murshid competent teacher lineage will convey good knowledge with good delivery, the implications for students will apply it well, therefore this is about morality. The estuary of the Sufis is Ihsan which begins with the formation of morality. therefore these two things can not be separated from each other. History proves the existence of this lineage writing has a big impact on the spread of Islam, according to the presentation of the next speaker, namely Dr. H. Asep Ahmad Hidayat, M.Ag who delivered from a historical perspective. he emphasized that this recording had become a tradition since the 15th century when the Otoman dynasty was victorious. History proves that the spread of Islam became more structured with the existence of the science chain/teacher’s lineage itself. The meeting point of the evidence that science has had a major influence on the spread of Islam can be proven in Islamic countries, apart from Southeast Asia and South Asia which have large Muslim populations. China, which is currently dominated by Confucians and atheists, was once part of the expansion of Islam through the descendants of the Prophet Muhammad. At the end of the presentation of the material, he said that this registration had to be carried out in an orderly and very strict manner.
The recording of this lineage has become more diverse in terms of the use of the method. According to Abuya K.H Ahmad Hasan as the last presenter and also as Kasepuhan PP Benda Kerep Cirebon and Representative from Nasab Azmath Khan said that this recording method was also applied to the lineage of Wali Songo, who is a wide spreader of Islamic teachings. in Java, he said that almost 75% of the clerics in Indonesia are descended from or have a lineage to Wali Songo. as proof of the success of the trustees in spreading Islamic teachings and passed them down from generation to generation to the land of Java, Muslims make up the majority with the largest population. group photo.
