Hi. One Islam.
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious
, the Most Merciful. Peace be upon you,
and Allah's mercy and blessings. Praise
be to Allah, Lord of the worlds.
Abundant, good, and blessed praise, as
our Lord loves and is pleased with. O
Allah, send prayers, peace, and
blessings upon our master Muhammad, and
upon his family and companions, and
grant them peace. Good morning,
brothers and sisters, viewers, and
listeners of Rasil wherever you are.
How are you? I am Firman Muslim Tahir,
accompanying you all this morning in
this new program. Our first program is
to discuss and dissect a book. A book
written by one of the great scholars in
Indonesia, the book of Hadratus Syekh
Hasyim Asy'ari. Praise be to Allah, our
guests, our ustaz, are already here
with us; the first is Ustaz Fawas
Fauzan. Peace be upon you, Ustaz.
Peace be upon you, and Allah's mercy
and blessings.
And the second is Kiai Muhammad
Saifurrahman Abdur Rauf. Peace be upon
you, Kiai.
Peace be upon you, and Allah's mercy
and blessings. Now, I will pass the
time and floor to Ustaz Fawas, who has
brought quite a thick book, Ustaz.
Very well. In the name of Allah, the
Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Peace
be upon you all, and Allah's mercy and
blessings.
Peace be upon you. Praise be to Allah,
Lord of the worlds, and peace and
blessings be upon the master of the
messengers, the leader of the pious,
the leader of the radiant and bright,
the intercessor for the sinners, our
master and patron, Muhammad,
and upon his pure family and honorable
companions, may Allah Ta'ala be pleased
with the Ansar and the Muhajirin who
followed them in goodness until the Day
of Judgment. Glory to You, we have no
knowledge except what You have taught
us; You are the All-Knowing, the Wise.
And there is no power nor strength
except by Allah, the Most High, the
Almighty. My Lord, expand for me my
chest, and ease for me my task, and
untie the knot from my tongue, that
they may understand my speech. Our Lord
, grant us from Yourself mercy and
prepare for us from our affair right
guidance. Our Lord, increase us in
knowledge. Our Lord, grant us wisdom
and join us with the righteous, and
grant us a reputation of honor among
the later generations, and praise be to
Allah, Lord of the worlds. Brothers and
sisters, Muslim men and women, students
of religious schools, and members of
Nahdlatul Ulama. Praise be to Allah,
this morning, at the invitation of the
owner and director of Madrasah Umat,
Ustaz Firman Muslim Tahir. I am here
before the viewers and listeners of
Radio and TV Silaturahim, or Rasil TV,
and also Radio Rasil AM 720. Together
with our guest, K.H. Muhammad
Saifurrahman Abdur Rauf, caretaker of
the Al-Muhajirin Islamic Boarding
School, North Jakarta. Praise be to
Allah, this morning, with the
permission of Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala
, we can begin the inaugural study,
dissecting and reviewing the scholarly
works of Hadratus Syekh K.H. Muhammad
Hasyim bin Kiai Asy'ari, known as Mbah
Hasyim, the founder of Nahdlatul Ulama.
Now, this is a compilation collected by
one of his grandsons, K.H. Muhammad
Ishamuddin Hadziq, better known as Gus
Isham. The grandson from the daughter
of Hadratus Syekh K.H. Muhammad Hasyim
Asy'ari collected many essays or
booklets, small and large, pages of
Hadratus Syekh's teachings and his
writings. They were collected into a
book he named Irsyadus Sari. Yes, the
name of this book is Irsyadus Sari fi
Musonnafat Syekh Hasyim Asy'ari. This
is a collection of books authored by
Hadratus Syekh, collected by his
grandson, edited by him, and translated
into the Pegon script, or what we call
Javanese-Arabic, translated into
Javanese-Arabic. becoming a collection
called Irsyadus Sari. Indeed, this book
can be considered rare, and perhaps
many traditional Islamic boarding
schools that follow the manhaj of
Hadratus Syekh K.H. Muhammad Hasyim
Asy'ari and are part of the Nahdlatul
Ulama organization are not even aware
of it.
Oh, I see. They don't just not read it;
they don't even know that Hadratus
Syekh authored works like this. Even
though I haven't read his various books
in detail from beginning to end, this
illustrates the vastness of Hadratus
Syekh's thinking and his mastery,
particularly in the field of hadith,
for which he is renowned. Hadratus
Syekh K.H. Muhammad Hasyim Asy'ari was
among the remaining scholars who
received an academic sanad, having read
the Sahih al-Bukhari from start to
finish under one of the Nusantara
scholars teaching in the holy land of
Mecca. He was from the hometown of
Indonesia's former president, Mr. SBY,
a region in Pacitan named K.H., or
better known as Sheikh Mahfud bin
Abdullah at-Turmusi from Pacet—
apologies, from Pacitan, East Java. So,
Hadratus Syekh took his hadith sanad
from him because he was someone who
possessed a chain of scholarly
transmission for reading hadith books,
especially Sahih al-Bukhari, that was
very close to the author himself. Now,
this Hadratus Syekh K.H. Muhammad
Hasyim Asy'ari spent approximately 6 to
7 years in Mecca. He studied there,
deepening his knowledge in ulumul
hadith, then ulumul fiqh, and various
other sharia sciences. Naturally, in
these books, he poured out his thoughts
, especially those uniquely focused on
unity. Especially since Radio Rasil or
TV Rasil, and of course Ustaz Firman
who leads the madrasah umat, really
want to ground the Quranic concepts
within society. If we look at many of
Hadratus Syekh Muhammad Hasyim
Asy'ari's writings, he invites people
—or perhaps in our terms, guides
public opinion—to return to the Quran
and Sunnah. So, he is not just known as
a person associated with tarekat,
tahlilan, tawasulan, and pilgrimages.
No. No. He was an expert in the field
of hadith. It's just that somehow,
among the Nahdliyin to this day, he is
more popularly known as someone who
simply possesses karamah. And tarekat,
yes. Even though, if we look at his
writings, they demonstrate his breadth
of knowledge in sharia fields beyond
tafsir, ulumul hadith, and ulumul fiqh
along with its ushul. So, actually, if
I may express my gratitude to Ustaz
Firman and, of course, the mouthpiece,
which is
Rasil, through this madrasah umat and
Rasil. Perhaps this is the first time
an Islamic radio station has taken it
upon itself to read, dissect, and study
the books of Hadratus Syekh; a radio
whose icon is a cleric who invites
people to a unified Islam. But these
thoughts of Hadratus Syekh really need
to be published. Thank you so much. If
we may pray for the madrasah umat and
Ustaz Firman in particular, may the
reward...
Yes, of course, this is a conduit, a
medium, in the sense that it’s like
this: when the Nahdliyin community
becomes aware and willing to re-examine
Hadratus Syekh's thoughts directly from
his books, because if we rely on
secondhand sources, how else would we
truly know someone's thoughts?
From the books.
From the books that summarize his
written lectures, or perhaps books like
this one. Subhanallah, hopefully the
brothers and sisters, the students of
Nahdliyin, will be moved to return to
classical Islamic boarding schools,
especially the NU boarding schools.
Come on, let’s unpack them, dissect
them, and re-study the books written by
Hadratus Syekh so we can understand his
thoughts directly.
Are his works not currently mandatory
reading and study materials in
NU boarding schools?
NU boarding schools,
that is the homework.
Hopefully, through Radio Rasil, TV
Rasil, and Madrasah Umat. Well, all the
people must be embraced, right? We need
to find a way for NU boarding schools
to make these books mandatory. For
example, he has a book called Adabul
Alim Wal Muta'allim. Now, one of our
teachers, Sayyidul Habib Umar bin
Muhammad bin Salim bin Hafiz, was
willing to study it directly via live
streaming, which was watched by NU
leaders, administrators, members, and
students at the PBNU office. He has,
Habib Umar bin Hafiz has a monthly
schedule to study it; he is the pioneer
among the Habaib. Just Habib Umar bin
Hafiz—well, there might be others in
Betawi—but here at Rasil and PBNU,
through a live stream from Darul
Mustafa, Habib bin Hafiz studies and
dissects Hadratus Syekh’s book,
Adabul Alim Wal Muta'allim. Yes, it is
even more profound than Ta'limul
Muta'allim, which is currently the
mandatory textbook in NU boarding
schools. So, in these NU boarding
schools, Brother Iman, Ustadz Firman,
there is a book called*Ta'limul
Muta'allim*and*Thariqut Ta'allum*, this
book is mandatory reading in NU
boarding schools because it discusses
the etiquette of a student toward their
teacher, a teacher toward their student
; essentially, the etiquette
surrounding knowledge and the pursuit
of knowledge. Now, Hadratus Syekh has a
fairly thick book called Adabul Alim
Wal Muta'allim. His book is about 109
pages long. 109 pages is not a small
amount, is it? In the end, Habib Umar
bin Hafiz was entrusted to teach this
at PBNU. Now, the second book is what
we will study this morning. Hopefully,
this can be a routine.
Amen.
And hopefully, brothers and sisters,
students, once we decide—since
Hadratus Syekh has written
approximately 12 or 13 titles—we will
eventually select one book. We will
provide the title of the book so that
you can look for it. If you can't find
it, contact Ustadz Firman and just
order a photocopy or something.
Find it, that's how.
If you find it, it is indeed rare. We
actually received this from a Kiai, may
Allah reward him with the best, named
K.H. Muhyiddin Ishaq, the caretaker of
the Miftahul Ulum Islamic Boarding
School, a Betawi Kiai. And is he active
in Nahdlatul Ulama, or in what
organization? Nahdlatul Ulama. He
gifted this to me because I had tried
searching everywhere, even ordering it
from East Java, but it was out of print
; this is a new edition. Even this is
already full of, what do you call it?
Notes.
Notes on the meaning, 'makna gandul' as
the Javanese call it, or what we call
Arabic Pegon.
Yes, Arabic Pegon. So, interpreting it
in Javanese using Arabic script, or
Arabic-Malay as we call it. Hopefully,
all of this serves as inspiration and
motivation for our friends, especially
the muhibbin (devotees) of Hadratus
Syekh K.H. Muhammad Hasyim Asy'ari, and
also for the students active in Jamiah
Nahdlatul Ulama or those who follow the
NU school of thought to dig deeper. In
other words, to truly become Nahdliyin
in essence. To become a true NU member
in the real sense. Not just in name or
hitching a ride on the NU vehicle,
while having a mindset that isn't
Nahdliyin. Because when we read the
thoughts of Hadratus Syekh, subhanallah
, there are several books that provide
exactly that. Later we will read a bit
of his biography, which will be a
blessing for us all. Essentially, thank
you. May Allah reward Islam and the
Muslims, especially the Nahdliyin and
Nahdlatul Ulama, for Madrasah Umat and
Radio Silaturahim, and Rasil TV for
providing the time so that Hadratus
Syekh's book can be read here. Who
knows, maybe some friends who are
active in or follow the manhaj of K.H.
Ahmad Dahlan in Muhammadiyah might be
willing to send a book written by K.H.
Ahmad Dahlan. Who knows, we might be
able to dissect that on Rasil too,
right? So, these are major
organizations, NU and Muhammadiyah, and
indeed Hadratus Syekh Muhammad Hasyim
Asy'ari and K.H. Ahmad Dahlan were
fellow boarding students. These two
founders of these organizations were
friends in the Islamic boarding school,
friends in Mecca. And what made them
different was that Hadratus Syekh K.H.
Hasyim Asy'ari returned to his village
in the Jombang area, which was
underdeveloped at the time. His village
was still very rural, "Babat Alas" as
the Javanese say. While K.H. Ahmad
Dahlan went straight into the city in
Yogyakarta. That alone made their
thinking different. Naturally, the way
one conveys a module or a concept to
people in a rural area with an 'abangan
' mindset is different from someone who
enters the middle of an urban area.
That is just a little bit of the
picture. Thank you, Ustaz Firman.
May Allah grant blessings to us all. As
for the scientific chain (sanad) of
this book, Ustaz Fauzan, who is your
connection, Ustaz?
Oh, masyaallah.
Some people ask, if someone discusses
knowledge, the sanad must be clear,
right, Ustaz?
Very well. In terms of the sanad, the
chain of knowledge from me back to
Hadratus Syekh K.H. Hasyim Asy'ari, is,
of course, what shall I say? Not direct
. Because he passed away in 1947.
I wasn't even born in '74. He passed
away in '47. So, I obtained this chain,
this scholarly chain, or at least the
tabarukan diploma from Hadratus Syekh,
through two paths. The first is the
paternal path from my father. My father
was a student of K. H. Idris Kamali and
K. H. Syuri Badawi. Now, Idris Kamali
was a cleric from Cirebon, from the
Kempek area. He studied at Tebu Ireng.
He was then taken as a son-in-law by
Hadratus Syekh K. H. Hasyim Asy'ari.
And it just so happened that those who
continued the relay of teaching and
education were his sons-in-law,
Hadratus Syekh. As it happens, none of
his sons became popularly known for
mastering the scholarship possessed by
Hadratus Syekh. For example, there was
his son K. H. Wahid Hasyim, the father
of K. H. Abdurrahman Wahid, Gus Dur.
Then K. H. Yusuf Hasyim, K. H. Khalid
Hasyim. And then there was the late K.
H. Salahuddin Wahid; these sons of
Hadratus Syekh were not known for
continuing the relay of Sharia
knowledge mastered by Hadratus Syekh.
It was his sons-in-law who were more
famous. Yes.
Including Kiai. Idris Kamali from
Cirebon. Our father, Buya Ghazali
Musanif, studied under K. H. Idris
Kamali. Kiai Idris Kamali took from
Hadratus Syekh K. H. Hasyim Asy'ari.
Then there is also another path from
his student, one of his main students,
Kiai Syuri Badawi, whose students
include Ustaz Ahmad Sanusi, who also
studied under Kiai Syuri Badawi. Then
Kiai Syuri Badawi studied under
Hadratus Syekh K. H. Hasyim Asy'ari;
among the famous students of K. H.
Syuri Badawi was K. H. Ali Mustafa
Yaqub. He was famous in the field of
Hadith.
Yes. So that is the paternal path. I
took it from my father, Buya Ghazali,
who took it from Kiai Idris Kamali, who
took it from Hadratus Syekh K. H.
Hasyim Asy'ari. Meaning, I only
received the diploma. Yes. Then, from
my teacher's side, I studied under
Hadratus Syekh K. H. Mbah Ahmad Marzuqi
Zahid, one of the caretakers of the
Langitan Widang Tuban Islamic boarding
school. He, Kiai Ahmad Marzuqi Zahid,
obtained his scholarly chain and
studied specifically under K. H. Hasyim
Asy'ari. So this is the connecting link
here.
However, as for Hadratus Syekh K. H.
Hasyim Asy'ari, his scholarly lineage
is truly vast, with many teachers; God
willing, I would like to ask permission
to share a bit of his biography.
Yes, Ustaz.
Please do.
Go ahead, Ustaz. Go ahead.
Very well. Brothers and sisters,
students, I will read a little bit
about the biography of Hadratus Syekh
K. H. Muhammad Hasyim Asy'ari. His
well-known name is Hadratus Syekh K. H.
Hasyim Asy'ari. But his actual name was
Muhammad Hasyim. Asy'ari was his father
, Kiai Asy'ari, son of Kiai Abdul Wahid
, son of Kiai Abdul Halim. Well, Mbah
Abdul Halim is better known in the
history of the archipelago as Prince
Benowo.
So, Kiai Hasyim is a grandson or
great-grandson of Prince Benowo. Prince
Benowo was the son of Mbah Abdurrahman,
better known by his nickname Joko
Tingkir, or even more famously as
Sultan Hadi Wijaya. Mbah Abdurrahman
was the son of Mbah Abdullah, known as
Prabu Wijaya V. Son of Abdul Aziz, son
of Abdul Fattah, son of Maulana Ishaq,
also known as Sunan Bonang, who was the
father of Raden Ainul Yaqin, popularly
known as Sunan Giri. So, Mbah Hasyim is
indeed a descendant of Sunan Giri from
both his father's and mother's sides.
Gresik. Now, because of the Javanese
language, the pronunciation is a bit
distinct. Because if people say it in
Betawi, it's Gresik. But since this is
Javanese, it becomes Gresik.
Gresik.
Now, a descendant of Sunan Giri. Where
is Giri? In Gresik, yes. On a hill
called Bukit Giri. He was born in a
village called Gedang Village. Gedang
is a village where there were many
banana plantations. A village north of
the city of Jombang. Born on Tuesday,
the 24th of Dhu al-Qi'dah in the year
1387. Coinciding with February 14, 1871
. This is a bit of a, what do you call
it, a joke. So, if there are NU people
celebrating February 14, it's not
Valentine's.
Not at all.
It is Mbah Hasyim's birthday. For NU,
the 14 th—
If NU people hold, for instance, a
party or a thanksgiving event or
something, on February 14, they aren't
celebrating Valentine's; don't get it
wrong, they are celebrating the
birthday of
Mbah Hasyim.
Mbah Hasyim, subhanallah. He grew up
under the guidance of his father, Kiai
Asy'ari, studying the Quran and even
memorizing it from an early age. Pay
attention, we as NU members, Mbah
Hasyim mastered the Quran since he was
little. Now, almost everywhere in NU,
for some reason, there seems to be a
dichotomy. So, if you want to be what?
A Hafiz Quran, you don't master the
yellow books. If you master the yellow
books, you can't master the Quran.
The Quran.
In fact, in quotation marks, it's as if
now—
Tahfiz Quran is a characteristic of our
Salafi friends or something like that.
Whereas Hadratus Syekh mastered the
Quran from his early childhood. Because
the Quran is the door to all goodness;
everything starts from there. Hopefully
, we Nahdiyin members, and Muslims in
general, can follow the example of
Hadratus Syekh by mastering the Quran
from an early age, including its
recitation, tartil, and memorization.
Alright. Then he also memorized various
books, starting from the small ones
known as Safinatun Najah and so on.
Then, as he grew into his teens, he
continued his studies at pesantren.
Leaving his father's place, where to?
To the famous pesantren in East Java at
that time. The ones famous in East Java
back then. For example, the Sono
Pesantren and the Siwalan Pesantren,
both located in the Sidoarjo region of
East Java. Then he moved again to the
Langitan Widang Tuban Islamic boarding
school. Where I studied before.
Yes. So, Hadratus Syekh Hasyim Asy'ari
studied at the Langitan pesantren. Our
teacher, Romo or Mbah Ahmad Marzuki
Zaid, studied under Kiai Hasyim there.
So, Hadratus Syekh studied at Langitan.
And later, his student named Ahmad
Marzuki Zaid studied at Tebuireng under
Kiai Hasyim Asy'ari. Then he moved
again to further his knowledge. Further
his knowledge where? To a pesantren in
the Bangkalan area, led by a great
scholar, one of God's saints, known as
a man of miracles, K. H. Khalil
Bangkalan in Madura, yes. Then, in
around 1892, how old was he then? He
was about 20 years old, yes. He left
again for the holy city of Mecca to
perform Hajj and stayed there for about
6 to 7 years to study Islamic sciences.
So just his time in boarding schools
was 27 years, approximately 27 years
seeking knowledge. Subhanallah. He
studied there until 1899. Then he
returned. He acquired knowledge from
great scholars in Mecca, especially
scholars from the Nusantara.
Yes.
It was truly the golden age of
Nusantara scholars teaching at Masjidil
Haram. Nowadays, it cannot be
controlled by just one group. It wasn't
open like that before. Whoever had the
expertise was given a place to teach.
Who were they? Among them was Syekh
Nawawi Al-Jawi, who was...Syekh Nawawi
Al-Bantani.
Yes. From Banten, Serang, Banten. He
studied under him; Hadratus Syekh
studied various books with Syekh Nawawi
Al-Bantani. Then another teacher was
Syekh Khatib Al-Minangkabawi, a person
from Minang—we are both Minang people
, right? Of Minang descent, that is.
Minangkabau used to be known for its
scholars.
Now, it is just as it is. There has
started to be what you call...
Degradation, a decline.
A decline.
Lailahaillallah. Yes.
Back then, Syekh Khatib Al-Minangkabawi
was also a khatib at the Haram Mosque.
Then he studied with Syekh Syuaib bin
Abdurrahman, covering many books,
including studying with the Mufti of
Mecca, the Maliki Mufti in particular,
namely Assayid Abbas bin Abdul Aziz.
Al-Maliki Al-Hasani, the grandfather of
Prof. Dr. Abuya Sayid Muhammad bin
Alawi Al-Maliki. So it’s Muhammad bin
Alawi bin Abbas bin Abdul Aziz.
Hadratus Syekh K. H. Hasyim Asy'ari's
chain of knowledge connects to Sayid
Abbas Al-Maliki. Abbas bin Abdul Aziz.
There is Abbas bin Alawi,
the younger brother of Abuya Muhammad.
Now, this Abbas is his grandfather. So,
Sayid Abbas bin Alawi bin Abbas. Kiai
Hasyim Hadratus Syekh studied under
Sayid Abbas bin Abdul Aziz Al-Maliki
Al-Hasani. So his chain of knowledge is
also connected, Ustaz.
Subhanallah. Who doesn't know Sayid
Abbas? An expert in Hadith, of the
Maliki school. The Maliki school of
jurisprudence. Known for his expertise,
and he was the Maliki Mufti there. And
Hadith.
A Maliki mufti, but his student is a
Shafi'i. Ustaz.
His student is a Shafi'i. Syafi'i and
Asy'ari. At the same time, his name was
also Muad Hasyim Asy'ari. Subhanallah.
Studying, taking courses in the fields
of Hadith, Usul, Quranic studies, and
so on. Then studying specifically, even
completing the Sahih al-Bukhari from
beginning to end. Some people just read
the beginning, middle, and end, then
get an ijazah or sanad. Not him.
Hadratus Syekh studied with his
teachers from the very beginning of
Bukhari to the end, analyzing
everything.
Analyzing it—the term used is 'qaraa'
, not 'samaa'. Not just listening, but
reading. There are ijazahs for
listening, for blessings, but he truly
studied Bukhari from start to finish.
We hope that many young NU figures and
students will follow in the footsteps
of Hadratus Syekh Kiai Hasyim Asy'ari
by studying with many teachers.
Currently, there is a common ailment in
the world of Islamic boarding schools,
even among us, where students sometimes
idolize their teachers too much. As if
there are no other teachers who are
smarter than their own. But in the past
, he was willing to study with anyone.
Thus, his perspective was broad. Right.
He studied Sahih Bukhari and the books
of the Ashabus Sunan under Kiai Mahfud
bin Abdullah Turmusi, covering various
sciences of Hadith, linguistics,
literature, and many others. And he
didn't just listen; he took notes,
transcribed, verified, and so on. Then
he returned to Indonesia in 1899. He
then preached, taught, initiated good
works, and wrote books. When did he
return? In 1899, he opened the Tebu
Ireng Islamic boarding school in
Jombang. He also opened the Salafiyah
Syafi'iyah Madrasah. The Tebu Ireng
boarding school was opened on the 26th
of Rabiul Awal, 1317 Hijri, which
corresponds to 1899 AD. Then he
continued by opening the Salafiyah
Syafi'iyah madrasah. Teaching there. He
had many students; people came from
everywhere to study with him. In 1344
Hijri, specifically on the 16th of
Rajab, 1926 AD, he founded the
Nahdlatul Ulama organization together
with his fellow scholars. Among them
was K.H. Wahab Hasbullah, the founder
of the Tambak Beras boarding school in
Jombang as well. Then K.H. Bisri
Syansuri. Syansuri Badawi was his
student. This one is K.H. Bisri.
Syansuri was his friend. He was Gus
Dur's grandfather on his mother's side.
The founder of the Denanyar boarding
school in Jombang. Then K.H. As'ad
Samsul Arifin of the Situbondo boarding
school, and many other scholars from
Java. And the Jam'iyah Nahdlatul Ulama
was founded. Note the concept of this
Jam'iyah Nahdlatul Ulama. This
socio-religious organization was
founded with the goal of uniting
Muslims in holding firmly to the Quran
and Sunnah. Subhanallah. NU was founded
to motivate and invite all Muslims to
gather, unite, and hold fast under the
guidance of the Quran and the Sunnah.
So, first, let's look at the Quran in
one of the books called the Mukadimah
Qonun Asasi of the Nahdlatul Ulama
organization. There is a book, well,
actually there are two books. The first
one is the Basic Law. The basic law for
the founding of NU.
It all begins with the guidance of the
Quran first. Then 40 hadiths for that
as well. So this illustrates Hadratus
Syekh's thinking, inviting Muslims to
hold fast to the Scripture first. So at
the very least, hopefully this can be
emulated by friends who are active in
the PBNU or LDNU organizations. Try to
follow Hadratus Syekh's example; every
time he makes a statement, he first
checks if there is guidance from the
Quran. That's how it is, because why
was NU founded? To invite people to
hold fast to
the Quran. First, the Quran. Then the
Sunnah.
Now, what is the Sunnah? Sunnah. Sunnah
is the Prophet's application of the
Quran's guidance. That is what Sunnah
means. If one of its sources is hadith
narrations, the primary and main
requirement is that those hadiths must
not contradict the Quran. That is what
is called Sunnah. It's not just any
authentic hadith, no. A hadith that is
good in terms of its narration and its
content does not clash or contradict
the Quran.
This Quran means holding fast to the
Quran and the Sunnah. It is not holding
fast to the Quran and hadiths that
contradict or clash with
the Quran. That's not it. This is NU.
Look at this. Subhanallah. I am also
sure that if there were works by
Hadratus Syekh K.H. Ahmad Dahlan, the
grand concept would certainly be like
this too. But how do we apply that
theory, that principle? So every
statement issued by an organization
that invites people to hold fast to the
Quran and Sunnah must be verified
against the Quran first.
Is that understanding correct? Yes,
only then should it be brought before
others. Exactly. Right. Then, what else
is the purpose? The third purpose for
the founding of Jamiah Nahdlatul Ulama
is to steer Muslims away from deviation
and heresy. See, it aligns with Sharia
rules: Quran, Sunnah, avoid bid'ah.
So, what is the benchmark for this
deviation and heresy? It is when
something is attributed to religion or
Sharia, yet it clashes with the Sunnah
or the Quran. Then the first and
primary benchmark is
the Quran. This must be understood by
our brothers and sisters, the students
of Jamiah Nahdlatul Ulama. The fourth
is "wa tuharriduhum 'ala al-jihad li
i'la-i kalimatillah." Encouraging the
Islamic community to always strive in
jihad to uphold the Word of Allah. Not
for a group, not for others, but for
what? The Word of Allah. So the basic
concept of the founding of Nahdlatul
Ulama by Hadratus Syekh K.H. Muhammad
Hasyim Asy'ari was to invite Muslims to
hold fast to the Quran and Sunnah,
avoid deviation and heresy, and perform
jihad to uphold the Word of Allah. How
can people now say "Allahu Akbar" while
being anti-NU? How is that? That is the
picture of it. Only after that did he
establish Nahdlatul Ulama and spend his
time writing books. Subhanallah. May I
add the names of his books?
Sure. Sure, Ustaz.
Subhanallah. Very well. Well, there are
three main legacies left behind by
Hadratus Syekh. The first is Nahdlatul
Ulama, oh excuse me, Tebu Ireng Islamic
boarding school,
which currently has thousands of
students. Then, Jamiyah Nahdlatul Ulama
, which is the visible, written
manifestation. This is the one that is
rarely used. These two here.
Good writings. How many works did he
produce? Many. Many. You could say
dozens. Yes. Right. Although perhaps
due to one or two reasons. Essentially,
they have not yet become mandatory
reading in NU boarding schools. Let's
introduce them now, if they haven't
been already. If they have, let's
reinforce and re-examine them. Right.
For what purpose? To measure the truth
of every human writing against the
Quran. That's how it is, right? This is
also an invitation from Hadratus Syekh,
Kiai Hasyim Asy'ari. Now, given the
breadth of his knowledge and his
precision in understanding, many books
authored by him emerged. The first is
titled*Adabul Alim wal Muta'alim*...A
title so profound. A book that explains
etiquette and manners. Pardon, not "
ethics." Using the term "ethics" as a
translation for "adab" is incorrect. "
Ethics" comes from Greek and means a
mask. It’s just image-building, then.
But "adab" is not. What is "adab"?
Courtesy. Manners that align with
Sharia guidelines. Adab concerning a
teacher and a student, where each is
necessary according to their position.
And the student, according to their own
status or position as well. The second
one, the*Ta'liqat*, what does it
contain? It contains "rudud." What is
the meaning of "rudud"?
Counter-arguments, right? Countering,
yes. So even back then, he was already
countering; he countered a book that
contained critiques of Nahdlatul Ulama,
written by a Kiai named Syekh Abdullah
Yasin from Pasuruan. And the content...
What? Kiai Abdul Yasin's writing mocked
the ideological concepts of Nahdlatul
Ulama, and Hadratus Syekh responded
with knowledge—in writing. This is a
lesson here. So there is no need for
fighting or bullying,
if there is an issue, especially
character assassination. Pardon me, I
am very sorry. On average, in the world
of Islamic boarding schools—and yes,
it also happens within NU circles,
which is truly unfortunate. If they
don't agree with someone's line of
thought,
character assassination,
character assassination, defamation,
destruction—just like the issues
nowadays where NU is also constantly
slandered with various accusations,
right? Even though they don't know the
facts, they haven't heard it directly,
yet they just jump to judgment.
Hadratus Syekh taught us that if there
is something you disagree with, respond
with writing, if the original form was
in writing. This is his second work.
The third, he has a work titled*
At-Tanbihatul Wajibah liman Yashna'ul
Maulida bil Munkarat*. You see, NU is
known for the tradition of holding
Mawlid celebrations. Hadratus Syekh
wrote several "tanbihat." What does
that mean? Important warnings about
what? The sinful acts found during
Mawlid celebrations. So, how about we
read this one since it's the month of
Mawlid, right? This is the founder of
NU, you know. There’s something here
about attacking. Although the language
is harsh, "attacking" in the sense of
offering advice. Advice, giving a
warning to the Nahdliyin or those who
love the Prophet who hold Mawlid
celebrations but mixed with illicit
acts. Look at how crowded it is now,
right?
Yeah.
Reading the Mawlid. Men and women are
just...
mixed together, dancing and swaying.
Yeah, high-fiving, all sorts of things,
men and women mixed together. Now, if
we have time later, we will dissect it,
we will dissect that. Since it’s the
month of Mawlid, right, or how should
we put it? Fourth, he has a written
work titled Arisalatul Jamiah. What is
that book explaining? About issues
surrounding death. People passing away,
around that, about death, tahlil,
talkin, and things like that, yes. Wa
asrati sa'ah, the signs of the day of
judgment, the nearness of the end times
, and an explanation of the definition
of Sunnah and Bid'ah. Ah, usually the
chapter on Sunnah and Bid'ah is only
found outside of NU, they say. There
are some of our brothers, Ikhwan,
unfortunately, who every day,
especially during the Mawlid season,
Rajab season, Muharram season, they
only study the chapter on Bid'ah.
Labeling this and that as Bid'ah. This
Hadratus Syekh also has it. Let's read
what's inside. See, that's how it is.
It really should be that in NU boarding
schools, these books by Hadratus Syekh
become the main references. At the very
least, if there are other
understandings that contradict the NU
manhaj, there are answers from Hadratus
Syekh.
Yes.
If there’s a correction, accept it
because Hadratus Syekh also corrected
things, right? Fifth, a book titled
Annurul Mubin fi Mahabbati Sayyidil
Mursalin. Oh, the book is quite thick
too. What's it called? Annurul Mubin. A
light that is so clear, shining bright.
What is it about? About explaining the
book. About the definition of the
meaning of loving the Prophet. And
things related to what? How to follow
and revive the Sunnah of the Prophet.
See, it's popular right now among those
outside NU to "do the Sunnah," right?
This is Sunnah, that is Sunnah. Here in
NU, we have this stuff, so please read
the book. Let's do it together. Where
should we do it? Whether at the Hasiil,
at the MU, or at Bubur Subuh, please
read it. Everything is there, right?
Sixth, a book, a hasiyah, which is a
marginal note. Ala Fathirrahman bi
Sharhi Risalatil Wali Ruslan, by
Syaikhul Islam Zakaria al-Anshari. So,
there is a book titled Fathurahman
written by a great scholar in Egypt at
that time, a teacher of scholars, and
he was the Sheikh of Al-Azhar named
Sheikh Zakaria al-Anshari, with the
title Syaikhul Islam because of his
immense knowledge. Now, he provided
marginal notes on that book. Masyaallah
. Seventh, the book Adurarul Muntasirah
fil Masail Tisah Asrah. There is a book
named Adurar al-muntasirah, meaning
pearls that are
er, scattered.
Er, about 19 issues that explain the
principles of Tarekat, saints, then er
things related to the world of Sufism,
all 19 issues are in there. If
dissected, it would be truly excellent.
The eighth is At-Tibyan fi Nahyi
Muqata'at al-Arham wa al-Aqarab wa
al-Ikhwan. Well, a book called
At-Tibyan. If I'm not mistaken, we
opened it briefly recently. Where? At
what mosque was it?
Masjid Raya Bintaro.
Raya Bintaro Jaya, MRBJ, even if just a
little bit. What is it about? About the
explanation of the prohibition of
severing ties of kinship with relatives
, friends, and especially fellow
believers. Then the ninth, Ar-Risalah
At-Tawhidiyah. A small treatise
explaining the creed of Ahlusunnah wal
Jama'ah. Come on, have the NU people
studied this book yet? Read that book,
the Creed of Ahlusunnah wal Jama'ah.
From what is it called? The analytical
thoughts of Hadratus Syekh K.H. Hasyim
Asy'ari. Claiming to be NU, claiming to
be Aswaja, but never reading the book.
How can the claim be true or not?
That's how it is. The 10th, Al-Qalaid
fi Bayani ma Yajibu min al-Aqaid.
Explaining what? The creeds or beliefs
that are mandatory to believe regarding
divinity and so on. And there are many
more, like the book Al-Mawa'id, the
treatise Al-Qanun, and what else?
Muqaddimah, uh, Qanun Asasi li Jam'iyah
Nahdlatul Ulama. Then Arba'ina Haditsan
fi Jam'iyah Nahdlatul Ulama and others.
More than 10 of his writings. Well, he
passed away, rahimahullah, on the 7th
of Ramadan in the year 1366 Hijriah,
coinciding with July 21, 1947. Now,
when do NU people hold the Haul (
commemoration) for Hadratus Syekh?
July 21st.
July 21st.
If the birthday is February 14th,
that's how it is. Ah, so that's it. I
hope Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala grants
blessings to us all. Amin ya Rabbal
Alamin.
Ustaz, since our time is limited.
Very well,
for the next discussion, what book will
you cover?
Insyaallah, I will discuss the basic
concepts of Nahdlatul Ulama.
So if the brothers and sisters want to
follow along with this book,
I
if you have Ustaz Fawas's phone number,
contact him directly. If you don't have
Ustaz Fawas's number, I can tell you,
you can contact Rasil. Okay. For
brothers and sisters who want to follow
the upcoming study on the scientific
works of Hadratus Syekh Hasyim Asy'ari,
you can send a WhatsApp to Rasil at
0811999720. I will repeat it. For
brothers and sisters who want to follow
the upcoming study on the scientific
works of Hadratus Syekh Hasyim Asy'ari,
you can send a WhatsApp to 08111999720.
Insyaallah, we will make copies, Ustaz.
You can order them.
So you can order them later,
handled by the team maybe.
Good. Insyaallah, we might open it here
at Rasil. Insyaallah, the book titled
Muqaddimah Qonun Asasi Li Jam'iyah
Nahdatul Ulama will later continue to
the Arba'in Hadith, 40 hadiths about
the virtues and foundations of
establishing Jam'iyah Nahdlatul Ulama,
the Quran and Hadith. Subhanallah,
complete, right? What do you think, Pak
Kiai? Do you have any experience, Pak
Kiai? We are
Pak Kiai is NU,
right. I once attended a boarding
school back at Buntet Pesantren.
Buntet, Cirebon, right? Yes, my junior
high was an NU school. Uh-huh.
There were books published by NU there
too. But I have forgotten the name of
the book. Well, it was also studied at
our school
back then. Indeed, back then
back then
there was a subject in the boarding
school, at the NU religious school
there was an NU lesson.
Uh-huh. A study on Aswaja.
Nowadays, it's almost gone. Subhanallah
. Ustadz.
Hopefully
hopefully it can be brought back.
Let's bring it back. No. Amin. Amin.
Who knows, maybe Rasil can be the
trigger for the boarding schools, amen.
And perhaps, if I may, Rasil could
visit these NU boarding schools and we
could hold a brief dialogue. Yes.
Amin. God willing, Ustadz.
Whether through their organization or
otherwise, it's up to you.
Understood. God willing, Ustadz. God
willing.
God willing.
Thank you, Ustadz. Thank you, Kiai, for
your time.
This was just the prologue, an opening
that was truly powerful.
We haven't even touched the book yet.
God willing, we will discuss it again
in the next meeting. I am Firman Muslim
Tahir, accompanied by Fajar and Kang
Fahri.
Fahri is signing off for now. We
apologize for any words that may have
been inappropriate. Subhanakallahumma
wabihamdika ashadu alla ilaha illa anta
