Abstract

This study deals with the idea of taṣawwuf in the thought of Shaykh Yusuf al-Makassari (1626-1699), a celebrated Muslim scholar in the Malay-Indonesian Archipelago in the seventeenth century. Shaykh Yusuf al-Makassari had been accepted by people in the corners of the Archipelago and people across the world for his tolerance towards differences. This study aims to explore al-Makassari’s works, such as Zubdah al-Asrār fi taḥqīq ba’ḍa mashārib al-akhyār, Tāj al-asrār fi taḥqīq mashrab al-‘Ārifīn, Maṭālib al-sālikīn, and other treatises written by him, to present his idea on some tasawwuf concepts. Besides to describe the Islamic historical development in Indonesia in the era of 17th -18th centuries in order to find another variants of the spread of Islam used by Shaykh Yusuf al-Makassari as a carrier of taṣawwuf especially in Makassar, Banten, West Java and South Africa.
