Abstract

This article elaborates the significant roles of two kiai in Tasikmalaya during the Physical Revolution in 1945-1950 to build Islamic moderation and their influences on the integrity of the Republic of Indonesia and Pancasila as State Philosophy of this republic. The two kiai were Kiai Abdullah Mubarok, also known as Abah Sepuh, the leader of the Suryalaya Islamic Boarding School and Kiai Rukhiyat, the leader of the Cipasung Islamic Boarding School. They responded to two extreme socio-political movements threatening the integrity of the Republic of Indonesia and Pancasila as the State Philosophy. First, the Military Aggression by the Dutch and their allies to recolonize Indonesia after the Proclamation of Indonesia’s Independence in 1945-1948. Second, the DI/TII socio-political movement led by Kartosuwirjo, proclaiming the Islamic State of Indonesia (NII) on August 7, 1949 in Tasikmalaya. In terms of the responses to the two movements, both kiai rejected and opposed them for they preferred to maintain the integrity of the Republic of Indonesia and uphold Pancasila as the State Philosophy of the Republic of Indonesia. The rejection of these two kiai is a manifestation of Islamic moderation. In fact, kiai in Tasikmalaya had a significant role in building Islamic moderation and defending the Republic of Indonesia from being recolonized by the Dutch in Indonesia and the integrity of Pancasila from being undermined by DI/TII. Second, the fact that kiai had significant roles and influences has positioned the kiai in Tasikmalaya not only as a leader of Islamic boarding school and a central figure in a society, but also as a leader in national movement who was directly involved in national struggle during the physical revolution.
