KOSMOLOGI ISLAM KASULTANAN NGAYOGYAKARTA HADININGRAT
Abstract: This article
scrutinizes the concept of cosmology held by the Kasultanan Ngayogyakarta
Hadiningrat. The writer observes that the process of islamization in Java
island has, more or less, influenced the mindset of javanese people, including
the people of Kasultanan Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat. Once islamized, the
Sultanate has adapted islamic teachings and made them as a part of its cultural
mindset. In this stage, the acculturation has been done succesfully. Such
acculturation has subsequently influenced their view on cosmology, which is
different from—and does not reflect—Hinduism’s and Buddhism’s cosmology. The
use of title Senopati ing Alaga Sayidin Panatagama Khalîfatullah by the sultans
of Yogyakarta clearly indicates that they respect the old concept. Since the
advent of Islam, javanese culture, including the culture of the Sultanate of
Yogyakarta, has been subsequently islamized.
