Sūrat al-Muʾminūn: A Reading and Reflection
The 114 suras of the Qur'an are an ‘excerpting’ and organisation of the revelations made to the Prophet Muḥammad from the time of the Call until his death. Each sura has its place in the Book in an ordering determined not by chronology, but by a pastoral and spiritual wisdom. They relate to, complement, and reflect back on each other like mirrors along a hallway. Their essential internal coherence and relation to each other is now a well-establis…
Approaches to the History of the Interpretation of the Qur’ān
In recent years, the Qur'ān has come to the forefront of scholarly investigations in Islamic studies. However, the traditional interpretation of the book, commonly termed tafsīr, remains a vast, virtually untapped field of investigation. Many Muslims tend to ignore the material, seeing it as a storehouse of traditional restraints, and scholars frequently gloss over its importance as a historical record of the Muslim community, not appreciating th…

Sufism in Southeast Asia: Reflections and Reconsiderations
In 1961 I published in this Journal a paper on the Islamization of peninsular and insular Southeast Asia. It was a paper I had presented to the first meeting of the conference of historians of Southeast Asia organized in January of that year at the University of Malaya in Singapore by the then Raffles Professor of History, K.G. Tregonning. It was a paper often referred to in discussions concerning the coming of Islam to the Malay world, and attra…

Islam in Southeast Asia: Reflections and New Directions
Study of Islam in Asia is an expression with a compelling ring. It suggests a well defined field of research, a tradition of scholarship, adequate points of orientation, and an authoritative structure of monographs, articles in learned journals, and more general works. The reality however is more complex and at the same time more limited than the expression Southeast Asia suggests. In practice it has generally meant a study of Islam in those area…

The Role of Structural Organisation and Myth in Javanese Historiography
The galaxy of non-indigenous elements confronting the student of Indonesian cultural history has often obscured the fact that, in order to elucidate a valid picture of their role and significance, these elements need to be studied in their own terms, in relation to their own environment and at specific synchronic levels, such levels being but points on the continuum of the historical process. Thus to consider Javanese culture exclusively as a lin…
