| This research studies “The traditional Malay Literature manuscript in 1600 A.D: Analyse the spelling system and the way of thoughts of the Malay Archipelago, analytically.” This research uses the ‘Takmilah’ Teory approach which was introduced by Dr. Shafie Abu Bakar, who emphasized the ‘perfection’ aspects in writing and also capable of bringing ‘perfection’ among literature enthusiasts. This research states that: the tradition of writing, spelling system and Arabic writing, as soon as it has been lifted as the Al-Qur’?n language, the Wahyu language which then forms the lingua franca, functions as the main medium in spreading Islam globally is thought as ‘complete’ until there is a ‘completion’ of the spelling system and Jawi writing; ‘completion’ of its function and the role of Malay Language as lingua franca, to develop the ways of writing and sparks the growth and development of traditional Malay Literature. This research also claims that from the beginning the spelling system and Jawi writing developed through the process of absorption, adaptation, assimilation and accommodation, to adapt the Jawi writing vowels methodology and finally to form the spelling system and Jawi writing in the past and present. Most important, the spelling system and Jawi writing, which is thought as ‘perfect’ also ‘accomplished’ traditional Malay Literary texts, ‘completion’ of thoughts and traditional thoughts, renew and reinforce akidah, syariat, tasawur and behaviour so much so that Islam is easily accepted and based in the Malay World. This research also shows that, although there is evidence of Syiah influence, however, the influence does not show any sign in the changes of thought from Sunni community in the Malay world. Although there is a widespread of Islamic movements, in certain cases, the past teachings especially in customs, still continued among the Malay Community. Nevertheless, this situation is enough to change, influence and dominate their practice and behaviour till it flourished and influenced the development as well as civilization of the Malay world. |
