Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Malik Ibrahim, known as Kakek Bantal and Sunan Gresik in Indonesia, was one of the followers of Hurufi. Malik Ibrahim Fazlullah bin Abi Muhammad Naimi, whose main goal was to spread Hurufism in Samarkand, was a close comrade-in-arms of Tabrizi. Malik Ibrahim, who came to Samarkand on a special mission and tried to approach the palace of Emir Teymur, realized that he was being followed here and took the name of Makdum Ibrahim al-Samarkandi and went away. Fate brings him to Indonesia, where he begins to spread Islam. Today in Indonesia, he is considered one of the 9 sages. The world-famous film company “Netflix” used the author's research on the introduction of Islam to Indonesia by Azerbaijanis in the Indonesian film “Leyla-Majnun” directed and written by Monty Tiua and co-written by Alim Sudion.
