“…45 Unlike Mukhtār 'Aṭārid, who tended to uphold Sunnī orthodoxy with a wise fatwa, Ahmad Khatib's fatwa of rejection against the teachings of the Naqshabandiyya, Shattariyya, the doctrine of the seven grades and other heterodox Sufism teachings in the Malay-Indonesia archipelago tended to use harsh statement. 46 Ahmad Khatib, an ulama who lived during the transition of political power in Mecca from the Ottoman Turks to the Salafi/Wahhabi of the Saudi dynasty, 47 does not show support for these teachings. 48 Although Ahmad Khatib criticised many Sufi orders teachings that were considered deviant in the archipelago, especially the Naqshabandiyya, it did not mean he rejected them.…”

This article discusses the fatwa of a Jāwī or Malay-Indonesian archipelago ulama who taught in Mecca in the early twentieth century, Sheikh Ahmad Khatib Minangkabau (1860-1916). He was issuing fatwa on heterodox sufism in the archipelago. His fatwa is written in a manuscript from Ogan Komering Ilir entitled Fatwa Sheikh Aḥmad Khaṭīb al-Minangkabāwī (DS 0003 00018). The manuscript has been digitized by DREAMSEA in 2019. This manuscript was probably written when he became a lecturer in Mecca between 1887-1914. It contains questions and answers about the existence of the name Muhammad and rūḥ al-quds (holy spirit) in the human heart that commands the body. Using a social history approach, this study shows that the Fatwa manuscript shows the response of Jāwī ulama who were increasingly influenced by the teachings of Islamic reformism. Ahmad Khatib stated that it was impossible for the spirit of Muhammad and rūḥ al-quds to exist in the body. For him, Muhammad is a human being and the holy spirit is Gabriel, an angel. He stated that whoever believes that both Muhammad and Gabriel are in his/her body is wrong and misguided, and if he/she believes that they are eternal, then he/she is a disbeliever. Ahmad Khatib’s fatwa indicate an attempt to purge the heterodoxy of sufism continually by Sunnī ulama in the early twentieth century.
