Abstract

The background of this research was the fact that wali (the saint of Islam) was a problem that had long existed in the history of Islam. The problem often brought different opinions and disputes in the Moslems circle, and even ended in conflict between Moslems. The cause was that wali was not only as the type and substance of a good knowledge of religion but it could also lead to superstition which might mislead the Moslims. The modern lift provided many facilities in one hand, and made some people frustrated on the other hand so that some people tended to find an alternative way to give their peaceful life back. The problems discussed are : 1.How the opinion of Javanese satiety on wali was. 2.Why the society had that kind of opinion. 3.How the opinion was seen from Islam point of view (tasawuf / mysticism) The answers to the problems are expected to be able to broaden our horizon and to revise the false opinion on wali. This research takes the form of literary study and the tasawuf (Islam mysticism) and historical approach was used. The data was collected by means of documentation and interviews, and an analytic descriptive analysis was used. The results of the researd showed that: 1.The society had a positive opinion on wali due to the wisdom of wali when they spread Islam in Java. 2.The social condition and background in the past had a great influence on the opinion of the society on wali. 3.The opinion of the society was parallel to and on the basis of wali. 4.The development of the opinion of Javanese society on the problem showed that the social background and way of thinking had a great influence on the social way of thinking in the past.
