Abstract

The Arab village is traced to its population, which on average are Arabs from the Arabian Peninsula, especially from Saudi Arabia and Hadramaut (now Yemen), whose history in this village has developed until now. Like the ethnic Chinese whose settlements are just next door to the Manado Arab village, they are classified as foreign easterners or vreemde oosterlingen. Interestingly, they have their own village head called wijkmeester, and the head of the clan who by the Dutch was given the titular title Luitenant alias Lieutenant. Research with a qualitative approach was carried out to understand the events or history of the Manado Arab village, in which researchers sought in-depth information. about its historical aspects, including describing its social reality. This writing uses historical research methods. The historical method uses four main stages, namely; heuristics, criticism, interpretation, and historiography to answer the problems and try to reveal the process of Islamization and describe the development of Islam in North Sulawesi, especially in Manado. In the middle of the sixteenth century, the influence of East Asians, especially China, further strengthened the process of acculturation and cultural assimilation. After the Chinese Mongol dynasty was able to enter the archipelago at the end of the XIII century, it opened up opportunities for the Chinese to return to the road. A mixture of Arab tribes consisting of traders from Persia, India, and even some Arab traders who were active in trading activities in the archipelago had known trade routes long before Europeans knew the archipelago. Even their descendants were included in this designation, and later on this became the identity and identity of the Arab tribes in Minahasa (Manado).
