Abstract

The awareness to build the image of women positioned as the number two creatures under men does not seem to have gained the roots of the convincing study of the heritage and culture of the archipelago reflected in the stories told in the form of literary works. This paper reveals the image of women from the work of a Muslim figure of the archipelago (Nusantara), Abul Fadlol, in his work Ahlâ al-Musâmarah. This research is an investigation of literary criticism aimed at understanding cultural structures as assembled by the author through texts in his literary works. The approach in this study is qualitatively descriptive. This paper could portray Nusantara women and their significant role in various fields and not only in domestic areas but also in education, by providing facilities to men, even in politics. The story in Abul Fadlol’s 1381 H or about 56 years ago has provided an overview of various portraits, including portraits of the relationship between women and men who are still lame in the perspective of feminism. This paper also has looked at the role and position of women using the perspective of Islamic feminism related to the wilayah (miracle) of women and polygamy that continues to be interpreted among the Muslim society.
