| Abstract | ||
| The present study seeks to explore the Influence of Islamic culture on native rites and customs of Indonesian Archipelago specially island of Java, using the historical and comparative method. Indonesian Archipelago before the arrival of Islam was totally influenced by Hindu and Buddhist cultures and religions. On arrival of Islam, the natives of this region specially island of Java, accepted Islam without completely abandoning their beliefs and deeds. Accordingly, new rituals and customs were created in this area, which they termed as "Agama Java" (the religion of Java). What is called the " Agama Java", is the combination of elements of Animism, Hindu-Buddhism and Islam and its most important effect can be seen in Kebatinan and rituals related to it, such as Slametan. | ||
