Sunan Ampel State Islamic University Surabaya, also abbreviated as UIN Sunan Ampel (formerly IAIN Sunan Ampel), is one of the state Islamic universities in Indonesia based in Surabaya which organizes multidisciplinary Islamic education as well as secular education including science and technology. The university has history of cultivating the intellectual background for Islamic movements and organizations, especially for Nahdlatul Ulama.[1] UIN Surabaya is named after Sunan Ampel, one of Wali Sanga, the legendary Sufi figures who greatly contributed to the spread of Islam in Indonesia.
History[edit]
At the end of the 1950s, Muslim community leaders in East Java proposed the idea of establishing an Islamic college through the Ministry of Religious Affairs. They held a meeting in Jombang in 1961, and during the meeting, Soenarjo, who later became the rector of Sunan Kalijaga State Islamic University, attended as a resource to convey the necessary issues for the foundation of the college. In the final session of the meeting, the forum endorsed several important decisions, including the establishment of State Islamic University Committee, the faculty of sharia in Surabaya, and the faculty of tarbiyah (Islamic education) in Malang.[2]
On October 9, 1961, the foundation established the faculty of sharia and the faculty of tarbiyah. On October 28, 1961, the Minister of Religious Affairs issued Decree No. 17/1961, to legalize the establishment these faculties. Then on October 1, 1964, faculty of ushuluddin (Islamic belief) in Kediri was inaugurated based on the Decree of the Minister of Religious Affairs No. 66/1964. Bringing together the above three faculties, the Minister of Religious Affairs issued Decree No. 20/1965 on the establishment of IAIN (State Islamic Institute) Sunan Ampel based in Surabaya. Subsequently, IAIN Sunan Ampel expanded rapidly. In the period between 1966-1970, IAIN Sunan Ampel already had 18 faculties spread over three provinces, East Java, East Kalimantan and West Nusa Tenggara.[2]
However, when accreditation of IAIN faculty is applied, five of the 18 faculties were closed to be combined with the other adjacent faculty. Furthermore, with the government regulation no. 33 in 1985, the faculty of tarbiyah in Samarinda was separated and submitted its management to IAIN Antasari Banjarmasin. In addition, the faculty of tarbiyah in Bojonegoro was transferred to Surabaya and changed its status to the faculty of tarbiyah under the management of IAIN Surabaya. During this time, IAIN Sunan Ampel had 12 faculties scattered throughout East Java and one faculty each in Mataram, Lombok and West Nusa Tenggara. Today, IAIN Sunan Ampel is concentrated in five parental faculties located in Surabaya. Since October 1, 2013, IAIN Sunan Ampel changed its name to UIN Sunan Ampel (UINSA) Surabaya based on Presidential Decree No. 65.[2]
Today, the issue arises regarding the transformation into the more secular-oriented curriculum which aimed at the increase in the enrollments. Raised concerns are adverse effects in the quality of religious education which potentially result in the proliferation of radicalism results from the religious ignorance.[3]

Sunan Ampel (also Raden Rakhmat; 1401â1481)[1] was one of the Javanese nine reverred saints Wali Songo, credited for the spread Islam in Java.
According to local history around Demak the mosque of Demak Masjid Agung Demak was built by Sunan Ampel in 1479 CE,[2] but other source credited the construction of the mosque to Sunan Kalijaga.
Genealogy[edit]
The father of Sunan Ampel was Maulana Malik Ibrahim also known as Ibrahim as-Samarkandy ('Ibrahim Asmarakandi' to Javanese pronunciation). His mother was a princess of the ChampaCourt. Sunan Ampel was born in Champa, in present day central Vietnam, in 1401 CE. Sunan Ampel came to Java in 1443 CE, possibly to visit his aunt Dwarawati, a princess of Champa who was married to Kertawijaya, the king of Majapahit.[3]
A long lineage[4] indicates that Sunan Ampel was a descendant of Ahmad al-Muhajir, a Hadhramaut saint who migrated from Basra (now in Iraq) to Yemen to avoid strife during the Abbasid Caliphate. However, another theory claims that Sunan Ampel had Chinese ancestry and identifies him as Bong Swi Hoo.[5] The two theories are not mutually exclusive, because Muslims from China interacted extensively with southeast Asia during the time of Zheng He. It was also common for a Muslim man to marry a local woman when settling far from his country of origin.
Sunan Ampel married Nyi Gede Manila, daughter of a Chinese captain at Tuban named Gan Eng Cu. This marriage produced several children: sons Sunan Bonang and Sunan Drajat became wali songo; daughter Syarifah became the wife of Sunan Ngudung and the mother of Sunan Kudus;[6] and another daughter became the first wife of Raden Patah and mother to Trenggana, who succeeded his father as leader of the Sultanate of Demak.[7] Some sources suggest that Raden Patah was the cousin[8] of Sunan Ampel.
Sunan Ampel died in Demak in 1481 CE, but is buried in Ampel Mosque.

Surabaya (Indonesian: suraËbaja; Javanese: ꦯꦸꦫꦧꦪ, romanized: Suroboyo) is the capital of the Indonesian province of East Java and the second-largest city in the country, after Jakarta. The city has a population of over 3 million within its city limits and over 10 million in the Greater Surabaya metropolitan area, known as Gerbangkertosusila, making it the second-largest metropolitan area in Indonesia.[2] Located on northeastern Java on the Madura Strait, it is one of the earliest port cities in Southeast Asia. According to the National Development Planning Agency, Surabaya is one of the four main central cities of Indonesia, alongside Medan, Jakarta, and Makassar.[6][7]
The city actually was settled in 10th century by Kingdom of Janggala, one of the two Javanese kingdoms that was formed in 1045 when Airlangga abdicated his throne in favour of his two sons. In the late 15th and 16th centuries, Surabaya grew to be a duchy, a major political and military power as well as a port in eastern Java, probably under Majapahit empire.[8] At that time, Surabaya was already a major trading port, owing to its location on the River Brantas delta and on the trade route between Malacca and the Spice Islands via the Java Sea. During the decline of Majapahit, the lord of Surabaya resisted the rise of the Demak Sultanate, and only submitted to its rule in 1530.[9][10] Surabaya became independent after the death of Sultan Trenggana of Demak in 1546.[11][12]
In the 18th and 19th centuries, Surabaya was the largest city in the Dutch East Indies, larger than Batavia (present day Jakarta) and the centre of trading in the nation, which was then a competitor of Shanghai and Hong Kong.[13] The city is known as Kota Pahlawan (city of heroes) due to the importance of the Battle of Surabaya in galvanizing Indonesian and international support for Indonesian independence during the Indonesian National Revolution. Today the city remains one of the important entertainment, financial, industrial, transportational, and commercial hubs of the Indonesian archipelago,[14] arguably second only to Jakarta, and the Port of Tanjung Perak is Indonesia's second-busiest seaport located on northern Surabaya. In 2016, Surabaya received seven consecutive times Adipura Kencana Award from 2010 as number one among 20 cities in Indonesia.[15] Surabaya awarded by a Singaporean Lee Kuan Yew World City Prize as city's special mention.[16]
History[edit]Etymology[edit]
Fighting shark and crocodile, the emblem of Surabaya since colonial times, derived from local folk etymology
Surabaya alludes to a prophecy of Jayabaya, a 12th-century psychic king of Kediri Kingdom, foreseeing a fight between a giant white shark and a giant white crocodile taking place in the area,[17] which is sometimes interpreted as foretelling the Mongol invasion of Java, a major conflict between the forces of Kublai Khan, Mongol ruler of China, and those of Raden Wijaya's Majapahit on 31 May 1293,[18][19] which is now considered the date of the city's founding.[20] The two animals are now used as the city's symbol, with the two facing and circling each other, as depicted in a statue appropriately located near the entrance to the city zoo.[21]
Alternate derivations proliferate: from the Javanese sura ing baya, meaning 'bravely facing danger';[19] or from the use of surya to refer to the sun. Some people consider Jayabaya's prophecy as being about the great war between native Surabayan people and foreign invaders at the start of the war of independence in 1945. Another story tells of two heroes who fought each other to be the king of the city. The two heroes were named Sura and Baya. These folk etymologies, though embraced enthusiastically by its people and city leaders, are unverifiable.[22]

Early history[edit]
Map of Surabaya from an 1897 English travel guide
The Kingdom of Janggala was one of the two Javanese kingdoms that was formed in 1045 when Airlangga abdicated his throne in favour of his two sons. The earliest historical record of Surabaya was in the 1225 book Zhu fan zhi written by Zhao Rugua, in which it was called Jung-ya-lu.[23] The name Janggala was probably originated from the name 'Hujung Galuh' (Old Javanese lit: 'Cape Diamond' or 'Cape Gemstone'), or 'Jung-ya-lu' according to Chinese source. Hujung Galuh was located on the estuarine of Brantas River and today is the part of modern Surabaya city and Sidoarjo Regency.[24] The earliest historical record of Surabaya was in the 1225 book Zhu fan zhi written by Zhao Rugua, in which it was called Jung-ya-lu.[23] The name Janggala was probably originated from the name 'Hujung Galuh' (Old Javanese lit: 'Cape Diamond' or 'Cape Gemstone'), or 'Jung-ya-lu' according to Chinese source. Hujung Galuh was located on the estuarine of Mas River, one of tributaries of Brantas River and today is the part of modern Surabaya and Sidoarjo.[25]
By the 14th to 15th centuries, Surabaya seems to be one of Majapahit ports or coastal settlements, together with Tuban, Gresik, and Hujung Galuh (Sidoarjo). Ma Huan documented the early 15th-century visit of Zheng He's treasure ships in his 1433 book Yingya Shenglan: 'after traveling south for more than 20 li, the ship reached Sulumayi, whose foreign name is Surabaya. At the estuary, the outflowing water is fresh'.[26]Tomé Pires mentioned that a Muslim lord was in power in Surabaya in 1513, though likely still a vassal of the Majapahit.
Ma Huan visited Java during Zheng He's fourth expedition in the 1413, during the reign of Majapahit king Wikramawardhana. He describes his travel to Majapahit capital, first he arrived to the port of Tu-pan (Tuban) where he saw large numbers of Chinese settlers migrated from Guangdong and Chou Chang. Then, he sailed east to thriving new trading town of Ko-erh-hsi (Gresik), Su-pa-erh-ya (Surabaya), and then sailing inland into the river by smaller boat to southwest until reached the Brantas river port of Chang-ku (Changgu). Continuing to travel by land to the southwest, he arrived in Man-che-po-I (Majapahit), where the Javanese king stayed.[27]
Precolonial era[edit]
By late 15th century, Islam began to take its root in Surabaya. The settlement of Ampel Denta, located around Ampel Mosque in today Ampel subdistrict, Semampir district, north Surabaya, was established by a charismatic Islamic proselytizer Sunan Ampel.[28]
In the late 15th and 16th centuries, Surabaya grew to be a duchy, a major political and military power in eastern Java. The Portuguese writer Tomé Pires mentioned that a Muslim lord was in power in Surabaya in 1513, though likely still a vassal of the HinduâBuddhist Majapahit.[9] At that time, Surabaya was already a major trading port,[29] owing to its location on the River Brantas delta and on the trade route between Malacca and the Spice Islands via the Java Sea.[30] During the decline of Majapahit, the lord of Surabaya resisted the rise of the Demak Sultanate, and only submitted to its rule in 1530.[9][10] Surabaya became independent after the death of Sultan Trenggana of Demak in 1546.[11][12]
The Duchy of Surabaya entered a conflict with, and was later captured by, the more powerful Sultanate of Mataram in 1625 under Sultan Agung.[31]:31 It was one of Mataram's fiercest campaigns, in which they had to conquer Surabaya's allies, Sukadana and Madura, and to lay siege to the city before capturing it. With this conquest, Mataram then controlled almost the whole of Java, with the exception of the Sultanate of Banten and the Dutch settlement of Batavia.[31]:31
Colonial era[edit]
The expanding Dutch East India Company took the city over from a weakened Mataram in November 1743. In consolidating its rule over Surabaya, and in time, the rest of East Java, the Dutch collaborated with leading regional magnates, including Ngabehi Soero Pernollo (1720â1776), his brother Han Bwee Kong, Kapitein der Chinezen (1727â1778), and the latter's son, Han Chan Piet, Majoor der Chinezen (1759â1827), all from the powerful Han family of Lasem.[32][33]
In the 18th and 19th centuries, Surabaya was the largest city in Dutch East Indies. It became a major trading centre under the Dutch colonial government, and hosted the largest naval base in the colony. Surabaya was also the largest city in the colony serving as the centre of Java's plantation economy, industry and were supported by its natural harbour.[34] In 1920, a census recorded that Batavia had become the largest city. In 1917, a revolt occurred among the soldiers and sailors of Surabaya, led by the Indies Social Democratic Association. The revolt was firmly crushed and the insurgents given harsh sentences.[35]
Independence era[edit]

Japan occupied the city in 1942, as part of the occupation of Indonesia, and it was bombed by the Allies in 1944. After the Japanese surrender at the end of World War II, Surabaya was seized by Indonesian nationalists. The young nation soon came into conflict with the British, who had become caretakers of the Dutch colony after the surrender of the Japanese.[36]
The Battle of Surabaya, one of the well-known battles of the Indonesian revolution, started after the Arek-Arek Suroboyo (Teenagers of Surabaya) assassinated the British Brigadier Mallaby on 30 October 1945, near Jembatan Merah (the 'Red Bridge'), allegedly with a stray bullet. The Allies gave an ultimatum to the Republicans inside the city to surrender, but they refused. The ensuing battle, which cost thousands of lives, took place on 10 November, which Indonesians subsequently celebrate as Hari Pahlawan (Heroes' Day). The incident of the red-white flag (the Dutch flag at the top of Yamato Hotel's tower that was torn into the Indonesian red-white flag) by Bung Tomo is also recorded as a heroic feat during the struggle of this city.[37]
The city is known as Kota Pahlawan (city of heroes) due to the importance of the Battle of Surabaya in galvanising Indonesian and international support for Indonesian independence during the Indonesian National Revolution.[38]
In June 2011, Surabaya received the Adipura Kencana Award as number one among 20 cities in Indonesia. Surabaya was reported by a Singaporean as being clean and green.[39]

Surabaya has also been awarded the ASEAN Environmentally Sustainable City Award or 'the city with the best sustainable environmental management in ASEAN' in 2011 and 2014.[54] In 2018, Surabaya won the Lee Kuan Yew City Prize along with Hamburg, Germany; Kazan, Russia; and Tokyo, Japan. This award was obtained because Surabaya is considered to be one of the major cities in the world that is able to maintain and manage villages in the middle of the city with excellent government management and community participation amid the rapidly developing city.[55] Surabaya became the first city in Indonesia to receive this award.[55] This award was received directly by the Mayor Tri Rismaharini in Singapore in July 2018.[55] However, despite all that, on the other hand there are not a few areas in Surabaya that still look less organized, especially in the neighbourhoods of Southern Surabaya and Northern Surabaya.[56][57] This is the concern of the city government to reorganize the environment of the region.[58]

Cheng Hoo (Zheng He) Mosque, Surabaya
Majapahit Hotel building is a cultural heritage of Surabaya
Architecture in Surabaya is a mixture of colonial, Asian, Javanese, modern, and post-modern influences. There are still many colonial era relics still standing today, such as Hotel Majapahit and Surabaya Post Office. As a relatively old city in Indonesia and Southeast Asia, most colonial buildings in Surabaya were built around the 17th century to early 20th century.[116] These buildings have influence of Dutch or European style in the Middle Ages.[117]
Before the Second World War, there were many shop houses in the old part of the city, mostly of two-storey.[118] These shop houses have influence of European and Chinese traditions. Although some have been dismantled for new construction, there are still many old buildings that are preserved as cultural heritage and city icons, which are around the area of Kembang Jepun Street, Karet Street, Gula Street, Slompretan Street, and Rajawali Street.[119]
After independence of Indonesia, the centre of Surabaya's architectural development was concentrated only in the area of Jembatan Merah, and its surroundings.

Pondok Modern Darussalam Gontor Ponorogo, also known as Pondok Modern Gontor, or abbreviated as PMDG, or simply Pesantren Gontor, is a pesantren (boarding school style Islamic seminary) in Ponorogo Regency, East Java, Indonesia. Since its founding in 1926, the pesantren has become famous for the application of discipline, heavy emphasis of foreign languages (Arabic and English), and strong network and cadre of alumni. It also has been an educational institution known for not specifically tied to any political and social organization. The pesantren is considered a backbone of Muslim society in Indonesia, producing numerous leading figures of the history of Islam in Indonesia.
History[edit]Pondok Tegalsari[edit]
The forerunner of Pondok Modern Darussalam Gontor began in the 18th century when Kyai Ageng Hasan Besari established Pondok Tegalsari in Jetis Ponorogo village of East Java (10 km to the south of the city of Ponorogo). Pondok Tegalsari was well known in its time and visited by thousands of santris (students of pesantren) from various regions in the archipelago. The leadership of the pondok lasted for six generations.[1][2] In the mid-19th century, during the time of Kyai Hasan Khalifah, Pondok Tegalsari began to decline. At that time, the pondok had a renowned santri named R.M. Sulaiman Djamaluddin, a descendant of the royal family based in Keraton Kasepuhan of Cirebon. Kyai Hasan Khalifah then arranged the marriage of his youngest daughter Oemijatin (known as Nyai Sulaiman) with Sulaiman and they were given the task of establishing a new pesantren and the reformation of the pondok, which in later became a pesantren known as Pondok Gontor Lama.[3]
Pondok Gontor Lama[edit]
Supported by 40 santris brought from Pondok Tegalsari, Kyai R.M. Sulaiman Djamaluddin and his wife founded Pondok Gontor Lama in a place located ±3 km east of Tegalsari and 11 km to the southeast from the city of Ponorogo. At that time, Gontor was still covered in forest and was often used as a hideout for robbers, criminals, and rogues. The third generation leader of the pondok Kyai Santoso Anom Besari was married to Rr. Sudarmi, the offspring of R.M. Sosrodiningrat (the regent of Madiun). Kyai Santoso Anom died in 1918 at a young age and left 7 children, thus the leadership of Pondok Gontor Lama was cut off. Three of the seven sons and daughters of the kyai eventually went on to revive the pondok by updating and improving their system and curriculum.[4]
Pondok Modern Darussalam Gontor[edit]
After studying at various traditional pesantrens and modern educational institutions, the three sons of Kyai Santoso Anom finally returned to Gontor and on September 20, 1926 (12 Rabiul Awwal 1345) for the commemoration of the Islamic ProphetMuhammad. There they pledged the establishment of Pondok Modern Darussalam Gontor (PMDG). All three were known as Trimurti Founders of Pondok Modern Darussalam Gontor, namely Ahmad Sahal, Zainudin Fananie, and Imam Zarkasyi. On October 12, 1958 (28 Rabi'ul Awwal 1378), Trimurti donated PMDG to the ummah, which was deemed highly as a sacrifice of private property for the benefit of the society. The recipient of the mandate was represented by 15 members of Gontor alumni (IKPM) who later came to consist the Waqf Board of PMDG.[5]
Organization and administration[edit]
Hasan Abdullah Sahal, the kyai and the chairman of PMDG since 1985.
Waqf Board[edit]
The highest institution in the educational committee of PMDG is the Waqf Board. The board is a 15-member legislative body, responsible for all the governance including the implementation and development of the education in PMDG. Members of the board consist of PMDG alumni who are elected every 5 years.[6]
Leadership[edit]
For daily duties and obligations, the mandate is run by the leadership of PMDG. The leadership of PMDG is the executive body instituted after the death of the founders, chosen by the Waqf Board every 5 years. The chairman of pondok is a mandate of the Waqf Board who possesses the authority to execute the decisions of the board and takes its responsibility. PMDG leaders, in addition to leading the institutions and sections in the educational committee, are also obliged to take care of the santris in accordance with the Sunnah.
In his first trial in 1985, after the Trimurti, the Waqf Board established three chiefs of Pondok to lead the post-Trimurti governance of the pesantren. All three are Shoiman Luqmanul Hakim, Abdullah Syukri Zarkasyi, and Hasan Abdullah Sahal. In 1999, with the death of Shoiman Luqmanul Hakim, the Waqf Board appointed Imam Badri as his successor. In 2006, with the death of Imam Badri, he was succeeded by Syamsul Hadi Abdan.[7] Currently, the leadership of PMDG is held by Abdullah Syukri Zarkasyi (since 1985), Hasan Abdullah Sahal (since 1985), and Syamsul Hadi Abdan (since 2006).
Educational institution[edit]Kulliyatul Mu'allimin / Mu'allimat Al-Islamiyyah[edit]
Gontor Putri, the division for female students.
Kulliyatul Mu'allimin Al-Islamiyyah (KMI) is an educational institution for male santris, with a learning period of 4 to 6 years, covering the secondary educational level. KMI was established on 19 December 1936, after the 10 years anniversary of PMDG. There is also Kulliyatul Mu'allimat Al-Islamiyyah Pondok Gontor Putri which is the equivalent of KMI for female santris. According to the decision of the Waqf Board, on 7 Rabiul Awwal 1411, KMI Gontor Putri was officially established in Mantingan, Ngawi Regency. This pesantren for women is 100 km from the main area of PMDG. The curriculum and learning program of Gontor Putri is similar to KMI, with adjustments to local content and emphasis on training specifically for female santris.
University of Darussalam[edit]
The University of Darussalam (UNIDA) is a pesantren college where all the students are in campus dormitories under the guidance of the rector (as kyai). UNIDA was established on 17 November 1963 (1 Rajab 1383) by Trimurti and managed under the Waqf Board. Currently, Amal Fathullah Zarkasyi serves as the rector. Below are the faculties and its courses existing under UNIDA:
Academics[edit]Orientation[edit]
The scholarly orientation at PMDG is aimed at forming a person with devout Islamic faith and morals and can serve the community at the same time. PMDG proclaimed that 'education is more important than teaching'. There are four major outlines of the direction and purpose of education at PMDG, which are the education for community, simplicity, no partying, and demanding knowledge of God.[8][9][10] As a modern pesantren, the curriculum of PMDG covers both traditional Islamic educational and the secular educational materials.
Foreign partnerships[edit]
Pondok Modern Darussalam Gontor aims to reflect the leading international Islamic educational institutions, and it has established the partnership with the four educational institutions which heavily influenced the school orientation. Chiefly, Al-Azhar University of Cairo, Egypt, which has a vast waqf and scholarly resources, that it can send the scholars across the world and provide scholarships for thousands of students from various parts of the world to study at the university. There are also Jamia Millia Islamia, located in Delhi, India, Shanggit in Mauritania, and Santiniketan, India.[8][9][10]
