520 |a This study examines the development of Hadith authority in the Malay Archipelago by tracing the roles of five prominent Islamic scholars from Malaysia, Indonesia, and Brunei Darussalam, namely Sheikh Tahir Jalaluddin, Sheikh Abdullah Fahim, Sheikh Nawawi Al-Bantani, Sheikh Muhammad Kasyful Anwar, and Sheikh Muhammad Daud Al-Fathani. The significance of this research lies in its endeavor to understand how the scholarly authority of Hadith was established and evolved in the Malay region within its socio-political and intellectual context. By employing Michel Foucault’s theory of knowledge authority, this study reveals that Hadith authority is not solely based on the scholars’ depth of knowledge, but also on their intellectual networks, educational institutions, and methods of knowledge transmission. This research adopts a descriptive qualitative method with a literature review and historical approach. Data were collected from various primary and secondary sources, including the scholars’ works, academic studies, and historical documents. The analysis was conducted by investigating how the scholars acquired scholarly legitimacy, disseminated Hadith, and influenced Islamic thought in the Malay Archipelago. The results of the study indicate that each scholar had a distinct approach in establishing Hadith authority, whether through formal education, writing scholarly works, or involvement in global scholars’ networks. Some scholars, such as Sheikh Nawawi Al-Bantani and Sheikh Muhammad Daud Al-Fathani, had influence that extended to the Middle East, while others focused more on the reform of thought and education in the Nusantara. This study provides new insights into the dynamics of Hadith authority in the Malay Archipelago and its contribution to the development of global Islamic scholarship.
