Abstract

This article elaborated on the Islamic educational thought of Sheikh Sulaiman Arrasuli or known as Inyiak
Canduang. Shaykh Sulayman Arrasuli was an Islamic education leaders as one of “Kaum Tuo”, a group of
scholars who try to maintain local traditions without banging with the Islamic teaching. This group of scholars
is usually perceived as a traditional circles that are not in line with the ideas of progress. This study wanted to
refute the common perception that develop in the community. In this study can be found that although Inyiak
Canduang was a traditionalist, but that does not mean he was anti-progress, even his thoughts were more
progressive, although he concepted from clasical books. In this case, he is a smart scholar in dialogue between
traditions, religions, and the demands of the era.
