(In reflections in the Najib Al Keylani’s novel entitled Azra Jakerta)
Abstract
"Islamic realism" or "Islamism literary" was formed in the second half of the twentieth century, as a literary school in Arabic countries especially in Egypt and there were some prominent poets and writers who tended to it. Nagiub kylany, an Egyptian writer was pioneer in this literary trend. He depicts in Azra Jakarta’s novel, the social and political events in Indonesia in the second half of 1965 and he provides through the events of the novel, particularly by the performance and character’s dialog, appropriate examples of Islamic literature. Some of the literary assessors have seen (or have known)that this approach resembles to the socialist realism optimistically that was formed in the first half of the twentieth century, in contrast, they were the realist criticisms or western Europe’s pessimism in Soviet. Despite some of the apparent similarities between the two schools "Islamic realism" and "Socialist realism" ,there are some substantial differences in ideas and their ideology. This paper tries to extract and analyze and examine two mentioned schools attitude toward concepts such as "God", "man", "optimism", "interpretation of social phenomena and natural", " interpretation of the spiritual phenomena", "way of dealing with opponents" and "man value and position" From amidst the character's dialogue and explanation events, it tries to show the difference of two literary schools.
