Abstract

This paper aims to reveal the background of text and implied messages that Shekh Abdul Laṭīf Shakūr wanted to convey as an ulama and a man towards women who lived in a society with matrilineal kinship system in Minangkabau. This study used the theory of Genetic Structuralism Lucien Goldmann with dialectic method. The result of the research showed that there was a structure formed by Shekh Abdul Laṭīf Shakūr through his writings so that women, especially women of Minangkabau, had strong personality and were able to think logically for every problem that they had to cope with. He wantd Minangkabau’s women to have a firm principle even though adat forces often bound them to always be passive with their wedding. This was because their future had been determined by the matrilineal family. The presence of the manuscript of the Dunia Perempuan was an antithesis to the problems faced by Minangkabau’s women to balance the application of adat and sharia in Minangkabau adat philosophy completely.
