6. The Philippine Muslims was at one time a prevailing gathering in the
nation. They have 500 years political history, so far the longest political
experience contrasted with different gatherings in the entire Philippines.
Their way of life is a mix of Islam and adat. Adat is the whole of both pre-
Islamic culture and the philosophical understanding of the Muslims on the
lessons of Islam. It is itself the enduring commitment of the Philippine
Muslims to the nation's national body politic. Nonetheless, to know the
Muslim history, one ought to comprehend the part of Islam in achieving
recorded advancement. It is this Islam that really created gallant
opposition against western imperialism. The Philippine Muslims today
wound up known as social groups attributable to their way of life surviving
remote hegemonism right up 'til today.
7. “The historical backdrop of the Philippine
Muslims is a piece of the foundation of the
verifiable advancement
Filipino history specialists
of the entire
like Dr.
nation.
Renato
Constantino declared that no Philippine history
can be finished without an investigation of
Muslim advancement (1990:29). “
8. “The Philippines has two lines of recorded advancement. The
primary line, which is the more established, came to create in
Mindanao and Sulu. Furthermore, this alludes to the Muslim line of
chronicled improvement. Had not this line of authentic
improvement been exasperates by western expansionism, Islam
may have diagrammed the whole predetermination of the
Philippine nationhood. Outer variables cleared into the nation and
brought the second line. The Hispanized Filipinos were fundamental
to the improvement of this second line. This is the result of the
considerable verifiable encounters of the Filipino individuals under
western run the show.”
9. “Mindanao and Sulu are the first country of the Philippine Muslims. These
territories are currently the third political subdivision of the Philippines. They are situated
at the southern piece of the nation, and lie around hundred miles north of equator. The
regions involve a key position at the focal point of delivery line between the Far East and
the Malayan world. They are arranged north of Sulawise and toward the west is the
territory of Sabah. Mindanao and Sulu has an aggregate land territory of 102,000 square
kilometers. It is a ripe locale and known to be rich in agrarian ranch, marine and mineral
assets. As detailed, the greater part of the nation's rain woods are found in Mindanao.
While it’s horticultural harvests incorporate rice, corn, root crops, vegetables, cassava and
natural products. Marine items like ocean growth generation, angle and additionally gas
and oil are overwhelming in the Sulu Sea. Fifty nine percent of fish and sardines are to a
great extent taken from the Sulu Sea. Terrain Mindanao has considerable mineral stores.
Zamboanga del Sur has gold, silver, lead, zinc store; Davao oriental has chromite holds;
marble stores for Davao del Norte and oil store in South Cotabato. These colossal assets of
the southern islands have made Mindanao the place that is known for guarantee.“
10. “Be that as it may, the primary grouping of the Philippine
Muslim populace is bound generally toward the western side of
Mindanao down to the Sulu Archipelago. In terrain Mindanao, the
Muslims are prevailing just in Lanao and Maguindanao regions.
While whatever remains of the Muslim populaces are scattered in
adjacent areas, for example, Zamboanga landmass, North
Cotabato, Sultan Kudarat, South Cotabato, Davao Oriental, Davao
del Sur and Sarangani island. In the Sulu Archipelago, the Muslims
are for the most part predominant in three island regions of Basilan,
Sulu and Tawi-Tawi.”
11. Muslim
Ethnic
Groups
“Ethnic is an Italian expression for
country. An ethnic group might be
characterized as inborn gathering which has its
own particular dialect, hold in like manner an
arrangement of custom unique in relation to
others whom they are in contact. It has its own
particular domain from which its ethnic
character is inferred, and hence turns into a
joining factor for bunch union. The Muslim
ethnic gatherings in Mindanao and Sulu are
connected by both ideological and land factors.“
12. “The Muslims in the south are additionally socially
connected to Muslim nations in Southeast Asia, for example,
Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunei and the Patani of southern
Thailand. They are made out of eleven ethnic gatherings.
Each gathering has its own particular dialect yet just a
couple of controls a political unit like a region or regions. A
few gatherings talk one dialect with three varieties like the
Maranao, Iranun and Maguindanaon. The Sama individuals
have one dialect with numerous variety, for example, the
vernacular of the Jama Mapun, and the Bangingi.”
13. 1. The Maranao-“Actually, Maranao implies individuals of the lake.
Their country is called Lanao which implies lake. Their most
seasoned settlement began around here, and up right up 'til the
present time, very populated groups still speck the lake. Their
dialect is like Maguindanaon and Iranun. One should be confounded
as to which of them claims the native language since the Maranao
and Iranun can comprehend 60% of the Maguindanaon dialect. At
any rate , these gatherings live in nearness. Nonstop contact
enables them to create or share a typical work on including dialect.“
14. “The Maranao are gathered in Lanao region. They involve the most
vital place in Mindanao attributable to their entrance to Iligan narrows in the
north and Illana cove in the south. Amid the provincial time frame, they
battled against the Spaniards, generally under the banner of the
Maguindanao sultanate. Like other Muslim ethnic gatherings, the Maranao
are overcome and have offered forfeit with regards to their country and Islam.
All through the provincial time frame, Lanao was joined as one area of the
Maguindanao sultanate. Seeing the significance of Lanao, the American
pilgrim government in Manila urged landless Filipinos to relocate to
Mindanao. Most pioneers focused on Lanao as their last goal. After around 50
years, the Filipino pilgrims wound up set up in the zone north of Lanao. This
inevitably prompted the division of Lanao into Del Norte and Del Sur starting
1960s.”
15. “Lanao is a land rich in writing. Darangan is a case of
this. The presence of darangan authenticates the level of
human progress that the Maranao have accomplished at a
certain point.”
“Potential assets like lake and farming area are all that
could possibly be needed to help to make the objective of
darangan into the real world. The lake in the core of Lanao
Del Sur is the greatest lake in the Philippines. It is so far the
present wellspring of vitality supply – at any rate providing
around 80% power framework of the entire Mindanao.”
16. “The Mindanao State University
is situated at Lanao's capital,
Marawi City. Most pioneers in
Mindanao are in certainty results of
the MSU. 60% of its best teachers
are Christians Filipinos.”
17. “Maranao society is a shut society. The whole regions of Lanao Del Sur,
especially at the region of the lake are untouchable to outcasts. The way of life
of the general population are in their conventional clothing, the malong and
the abaya. This is the main place in the Philippines whose way of life isn't
influenced with the western pattern. The Maranao contact to the outside
comes through Iligan City and Malabang. Iligan City is 40 minutes ride from
Marawi City. Malabang a waterfront town of Lanao Del Sur requires over one
hour to reach. Under a long range design of Christian development in
Mindanao, the Christians would enter the core of Lanao from three zones –
from Iligan in the north, Malabang in the south and Wao from the east. They
in actuality controlled these territories for long time as of now.”
18. 2. The Maguindanao-“Initially, Maguindanaon is the name of the
family or administration which came to administer nearly the entire
island of Mindanao, especially the previous Cotabato. It later alludes
to the Muslim individuals who live in the Pulangi valley which
sprawls the Southwestern piece of Mindanao. It is consequently, the
Maguindanaon are called individuals of the plain. They
acknowledged Islam at the last quarter of fifteenth century. Add up
to Islamization of the entire Pulangi region succeeded just with the
landing of Sharif Kabungsuan a sovereign from Johore who came to
Mindanao after the fall of Malacca and adjacent regions to Dutch
colonialists in 1511.”
19. “The best commitment of the Maguindanao to human
advancement in Southeast Asia were the sultanates of
Maguindanao and Buayan. These sultanates climbed all the
while after the entry of Sharif kabungsuan who established
the principal sultanate in Mindanao. Amid its prime, the
sultanate of Maguindanao brought the entire terrain of
Mindanao under its control. It turned into the instrument of
the Muslims in Mindanao in frustrating the western
expansionism.”
20. Cotabato been the seat of the Maguindanao
“The
sultanate. This
had
is the hereditary place where there is the
Maguindanao including the slope ethnic gathering, for example, the
Tiruray, Tasaday and Subanun. As a result of its wide valley,
Cotabato region has as far back as the rice ganary of the nation. The
colonialists had as far back as been pulled in to the rich place that is
known for Cotabato. Ordinarily, the Spaniards made Cotabato as
capital of Mindanao amid their military occupation. This provincial
arrangement, anyway succeeded just amid the American time
frame. It could arrange the principal Filipino settlement in 1912.”
21. “The Maguindanao are the hardest hit of the Filipino
settlement. Their political power lessened after long stretch
of battling and opposing imperialism and Christianization,
especially toward the start of the twentieth century. The
Maguindanao battled alone without remote help amid this
period. Be that as it may, by 1970s, three-fourth of their
country were lost to Filipino pioneers, generally Ilongo and
Cebuano. The Manila government made in the region the
five territories of Maguindanao, Cotabato, South Cotabato,
Sultan Qudarat and Sarangani.”
22. 3. The Iranun-“These individuals have possessed the region flanking between
Lanao del Sur and Maguindanao territory. They asserted to be the beginning
of these two ethnic gatherings. The dialect of the Maranao and Maguindanao
is emphatically established in the Iranun tongue. The Iranun may maybe be
the mother dialect and the rest are only a negligible lingos. For a few
centuries, the Iranun framed piece of the Maguindanao sultanate. Their way
of life got much impact from the Maguindanao as opposed to the Maranao.
There was a case in the past the seat of the Maguindanao sultanate was
arranged at Lamitan and Malabang that were the fortifications of the Iranun
society. They battled the western intruders under the banner of the
Maguindanao sultanate. The Iranun were fantastic in oceanic movement. They
used to employ the course interfacing the Sulu Sea, Moro bay to Celebes Sea,
and attacked the Spanish held regions en route.”
23. “The Iranun have likewise achieved a level of social association
tantamount to the Maguindanao or the Tausug. This is confirm by the datu
arrangement of authority where a solitary initiative is perceived. An Iranun
datu, similar to a sultan, employed focal control over his kin. By virtue of their
little populace, the Iranuns have been overwhelmed by their neighbor and
kept them from having their own sultanate. However ethnic awareness has
been solid as the Iranun kept on safeguarding their own particular manners of
life and even to outline their own political predetermination. Like other Muslim
gatherings, the Iranuns are additionally best in class in the field of training.
They effectively partake in neighborhood advancement; their experts have
figured out how to involve enter positions in the administration, maintain their
own business substances and Islamic establishments like masjid and madrasa.”
24. 4. The Tausug-“Prof. Muhammad Nasser Matli
contended that the term Tausug is a slang word
and started from two words: tau (individuals) and
mama isug (overcome). In this manner, Tausug
implies overcome individuals.”
25. “Prior to the happening to Islam, the Tausug had officially settled a focal
government. At the point when Islam came, Tausug pioneers acknowledged Islam. They
didn't help it. When they moved toward becoming Muslims they made themselves models
by injecting Islamic qualities and legislative issues to the legislature. The outcome was the
spread of equity in the land. Seeing the magnificence of Muslim administration, the whole
locals at last acknowledged Islam. The tranquil triumph of Islam in Sulu amidst the
thirteenth century prompted the Islamization of nearby governmental issues. This was the
procedure that achieved the foundation of the Sulu sultanate in 1450. Numerous Tausug
pioneers were sent outside Sulu to additionally fortify the Sulu sultanate impact. This was
the starting point of the development of Tausug people group in Tawi-Tawi, Palawan,
Basilan, Zamboanga, and Sabah. Up to this period, these spots are as yet the most loved
goal of Tausug transients who have been uprooted by the wars and clashes between the
Muslims and the Philippine government.”
26. 5. The Yakan-“The term Yakan is an error of the word yakal
by the Spaniards. While the term Basilan has started from
two words basi (iron) and balani (head honcho). In the
antiquated time Basilan was thickly secured by the yakal
trees. Outside individuals frequently mixed up the name of
the yakal trees as the local character. Amid frontier period
the Spaniards marked the occupants of Basilan as Yakan, and
progressed toward becoming conveyed up to the present.”
27. “Like other Muslim territories, Basilan has been the objective of Christian
infiltration since the Spanish period. Her rich assets like timber and fruitful agrarian
land and also her geological closeness to Zamboanga City has made her helpless
against exhibit industrialist misuse and Christian control. There have been as of now
various districts where the Filipino pilgrims have the high ground. Isabela, Maluso,
Lamitan and different groups have a staggering Christian populace. Furthermore,
their populace development and group extension are continued proceeding. Huge
tract of terrains which are key are for the most part possessed by the Filipino
pioneers. There are numerous zones where the Yakans move toward becoming
minoritized, and further uprooted from their own particular terrains. In the regions
where they are now minoritized the Yakans are presented to underestimation. In
legislative issues, there are numerous occurrences before, top authority fell under
the control of the outside individuals.”
28. “The way of life of the Yakans is like the Tausugs. Its
inward establishment lies on the soul of martabat. For the
external side, religious organization like masjid and madrasa,
curios and the immense number of Yakan experts, ulema,
lawmakers and contenders strengthened further the quality
of the Yakan culture. These two establishments are solidly
planted in the core of the Yakans. This is their genuine
quality. The test of the Yakans today is to guide their young
age to affirm their rights and create trust in their both
material and non-material culture.”
29. 6. The Sama- “The Sama personality got from the term sama-sama which implies harmony or aggregate exertion.
The Sama individuals are exceedingly scattered and scattered in the Sulu Archipelago. They are geologically
differentiated inferable from their introduction to oceanic exercises and angling. There are five sub-groups that
make up the Sama individuals. Helping each other is perceived as standard of the Sama individuals. Incorporated
into the Sama gather are the Badjao known as the ocean tramps of Sulu Archipelago and Celebes ocean. The
Badjao individuals call themselves Sama Laut. In Malaysia, they are called Orang Laut. Every one of these
portrayals point to them as being watercraft individuals. They generally move starting with one island then onto
the next, living in their little vessel for quite a long time or even a very long time without mooring or coming to
town to purchase their requirements. The Badjao don't build up a perpetual group like the Arab and the Cossacks
in focal Asia. They have not ready to build up a political foundation that can propel their aggregate enthusiasm of
their general public. Their social association don't approach even the level of a faction, one might say, since they
have no perceived group pioneer. Their social structure is leveled. Rich individuals or elitism is totally missing in
Badjao society. Every one of them have a place with the poor strata. Family structure is the main factor that
makes the Badjao society conceivable. Parts and obligations are designated to each part starting from the parents
to their kids, from the grown-up to the youthful ones. The father goes about as pioneer; the mother is in charge of
cooking; youngsters gather fire woods in the seaside regions, and helps assemble ocean bottom and get water. As
watched, the entire Badjao family constitutes likewise the financial unit, which implies, every one of them need to
cooperate (sama-sama) for their survival.”
30. “Neediness and backwardness are the two essential factors
that keeps each Badjao family from sending their kids to class. Kids
are required at home or should go with their folks looking for their
day by day sustenance. This is the reason the Badjao society endures
a high absence of education rate. Short of what one percent can
read the Qur'an or Roman letter set. Their current condition has
crumbled. They are exceedingly presented to the mistreatment of
Tausug warlords. They are regularly misused in some monetary
exercises. Insignificant reward or pay are given for their work, and
low cost for their products, similar to lobsters and fish.”
31. “The Sama individuals who possessed Tawi-Tawi are called by their
place of home. Hence, there is the Sama Balimbing, Sama Simunul or Sama
Sibutu. These gatherings claim to be the source of all Sama sub-bunches
scattered all through the Sulu Archipelago. They occupied most real islands of
Tawi-Tawi. While in the terrain the Sama focus is restricted to Balimbing and
Sapa-Sapa. These individuals have an abnormal state of proficiency rate
contrasted with other Sama sub-gathering. Relatively every Sama barangay in
the territory has a government funded school. Higher institutional learning is
additionally accessible, for example, the MSU-Tawi-Tawi and the Tawi-Tawi
Regional Agricultural College (TRAC). Most best government positions are held
by Sama. Like the Tausugs, the Sama are presented to all fields of teach and
usually to discover them in national organizations involving key positions.”
32. “The Sama Bangingi are additionally viewed as real gathering inside the Sama ethnic
gathering. Their lingo is only a variety of the Sama dialect. Geological separation being
isolated from other Sama bunches via oceans has caused the variety of their vernacular
from their primary language. In any case, by and large all Sama individuals see each other.
The Bangingi have a very much created social association practically identical to the
Tausugs. Back to the sultanate time frame each Bangingi people group had its own
particular panglima and maharajah as the most astounding and powerful individuals in
their general public. The tip of Zamboanga promontory, Pilas and Tungkil island were once
overwhelmed and led by the Bangingi pioneers. They had four in number Kuta at
Zamboanga before the Spaniards involved it. The last took half a month prior to they could
oust the Bangingi from their fortifications. The Bangingi were great mariners. They were
the principal assemble in this nation to achieve Bengal inlet and investigate the Indian sea.
They found the association of Sulu ocean , the straits of Malacca and the Indian sea. The
vast majority of the sultanate campaigns to Visayas and Luzon were charged by the
Bangingi warriors.”
33. “The Bangingi not at all like the Badjao are exceedingly
presented to the Filipino society and its foundation. Greater
part of them has considered in the Filipino school, and
figured out how to possess enter positions in the
administration. Sadly, they neglected to fabricate their own
particular organizations like school, political gatherings and
organizations that are equipped for affecting social changes
in the general public. There are just individual activities. The
Bangingi stay a long way from aggregate social advance.”
34. “Jama Mapun are another Sama sub-gathering. They call their lingo as
pullun mapun which is a piece of the Sama dialect. The term mapun remains
for west. They call themselves as Jama Mapun on the grounds that they are
arranged at the far off west of Sulu. They are assembled to a great extent at
the Turtle island, Cagayan de Tawi-Tawi an island region situated at the
outskirt adjoining Sabah. They are additionally found in southern Palawan.
Like the Bangingi, the Jama Mapun received changeless settlement,
henceforth they have an obvious social association where the panglima is
perceived as best group pioneer. Amid the Sulu sultanate period, Jama Mapun
used to be of a military vital significance to the sultanate. It used to be the
sultanate's starting base to secure the unquestioning dedication of the
panglima of Sabah and Palawan.”
35. “The entire Cagayan de Tawi-Tawi is perceived as nearby
government unit, a region under the region of Tawi-Tawi. With this
the Jama Mapun have been subjected to focal control from Manila
since the times of the Philippine Commonwealth government in
1936. Government school and organizations were set up there and
set under the control of the nearby individuals. The island is viewed
as key place for the AFP forward power, since it is arranged amidst
the Sulu ocean and South China ocean, and neighboring Sabah. The
administration manufactured airplane terminals, which the military
can use for propel troop developments in the Sulu sea.”
36. 7. The Sangil- “The Sangil originated from Sangihe an
archipelago sprawling the Celebes sea only south of the
Mindanao ocean. Their movement to Sarangani region and
to the seaside regions of Davao del Sur and South Cotabato
was in front of the happening to Islam to Southeast Asia.
They held onto Islam later because of their nonstop contact
with their homeland, which moved toward becoming
Islamized, and additionally with the rising Muslim people
group in Maguindanao and Sulu in the fourteenth century.”
37. “The Sangil talk a dialect like Bahasa, and in the Philippines, to Tausug.
They additionally advanced their own particular social association
related with focal administration, which empowered them to wage fight
numerous
occurrences the Sangil
against the Dutch and Spanish
aligned
imperialism. There were
themselves to the Maguindanao
sultanate. They used to contribute war paraws, warriors and arms in real
endeavors to Spanish held-domains. The Sangil have likewise high
political and Islamic cognizance. They are dynamic in their battle for self-
assurance as a component of their technique to have their way of life and
social foundations saved and grew further. They prevailing finally. In
1992, the Sarangani area was conceived expected to contain the
commotion of the Sangil.”
38. 8. The Kaagan- “The Kaagan possessed for the most part Davao
zones. They moved toward becoming Muslims because of contact
with the Maguindanao sultanate, and later fortified with the landing
of some Tausug bunches who composed the Kaagan culture. No big
surprise the Kaagan dialect has numerous bahasa sug root words.
With the flight of the Tausug and Maguindanao impacts at the
tallness of the Filipinization procedure. A large portion of them have
been minimized and were defenseless to enhance their general
public in light of the fact that their social association did not
enhance as those in Lanao and Sulu”
39. 9. The Kolibugan- “The term kolibugan is a Sama word which signifies
"crossbreed". Initially, they are a piece of the Subanun ethnic gathering, an
indigenous people possessing the inside of the Zamboanga promontory. Their
neighbors, especially the Sama Bangingi and the Tausugs called these
Islamized Subanun as Kolibugan in light of the fact that their way of life has
been adjusted by their Muslim neighbors and for quite a long time there has
been intermarriage with different gatherings that delivered new ages, thus
they are called Kolibugan. These individuals still talk the Subanun dialect and
hold the Subanun sort of social association, which is constrained to faction
introduction with less political slant. Today, the term Kolibugan is connected to
all Subanun who moved to beach front territories and intermarried with the
Muslims, lastly grasped Islam.”
40. 10. The Palawan- “The early Muslim tenants in territory Palawan
were the Panimusan. These individuals progressed toward becoming
Muslims because of close contact with the Sulu Sultanate. Numerous
Tausug amid the sultanate time frame came to Palawan so as to
acquaint Islam with the nearby individuals. The Muslim focus is for
the most part in the southern piece of Palawan, for example,
Batarasa, Rizal, Quezon, Brooke's Point and Espanola. In these
regions the Muslims are likely overwhelming and hold political
power. Segregated Muslim people group are additionally found in
Narra, Roxas, Taytay and Aborlan.”
41. Since the fall of the Sulu sultanate, contact between the Palawani and the Tausugs was relatively lost. They have been
confined to each different as there is no immediate exchange or social connection between the two individuals.
42. 11. The Molbog- “The Molbog are basically kept in the Balabac islands situated at the southern tip of Palawan. They got
Islamic impact and later grasped Islam from Brunei Muslim teachers. The engendering of Islam was dynamic amid the
fifteenth century when Muslim territories ascended from the eastern side of the Malay promontory and Borneo. At this
period, the Brunei sultanate was growing its impact to the Philippines and Palawan isn't a long way from Brunei. The Sulu
sultanate likewise reinforced Islam among the Molbog”
