Abstract
Islam is founded on two fundamental pillars: the Qur'an and the Sunnah. Despite the rapid
advancements in civilization and global scientific progress, superstitions persist across
successive generations. This article aims to analyze Hamka's perspective on khurafat
(superstition) related to the history of the Malay world as presented in the book
"Perbendaharaan Lama" (The Old Treasury). This book is a valuable primary reference as it
investigates specific Malay histories. History distortions can potentially disseminate inaccurate information and even distort facts into myths. A qualitative research approach was employed to conduct this analysis, utilizing content analysis. This study has provided evidence supporting the assertion that Hamka is a scholarly individual with a particular inclination for the field of History, with a specific focus on the Malay world. Nevertheless, many aspects of Malay history have been classified as myths, which may negatively affect religious belief.
