Silat and religion perhaps but specifically islam? Don’t know. Some people make you believe that Silat was born from islam. Reality is it is much more eclectic than some make you want to believe. There are quite a few who were born out of a mix of Islamic, Christian, Hindu and Animistic aspects.

[@kristopherarvey320]

The reason why I like and wanted to try practicing Silat because of its practices applies through art, psychology, philosophy, tradition and culture that enables you to be spiritually strong and physically fast & efficient. Good video, subscribed :)

[@hariyosuseno537]

Actually this martial arts based on religious structure of Islam.

[@roccosins2916]

@@hariyosuseno537 lol.that art was invented or improvised by native people there.before islam even existed n thus got nothing to with islam. correct your facts. stop putting ur religion into everything.just becoz it is still practised and mostlyby converted muslim and their descendants doesnt mean this art is based on islam etc

[@mr.voidout4739]

I appreciate this Sifu's take on sparring philosophy. Most martial arts sparring is based on the context of: "How good am I against my peers?" While Silat sparring is about exchanging knowledge of the art between practitioners. As someone who puts philosophy first in martial arts, I'm thankful to take this teaching from Sifu Abdur.

Assalamu alaikum Saya dari Sumatra indonesia, Silat Diwariskan secara turun temurun oleh nenek moyang kami, Silat tidak hanya mengajarkan Seni Bela Diri, tapi juga banyak dibekali ( ilmu padi , semakin merunduk semakin berisi ) Pesilat selalu di ingatkan agar Bertaqwa kepada Allah swt , berbakti kepada kedua orang tua , Berjiwa besar , Cinta sesama , ramah tamah , sopan santun , rendah hati , Tidak sombong , tau benar dan tau salah ..

[@ilhamilham6606]

Assalamualikum my name is ilham awalin i.m from indonesia.. Actually silat comes from ( sholat ) the word prayer which means that the movement takes from the prayer movement ( sholat ) ,wudu,and work our daily life sometimes also mimich the movement the animal such as tiger and monkey .... When fighting and islam there are always learning about nature..

silat comes from the land of Pasundan, more famous in the Sunda area and more famous in the province of Banten, pencak silat techniques consist of several styles of silat that use physical or even internal power and are processed by kanuragan by using the advantages that exist in the body in many martial arts techniques. used by the Indonesian military with extraordinary strength and attack and form a defense

Silat Beksi, with so many hand tappings. its used for wedding ceremony. when the groom have their henchmen to beat the bride doors guardian. its fun and beautiful. in war era, indonesian use black arts and magic. most common is rawa rontek. its immune against any weapons even bullets. its magic, and certainly have a pacts with djinns or demons. silat on certain stage/levels also have those 'hibiejibies'.. its not fun anymore.
