This thesis is an attempt to study the role of Ahmad Surkati in al-Irshad movement in Java, and its implications for the Arab community in Indonesia. Surkati was a Sudanese Muslim scholar who, in 1911, came to Indonesia as one of the Islamic teachers invited by Jamiat Khair, an Arab organization, which was established in Jakarta in 1905. The fact that the Hadrami Arabs were divided into two groups, the sayyids who enjoyed elevated position and the non-sayyids, urged Ahmad Surkati to propagate the idea of equality among Muslims. Thus, in 1913 Surkati sponsored the foundation of an Arab organization of Islamic reform called al-Irshad which has been especially influential by means of its educational system. The importance of the Irshadi movement lies in its effecting a social change in the Arab community and making a significant contribution to the birth and development of Islamic reform in Indonesia. / Cette thèse fait l'objet d'une étude du rôle de Ahmad Surkati de le mouvement al-Irshad à Java, ainsi que ses repercussions dans la communauté arabe d 'Indonesie. Surkati, fut un savant Musulman soudanais qui en 1911 vint en Indonesie en tant que professeur invité par l'organisation arab, la Jamiat Khair. Cette dernière fut établie à Jakarta en 1905. Le fait que les arabes Hadrami furent divisés en deux groupes, les sayyids (groupes privilegiés) et les non-sayyids, amena Ahmad Surkati à propager la notion d'égalité parmi les musulmans. Ainsi, en 1913 Surkati parréna l'organisation arabe de la réforme Islamique entitulée al-Irshad. Cette dernière eut une grande influence grâce à son systême éducationel. Le mouvement Irshadi fut important à cause de ses effets au niveau social parmi la communauté arabe, ainsi que de sa contribution à la naissance et au dépeloppement des réformes Islamiques en Indonesie.
