Abstract

This study tries to describe the prophetic spirit in the novel Layali Turk-istan by Najib Kailani with the tools of literary sociology. The main focus of this research is to dismantle the dehumanization process that occurred to the Turkistan people due to the Chinese and Russian communist invaders. The dehumaniza- tion process creates a prophetic spirit in the form of humanization, liberation, and transcendence for the Turkistan people. This study used the descriptive qualitative method. This method is used because the research data source is in the form of textual data consisting of dialogues and statements in material objects. The pol- icy of the Chinese and Russian occupiers on cross-marriage between Turkistan women and Chinese soldiers and traders created social problems for the Turk-istan people. Therefore, this study uses the tools of the sociology of literature to uncover the prophetic spirit in the novel Turkistan Layali. The results of this study indicate that first, the value of humanization is realized by the figure of Naghmat- ullail by marrying the Chinese commander in Islamic law so that Nagmah quickly instills the values of humanism. Second, King Komul’s decision to oppose and fight China’s communist policies is a form of liberation spirit for the people of Turkistan. Third, divine awareness is deeply embedded in the people of Turkistan when King Komul gives an understanding of the nature of heaven that transcends human boundaries.
