The magnitude or strength of the influence of Islam in the Majapahit
region, even to the center of the kingdom, meant that those who did not agree
or did not want to give up the beliefs they had adhered to all this time felt
pressured. They then stepped aside and looked for a place that was considered
safe and free. Likewise with Begawan Selapawening and his followers. Begawan
Selapawening and his followers left the Majapahit Kingdom until they arrived on
the south coast of Yogyakarta.

Begawan Selapawening was followed by his followers. Arriving in the
South Coast area of Yogyakarta, they set up a hermitage. Apart from being a place for them
to live, the hermitage is also a place to disseminate the teachings that they
have always adhered to. Padepokan was established in Pemancingan Village. It is
said to be called the Fishing Village, according to the story, because the
village is often used as a place for fishing skill competitions between Sheikh
Maulana Maghribi and Begawan Selapawening.
According to the story, once upon a time, Sheikh Maulana Maghribi came
to the Begawan Selapawening hermitage with the aim of spreading the teachings
of Islam. In order to avoid obstacles in his efforts to spread the teachings of
Islam, Sheikh Maulana Maghribi met with the ruler of the region, namely Begawan
Selapawening.
At that time, Begawan Selapawening and his followers converted to
Buddhism. Syekh Maulana Maghribi frankly hoped that Begawan Selapawening would
accept Islamic teachings and give his subordinates the freedom to embrace
Islam.
Begawan Selapawening did not approve of Sheikh Maulana Maghribi's
wishes. However, if Sheikh Maulana Maghribi can match his supernatural powers,
then Begawan Selapawening will give his hermitage to Sheikh Maulana Maghribi to
be used as a place to spread Islam. The first magic contest was with delicacy.
Begawan Selapawening hid, it turned out that Sheikh Maulana Maghreb managed to
find his hiding place. But when Sheikh Maulana Maghribi went into hiding,
Begawan Selapawening failed to find him.
The second game is fishing. Begawan Selapawening had the first
opportunity to fish. With his fishing skills and magic, Begawan Selapawening
was able to catch a very large fish. When on the occasion Sheikh Maulana
Maghribi showed his magic and fishing skills, it turned out that he managed to
catch a large, cooked fish, ready to eat. The awe of those who witnessed the
event was reflected in everyone, including Begawan Selapawening. In this way,
Begawan Selapawening realized that Sheikh Maulana Maghribi's supernatural
powers exceeded his own. Begawan Selapawening then surrendered, and the power
of the hermitage was handed over to Sheikh Maulana Maghribi.
The former Begawan Selapawening hermitage was turned into an Islamic
boarding school by Sheikh Maulana Maghribi. This place is to accommodate those
who wish to deepen the teachings of the Islamic religion. Apart from deepening
Islamic teachings, the Islamic boarding school is also used as a place to
deepen religious knowledge.

The hook that was previously used for fishing when competing with
Begawan Selapawening, was stuck by Sheikh Maulana Magribi in the back garden of
the hermitage which has now become a boarding school. It turns out that the
hook shank, which was made from bamboo blades, has now grown into a lush bamboo
clump. This bamboo is called sentana bamboo or fishing bamboo. According to
belief, sentana bamboo is sacred, it was proven that during the 2nd class it could
repel Dutch troops. With the existence of an Islamic boarding school on Sentana
Hill, Islam can develop rapidly in the area around the Islamic boarding school.
This is a folk tale from Yogyakarta entitled Begawan Salapening.
Hopefully this folk tale is useful for readers.
