Abstract

This article aims to explain and reveal the bourgeois-proletarian class conflict and its resolution in the novel entitled Chamāmah Salām by Najīb Al-Kilānīy through Marxist literary criticism. The bourgeois class is represented by the cotton field owner, Hajj Abdul Wadud Ridhwan, while the proletariat are represented by the field workers. Confrontations arise when the cotton fields fail and workers are not paid while anyone who demands wages is arrested and intimidated. A labor demonstration was carried out and even assisted by Jalaluddin, a student of the Sharia Faculty of Al-Azhar University, but it proved to be a failure because the bourgeoisie used the village head, village security unit, village security unit, village thugs, and the police to secure their business. The bourgeoisie is represented as having full power, it has succeeded in establishing the infrastructure and influencing the superstructure of society. In the midst of this difficult situation, Najīb Al-Kilānīy was able to inset a class resistance strategy through Islamic ideology in the form of the ta’adduduz-zaujāt (polygamy) concept. This resistance was shown through the generosity of one of the beautiful, charming, elegant, and intelligent workers named Sakīnah to be willing to marry Hajj Abdul Wadud with the mission of influencing and persuading him to be fair to the workers.
