<![CDATA[This research focuses on Taufik Ismail's poem entitled "Bulan Apa Betul, Kau Sulit Dilihat ". The method used is literature search and the approach used is hermeneutics to interpret the meaning of the texts contained in the poem. The poem explains Taufik Ismail's views on the debate regarding the determination of the beginning of Islamic months in Indonesia. In conveying his views, Taufik uses a dialogue model between a 13-year-old child and the moon. The results of the research through the interpretation of the text in the poem show that there is a Muhammadiyah Falak Science reasoning in Taufik Ismail's view regarding the determination of the beginning of the Islamic month in this poem. This can be seen from some of the characteristics of Muhammadiyah Falak Science, namely the belief in the regularity of the circulation of the sun and moon, where with this regularity one can predict the position of the sun and moon in the future by means of mathematical calculations with the criterion of Wujudul Hilal. Taufik is also of the view that determining the beginning of an Islamic month is a worldly affair where a person based on religion may decide in his own way.]]>
