Sunan Kudus (born Syekh Jafar As-Shodiq bin Utsman Al-Hamadani; 1500-1550), founder of Kudus, is one of the Wali Sanga (lit. "Nine Saints"), of Java, Indonesia to whom the propagation of Islam amongst the Javanese is attributed.
He is said to be at the origin of the wayang golek (traditional Sundanese puppet arts from West Java),[1] and to have founded the mosque (masjid) at Kudus - using the doors from the palace of Majapahit.
