As a Malay, it really confused me when the term wahyu is discussed in relation to Keris! Actually only isi and tuah which are relevance to keris belief system.

For some people a particular tuah may be an effective talisman, for other people it may have no effect, or worse, be a negative influence.

Yes! Isi keris here means a sort of a spiritual value or a spiritual power of the keris as per regarded by a person or a group of persons related to that particular keris. While tuah keris means more like a lucky charm again as per regarded by a person or a group of persons related to that particular keris.

Again yes! Wahyu or wahy or wahi in Malay is originated from Arabic word and it is specifically carry a strict meaning in accordance to the Islamic Syriah. Here is the correct meaning of wahyu or wahy or wahi which is generally understand by Malay. In other words the term wahyu or wahy or wahi actually has nothing to do with keris at all.

Hope my explanations helps.
