Abstract

This study aims to analyse the concept of ghuluw from the perspective of hadith, including its meaning, forms, consequences and impact on religious life, as well as its relevance to the phenomenon of excessive reverence for religious figures today. This study uses a qualitative method with a library research approach, namely by examining primary sources in the form of hadith books, tafsir, and related scientific literature. The results show that ghuluw etymologically means excessive or beyond the limits in religion, while terminologically it is understood as disproportionate actions in understanding, practising, or glorifying something beyond the provisions of Sharia law. Forms of ghuluw can include the cult of religious figures, group fanaticism, and distortion of the meaning of religious teachings. The consequences of ghuluw include the emergence of doctrinal deviations, socio-religious conflicts, and a weakening of objectivity in religion. In the current context, the understanding of the hadith on ghuluw has significant relevance to the phenomenon of excessive reverence for religious figures, which often has the potential to lead to fanaticism and blind imitation. Therefore, a proportional understanding of the hadiths about ghuluw needs to be instilled to maintain the purity of Islamic teachings and balance in religion.
