Abstract

This study examines the relationship between fundamentalist theology and socio-religious dynamics through a study of the Islamic Defenders Front (FPI) movement in Padang City. Based on the understanding that theology is not only normative but also practical, this study explores how fundamentalist constructions are manifested in the public sphere. The method used is a qualitative approach with sociological-philosophical analysis. examining the relationship between religious texts, ideological interpretations, and local contexts. The research findings demonstrate that fundamentalism within the FPI movement is not merely an attempt to purify teachings, but also a response to social change, identity tensions, and the need for moral authority. In this context, theology functions as both symbolic legitimacy and an instrument of social mobilization, shaping the relationship between religion and the public sphere. Philosophically, fundamentalism is understood as a dynamic construct born from the dialectic between theological ideals and historical reality. Therefore, this study emphasizes the importance of a reflective and contextual approach in understanding the phenomenon of religious movements in society.
