Abstract

The condition of the Muslim world during the emergence of the Sanusiyah movement was marked by political crises, colonialism, and intellectual stagnation, which encouraged the rise of various reform movements. In this context, the Sanusiyah emerged as a Sufi-based movement that integrated spiritual, social, and educational dimensions. This study aims to identify the typology of Sanusiyah thought, analyze its methods of da‘wah, and examine its educational system and socio-political role as a representation of dynamic Islamic traditionalism. The method used is a qualitative approach through library research, employing content analysis of primary and secondary sources, as well as historical and conceptual approaches. The results show that the Sanusiyah represents a form of traditionalism that is not static but adaptive to social change. The movement integrates jurisprudence (fiqh) and Sufism, develops persuasive da‘wah based on exemplary conduct, and establishes an educational system through a network of zawiyahs that function as centers for spiritual and social development. Furthermore, the Sanusiyah played an active role in resisting colonialism. In conclusion, the Sanusiyah represents dynamic Islamic traditionalism that integrates turāth with contextual responses, making it relevant as a model of moderate, adaptive, and transformative religiosity
