Abstract

persist regarding the depth and credibility of social media-based da’wa, often perceived as superficial and lacking religious authority. This study investigates the case of Habib Husein Ja’far Al-Hadar, a traditionally trained Hadhrami preacher, who has emerged as a prominent digital da’i through his strategic and effective use of Instagram, TikTok, Twitter, and YouTube. The research aims to explore how algorithmic logic, media constraints, and digital culture shape and potentially enhance the reach and substance of da’wa in contemporary Indonesia. Anchored in digital ethnography and qualitative content analysis, the study draws upon online observations and platform analytics to examine how Habib Ja’far optimizes message delivery across social media, navigating technical limitations to convey inclusive, youth-oriented Islamic messages. Findings reveal that beyond religious qualifications, digital fluency—understanding algorithms, audience behavior, and platform affordances—is essential to successful digital da’wa. Habib Ja’far’s approach demonstrates how algorithmic literacy and creative communication can challenge the dichotomy between traditional and modern religious authority. This research contributes to broader discussions on mediatized religion, digital religious authority, and the transformation of Islamic communication in the algorithmic age.

Abstract

The digital culture has made the internet a significant source of knowledge for millennials. The fast access to information has made them associated with instant culture and bandwagon effect: they behave and adapt to popular trends and demand instant pleasurable activities. In this case, the phenomenon influences how they seek religious advice (fatwa). Pleasure and piety become parts of millennials’ religiosity: they want to look pious yet casual and trendy. This article closely examines a millennial hadrami-descent preacher, Habib Ja‘far. It investigates how he builds his religious authority among millennials and the youth by cultivating his online and fun fatwas. Habib Ja‘far’s YouTube channel is the main data source in this case. Employing qualitative research with netnography method and Slama’s theory on “mediated intimacy”, This study found that a mufti (a man who gives religious advice) must adapt to the changes in how people seek religious advice (fatwa) to gain authority. The more skilled he is at adapting, the more authoritative he will be. In Habib Ja‘far case, his adaptability to youth culture and social media has made him a new religious authority. His da’wa model using social media by collaborating with various speakers from different perspectives can engage a wider audience and make da’wa more entertaining, accepted, and informative toward the fun and easy side of religion without hurting its sacredness.

Abstract

Abstract: The aspect of the beauty of language ('ijaz lughawi) is one of the first miracles that emerged from the Qur'an. This aligns with the audience to whom the Qur'an was revealed around 14 centuries ago: people who are very close to the literary tradition. Interestingly, scholars of the Qur'an, from classical to contemporary, see this as an opportunity for studies and still developing and producing various monumental works. Through this paper, the author tries to trace chronologically how the Al-Qur'an and literature meet to become an approach in interpreting the Al-Qur'an. The research in this paper is carried out through essential matters by looking at how the Qur'an was revealed in Arab society, the interpretation practices carried out by the Prophet and his companions, to the contact of the Qur'an with modern literature. This study uses a socio-historical approach by looking at the macro-cultural context of early Arab society and the process of interpretation of the earlier era carried out by the Prophet, companions and tabi'in. This study argues that the emergence of a model of literary interpretation of the Qur'an is closely related to the traditions and culture of Arab society, which are close to literary traditions. Furthermore, this research contributes to the history of interpretation, especially in tracking the various approaches that appear in the study of the Quran.Abstrak: Aspek keindahan bahasa ('ijaz lughawi) merupakan salah satu keajaiban pertama yang muncul dari al-Qur'an. Hal ini sejalan dengan khalayak yang diwahyukan Al-Qur'an sekitar 14 abad yang lalu: orang-orang yang sangat dekat dengan tradisi sastra. Menariknya, para sarjana Al-Qur'an, dari klasik hingga kontemporer, melihat hal ini sebagai peluang untuk mengkaji dan tetap mengembangkan serta menghasilkan berbagai karya monumental. Melalui tulisan ini, penulis mencoba menelusuri secara kronologis bagaimana Al-Qur'an dan sastra bertemu untuk menjadi sebuah pendekatan dalam menafsirkan Al-Qur'an. Kajian dalam tulisan ini dilakukan melalui hal-hal esensial dengan melihat bagaimana Alquran diturunkan di masyarakat Arab, praktik tafsir yang dilakukan Nabi dan para sahabat, hingga kontak Alquran dengan sastra modern. Kajian ini menggunakan pendekatan sosio-historis dengan melihat konteks makro-budaya masyarakat Arab awal dan proses interpretasi era awal yang dilakukan oleh Nabi, sahabat dan tabi'in. Kajian ini berargumen bahwa munculnya model tafsir sastra al-Qur'an sangat erat kaitannya dengan tradisi dan budaya masyarakat Arab yang dekat dengan tradisi sastra. Lebih jauh lagi, penelitian ini memberikan kontribusi terhadap sejarah tafsir, khususnya dalam menelusuri berbagai pendekatan yang muncul dalam kajian al-Qur'an.
