Abstract

 Sufism has been considered as teaching that contains tuberculosis (superstition, bid'ah and churafat). Socially, Sufism teaches life as an obstacle to the development and progress of the times so it is not surprising that Al-Ghazali is responsible for the backwardness and decline of Muslims. The accusations and criticisms of Sufism are often unfounded. These accusations and criticisms usually come from groups who do not understand Sufism comprehensively and do not see it from the Sufi perspective itself. As its nature and existence are often misunderstood and belittled. Internet technology, the economy of capitalism, the strengthening of the role of the state in people's lives have shifted the practice of kebatinan teachings. Sufi as a practice of life has never been relevant to today's life, the loss of the modern world has indeed covered all aspects of human life, but it will not stop some efforts to interact in spiritual life. Therefore, the author here is very interested in discussing: how is Sufistic da'wah in the digital era? How can the tarekat be able to use technology as a medium of da'wah? This researcher uses a descriptive approach. The descriptive approach can produce data in the form of a description of words either written or spoken form people and behaviors that can be observed by researchers. According to Candra Malik, today's Sufis do not need to always wear a robe, wear a turban, and hide from the public. Therefore, at this time the Sufis can no longer be detected through the way they dress or the ability to use information technology. Therefore, Sufism actors use social media to preach Sufi teachings of Sufism such as Sufi Humor, tasawufonline.com, and Podcasts belonging to TQN practitioner Pontren Suryalaya.

Abstract

The phenomenon of cryptocurrency adoption among Indonesia's urban communities is on the rise, following rapid digital economic development. However, the involvement of Muslim communities—including Muhammadiyah members—has sparked ethical and Islamic legal debates regarding the legitimacy and safety of cryptocurrencies. Diverse perspectives among religious authorities and the low level of digital sharia literacy underscore the importance of Muhammadiyah’s response and approach to this issue. This study aims to elaborate on Muhammadiyah’s response, legal (fatwa) arguments, and approaches regarding the phenomenon of cryptocurrencies, particularly in urban environments that are vulnerable to speculative investment and lack sharia understanding. The research uses a qualitative descriptive method with literature review, analyzing official fatwas, academic literature, and Muhammadiyah’s religious education practices related to cryptocurrency. It also includes a comparative analysis with other Islamic authorities in Indonesia. The Tarjih and Tajdid Council of Muhammadiyah has issued a fatwa declaring the use of cryptocurrency, as both a means of exchange and an investment instrument, as haram. The main reasons for this decision are its speculative nature (maysir), uncertainty (gharar), extreme volatility, and lack of clear underlying asset. Muhammadiyah believes cryptocurrency does not satisfy sharia economic principles and tends to bring harm to society. Muhammadiyah’s approach emphasizes community-based education, digital da’wah, and the enhancement of sharia financial literacy to protect urban communities from speculative investments and digital fraud risks.
