Abstract

This article examines the role of Sufistic values in shaping models of political leadership through a socio-political analysis of Syech Mustofa Husein Nasution, a prominent Mandailing ulama whose influence extends from spiritual domains to political and social arenas in North Sumatra. While studies on Islamic leadership in Indonesia have predominantly focused on institutional politics, party dynamics, and electoral behavior, relatively few have explored how Sufistic ethics operate as a source of political legitimacy and developmental paradigms. Addressing this gap, the study elucidates how Syech Mustofa Husein Nasution synthesized spirituality, ethics, education, and communal engagement to produce a model of political leadership rooted in tawhid, amanah, shura, and wasatiyyah. Methodologically, this work adopts a qualitative descriptive approach, relying on primary documents, historical accounts, interviews, and pesantren-based observations. The findings demonstrate that Sufistic values not only functioned as moral resources but also as socio-political capital enabling community mobilization, conflict mediation, cadre formation, and institutional activism. These insights reveal that Sufism in the Indonesian context is neither apolitical nor purely devotional, but can serve as an ethical-political framework for social development. The study contributes to broader discussions on Islamic political thought by highlighting how spiritual authority intersects with governance and public leadership, offering implications for contemporary Islamic leadership, community-based development, and the revitalization of ethical politics in Muslim societies.

Abstract

Forests have an important role in maintaining ecological balance, the sustainability of natural resources, and the social life of local communities. However, various pressures such as land conversion, exploitation of natural resources, and socio-economic changes have threatened the sustainability of forest areas in various regions of Indonesia, including Mandailing Natal Regency, North Sumatra. This research aims to analyze the role of local wisdom in forest conservation through an ecological anthropological perspective that emphasizes the reciprocal relationship between humans and the environment. The research uses a qualitative approach with ethnographic methods through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, and documentation studies. The informants consist of traditional leaders, community leaders, forest managers, and communities living around forest areas. The data analysis was carried out thematically with the help of ATLAS.ti software. The results of the study show that the local wisdom of the Mandailing community functions as a social and cultural mechanism in regulating forest utilization, maintaining ecosystem balance, and forming collective awareness of the importance of environmental conservation. Indigenous values, prohibitions on the use of certain areas, and community-based natural resource management practices contribute to forest sustainability. This research confirms that the integration of local wisdom into conservation policies can strengthen sustainable and participatory environmental governance.
