Abstract

This study explores the ambiguity of religious and political communication in Indonesia, particularly in the context of increasing drug trafficking, with a focus on Deli Serdang. Employing a qualitative case study approach, the research involved in-depth interviews with religious leaders, community members, and local officials, combined with field observations and document analysis. These methods were conducted in urban and semi-urban areas affected by drug-related issues. The study reveals how Islamic values—such as honesty and compassion—are often manipulated by public figures, including certain religious leaders, to mask or legitimize criminal activity. This instrumentalization of religious symbolism highlights a disconnect between piety and ethical behavior, contributing to a broader moral crisis. Public trust erodes when religious rhetoric is not matched by integrity, weakening community resilience and the effectiveness of anti-drug initiatives. To address this, the paper proposes a transformative Islamic communication model that emphasizes ethical consistency, contextual relevance, and participatory engagement. It also calls for a redefinition of the role of religious leaders—not merely as moral spokespersons but as active agents of social reform. This study contributes to global discussions on religion and public ethics, drawing parallels with cases of symbolic manipulation in other Muslim-majority societies.

Abstract

This study explores the collaborative communication between the National Narcotics Board (BNN), correctional institutions, and Islamic organizations in the rehabilitation of narcotics inmates in North Sumatra. It aims to examine how inter-institutional communication systems function in the design and implementation of spiritually grounded rehabilitation programs. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were gathered through in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis involving actors from BNN, prisons, and Islamic organizations such as Muhammadiyah, Al Washliyah, and Nahdlatul Ulama. The findings reveal that communication practices remain fragmented, relying heavily on informal relationships rather than institutionalized coordination. Nevertheless, Islamic da'wah plays a transformative role in building inmates’ moral awareness, offering empathy-based communication that complements medical and legal interventions. The study concludes that integrating religious values into formal rehabilitation systems requires strategic, systemic communication reform and recognition of Islamic organizations as equal partners.
