<![CDATA[Study on Indonesian Sufi orders has focused on spirituality, politics, and religious revival, but their role in social welfare is scattered across isolated studies. This article explores how these orders act as welfare providers and transform spiritual ethics into social services. Using PRISMA 2020 guidelines, the review searched databases like Scopus, DOAJ, Garuda, SINTA, and Google Scholar for peer-reviewed articles in English and Indonesian from 2013 to 2024. After removing duplicates, screening titles and abstracts, assessing full texts, and evaluating quality, 18 articles were selected and analyzed through thematic coding and cross-case comparison. Most studies focus on TQN/Inabah and Idrisiyya, with fewer on other Qādiriyya–Naqshbandiyya, Naqshbandiyya, Shādhiliyya, Hizib Nahdlatul Wathan, and hybrid Sufi communities. The studies reveal three main, interconnected welfare mechanisms: care and human development, redistributive and economic support, and community resilience and inclusion. The findings indicate that spiritual-ethical commitments are socially impactful when expressed through relational authority, trust within congregations, organizational routines, and institutional structures. Contribution: This review conceptualises ṭarīqa-based welfare as a socio-spiritual configuration linking spiritual-ethical foundations, relational infrastructure, institutional translation, and multidimensional welfare outcomes, thereby extending the interface between Sufi studies and Islamic social work.]]>
