Abstract

Parents of children with cancer face various problems, including emotional, spiritual, and practical challenges that often require them to develop resilient coping behaviours. This article examines how the internalization of tadabbur fiṭra affects and helps parents' coping strategies at YKAKI (Yayasan Kasih Anak Kanker Indonesia). Using a qualitative approach, including in-depth interviews and participant observation, this study found that internalizing tadabbur fiṭra helps parents reconnect with their innate trust in God (tawakkal), gratitude (shukr), and acceptance (riḍā), thereby fostering deeper spiritual strength and emotional stability. These findings highlight the transformative potential of integrating spiritual practices into psychosocial interventions for parents in similar contexts. Coping behaviours based on internalizing tadabbur fiṭra can enhance parents' well-being and their capacity to support their children during health crises.Contribution: This study contributes to the intersection of spirituality, health psychology, and family resilience, offering practical implications for spirituality-based healthcare programs.

Abstract

Nagari Paninggahan is well known for preserving Minangkabau traditions that integrate Islamic teachings, customary law, and sustainable natural resource management. This study examines how Sufi values are embedded in local customs and their role in environmental conservation. Employing a qualitative ethnographic approach, data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving community leaders, village officials, and local residents. The findings reveal that traditions such as Lubuk Larangan and Balimau promote ecological ethics by regarding forests, rivers, fisheries, and agricultural ecosystems as sacred trusts (amanah) entrusted by God. This spiritual perspective encourages environmental responsibility, limits resource exploitation, and reinforces sustainable practices. The study concludes that the integration of Sufi spirituality and Minangkabau customary traditions contributes significantly to ecological sustainability while preserving local cultural identity and strengthening community-based environmental stewardship. Contribution: This study provides insight into Sufism's role in fostering environmental awareness, promoting harmony between humans and nature, and maintaining cultural identity.

Abstract

Existential anxiety has emerged as a growing concern in contemporary digital society, yet its spiritual dimension remains insufficiently explored. This study examines manifestations of existential anxiety and spiritual coping through the philosophical framework of Buya Hamka's Tasawuf Modern. Using a qualitative interpretive approach, it integrates digital content analysis of publicly accessible narratives from TikTok, X, Instagram, and Threads with philosophical textual analysis of Tasawuf Modern. The findings reveal three major manifestations of existential anxiety: loss of meaning in life, digital isolation, and uncertainty about the future, alongside four forms of spiritual coping: gratitude (shukr), contentment (qanā’ah), trust in God (tawakkal), and remembrance of God (dhikr). These findings highlight the relevance of Hamka's modern Sufism (Tasawuf Modern) as a philosophical framework for understanding spiritually grounded coping with existential anxiety in the digital era. Contribution: This article contributes to the growing scholarship on existential anxiety by integrating empirical digital narratives with Buya Hamka's Tasawuf Modern. Rather than treating Hamka's thought as an empirically tested intervention, the study positions Tasawuf Modern as an interpretive philosophical framework for understanding contemporary forms of spiritual coping in digital society.

Abstract

Despite the rapid expansion of digital religious platforms, little is known about how Indonesian Sufi orders have adapted their spiritual practices to cyberspace. This study examines the development of Cyber-Sufism in Indonesia by identifying the typology of digital practices among Sufi orders. Using virtual ethnography and qualitative content analysis, it analyzes the official websites and digital platforms of nine Indonesian Sufi orders selected through purposive sampling. The findings identify two major types of Cyber-Sufism. The informative type, represented by the Qadiriyya wa Naqshbandiyya, Shadhiliyya, Tijaniyya, Syattariyya, Idrisiyya, Sammaniyya, and Rifa'iyya orders, primarily employs digital media for one-way dissemination of Sufi teachings, literature, organizational information, and institutional activities. Meanwhile, the interactive type, represented by the Naqshbandi Haqqani order, enables reciprocal spiritual engagement through online bayʿah, dhikr, ṣuḥbah, spiritual consultation, and virtual religious gatherings. The study concludes that the Naqshbandi Haqqani order exemplifies the most comprehensive model of interactive Cyber-Sufism through its digital zāwiya, which facilitates continuous spiritual learning, guidance, and religious engagement in the digital sphere. Contribution: This study contributes to understanding the transformation of Sufi authority, religious learning, and spiritual interaction in the digital age, while offering a conceptual framework for mapping contemporary digital Sufism in Indonesia.

Abstract

Absence of God (al-ghiyāb al-ilāhiyya) in Western cosmology has fostered a mechanistic understanding of the universe as operating independently. In contrast, Islamic cosmology, particularly in the Sufi tradition, emphasizes the continuous and holistic presence of God (al-ḥaḍrah al-ilāhiyya). This study explores the cosmological thought of Shaykh ‘Abd al-Qādir al-Jīlānī (470/1077–561/1165), founder of the Qādiriyya Ṣūfī order. Employing a qualitative library research approach, the study analyzes al-Jīlānī’s Sirr al-Asrār (The Secret of Secrets) alongside other relevant works using an Islamic cosmic levels-cycles framework and expert triangulation of Sufi thought. The findings reveal that al-Jīlānī’s divine cosmology presents an integrated vision linking four divine presences (al-ḥaḍarāt al-ilāhiyya al-arba‘ah): lāhūt (Godhead), jabarūt (Divine Power), malakūt (Spiritual Sovereignty), and nāsūt (Humanity). These four levels are systematically correlated with eight cosmological elements, including the apostles, cosmos, spiritual centers, heavens, spirits, knowledge, existential levels, and human intellect. Al-Jīlānī’s holistic model offers an integrative alternative to mechanistic cosmology and reinforces the spiritual unity of God, humanity, and the universe. Contribution: The findings in this study contribute to reinforcing the concept of integralism in cosmic spirituality, wisdom of cosmology, sacred cosmology, spiritual-holistic cosmology, and mechanistic cosmology.
