Abstract

This study was motivated by the mindset of the people of Bojong, who do not sufficiently appreciate the struggles of the ulama who carried out the process of Islamization in the Bojong region. Although their role was immense, the ulama did not merely teach religious doctrine but also imparted lessons on morality, character, and ethics that are useful in daily life. Thus, pilgrimages and tracing the footsteps of the ulama’s struggles serve as a means to emulate and draw lessons from their struggles, which can strengthen the spiritual intelligence of the cadres of the Ansor Youth Movement in Bojong. This study aims to examine the implementation of pilgrimages and the tracing of the ulama’s struggles as a means to enhance spiritual intelligence and the forms of spiritual intelligence among GP Ansor cadres in Bojong Subdistrict. This study is a field study employing a religious phenomenological approach, specifically examining the phenomenon of retracing the footsteps of the ulama in Bojong. Data were collected through interviews, observations, documentation, and sources such as books, academic articles, and other materials. The results of this study indicate that pilgrimages and the tracing of the ulama’s struggle are organized by the GP Ansor Bojong on every Islamic holiday, attended by all GP Ansor Bojong members. Meanwhile, the form of spiritual intelligence resulting from these pilgrimages and the tracing of the struggle of Bojong’s ulama is that GP Ansor Bojong members can emulate and follow the spirit of past ulama in spreading Islam in Bojong, accompanied by spiritual strengthening such as patience, trust, honesty, perseverance, as well as possessing noble character and engaging in specific devotional practices (dhikr) to nurture the inner spiritual dimension (ruhaniah).

Abstract

Abstract The phenomena of intolerance, radicalism, and moral degradation accompanying the tide of modernization underscore the importance of strengthening religious moderation in multicultural societies such as Indonesia. One relevant approach is social Sufism, which emphasizes a balance between individual piety and social responsibility, so that spirituality does not stop at the inner aspect but is manifested in the practice of communal life. This article examines Amin Syukur's thoughts on religious moderation through the perspective of social Sufism, highlighting Qur'anic values such as compassion, justice, tolerance, and ukhuwah (brotherhood) as the foundation of social harmony. This study uses a literature review method through an analysis of Amin Syukur's works and literature related to Sufism and religious moderation. The results of the study show that social Sufism places collective spirituality and Sufi leadership as effective models of social transformation in dealing with diversity. Values such as control of desires, awareness of Allah's supervision, and balance between spiritual and social aspects can shape public ethics. The concept of insan kāmil is also an ideal in social Sufism, as it describes a perfect human being who harmonizes spiritual, moral, and social dimensions for the common good. Other findings confirm that religious moderation as a form of transformative Sufism encourages pluralistic, inclusive, and open attitudes that are in line with the values of Pancasila and strengthen national social cohesion. Thus, the integration of spiritual values, social values, Sufi leadership, and the orientation of insan kāmil in Islam can be a constructive solution for building a peaceful, just, and civilized society amid plurality. Keywords: Social Sufism, Religious Moderation, Amin Syukur, Insan Kāmil.

Abstract

This article examines the integration of Sufi spiritual practices into digital detoxification strategies as an alternative approach to improving mental health in the technological era. The increasing intensity of digital engagement, information overload, and constant online connectivity have contributed to psychological problems such as stress, anxiety, emotional exhaustion, and loss of meaning in life. In response to these challenges, Sufism offers a spiritual approach centered on self-awareness, inner purification, and emotional balance. This study employed a qualitative conceptual approach with library research methods. Data were collected from classical and contemporary literature on Sufism, digital detoxification, psychology, and mental health studies, including relevant journal articles, books, and scientific publications. Data were analyzed through thematic and interpretive analysis to identify the relevance of Sufi spiritual practices to contemporary digital-related mental health issues. The findings suggest that several Sufi practices, including muraqabah (self-awareness before God), muhasabah (self-reflection), and breath-based dhikr (remembrance of God), can contribute to reducing digital dependency, improving emotional formation, strengthening awareness, and restoring existential meaning. This study proposes a conceptual framework for integrating Sufi spirituality into a digital detoxification program by combining spiritual awareness with a psychological well-being approach. This study contributes to the development of an interdisciplinary discourse connecting Sufism, mental health studies, and digital culture, while also offering an alternative spiritual-based model for addressing psychological challenges in the digital age.

Abstract

Abstract Urban ecological degradation increasingly affects not only environmental sustainability but also psychological well-being and spiritual life. Although eco-Sufism has been widely discussed within Islamic environmental ethics, empirical research examining how it is experienced through everyday ecological practice remains limited. This study aims to develop an empirically grounded Eco-Sufism Model by exploring how Muslim eco-enzyme practitioners construct spiritual meaning through ecological practice. A qualitative phenomenological design employing Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) was used. Data were collected from ten Muslim eco-enzyme practitioners in the Siring Agung Subdistrict of Palembang through semi-structured interviews, participant observation, and four-week reflective documentation. The analysis identified three interconnected experiential dimensions. Tajalli al-Māddī represents spiritual awareness emerging through the material transformation of household organic waste; Tajalli al-Zamānī describes spiritual formation through waiting, uncertainty, and trust during the fermentation process; and Tajalli al-Takāmulī reflects an integrated awareness of the relationship between God, humanity, nature, and community. Together, these dimensions constitute an empirically grounded Eco-Sufism Model demonstrating how everyday ecological practice may simultaneously foster spiritual formation, psychosocial resilience, and ecological consciousness. By reconstructing eco-Sufism inductively from participants' lived experiences rather than normative theological discourse, this study contributes to eco-Sufism scholarship, Islamic psychology, and spiritual ecology while offering a conceptual framework for faith-based environmental education and community sustainability initiatives.

Abstract

Human life is inseparable from economic and status issues. Both often force people to do anything just to achieve them. However, without a strong ambition to achieve these goals, humans will not continue to move forward and will only remain where they are now. On the other hand, religion often talks about humans being grateful and accepting their circumstances, where these expressions often become capital for laziness and an excuse to not want to try in life. This study aims to explain that religion does not tell humans to be silent and wait for miracles, but the concept of Qona'ah, Tawakkal and others are principles that humans need to understand which must always accompany human endeavors to avoid falling into worldly luxury. This research was conducted using qualitative research methods through literature studies involving critical analysis of related phenomena, especially in Indonesia. By using qualitative research methods, this study aims to find a new meaning of the concept of Qona'ah from the perspective of Ibn Athallah to provide a breath of fresh air to society about the meaning of ambition that is appropriate to its level. Ultimately, this research found that Ibn Athalillah wisely explained that humans may have ambitions to achieve something, but this should not be the primary goal, as it would hinder gratitude and acceptance of God's will. Accepting fate does not mean abandoning effort altogether. Rather, it is a way to be grateful even if the outcome is not as desired.

Abstract

This article analyses young people's perceptions and participation in practising Cirebon Brai Art using a Sufi psychological approach. The involvement of young people in this study (namely millennials and Gen Z) is to examine the extent to which local wisdom values affect their mental health. The urgency and relevance of this research stem from the fact that millennials' and Gen-Z's interests and attention are largely absorbed by popular art forms that are not deeply rooted in national values. There is also the temptation and addiction to the internet, social media, and online games, which, according to recent findings, have caused mental health problems among young people. Many teenagers, from early adolescence to early adulthood, experience anxiety, depression, and other mental illnesses. This research uses quantitative methods with the research locus at Sanggar Sekar Pusaka Cirebon. The analysis in this study is based on questionnaire and interview results with young respondents involved in Brai art. The findings of this study confirm that the younger generation involved in Cirebon Brai art show positive mental health conditions; their levels of anxiety and depression decrease when they regularly participate in Cirebon Brai art activities. Most young people stated that their spiritual and psychological conditions improved after participating in Brai art. However, the practice of Cirebon Brai art has not received full attention from young people in Cirebon and its surroundings due to a lack of socialisation and seriousness on the part of regional policymakers in West Java.
