Abstract

In the digital era, Sufism has undergone a transformation in both its dissemination and organization. Once grounded in local communities, Sufism now leverages digital media to reach a global audience, expanding its spiritual network beyond geographical boundaries. This article addresses the primary issues of how digitalization affects the dissemination of Sufi teachings, the formation of transnational communities, and challenges related to authenticity and privacy. The research employs a literature review method, analyzing scholarly publications on Sufism, digital religion, and online communication from academic sources such as Taylor & Francis, JSTOR, MDPI, and DOAJ. This approach enables a comprehensive analysis of three aspects: the spread of Sufi ideas, digital organizational models, and the role of media in strengthening community networks. The findings reveal that digital media facilitates Sufi ideological campaigns, creates technology-based organizational structures, and strengthens community bonds. However, mediatization also presents challenges in preserving the authenticity of teachings and protecting follower privacy. The article concludes that digital media offers significant opportunities for the global development of Sufism but requires careful efforts to maintain the essential values of Sufi spirituality.Abstrak: Dalam era digital, Sufisme mengalami transformasi dalam penyebaran dan pengorganisasiannya. Tradisi yang sebelumnya terikat pada komunitas lokal kini menggunakan media digital untuk menjangkau audiens global, memperluas jaringan spiritual tanpa keterbatasan geografis. Masalah utama yang diangkat dalam artikel ini adalah bagaimana digitalisasi memengaruhi penyebaran ajaran Sufi, pembentukan komunitas lintas negara, serta tantangan autentisitas dan privasi. Metode yang digunakan adalah studi literatur dengan menganalisis publikasi ilmiah terkait Sufisme, agama digital, dan komunikasi online dari sumber-sumber akademik seperti Taylor & Francis, JSTOR, MDPI, dan DOAJ. Pendekatan ini memungkinkan analisis komprehensif tentang tiga aspek: penyebaran ide Sufi, model organisasi digital, dan peran media dalam memperkuat jaringan komunitas. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa media digital memfasilitasi kampanye ide Sufi, menciptakan struktur organisasi berbasis teknologi, serta mempererat ikatan komunitas. Namun, mediatisasi juga memunculkan tantangan dalam menjaga keaslian ajaran dan melindungi privasi pengikut. Artikel ini menyimpulkan bahwa media digital menawarkan peluang besar bagi perkembangan Sufisme secara global, namun menuntut upaya hati-hati dalam mempertahankan nilai-nilai esensial spiritualitas Sufi.

Abstract

This article examines the concept of spiritual resilience in Q.S. Al-Insyirah through Imam al-Alusi’s Ruh al-Ma’ani and places it in dialogue with the resilience theory of Karen Reivich and Andrew Shatté. The study responds to the need for a more conceptually grounded reading of Q.S. Al-Insyirah that moves beyond motivational interpretations and considers its theological, psychological, and spiritual dimensions. Using a qualitative library research design, this study analyzes Al-Alusi’s interpretation of Q.S. Al-Insyirah through content analysis and the tahlili method, a verse-by-verse exegetical approach. The findings suggest that several key expressions in the chapter, including sharh al-sadr (expansion of the chest), the removal of burdens, ma‘a al-‘usr yusrā (with hardship comes ease), continued striving, and hope in God, may be read as interrelated elements of spiritual resilience. These elements resonate with selected dimensions of Reivich and Shatté’s theory, particularly emotional regulation, realistic optimism, self-efficacy, and reaching out. However, the relationship between the Qur’anic text and modern resilience theory should not be understood as exact equivalence, but as a dialogical and interpretive encounter. This study argues that Q.S. Al-Insyirah, as interpreted by Al-Alusi, offers a theological-transformative understanding of resilience, in which hardship becomes a site of inner expansion, divine reassurance, sustained effort, and spiritual reorientation. The article contributes to Qur’anic studies by showing how classical exegesis may enrich contemporary discussions of resilience without reducing Qur’anic meaning to modern psychological categories.

Abstract

This study examines the story of Ashabul Kahfi in Qur’an, Surah al-Kahfi 18:9–26, through Fazlur Rahman’s Double Movement approach in order to formulate an ethical reading of ‘uzlah (withdrawal or seclusion) in relation to the contemporary Indonesian hashtag #KaburAjaDulu (roughly, “just leave first”). The study employs a qualitative library research design with a conceptual-hermeneutic orientation. Its primary sources include the Qur’anic text, classical and contemporary Qur’anic commentaries, particularly Tafsir Ibn Kathir and M. Quraish Shihab’s Tafsir al-Misbah, and scholarly works on Rahman’s hermeneutics. Secondary sources consist of academic discussions on #KaburAjaDulu as a digital discourse. The analysis proceeds in two stages: first, by examining the socio-historical context of the Qur’anic narrative, and second, by identifying its ideal-moral principles and considering their relevance to contemporary social unease. The study finds that ‘uzlah in the story of Ashabul Kahfi is ethically meaningful when it emerges as a last resort under severe pressure, after moral deliberation, and for the preservation of faith and integrity. In contrast, #KaburAjaDulu should be read as a fluid digital discourse that may express frustration, critique, satire, or migration aspirations. The article argues that the story of Ashabul Kahfi offers ethical criteria for assessing discourses of “leaving,” without turning the hashtag into a direct equivalent of Qur’anic ‘uzlah.
