The modern western perspective initiated by the renaissance and the enlightenment century successfully couped the reality of God. This was carried out by some western intellectuals and thinkers, which ultimately gave obscurity to the human concept. The obscurity of this concept then has implications for the meaning of the progress of human civilization. This further gives serious problems to almost the entire social order.  Husain's struggle as the eternal history of humanity interpreted through Hermeneutics Scheleiermacher provides another perspective on human concepts and the progress of civilization. The monotheistic values they contain glance at the sides of spirituality as a measure of the progress of civilization. From it the definition of civilization gained new space and paved the way for human potentials that were inherently the cornerstone of the progress of civilization. This paper tries to uncover the values of Imam Husain's struggle in Karbala which is interpreted through Schleiermacher's psychological and grammatical interpretation and contextualizes it with the concept of Coomaraswamy spiritual civilization, as a foundation for the meaning of civilization using historical and descriptive analysis methods. So that the paradigm of the progress of civilization gets an alternative new perspective, and spirituality can be used as a measure of the progress of civilization.

One of the proliferating centers of Qadiriyya Naqshbandiyya Sufi Order in Indonesia is Pesantren Suryalaya, Tasikmalaya, West Java. Much of the attention and interest is that the Tariqa Qadiriyya Naqshbandiyya (TQN) has generated outside Indonesia can be attributed not only to its formal institutional development but also to its spiritual growth. The latter phenomenon is that many visits by foreigners to the Pesantren out of curiosity and amazement for its teachings, as well as out of academic interest in its various activities. Of particular interest to Western observers is Pondok Inabah (the Healing Dorm) and its programs, due to its unique approach to rehabilitating drug-addicted youth. This research paper attempts to update the role of Pesantren Suryalaya to help and rehabilitate young generation from drug addiction. There are two main findings that will be discussed in the paper. The first is focusing on the initiator and the grand teacher of TQN, namely Abah Anom (KH Shohibul Wafa Tajul Arifin, d. 2011), who had founded Pondok Inabah and the methods of healing. The second will show that the psychological view, related to the TQN’s syllabus practiced in Suryalaya (Indonesia) and Kedah (Malaysia), has a significant role to rehabilitate the victims by using the method of interpersonal communication.

The remembrance (dzikr) is believed to have a therapeutic effect on human’s psychiatric condition. In the Islamic tradition, Sufi scholars have long used it as the therapy for increasing their students’ quality of the soul. The immaterial part of human being is believed to be the source of human behaviours, which means their quality of behaviour depends on that of their spiritual condition. In the perspective of modern psychology, the talk of human’s behavioural quality is closely related to the concept of emotional intelligence. It can be assumed therefore that the dzikr therapy can have positive affects on the emotional intelligence. This study seeks to prove the assumption. Located in Palangka Raya, Central Kalimantan, it is conducted to the students of Pondok Dzikir Miftahus Sudur and takes the Tarekat Qadiriyah Naqsyabandiyah’s ways of dzikr as the method of theraphy. The theraphy is given intensively for four weeks and the result proves that it can significantly increase their emotional intelligence.

So that it can be an effective step to prevent transmission. This research is qualitative research. This type of research is library research.

This study found similarities between the social distancing perspective of the World Health Organization (WHO) and the social distancing perspective of Al-Ghazali's Sufism. This similarity is at least in two ways, first both emphasize the importance of maintaining distance from others, the second in the realm of strategy. The basic difference is in the realm of goals. The existence of this equation causes social distancing in the new normal era, the perspective of Sufism is important to offer and deserve to be published. and other things that underlie are two things, first, so that social distancing is not only maintaining immunity but also maintaining faith. The two social interaction strategies originating from religious doctrine will be easier to comply with given the ineffectiveness of government advice in implementing social distancing.
