Darussalamah Al-Mubarok Islamic Boarding School Strategy Cianjur West Java In Preventing Radicalism Through Asatiyyah Islamic Religious Education

Abstract

Wasatiyyah Islamic Religious Education remains an important issue today, especially since
social conditions are faced with the challenges of increasingly open radicalism movements.
Wasatiyyah Islamic Religious Education can be used as an anti-radicalism movement. This
thesis analyzes the problem of wasatiyyah Islamic religious education at the Darussalamah
Al-Mubarok Islamic Boarding School, Cianjur, West Java. There are three questions posed:
First, what are the symptoms of Islamic radicalism in Islamic boarding schools? Second,
how to prevent Islamic radicalism in Islamic boarding schools? How can the concept of
wasatiyyah Islamic education be used as a solution to prevent radical Islamic education? In
order to answer the above problems, qualitative data collection was carried out through
observation, interviews, and documentation at the Darussalamah Al-Mubarok Islamic
Boarding School, Cianjur, West Java.
There were 10 informants interviewed by the researcher. The results of the study show that:
First, in concept and practice the symptoms of radicalism are characterized by an
understanding of shariah which is the main doctrine in radical Islamic organizations such
as: shariah understanding of the Leadership System ( Daulah/Khilafah ), Application of
Islamic Law ( Tahkim al-Syariah ), War ( Jihad ), Mahdhah Worship, and Loyalty to
Muslims and Deliverance from Kafirs ( Al-Wala' wa Al-Bara' ). Second, after experiencing
changes in Islamic boarding schools to prevent with wasatiyyah Islamic education. Third,
practically wasatiyyah Islamic education has succeeded in changing the understanding and
actions of pesantren elements (clerics, ustadz, santri, and other administrators). Due to this
socio-religious change, Darussalamah Al-Mubarok Islamic Boarding School hopes: to re-
adapt to the wasatiyyah Islamic education environment or adapt the community environment
to the needs of the pesantren; to position the aim of the pesantren as a regulator of
community relations with other diverse social systems; and to maintain the identity of the
pesantren as a wasatiyyah Islamic institution.
