| Summary: | Religious instinct is a human nature. It is an instinct to follow tauhid (oneness of God
in Islam) that was given by Allah SWT when the first man was created. It is as
described in QS Al-A’raf 172. On the other hand, people always deal with the
development and changes in society. Therefore, dakwah (Islamic religious
proselytizing) should be acceptable to everyone, and it must be able to enlighten all
people regardless of their religions.
Nowadays, there are some problems in religion field which are related to
public dissatisfaction towards Islam. Gerakan Jamaah Dakwah Jamaah (GJDJ) in
Muhammadiyah is dakwah movement at grassroots level that attempts to solve the
problems and challenges such as poverty, ignorance, backwardness, health problems,
injustice, and moral degradation.
This research is a descriptive qualitative research. In collecting the data, it
used in-depth interview by interviewing the members of Pimpinan Pusat
Muhammadiyah and some informants from certain religious groups. Data were
analyzed by using interactive analysis. For the validity test, this research used the
triangulation of sources and methods.
Gerakan jamaah (congregation movement) is conducted by following these 4
steps: consolidation, looking for friends (solidarity), completion and evaluation step.
Consolidation of dakwah jamaah is performed by knowing every person in the core
jamaah (congregation) and also knowing prospective jamaah. Consolidation as the
most important step is done by greeting each other, smiling, having good thoughts
towards others, showing openness, humbleness, and compassion. All those deeds will
bring sympathy and love among jamaah. After the consolidation step, it is followed by
solidarity step. Here, the members should accustom themselves to have discussions and
choose neighbors who need their supports. The next steps are completion, evaluation,
correction and revision. |
