Tasawuf Substantif: Santapan Rohani Masyarakat Modern

Abstract

Technological advances in the modern century have not only produced a positive impact on human life, but also caused various problems for the modern human community. Moral drought, the aridity of spirituality, the increasing crime rate, and the increasing number of people who are stressed and depressed are problems that must be resolved immediately. Rewatering the spirit of modern society is one solution. Among other things, by developing substantive sufism in modern society, namely sufism which explores the substance of sufism teachings to be applied in daily activities. Unlike formative sufism, which is characterized by certain rituals, ceremonies, and life practices, substantive sufism is seen as more compatible with the life of modern society which is super busy, mechanistic, and tends to be stuck in the density of daily routines. Armed with substantive sufism, modern society can still live up to the positive values of sufism without having to get rid of its daily busyness. With substantive sufism, the positive values of sufism can still be felt by modern society without having to pull over and pull over into a quiet place.  Then it is important to note, as one of the scientific vak in Islam, it is certain that sufism (including substantive sufism) is based on the Qur'an and hadith. This paper specifically highlights the substance of sufism unearthed from the hadith and its relevance for solving the problems of modern society. The substantial values of sufism are elaborated from the hadith using the thematic hadith understanding method. As a result, among the substantial values of sufism from the hadith perspective are zuhud, 'uzlah, tawakkal, gratitude, and patience. These substantial values are seen as effective for solving various spiritual problems of modern society.
