Abstract

Zikir Tarekat Qodiriyah Naqsyabandiyah as an alternative treatment for rehabilitating drug addicts based on several previous studies has shown positive results in the rehabilitation of drug trainees. Therefore, this article discusses the extent to which the implementation of the zikir method of Tarekat Qodiriyah Naqsyabandiyah in Pondok Remaja Inabah (1) Malaysia has rehabilitated drug addicts. Theoretical framework of this research are based on Tarekat Qodiriyah Naqsyabandiyah concept of zikir. The method of this study is qualitative, which uses the interview method involving six trainees of PRI (1) Malaysia. The data obtained in this study were then analyzed using the Nvivo12 software package. The results showed that the method of zikir implemented in Pondok Remaja Inabah (1) Malaysia influences the quality of zikir practised by the trainees. It provides positive effects directly and indirectly from positive changes to physical, behavioural and emotional. Therefore, it can be concluded that the spiritual module through the zikir approach can profoundly affect the trainees' souls so that they can give up drugs entirely and start a new life based on the teachings and laws found in the religion of Allah SWT. The implications of this study can be used by stakeholders such as National Anti-Drug Agency (AADK) and Malaysian Drug Prevention Association (PEMADAM) in improving the existing drug rehabilitation modules by including and strengthening several modules related to zikr.
