Islam wasathiyah menjadi tolak ukur normatif umat Islam dalam menjalankan moderasi beragama di tengah bangsa multikultural. Toleransi merupakan sikap yang mesti diterapkan dalam menghadapi kehidupan bangsa multi religi. Namun kenyataannya, hal tersebut sangat sulit diwujudkan akibat adanya penyebaran paham radikalisme dan ekstremisme secara masif di media sosial. Habib Ja’afar adalah salah satu pendakwah milenial yang sering melakukan dialog lintas agama di media sosial. Dialog tersebut dikemas dalam konten dakwah dan senantiasa mengedepankan prinsip Islam Wasathiyah. Artikel ini mengkaji nilai-nilai syiar Islam dalam konten Youtube “Jeda Nulis” milik Habib Ja’far dengan menggunakan pendekatan studi living hadith. Penelitian ini merupakan hasil kajian lapangan bersifat deskriptif kualitatif. Pengumpulan data menggunakan teknik dokumentasi dan observasi serta dianalisis dengan teknik content analysis. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa hadis-hadis tentang Islam wasathiyah telah hidup dalam dakwah Habib Ja’far. Melalui media Youtube, Habib Jaa’far menghidupkan nilai-nilai hadist Islam wasathiyah melalui tiga tradisi. Pertama, tradisi lisan yakni melalui konten podcast dan ceramah. Kedua, tradisi tulisan yakni quotes bertajuk moderasi beragama. Ketiga, tradisi praktik yakni melalui dialog lintas agama dengan menghadirkan berbagai sudut pandang dan perspektif. Adapun kontribusi penelitian ini ialah sebagai ikhtiar dakwah Islam wasathiyah di era digital, terutama di platform media sosial Youtube.Wasathiyah Islam is a normative benchmark for Muslims in carrying out religious moderation in the midst of a multicultural nation. Tolerance is an attitude that must be applied in facing the life of a multi-religious nation. But in reality, this is very difficult to realise due to the massive spread of radicalism and extremism on social media. Habib Ja'afar is one of the millennial preachers who often conducts interfaith dialogues on social media. The dialogue is packaged in da'wah content and always puts forward the principles of Wasathiyah Islam. This article examines the values of Islamic propagation in Habib Ja'far's "Jeda Nulis" Youtube content using a living hadith study approach. This research is the result of a descriptive qualitative field study. Data were collected using documentation and observation techniques and analysed using content analysis techniques. The results showed that the hadiths about wasathiyah Islam have lived in Habib Ja'far's preaching. Through Youtube media, Habib Jaa'far revives the hadith values of wasathiyah Islam through three traditions. First, the oral tradition, namely through podcast content and lectures. Second, the written tradition, namely quotes entitled religious moderation. Third, the tradition of practice, namely through interfaith dialogue by presenting various points of view and perspectives. The contribution of this research is as an endeavour to preach wasathiyah Islam in the digital era, especially on the Youtube social media platform.
