Religious Moderation at Pesantren Al-Hikmah 1 Benda-Brebes

Abstract

Technological developments in the context of the industrial revolution 4.0 that affect religious practices do not automatically shift the entire religious values and principles of society. Religious disruption as an impact of that condition is actually responded well by the Pesantren Al-Hikmah 1 as salafy-modern pesantren through strengthening moderate values and characters in the perspective of Sayyid Muhammad bin Alawy al-Māliky. By using a qualitative-descriptive approach, this study would analyze the process of internalization and dissemination of the values of religious moderation at the Pesantren Al-Hikmah 1, the teaching of tolerance reflected in the management of Pesantren Al-Hikmah 1, and the social interaction of the santri with the surrounding society in the Benda Village. This study found that the disruption in technology which is considered major problem for the religious practices, surprisingly constructs a new pattern of religious moderation among the santri at Pesantren Al-Hikmah 1 in the midst of the era of disruption 4.0.
