THE SUFISM HEALING AS AN ALTERNATIVE REHABILITATION FOR DRUG ADDICTS AND ABUSERS

Abstract

This research aims to analyze and find the obligation of rehabilitation for drug addicts and abusers from the Islamic perspective and Sufism healing as an alternative rehabilitation for drug addicts. Sufism examines the spiritual aspects of Islam, while healing is the process of recovering from mental illness. This program plan becomes a hypothesis that is worth testing in prison for terrorism prisoners based on qualitative research methods with a phenomenological approach. Sufism healing has long been used to rehabilitate drug users in Islamic Boarding House (pesantren). The research approach in this research is a sociological juridical approach. The findings indicate that, according to an Islamic standpoint, rehabilitating those struggling with drug addiction is deemed obligatory due to the principle of al-Maqashid al-Syariah, which emphasizes the preservation of the mind (al-hifdzu al-aql) as an imperative need. The sufism healing, as a potential alternative approach to rehabilitating those struggling with drug addiction and substance misuse, centers on the objective of cultivating a greater connection with Allah the Almighty through the principles of takhalli, tahalli, and tajalli.
