Islam Damai Versus Kegelisahan Politik (Analisis Pendekatan Teologi)

Abstract

This study explores the concept of Islamic politics, emphasizing the importance of applying ethical and theological values in contemporary political systems, particularly in Indonesia. The background of this study stems from the modern political challenges faced by the Muslim community, such as corruption, pragmatism, and injustice. The objective is to examine and reinterpret fundamental principles of Islamic politics, such as deliberation (shura), justice, and egalitarianism, to implement them in today’s political context. The research employs a library research method, analyzing both classical and contemporary literature on Islamic political thought. The findings indicate that the ethical values of Islamic politics, as taught by the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and applied during the classical Islamic governance era, remain relevant in addressing modern political challenges. Furthermore, these values can guide governance toward inclusivity and responsibility. In conclusion, the application of ethical values in Islamic politics offers a viable solution for creating a fair, transparent, and community-oriented political system, presenting an alternative to the pragmatic and morally disconnected tendencies of secular political models
