Religion and State in Islamic Constitutional Law: The Role of Pesantren in Strengthening Symbiotic Islam and the State in Madura
Abstract
The Pesantren Law further emphasizes the existence of pesantren who are responsible for spreading the ideology of patriotism. Pancasila has established a mutual need and benefit pattern between religion and the state. It is unique that the position of religion in Pancasila is based on the first principle. This follows the thinking of the pesantren in Madura, who view that religion and the state cannot be contradicted because both have a mutually beneficial relationship (symbiotic). The purpose of writing this article is to find out the strategy of the pesantren in spreading the symbiotic understanding of religion and the state in Madurese society, which has proven successful in preventing the spread of radicalism in Madurese Muslim society, where the process of spreading has been massive through social media and online media. This research uses empirical legal research with legal sociology and legal anthropology approaches. The results obtained in this study show that pesantren in Madura use two methods and strategies to spread the Islamic ideology of love for the homeland, namely through internal and external strategy. Internal strategies are carried out through the pesantren teaching system, based on the postulates and advice on patriotism to its students. The external strategy is carried out through establishing a network of pesantren and madrasah branches and organizing the duty ustad program in community life to build and maintain the Nusantara Islamic ideology that loves the country. This research contributes to efforts to improve public understanding of the importance of maintaining harmonious relations between religion and state. This model of strengthening understanding can be a reference for the government in implementing policies to strengthen public understanding of the symbiotic of Islam and the state through religious institutions.
