Abstract

Abstract :This article seeks to explain the rise in popularity of a young habaib among young Muslims in Ponorogo, Habib Naqib bin Abdullah Assegaf, a young habaib with a sholawat Syubanul Shorot assembly that is widely idolised by young Muslims in Ponorogo. This study assumes that the young habaib relies more on entertainment performance than oratorical competence in attracting followers. The results of this study show that (1) Young Habaib have utilised new media and technology through the internet for self-promotion; (2) the promotional power possessed by the shalawat assembly is also supported by young people's congregation as the basis of da'wah and its market share which used to be filled by senior habaib (3) the practice of shalawat carried out by these young Habaib by combining the dimensions of spirituality and musicality so as to attract the attention of millennial youth in urban and rural areas.

Keywords: Yuong Habib, Sholawat Assemblies, Religious Expression
