Abstract

The politicisation of religion has become a socio-religious problem that has the potential to damage the image of religion in the public sphere. This study aims to identify the basis of Habib Ja'far's critical thinking towards the phenomenon of Islamic-based identity politics. This qualitative research in the form of media observation uses content analysis to examine Habib Ja'far's sermons on the ACLC KPK YouTube channel. The results of the study reveal the dimensions of maqasid sharia values in the basis of Habib Ja'far's criticism. This can be seen in his call for rational thinking (hifẓ al-‘aql), avoiding group fanaticism, and maintaining social integration (hifẓ al-watan). This study contributes to the importance of the maqasid sharia paradigm as the basis of fiqh siyasah (Islamic politics) in responding to the problem of religiously-tinged politicisation.
