4.2 The Implementation of the Sufism
Teaching by sheikh Abdul Qodir
Jaelani
Technological advances in the field of
communication and information, and all forms of
modern media that exist today both printed and
electronic media make it easy for people to get
information in any fields of study. This clearly affects
human life in all fields, one of which is a moral
problem. Along with the times, the higher the human
lifestyles sometimes affect the level of human
morality itself. Due to the busyness in pursuing
material that has no end, there are things that are
forgotten by some people who are seeking knowledge
about religion as their spiritual needs. The existence
of religious knowledge and good practice of it will at
least be able to maintain human morality in order to
reflect good character and behaves in accordance with
the guidance and the teachings of the Prophet.
One of human’s modern typologies is the attitude
that develops science and relies on rationality in
addressing the problem in an excessive way.
However, it turns out that the deification of excessive
rationality can plunge humans into secularism and
excessive attitudes can also give birth to a pragmatic
lifestyle that is a reference for efforts to justify any
means to achieve certain goals (Umar Faruq, 2013:
14).
The use of science and technology must always be
balanced with the value of faith and devotion to God.
It is because the Al-Qur’an is a holy book that guides
humans in seeking knowledge and is a bridge that
leads humans to acquire new knowledge that have
never been there before. Through guidance from the
Al-Qur’an, humans will always develop knowledge
with principles for the benefit of the people. On the
contrary, if humans seek and develop knowledge
without being balanced and guided by the Al-Qur’an,
humans will do what they want without seeing the
benefit of the people and seeing the rules that will
later destroy this universe.
It should be realized that the education that has
been developed so far still emphasizes the importance
of academic and brain intelligence. It is rarely focused
on emotional and spiritual intelligence. Whereas,
emotional and spiritual intelligence has advantages
such as teaching integrity, honesty, commitment,
vision, creativity, mental endurance, wisdom, justice,
principles of trust, self-control, and synergy. In
Sufism, IQ (dhak ‘aqli), EQ (dhakdhihni), and SQ
(dhakqalbi) are components of a potential
humanitarian component that need to be developed
harmoniously. This is to produce extraordinary
usability both horizontally within sphere of
association between humans and vertically in relation
to the Transcendent, the Divine, the God. Without it,
what emerges is the growing crisis and degradation in
the moral realm, the impoverishment of human
resources, and the narrowing of thinking horizons that
tend to dwell on narrow militancy and rejection of
plurality (Saifullah, 2008: 215).
Sufism is a teaching about morals that cannot be
separated from the influence of modernization. The
influence of modernization is both positive and
negative. Opportunity creates both opportunities and
obstacles for learners. Thus, the teaching of Sufism is
seen as being able to establish an Islamic character
that will be attached to the hearts of the learners in
order to make them able to sort out what is good and
bad for their lives and consider everything that
happens in the learning process in modern education.
Modern education is education carried out in a
modern way through modern equipment. In this
modern age, computers and the Internet are not new
to education and teaching. Moreover, mastering
computer and Internet is an obligation for teacher.
Many schools have used computer and Internet
facilities in carrying out the process of teaching and
learning activities.
From this study, it is known that during the
teaching and learning process at school, the teacher
taught politeness to learners such us politeness
towards teacher and friends. The teacher also
emphasized good character and abstains from
behaving badly to the learners in order to make the
learners really learn to get good results. Thus, the
learners will be discipline in using time, not lazy, and
always obeying their parents.
In getting along with a small community or a poor
person, a learner has to be considerate of others above
self-interest in terms of food, drink, clothing, worldly
pleasures, and all things that are valuable. A learner
