Abstract

The radical Islamic movement has come and expanded its organization in Tulungagung. This phenomenon has seemingly got no adequate response from the local government yet. In fact, its existence has threatened the long term-social life. Therefore, it needs various strategies to stem the spread of radical Islamic ideology and movement. This article is intended to find out the responses of kyai (ulama, experts in Islam) in Tulungagung towards the radical Islam and strategies undertaken to stem the spread of radical Islamic ideology. The kyais in Tulungagung consider that the radical Islam endangers the life of society as a whole. One of the reason is that the ideology endorses violence. In addition, their exclusive characteristics make their existence be a problem for the surrounding people. Islamic boarding school (pondok pesantren) is then taken into account as an institution which has great potential for deradicalization activities. The step done is by actualizing the values of pesantren which is significant to establish broad understanding and awareness on the existence of radical Islam and its dangers for the life. The data presented in this study were collected through interviewing and doing observations to some kyais in Tulungagung. The collected data were subsequently analyzed by using the theorical framework of deradicalisation. The study reveals that kyais in Tulungagung have tried hard to stem the flow of radical Islam through various efforts of deradicalization which are essential to introduce a moderate Islam appreciating the values of plurality in society. Keywords: radical Islam, kiai, deradicalization.
