Abstract

This study aims to determine the formation of identity carried out by Veiled Muslimah Community (KMB) through the internalization of Shariah values contained within the Community. This research method uses a Netnography research strategy. Netnography is a special form of ethnographic research that is adjusted to reveal the unique habits of various types of social interactions mediated by computers. Next to see the formation of KMB internalization, this study uses the theory of the Construction of the Social Reality of Peter L. Berger. Based on the results of the study, through the WhatsApp group members of the Komunitas Muslimah Bercadar conducted virtual communication and stated that KMB was part of their family. Each KMB member has the urge to be in the community based on the same vision, mission and identity. The KMB equation with members can be seen from the openness of the vision and mission and the way to interpret the veil as a way to share goodness. Furthermore, the internalization of Shari'ah values was formed when KMB members lived the veil as a representation of the obedience of a Muslim woman to Allah. Veil is also an identity for KMB members to jointly carry out the vision of the Veiled Muslimah Community (KMB) in grounding Hijab Syar'i. So that the concept of similarity to the symbol of belief and religion that occurs through language and actions in the WhatsApp group finally forms a shared identity in the Awareness Muslim Community
