Abstract

From one perspective, Islam is considered a civil society; that is, it is not seen only as a religion that deals with matters of a spiritual nature. So, in this context, Islam can be said to encompass human civilization as a whole, Islam and the state, and other assumptions about Islam. The point is that Islam cannot only be understood as a system of rituals or ideology. Furthermore, Islam does not recognize a dividing wall between the spiritual and the temporal. Religion is considered the main instrument in terms of how to know the world completely. This view is in line with the presence of Islam, which always provides correct moral guidance for human actions, including how Islamic movements have responded to people’s problems, including in the dynamics of the state. With various movements in the form of groups such as community organizations and the ideology accompanying them, it also adds a variant to the pattern of Islamic activism, especially in Makassar City, Indonesia. With a networking pattern between Islamic mass organizations in Makassar City, Islamic activism has formed its Islamic political force in responding to political and public issues.
