Abstract

Abstract: This article makes an attempt to solve problems by discussing the 20th tasawuf reformation of Hamka and Said Nursi. The academic problems are: Why did Hamka and Said Nursi reform tasawuf by returning to Al-Qur’an and Sunnah?; What are the tasawuf reformation constructions of Hamka and Nursi?; What is the relevance of their tasawuf reformation in the contemporary religious life? In order to understand, elaborate, interpret, make meanings, and reveal the relevance to the contemporary social life, this article employs historical, philosophical, and integrative-interconnectivity approaches.The article finding shows that both Hamka and Said Nursi gave constructive critics and tasawuf reformation due to the factors of conditional-contextual, internal-substantial, and spiritual drought of the 20th century Muslim society. Both Hamka and Nursi made greater attempts to do Sufism ijtihad in formulating their Sufism discourse with moderate patterns so that they could be accessed by all society levels. Therefore, this moderate tasawuf can play more positive functional roles for extensive contemporary society with all aspects.
