Abstract

This study is ethnographic research of the Indonesian Mafia Shalawat
music group in Ponorogo, East Java, by using the communication theory of Jane
Collier and Milt Thomas as a framework for discussing two important themes,
i.e.efforts to strengthen the identity of Nahdliyin youth and the construction of
Nahdliyin youth identity in the whirling dances Mafia Shalawat Indonesia. The
results of this study are First, The whirling dances Mafia Shalawat Indonesia as a
medium to strengthen the identity of Nahdliyin youth in the digital era. The
model is semi-virtual in which conventional stage art is combined with
publications on social media youtube, Facebook, Whatsapp, Instagram, twitter,
streaming TV, Islamic popular music, reading sholawat, and Sufi dances as
cultural Sufism. Second, the construction of Nahdliyin youth identity with the
whirling dances Mafia Shalawat Indonesia is an exploration and commitment of
deradicalization through moderate Islam (wasathiyah), ahlus sunnah wal jama'ah
ideologies, love peace, gender equality, patriotism, nationalism of the Republic
of Indonesia, trends, lifestyles, multicultural dialogues, rejecting extreme
Islamic ideology (left or right), and rejecting radical acts such as terrorism,
fighting between youths, separatist movements, betrayal, and so on.
