Diskursus radikalisme di kalangan guru Pendidikan Agama Islam (PAI) di DKI Jakarta: pengertian, penyebab dan upaya pencegahannya

The emergence of radical discourse within society, that often associated with the aspect of Islamic Religious Education (PAI), required counter-narrative efforts through the reinforcement of understanding among PAI teachers. Motivated by such a context, the researcher conducted a study involving PAI teachers in DKI Jakarta, examining their perspectives or concepts of radicalism, the causes of radicalism, and efforts or strategies in preventing radicalization. This qualitative research employed interview methods, Focus Group Discussion (FGD), and reviews to the relevant literatures for data collection. Data were obtained from 19 Islamic religious education teachers in DKI Jakarta as the primary informants. The findings reveal that PAI teachers in DKI Jakarta share a common understanding that radicalism contradicts Islamic teachings. Additionally, they reject radicalism in any form and agree to collectively combat radicalism. The identified causes include environmental factors, differences in religious ideological beliefs, and a lack of trust to the government. Strategies employed to prevent radicalism involve the cultivation and reinforcement of Pancasila values, moderate Islamic values (Islam wasathiyah), and values on diversity and tolerance.
