Description

This article aims to discuss Chinese Muslim social movements which are packed with  da'wah  activities.  In Indonesia,  in  the  last  decades,  this  community  has become  a  separate  social  phenomenon. This study used a qualitative-phenomenological method and will answer important questions. Do Chinese Muslims use social movements as a strategy to overcome their existential problems? And why does this community intensively carry out social roles as their  da'wah  packaging?  In  the  end,  this  study  found  a  positive  relationship between da'wah and social movements as one of the efforts of Chinese Muslims to disseminate Islamic teachings in accordance with their socio-cultural character on the one hand. And through the social role, the Chinese Muslims intend to socialize to the public that there are also ethnic Chinese who embrace Islam on the other hand.
