KOMUNIKASI DAKWAH PADA PENANGGULANGAN PANDEMI COVID-19 DI LINGKUP PONDOK PESANTREN DALAM PERSPEKTIF RELIGIUS

Abstract

Many of Indonesia's educational institutions are one-of-a-kind and play crucial roles, and Islamic boarding schools are no exception. Teachers and students form deep bonds in the pesantren tradition, which is crucial to the development of students' character and outlook. An Islamic boarding school has already carefully considered the greatest conceivable hazards it would face in the face of the Covid-19 Pandemic because of the high intensity with which it conducts face-to-face activities. Since Banjar Regency is a religious region, avoiding Covid-19 in 2020–2021 requires a religious perspective and excellent Da'wah Communication in the educational process. Faith, morality, sharia, and muamalat are common themes in the da'wah lessons taught at Darussalam Martapura Islamic Boarding School in South Kalimantan.

Due to the lack of coercion and pressure from the Islamic boarding school and the teachers, who what is obligatory is to increase piety and always have the attitude of 'Tawakal Allallah' due to the disease's origin from pigs, the results showed that preventing the spread of Covid-19 in the environment of pigs, including students, female students, and alumni, had provided information regarding the limits of willingness or ability to implement this policy. Students at the Darussalam Martapura Islamic Boarding School in South Kalimantan are required to stay home and increase their remembrance of God, worship, and murratal of the Quran and the hadiths if they are sick, have a fever, or have a cough or runny nose.
