Abstract

This Community Service Program aims to enhance the capacity of da’i participating in Safari Ramadhan activities in Samalanga District through a humanist and contextual da’wah approach. The program was carried out in the form of intensive training involving speakers from various local Islamic boarding schools (pondok pesantren). The training materials focused on strengthening the understanding of moderate Islam, da’wah strategies based on empathy and local culture, as well as persuasive communication techniques. The training method was designed to be participatory, including interactive lectures, group discussions, sermon simulations, and reflective sessions based on field experiences. The results of the program indicate that the da’i were able to develop more adaptive da’wah strategies, such as the use of local languages, the delivery of inspiring stories, and the integration of local wisdom into their sermons. The initial impacts observed in the community include increased congregation participation, the emergence of socio-religious dialogue spaces, and growing trust in the role of young da’i. This activity demonstrates that context-based training can effectively revitalize the social function of da’wah. Therefore, this program is relevant to be replicated as a model of community-based da’wah that is more inclusive and sustainable.
