Abstract

This study examines the reception of Muhammad al-Ghazali’s ideas as articulated in his work Kayfa Nata‘āmal ma‘a al-Qur’ānwithin the One Day One Juz(ODOJ) community in Medan. It focuses on how al-Ghazali’s concept of reflective engagement with the Qur’an is understood, interpreted, and practiced through the community’s daily activity of reading one juz of the Qur’an. Employing a qualitative approach with descriptive-interpretive analysis, this study explores the dynamics of this phenomenon. Three theoretical frameworks—Reception Theory, Social Practice Theory, and Cultural Transformation Theory—are applied to analyze the processes of reception, the formation of everyday religious practices, and the adaptation of classical Islamic thought within the context of modern urban Muslim life. Data were collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation of community activities. The findings reveal that al-Ghazali’s teachings inspire spiritual intimacy and the cultivation of pious habits through Qur’anic recitation. The community’s reception is active and contextual, shaped by social, cultural, and digital factors. This study concludes that classical Islamic thought remains relevant and can be effectively integrated into contemporary religious movements in Indonesia.
