Islam Nusantara Sebagai Pilar Ideologis Dalam Menjaga Keutuhan Bangsa Pada Era Milenial

Abstract

Islam Nusantara represents a distinctive model of Islam that integrates universal Islamic teachings with local cultural wisdom and national values. In the context of globalization and the millennial era, Indonesia faces various ideological challenges such as religious radicalism, identity fragmentation, and the weakening of national solidarity. This article aims to analyze Islam Nusantara as an ideological pillar in maintaining national unity amid the dynamics of the millennial generation. Using a qualitative-descriptive approach based on literature review, this study explores the conceptual foundations, socio-historical roles, and strategic relevance of Islam Nusantara in strengthening national cohesion. The findings indicate that Islam Nusantara emphasizes moderation (wasathiyyah), tolerance, cultural accommodation, and nationalism, making it highly relevant as an ideological framework for safeguarding Indonesia’s unity. Therefore, strengthening the values of Islam Nusantara among millennials is essential for sustaining social harmony and national resilience in the contemporary era.
