Abstract

This type of research is a descriptive qualitative research with a participatory approach. It is hoped that this approach will enable researchers to uncover in-depth experiences, perceptions and ideas regarding: (1) Muhammadiyah organizational development, (2) Muhammadiyah social movement forms, and (3) Muhammadiyah social transformation in Enrekang District. This research is focused on Muhammadiyah social movements, including the development of ideology and Muhammadiyah social transformation, with a locus of research in Enrekang Regency, South Sulawesi Province. The results of this study indicate that the development of the Muhammadiyah organization in Enrekang Regency underwent a stagnant development process. The dynamic organizational structure and the spirit of pastabiqul khaerat began to weaken. The form of Muhammadiyah activities can be grouped into three fields, namely: (1) the religious field which includes providing guidance and guidance in the fields of aqeedah, worship, morals and muamalah based on alqurandansunnah, establishing mosques and mushallas as places of worship, printing ulama cadres (fuqaha), examine various Islamic studies and the development of Islam, provide fatwas and guidance in the religious field and conduct da'wah, (2) the field of education which includes education which is oriented to the integration of the general education system and the pesantren system, and (3) the social sector which includes activities in the form of charitable endeavors, medical centers, orphanages. However, it cannot be denied that the three social movements that subsequently became Muhammadiyah's charitable endeavors have experienced a downturn in recent years. Muhammadiyah social movement in Enrekang district in the social sector has not been optimal in touching community empowerment when viewed from the implementation of work programs. As for the impact of the Muhammadiyah movement on the process of social transformation in the Enrekang District, especially those related to superstition, heresy and khurafat, the Enrekangpada community in general and Muhammadiyah people in particular are more rational in their thinking about living in accordance with the Koran and the Sunnah. In the field of education, changed the paradigm of thinking in society a lot. From a negative or narrow way of thinking changed to positive and broad thinking towards the world of education. However, the transformation process has also begun to weaken.
