It’s as has been applied in Bandung City in the era of Mayor Dada Rosada (the famous major of Bandung) who has one of development spirits in Bandung City as “Bandung Agamis” (The religious Bandung) program. The Qualitative descriptive approach is used to explain objectively, detail, and depth to the results that have been obtained in the field. Observation, interview, and documentation are used by the author in collecting the data. The result shows that that religion and state (government) have a symbiotic relationship. The Structural da'wa in “Bandung Agamis” program reflected that substantively religious values could be applied by the government on the public area with no formal labeling of shari'ah Islam as the opinion of integralist madhhab, neither separates religion from the state as the secularists argue.

Summary

Introduction

One of the functions of da’wa is to reconstruct society in accordance with Islamic teachings. One of the risks of the transformation of religious values is the adjustment of religious values to market interests or commercialization (this adjustment can be called soft commercialization), while the commercialization of religion occurs when religion is used as a "commodity" of economic interest, resulting in eliteization Apart from these dilemmas, “Bandung Agamis” program has proven that da’wa through politics (related to religious and state relations) does not have to be integrated or secularistic, but can be symbiotic (complimentary), namely through the application of religious values in various public policies. The public policy portraits of the “Bandung Kota Agamis” in the time of the mayor of Dada Rosada became a worthy case This theme was taken in addition to no similar research on this theme; it became academic anxiety for researchers to try to produce a theory of religious values through power (structural da’wa) as a symbiotic form of religious and state relations. Means of structural da’wa through various public policies, as practiced in the “Bandung Agamis” program of Mayor Dada Rosada's era
