Abstract

During the 20th century, a combination of the unprecedented challenges-secularized authoritarian state structures, a Western-inspired rationalist discourse and Islamic fundamentalist critique since the second half of the 19th century-led to a decline in traditional forms of Sufism. The reconstruction of Sufism teachings which is relevant to the times is a necessity. The changing times have an impact on the values that led to a moral crisis. Although this century is known as the victory for the religion, that able to provide an answer to the crisis of modern man, but it is not in the form of deeds, which tend formalitistic. That need is the spiritual, giving peace and tranquility of spiritual aridity, and also peace of mind. That can be found in Sufism. However, that has transformed the paradigm, which is not only a spiritual dimension, however, a social one, or called Social Sufism.
