Abstract

The behavior of fanaticism towards religion and radicalism often occurs in the living environment of society, with the pretext of jihad, purification of religion, even preaching to invite society back to the straight and true path as taught in the Quran and Hadith, in fact, often leads to the emergence of radical behavior with the presence of various terrorists, religious coercion, violence, even resulting in murder. The focus of this research is on the Wahhabi sect and teachings, where Indonesia rejects the presence of the Wahhabi sect because it is considered dangerous to the sustainability of the unitary state of the Republic of Indonesia. This research uses qualitative research with a descriptive approach, data collection is done through library research. To this day, fanaticism and radicalism still often occur in Indonesia. Indonesia, as a multicultural country where cultural and religious acculturation can be said to be characteristic of each region in Indonesia. Wahhabi teachings that strongly oppose innovation, if we look at the conditions in Indonesia, will certainly lead to radicalism because it is considered a wrong belief.
