Abstract

The aim of this research is to find out Jamaluddin Al-Afghani's ideas about Pan Islamism. According to him, Islam must be restored to its glory and free itself from Western slavery as an orientation for progress in various aspects. In the concept of Pan Islamism, the Islamic world must be united, returning the situation to a conducive state to ensure a life of peace. The idea of ​​renewal that was developed was to break away from the shadow of the West which could hinder progress in the Islamic world. The idea of ​​a political movement is the right step to fight against the Western world. The form of unity that is developed can be described in a broader sense. In the understanding of Pan Islamism, Muslims must unite against colonialism by strengthening Islamic teachings to society. The form of unity and diversity developed by Jamaluddin Al-Afghani must return to Islamic teachings as a guide to life and escape from foreign pressure. To catch up with the Western world, don't confuse Sunnatullah theology with rational thinking as a gap in finding the weak points of Muslims.
