“Khawathiru Syabin” is one of Islamic literature that is delivered by speech and supported by a good editing like a small movie. It consists of thirty different topics in every episode. The latest is eighth episode. Although it has several episodes but like pearl that spread around the world, we can enjoy the speech and take the benefit randomly. The speech is presented in very short time around seven minutes. Therefore, its simplicity shows that “khoirul kalaami ma qola wa dalla” the best speech is the most effective. Most of themes reflected social problems such as the weakness of reading, loving and caring the children, and the cleanness and the tidiness of the mosque. This research is aimed at identifying the concept of Khawathiru Syabin in building the Islamic culture. It is also aimed at revealing the clear information about the impact of Khawathiru Syabin toward the audience as found in youtube and facebook.
Emphasizing on the core of cultural study, this research is conducted by the perspective of sociological approach that is supported by Cawelti’s impact approach and Abram’s mimetic approach. Sociological approach views the relationship between the literature and the society that analyzes the concept of Khawathiru Syabin in building Islamic culture. Impact approach is used to trace direct influence of Khawathiru Syabin on human behavior. The relation between Khawathiru Syabin and the real world is portrayed and mirrored by mimetic approach. The library research is employed as the method of collecting data. Books, journal, articles, e-books, websites, videos, and many written materials based on its relevancies to the discussed subject are collected, and selected. The data obtained are analyzed qualitatively and presented descriptively.
This research reveals that the concept of Khawathiru Syabin in Islamic culture building consist of three significant parts namely: thinking, feeling, and action. The most important changing is the changing of mindset (fikr). The mind is like a driver that brings the car to the destination. The changing of mind is inadequate without feeling, emotion, and courage. Feeling (qolb) is like the fuel that gives the power to move the car. The driver not only needs the fuel but also needs skill and appropriate action (suluk) to reach the destination safely. The integration of those three parts will bring the significant changing of behavior toward the good Islamic culture although the speech is delivered in very short time. This great concept brings the impact through the audience. It can be seen from numerous comments that found in youtube and facebook. Most of the comments show that they are aware of the ease of Islamic teaching which can be applied by starting from the small action. It is not as difficult as they had though before.
Key words: Khawathiru Syabin, Islamic culture, thinking, feeling, action
