Abstract

Islamic da’wah and jihad in its development experienced dynamics and dialectics in accordance with the existing sociocultural context. Likewise, the call for jihad was issued by Nahdlatul Ulama in defending the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia from the Japanese and Allied colonization who wanted to regain control of the Republic of Indonesia. Asghar Jihad (Jihad by using weapons) became a strategic decision of Nahdlatul Ulama with the consideration that harakah da’wah (movement da’wah) was absolutely enforced because of three reasons. First, the muslims have the strength of aqidah and faith. Second, the muslims have the strength of unity and strong unity (quwwat al wahdah wa at tarabbuth). Third, the muslims have the strength to fight in the way of Allah SWT (Quwwat al Jihad). The Jihad Resolution text issued by NU in 1945 became the strength of the Muslims to fight to defend the integrity of the Republic of Indonesia from imperialist intervention, willingly sacrificing their lives, property and souls. Critical Discource Analysis (CDA) approach is a theory and method used to conduct empirical studies on the relationships between discourse, social and cultural developments in different domains. Norman Fairclough’s critical discourse analysis is used as an approach to uncover three issues; text production process, interpretation process and discourse practice.
