Abstract

The philanthropic movement by Muhammadiyah is a concrete manifestation of the practice of Islamic teachings oriented towards the values of faith and humanity. This study aims to dig deeper into how Muhammadiyah carries out philanthropic activities, not only limited to religious aspects but also covering broad social and humanitarian aspects. Through a qualitative approach, this study explores various Muhammadiyah charitable programs and initiatives that have positively impacted society. By adopting the principles of Ta'awun (helping each other) and Takaful (taking care of each other), Muhammadiyah has combined faith and humanity in every action. This shows the organization's commitment to responding to various social problems and strengthens Muhammadiyah's identity as an Islamic organization that cares about humanitarian issues. This study also reviews how the Muhammadiyah philanthropic movement can build synergy with various parties, including the government and other organizations, to create sustainable social change. In conclusion, the Muhammadiyah philanthropic movement offers a new perspective in religious practice that focuses on the spiritual, social, and humanitarian dimensions. This shows that strong faith must be realized through real action that can positively contribute to society. In this way, Muhammadiyah showed that religion and humanity can go hand in hand, creating harmony in diversity.
