Pendekatan Filosofi Ibadah terhadap Distraction Culture Modern

Abstract

In the fast-paced digital era, distraction culture systematically fragments human experience and threatens spiritual identity, often leading to a "crisis of self-ownership". This study explores the philosophical approach of worship, specifically through the concepts of muhāsabah al-nafs (self-introspection) and mindfulness, as a strategic solution to this contemporary crisis. Using a qualitative library research design and Al-Farmawy's thematic exegesis method, this research synthesizes classical and modern literature to analyze the transformative power of spiritual discipline. The results indicate that worship, when practiced with deep philosophical awareness rather than mere mechanical routine, functions as a vital spiritual defense mechanism and a tool for psychological healing. Muhāsabah empowers individuals to evaluate their intentions amidst digital noise, while mindfulness restores focused attentiveness to God. Ultimately, this study provides a practical framework for building spiritual resilience and mental health, offering the younger generation a guide to maintaining their transcendental values amidst the overwhelming flow of modern digital information.
