Abstract

The aim of this research is to describe the implementation of social solidarity from the theological understanding of Surah al-Māʿūn by the residents of Muhammadiyah in Malaysia during the COVID-19 pandemic. This research model is a case study on the generosity behaviour of migrant workers or better known as the Indonesian Migrant Workers (TKI) Muhammadiyah in Malaysia. This research method uses a qualitative approach. The data collection technique is done by online observation, interviews and documentation. This study applies an interactive analysis through data collection, data reduction, presentation and conclusion drawing. The purpose of this study is to determine the form of social activities carried out by Muhammadiyah citizens in Malaysia who on the other hand are migrant workers in response to the global COVID-19 pandemic. The results of this study can be concluded that the implementation of the value of social solidarity in the Muhammadiyah community in Malaysia, especially for migrant workers, shows that citizen philanthropy indirectly creates a cooperative activity, an activity of mutual help and willingness to sacrifice for others. It is clear how some of the residents participate in an unconditional way in trying to help other residents who do not have basic needs due to the strict social distancing run by the Malaysian Royal Government.
