Introduction
Da'wah is an obligation for all Muslims both on an individual, institutional, and
organizational scale, da'wah is also not only the authority of scholars or religious figures,
but every Muslim can do it. Indeed, da'wah is not only a religious lecture, but includes
all activities in which there is an element of invitation to goodness both verbally, in
writing and by deeds and examples. (Muhazzah Said, 2012)
One of the agencies that has the task of da'wah is the Ministry of Religious Affairs, which
is an agency tasked with organizing government affairs in the field of religion to assist
the President in organizing the government of the country. (Https://Kemenag.Go.Id,
20)
Minister of Religious Affairs Lukman Hakim Saefuddin launched the work culture
program at the Ministry of Religion in the form of 5 values of work culture on November
6, 2014. This cultural program is a collaboration between the Ministry of Religious
Affairs and the Emotional Spiritual Quotient (ESQ) led by Ary Ginanjar. The
establishment of five values of work culture is intended as a mental revolution strategy
among civil servants of the Ministry of Religious Affairs as a mental revolution strategy
in order to implement the vision of mental revolution proclaimed by the President of the
Republic of Indonesia (detik News, 2022)
The five work cultures of the Ministry of Religious Affairs that are trying to be
implemented consist of integrity, professionalism, innovation, responsibility, and
example (Babel.Kemenag.Go.Id, 2020). The birth of the 5 Work Cultures, to answer his

desire to restore the image and trust of the Ministry of Religious Affairs in the eyes of
the public as evidenced by good performance. Therefore, public service efforts based on
accountability and transparency must be supported by sincere and maximum service
from all employees. (Website, 2022)
The work culture applied by the Ministry of religious affairs is part of the method of
da'wah in the context of religious formation both to employees of the Ministry of
Religion and to the community, including those within the scope of the Ministry of
religious affairs of Majene Regency. Every employee of the Ministry of Religion in
carrying out their duties and responsibilities as one of the stakeholders within the scope
of the Ministry of religion is required to have integrity, and professionalism, always
innovate, be responsible, and appear to be an example in society (Tamam, 2020)
Based on observations, it is often found that employee behavior is not disciplined and
violations of dress etiquette are not appropriate for office employees. This is contrary to
the expectations of the ministry of religious affairs which has become a role model or
role model for the community with the implementation of the five work cultures of the
ministry of religion. (Thontowi et al., 2019a).
The attitudes and behaviors of the employees of the Ministry of religious affairs
described reflect the realization or implementation of the five work cultures within the
scope of the Ministry of religious affairs properly. This problem requires follow-up
handling, a form of da'wah method is needed to build a work culture within the Ministry
of Religious Affairs so that in the future all duties and responsibilities of the Ministry of
Religion can really be carried out optimally (Asmaya, 2014).
This is what inspired researchers to conduct research related to da'wah in building a
work culture within the Ministry of Religious Affairs of Majene Regency as a form of
implementation of PMA No.582 of 2017. This research is expected to contribute to
institutions in order to better carry out their duties and responsibilities. The formulation
of the problem in this study is how is the correlation between da'wah and work culture
within the Ministry of Religious Affairs of Majene Regency and work productivity
within the Ministry of Religious Affairs of Majene Regency?
This study aims to analyze the relationship between da'wah and Work Culture in work
productivity within the Ministry of Religious Affairs of Majene Regency as a form of
implementation of PMA No.582 of 2017. The theoretical usefulness of this research is
expected to produce scientific contributions in the field of da'wah and communication
that can be applied in da'wah and communication activities,
This study discusses da'wah in building a Work Culture within the Ministry of Religious
Affairs of Majene Regency relevant to several researchers, including Badrut Tamam who
examined the Public Relations Strategy in Internalizing the Five Values of Work Culture
of the Ministry of Religious Affairs at PTKI East Kalimantan. The results revealed PTKI's
Public Relations in East Kalimantan (Tamam, 2020). Zulkifli Syauqi Thontowi,

Work Culture Values at the Office of the Ministry of Religious Affairs of Banyumas

Result And Discussion

can be seen in Q.S. Ali Imran verse 104;

It translates: "And let there be among you a class of people who call upon virtue,
command the Maruf and prevent the munkar; They are the lucky ones". (Al-Quran, 1984)
The verse shows the command to proselytize for Muslims as a marker that the law of
da'wah is obligatory. Da'wah is a vehicle to convey religious messages, covering all
aspects of human life and consolidating them in the format of meaningful morality of
human life. (Ismail & Da'wah, 2011)
In general, da'wah is an invitation to a better one, containing ideas about progressivity,
and a process leading to a better one in realizing the purpose of da'wah. In da'wah there
is a dynamic idea, which is something that continues to grow and develop in accordance
with the demands of space and time. (Ridlo, 2020)
The dynamism of an idea in da'wah illustrates that da'wah activity is a continuous
process, an effort to change and invite the object of da'wah to be willing to accept
teachings from Allah SWT by carrying out various types of da'wah communication
strategies. (Atqia et al., 2022)
As a sacred movement that is flexible and universal, da'wah always develops according
to the rhythm of the times and the culture that accompanies it. Macro da'wah must play

a role in the global arena, control, and color it, micro da'wah must remain based on local
interests. (Ultra et al., 2022)
Culture comes from the Sangskrit language buddayyah which is the plural form of the
word buddhi which means reason or something related to reason, thoughts, values, and
mental attitudes. Cultivation means empowering the mind, in English it is called culture
from the Latin colure which means to cultivate or do something which then develops as
humans actualize the sense (value), karsa (creativity), and work
(performance).(Molotolo, 2017)
Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary also defines culture as an integrated pattern of
human behavior including thoughts, speech, actions, and artifacts and depends on
people's capacity to listen and pass on knowledge to future generations. In Jeff
Cartwrigt's view, culture is a powerful determinant of people's beliefs, attitudes and
behaviours and its influence can be measured through how motivated people are to
respond to their cultural environment. On that basis Jeff Cartwrigt defines culture as an
organized collection of people whose various goals, beliefs and values are the same and
can be measured in terms of their influence on motivation. (Wibowo &; Phil, 2016)
Social anthropologists say that culture is the watchword for all patterns of thinking,
feeling, and acting. The point is not only certain activities that can purify the mind, but
some daily activities such as respect, eating, drinking, showing or not showing feelings,
keeping a distance from others, or maintaining a healthy body (Aslan & Yunaldi, 2018)
Work is defined in the big dictionary Indonesian (KBBI) as the activity of doing
something that is done. (Big Indonesian Dictionary (KBBI), 2022) Koontz and O'Donnell
state that work is the use of energy to complete or do something, which is done
physically or mentally, and voluntarily or forcefully. (Sari et al., 2018)
Work is carrying out an activity that can produce or complete a thing in the form of
goods or services to meet needs and get wages or pay. Related to culture, it is said that
work culture is an important factor, because it can change the attitudes and behaviors of
individuals who become human resources to achieve work productivity.(Ali et al., 2022)
Work culture can be defined as a person's perspective on the process of working. The
most basic goal in work culture is to build our own Human Resources (HR). Work
culture can be built by trying to design traditional communication culture into modern
management behavior, to create a high order of trust and spirit of cooperation and good
discipline. A work culture that is implemented in the office well will be able to increase
employee work productivity and create a warm work atmosphere so that a sense of
family will increase and communication will improve (Thontowi et al., 2019b)
The Decree of the Minister of State Apparatus Empowerment Number 25 of 2002 in Zeri
Maria defines work culture as a form of quality daily work that always underlies
meaningful values, so that it becomes a motivation, inspires to always work better, and
satisfies the community served.
Work culture according to Mangkunegara quoted from Edgar H. Schein defines work
culture is a set of assumptions or belief systems, values, and norms developed in
organizations that are used as behavioral guidelines for its members to overcome
problems of external adaptation and internal integration (Udayani & Sunariani, 2018)

Taliziduhu Naraha said that work culture can be divided into two elements, namely:
1. Attitude towards work, that is, a fondness for work compared to other activities, such
as relaxing, simply deriving satisfaction from one's busy work, or feeling forced to do
something just for survival.
2. Behavior at work, such as diligent, dedicated, responsible, careful, conscientious,
conscientious, strong willingness to learn their duties and obligations, likes to help
employees, or vice versa. (Pakaya, 2020)
The two elements in the work culture are an illustration of the importance of work
culture, this is related to the maximum implementation of duties and responsibilities of
each agency such as the Ministry of Religious Affairs. There are five work cultures in the
Ministry of Religious Affairs that are trying to be implemented, guided by these five
work cultures, each Ministry of Religious Affairs apparatus is expected to be able to
carry out duties and functions as well as possible, perform high, and avoid all forms of
violations and irregularities.
The five values of the work culture of the Ministry of Religious Affairs are expected to
be standard guidelines for every stakeholder within the scope of the ministry of religion
in carrying out every activity, duties and responsibilities that serve the community in
the religious field, The brief description related to the five work cultures of the ministry
of religion can be seen as follows:
1. Integrity
Integrity according to the ministry of religious affairs is the harmony between the
heart, mind, words, and deeds that are good and right. Integrity is a concept that
shows consistency between actions with values and principles. As for ethics, integrity
is defined as honesty and correctness of actions taken by someone.
Individuals with integrity are those who have harmony between good and true
hearts, minds, words, and deeds. So that the characteristics of positive indications of
integrity in individuals are: the determination and willingness to do good and right,
positive thinking, wise and wise in carrying out duties and functions, complying with
applicable laws and regulations, rejecting corruption, bribery, or gratification. In
addition to positive indications, individuals can also be assessed for integrity by
looking at the negative indications they have consisting of: violating oaths and
promises of employees or positions, committing engineering or manipulation acts,
and accepting gifts in any form outside the provisions.
2. Professionalism
Professionalism relates to profession, profession, ability to act professionally.
Professionalism means working in a disciplined, competent, and timely manner with
the best results. The positive indications of professionalism are: doing work according
to the competence of the position, discipline, and earnest in working, doing work
measurably, carrying out and completing tasks on time, receiving rewards and
punishments in accordance with the provisions. In addition, professionalism can also
be measured by paying attention to negative indications consisting of: doing work
without careful planning, doing work not in accordance with duties and functions,
lazy at work, doing work with results that are not in accordance with standards.

3. Innovation
Innovation, which is perfecting existing and creating new and better things. Finding
new things that benefit society, because bureaucrats are not machines so they are
required to innovate and are no longer stuck in routine.
Innovation in this case is also interpreted by perfecting existing and creating new
things that are even better. Positive indications for individuals are always making
periodic and continuous improvements and improvements, being open and
accepting new constructive ideas, increasing personal competence and capacity,
daring to take breakthroughs and solutions in solving problems, utilizing information
and communication technology in working effectively and efficiently. While the
negative indications are: feeling quickly satisfied with the results achieved, being
apathetic in responding to the needs of stakeholders and users, lazy to learn, ask and
discuss, and be closed to development ideas.
4. Responsibility
Responsibility, which is to work thoroughly and consequently. The Ministry of
Religious Affairs apparatus should have a high awareness that their work in the
Ministry of Religious Affairs must be accounted for, this is our way to always fortify
ourselves to always be on the track in carrying out their beliefs and carrying out their
respective duties and functions.
Positive indications of responsibility are completing work well and on time, daring
to admit mistakes, willing to accept consequences and take corrective steps,
addressing problems promptly, and commitment to the task given. The Negative
Indications are negligence in carrying out duties, procrastinating and /or avoiding in
carrying out duties, always feeling right and like to blame others, rejecting risks or
work results, choosing work according to personal wishes, and abusing authority and
responsibility. Responsible individuals are individuals who can be given the mandate
because they have the competence to complete a given task.
5. Exemplary
Example is one or various things that can be imitated or imitated and there is no need
to doubt. Exemplary, being a good example for others. Inviting us to realize that as
officials of the Ministry of Religious Affairs must be exemplary in their respective
environments.
A person who has an example is a person who can be a good example for others.
Many things can be judged as a positive indication of example, namely: commendable
character, providing service with a good attitude, full of friendliness and fairness,
guiding and giving direction to subordinates and colleagues, doing good work
starting from oneself. However, in addition to positive indications, there are some
things that should be avoided because they are negative indications such as, having
a despicable character, serving with a modest and half-hearted attitude, treating
different people subjectively, violating laws and regulations, and ignoring forms of
violations.
Five work cultures within the scope of the ministry of religious affairs which are a form
of policy in the form of rules that are expected to be well implemented. The work culture
also has benefits as conveyed by Triguno, which aims to change the attitude and
behavior of human resources so that they can increase work productivity to face various
challenges in the future. The real benefits of implementing a good work culture in an

organizational environment are improving the spirit of cooperation, increasing
togetherness, being open to each other, increasing family spirit, increasing a sense of
kinship, building better communication, increasing work productivity. Knowledge and
understanding related to values and work culture are needed because of the large
benefits that can be felt by actors and targets.
Da'wah and Work Culture in Increasing Productivity within the Ministry of Religious
Affairs of Majene Regency
The Majene Regency Religious Affairs Department Office was established in 1957,
starting in the form of the Religious Affairs Office called JAURA led by KH. Zainal
Abidin was part of South Sulawesi Province (now part of West Sulawesi Province. was
inaugurated based on the Decree of the Minister of Religious Affairs of the Republic of
Indonesia Number 87 of 1967 dated July 31, 1967.
The Ministry of Religious Affairs of Majene Regency is a working unit area of the West
Sulawesi Regional Ministry. The Office of the Ministry of Religious Affairs plays a very
important role in the community, especially services in the religious and social fields of
society as well as building coordination, integration, and synchronization and working
in synergy with local governments to achieve goals.
The Majene Regency Ministry of Religious Affairs Office carries out policy direction
through programs that have been simplified into 4 (four) programs, namely:
management support programs, community harmony programs and religious life
services, teaching and learning quality programs, and early childhood and compulsory
education programs for 12 years.
The regulation set by the Ministry of Religious Affairs is a form of da'wah method to
improve its performance. This work culture is implemented in all working areas of the
Ministry of Religious Affairs, including the Ministry of Religious Affairs of Majene
Regency.
The work culture has a correlation with da'wah so that it can be said that da'wah and
work culture are closely interrelated. Several statements were related to the correlation
between da'wah and work culture in the Ministry of Religious Affairs of Majene
Regency, including Kurnia a teacher within the Ministry of Religious Affairs of Majene
Regency who stated that:
The work culture within the scope of the Ministry of Religious Affairs of Majene Regency
is well implemented, the work culture that is easiest to implement is exemplary, which
is to be a good example for others, because for everyone must reflect goodness at least
starting from oneself to produce an exemplary person. The most difficult work culture
to implement innovation is to perfect the existing and create new and better things
because they have not dared to do anything else to create new things and what else to
change. The implementation of da'wah and work culture within the scope of the
religious affairs ministry of Majene district has been maximized. The method of da'wah
in the application of work culture is integrity, namely harmony between the heart, mind,
words, and deeds that are good and true. The relationship between da'wah and work
culture is very suitable because it involves a lot of civilities, honesty, responsibility,
discipline, and good deeds thoughts.
This statement can be synchronized with the results of the researcher's observations as
shown in the following figure.

Figure 1. Routine Recitation After Every Asr Prayer
The picture above shows da'wah activities within the Ministry of Religious Affairs of
Majene Regency. This was reinforced by the results of an interview delivered by the
Head of the Religious Affairs Office (KUA) of Pamboang District as well as the Young
Head of the Ministry of Religious Affairs of Majene Regency which stated that:
The implementation of work culture within the scope of the Ministry of Religious Affairs
of Majene Regency is going well the easiest work culture to implement is exemplary,
which is to be a good example for others, this is because the institution of the ministry
of religion has instilled values that are very beneficial for themselves and others. The
most difficult work culture to implement is integrity, which is harmony between the
heart, mind, words, and deeds that are good and true, because often things that are
general in nature are sacrificed by personal interests and groups. The da'wah method in
the application of work culture within the scope of the Majene regency religious affairs
ministry goes well, the relationship between da'wah and good work culture, the type of
da'wah method carried out by lecturers. This method is used because the institution of
the Ministry of Religious Affairs is the government's mouthpiece in
conveying/disseminating information that brings benefits to the people, especially in
the religious field. These statements in addition to conveying the implementation of
da'wah within the scope of the Majene Regency Ministry of Religious Affairs which is
going well, the statement also illustrates a very large and strong correlation between
da'wah and work culture within the Majene Regency religious ministry. This can also
be seen from the activities of the stakeholders who carry out congregational prayers and
then conduct recitations so that there is da'wah with exemplary methods and lectures
displayed.
The correlation between da'wah and work culture based on observations and from the
above statements is good, suitable, and very close. The correlation between da'wah and
work culture conveyed in this case is very suitable because it involves a lot of civilities,
honesty, responsibility, discipline, and good deeds thoughts.
In addition, the application of various da'wah methods so that the work culture can be
implemented properly and maximally illustrates concretely the existence of a reciprocal
relationship or a strong correlation between da'wah and the work culture of the ministry

Mustapa Tangngali, Muliaty Amen, Mahmuddin, Paradise Muhammad
of religion. This can be analyzed from the application of work culture such as exemplary
which is one form of the da'wah method.
Da'wah by example is also called da'wah bi al-Khal, which is da'wah with actions that
make someone can be an example for others. Da'wah by example is a work culture that
is considered the easiest to implement by the average employee within the religious
affairs ministry of Majene Regency. The reasons related to this are quite varied, such as
the reason that the person is a mirror of goodness that starts from oneself so as to
produce an exemplary person, this can be done by will, habitual factors, and regulations
and religious ministries that have implemented it.
The work culture that is easy and difficult to implement by stakeholders within the
Ministry of Religious Affairs of Majene Regency varies, this can be analyzed from the
following statements. Abdul Hafid, the compiler of mosque construction materials in his
interview with researchers stated that:
Implementation of Work Culture within the Scope of the Ministry of Religious Affairs
of Majene Regency Effective and efficient, The work culture that is easiest to implement
integrity is harmony between hearts, thoughts, words and deeds that are good and right
because it can provide inspiration as citizens and as servants of God that developing
state duties is a mandate from Allah. The most difficult work culture to implement
Exemplary is to be a good example for others, because it is like giving a reflection to
others while ourselves are rather difficult to fix. The application of da'wah and work
culture within the Ministry of Religious Affairs in Majene is effective, such as carrying
out religious activities such as group taklim assemblies and continuous Ramadan safari
visits in the month of Ramadan, Friday safari visits to each mosque on Fridays and other
activities that are considered effective. The relationship between da'wah and work
culture is very close, namely as inspiration and there is jariyah charity through hablum
minallah wa hablum minannaas. The method that is often applied is Lecture, because
the lecture method can be heard, analyzed, and can be understood. The obstacle is that
too often there are political elements involved in da'wah affairs because they want to
have selfishness and their families or other languages, there are enemies in the blanket
of the Government and scholars and the community are enthusiastic in the development
of da'wah and the development of work culture, the impact of da'wah in efforts to
implement work culture within the Ministry of Religious Affairs of Majene regency Has
a positive impact on the community.
Ismu Faqih, Kasi PD Pontren Ministry of Religious Affairs Majene Regency who
stated that:
The implementation of da'wah and work culture within the scope of the Ministry of
Religious Affairs of Majene Regency is quite good, the easiest work culture to implement
is professionalism, namely working in a disciplined, competent, and timely manner with
the best results, this is easy to do because it is motivated by a sincere heart supported by
many adequate facilities. The most difficult work culture to implement is innovation,
namely perfecting existing ones and creating new, better things because of the lack of
awareness of civil servants and the absence of appreciation for civil servants according
to the level of behavior of civil servants, The relationship between da'wah and work
culture in the Ministry of Religious Affairs of Majene Regency is quite good even though
it still wants to be improved, the da'wah method applied is temporarily through the oral
bill da'wah method, with the direction and guidance of civil servants through
ceremonial activities every Monday, national awareness day and Apple every day.

Da'wah Along and in line with the socialization of the work culture of the Ministry of
Religion of Majene Regency, the da'wah method used is Lecture because it is easy to
implement. The challenge of da'wah within the religious affairs ministry of Majene
regency is apathy, boredom, and others. How to overcome it by changing the da'wah
system that is not boring. Da'wah support is quite good, maximizing it by raising
awareness of civil servants through leadership control. Through the application of
related regulations and coupled with the firmness of the leadership.
The above statement explains the correlation between da'wah and work culture in the
religious affairs ministry of Majene district. Da'wah in this case is considered very close
and related and serves as an inspiration to do charity in carrying out relationships
between humans and relationships with God, as well as a reference and motivation in
realizing a work culture.
Work culture as a form of values that become habits in individuals starting from
customs, religions, norms, and rules that become beliefs in oneself work or
organizational behavior seems to be well enforced by employees within the scope of the
Ministry of Religious Affairs of Majene Regency. A work culture which is a belief,
attitude and value owned, and arises in the organization correlates with da'wah.
The implementation of work culture within the scope of the Ministry of Religious Affairs
of Majene Regency has functioned well binding on employees as a result of the
formulation which formally became rules and regulations that must be implemented.
This makes the implementation of da'wah easier to do because it has been established as
a form of formal rules that must be implemented.
The implementation of da'wah and the interrelated work culture cannot be separated
from challenges such as the apathetic attitude of employees and boredom towards the
implementation of da'wah. The implementation of da'wah and work culture and its
correlation with the above statement are emphasized on professionalism which is also
part of the da'wah method, which is to do something with sincerity. Further analyzing
related to the implementation of da'wah and its correlation with work culture shows that
seriousness is needed in its implementation.
In addition to the example, integrity, professionalism, and innovation that correlate with
da'wah, responsibility is also something that is strongly emphasized in Islam.
Responsibility in this case refers to the implementation of the mandate that is not easy
but is still fulfilled with sincerity. This illustrates a very close and appropriate
correlation.

them, integrated in behavior including thoughts, speech, and actions that are always

The implementation of work culture at the Ministry of Religious Affairs of Majene
Regency went well because it was supported by several factors such as a strong
correlation between da'wah and work culture. In addition, in the work culture there are
da'wah values that are very influential on the personal of stakeholders such as attitudes
and behaviors that are full of responsibility, the desire to always innovate, orientation to
results, knowledge and applicable work systems.

the process of working. A work culture that is implemented in the office well will be
able to increase employee work productivity and create a warm work atmosphere so
that a sense of family will increase and communication will improve.

Da'wah for the implementation of work culture has been carried out well, the da'wah
method applied is expected to restore good image and trust in the eyes of the public as
evidenced by good performance. The relationship between da'wah and work culture is
very close where da'wah has been able to carry out moral reforms, namely discarding
bad morality and bringing back good morality, the most suitable method is discussed in
order to channel opinions and/or innovation in accordance with existing regulations for
better performance. The challenge of da'wah found is that there are still different
perceptions or opinions between one another. and overcome it by way of discussion so
that there is common ground. The implementation of da'wah and work culture is very
good while still implementing and implementing the value of work culture in
accordance with applicable regulations, the method applied is to always apply or instill
the value of work culture in all ranks. The impact is very good where the implementation
of work culture values gradually changes the habits of employees to be more disciplined,
responsible, and professional.
A work Culture that continues to be implemented in a maximum way can become a
habit. This happens because the work culture is carried out repeatedly by employees in
an organization. Work culture that becomes a habit for stakeholders can affect the way
of daily work, this has an impact on quality performance and always underlies work
with meaningful values, so that attitudes and behaviors as a form of work culture
implementation become motivation, and can inspire stakeholders to always work better,
and provide satisfactory service for the community.
Based on observations and interviews, researchers found that work culture will be easy
to do because of a positive attitude towards work, a liking for work compared to other
activities, such as relaxing, or simply getting satisfaction from his own busy work, or
feeling forced to do something just for his survival. Apart from a positive attitude, work
culture is also supported by stake holder behavior such as behavior at work, which
includes craft, dedication, responsibility, prudence, thoroughness, careful behavior, a
strong willingness to learn their duties and obligations, likes to help fellow employees,
or vice versa. This can be seen in the following picture.

inspiration to work better, increase productivity, and realize the vision and mission of
the institution or vice versa.
