Abstract

In this increasingly challenging era of globalization, increasing oppression towards the international Muslim community is a trend of a humanitarian crisis occurring in some countries. This oppression is primarily driven by hatred and differences in religious beliefs, cultural customs, and ideologies. The objective of this study is to discuss the concept of Madani society as well as the criteria required to address humanitarian issues and the oppression happening to global Muslims. In addition, today's terms of madani society also discuss two terminologies. The existence of Madani society is discussed a lot, especially the country model shown by the Prophet Muhammad through the Charter of Medina. It acts as an important core that affects the administrative structure and development of a prosperous country and society involving Muslim and non-Muslim communities. This study adopts a qualitative approach involving secondary data analysis and interviews, with several Malaysian Muslim NGOs that are active for international humanitarian aid. The collected data will be analyzed descriptively, as well as reporting based on the main theme such as NGOs from the perspective of the Medina Charter clauses and the diversity of Muslim NGO approaches in helping oppressed Muslim brothers. The study's conclusions include the strategy used by Malaysian Islamic NGOs to support the global Muslim community in times of oppressive strife, as well as some of its advantages and disadvantages. The Medina Charter is the basis of this.
