Abstract

The problem of religious conversion is always interesting to elaborate on and discuss from various perspectives of human life. The search for the truth of God and Religion began from the time of the Prophet Ibrahim until now, so that made people try to do verification and typology about the various root causes of the emergence of a person to convert religion. This research becomes more interesting when there are many phenomena of religious conversion in urban communities such as in Surabaya where the people are very heterogeneous in terms of ethnicity, religion, sosial and culture and even the ideology of religious understanding. This study tries to trace back the root causes of converts to Islam and the religious understanding base of the people of Surabaya, especially the perpetrators of converts who comprehend Islam in two institutions namely Muhtadin al-Falah at YDSF (Muallaf Sosial Fund Foundation) and the Institute of Nurul Hayat Foundation for the city of Surabaya. The method used in this research is qualitative. It is important that the footing of this research can be useful to analyze data derived from theories and data from the field. The author hopes to be able to understand and re-reveal the various patterns of causes of religious conversion in Surabaya as well as the basic understanding of their religion after conversion of religion and becoming followers of Islam exclusively, or even inclusively. This research concludes that based on the theory of the cause of people who converts religion, thatis due to the divine factor, educational factor, psychological factor, and sosial factor. It turns out that, in the field, new causes emerge besides the existing factors, such as the dream factor, and the adzan sound factor as well as the marriage factor. Meanwhile, the basis of their religious understanding varies greatly, even there is a mix between the religious understanding bases of the converts. Thus, this is what led to the theoretical implications of this study.
