This study aims to identify the kinesic movements displayed by Ustadz Abdul Somad while delivering da’wah messages. This study employs a descriptive qualitative approach with data sourced from two sermon videos, namely “Kita Kembali Ke Tanah Maka Janganlah Sombong” and “Hijrah Menuju Pribadi Yang Lebih Baik dengan Iman, Ilmu dan Amal.” Data were collected through media observation and documentation, then analyzed using the classification of nonverbal behavior (The Repertoire of Nonverbal Behavior) developed by Paul Ekman and Wallace V. Friesen, namely emblems, illustrators, affect displays, regulators, and adaptors. The results show that Ustadz Abdul Somad displays all five categories of kinesics with different forms and functions, namely as emphasis, illustration, emotional expression, interaction regulation, and self-adaptation. This kinesic communication functions to reinforce verbal messages and enhance the effectiveness of da’wah message delivery on YouTube media. %K Kinesik, Komunikasi Nonverbal, Dakwah Digital, Ustadz Abdul Somad, Youtube %D 2026 %I UIN SUNAN KALIJAGA YOGYAKARTA %L digilib79502
