This article provides a comparative analysis of the responses of the three largest Islamic organizations in Indonesia, namely Nahdlatul Ulama (NU), Muhammadiyah, and Persatuan Islam (PERSIS) examining how spiritual, rational, and socio-economic dimensions are integrated within their disaster management practices. Employing a qualitative approach through a comprehensive literature review and thematic-comparative analysis, the study explores scholarly works and institutional reports on the role of Islamic civil society in disaster management. Findings reveal that NU emphasizes collective spirituality through public prayers and religious solidarity; Muhammadiyah demonstrates a rational-technocratic approach via the Muhammadiyah Disaster Management Center (MDMC) and its Disaster Jurisprudence (Fikih Kebencanaan) framework; while PERSIS contributes through zakat-based philanthropy and community empowerment initiatives. Together, they represent three fundamental pillars of Islamic disaster response: spirituality, rationality, and social justice. Theoretically, this study advances the Inter-Organizational Religious Disaster Response (IRDR) model, highlighting the importance of cross-organizational synergy in value coordination and institutional capacity. Practically, it recommends establishing a collaborative inter-organizational forum as a foundation for an inclusive, professional, and justice-oriented national disaster response system.
