Abstract

This paper attempts to re-read, rather carefully, what spiritual death actually means in religious practice. The focus is not just on whether or not religious activity is crowded, but on something that often goes unnoticed: the depth of the inner experience. In many places, for example, religious studies are becoming more accessible, mosques are full at certain times, and even da'wah content is circulating on social media. But at the same time, there is an impression that the intensity is not always directly proportional to the quality of the experience. That is where this research departed. The approach used is qualitative through library research. The Book of Al-Hikam is used as the main foothold to explore the idea of the death of the heart, then read side by side with the thoughts of other scholars as well as contemporary psychological frameworks such as religious/spiritual struggles, meaning-making, and spiritual numbness. This process is not always linear, but sometimes it shows an interesting tension between the symbolic language of Sufism and the analytical concept of psychology. The findings lead to one rather disturbing but important conclusion: religious practices that are not deeply internalized risk giving rise to spiritual stagnation, even contradictions in everyday moral attitudes. This is where this research tries to contribute, although certainly not perfectly, by bringing together classical Sufism and modern psychology in one more complete conversation about the inner dynamics of religion.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the use of innovative approaches in social education and their impact on student engagement in the learning process. In response to the demands of 21st-century education, traditional teaching methods are no longer sufficient to actively involve students. Therefore, innovative, student-centered strategies are needed to create more meaningful and interactive learning experiences. This research employed a qualitative approach involving teachers and students in secondary schools. Participants were selected through purposive sampling based on their involvement in social education learning. Data were collected through classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis to identify patterns related to teaching strategies, student engagement, and implementation challenges. The findings reveal that innovative approaches such as project-based learning, collaborative learning, role-playing, and the use of digital media significantly enhance student engagement. Students demonstrated higher levels of participation, motivation, and interaction during the learning process. In addition, these approaches contributed to the development of critical thinking, communication, and collaboration skills. Teachers played a key role in facilitating active learning and creating a supportive classroom environment. However, challenges such as limited resources, lack of training, and time constraints were identified as barriers to effective implementation. In conclusion, innovative approaches in social education are effective in promoting student engagement and improving learning outcomes. It is recommended that educational institutions support teachers through training and provide adequate resources to ensure the successful implementation of these approaches.
