Abstract

Seeking knowledge is a fundamental obligation in Islam that encompasses intellectual, moral, and spiritual dimensions, positioning learning as both an educational process and an act of worship. This study aims to analyze the concept and practice of students’ pursuit of knowledge in Islam and to construct an Islamic educational framework for character formation. Using a qualitative approach with the living Quran and Hadith method, data were drawn from the Quran, Hadith, scholarly interpretations, expert opinions, and previous studies published in reputable international journals. Thematic analysis was conducted through Miles and Huberman’s interactive technique to identify recurring patterns and values. The findings reveal six essential concepts and practices for students in seeking knowledge: sincere intention for Allah, ethics toward teachers, diligence and perseverance, reliance on Allah, avoidance of sinful acts, and supplication. These elements highlight the integration of spirituality, ethics, and discipline in Islamic pedagogy. The study concludes that these six principles provide a practical framework for Islamic character education, offering guidance for educators and institutions to cultivate students with noble character and integrity in diverse educational contexts.

Abstract

Program Pembangunan Tamadun Masyarakat Asli (PETAMA) established by Yayasan Pahang in 1998, was designed to cultivate knowledgeable and capable leaders among Malaysia’s Indigenous Peoples, enabling them to achieve parity with other ethnic groups. PETAMA graduates are expected to serve as da’i and spiritual guides within their communities. This study investigates the religious and educational approaches applied in PETAMA to enhance the quality of life and spiritual awareness of the Indigenous Children subgroup of Malaysia’s Indigenous Peoples. Using a qualitative ethnographic design, data were collected through in-depth individual and group interviews with 30 PETAMA students from the Indigenous Children community. Thematic analysis was conducted using NVivo12 software. Findings reveal ten key approaches: i) formal religious education, ii) religious activities, iii) training and development of da’i, iv) spiritual counseling and mentoring, v) application of Islamic values in daily life, vi) collaboration with religious institutions, vii) formal education, viii) moral and religious education, ix) educational technology and innovation, and x) academic mentoring. These findings provide initial empirical insights into the role of PETAMA in shaping religious education among Indigenous children in Malaysia and serve as a foundation for future research on indigenous education, cultural integration, and spiritual development.

Abstract

This study aims to discover three supporting components that contribute to the success of gifted students in Quran memorization, namely parental support, teacher support, and peer support. A qualitative case study approach was employed, with data collected from twenty purposively selected gifted students actively engaged in Quranic memorization programs. In-depth interviews were conducted, and thematic analysis was performed using NVivo 12 software to identify recurring themes and patterns. The findings reveal that parental support is provided through motivation, emotional encouragement, a conducive environment, and active involvement in accompanying memorization. Teacher support is realized through systematic memorization techniques, continuous monitoring and evaluation, and motivational reinforcement. Peer support contributes through group memorization, healthy competition, and mutual moral encouragement. Overall, the success of Quran memorization among gifted students is strongly influenced by the synergy of family, school, and social environments. This study emphasizes that the integration of parental, teacher, and peer support is essential for designing systematic and comprehensive Quranic memorization programs, and the findings provide practical insights for educators and policymakers in strengthening tahfiz education as a medium for intellectual, moral, and spiritual development of gifted students.

Abstract

The economic development of Muslim minority communities faces ongoing challenges, including limited access to business capital, weak Islamic economic institutions, and the underutilisation of waqf assets as a tool for empowerment. A promising alternative is the establishment of waqf-based institutions that integrate the principles of ta’awun (mutual assistance), justice, and sustainability within the Islamic economy. This study aims to formulate a model of Islamic economic development through waqf institutions as instruments of empowerment for Muslim communities. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, field observations, documentation, and analysis of institutional documents. Data analysis employed an interactive model comprising data reduction, data presentation, and drawing of conclusions. The research findings indicate that the economic development model of waqf institutions is structured around five key components: i) the management of productive waqf funds, ii) the implementation of a Sharia-compliant cooperative system, iii) the empowerment of members’ micro-enterprises, iv) the strengthening of Islamic economic education, and v) transparent institutional governance. This model improves access to Sharia-based financing, expands entrepreneurial opportunities, strengthens social solidarity, and promotes sustainable economic growth. This study contributes to the scientific literature on the optimisation of productive waqf through an institutional framework as a replicable model of Islamic economic development for Muslim minority communities worldwide.

Abstract

The international dormitory environment in the Middle East not only serves as a place of residence, but also as a complex socio-cultural and religious space for foreign students. As a residential area, dormitories offer various activities to foster social, emotional, and spiritual intelligence among students. This study aims to explore how various activities in dormitories can be a medium for the practice of religious moderation education. This study uses a qualitative method with an ethnographic approach. Data sources were obtained through in-depth individual and group interviews with twenty-five foreign students from five countries, namely Malaysia, Indonesia, China, Nigeria, and Bangladesh. All informants were foreign students living in university international dormitories. To strengthen the interview data, the researchers also conducted direct observations of the activities carried out, and even participated for one year in various activities of foreign students at the research site. All data were analyzed thematically using the qualitative software NVivo 12. The research findings reveal that religious moderation values such as tolerance, empathy, and respect for differences are not taught through formal programs but grow organically and are constructed through interactions in seven dormitory activities, namely i) cultural festivals, ii) clubs or communities, iii) volunteer activities, iv) mentorship programs, v) worship or religious rituals, vi) spiritually-based community service activities, vii) spiritual discussion groups. This finding provides a perspective for universities to function dormitories not only as a place to live, but as an inclusive environment that naturally fosters religious moderation.
