Abstract

This article examines Islamic Religious Education (IRE) as an agent of social transformation in the context of socio-cultural change, digital disruption, and literacy challenges. The study aims to analyze how Islamic education operates as a pedagogical, cultural, and institutional practice that shapes public ethics, critical awareness, and students' social participation. This research employed a qualitative, educational ethnographic design at SMA Muhammadiyah 4, Andong, Boyolali, Central Java. Data were collected through participatory observation, in-depth interviews with IRE teachers, school leaders, student activity advisors, and students, as well as documentation of curriculum materials, school programs, and cultural artifacts. Data were analyzed thematically through coding, theme development, and interpretive meaning-making. The findings show that Islamic school culture functions as a collective moral language, IRE pedagogy moves between normative transmission and critical dialogue, and digital transformation produces micro-justice practices based on Islamic values. The article contributes to strengthening the perspective of Critical Islamic Pedagogy by integrating pedagogical, leadership, and socio-cultural dimensions in explaining the role of IRE as an agent of social transformation.

Abstract

The Three J Program (Jamaah, Jam’iyah, and Jariyah) represents a strategic initiative of the Muhammadiyah Regional Leadership of Sragen Regency to strengthen the role of religious organizations as agents of community empowerment. However, the implementation of this program has not yet been fully optimized due to limited congregational participation, weak organizational governance, and the predominance of consumptive approaches in jariyah management. This community service activity aims to formulate and implement integrated and sustainable community empowerment strategies to optimize the Three J Program. The implementation method employed a participatory community empowerment approach through stages of needs identification, strategy formulation, mentoring, and participatory evaluation. The results indicate that strengthening jamaah as a social base increases participation and collective awareness; strengthening jam’iyah through improved organizational governance enhances program effectiveness and accountability; and optimizing productive jariyah contributes to community self-reliance and program sustainability. The integration of jamaah, jam’iyah, and jariyah within a unified strategic framework forms a holistic community empowerment model that is responsive to local needs. The Three J Program demonstrates strong potential as a best-practice model for sustainable community empowerment based on religious organizations. Keywords: Community empowerment; Three J Program; Muhammadiyah.

Abstract

Abstract This study aims to explore the enhancement of Qur’anic literacy as an effort to nurture the Al-Mu’min Al-Qowiy generation at SMK Muhammadiyah 5 Surakarta. The Qur’anic literacy program implemented at this school focuses not only on reading and memorization skills but also on a deep understanding of the meanings of Qur’anic verses and their application in daily life. The method used in this study is descriptive qualitative, employing data collection techniques such as interviews, observations, and documentation. The results of the study indicate that the Quran literacy program has a positive impact on students’ understanding of the Quran and the development of their character. Students participating in this program demonstrated improvements in discipline, social responsibility, and mutual respect. Additionally, they were more active in religious activities outside of school and better able to manage stress and personal challenges. These findings align with the theory of religion-based character education, which states that Qur’anic literacy can serve as an effective tool in shaping students’ character. However, this study also identified several challenges, such as time constraints within the vocational high school curriculum which is more focused on technical skills that need to be addressed through a more flexible approach. Overall, this study reveals that strengthening Quranic literacy can serve as a model for the development of religion-based character education in vocational high schools in Indonesia.
