Abstract

This study investigates the significance and function of Banyu Penguripan within the cultural tradition of the Kudus community, focusing on its intersections with spirituality, environmental ethics and local natural resource management surrounding the sacred well of Sunan Kudus. Employing a qualitative methodology, the research incorporates fieldwork that includes in-depth interviews with religious leaders, community members and well custodians, as well as participatory observation of rituals and practices associated with Banyu Penguripan. Complementary documentation was also gathered to support the analysis with relevant secondary data. Thematic analysis was conducted to identify key patterns reflecting the integration of spiritual beliefs and environmental ethics, particularly in shaping culture-based conservation models applicable to local resource governance. Findings indicate that Banyu Penguripan functions not merely as a ritual act but as a profound symbol of the interconnected relationship between humans, nature, and the divine. The tradition embodies a form of environmental ethics that fosters communal responsibility for safeguarding natural resources, especially water, as a sacred and shared heritage. This study contributes to the discourse on sustainable environmental stewardship by proposing a culturally rooted conservation framework that emphasizes spiritual values as integral to ecological balance and intergenerational sustainability.

Abstract

This article addresses the ongoing debate of the reliability of the Qur'an as a historical source, focusing on the codification and stabilization of its text. This research examines several significant works by Mun'im Sirry that have contributed to Qur'anic scholarship while raising controversies, particularly among Southeast Asian scholars. Sirry’s critical approach situates his thoughts within the broader discourse of traditionalist and revisionist streams in Qur'anic studies. This study employs a qualitative library research method, cross-referencing Qur'anic scholarship to investigate Sirry's contributions. By comparing his thoughts with both traditionalist and revisionist views, the study aims to assess Sirry’s position and its impact on debates surrounding the historical authenticity of the Qur'an. The findings reveal that Sirry bridges the gap between the extreme skepticism of revisionists and the uncritical acceptance of traditionalists. His nuanced stance acknowledges both the textual evolution of the Qur'an and its historical significance. The study contributes to the ongoing debates on Qur'anic codification, revealing Sirry's role as a critical yet balanced scholar who navigates between these two extremes. His approach emphasizes the importance of historical-critical methods while also recognizing the roles of key figures, such as Abdul Malik and Hajjaj, in stabilizing the Qur'an’s text. Sirry’s position fosters a deeper understanding of the Qur'an’s role in Islamic history, offering a middle path that challenges both traditionalist and revisionist interpretations.

Abstract

This study aims to reconstruct Islamic education governance through pesantren values by developing a multi-site governance model that strengthens institutional excellence and global competitiveness. The research responds to the growing need for governance frameworks that preserve the philosophical identity of Islamic boarding schools while adapting to educational transformation in the digital and global era. A qualitative approach with a multi-site case study design was employed at Salafiyah-Syafi'iyah Islamic Boarding School in Sukorejo, Situbondo, and Al Qodiri Islamic Boarding School in Jember, Indonesia. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, document analysis, and field notes, and analyzed using the interactive model of data condensation, data display, and conclusion verification. The findings reveal that effective Islamic education governance is built upon the integration of value-based leadership, pesantren organizational culture, strategic educational management, integrated curriculum, professional human resource development, collaborative governance, and continuous quality assurance. These interconnected components contribute significantly to institutional innovation, educational quality, organizational resilience, and graduate competitiveness. The study proposes a Pesantren-Based Islamic Education Governance Model as its primary theoretical contribution, demonstrating that traditional Islamic values can serve as strategic organizational resources for sustainable institutional transformation. The findings imply that educational policymakers and pesantren leaders should integrate religious values with contemporary governance practices to strengthen institutional performance and prepare globally competitive graduates while preserving the authentic identity of Islamic boarding schools.

Abstract

This research investigates the construction of patriarchal values embedded in the religious discourse portrayed in the Malaysian television series *Bidaah* by employing Asghar Ali Engineer's hermeneutics of liberation as its analytical framework. Using a qualitative interpretive methodology, the study examines audiovisual narratives through the interconnected dimensions of text, context, and perspective to uncover the ways religious representations produce and legitimize patriarchal forms of authority. The analysis indicates that the series reinforces patriarchal ideology by depicting male characters as the primary holders of religious legitimacy, moral authority, and social dominance, while simultaneously normalizing gender inequality through charismatic leadership, polygamous practices, and hierarchical family relationships. Viewed from the perspective of Engineer's hermeneutics of liberation, these portrayals reflect socio-cultural constructions rather than authentic Islamic teachings, as they are inconsistent with the fundamental Islamic principles of justice, equality, and respect for human dignity. The findings offer valuable insights for educators, media professionals, and researchers in critically assessing religious narratives in audiovisual media and in fostering gender-responsive religious literacy based on egalitarian Islamic principles. By applying Engineer's hermeneutics of liberation to the study of a contemporary Islamic television drama, this research contributes to the existing literature by illustrating how popular media serve as an important arena for challenging religious authority, reshaping gender relations, and encouraging the development of progressive Islamic discourse.
