Abstract

Objective: This study aims to examine the role of educational play equipment (APE) in play-based learning to cultivate Islamic character in early childhood, especially mahabbah to the Prophet Muhammad. This study also provides a practical framework for the application of APE in Islamic PAUD. Theoretical framework:  This research is based on the theory of play-based learning and Islamic character education, which views directed play as a means of internalizing values. The conceptual framework used is the flow of "knowledge → affection → action" in the formation of children's religious character. Literature review:   Previous studies have shown that learning to play is effective for character development, but APE is generally still positioned as a supporting medium. Studies that specifically associate the type of APE with the growth of love for the Prophet are still limited. Methods: This study used a systematic literature review following the guidelines of PRISMA 2020. Of the 570 articles identified (2010–2025), 12 studies met the criteria and were analyzed through thematic narrative synthesis. Results: The results of the study identified four main mechanisms of APE, namely narrative-dialogical media, guided play, symbolic modeling, and multimodal reinforcement at home. This mechanism is related to the improvement of prosocial behavior, manners, religious attitudes, and children's love for the Prophet. Implications: These findings confirm the importance of APE as the main instrument in Islamic PAUD character education. Educators need to design and evaluate APE in a targeted manner to support the formation of children's Islamic attitudes and behaviors. Novelty: The novelty of this research lies in the placement of APE as the main pedagogical lever in fostering mahabbah to the Prophet. The study also offers a practical model of "knowledge → affection → action" that applies to educators.

Abstract

Objective: This study aims to analyze the role of integrating Islamic content in English learning to improve the readiness of prospective PIAUD teachers in accordance with the SDG 4 goals on quality education. Theoretical framework: The research is based on contextual learning theory and SDG 4, which emphasizes the importance of connecting learning materials with students' religious identities to improve global motivation and competence. Literature review:  The literature shows that English as a global lingua franca is often considered less relevant in the Islamic educational environment, so the integration of Islamic values is necessary to increase motivation and engagement in learning. Methods: The research used a qualitative approach with a case study design on third-semester students of PIAUD STAI Muhammadiyah Blora. Data were obtained through interviews, observations, and documentation, and then analyzed using the Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña models. Results: The integration of Islamic content increases interest, participation, and relevance of English learning and strengthens vocabulary and reading mastery. However, speaking skills are still low due to anxiety and fear of making mistakes. Implications: This approach supports the readiness of prospective teachers by integrating English language competencies and Islamic values. However, additional strategies are needed to improve students' speaking skills. Novelty: The novelty of the research lies in the study of the integration of Islamic content in English learning to support the readiness of prospective PIAUD teachers within the framework of SDG 4, which is still rarely researched in the context of Islamic education.
