<![CDATA[Objective: The study aims to reconstruct this paradigm as an integrated framework for Islamic higher education that combines spiritual commitment, intellectual excellence, and social responsibility. Theoretical framework: The theoretical framework is grounded in Islamic theology, prophetic education, and the classical concepts of al-‘ālim al-rabbānī and insān kāmil, emphasizing the inseparable relationship between faith, knowledge, and service. Literature review: Previous studies have extensively discussed KH. Hasyim Asy’ari’s educational philosophy, nationalism, and religious leadership; however, few have systematically conceptualized these dimensions into a coherent triadic paradigm or examined their institutional relevance for contemporary Islamic universities. Method: This research employs a qualitative library research approach using historical, theological, and philosophical analyses of KH. Hasyim Asy’ari’s writings, historical documents, and relevant scholarly literature. Results: The findings reveal that tawhid functions as the ontological and ethical foundation of human existence, knowledge serves as the means of cultivating intellectual integrity and moral character, while service represents the practical manifestation of both through dedication to the ummah, the nation, and humanity. Historically, this paradigm was embodied in KH. Hasyim Asy’ari’s establishment of Tebuireng Pesantren, leadership in Nahdlatul Ulama and other Islamic organizations, and his contribution to the 1945 Jihad Resolution. Implications: The study further demonstrates that this framework provides a comprehensive foundation for strengthening curriculum development, institutional culture, and the implementation of the Tridharma of Higher Education at UNHASY across diverse academic disciplines. Novelty: The research contributes a new conceptual model that integrates theological, epistemological, and social dimensions into a unified paradigm, offering an innovative reference for pesantren-based universities seeking to cultivate graduates who embody insān kāmil and effectively address the challenges of radicalism, sectarianism, and practical secularism in contemporary Indonesia.]]>
