Abstract

This study investigates the primary challenges and potential solutions in the religious guidance of converts (muallaf) in Tanjung Beringin Village, Tanah Karo, North Sumatra. Utilizing a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, field observations, and documentation. This study showed that the absence of continuous religious guidance, combined with the lack of permanent da’i, has weakened the religious understanding and enthusiasm among the converts. Additionally, parental neglect in supporting their children's religious education exacerbates this issue. The study proposes several solutions, including establishing collaborations with Islamic organizations and da'wah institutions to provide alternating da’i, appointing permanent Islamic religious instructors, revitalizing basic Islamic studies, and enhancing parental involvement in religious education. These measures aim to strengthen the religious identity and resilience of the convert community against external influences.

Abstract

Students, as agents of change, play a significant role in instilling Islamic values and tolerance in a diverse society. One of the ways to implement these values is through the Student Creativity Week, which involves various educational, innovative, and collaborative activities. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Student Creativity Week in realizing Islamic values and tolerance in Manik Maraja Village. The research uses a descriptive qualitative approach, involving the community participatively in the planning, implementation, and evaluation stages. The results show that the Student Creativity Week successfully enhanced religious understanding among the youth, strengthened social solidarity, and fostered an inclusive attitude among residents. This program proved to be effective in building harmonious relationships among villagers and creating a more tolerant environment. Therefore, the Student Creativity Week program can be a collaborative community service model, with potential to be replicated in other villages to achieve sustainable social harmony.

Abstract

Zakat has great potential to become one of the main instruments in poverty alleviation efforts. Zakat is one of the pillars of Islam, so normatively it is an absolute obligation for every Muslim. The purpose of this research is to find out how zakat is distributed by the Batu Bara Regency National Zakat Amil Agency in its efforts to eradicate poverty, as well as identify factors that support and hinder the distribution of zakat. This research uses a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data collection methods are observation, interviews, and documentation, using primary and secondary data. There were 5 informants in this study. The data analysis techniques used are data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion verification. Source triangulation ensures the validity of the data used in this research. Based on research results, Baznas, Batu Bara Regency routinely distributes zakat funds every year using two main approaches, namely consumptive zakat and productive zakat, to overcome poverty. Through the Smart, Healthy, Pious and Caring Batu Bara Program, consumptive zakat is distributed to meet the basic needs of mustahik. Meanwhile, the Batu Bara Makmur Program is a productive zakat distribution program that empowers zakat recipients to be economically independent. However, poverty alleviation efforts could be more optimal because a larger proportion of zakat fund distribution occurs through consumptive zakat. Limited human resources cause a lack of supervision of zakat recipients, so the efforts made by productive zakat recipients last only a short time.

Abstract

The implementation of Islamic law in Aceh has been formally enforced for more than two decades, yet its image remains dominated by negative public perceptions. In fact, the enforcement of Islamic law in Aceh is necessary for the Acehnese people, who have undergone a long, dynamic process between Aceh and the central government. This study aims to analyze the branding of the image of Islamic law in Aceh to formulate effective communication strategies to support the strengthening of its implementation. This study uses a mixed-method approach, combining a quantitative survey to capture public perceptions with a qualitative approach through in-depth interviews and focus group discussions. Berger and Luckmann’s social construction theory serves as an analytical framework for understanding the process of forming and negotiating the meaning of Islamic Sharia. The results of the study show that negative perceptions of Islamic Sharia are influenced by weak coordination between institutions, inequality in law enforcement, and resistance from some community groups. However, it was also found that local culture plays a vital role in internalizing the values of Sharia and strengthening its positive image as the religious and cultural identity of the Acehnese people.

Abstract

Generation Z is known as a generation that is highly connected to technology and tends to adopt a fast-paced lifestyle. These habits often lead to a consumptive lifestyle and poor long-term financial planning. To respond to this phenomenon, students through the Community Service Program (KKN) conducted financial education activities in Manikmaraja Village, Simalungun Regency. This activity involved YPI Dharma Budi High School students and the local youth community. The program used a descriptive qualitative approach, which included outreach, workshops, interactive discussions, and evaluations. The results of this activity showed an increase in participants' knowledge of financial literacy, appreciation of the importance of saving, and ability to prepare a basic budget. This program demonstrated that incorporating financial literacy into daily life planning can help individuals become more independent and aware of the importance of financial management. Overall, this activity successfully increased financial literacy among the younger generation in the village.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis strategi BKM Jami’ Sabilillah dalam meningkatkan partisipasi pemuda serta kontribusinya untuk mewujudkan kondusivitas masyarakat Desa Kutomulyo. Masjid sebagai institusi keagamaan tidak hanya berfungsi sebagai tempat ibadah, tetapi juga sebagai pusat pendidikan, sosial, dan pemberdayaan masyarakat. Dalam konteks tersebut, BKM memiliki peran strategis dalam merancang dan melaksanakan program yang mampu melibatkan generasi muda secara aktif. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif dengan lokasi penelitian di Desa Kutomulyo pada bulan Januari sampai Februari 2026. Informan penelitian dipilih secara purposive, meliputi pengurus BKM, tokoh masyarakat, pemuda yang terlibat, dan masyarakat sekitar. Data dikumpulkan melalui observasi, wawancara mendalam, dan dokumentasi, kemudian dianalisis menggunakan model interaktif melalui reduksi data, penyajian data, dan penarikan kesimpulan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa strategi BKM Jami’ Sabilillah meliputi kegiatan keagamaan, sosial, dan kepemudaan yang dirancang secara sistematis untuk meningkatkan keterlibatan pemuda. Bentuk partisipasi pemuda terlihat dalam partisipasi tenaga, pikiran, dan sosial, meskipun tingkat keterlibatannya belum sepenuhnya merata. Untuk meningkatkan partisipasi tersebut, BKM menerapkan strategi berupa pemberian ruang kepemimpinan kepada pemuda, pelibatan dalam musyawarah, penyelenggaraan kegiatan yang sesuai dengan minat generasi muda, serta pendekatan persuasif dan kekeluargaan. Strategi tersebut terbukti memberikan kontribusi positif terhadap kondusivitas masyarakat, yang ditandai dengan meningkatnya solidaritas sosial, berkurangnya aktivitas negatif pemuda, serta terjalinnya hubungan yang lebih harmonis antarwarga. Dengan demikian, strategi BKM Jami’ Sabilillah berperan penting tidak hanya dalam pembinaan keagamaan, tetapi juga dalam pemberdayaan pemuda dan penciptaan masyarakat yang aman, tertib, dan harmonis.

Abstract

Digital advances have revolutionised communication patterns and the formation of opinion, including perceptions of Islamic law. In Aceh, which has formally implemented Islamic law for over 23 years, the dynamics of online media reporting have become a crucial factor in shaping its image and the construction of religious identity. This article analyses the role of Serambinews.com in framing news coverage about Islamic law in Aceh. From 9 articles found via a search using the keyword “Syariat Islam” on the site, 7 articles met the inclusion criteria as factual news reports and were analysed using Entman’s framing model (problem definition, causal interpretation, moral evaluation, treatment recommendation). The seven articles were purposely selected from the period of November 2024. This period was chosen based on the intensity of reporting related to the evaluation of sharia implementation after more than 23 years. While existing studies have discussed media representation of Islamic law in Indonesia, limited attention has been paid to how local online media in Aceh construct framing that legitimizes sharia enforcement. This study specifically addresses that gap by offering a systematic framing analysis of Serambinews.com. The results indicate that Serambinews.com consistently frames Islamic law as a solution for moral and social order. The legitimacy of its implementation is affirmed through narratives highlighting broad public support, claims of tolerance from interfaith figures, and institutional collaboration with educational bodies. The reporting tends to present a singular narrative without critical views, which contributes to the discursive construction of Sharia as a legitimate public norm in Aceh. However, given the limited empirical scope (seven articles from one outlet over one month) these findings should be interpreted with caution and are not generalizable to all local media in Aceh.

Abstract

Perceraian pada pernikahan usia dini merupakan salah satu permasalahan sosial yang berdampak terhadap kehidupan keluarga dan masyarakat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis faktor-faktor penyebab perceraian pada pernikahan usia dini serta mengkaji solusi bimbingan dan penyuluhan Islam dalam meminimalisasi kasus perceraian. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan deskriptif. Data diperoleh melalui wawancara, observasi, dan dokumentasi terhadap 5 informan yang terdiri atas 1 staf Kantor Urusan Agama (KUA), 1 tokoh agama sekaligus kepala dusun, serta 3 individu yang mengalami perceraian pada pernikahan usia dini. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa faktor penyebab perceraian pada pernikahan usia dini di Desa Sambirejo Timur meliputi masalah ekonomi, ketidaksiapan mental dan emosional, serta perselingkuhan. Faktor-faktor tersebut muncul karena pasangan belum memiliki kesiapan yang memadai dalam menghadapi tuntutan kehidupan rumah tangga. Penelitian ini juga menemukan bahwa bimbingan dan penyuluhan Islam melalui bimbingan pranikah, konseling keluarga, penyuluhan keagamaan, dan mediasi yang dilakukan oleh penyuluh agama serta pihak KUA berperan dalam membantu pasangan menyelesaikan konflik rumah tangga dan mencegah terjadinya perceraian. Dengan demikian, bimbingan dan penyuluhan Islam dapat menjadi salah satu upaya preventif dan kuratif dalam memperkuat ketahanan keluarga pada pasangan usia dini.

Abstract

The state of the younger generation presents a considerable challenge in terms of a good understanding of the fiqh of marriage. Many of them are influenced by cultural circumstances and lack a strong foundation. This study aims to explore the challenges faced by the Binjai City Nikah Clinic in carrying out marriage proselytization to the younger generation, as well as identifying strategies and solutions implemented to overcome these challenges. This research is a field research using qualitative methods with in-depth interviews with Nikah Clinic managers and program participants. The findings show that the main challenges faced include a lack of understanding about marriage education, changes in social values that are more liberal, and the influence of secular and materialistic views that are getting stronger. In addition, there is a tendency among the younger generation to postpone marriage. To overcome these challenges, the Marriage Clinic implemented several strategies, including improving the quality and relevance of programs such as pre-marital lectures that focus on mental and emotional readiness, as well as organizing seminars and workshops that teach practical skills in managing home life. The Marriage Clinic also applies a more personalized approach of mentoring and small group discussions, and invites the community to be more involved in da'wah and marriage education. The effectiveness of these strategies is evident in the participants' increased understanding of the importance of marriage readiness, although major challenges remain in relation to the habits and views of the younger generation towards marriage.
