Abstract

The growing urgency of gender equality issues in Islam, which often conflict with textual interpretations of classical fiqh texts such as Fath al-Muin and I’anah al-Thalibin. Pesantrens, as traditional Islamic educational institutions, have the potential to become spaces for reinterpreting these texts in response to contemporary challenges. This study aims to explore how Pesantren Ma’had Darul Ikhlas in Mandailing Natal reinterprets classical fiqh by integrating local values, particularly the matrilineal culture that places women in a central role. The research employs a qualitative approach using ethnographic techniques and textual analysis, involving participant observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The findings reveal that the reinterpretation of classical fiqh is carried out through negotiations between the pesantren’s scholarly traditions, local culture, and modern social realities. For instance, the principle of justice in QS An-Nisa: 7 is used to support more inclusive inheritance practices for women, while the concept of qiwamah is understood as shared responsibility rather than male dominance. However, this reinterpretation still faces resistance from conservative groups and is hindered by the scarcity of progressive literature. The contribution of this research lies in its effort to enrich the discourse on the reinterpretation of fiqh in Islam by highlighting the flexibility of pesantrens in addressing modern challenges. Practically, these findings can serve as a reference for other pesantrens to open discussions on gender equality without abandoning their scholarly traditions.

Abstract

This study investigates the potential of Pesantren Darussalam Parmeraan, North Sumatra, to foster disaster resilience by integrating Sendai Framework’s disaster risk reduction (DRR) principles into its Islamic education curriculum. Situated in a forested area near a river, the pesantren faces flood and landslide risks. Employing a qualitative approach with case study, data were sourced from curriculum documents (akhlak, fiqh, tafsir), santri guidelines, activity records (gotong royong, tree planting, water management), and semi-structured interviews with the kiai, ustaz, and santri. Data were collected through document reviews and interviews, analyzed following Miles and Huberman (1994) via data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing to identify DRR elements. Findings reveal traces of DRR in local practices and Islamic values (amanah, tawakkal, solidarity), aligning with Sendai’s risk understanding, governance, resilience investment, and preparedness. However, gaps such as the absence of evacuation training, fragmented risk knowledge, and limited external collaboration hinder effectiveness. Proposed modules—“Environmental Akhlak,” “Disaster Fiqh,” and ikhtiar-based simulations—integrate disaster science with spirituality, strengthening isolated community resilience. This study offers a faith-based DRR model, contributing to Sustainable Development Goals (SDG 4, 13) and global literature.

Abstract

This study examines the implementation of millennial fiqh in madrasahs in Mandailing Natal, Indonesia, to bridge Islamic tradition and digital modernity for Generation Z. Adopting a qualitative case study design, data were collected from three accredited madrasahs (A, B, and C) through in-depth interviews with principals, fiqh teachers, and students, participatory observations in classrooms and digital environments, and analysis of curriculum documents and teaching materials. Data validity was ensured through triangulation of sources (comparing perspectives of teachers, students, and documents), methods (integrating interviews, observations, and document analysis), and theories (referencing maqashid sharia and digital education frameworks). Thematic analysis, based on Miles and Huberman’s model, identified patterns of challenges and opportunities. Findings indicate that millennial fiqh implementation is hindered by normative curricula focused on classical fiqh, limited teacher capacity in digital issues, inadequate technological infrastructure, dominant traditional values, and negative social media influences, such as hate speech and cyberbullying. However, significant opportunities arise from students’ enthusiasm for contemporary fiqh, teachers’ openness to innovation, and technology’s potential as an interactive learning medium. The proposed millennial fiqh curriculum model integrates maqashid sharia principles into social media ethics, contemporary fatwas on digital transactions, and real-world case studies. This model enhances students’ digital ethics awareness, teachers’ pedagogical skills, and madrasahs’ adaptability. Theoretically, millennial fiqh enriches contemporary Islamic education, supporting Sustainable Development Goals for inclusive education with substantial local and global implications.

Abstract

This study explores the impact of high classroom density on female students (santriwati) at Pesantren Musthafawiyah in North Sumatra, focusing on a population of 4,598 santriwati distributed across 77 classrooms (60 students per class). Employing a qualitative phenomenological approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis involving 18 participants. The findings reveal three major impacts. First, overcrowded spaces cause physical and psychological discomfort, such as fatigue and difficulty concentrating, due to poor ventilation and excessive noise. Second, overcrowding erases the identity of santriwati, silencing their voices and deepening isolation within unequal gender dynamics. Third, although santriwati demonstrate resilience through strategies like self-directed learning, this resilience remains fragile, marked by declining academic performance and motivation as a result of sustained pressure. This research highlights that classroom overcrowding not only impedes learning but also threatens the well-being of santriwati, challenging the essence of inclusive Islamic education. It is recommended that reforms in facilities and classroom management be implemented to create a supportive learning environment. This study contributes new insights to the discourse on gender-based education in Islamic boarding schools (pesantren), emphasizing the urgency of structural changes for the empowerment of santriwati.

Abstract

This study aims to examine how fiqh munakahat is taught in pesantren (Islamic boarding schools) and its implications for gender understanding and women’s rights in marriage. The research focuses on three pesantren in Mandailing Natal: Ma’had Darul Ikhlas, Pesantren Roihanul Jannah, and Ma’had Darul Ulum Muara Mais. Employing a qualitative approach with a multisite case study design, data were collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews, and document analysis. The findings reveal that the teaching of fiqh munakahat in these pesantren is still predominantly influenced by traditional interpretations, which tend to be patriarchal, with minimal discussion on women's rights. However, amidst this dominant narrative, seeds of transformation are emerging, particularly among the younger generation of pesantren students who are beginning to embrace progressive perspectives on gender. Resistance to modernity, limited intellectual capacity among instructors, and the influence of local culture present significant challenges to promoting gender equality. Nevertheless, advancements in information technology and the growing critical awareness among santri (students) offer substantial opportunities for reform. This study underscores the urgency for pesantren to incorporate gender perspectives into the fiqh munakahat curriculum as a step toward justice and equality. The research contributes to the literature on gender in Islam and pesantren education as agents of social transformation

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the potential of social media as an instrument for Islamic moral education in Indonesia, a context with 167 million internet users and 77% internet penetration in 2023, to transcend the traditional role of mosques. Employing a qualitative methodology through a multiple case study design, data were collected via semi-structured interviews with 30 informants aged 15–35 years in North Sumatra, selected through purposive sampling, alongside content analysis of 150 posts on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube, validated using source triangulation. The findings reveal that digital formats such as short videos (averaging 50,000 views), infographics (32,000 views), and Islamic challenges (#challengeislami, 450 posts) are effective in internalizing moral values, supported by interactivity and wide reach. However, religious hoaxes (12% of the sample) and secular distractions pose challenges to the sustainability of impact. The study proposes a model based on the synthesis of Al-Ghazali’s and Bandura’s theories, emphasizing interactive and personalized content, with implications for digital literacy training for educators and content regulation

Abstract

This research explores the implications of integrating artificial intelligence (AI) into Islamic Religious Education (PAI) in the post-human era, focusing on the transformation of spirituality and pedagogical approaches. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and digital content analysis involving 15 students, 10 PAI teachers, and 5 IT teachers from three Islamic high schools in North Sumatra. The findings indicate that AI enhances access to religious knowledge and stimulates critical reflection, but also creates emotional distance, spiritual narrative fragmentation, and theological oversimplification. Students experience religious hybridity, integrating technological logic with Islamic values, while teachers are polarized between adaptation and resistance. Ontologically, AI emerges as a new mediator in humanity's relationship with the transcendent, challenging the authenticity of spirituality. Pedagogically, AI offers the potential for modern relevance but demands curriculum revisions and teacher training. This study concludes that post-human PAI can enrich transformative spirituality through a synthesis of tradition and innovation, provided it is supported by contextually designed technology and theological collaboration, recommending a balanced learning approach for the future of PAI in the AI era

Abstract

This study investigates the mental health challenges faced by santri (Islamic boarding school students) in pesantren at Mandailing Natal, alongside the effectiveness of spiritual practices and Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) as coping mechanisms. Employing a mixed-methods approach, quantitative data from 200 active santri were analyzed using the Depression Anxiety Stress Scales (DASS-21), complemented by qualitative interviews with santri and ustadz (religious teachers). Findings reveal that female santri and those in grades 4–6 exhibited greater vulnerability compared to male santri and those in tsanawiyah (junior secondary) levels (p<0.05). Grade 4 marked a significant increase in mental health challenges. Salaf (traditional pesantren) reported higher anxiety levels (Mean=16.24, SD=10.87, p=0.041) compared to semi-modern institutions. Regular spiritual practices were found to reduce depression, though they proved less effective for drop-out santri facing modern pressures. SEL demonstrated potential in mitigating anxiety (OR=0.62, p=0.038, CI=0.39–0.98), with 80% of ustadz expressing support despite concerns over secularization. Integrating spirituality and SEL is recommended to holistically support santri's well-being within a modern context.

Abstract

Ulama play a crucial role as agents of social control through their knowledge and leadership in society. In the Mandailing region, the presence of Ulama is significant and has contributed meaningfully to the development of Islamic scholarship in the archipelago. Among them, three prominent figures, Shaykh Abdul Halim Khatib, Shaykh Syihabuddin, and Shaykh Abdul Qadir Bin Shabir, stand out with intellectual capacities comparable to other renowned Nusantara Ulama. This study aims to analyze their scientific networks and intellectual social constructions. Using a qualitative approach and library research methods, including documentation and content analysis, the research explores the underlying patterns of their scholarly engagement. Findings show that Mandailing Ulama focuses more on community movements than written scholarship. This is largely because the local society values Ulama as religious scholars and traditional and social leaders. Their active involvement in communal life limits the time and opportunity for writing. Nonetheless, the intellectual focus of these three Ulama centers on fundamental Islamic theology, particularly the 20 attributes of Allah (sifat 20). Shaykh Syihabuddin is especially noted for his contribution to the Naqshbandiyyah Sufi order, which he elaborates in his book Fath al-Qalb. This work extends beyond theoretical insights into practical spirituality. Similarly, Shaykh Abdul Halim Khatib was deeply engaged in Sufi practice and reportedly taught such knowledge at the Mustafawiyah Pesantren. The three Ulama exemplify a blend of spiritual leadership and theological scholarship rooted in the Mandailing context.

Abstract

This research examines the existence of Islamic Law and Customary Law in Indonesia's national legal system which reflects legal pluralism in a country with high cultural and religious diversity. The purpose of the research is to explore the role and integration of Islamic Law and Customary Law within the national legal framework, particularly in the context of the application of sharia principles and the recognition of customary law communities. This research utilizes a qualitative descriptive method with analysis of documents, legal literature, and relevant legislation, as well as a historical approach to understand theories of legal acceptance such as Receptie and Receptie in Complexu. The results of the analysis show that Islamic Law has gained significant legitimacy, especially through the Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI) which regulates family law and inheritance. Meanwhile, Customary Law is also recognized in Article 18B of the 1945 Constitution as an important part of the national legal system, although its implementation faces modernization challenges. This research finds that the interaction between these two legal systems produces not only challenges but also opportunities to build a national law that is adaptive and responsive to the needs of society. Thenovelty of this research lies in the comprehensive analysis of the dynamics of harmonization of Islamic Law and Customary Law amidst the social and political complexities in Indonesia. This research emphasizes the importance of an inclusive and contextual approach in building a just and sustainable legal system, which accommodates local religious and cultural values.
