Abstract

Quran teachers play a crucial role in preserving and disseminating Islamic religious knowledge. This profession faces a dilemma between devotion to the ummah and the demands of modern professionalism. This study aims to analyze the role, challenges, and prospects of Quran teachers in contemporary social and economic contexts. A qualitative method with a phenomenological approach was chosen for this research. Data were collected from one hundred and five Quran teachers selected through purposive sampling and analyzed thematically using NVivo 12 software. The results indicate that, while the role of a Quran teacher is still regarded as noble and meaningful, practitioners encounter economic difficulties and lack social recognition. Therefore, strategies are needed to enhance the quality and professionalism of Quran teachers and to strengthen their role in society. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of the role of Quran teachers and its implications for the development of Islamic society.

Abstract

Quranic education is a crucial aspect of shaping the identity and values of Muslim societies. However, Muslim-majority countries face various challenges in providing high-quality Quranic education. This study aims to analyze the problems related to Quranic education in these countries. The research employed a qualitative method with a case study approach in several majority-Muslim countries. Data were collected through interviews with Quranic education experts, teachers, and students, as well as through document and literature analysis. All data were analyzed using Miles and Huberman's interactive analysis technique with NVivo 12 software. The research findings indicate that the challenges in Quranic education include the absence of legislation governing the Quranic teaching profession, limited availability of qualified teachers, low competence in instructional management, the fact that not all Quran teachers possess a bachelor's degree in Quranic education, insufficient professional development due to a lack of continuous training, the profession's lack of appeal to Islamic scholars because it does not promise a future career, and inadequate teacher compensation. The findings underscore the importance of implementing systematic and strategic improvements to enhance the quality of Quranic education.

Abstract

Hirfah (occupation) is one of the criteria for kafa’ah (compatibility) in marriage according to most schools of Islamic thought. However, the Maliki school of thought does not consider Hirfah essential for kafa’ah. According to Maliki scholars, occupation does not impact the benefit or validity of a marriage. This study aims to analyze the Maliki perspective on Hirfah as a criterion for kafa’ah and its implications for marital benefit. This research uses a qualitative approach with content analysis, this research explores the Maliki school’s stance on kafa’ah criteria in depth. The findings indicate that the Maliki school does not include Hirfah as a criterion for kafa’ah, emphasizing instead that religious compatibility is the principal factor. This position is influenced by the cultural context of Imam Malik’s time, when women’s employment was uncommon. However, in contemporary contexts, many women work prior to marriage, which affects their socioeconomic status and, consequently, community perspectives. This shift has led Hirfah to be increasingly viewed as a relevant factor in assessing kafa’ah and the benefit of marriage today.
