Abstract

This study discusses the criteria for the halal product assurance system (SJPH) with a self-declaration mechanism in Indonesia from the perspective of George R. Terry's classical management functions. The background of the study is based on the importance of halal certification for micro and small enterprises (MSEs), as well as the existence of a self-declaration policy that allows business actors to declare the halal status of their products themselves. The purpose of the study is to analyze the criteria for the self-declaration SJPH based on BPJPH regulation Number 57/2023 using a management function framework (planning, organizing, directing, and controlling). This study uses a qualitative method with a library approach, through the study of national and international academic documents and literature related to halal certification and management theory. The results show that the self-declaration SJPH criteria include halal policies, a halal management team, raw material control, production procedures, training, internal audits, and reporting. From a management function perspective, these criteria are aligned with the principles of strategic planning, organizing resources, directing the workforce, and continuous quality control. The main implementation challenges are limited human resources, digital literacy, and financial capacity of MSEs, although opportunities for strengthening exist through institutional mentoring and market incentives. The theoretical contribution of this research is the expansion of management functions with a multi-actor coordination dimension, while its practical contribution is a roadmap for improving halal governance of MSEs in Indonesia.

Abstract

Learning motivation is one of the essential factors influencing the success of the Islamic Religious Education (PAI) learning process. Low student motivation is often caused by the use of less varied learning media that have not adapted to technological developments. This study aims to examine the improvement of students’ learning motivation through the use of Islamic educational YouTube media in PAI learning. This research employed a qualitative approach using a case study method conducted at SMAN 4 Tuban. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results indicate that the use of Islamic educational YouTube media can enhance students’ learning motivation, as reflected in increased attention, interest, active participation, and enthusiasm during PAI learning activities. Furthermore, Islamic educational YouTube media helps students understand the learning material in a more concrete and contextual manner. Therefore, the utilization of Islamic educational YouTube media can be considered an effective alternative learning medium to improve students’ learning motivation in PAI learning.

Abstract

Project-Based Learning (PjBL) has emerged as an innovative pedagogical model that emphasizes active student participation, authentic problem-solving, and the integration of knowledge through project-based tasks. Within the context of Islamic education, particularly in Fiqh learning, PjBL offers a transformative approach to bridging theoretical understanding and practical application of Islamic jurisprudence. This review study aims to analyze previous research findings on the effectiveness of PjBL in Fiqh instruction compared to conventional teaching methods. Employing a systematic literature review approach, relevant studies published between 2015 and 2025 were examined to identify patterns, challenges, and outcomes associated with the implementation of PjBL in Islamic educational institutions. The findings indicate that PjBL contributes significantly to improving students’ conceptual comprehension, critical thinking skills, and religious character formation. However, its effectiveness is influenced by contextual factors such as teacher competence, curriculum integration, and institutional support. This study concludes that PjBL serves as a pedagogical innovation capable of fostering holistic learning in Fiqh education while promoting 21st-century competencies and spiritual values.

Abstract

This study was motivated by the importance of early financial literacy in shaping economic character in accordance with Islamic values, especially for migrant children in informal educational settings where character development is often neglected. The purpose of this study was to examine the role of financial literacy as a catalyst in shaping the Islamic economic character of students at SB SIKL Cheras Malaysia. The method used was a qualitative case study approach with data collection techniques through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation, which were then analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model. The results showed that the application of financial literacy through the practical “Celengan Impian” (Dream Piggy Bank) program was effective in improving students' understanding of distinguishing between needs and wants and the principles of Islamic money management. In conclusion, financial literacy has proven to be a catalyst that successfully internalizes the values of honesty, responsibility, discipline, and qona'ah (modesty) in students' daily economic behavior. This program provides a strong foundation of economic ethics for students in informal educational environments.

Abstract

his study examines how religious and nationalist character formation is cultivated through school culture at SMP Mamba’us Sholihin Tuban, an Islamic junior high school in Indonesia. Moving beyond program-based character education, this research conceptualizes character formation as a sustained cultural process embedded in daily school practices, norms, symbols, and leadership models. Using a qualitative approach and case study, the data for this study were collected from the Principal, Vice Principal, Teachers, and Students of SMP Mambaus Sholihin Tuban, through in-depth interviews, document analysis, and observations of school activities. Data were processed using content analysis, presentation, and conclusion drawing, supported by triangulation of sources and techniques to ensure credibility. Interviews were conducted with school leaders and administrators, teachers, and students, and observations were conducted. Data were analyzed using qualitative methods validated through triangulation of sources and techniques, then interpreted based on selected theories. The findings reveal that religious and nationalist values are not treated as separate domains but are integrated within a cohesive school culture shaped by routine religious practices, civic rituals, teacher role modeling, and institutional regulations. This integration fosters students’ spiritual discipline, moral responsibility, and national commitment simultaneously. The study confirms the relevance of Character Education Theory and School Culture Theory in the Indonesian Islamic education context while demonstrating how local religious traditions and national identity discourses interact constructively. The research contributes to the growing discourse on religious–nationalist character formation by offering an empirically grounded model of culturally embedded character education that may inform policy and practice in Islamic schooling contexts.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the challenges of the digital era and examine innovative Aqidah Akhlak learning strategies in strengthening students’ religious character at MAN 1 Tuban. The digital era presents both opportunities and challenges for Islamic education. While digital technology enables more engaging learning processes, it also poses serious challenges, such as social media addiction, low digital literacy, behavioral changes, and unequal access to technology, which may weaken students’ religious values. This research employs a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data were collected through non-participant observation, semi-structured interviews with teachers, students, school leaders, and parents, as well as relevant documentation. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis, with validity ensured through the triangulation of sources and methods. The findings reveal that the primary challenges in strengthening students’ religious character include the excessive use of social media, a decline in the quality of worship, a limited ability to critically assess religious information, and reduced social interaction. To address these challenges, MAN 1 Tuban implements innovative Aqidah Akhlak learning through interactive digital media, active learning methods, curriculum integration, teacher competency development, and collaboration with parents and the community. These innovations play a significant role in reinforcing students’ religious character, particularly in fostering discipline in worship, religious attitudes, responsibility, and moral integrity amid the rapid flow of digital culture.   Keywords: Aqidah Akhlak, Digital Era, Learning Innovation, MAN 1 Tuban, Religious Character

Abstract

Abstract: Prologue: Halal branding in Indonesia has evolved beyond a religious requirement into a complex arena where spiritual authenticity intersects with market commodification. While intended to embody ethical compliance, the proliferation of halal labels among the expanding Muslim middle class has transformed "halal" into a competitive economic signifier. Despite extensive studies on consumer behavior, limited research critically examines the multipolar contestation among state authority, religious scholars, and market actors over how to navigate the tension between substantive religiosity and symbolic capital. Objective: This study aims to conceptualize the paradox of halal branding as a "hybridization" of religious, identity, and economic dimensions. It seeks to examine how this contestation shapes branding practices in Indonesia and evaluate its impact on religious sincerity through the lens of Maqāṣid al-Sharī‘ah. Methods: The research employs a qualitative approach combining an interdisciplinary literature review with field observations. Empirical data were gathered through the researcher's direct involvement in assisting Micro and Small Enterprises (MSEs) in the "SEHATI" (Sertifikat Halal Gratis; Free Halal Certification) program across Central and East Java (Semarang, Tuban, and Bojonegoro). The study utilizes a political economy of Islamic consumption framework, analyzed through reflexive thematic analysis, to map the shifting authority from the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) to the state (BPJPH) and its implications for market dynamics. Results/Findings: The findings demonstrate that halal branding in Indonesia operates through a "dual movement": the moralization of markets and the marketization of morality. Results indicate that while state-led certification (BPJPH) has democratized market access for MSEs, it has also triggered a contestation over "epistemic authority" between the state and the ulama. The study identifies that successful branding—exemplified by the cosmetics and tourism sectors—relies on a synergy in which religious values, modern identity, and economic logic reinforce one another. However, a significant paradox remains: the dominance of market rationality often leads to a "shallowing of meaning," where the halal label risks becoming a mere commodity, potentially displacing the substance of spiritual values. Contribution: This study enriches the sociology of religion and Islamic political economy by applying Abdul Majid an-Najjar's framework of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah—specifically ḥifẓ al-mujtama' (protecting society) and ḥifẓ al-kiyān al-insānī (protecting human existence)—to evaluate market ethics. It proposes a balanced branding model that integrates institutional transparency with a religious narrative, providing a strategic framework for policymakers and businesses to ensure that halal branding enhances substantive religiosity rather than merely facilitating the commercialization of Islamic identity.
