Abstract

This study aims to explore the application of a multicultural approach in Islamic education as an effort to increase tolerance among students. In the midst of cultural, ethnic, and religious diversity in Indonesia, Islamic education is faced with the challenge of not only forming a religiously devout person, but also respecting differences and living in harmony in a pluralistic society. This study uses a qualitative method with a literature study approach. Data were collected through observation and analysis of documents, then analyzed qualitatively to identify patterns of application of multicultural values in the curriculum, teaching, and social interaction in schools. The results of the study show that a multicultural approach in Islamic education can strengthen the attitude of tolerance among students. The implementation of values such as respect for diversity, empathy, and cross-cultural dialogue in the teaching and learning process has been proven to be able to reduce prejudice and increase cooperation between groups. However, the success of this approach is highly dependent on teacher commitment and support from educational institutions and inclusive education policies. Therefore, it is recommended that Islamic educational institutions integrate a more systematic multicultural approach in their curriculum to create a more tolerant and harmonious educational environment.

Abstract

This research aims to explore and identify innovations in the Islamic education curriculum in the digital era, focusing on the challenges and opportunities faced in its implementation. The development of digital technology has brought significant changes to the world of education, including Islamic education. This study uses a qualitative approach with a literature study method. The results of the study show that innovations in the Islamic education curriculum in the digital era must include the integration of technology that is in line with Islamic values, the development of digital competencies for educators, and the update of the curriculum that is flexible and adaptive to technological changes. The study also found that despite significant challenges, such as resistance to change and limited resources, the opportunities to improve the quality of Islamic education through technology are enormous. With the right approach, digital technology can be used to enrich learning, expand access to education, and build a generation of digitally competent Muslims who are firm in Islamic values.

Abstract

Modernity, which is expected to shift the spiritual dimension, has actually given rise to a spiritual turn among educated urban communities. In Indonesia, the Qadiriyyah wa Naqsyabandiyyah (TQN) Suryalaya Order has demonstrated its ability to maintain and expand its base of followers from academics, professionals, and intellectuals. This study aims to analyze the dialectic of TQN Suryalaya's da'wah in responding to modern intellectual skepticism, examine the construction of the Sufi epistemology it developed, and explain the process of epistemic synthesis that occurs among educated urban students. The study used a qualitative approach with a hermeneutic phenomenological design within a critical-constructivist paradigm. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews, participant observation in dhikr assemblies and halaqahs, and analysis of primary documents in the form of TQN teachings and recordings of da'wah lectures. The analysis was conducted through thematic analysis and critical discourse analysis. The results show that intellectual skepticism towards Sufism encompasses epistemological, theological, and pragmatic dimensions. TQN Suryalaya builds a hierarchical Sufi epistemology through the concepts of 'ilm al-yaqin, 'ain al-yaqin, and haqq al-yaqin, which encourages the birth of integrative rationality as a synthesis between scientific reason and spiritual experience. This finding shows that TQN Suryalaya's da'wah develops a strategy of intellectualizing Sufism through epistemic dialogue with modernity and enriches the study of urban Sufism in Indonesia.

Abstract

Digital transformation has brought significant changes in various aspects of life, including the practice of Islamic philanthropy in the collection of zakat, infaq, sadaqah, and religious donations. One innovation developing in Indonesia is the use of the Quick Response Code Indonesian Standard (QRIS) as a means of digital transactions. This study aims to analyze the transformation of philanthropy in the digital era through the use of QRIS in the practice of almsgiving and religious donations at DT Peduli Garut Regency, with an emphasis on community behavior, changes in the culture of almsgiving, and communication patterns in digital philanthropy. This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study method at DT Peduli Garut Regency as a National Zakat Institution (LAZNAS) that implements QRIS in fundraising. Data were obtained through observation, in-depth interviews with institution managers, muzaki, and donors, documentation, and literature studies. Analysis was carried out through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, verification, and drawing conclusions. The results show that the use of QRIS provides convenience, speed, flexibility, security, and efficiency in donating without being limited by space and time. This technology expands access to donations, including for communities outside the region, while also supporting transparency, accountability, and traceability of funds because all transactions are recorded digitally. However, the digitalization of philanthropy also presents several challenges. Reduced direct interaction between amil (recipients of charity) and donors can impact social closeness and communication in philanthropic activities. Furthermore, the rapid digitalization of the almsgiving process can diminish the spiritual experience felt when donations are made in person. The digital literacy gap is also a barrier because people's ability to use payment technology is not yet evenly distributed. Thus, QRIS not only represents a technical change in philanthropic transactions but also demonstrates the social, cultural, communication, and spiritual transformation of almsgiving practices in the digital era.
