Abstract

This study explores the role of religious leadership in mobilizing community participation within the context of Islamic boarding schools ‘pondok pesantren’ in East Lombok, Indonesia. The focus is on understanding how the charisma and religious authority of tuan guru influence community engagement in the development and sustainability of these educational institutions. The significance of this research lies in addressing a gap in the literature regarding the interplay between religiosity and social participation in Islamic educational settings. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observations, and document analysis involving key stakeholders, including tuan guru, pesantren administrators, students, and local community members. This study is analyzed using Resource Mobilization Theory, which emphasizes both societal support and constraint of social movement phenomena. Findings show that tuan guru’s approach to leadership—grounded in Islamic values and humility—enabled him to navigate societal resistance, inspiring both material contributions such as land and building materials and non-material contributions such as voluntary labor and moral support. Furthermore, the deeply rooted tradition of gotong royong ‘mutual cooperation’ amplified collective efforts, sustaining the pesantren’s progress. This research contributes to the discourse on religious leadership by highlighting how charismatic and inclusive leadership can transform community dynamics and mobilize collective resources. These findings underscore the importance of integrating cultural and religious values in leadership practices for community development.

Abstract

The Indonesian nation is known as a pluralistic nation (religion, culture, language, customs). The plurality of the nation brings two consequences, namely strength, and conflict. Become a strength if the Indonesian people are able to accept pluralism, and becomes a conflict if they cannot accept pluralism. Of course, we all hope that this plurality will become the strength of the nation. Therefore, it is necessary to build the strength of this nation with its plurality. One of the efforts that can be done to build the strength of religious communities is to build an attitude of religious moderation. Efforts to build students’ religious moderation can be done in various ways, one of which is through problem-based learning. The purpose of this study is to reveal the problem-based learning of the Islamic Religion as an effort to build students’ religious moderation attitudes in public universities. The research method used is qualitative with a phenomenological approach and survey. The subjects of this study were Universitas Sarjanawiyata Tamansiswa students from the faculty of teacher training and education in the Islamic Religion course. Data is collected through observation, documentation, and questionnaires. The research was conducted by observing Islamic religious learning and strengthening it by studying learning documents. The results show that problem-based Islamic learning can shape students' religious moderation attitudes.

Abstract

This study examines the role of inclusive Islamic education in countering radicalism among university students, focusing on their understanding of the Raḥmatan lil ‘Ālamīn (IRA) values. The IRA concept promotes compassion, tolerance, and dialogue. These values serve as a potential ideological counterweight to extremism. Using a quantitative survey method, data from 369 students were analysed through Pearson's correlation to examine the relationship between inclusive Islamic values and radical tendencies. The results revealed that the majority of students had internalised IRA values, demonstrating high levels of positive attitudes across all four domains. Pearson's correlation analysis revealed a significant negative correlation (p < 0.01) between IRA values and radical inclinations. This suggests that students who embrace moderate Islamic ethics are less vulnerable to extremist ideologies. Notably, tolerance and democratic values exhibited the strongest inverse relationships with fanatical and radical attitudes. These findings emphasise the importance of incorporating inclusive Islamic values into higher education curricula as a preventive measure against ideological radicalisation. By fostering environments that emphasise peace, pluralism, and civic responsibility, educational institutions can play a key role in promoting moderation and resilience against extremism among young people.
