Abstract

This study examines the integration of pesantren traditions with modern higher education at STAI As-Sunnah, an Islamic college in Indonesia. Employing a phenomenological approach, the research analyzes how this institution balances traditional values with contemporary educational demands. Key findings highlight STAI As-Sunnah's success in maintaining a focus on Arabic language learning and Islamic values while offering accredited study programs. However, the study also identifies discourses surrounding gender inclusivity, access to technology, and the balance between tradition and modernity. The study concludes that adopting more inclusive and adaptive approaches, such as blended learning, may help STAI As-Sunnah become an innovative model in Islamic higher education, contributing significantly to the development of Islamic education in Indonesia.

Abstract

This research explores community-based economic transformation through case studies of Pasar Yosomulyo Pelangi (Payungi) in Metro, Pasar Papringan in Temanggung, and Pasar Kamu in Deli Serdang. These three markets exemplify an alternative model of people-centered economic development grounded in the Pancadaya principles knowledge, sacrifice, movement, culture, and welfare—within a collective empowerment framework. The findings reveal that this approach not only enhances financial well-being but also fosters social solidarity, cultural revitalization, and ecological sustainability. Empowerment emerges through a praxis-based mechanism that integrates critical reflection and collective action, inspired by the emancipatory philosophies of Paulo Freire and Tan Malaka. In these market spaces, citizens act not only as economic agents but also as active learners and educators, cultivating agency, awareness, and alternative economic practices. Each site demonstrates localized strengths: Payungi excels in critical consciousness, transformative education, and multidimensional welfare; Papringan stands out for ecological awareness and innovative local currency systems; while Pasar Kamu contributes significantly to MSME empowerment and digital adaptation. This study contributes a novel theoretical framework Pancadaya Transformation for understanding community empowerment as an integrative process of economic, cultural, educational, and ecological development. It advances the discourse on alternative development by demonstrating how grassroots market spaces can function as educational arenas, cultural incubators, and engines of equitable growth. As such, Pancadaya offers a replicable, value-driven model for sustainable economic transformation rooted in local wisdom and participatory action, particularly relevant for the Indonesian context and other Global South settings.

Abstract

This research explores the foundational principles and ethical framework of Islamic economics as a distinct paradigm from conventional economic systems. Anchored in Islamic legal and moral philosophy, the study examines core concepts such as the prohibition of Riba (interest), the obligation of zakat (almsgiving), the avoidance of Gharar (excessive uncertainty), and the requirement for halal (permissible) transactions. Using a qualitative content analysis approach, the research draws on instructional material to identify how these principles are articulated and positioned within Islamic economic thought. The analysis reveals that Islamic economics is not merely a financial model but a value-based system emphasizing justice, social welfare, and divine accountability. Unlike conventional economics, which prioritizes utility maximization and market efficiency, Islamic economics centers on moral responsibility, risk-sharing, and ethical profit. The findings highlight the potential of Islamic economics to address contemporary issues such as inequality and unsustainable growth. This study contributes to the literature by offering a structured interpretation of Islamic economics grounded in scriptural sources and pedagogical content. Its originality lies in clarifying the ethical-spiritual foundation of Islamic economics and its relevance in modern discourse on sustainable and equitable economic systems.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the implementation of an innovative approach in Islamic religious education learning as a strategy to foster students' affective competence. This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study type. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews, classroom observations, and documentation of student activities. The results of the study indicate that innovative approaches such as project-based learning, reflection through digital media, and social case discussions are effective in fostering values such as empathy, honesty, responsibility, and social awareness in students. The role of teachers as value facilitators greatly influences the success of affective internalization, which is also reflected in increased student participation in social and worship activities. Documentation shows a real behavioral transformation in the school environment. This study provides a theoretical implication to the development of experience-based and contextual affective education, as well as being a practical reference for Islamic religious education teachers in designing learning strategies that touch the emotional realm of students. In addition, this study expands the discourse on character education in the context of vocational schools, which has so far been under-touched in similar research.

Abstract

This paper aims to examine the imperfect status of ownership in the distribution of common property (gono-gini) from the perspective of Islamic law and positive Indonesian law, especially in the context of assets that are still pledged or have not been paid off. This problem becomes particularly relevant considering the number of married couples who acquire assets in the form of credit during their marriage period. This study employs a normative juridical method with a comparative approach, analyzing the norms of Islamic law, the Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI), and the Supreme Court Circular Letter (SEMA) No. 3 of 2018, and comparing them with judicial practices in religious courts. The results show that positive legal approaches that emphasize formal ownership tend to overlook each party's actual contribution in acquiring property, thereby risking the creation of injustice. On the contrary, the principle of substantive justice in Islamic law provides room for recognizing real contributions through conditional apportionment mechanisms and proportional assessments that are more adaptable to the socio-economic dynamics of households.

Abstract

The development of students' character is an important aspect in Islamic boarding school education which aims to form independent, disciplined, and noble individuals. Manbaul Ulum Islamic Boarding School applies various strategies in building students' character through habituation programs, role models, and extracurricular activities. This study aims to analyze the management of the student character development program at Manbaul Ulum Islamic Boarding School, including strategies, challenges, and their impact on students' independence. This study uses a qualitative method with a case study approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with the boarding school caretaker, ustadz, and students, direct observation, and documentation. Data analysis was carried out using data reduction techniques, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the study indicate that the management of the character development program at Manbaul Ulum Islamic Boarding School is carried out systematically through careful planning. The role model method and mentoring system are the main strategies in forming students' character. However, there are obstacles such as limited resources, differences in students' backgrounds, and a less than optimal evaluation system. The implications of this study indicate that the success of the character development program for students depends on the synergy between Islamic boarding school managers, educators, and the social environment of this Islamic boarding school. The contribution of this research is to provide an empirical description and theoretical basis for designing an integrative and adaptive Islamic boarding school character development program to the challenges of the times.

Abstract

This study investigates the policy dynamics and institutional mechanisms guiding capacity building in Ethiopia’s higher education within the framework of internationalisation and quality assurance. Drawing on a qualitative document review approach, the research analysed government policies, institutional strategies, and accreditation reports to assess how national directives align with global trends in higher education reform. The findings indicate that Ethiopian education policy increasingly incorporates internationalisation goals, such as academic mobility, collaborative research, curriculum benchmarking, and global quality standards. Strategic plans also highlight the importance of institutional autonomy and contextual relevance in Islamic education delivery. Despite this, the study reveals persistent challenges, including inadequate financial support, coordination gaps between agencies, and limited institutional readiness—especially among faith-based universities. Empirical evidence, including national audit reports and academic performance records, points to modest growth in faculty qualifications and research output in recent years, although progress varies across institutions. Thematic analysis suggests that while policy aspirations are clear, the operationalisation of these ambitions remains uneven and highly dependent on external funding and technical assistance. Moreover, the regulatory environment lacks specificity in addressing the dual demands of religious identity and global competitiveness. This paper contributes to ongoing debates on harmonising Islamic education with international academic standards in the Global South. It offers policy-level recommendations to strengthen institutional governance, resource mobilisation, and inter-agency collaboration. Ultimately, the study encourages rethinking capacity building not only as institutional enhancement but also as a culturally grounded and globally oriented transformation process in higher education systems.
