Abstract

Kepemimpinan pesantren tidak hanya menuntut kemampuan manajerial, tetapi juga integritas spiritual dan karakter yang kuat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis integrasi kepemimpinan spiritual dan dimensi kepribadian Big Five—yakni neuroticism, extraversion, openness, agreeableness, dan conscientiousness—dalam kepemimpinan Kiai Fawaid As’ad (1968–2012) di Pondok Pesantren Salafiyah Syafi’iyah Sukorejo, Situbondo, serta relevansinya dalam konteks pendidikan dan politik lokal. Menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif etnografi-hermeneutika, data diperoleh melalui observasi partisipatif, wawancara mendalam, dan studi dokumen. Temuan menunjukkan bahwa Kiai Fawaid memadukan nilai spiritual dengan karakter kepribadian seperti stabilitas emosi, kesadaran tinggi, dan keterbukaan, yang memperkuat daya tarik kepemimpinannya. Pendekatan at-tawazun menyoroti keseimbangan antara emosi, spiritualitas, dan rasionalitas dalam strategi dakwahnya, termasuk inovasi melalui grup musik Al-Badar. Diskusi hasil menunjukkan bahwa kepribadian extraversion dan conscientiousness mendukung perluasan jaringan sosial dan efektivitas pengambilan keputusan berbasis nilai. Konsep khidmah menjadi inti etika kepemimpinan. Penelitian ini menawarkan model kepemimpinan nilai yang etis, berkarakter, dan relevan bagi perubahan sosial berkelanjutan.

Abstract

Family visitation in correctional institutions has consistently been associated with improved psychological well-being and rehabilitation outcomes among incarcerated individuals; however, existing research remains largely quantitative and outcome-focused, offering limited theoretical insight into the relational and therapeutic mechanisms underlying these effects from a counseling perspective. Addressing this gap, the present phenomenological study explores the lived experiences of incarcerated individuals during family visits and examines the relational dynamics that emerge through the lens of systemic family counseling. Using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA), in-depth semi-structured interviews were conducted with nine male incarcerated individuals and five family members in an Indonesian correctional facility. The analysis revealed that family visitation constitutes a multidimensional and dialectical experience, simultaneously providing existential validation, emotional reassurance, and identity reinforcement, while also eliciting ambivalent emotions such as guilt, vulnerability, and anticipatory loss. Visitation encounters functioned as systemic microcosms in which core therapeutic processes—emotional co-regulation, narrative reconstruction of self and family roles, and protective relational communication aimed at managing conflict and preserving hope—unfolded organically. These findings support a conceptual reframing of family visitation as a naturally occurring systemic therapeutic intervention, rather than a peripheral institutional routine. The study carries important implications for counseling practice in correctional settings, highlighting the need to strategically integrate family visitation into structured pre-visit preparation and post-visit counseling processes to enhance psychological recovery and support reintegration trajectories.

Abstract

This article proposes an epistemological framework for the development of Islamic Guidance and Counseling as a discipline situated at the intersection of modern counseling psychology and Islamic scholarly traditions. The central argument is that the integrity of science in Islamic counseling cannot be achieved through the mastery of a single method whether Western clinical techniques or literal adherence to religious texts but rather through a balanced proportionality among six sources of knowledge: revelation, reason, the senses, intuition, empirical experience, and scientific tradition. To operationalize this framework, the article examines two epistemic models derived from the body of thought of K.H.R. As'ad Syamsul Arifin, the leader of the Salafiyah Syafi'iyah Sukorejo Islamic Boarding School: the taxonomy of three categories of judgment (aqli, shar'i, and 'adat), explicitly formulated as a pedagogical prerequisite in Risālah al-Tauḥīd (Arifin, 1973a); and a broader epistemic architecture encompassing spiritual, axiological, anthropological, and methodological dimensions traceable through his entire body of work and leadership practices. The study employs a qualitative-interpretive approach with a thematic analysis strategy applied to three layers of data: twelve primary written works, three biographies, and two collections of his teachings. The findings indicate that the taxonomy of three categories of judgment is not merely a doctrinal legacy of Ash'ari theology associated with the figure in question, but rather an epistemic structure consistently operationalized across various fields of knowledge and even explicitly utilized as a diagnostic criterion for assessing the validity of spiritual authority. The article argues that this type of proportionality offers an alternative to the methodological monism that restricts cross cultural counseling debates to a binary choice between clinical science and literal faith, while simultaneously providing a more explicit epistemic foundation for pesantren based counseling models such as at-tawazun (Arifin, 2012, 2020). The practical implication is the need for Islamic counseling practitioners to develop epistemic sensitivity regarding how religious clients classify their problems based on the sources of knowledge they deem relevant.

Abstract

In the face of Society 5.0 and rapid digitalization, younger generations are increasingly vulnerable to emotional imbalance, a diminished spiritual connection, and weakened social bonds. This study explores the thoughts of K.H.R. Ach. Azaim Ibrahimy on happiness and psychological well-being, as conveyed through the Majelis Dzikir Basmalah YouTube channel, and examines their alignment with Martin Seligman’s PERMA model. This study addresses a gap in existing research by integrating the spiritual teachings of Kiai Azaim Ibrahimy with Seligman’s PERMA model to explore well-being in Islamic boarding schools, a context largely overlooked in both Islamic and psychological literature. Its novelty lies in offering a holistic framework that combines local spiritual wisdom with positive psychology to respond to the mental health challenges of pesantren communities in the digital Society 5.0 era. Using a qualitative hermeneutic-ethnographic approach, the research reveals that Kiai Azaim’s teachings resonate with the five pillars of PERMA: gratitude as a source of positive emotion, spiritual engagement through religious devotion, harmonious interpersonal relationships, a meaningful life rooted in service, and a sense of accomplishment encompassing both worldly and spiritual success. The study further analyzes the implementation of the At-Tawazun counseling model in pesantren (Islamic boarding school) settings, which incorporates local wisdom through practices such as uswah hasanah (exemplary conduct), ta’zhim (reverence), khidmah (service), and riyadhah (spiritual discipline). These traditions foster spiritual, social, and psychological harmony within the pesantren environment. The findings underscore the strategic role of pesantren-based counseling as a contextual, holistic, and culturally grounded approach to enhancing mental well-being in the digital age. Consequently, pesantren emerge not only as spiritual institutions but also as vital centers for nurturing psychological resilience amid global change. Di tengah tantangan era Society 5.0 dan digitalisasi, generasi muda menghadapi ketidakseimbangan emosional yang kian kompleks. Ketergantungan pada teknologi, tekanan sosial media, serta melemahnya ikatan spiritual dan sosial berkontribusi terhadap menurunnya tingkat kebahagiaan dan kesejahteraan psikologis. Studi ini bertolak dari kegelisahan tersebut, dengan meneliti pemikiran Kiai Azaim Ibrahimy tentang kebahagiaan dan kesejahteraan jiwa yang disampaikan melalui kanal YouTube Majelis Dzikir Basmalah, dan mengaitkannya dengan model PERMA dari Martin Seligman. Melalui pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode hermeneutik-etnografis, penelitian ini menemukan bahwa ajaran Kiai Azaim selaras dengan lima dimensi PERMA: syukur sebagai sumber emosi positif, keterlibatan spiritual dalam ibadah, relasi sosial harmonis antar santri, makna hidup dalam bingkai pengabdian, serta pencapaian yang mencakup keberhasilan dunia dan akhirat. Penelitian ini juga menelaah praktik konseling At-Tawazun di pesantren yang mengintegrasikan kearifan lokal melalui metode uswah hasanah, ta’zhim, khidmah, dan riyadhah. Teknik-teknik ini terbukti efektif dalam menumbuhkan keseimbangan spiritual, sosial, dan psikologis di lingkungan pesantren. Temuan ini menegaskan pentingnya pengembangan pendekatan konseling berbasis pesantren sebagai model alternatif yang kontekstual, relevan, dan holistik untuk memperkuat ketahanan mental di era digital. Dengan demikian, pesantren tidak hanya berfungsi sebagai lembaga pendidikan spiritual, tetapi juga sebagai pusat penguatan kesejahteraan psikologis yang adaptif terhadap dinamika global.
