Abstract

This study explores the complex function of Aliya Madrasahs in Bangladesh, particularly emphasising how they affect Muslim students' identities and religious practices. The study clarifies the complex roles these institutions play through qualitative methods.

Abstract

Objective: This study investigates the key factors influencing student motivation and behavior in higher education, with a specific emphasis on student engagement, counseling, and mental health services. The main objective is to understand how these components contribute to students’ academic and personal development, enhance their learning experiences, and foster a healthy and inclusive campus environment. Theoretical framework: The theoretical framework draws from Self-Determination Theory (SDT), which highlights the significance of autonomy, competence, and relatedness in motivating individuals. Literature review: The literature review supports the role of student-centered support systems, particularly mental health and counseling services, as essential for academic persistence and emotional resilience. Methods: A qualitative research approach was adopted, employing focus groups and in-depth interviews with a diverse set of participants. These included faculty members across various disciplines, professional counselors, mental health practitioners, and students. Results: The study reveals that intrinsic motivation—fostered through an inclusive and supportive academic culture—is a major determinant of student success. Students who actively engage in academic and extracurricular activities demonstrate more positive behavior and show higher levels of motivation and resilience. Counseling and mental health services play a crucial role in helping students navigate emotional and psychological stress, thus sustaining their engagement and well-being. Implications: The findings have significant implications for higher education institutions. They underscore the need to prioritize mental health services and student engagement programs as core components of student success strategies. Institutions should create opportunities for leadership, peer support, and inclusive learning to strengthen students’ sense of belonging and community. Novelty: The novelty of this study lies in its integrated perspective, combining academic, psychological, and social dimensions to propose a holistic model for fostering student motivation and behavior.

Abstract

This study aims to conduct a comparative study on the concept of ideal teacher competence according to Al-Ghazali and Abdullah Nashih Ulwan, as well as examine their relevance and application in the modern education system. Teacher competence, which includes aspects of knowledge, skills, and morals, is an important element in shaping the quality of education. Al-Ghazali and Abdullah Nashih Ulwan, as prominent scholars, have made significant contributions in formulating the characteristics of the ideal teacher from the Islamic perspective. This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive-analytical approach, where data is collected through an in-depth literature study of the works of the two figures. The results of the study show that although there are some similarities in the views of Al-Ghazali and Abdullah Nashih Ulwan related to the competence of ideal teachers, such as the emphasis on noble morals and mastery of science, there are also differences in the context of their application. Al-Ghazali emphasizes more on the role of teachers in building the character of students and the educational community, while Abdullah Nashih Ulwan focuses more on the aspects of mastery of knowledge and teaching methods. The novelty of this study lies in a comparative analysis that reveals the relevance of the views of these two scholars in answering the challenges of modern education, including in the application of technology and curriculum development. The implications of this research are expected to be a reference for policymakers and education practitioners in formulating teacher competency development strategies based on Islamic values, which are by the demands of the times without ignoring religious principles.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate work culture and sharia views on night work, focusing on responsibility, ethics, and its impact. This research method uses a qualitative approach by conducting a literature review and analysis of relevant primary and secondary sources. The results show that modern work culture often encourages individuals to work at night, especially in the service, health, and hospitality industries. Nevertheless, the Sharia view emphasizes the importance of balance between work and worship, as well as maintaining physical and mental health. In this context, working nights can pose moral and social challenges that need to be carefully considered. The novelty of this research lies in merging the perspective of modern work culture with the view of sharia, which is rarely explored thoroughly. The results of this analysis provide a deeper understanding of individual responsibilities in undergoing night work, as well as provide ethical guidance relevant to the Islamic context. In conclusion, this research can provide valuable insights for individuals, organizations, and communities in understanding the implications of night work from the point of view of work culture and sharia

Abstract

Integrating ethical principles into curricula is crucial for nurturing moral development among students. This study explores the foundational role of Islamic epistemology in shaping knowledge acquisition and ethical conduct. The study investigates ethical curriculum practices in Islamic education through a qualitative research approach combining literature review and content analysis. Islamic epistemology, rooted in Quranic revelations, Prophetic traditions, and scholarly interpretations, delineates knowledge's sources and ethical dimensions. Islamic scholars distinguish between revealed and acquired knowledge, with revelation serving as the cornerstone. The Quran and Hadith provide guidance on faith, morality, and conduct, complemented by reason ('aql/عقل) for critical inquiry and ethical discernment. Drawing from the synthesis of revelation and reason, Islamic ethics guides individual conduct, social interactions, and environmental stewardship. Ethical curriculum development entails integrating Islamic values across academic disciplines, facilitated by pedagogical approaches such as experiential learning, cooperative inquiry, and Socratic dialogue. Challenges including curricular alignment, teacher training, and cultural sensitivity exist, yet ethical curriculum development rooted in Islamic epistemology offers opportunities to cultivate ethical consciousness and foster global citizenship. Upholding methodological rigor and ethical considerations ensures validity and reliability, respecting diverse cultural and religious perspectives. This study underscores the need for further research and collaboration to advance ethical education practices grounded in Islamic principles, responsive to evolving learner needs and fostering ethical leadership in an interconnected world.

Abstract

This study investigates the concept of labour dignity in Islamic ethical teachings, focusing on how foundational Islamic texts conceptualize the rights and responsibilities of workers and employers. While numerous studies address Islamic economic principles or general labour rights, few have examined labour dignity specifically through an ethical lens that integrates both classical sources and contemporary applications. This research aims to fill that gap by systematically analyzing how Islamic principles—drawn from the Qur'an, Hadith, and Islamic jurisprudence—can inform modern work ethics and labour practices. The study adopts a qualitative content analysis approach, using targeted keywords such as Islamic labour ethics, the dignity of work in Islam, and social justice in Islamic thought to review relevant primary and secondary literature. The findings indicate that Islam upholds labour dignity through core values such as fair compensation, mutual respect, social responsibility, and anti-exploitation norms. Workers are regarded not merely as economic agents but as participants in spiritual and communal growth, while employers are ethically obligated to ensure just treatment. The study contributes to Islamic labour ethics scholarship by bridging religious doctrines with contemporary socio-economic discourse, offering theoretical insight and practical recommendations for promoting equity and justice in diverse labour environments.
