Abstract

The community service activity titled "Assistance in Qira’at and Qur’anic Studies Learning at Komplek Tahfiz Sukan Sofiuddin, Selangor, Malaysia" aimed to improve the quality of Qira’at and Qur’anic studies through a participatory approach. This program targeted enhancing the competencies of educators, increasing student motivation, and utilizing interactive digital media. Conducted over two days, the activity was attended by five teachers and 84 students from various halaqahs and age levels. The results demonstrated significant impacts on improving teachers’ abilities to effectively teach Qira’at variations and create an engaging classroom environment. Students exhibited greater interest in the technical aspects of Qira’at, with significantly improved learning outcomes. Moreover, the direct assistance achieved success in terms of quantity, with participant numbers exceeding the initial target. Despite challenges such as limited student understanding, varying technological skills among participants, and the short duration of training, implemented solutions effectively addressed these issues. This program has great potential to be replicated in other tahfiz institutions, supported by participatory approaches and digital technology. Therefore, this activity made a tangible contribution to the innovative and sustainable development of Qur'anic education.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the efficiency of the curriculum of Islamic universities in Indonesia in ensuring the readiness of students to enter the workforce, by reviewing the role of Islamic religious education in improving intellectual competence. Through a literature study approach, this study identifies the challenges and opportunities faced by Islamic universities in integrating religious values ​​with the intellectual and professional needs of students. The main focus of this study is the effectiveness of the curriculum in balancing theoretical aspects of religion and practical skills needed in the workplace. This study found that the curriculum of Islamic universities in Indonesia has attempted to adopt an integrative approach that combines religious education with the development of soft skills and hard skills that are relevant to professional careers. However, there are still some weaknesses in the implementation, such as the lack of curriculum adjustment to the dynamics of the labor market, as well as the imbalance between religious education and practical skills. The results of this study indicate that Islamic religious education has an important role in shaping the character and professional ethics of students, which are the main capital in entering the workforce. Therefore, increasing the efficiency of the curriculum through collaboration between academics, industry practitioners, and policy makers is needed to ensure that students' intellectuality is in accordance with the demands of the workplace. This study contributes to the academic discussion on the reform of Islamic higher education curriculum and emphasizes the importance of Islamic religious education in producing graduates who are not only intellectually competent, but also have strong ethical values ​​to face professional challenges. The implication of this study is the need for a more flexible and adaptive curriculum strategy to improve the competitiveness of Islamic higher education graduates in the global job market.
