Abstract

Education is a key element in the development of both individuals and society, in both general and specific contexts. Broadly speaking, education encompasses a lifelong learning process that has a positive impact, while in a narrower sense, it refers to formal educational institutions. The right to education is guaranteed by the Indonesian Law No. 20 of 2003 and is emphasized in the Qur’an, especially in Surah Al-‘Alaq. This study aims to explore the essence of Islamic education in the modern era, based on verses 1-5 of Surah Al-‘Alaq, through the interpretation of Ibn Kathir. A qualitative approach is used in this study, employing library research as the research method. Based on the analysis of Ibn Kathir’s tafsir on Surah Al-‘Alaq, it is found that education and learning are forms of mercy from Allah SWT, teaching humanity things they did not know before. Islamic education plays an important role in shaping the character and morals of individuals according to religious teachings, while integrating general knowledge with religious principles. Ibn Kathir’s tafsir in this Surah highlights the importance of reading, writing, and learning tawhid. Reading in the name of Allah SWT is considered to bring blessings and knowledge, while writing is necessary for preserving and safeguarding knowledge. Tawhid, which is the core of Islamic teachings, plays a crucial role in building awareness and devotion to Allah SWT. The paradigms of Islamic education based on the tafsir of Surah Al-‘Alaq include (1) the holistic education paradigm, (2) the tawhid-based education paradigm, and (3) the sustainable education paradigm. Overall, Islamic education aims to cultivate individuals who are not only intellectually intelligent but also possess high moral and spiritual values.

Abstract

This study examines the impact of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) method on students’ learning motivation and social character development within the context of Islamic Religious Education (PAI). Reflecting Nelson Mandela’s assertion that education is the most powerful tool to change the world, fostering a supportive learning environment is especially vital in the digital era and the post-Covid-19 period, both of which have significantly affected student motivation and character formation. PBL emerges as a relevant and effective approach to meet these challenges. A mixed-methods design was employed, combining quantitative methods to measure key variables and qualitative methods for deeper insights through interviews and observations. Data collection involved 25 questionnaire items and 6 interview questions administered to educators and students, with a total of 128 survey respondents and 10 interview participants from SMAN 2 Bandung and MAN Cimahi City. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, while qualitative data were processed using Miles and Huberman’s framework, including data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The results reveal that PBL positively influences learning motivation and supports the development of four key dimensions of social character: (1) religiosity, (2) worship, (3) responsibility, and (4) tolerance. Notably, SMAN 2 Bandung showed the greatest improvement in tolerance (3.71), whereas MAN Cimahi City excelled in the worship dimension (3.70). Overall, worship and tolerance were the most significantly affected aspects. These findings suggest that integrating PBL into PAI can enhance students' academic engagement and deepen the internalization of religious values. This study contributes empirical evidence that PBL fosters not only cognitive growth but also social and spiritual development, offering practical recommendations for educators and policymakers to create more effective, student-centered PAI learning models in a post-pandemic educational landscape.
