Abstract

This study aims to analyze the urgency and implementation of critical thinking in modern Islamic preaching as a bridge between text and context. The research method used is library research by examining relevant scientific sources in the form of national and international journal articles, academic books, and empirical research results. Data analysis was carried out thematically through a content analysis approach and supported by bibliometric visualization using VOSviewer for 150 related articles. The results of the study show that critical thinking is the main pillar in developing adaptive contextual preaching in the digital era. Bibliometric visualization shows that critical thinking is the main node that is closely connected to the theme of digital preaching, religious moderation, and prevention of radicalism. The implementation of critical thinking in preaching includes evaluative abilities towards sources of teachings, contextual awareness of the audience, dialogical openness, and ethical reflection in responding to differences. The strategy for strengthening implementation includes reformulating the dai education curriculum, digital media literacy training, and developing interactive discussion forums based on scientific arguments. This study emphasizes that strengthening critical attitudes in da'wah is an epistemological need to produce moderate, solution-oriented da'wah messages that are relevant to the dynamics of the times.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of Islamic communication principles in the organizational culture of State Islamic Religious Higher Education (PTKIN), identify supporting and inhibiting factors, and examine their implications for organizational performance. The research method uses the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach to 25 selected scientific articles relevant to the topic of Islamic communication and PTKIN organizational management. The results of the study indicate that the implementation of Islamic communication in the PTKIN environment is integrated into five main principles: sidq (honesty), amanah (responsibility), syura (deliberation), adab (communication ethics), and hikmah (wisdom). These five principles are applied in the decision-making process, conflict management, interpersonal relationship development, and institutional governance. Supporting factors for implementation include a strong basis for organizational spirituality, Islamic visionary leadership, participatory organizational structure, and strengthening values ​​through academic curriculum. The inhibiting factors include resistance to organizational culture, lack of Islamic managerial training, dualism of management culture, and differences in perception between generations. Empirically, the application of Islamic communication has implications for increasing the effectiveness of governance, academic productivity, institutional reputation, and institutional stability of PTKIN in facing the dynamics of globalization of Islamic higher education.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role and influence of political advertising in Indonesia’s general elections, focusing on how it shapes public opinion, sets the political agenda, and frames candidate images. Utilizing Political Communication Theory, Agenda Setting Theory, and Framing Theory as the theoretical framework, the research explores the strategic use of political advertisements across traditional and digital media platforms. Employing a qualitative approach through literature review and content analysis, the study examines secondary data from academic journals, official election reports, legal regulations, and media publications. The analysis reveals that political advertising in Indonesia functions not merely as a promotional tool but as a strategic instrument to influence voter perceptions and behavior, prioritizing certain political issues while framing narratives that align with candidates’ desired images.Findings show that while political ads effectively elevate issues like the economy and corruption in public discourse, they often emphasize candidate personalization and emotional appeals over substantive policy discussions. The rise of digital media and microtargeting techniques further intensifies the reach and segmentation of political messages, raising concerns about misinformation and social polarization. The study concludes that effective political advertising integrates message credibility, media channel selection, agenda-setting, and framing strategies tailored to the socio-political context. It underscores the need for adaptive regulatory frameworks to ensure transparency and fairness in political communication, thereby contributing to a more informed electorate and healthier democratic processes in Indonesia.
