Abstract

Islamic Religious Education (PAI) aims to translate religious knowledge into consistent practice, with prayer (salat) as a key outcome. However, a significant value-action gap often persists. This study investigated the mechanisms through which PAI learning influences Dhuhr prayer performance among Grade VII students at SMP Negeri 4 Rengat, Indonesia. A sequential explanatory mixed-methods design was employed, framing the analysis through the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB). Quantitative data from all 52 students revealed that while the direct effect of PAI learning on prayer was weak, a model incorporating TPB constructs was highly significant, explaining 51.2% of the variance. Perceived Behavioral Control (PBC) was the strongest predictor (β = .59, p < .001), followed by Subjective Norms. Attitude was not a significant unique predictor. Qualitative interviews and observations with a sub-sample clarified that PBC was undermined by practical barriers like lack of confidence in prayer movements and social distractions, while norms operated through peer influence. The findings demonstrate that the PAI-prayer relationship is not direct but is critically mediated by students' perceived control and social environment. This necessitates a pedagogical shift beyond knowledge delivery towards interventions that build practical competency, scaffold habit formation, and cultivate supportive peer networks to bridge the gap between religious learning and lived practice.

Abstract

This study examines how madrasah principals' leadership practices and school culture shape teacher performance in Muhammadiyah schools in South Sulawesi, Indonesia. While previous studies have extensively addressed leadership and school culture, evidence remains limited regarding the specific mechanisms by which faith-based leadership in Muhammadiyah madrasahs is manifested and experienced at the school level, particularly outside of key areas. Addressing this gap is crucial because leadership and culture are practical levers for strengthening teacher development and maintaining school quality in a values-based educational environment. This study employed a qualitative multiple case study design in three Muhammadiyah madrasahs in South Sulawesi. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with participants (madrasah principals, vice-principals, and teachers) who were purposively selected based on criteria such as position, minimum tenure, integration into professional development programs, and non-participant observation and document analysis (e.g., school policies and professional development records). Data were analyzed using thematic analysis through iterative coding, theme development, and cross-case comparison. Findings indicate that principals support teacher performance through (1) structured professional development planning (e.g., training/workshops aligned with teacher needs), (2) instructional supervision and feedback routines, (3) cultivating a collaborative culture (peer support, shared problem-solving), and (4) recognition practices that strengthen motivation and commitment. Based on these themes, we recommend strengthening needs-based professional development cycles, institutionalizing regular feedback and supervision protocols, and implementing transparent recognition criteria aligned with agreed-upon performance indicators.

Abstract

This paper critically examines the distinction between takaful and conventional insurance through the lens of maqasid al-Shari’ah. While existing scholarship has often compared the two systems primarily in terms of contractual structures and institutional arrangements, this study argues that contemporary takaful practices frequently replicate conventional insurance models, thereby raising concerns regarding their substantive alignment with Islamic principles. Methodologically, the paper adopts a qualitative doctrinal approach using content analysis of academic literature, fatwa positions, and regulatory guidelines. The analysis demonstrates that the fundamental distinction between takaful and conventional insurance lies not merely in structural modification, but in the ethical foundations of mutuality, justice, and risk-sharing that takaful is intended to uphold. The findings indicate that operational pressures and market realities have weakened these ideals, resulting in persistent challenges related to governance, surplus management, and product design. By incorporating maqasid considerations, particularly hifz al-māl and ʿadl, the study reorients the discourse on takaful from a narrow compliance-based perspective toward a more value-driven framework. The paper concludes that preserving the distinct identity of takaful requires moving beyond formal legal compliance to ensure that its operations genuinely reflect the higher objectives of Shari’ah. This study contributes theoretically by enriching the Islamic finance literature through a maqasid-centric perspective and offers practical implications for regulators, takaful operators, and policymakers seeking to realign industry practice with its original ethical foundations.
