Abstract

The surge of Islamic motivational content on social media has generated a form of religious communication that adopts the language of instant positivity typical of pop psychology. Behind phrases like “Don’t be sad, Allah is with you” or “Stay strong, Allah will make a way,” lies a practice of toxic positivity—urging constant happiness and gratitude without validating negative emotions. This study critically examines how toxic positivity manifests in popular Islamic content and its psychological impact on young Muslims. Employing critical discourse analysis on 300 #MotivasiIslami posts from Instagram and TikTok, alongside digital ethnography and interviews with 20 content consumers aged 18–30, the study identifies three dominant patterns: denial of negative emotions, simplistic religious solutions, and misuse of the concept of tawakkul. Findings reveal that 28% of respondents felt guilty for not being able to maintain constant positivity. The research highlights how Qur'anic verses or prophetic traditions are selectively used to support shallow affirmations, and how the attention economy commodifies spirituality. The study underlines the need for religious media literacy that promotes a balanced integration of psychology and spirituality, and a more holistic narrative of sabr (patience). It recommends developing content that not only encourages but also embraces emotional complexity within the framework of faith.

Abstract

This study examines the impact of school zoning policy on the quality of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) instruction in ten border schools located along the Indonesia–Malaysia and Indonesia–Timor Leste frontiers. Using a mixed-methods approach that combines surveys of 120 PAI teachers and in-depth case studies in five schools, the study finds that zoning policy has exacerbated disparities in PAI instruction quality. Three main mechanisms are identified: (1) unequal redistribution of PAI teachers, leaving border schools without qualified instructors; (2) the lack of significant incentives to attract and retain competent teachers in remote areas; and (3) insufficient religious instructional resources such as learning media and worship facilities. The study also notes the absence of religious education considerations in the current zoning policy framework, which has led to the marginalization of PAI’s role in border school curricula. This research recommends the implementation of geographically targeted affirmative policies to ensure the equitable distribution of qualified PAI teachers, the provision of adequate religious learning infrastructure, and the strengthening of madrasah diniyah networks and local religious institutions. The findings are expected to contribute to the development of a more inclusive and context-sensitive educational policy framework.
