Abstract

Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) currently face dual challenges: maintaining traditional orthodoxy while responding to global technological disruption. This study aims to analyze resilience and adaptation strategies used by pesantren to bridge the values of student (santri) obedience with the characteristics of a critical digital generation. Employing a qualitative approach with a library research method, the data were analyzed descriptively to examine contemporary challenges within the Islamic education ecosystem. The results indicate that pesantren adaptation is manifested in four strategic domains: (1) Curriculum reconstruction through the integration of classical Islamic texts (turats) with scientific-technological literacy; (2) Strengthening digital literacy as a filter against radicalism and hoaxes; (3) Mainstreaming religious moderation (wasathiyyah) as a counter-narrative to extremism; and (4) Fostering economic independence based on sociopreneurship. This article concludes that the sustainability of pesantren depends on its ability to recontextualize values through the principle of al-muhafadhah ‘ala al-qadim al-shalih wa al-akhdzu bi al-jadid al-ashlah (preserving good old traditions while adopting better new ones). Supported by Law No. 18 of 2019, pesantren have the potential to transform into centers of Islamic civilization that are authentic yet globally relevant.

Abstract

This article explores how the practice of tabarruk is understood and carried out in Islamic boarding schools through the perspective of Talal Asad's discursive tradition. This approach opens up a broader space for understanding tabarruk through text and context. By combining open-ended questionnaires and brief interviews, this study traces how tabarruk is formed and passed down through religious discourse, behavioral etiquette, and the authoritative role of kiai in the daily life of Islamic boarding schools. The results show that elements such as sanad, ijazah, and the legitimacy of a kiai serve as the main determinants of the validity of tabarruk as well as the boundaries that distinguish it from practices that are considered excessive or deviant. This confirms that the pesantren tradition applies through a combination of texts and bodily practices manifested in manners, gestures, and close relationships between kiai and santri. This study concludes that tabarruk is not merely a ritual of seeking blessings, but a process of forming religious identity and subjectivity that takes place through interactions between religious discourse, kiai authority, and daily practices among pesantren communities. The results of this study provide an important contribution to understanding how religious traditions survive, adapt, and gain legitimacy amid social changes in the development of modern pesantren.
