Abstract

Objective: This study aims to examine the integration of Islamic counseling themes within Saheed Osupa’s Fuji music, with particular emphasis on the Kokoro Alate album, through a sharia-based analytical perspective. Theoretical framework: The theoretical framework of this research is grounded in Islamic counseling theory, which derives moral and psychological guidance from the Qur’an, Hadith, and Islamic ethical principles, including patience (sabr), repentance (tawbah), gratitude (shukr), accountability (taqwa), and moral responsibility. Literature review: Existing literature on religion and popular culture indicates that indigenous music genres often function as informal channels for moral instruction and spiritual reflection, yet limited attention has been given to Fuji music as a medium for Islamic counseling discourse. This study addresses this gap by situating Fuji music within the broader conversation on Islamic ethics and cultural expression. Methods: The research adopts a qualitative content analysis approach, focusing on selected lyrics from the Kokoro Alate album. The lyrics are examined to identify recurring counseling themes and to analyze their alignment with Islamic ethical values and sharia-oriented moral teachings. The analysis also considers the socio-cultural context of Yoruba Muslims, for whom Fuji music represents both cultural identity and religious expression. Results: The findings reveal that Saheed Osupa systematically embeds Islamic counseling messages within his lyrics through the use of metaphors, proverbs, and culturally familiar narratives. Themes such as self-reflection, endurance in adversity, moral restraint, family responsibility, and social justice are consistently emphasized. These messages function as moral reminders that encourage listeners to align personal behavior with Islamic principles while navigating contemporary social challenges. Implications: The study has significant implications for Islamic studies, counseling, and cultural discourse, demonstrating that popular music can serve as an effective medium for informal Islamic education and moral reform. It highlights the potential of culturally grounded art forms to transmit Sharia-based values beyond formal religious institutions. Novelty: The novelty of this research lies in its sharia-oriented reading of Fuji music as a form of Islamic counseling, offering a fresh perspective on how indigenous popular culture contributes to ethical formation and spiritual guidance among Muslim communities.

Abstract

Objective: Analyze a holistic approach to internalizing character values in IRE students and formulate a madrass-based integrative model that supports SDG 4. Focus on conceptualization, implementation, the role of teachers, and their impact on student behavior. Theoretical framework: Based on Islamic character education theory, a holistic approach, and a continuous education paradigm. Internalization of values is understood as a pedagogical, cultural, and spiritual process that is integrated in the madrasah ecosystem. Literature review:  The literature emphasizes the importance of integrating curriculum, teacher examples, and school culture in character education. The holistic approach is considered effective in building the affective and spiritual dimensions of students in a sustainable manner. Methods: Using a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data were obtained through observation, interviews, and documentation, and analyzed with Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña interactive models and triangulation. Results: A holistic approach is implemented through the integration of the IRE curriculum, teacher example, religious habituation, strengthening madrasah culture, and social activities that form a sustainable moral ecosystem. IRE teachers act as exemplary agents as well as spiritual companions. This approach has a significant impact on improving students' discipline, religiosity, responsibility, and social concern. Implications: To make a practical contribution to the sustainable development of madrasah character education. Theoretically, it strengthens the integration of Islamic education and the global quality education agenda. Novelty: Offers an integrative conceptual model that systematically blends pedagogic, cultural, and spiritual dimensions. This model enriches the development of madrass-based character education within the framework of sustainability.

Abstract

Objective: This study aims to examine the potential of a reform-oriented Medical Takaful model as an alternative healthcare financing system in Nigeria by assessing public awareness, acceptability, and the development of a sustainable and Shariah-compliant healthcare model. Theoretical framework: The study is based on Islamic finance principles, particularly ta’awun (cooperation), risk-sharing, and maqasid al-shariah, alongside sustainable development theory focusing on equitable healthcare access and social welfare. Literature review: Previous studies show that Nigeria faces challenges such as low insurance coverage, high out-of-pocket healthcare costs, and weak healthcare financing systems. Research also indicates that Takaful has been effective in countries like Malaysia and Indonesia, although its implementation in Nigeria remains limited due to poor awareness and regulatory challenges. Methods: The study adopted a mixed-methods approach using questionnaires distributed to 300 respondents and interviews with Islamic scholars, healthcare professionals, and insurance experts. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and thematic analysis. Results: The findings revealed low medical insurance coverage but high interest in Islamic-compliant healthcare financing. Major challenges identified include poor awareness, lack of trust, and inadequate policy support. Most respondents expressed willingness to participate in a properly regulated Medical Takaful scheme. Implications: The study suggests that Medical Takaful can improve healthcare access, reduce out-of-pocket expenses, and support sustainable development goals through inclusive and ethical healthcare financing. Novelty: The study proposes a reform-oriented Medical Takaful model specifically designed for Nigeria’s socio-economic and religious context by combining Islamic principles with modern healthcare financing strategies.
