Abstract

This article explains how curriculum innovation is managed to improve educational quality in madrasas, focusing specifically on MA Al-Rosyid Bojonegoro and MA Assalam Tuban. The research uses a field study design with a qualitative–descriptive method and a multiple case study approach. Data were gathered through interviews, observations, and document analysis, and subsequently analyzed within and across cases. The findings show that the planning of curriculum innovation in both madrasas has been structured and carried out effectively to enhance educational quality. This planning includes: (1) the delivery of information related to the conditions and urgency of innovation by the Madrasah principal in a structured manner and in accordance with regulations; (2) active participation of teachers, education staff, committees, and parents; (3) determination of curriculum implementation through annual and semester meetings approved by all related parties; (4) implementation of continuous evaluation through meetings, observations, and routine monthly meetings between the Madrasah principal and the curriculum head, as well as semester meetings with teachers; and (5) holding meetings with parents and the committee at the end of the semester. Theoretically, this research contributes to strengthening the discourse on the quality management of Islamic education in the context of curriculum innovation. At the same time, practically, it offers strategic recommendations for curriculum management in private madrasas in rural areas.

Abstract

Despite the significant growth of Islamic Social Finance (ISF) globally, zakat management often remains trapped in a legal-formalistic and charity-based paradigm, failing to address the roots of structural poverty. This study critically analyzes the Social Fiqh paradigm of KH. Sahal Mahfudh as a transformative model for integrating zakat into the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Utilizing qualitative library research and a transformative hermeneutics approach, this research decodes Mahfudh’s Madzhab Manhaji methodology to reconstruct the distributive philosophy of zakat. The findings reveal that: (1) Mahfudh initiates an epistemological metamorphosis by redefining zakat from a static ritual into social engineering capital, which legitimizes systemic economic intervention; (2) the model leverages Pesantren-based social capital as a social incubator and non-financial collateral, ensuring the sustainability and accountability of the mustahiq-to-muzakki transition; and (3) the Social Fiqh paradigm serves as an indigenous epistemological bridge that aligns classical jurisprudence with SDG 1 (No Poverty) and SDG 8 (Decent Work) by targeting structural deprivations. This research contributes an indigenous sustainable development model for the global Muslim community, proving that traditional religious authority and social capital are vital for achieving holistic socioeconomic resilience in the 21st century.

Abstract

This study examines the implementation of productive zakat management within Indonesia’s Islamic social finance framework by integrating legal compliance, institutional governance, and economic empowerment perspectives. Despite the significant potential of zakat as a tool for poverty alleviation, its utilization often remains consumptive, limiting its long-term developmental impact. This research aims to analyze how productive zakat is implemented, to evaluate its compliance with Law No. 23 of 2011, and to assess its contribution to the economic empowerment of beneficiaries. A qualitative case study approach was employed, focusing on a local zakat institution in Indonesia. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, field observations, and document analysis, and were analyzed using thematic analysis combined with a legal compliance framework. The study adopts an integrated theoretical approach, drawing on Islamic social finance, empowerment theory, maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah, and institutional governance perspectives. The findings reveal that productive zakat management has shifted toward empowerment-oriented practices through business capital support, training, and mentoring programs. However, the sustainability of these initiatives depends on the strength of institutional support systems and beneficiary capacity. While the institution demonstrates substantial formal compliance with regulatory requirements, a gap persists between normative compliance and substantive implementation. Furthermore, productive zakat contributes positively to economic empowerment, as evidenced by increased income and business activity among beneficiaries, although long-term resilience remains uneven. This study contributes to the literature by proposing a multi-layered analytical framework that integrates legal compliance with governance and empowerment outcomes in zakat management. It highlights that effective productive zakat requires not only regulatory adherence but also strong institutional capacity and continuous empowerment strategies. The findings offer practical insights for policymakers and zakat institutions to enhance governance mechanisms and optimize the role of zakat as a sustainable development instrument within Islamic social finance.
