Abstract

The ability of young children to recognize, pronounce, and write hijaiyah letters remains low due to monotonous and less interactive learning methods. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of PowerPoint-based learning media in improving young children’s skills in recognizing, pronouncing, and writing hijaiyah letters. The research employed a one-group pretest-posttest experimental design. Data were collected through observation and ability tests. Data analysis was performed using SmartPLS to test validity and reliability and to test hypotheses. The results show that students’ mastery of hijaiyah letters is still in the moderate range. Memorization is the weakest aspect, falling into the low category. Post-test scores for students 1–14 ranged only from 1 to 3, indicating no significant improvement compared to the pre-test. Overall, the progress was minimal and not statistically significant. This suggests that learning still needs reinforcement, especially through memorization practice and repetition, to help students recognize, pronounce, and write hijaiyah letters more effectively and evenly. However, interactive PowerPoint media has the potential to enhance children’s learning of hijaiyah letters through engaging, visual, and participatory methods, despite the lack of significant improvement. This study contributes to the development of innovative digital learning tools aimed at improving the quality of hijaiyah letter learning for early childhood education.

Abstract

Background. Sufism has historically played a central role in shaping Islamic spirituality in Indonesia, yet its presence and function in contemporary contexts—particularly among urban and rural communities—remain underexplored. Amid the dynamic religious landscape of modern Indonesia, marked by increasing pluralism, conservatism, and digital religiosity, the integration of Sufi practices and values continues to adapt and evolve in nuanced ways. Purpose. This study aims to examine how Sufism is practiced, perceived, and institutionalized within both urban and rural Muslim communities in Indonesia. The research investigates the social, spiritual, and cultural factors that influence the persistence and transformation of Sufi traditions in the context of modern life. Method. Employing a qualitative comparative approach, the study conducted fieldwork in two locations: a metropolitan city (Jakarta) and a rural district in Central Java. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with 30 participants including religious leaders, followers of various tariqas (Sufi orders), and community members, supported by participant observation and document analysis. Results. Findings reveal that urban Sufi communities emphasize symbolic spirituality, self-development, and integration with digital platforms, while rural counterparts maintain traditional rituals, communal dhikr, and strong lineage-based networks. Despite contextual differences, both settings reflect a shared commitment to inner transformation and ethical living, with Sufism offering a counterbalance to materialism and ideological rigidity. Conclusion. The study concludes that Sufism continues to serve as a meaningful spiritual resource in Indonesian Islam, adapting to socio-cultural shifts while maintaining its core emphasis on personal piety and social harmony.
