Using a descriptive qualitative case study design, the research emphasizes a comprehensive understanding of the characteristics, conditions, and phenomena related to educational transformation. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation.

This curriculum represents the integration of transformative leadership through key leadership dimensions: influence, inspiration, intellectual stimulation, and visionary thinking. These dimensions are manifested in a clear vision and mission that guide all elements of the educational institution. The Quba curriculum is grounded in the Qur’an and Hadith, aiming to shape students’ cognitive, emotional, and spiritual capacities. Its impact can be observed in students’ attitudes, character formation, and knowledge development. The curriculum is implemented through integrated learning activities both in classrooms and dormitory life, creating a holistic educational environment. This modernization reflects an adaptive effort within the Islamic education system to balance intellectual and emotional-spiritual intelligence in response to globalization. The study recommends broader collaboration with public schools and external institutions to foster innovative and adaptive curriculum development.
