Abstract

The issue of “santri slavery” that has circulated widely on social media has distorted the meaning of pesantren education by framing the teacher–student relationship through a paradigm of power rather than spirituality. This narration obscures the moral values underlying the traditional Islamic educational system and has generated public misunderstanding of the practice of devotion (khidmah). This study phenomenologically examines the concept of teacher’s ridha as both the moral foundation of Islamic educational ethics and a form of cultural resistance against accusations of exploitation in modern public discourse. Employing a qualitative approach with a hermeneutic phenomenological design, the research was conducted in three traditional pesantren in East Java, involving 10 active students (santri), 4 teachers (ustaz), and 3 alumni as the participants. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and focus group discussions (FGD), and analyzed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA). The findings reveal that teacher’s ridha serves as a value structure that governs the teacher–student relationship within a framework of compassion and moral responsibility rather than hierarchical domination. The practice of khidmah is understood as a form of experiential learning that cultivates sincerity, patience, and spiritual character formation. At the same time, the value of teacher’s ridha functions as a moral and symbolic mechanism of resistance to exploitation narratives by redefining devotion as an expression of inner freedom. Furthermore, pesantren have begun utilizing digital media to disseminate alternative narratives grounded in spirituality and adab (ethical conduct). Theoretically, teacher’s ridha is not merely an ethical value but also an epistemological mechanism in the formation of moral subjects, offering an alternative framework to secular paradigms by integrating spiritual legitimacy, exemplary conduct, and lived sincerity. Thus, teacher’s ridha operates as an authentic symbol of liberating Islamic education and as a form of cultural capital that enables pesantren to sustain their moral integrity amid the pressures of modernity.

Abstract

Marriage registration in Indonesia continues to be perceived merely as an administrative formality rather than a binding legal duty, leading many couples to neglect it. This condition results in an imbalance that weakens legal protection for women and children, particularly in cases of serial or unregistered marriages. This study examines the urgency of marriage registration from the perspectives of Islamic law and national law, and its implications for protecting family rights. Employing a qualitative methodology with normative and sociological legal approaches, this research also incorporates policy analysis of marriage registration practices in several Islamic countries. The findings demonstrate that marriage registration plays a strategic role in ensuring legal certainty, safeguarding the rights of women and children, and maintaining social order. From the perspective of the maqāṣid al-sharīʿah, marriage registration serves as a crucial instrument for protecting lineage (ḥifẓ al-nasl) and preventing injustice within the family. Accordingly, this study underscores the urgent need to reform the Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI) and strengthen public legal education to raise awareness of the importance of marriage registration. These findings affirm that marriage registration should be recognized as a binding legal obligation that extends beyond administrative purposes and constitutes a fundamental element of family law protection in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study examines and compares the practice of multiculturalism in Indonesia and Malaysia by situating it within their respective historical trajectories, policy frameworks, and implementation patterns in social and educational contexts. The research employs a qualitative library research design, drawing on relevant scholarly literature in the social sciences, religious studies, and the humanities. Data were analyzed using content analysis and a comparative approach, involving data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing/verification. The findings indicate that multicultural practices in Indonesia and Malaysia exhibit both similarities and differences shaped by each country's historical, cultural, and political contexts. In Indonesia, multiculturalism is grounded in the national motto Bhinneka Tunggal Ika, whereas in Malaysia it is articulated through the principle of unity embodied in the Rukun Negara. At the policy level, Indonesia constitutionally recognizes diversity through inclusive measures, such as the public recognition of religious holidays and support for the preservation of local cultures. In contrast, Malaysia adopts a National Cultural Policy, which some groups have criticized for its limited sensitivity to cultural diversity. Linguistically, Indonesian functions as a unifying national language across diverse ethnic groups, while Malaysia recognizes Malay, English, and Chinese as official languages, reflecting its multicultural composition and educational arrangements. In terms of religion, Indonesia formally acknowledges and protects multiple religions and the rights of religious minorities. In contrast, Malaysia grants Islam a privileged position as the state's official religion.

Abstract

This research investigates the relationship between Sharia financial literacy, access to Islamic financing, and the sustainability of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in East Kalimantan, Indonesia—a strategically important region experiencing accelerated development as the site of the country’s new capital. Adopting a mixed-methods design, the study integrates quantitative data from a survey of 300 MSMEs analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with qualitative evidence obtained through in-depth interviews with MSME actors, Islamic bankers, and regulators. The quantitative results indicate that the constructs of Access to Capital and MSME Resilience exhibit strong reliability and validity, while the Financial Literacy construct requires further refinement, highlighting that general financial knowledge does not necessarily translate into competence in Sharia-compliant financial products. Qualitative findings further identify a communication gap between MSME owners’ demand for accessible and practical financial guidance and the complexity of offerings provided by financial institutions. The study concludes that strengthening MSME sustainability necessitates policy interventions that address these gaps through targeted Sharia financial education and inclusive Islamic financing schemes. This research contributes a validated holistic framework and provides practical policy recommendations for the development of contextualized Islamic financial literacy programs and digital inclusion strategies to reinforce Indonesia’s Sharia-based MSME ecosystem.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the concept of the integration of religion and science from Nidhal Guessoum’s perspective, with a particular focus on its epistemological dimension and its relevance to the development of contemporary Islamic education. The study is motivated by the limited number of works that examine in depth the epistemological aspects of Guessoum’s integrative paradigm, while discourse on the integration of knowledge in the Muslim world has largely been dominated by normative approaches such as the Islamization of knowledge. This research employs a library research method with source triangulation and a descriptive-analytical approach through an examination of Guessoum’s major works and relevant scholarly literature. The findings indicate that the paradigm of knowledge integration he proposes is grounded in three main principles: the non-contradiction between revelation and science, layered interpretation, and theistic falsification. This approach rejects rigid models of i‘jaz al-Qur’an and the Islamization of knowledge, while emphasizing a rational dialogue between religion and science. This study contributes theoretically to the strengthening of Islamic epistemology and offers practical implications for the development of Islamic education that is scientific, contextual, and open to scientific advancement.

Abstract

This article explores the Sufi philosophy of Abu Hamid al-Ghazali as articulated in al-Munqidz min al-Dhalal. It examines the continuing relevance of al-Ghazali's Sufi thought to contemporary Islamic spirituality, with particular emphasis on education and the promotion of religious moderation. Employing a qualitative library-based research method, the study analyzes classical and modern primary and secondary sources. The findings reveal that spiritual purification (tazkiyat al-nafs) and the harmonization of intellect and inner conscience constitute fundamental pathways toward ma'rifatullah. Al-Ghazali's ideas remain significant for cultivating an Islamic spirituality that is rational, moderate, and ethically grounded. These insights advance Islamic studies and educational practice, especially in the design of a holistic educational framework capable of responding to modern spiritual challenges.

Abstract

The rapid development of digital technology has created new opportunities and challenges in higher education, particularly for Muslim students who are expected to integrate Islamic values with entrepreneurial practices. This study analyzes students as agents of Islamic technopreneurship in the digital era by examining the influence of digital literacy on Islamic entrepreneurship. The research employed a quantitative descriptive design with linear regression analysis, involving 48 first-year students from the Early Childhood Islamic Education (PIAUD) and Islamic Education Management (MPI) programs at STIT Nusantara Bekasi who participated in the 2025 orientation program themed “Independent and Visionary Students: Building Islamic Entrepreneurship Based on Halal, Sunnah, and Local Wisdom in the Digital Era. Data were collected through Likert-scale questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive statistics, normality tests, homogeneity tests, and linear regression. The results show that the classical assumptions of normality and homogeneity were met, supporting the validity of the regression model. Furthermore, the findings reveal that digital literacy significantly influences Islamic entrepreneurship, with a contribution of 20.1%. This indicates that students’ digital competencies positively strengthen entrepreneurial values such as honesty, trustworthiness, and social benefit. The study concludes that students play an essential role as agents of Islamic technopreneurship, capable of integrating digital innovation with halal business principles and local wisdom. Practically, the results emphasize the importance for higher education institutions to enhance curriculum and training programs that merge digital skills with Islamic ethical values, thereby preparing competitive and visionary Muslim technopreneurs for the global marketplace.

Abstract

The phenomenon of clickbait news dissemination in online media has become a serious concern due to its potential influence on readers’ mindsets and behavior, particularly within Muslim communities. This study aims to analyze the impact of clickbait news on readers of PALTV.disway.id in Palembang City from the perspective of Islamic communication. The research employs a qualitative method with a descriptive approach, utilizing observation, in-depth interviews with active readers, journalists, and religious figures, as well as documentation analysis. The findings indicate that clickbait news frequently leads to information misunderstanding and a decline in the quality of readers’ Islamic understanding, especially when headlines are not aligned with the content. From the perspective of Islamic communication, such practices contradict the principles of ṣidq (truthfulness), tablīgh (transparency), and amānah (trustworthiness) in information dissemination. Another finding reveals an increased level of skepticism toward media outlets that present Islamic issues, driven by the frequent use of provocative headlines unsupported by adequate content. This study highlights the urgency of integrity in Islamic journalism and the importance of media literacy within society. The integration of digital media analysis with Islamic communication principles constitutes the originality of this research. The results are expected to provide practical contributions for media practitioners, government institutions, and da‘wah organizations in formulating more ethical communication strategies, as well as academic contributions to the development of Islamic communication studies in the digital era.

Abstract

Standpoint epistemology, as articulated by Sandra Harding, challenges the claim of neutrality in modern science by situating knowledge within social relations of power. This framework emphasizes the epistemic significance of marginalized social positions as critical sites for revealing structural bias in knowledge production. Despite its extensive discussion within secular feminist theory and philosophy of science, standpoint epistemology has rarely been examined through Islamic epistemological frameworks. This study aims to critically examine Sandra Harding’s standpoint epistemology through the perspective of Islamic epistemology grounded in the principle of tawhid (divine unity). The research employs qualitative conceptual analysis using philosophical-critical methods, examining Harding’s major works in dialogue with the epistemological thought of Syed Muhammad Naquib al-Attas to assess their underlying assumptions, limitations, and epistemic implications. This article makes a conceptual contribution by proposing a tawhid-based reformulation of knowledge that offers a theologically grounded alternative to relativistic epistemic frameworks while retaining the ethical and critical insights of feminist standpoint epistemology.
