Abstract

This study aims to analyze the strategies of honesty value education based on teacher exemplarity and religious habituation at SDN Kemiri Sewu 1 Pandaan, Pasuruan, and to identify the supporting and inhibiting factors within the context of Islamic character education. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through participatory observation, in-depth interviews with the principal, Islamic Education (PAI) teachers, and students, as well as documentation of daily religious activities. The data were analyzed descriptively through the stages of reduction, display, and verification. The findings indicate that teacher exemplarity is the core strategy in fostering honesty values through the hidden curriculum, where teachers’ behaviors such as discipline, integrity, and the courage to admit mistakes serve as moral models for students to emulate. Religious habituation through activities like salat dhuha, tadarus, and collective prayers acts as a reinforcing mechanism that strengthens moral awareness and internalizes honesty into daily behavior. The supporting factors include the principal’s leadership, the school’s religious environment, and positive emotional bonds between teachers and students. In contrast, inhibiting factors arise from family background diversity, digital media influence, and limited time allocation for formal PAI learning. This study concludes that the synergy between teacher exemplarity, religious habituation, and the school’s moral ecology effectively nurtures honesty as a spiritual and moral identity grounded in Islamic faith and practice.

Abstract

Instilling nationalistic values in Generation Z at Islamic boarding schools faces significant challenges amid rapid technological development and globalization. Many Generation Z students are strongly exposed to global culture through social media, which has weakened their orientation towards national values. Although Islamic boarding schools play a central role in character education, research examining how Islamic boarding schools can effectively instill nationalism in Generation Z is still very limited. This study aims to identify the role of the Sunan Bonang Panca Mulya Islamic Boarding School in instilling a spirit of nationalism in Generation Z students and to reveal the challenges faced in the process. The method used in this study is a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and analysis of documents related to national education programs. The results of the study show that although the pesantren has integrated nationalism education into the curriculum, several major challenges, such as low interest in history and limited technological facilities, remain obstacles to effective implementation. This study contributes by offering recommendations on innovations in technology-based nationalism teaching, as well as the use of social media as a more attractive means of national education for santri.

Abstract

This study examines the tendency to simplify the meaning of the obligation to wear the hijab in society, where this obligation is understood only as a physical covering and disregards the ethical and social aspects mandated by the Quran. The main objective of this research is to examine the essence and scope of the hijab through an interpretation of Surah An-Nur verse 31 and Al-Ahzab verse 59, in order to formulate an ideal implementation framework that is adaptive to modern challenges. The method used is qualitative, focusing on an in-depth literature review of the Quran, tafsir works (especially Al-Misbah and Ibn Kathir), and academic literature. The findings indicate a close relationship between personal ethics (khimar, Ghadul Bashar) and self-representation in public spaces (jilbab). It is concluded that a complete Muslim woman's identity requires complete harmony between the visual manifestation of the hijab and internal moral integrity, where moral values must be the primary foundation of one's appearance. This research contributes to presenting a conceptual model of Islamic law regarding the limitations and nature of the hijab to support moderate religious practices.

Abstract

This study aims to explore and analyze Islamic views and paradigms regarding motivation and their application in the educational environment. The research method used is a qualitative approach with a focus on text and context analysis from primary Islamic sources as well as interviews with relevant parties in the educational environment. Through in-depth analysis of classical texts, hadith, and contemporary literature, this research gains an understanding of Islamic views on motivational factors, such as life goals, spiritual satisfaction, and social responsibility. The results of the research show that in the Islamic paradigm, motivation is not only material, but also spiritual and moral. Life goals that are directed towards achieving the hereafter provide a transcendental dimension in individual motivation. Motivation is strengthened by inner satisfaction and balance between worldly and spiritual needs. Social responsibility is also a motivator, in which individuals are motivated to provide benefits to society and the environment

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the utilization of the Adi Hidayat Official YouTube channel as a medium for strengthening religious literacy in Islamic Religious Education (PAI). Using a qualitative approach, the primary data were obtained through tracking and content analysis of the videos on the channel, while supporting data were sourced from relevant literature, journal articles, and previous research. The results of the study indicate that the content presented by Ustadz Adi Hidayat covers fundamental PAI material such as creed, morals, and worship, which is delivered systematically, logically, and based on classical references. The presentation of material, such as methods for memorizing the Qur’an, early childhood education through the story of the family of Imran, and habituating children to perform prayers, has been proven to contribute to the understanding and internalization of Islamic values among the audience. Content relevance analysis shows that the material presented aligns with the principles of Islamic Religious Education (PAI), reflects Qur'anic and Prophetic values, and emphasizes role modeling and digital ethics. Thus, the Adi Hidayat Official Channel plays a significant role as an Islamic learning medium that is adaptive to the needs of the digital generation and effective in strengthening the religious literacy of the community.

Abstract

This study aimed to explore the synergy between educational activities, Islamic scholarly traditions, and community engagement implemented at Pondok Pesantren Nurul Cholil Bangkalan. The synergy was understood as an integrated pattern connecting formal and non-formal learning with the pesantren’s intellectual culture and social service practices. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach using a case study design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis. The findings indicated that the educational process at Pondok Pesantren Nurul Cholil had been carried out through a combination of the madrasiyah curriculum and progressive mastery of classical Islamic texts. Islamic scholarly activities were strengthened through regular kitab discussions, thematic study groups, and Bahtsul Masail forums that functioned as spaces for dialectical reasoning and legal analysis. Meanwhile, community engagement programs were realized through the deployment of teaching assistants, religious guidance, and social services that provided students with practical experience in applying their knowledge.These results demonstrated that the synergy of the three aspects formed a holistic and sustainable model of pesantren education that is responsive to contemporary societal needs.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the implementation of Amaliyah Jumat activities as an effort to develop the religiosity of students at SD Plus Murung Pudak. This research employs a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data sources consist of the school principal, Islamic Religious Education (PAI) teachers, activity supervisors, and students of grades IV–VI. Data were collected through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. Data validity was verified using source triangulation and technique triangulation. Data analysis followed the Miles, Huberman, and Saldana interactive model, encompassing data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. This study specifically focuses on Muslim students who participate in the Amaliyah Jumat program, while non-Muslim students conduct their own worship activities in a school-designated hall and also take part in almsgiving as a shared expression of social solidarity. The findings indicate that: (1) Amaliyah Jumat activities at SD Plus Murung Pudak are held every Friday, covering congregational Dhuha prayer, Quranic recitation, short religious speeches delivered by students, and almsgiving participated in by students of all faiths; (2) these activities consistently contribute to the enhancement of five dimensions of student religiosity, namely the ideological, ritualistic, experiential, intellectual, and consequential dimensions; (3) the primary supporting factors are the commitment of school leadership, teacher exemplary conduct, and parental support, while the inhibiting factors include time constraints and inconsistency among some students. These findings confirm that a structured and sustained Amaliyah Jumat program constitutes an effective instrument for fostering student religiosity in elementary schools, in alignment with the vision of SD Plus Murung Pudak, which upholds faith and piety as the foundation of education.

Abstract

This study was motivated by the limited research on the role of voluntary fasting in developing students’ self-regulation, even though Monday–Thursday fasting and Ayyamul Bidh fasting are common practices in Islamic boarding schools (pesantren). The study employed a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach. Data were collected from November to December 2025 through in-depth interviews with seven students (santri), two supervising teachers (ustadz), and one boarding school administrator, supported by observations and document analysis. Data were analyzed using Moustakas’ phenomenological method. The findings reveal that voluntary fasting is understood by the students as a form of self-discipline (mujahadatun nafs) that helps them control their desires, develop time discipline through sahur (pre-dawn meals), worship, study, and breaking the fast, and strengthen their identity as santri. According to the teachers and administrators, students who regularly practice voluntary fasting tend to be more patient, disciplined, less likely to violate school regulations, and more consistent in Qur’anic memorization and muthala’ah (independent study). These findings indicate that voluntary fasting functions not only as a personal act of worship but also as an effective means of spiritual education in fostering students’ self-regulation through the internalization of tazkiyatun nafs (self-purification) values and self-control.

Abstract

The development of digital technology has brought about significant changes in the world of education, including in the teaching of Islamic Religious Education. Although technology provides easier access to information, it also poses challenges in shaping students’ character, particularly in terms of discipline and academic responsibility. Therefore, a reconfiguration of learning strategies focused on character building is required to address these challenges. This study employed a qualitative descriptive approach and was conducted at a senior secondary school in Pekanbaru. Data were collected through observation, interviews and documentation, and analysed by sorting, presenting and drawing conclusions, with validity ensured through triangulation. Findings indicate that learning strategies combine conventional methods with digital media, but students’ discipline and academic responsibility still require improvement. Character building is implemented through habit formation, role modelling, and more active digital-based strategies. Supporting factors include school facilities and policies, whilst inhibiting factors involve low student awareness and the use of gadgets. This study concludes that the reconstruction of character-based learning strategies plays a crucial role in enhancing students’ discipline and academic responsibility in the digital age.

Abstract

Islamic Religious Education has an important role in increasing learning interest and shaping students’ religious practices, however in reality there is still a low level of learning interest and religious practices of students in elementary schools that are not yet optimal. Therefore, appropriate strategies from Islamic Religious Education teachers are needed to overcome these problems. This study aims to analyze the strategies of Islamic Religious Education teachers in increasing learning interest and religious practices of students at SDN 003 Tebing. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with Islamic Religious Education teachers as the main informants. Data collection techniques were carried out through observation, interviews, and documentation, while data analysis used an interactive model which includes data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing with validity testing through source and method triangulation. The results of the study show that the teacher's strategies in increasing students’ learning interest are carried out through the use of varied teaching methods, providing motivation, and relating material to daily life, while strategies in increasing religious practices are carried out through habituation of religious activities and teacher exemplification. There are supporting factors in the form of school support and a conducive learning environment as well as inhibiting factors in the form of limited time, facilities and infrastructure, and differences in student motivation. Overall, the strategies of Islamic Religious Education teachers implemented are quite effective in increasing students’ learning interest and religious practices, though further development and optimization efforts are still needed so that the results achieved are more maximal.
