Abstract

This research aims to describe the initial reading difficulties of class 1A students at SD Negeri 1 Pagundan, Kuningan. This research uses descriptive qualitative methods with the research subjects being teachers and class 1A students. Data was collected through interviews, observation and documentation. The research results showed that around 44.4% of students experienced difficulty in beginning reading. These difficulties include an inability to read syllables, word for word, diphthongs, clusters, and diagraphs; not yet able to read consonants; not being able to read vowels correctly and repeating and paraphrasing incorrectly; and don't know the meaning of the words. To overcome this difficulty, teachers provide special guidance to students who need greater attention. Teachers also use letter cards and story books as visual aids to make the learning process more interactive. In addition, regular reading practice is carried out both at school and at home through small groups of students to prioritize those who need additional help. Encouraging parent participation in their child's learning process is also an important part of this strategy.

Abstract

The character of education will give color to national character education. Therefore, education is a transformation towards the best educational output. All of us as children of the nation are result of education. Both through forging informal, formal and non-formal education which are the three types of education recognized in Indonesia. Our education is education that comes from heaven and is applied by looking at the reality of the earth. Qur'ani-based education is an education that will deliver people to the achievement of national peace in the future. As an intellectual, of course we don't think short that the Qur'an only discusses only regarding worship. The aim of this research is to find out the role of Qur'an in building national character. This research method uses library research and is descriptive, analytic and comparative. Source of data used in this research comes from primary and secondary data. The goal of Qur'anic character education is to produce students with Qur'anic character. In order to create people with character, students must be directed from an early age to understand the Qur'an by contemplating it; read, study, practice and teach it. The character of the Qur'anic nation is born from education that also has a Qur'anic character. Therefore, the state must provide wider space for Islamic religious education in the national law and curriculum. Because, it is a fact that Muslim students in Indonesia are more likely to get education in general education compared to religious education such as Islamic boarding schools or madrasah

Abstract

Women's leadership is a topic that is receiving increasing attention in various fields, including politics, business, education and social affairs. As time goes by, women have demonstrated their capacity and competence to lead, inspire and bring about positive change. While still facing various challenges, such as gender stereotypes and inequality of opportunity, many women have proved that they are capable of being effective and visionary leaders. This article discusses women's leadership in Surah An-Naml verses 23-44, which contains the story between Prophet Sulaiman and Queen Saba’. This story allegedly provides an ideal picture of women's leadership. This research uses a library approach. Data and data sources are obtained from the Al-Qur'an surah An-Naml verses 23-44. Data collection techniques are obtained through note-taking. The analysis technique uses an interpretive descriptive approach with the hermeneutical theory ma'a cum maghza. The research results show that the figure of a female leader as stated in the story of Prophet Sulaiman and Queen Saba’ in Surah An-Naml Verses 23-44 produces the qualifications of a female leader who has social and material power, thinks open minded towards opponents or opposition, is democratic and a leader who admits mistakes and accepts the truth.

Abstract

This research aims to identify and analyze the strategies used by Islamic Religious Education teachers in overcoming students' difficulties in reading the Qur'an at SMP IT Masjid Syuhada Yogyakarta. The method used is descriptive qualitative with a phenomenological approach. The research results show that at SMP IT Masjid Syuhada, the tilawati method is used by teachers as a strategy to help students who have difficulty reading the Qur'an. The teachers strive to make the learning process more effective and enjoyable so that the students can read the Quran correctly and fluently using the rost technique. With this method, it is hoped that students will not only learn to read the Qur'an but also understand the contents of the holy book. The tilawati method has several advantages and disadvantages. This method balances classical and individual learning, and uses a variety of songs to maintain student interest. However, some weaknesses that need to be considered are the longer time requirement, limited facilities, the need for trained teachers, and the challenge of adapting this method for students with varying abilities.

Abstract

The prank phenomenon has become a rampant trend among the millennial generation, especially in the realm of social media. Pranks are often thought of as a form of entertainment and humor, but in some cases, the practice can have a negative impact, including harming the other party both physically and psychologically. In Islam, there are limits to joking that emphasize honesty, ethics, and not harming others. This research aims to criticize various academic studies that discuss the phenomenon of prank in the perspective of the Qur'an. Pranks as a social phenomenon that develops in the digital era are often studied from various perspectives, including Qur'anic interpretation, hadith, psychology, and Islamic law. Using the library research method, this study evaluates the weaknesses and advantages of previous studies related to prank, especially in terms of methods, sources of interpretation used, and the relevance of the study in the modern social context. The results of the analysis show that most of the previous research is still limited to certain interpretations, lacks consideration of psychological and sociological aspects, and is minimal in discussing legal regulations related to pranks on social media. This study is expected to provide new insights in examining the phenomenon of pranks more comprehensively, taking into account a broader perspective in Islamic studies and social sciences.

Abstract

Stoicism is a philosophy that emphasizes self-control, acceptance of fate, and the achievement of inner peace, offering a relevant perspective for addressing the quarter-life crisis. Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah, a prominent scholar in Islamic tradition, holds views aligned with Stoicism through his teachings on patience and reliance on God. The quarter-life crisis itself is a psychological crisis typically experienced by individuals in their 20s to 30s, characterized by confusion, anxiety, and uncertainty regarding life purpose and the future. This research aims to analyze Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah's thoughts within the framework of Stoicism and how his teachings can serve as a spiritual solution to the quarter-life crisis. The research employs a qualitative approach with a descriptive-analytical method. The primary sources are his works, such as Madarij As-Salikin and Zad al-Ma'ad, alongside Stoicism literature as a comparison. This study finds significant similarities between Stoicism and Ibn Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah's thoughts, especially in terms of accepting fate and self-control. The teachings of sabr and tawakkul advocated by Ibn Qayyim prove relevant as practical solutions to help individuals achieve inner peace and emotional stability when facing a quarter-life crisis.
