Abstract

This study explores the concept of photosynthesis as described in the Qur'an. The research examines verses that reference plant life, such as Surah Al-An’am: 99, and analyzes their relevance to the process of photosynthesis, which involves chlorophyll, sunlight, and the production of oxygen. Through a comparative approach, the study contrasts two interpretations: the Ministry of Religion’s Tafsir Ilmi, which combines traditional exegesis with scientific insights to highlight the symbiotic relationship between faith and science, and Zaghlul An-Najjar’s Tafsir Ayat Al-Kauniyah, which delves into specific scientific elements within the Qur'anic text. This study emphasizes how both interpretations seek to reconcile religious teachings with modern scientific understanding, providing readers with a multifaceted view of how photosynthesis is portrayed in Islamic scripture. It highlights key verses linking natural processes to divine creation, suggesting that scientific phenomena like photosynthesis are aligned with Islamic teachings on the interdependence between nature and spirituality. The findings underscore the Qur'an’s relevance to contemporary science and its potential to inspire deeper ecological awareness within the framework of religious belief.

Abstract

This paper aims to explore the concept of istiṭā‘ah in hajj according to Ibn ‘Āshūr ini his Tafsir al-Taḥrīr wa al-Tanwīr and implementation. This study employs a qualitative approach, specifically library research, utilizing written literature as the primary data source. The findings indicate that Ibn ‘Āshūr’s view Istiṭā‘ah encompasses both physical and financial capabilities Physical capability means that the individual must be in good health and able to undertake the journey for Hajj, while financial capability refers to having sufficient funds without neglecting the basic needs of their family. The implementation of this understanding allows for someone to delegate their Hajj to another person if they are suffering from a severe illness or have passed away. Conversely, performing Hajj is prohibited for those relying on loaned funds or still in debt, as these conditions are considered to not meet the Istiṭā‘ah requirement.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of Islamic Religious Education  in enhancing students' religious attitudes in the digital era. With the advancement of technology and digital media, students now have increasingly broad access to diverse information, including content related to religious values. However, this convenience also brings new challenges, such as the spread of less credible information and content that may not align with religious values. Therefore, an effective educational approach is needed so that PAI can improve students' understanding, faith, and religious attitudes. This research uses a quantitative method with a survey approach. The study respondents consist of 10th and 11th-grade students from several high schools that have implemented technology-based PAI learning methods, such as digital learning applications and social media. Data was collected through questionnaires that included questions about changes in students' religious attitudes after participating in PAI learning in the digital era. Data analysis was conducted using statistical tests to determine the relationship between digital PAI learning and students' religious attitudes. The study results indicate that PAI learning using digital media has a significant positive impact on enhancing students' religious attitudes. Digital media helps students understand material in a more engaging, interactive, and accessible manner. Additionally, the use of digital platforms in PAI reinforces religious values amidst various influences from online content. However, its effectiveness heavily relies on teacher guidance and the careful selection of content to ensure material remains aligned with religious educational goals.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze and identify the process of transforming the Islamic Religious Education curriculum in schools to face the challenges of globalization and multiculturalism. The transformation of the Islamic Religious Education curriculum in schools has become an urgent need in response to the challenges of globalization and multiculturalism, which increasingly affect the social and cultural life of society. Globalization, with its wide-ranging impacts on technology, economy, culture, and communication, influences how students understand the world and the values that evolve around them. On the other hand, multiculturalism, marked by the diversity of ethnicities, religions, and cultures in Indonesia, demands an education system that teaches tolerance, mutual respect, and the ability to live harmoniously amidst differences. The process of curriculum transformation in schools faces the challenges of globalization and multiculturalism. This method is chosen because it can provide a holistic understanding of the phenomena occurring within the context of education and how the curriculum is adapted to global and diverse developments in line with the changing times. Through an adaptive and inclusive curriculum transformation, Islamic Religious Education can play an important role in shaping a generation that is not only intellectually intelligent but also has strong character, based on religious moral values that can face the challenges of globalization and cultural diversity wisely. Thus, Islamic Religious Education will remain relevant in shaping individuals who are ready to contribute to peace and the progress of global society.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the concept of the word "sea" in the Qur'an using a semantic approach according to Toshihiko Izutsu. Izutsu's profound semantic theory is applied to analyze this concept in order to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the meaning contained in "the sea." This research employs a qualitative approach involving the analysis of the content of the Qur'an. Although the Arabic word "البحر" (al-bahr) literally means "sea," its meaning is expanded to encompass spiritual, philosophical, and symbolic aspects. In several surahs, the word "البحر" is mentioned sixty times. This study demonstrates that the sea not only plays an important role in human life but also serves as a symbol of goodness, mercy, and divine power in creating and managing the universe. The sea also represents values such as tawakkul (trust in God), gratitude, and perseverance in the face of life's trials and tribulations. The study finds that the concept of "the sea" in the Qur'an is both complex and encompasses many metaphysical and physical meanings. Toshihiko Izutsu's exegesis reveals the truth of the Qur'an and its impact on knowledge, particularly in the field of oceanography; his semantic approach aids in understanding the depth of the word's meaning and provides deeper insights to readers regarding this phenomenon.
