Abstract

The term of Islam kaffah in the Qur'an is found in Surah Al-Baqarah [2]: 208. However, the term kaffah also appears in three other verses. Scholars differ in their opinions regarding the position of kaffah in that verse. Some refer to the word udkhulu and others to al-silm. Naturally, this leads to different interpretations and methods of implementation. This term is related to the issue of the caliphate, often advocated by radical groups in Indonesia. For example, Hizbut Tahrir Indonesia (HTI) defines it as the implementation of Islamic Sharia law and the caliphate system as the basis of the state. Therefore, this article has two objectives: to understand the correct interpretation of Islam kaffah in the Qur'an and to identify the deviations in understanding Islam kaffah in Indonesia. The method used in this research is critical analysis. The appropriate understanding of Islam kaffah is how a Muslim lives by following Sharia commands based on the Qur'an and Sunnah in totality, while respecting and not disturbing adherents of other religions. It also involves maintaining good relationships and preserving peace and tranquility in this pluralistic society, as established by Islamic leaders and revolutionary heroes during the independence era.

Abstract

Education plays a significant role in Islam, serving as a means to draw closer to Allah, instill good character, and improve the relationship between humans and the environment. In this context, sincerity, honor, and compensation for educators become relevant topics of discussion. This article explores the Islamic perspective on these three aspects and how they form the foundation of sustainable education. Through a review of the Qur'an and Hadith literature, as well as text analysis and interpretation, this article highlights the importance of sincerity in carrying out educational tasks and providing adequate recognition to educators. Islam views education as a long-term investment for both worldly and spiritual purposes, by providing honorable compensation to educators as an investment in the future of the community and to gain blessings in the Hereafter.
