Abstract

This article aims to analyze strategies, methods and models for internalizing the values of religious moderation through the role of teachers and learning Islamic education through curriculum and learning, as well as their implications for forming student character. This research uses a qualitative approach. Data collection techniques use semi-structured interviews, supporting documentation and observations of a series of learning processes in and outside the classroom. Checking the validity of the data uses triangulation techniques. Data analysis was carried out using the stages of data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and concluding/verification. This research shows that internalising religious moderation values includes planning, implementation, organizing and evaluation. Several methods of internalizing the importance of religious moderation include exemplary methods, motivation, habituation, insertion methods, enforcing rules and choosing teaching methods. In general, internalization can be grouped through the learning culture approach in the classroom and school culture. The stages include transforming values, building communication and interaction between teachers and students and synergizing mental attitudes and personalities. The model for integrating the importance of religious moderation through the Islamic education curriculum and learning can be carried out using informative insertion, confirmative insertion and corrective insertion methods. The implications of internalizing the values of religious moderation positively impact increasing student discipline, tolerance, compliance with school rules, respect, and social awareness.

Abstract

Since Islamic boarding school-based madrasas maintain books as a source of history learning, teachers face serious challenges, form students' critical and chronological thinking skills through book study. This encourages a transformation of history learning, which has been taking place traditionally. This study aims to explore and describe book-based history teaching and learning to improve student competence. This research is qualitative, using a case study type. Data collection techniques use interviews, observation and documentation. Data is analyzed using relevant theories or previous research findings. Data validity is carried out by extending observations. This study found that book-based history learning was transformed by formulating personal-social goals without ignoring transformative goals, emphasizing a chronological approach in education, and developing CRI (Constructed Response Items) model evaluation questions. Book-based learning activities are different from using modern textbooks. Teachers' creative and innovative efforts are needed to realise learning objectives in madrasas through book learning. Apart from mastering the content, the national curriculum is also directed at developing critical, creative, communicative, collaborative and literacy skills.

Abstract

This study examines the symbolic meaning of students' social interactions with ustadz, teachers, fellow students, and parents at the Muhammadiyah Boarding School Al-Manar South Sumatra. Using a descriptive qualitative approach based on case studies, this study used observation, interviews, and documentation as data collection techniques. Analysis techniques included coding and categorizing the collected data to identify related patterns and themes. This study's findings revealed that students' interactions with ustadz and teachers are symbolized by bowing and kissing the hand, reflecting respect, religious obedience, and social hierarchy. These traditions strengthen the cultural and spiritual bonds between students and their teachers. Among fellow students, calling each other akhi (brother) and ukhti (sister) symbolizes respect, unity, and leadership development. These interactions help strengthen social structures and foster character development. Interactions with parents expressed through hand kissing and santri sambangan (visits) reflect respect, emotional connection, and community support. This symbolic interaction serves as character education for the students, instilling social ethics and cultural continuity. However, the focus of the study on one pesantren limits its generalizability. Future research should explore symbolic interactions in other pesantren to provide a broader perspective. The originality of this study lies in its focus on the role of symbols in shaping hierarchies and social identities in pesantren. By examining the pesantren educational environment, this study offers new insights into how symbols influence the dynamics of power, order, and communal values.

Abstract

This study examines the values ​​of Islamic religious education in a tradition called Patuq which is carried out after the death ceremony. With a qualitative approach and case study type, this research was conducted. Data were obtained from primary sources in the form of community leaders and family members, while supporting data were obtained from experts who are familiar with Lombok culture and religious institutions. The data collection used observation, interview and documentation techniques. While the analysis used the Miles and Huberman model. For data validity, triangulation of sources and methods was used. The results of this study show the values ​​of Islamic education in the Patuq tradition including; Shadaqah values, cooperation and solidarity, respect for the deceased, holiness and purity. The moral lessons that can be learned from this tradition are Patience, Obedience, Togetherness, Gratitude, Simplicity, and Self-Control. Each of these values ​​contributes to the development of character and spiritual understanding of the community, in line with broader Islamic teachings. Research on the Patuq tradition highlights the integration of social and cultural values ​​in Islamic education. This approach emphasizes cooperation, community involvement, and the importance of charitable practices. By connecting religious teachings with local customs, educators can strengthen students’ cultural and religious identities while promoting empathy and social responsibility. This approach encourages collaborative learning, deepens understanding of the afterlife, and instills values ​​of cleanliness and purity, as well as fostering well-rounded individuals who embody Islamic ethics in their interactions.

Abstract

This study focuses on implementing the Merdeka curriculum from the perspective of its management challenges, exploring the experiences and perceptions of stakeholders related to implementing the Merdeka Curriculum at MAN Jombang and using a qualitative study, interviews, observations, and documentation as data collection techniques. Data analysis used data reduction, coding, and theme identification stages. To ensure data validity, the researcher applied source triangulation. The study findings indicate that implementing the Merdeka Curriculum faces challenges related to technology access and teacher readiness. Technology limitations, including unequal access to devices, hinder effective project-based learning, and administrative staff acknowledge the need for infrastructure improvements. Students appreciate the curriculum's focus on personal interests but need more guidance to navigate independent learning. Teachers have received training in project-based learning, but many teachers need help implementing new methods effectively. Although progress has been made, continued support, increased resources, and collaborative efforts among stakeholders are critical to successfully implementing the Merdeka Curriculum and improving educational outcomes. Limitations of the study include limited observation time and potential bias in participant responses. This study has yet to explore the long-term impacts of implementing the Merdeka Curriculum. Stakeholder collaboration research can provide deeper insights into practical strategies to address challenges and improve educational outcomes in Islamic education.

Abstract

This article examines collaboration as a core value in Islamic education, focusing on the partnership between two funeral organizations: the Muhammadiyah Branch Leadership Muslim Corpse Association (RKM PCM Palangkaraya) and the Shalahuddin Muslim Family Association (KKM Shalahuddin), which is affiliated with the University of Palangkaraya. The study utilizes a qualitative multi-case research approach to analyze the nature of cooperation, motivations, benefits, obstacles, and challenges in the kifayah process between the two families. Data collection methods included interviews with organizational administrators, observations of the kifayah process, and analysis of organizational charter documents and membership fees. The findings revealed a clear division of responsibilities: RKM PCM Palangkaraya oversees the rituals of washing and praying for the deceased, while KKM Shalahuddin provides equipment and coordinates the burial. This collaboration is vital for ensuring that the burial aligns with Islamic law, despite facing challenges such as communication barriers and funding limitations. The partnership enhances service delivery and nurtures mutual respect between the organizations. However, the lack of prior discussions regarding tahlil practices may create confusion about roles and responsibilities. The study underscores the importance of incorporating effective communication and mutual understanding into educational curricula, allowing students to grasp the values of cooperation and the principles of corpse management in Islam. This knowledge ultimately fosters character development and community skills, highlighting education's role in addressing societal needs within an Islamic framework. Future research is recommended to further investigate tahlil practices in this collaborative context to clarify the roles and responsibilities of each organization.

Abstract

Although much research has been conducted in the context of the role of universities in society, research on the contribution of Islamic higher education in developing mosque-based non-formal education still needs to be explored. This study aims to identify the role of Islamic universities in supporting and strengthening the management of the Taman Pendidikan Al-Qur'an (TPQ) and mosque-based Majelis Taklim. This research uses a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach. Data were collected through interviews with university leaders, lecturers, mosque administrators, and students. Observations and documentation were taken from 5 campuses and 10 mosques in Mataram, Central Lombok, West Lombok, and East Lombok. Data analysis was carried out by organizing, interpreting, and narratively presenting data, then concluding. The study found that Islamic universities have contributed to preparing cadres of Islamic education, strengthening public awareness, conducting management capacity building, and providing religious speakers and campus ambassadors to strengthen TPQ and based-mosque Majelis Taklim. This study introduces a novel model in which Islamic universities and mosques collaborate to combine academic knowledge with community service within the framework of social capital theory. The success of this approach lies in creating a sustainable educational model and driving community transformation through a synergy grounded in Islamic values, transparent management, and the continuous development of human resources. This collaboration enhances religious education's relevance and fosters meaningful societal impact, making it a robust framework for educational and community advancement.
