Abstract

The Hajj Madrasah Program organized by Markaz Jam’iyyah Afaq Al-Ma’rifah, Saudi Arabia, represents an empowerment and accompaniment initiative for Indonesian Hajj pilgrims through integrated scholarly, spiritual, and practical religious guidance. This Community Service Program (Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat, PkM) aims to enhance the quality of Indonesian pilgrims’ Hajj performance by ensuring closer adherence to Islamic legal prescriptions through comprehensive understanding and continuous guidance. The program adopts a participatory approach implemented through religious short lectures (kultum), distribution of Hajj ritual guidebooks, and educational pilgrimages guided by qualified dā‘īs. The results indicate: (1) a significant improvement in pilgrims’ understanding of Hajj rituals as a result of intensive accompaniment and the use of structured guidebooks; (2) strengthened spiritual awareness through tazkiyat al-nafs activities and educational pilgrimages; and (3) increased pilgrim self-reliance facilitated by personalized consultations. The program’s contribution lies in its holistic approach—integrating education, spiritual development, and practical simulation—which offers an innovative model for Hajj guidance. Furthermore, the program serves as a training platform for dā‘īs, effectively bridging theoretical Islamic scholarship with applied religious practice.

Abstract

The Community Service Program (KKN) is a form of community engagement that implements the Tridharma of Higher Education. The KKN program of IAI STIBA Makassar was conducted in Tamasaju Village, Galesong Utara District, Takalar Regency, to strengthen religious development and support the realization of an Islamic society. This article aims to describe the program strategies, identify implementation challenges, and analyze its contribution to community religious activities. A participatory approach was employed through observation, needs assessment, program planning, implementation, and evaluation. Data were collected through observations, interviews, documentation, and field notes, and analyzed using a descriptive qualitative method. The findings show that educational institution-based religious development, collaboration with village authorities and community leaders, the DIROSA program, PELITA activities, and the distribution of Qur’ans and learning halaqahs increased community participation in religious activities. Major challenges included limited implementation time, varying participant abilities, and the need for sustainable post-program religious development.

Abstract

This community service program aimed to strengthen Muslim families’ awareness of the importance of household harmony in nurturing a rabbani generation through an Islamic parenting lecture in the GEMAR program of IAI STIBA Makassar’s community service program in Bontokanang Village. GEMAR, or Gebyar Meriah Anak Ramadan, was implemented as a children’s religious development program through several Islamic competitions, including the call to prayer, young preacher performance, daily prayer memorization, short surah memorization, and Qur’anic recitation, followed by an Islamic parenting lecture for parents and the community. This program employed a descriptive-qualitative method with an educative-participatory approach. Data were obtained through activity observation, documentation, KKN implementation notes, participant responses, the village head’s testimony, and community appreciation. The findings indicate that GEMAR functioned not merely as a children’s festival but also as a family education medium connecting children’s religious development, parental roles, and community support. The Islamic parenting lecture strengthened participants’ understanding of the family as the first educational environment, parental role modelling, healthy communication, and the actualization of sakinah, mawaddah, and rahmah values in children’s education. The positive community response and the village head’s testimony indicate that the lecture theme was relevant to the needs of Muslim families. Program sustainability was pursued through the handover of guidance and management to the South Galesong DPC so that the activities could continue in a more organized manner.

Abstract

The management of funerals is a collective obligation (fardhu kifayah) that requires understanding and technical skills in accordance with Islamic law. However, the community of Banyuanyara Village still faces limitations in the number of residents competent in the processes of washing, shrouding, and performing funeral prayers for the deceased, so its implementation tends to depend on a few religious leaders. This service activity aims to improve the religious competence and practical skills of the community through funeral management training. The method used is Participatory Action Research (PAR) with the stages of preparation, socialization, implementation, and evaluation. The activity was carried out on February 22, 2026, at Nurul Asfari Mosque involving religious leaders, village government, and the local community. Data collection techniques were carried out through observation, in-depth discussions, and documentation, while data analysis used a triangulation approach. The activity results showed an increase in participants' understanding of funeral fiqh as well as technical skills in washing, shrouding, and performing the funeral prayer. Community participation was quite high and involved various age groups. The challenges encountered included the participants' limited practical experience and the presence of local myths that caused hesitation to get involved. These challenges were addressed through a persuasive approach, step-by-step demonstrations, and intensive mentoring by speakers from Wahdah Islamiyah. This program has proven effective in strengthening the community's religious competence and encouraging residents' independence in carrying out the fardhu kifayah obligations properly and sustainably.

Abstract

This community service article describes the optimization of alms (sadaqah) and social assistance programs in easing the basic economic burdens of vulnerable residents and strengthening social empathy during the Kuliah Kerja Nyata (KKN) program in Campagaya Village, Galesong District, Takalar Regency. The program is positioned as community service rather than impact research on long-term economic welfare. Its objectives are to distribute assistance to eligible beneficiaries, provide short-term support for basic household needs, and build community trust and sympathy toward KKN social-religious activities. The method applied was a participatory community service approach using Participatory Action Research (PAR), direct door-to-door delivery, and community-based distribution. Beneficiaries were identified through observation, coordination with village officials, and vulnerability criteria, such as low-income households, elderly residents, widows, and families whose income depends on seasonal work. Program success was assessed through beneficiary accuracy, distribution records, documentation, brief interviews, and community participation. The results indicate that the iftar and basic-food-package programs helped reduce short-term household expenditure, encouraged gratitude and positive responses among beneficiaries, and strengthened cooperation among students, village officials, donors, and residents. Nevertheless, the program remains consumptive and short-term; therefore, future activities should be developed into productive assistance, skills training, or micro-enterprise mentoring so that social assistance can contribute more sustainably to community empowerment.

Abstract

This community service program aimed to implement Islamic values through religious development activities. The program was conducted in Desa Bontolanra, Kecamatan Galesong Utara, Kabupaten Takalar, using the Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach, which positioned the community as the primary subject throughout the stages of problem identification, planning, implementation, evaluation, and follow-up. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, then analyzed qualitatively using the Strengths, Opportunities, Aspirations, Results (SOAR) framework. The implementation process consisted of preparation, program planning, implementation, evaluation, and sustainability planning stages. The programs included Qur’anic learning activities (TK/TPA), school teaching, Tebar Imam and Da’i, Amal Jama’i, Pesantren Kilat (PESKIL), Ta’lim Remaja, and other socio-religious activities. The findings indicate that integrating PAR and SOAR successfully increased community participation in religious activities, strengthened mosque-based empowerment, improved children’s enthusiasm for Qur’anic learning, enhanced youth engagement in Islamic activities, and increased awareness of religious practices and moral development. The programs also contributed to strengthening social cohesion, mosque functions as community development centers, and collaboration between higher education institutions and local communities. Despite challenges such as limited implementation time and varying levels of participation, this study demonstrates that participatory-based religious empowerment has significant potential to create sustainable socio-religious transformation within rural communities.

Abstract

This community service program aimed to enhance the quality of education and religious development within the community through formal and non-formal educational activities focused on strengthening Islamic character, improving Qur’anic literacy, and introducing basic Arabic language skills. The program was implemented in Biring Kassi Village, North Galesong District, Takalar Regency, Indonesia, using a Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach that positioned the community as both a partner and the primary stakeholder throughout the planning, implementation, evaluation, and sustainability phases of the program. The implemented activities included General Learning Assistance at SDN 87 Tamanroya, an Islamic Short Course (Pesantren Kilat), Basic Arabic Language Instruction, and Qur’anic Learning Programs at TK/TPA (Qur’anic learning centers for children). The findings indicate that these programs successfully enhanced students’ learning motivation, strengthened their foundational understanding of Islamic teachings, improved their Qur’anic reading skills and memorization of daily supplications, and fostered greater interest in Arabic as the language of the Qur’an. Furthermore, the program contributed to strengthening collaboration among educational institutions, the local community, and higher education institutions in supporting youth development. The implementation of the PAR approach combined with SOAR analysis proved effective in designing community-based programs that addressed local needs and increased community participation in educational and religious activities. Despite challenges related to the limited duration of program implementation and the diverse characteristics of participants, the program demonstrates that integrating general education, Islamic education, and Arabic language learning through a participatory community-based approach has significant potential to support human resource development and strengthen the socio-religious life of rural communities in a sustainable manner.

Abstract

Promiscuity among teenagers is one of the issues that can have a negative impact on reproductive health, moral development, and the future of the younger generation. Preventive measures need to be implemented through education that integrates health aspects and Islamic values so that teenagers have a better understanding and awareness of how to avoid risky behaviour. This community service activity aims to provide education and raise awareness among adolescents to prevent promiscuity through preventive health education based on Islamic Sharia law via the CERDAS (Prevent Risks, Self-Education, Anti-Promiscuity) Youth Programme. The activity was carried out at UPT SMKN 4 Takalar by students participating in the Practical Work Study (KKN) programme from the Islamic Institute (IAI) STIBA Makassar. The material was delivered through lectures, question-and-answer sessions, and interactive discussions covering adolescent reproductive health, the dangers of promiscuity, risky sexual behaviour, and the reinforcement of Islamic Sharia values in preserving personal dignity and the honour of one’s lineage. The results of the activity demonstrated high levels of enthusiasm and participation among attendees throughout the educational process. The programme successfully educated participants on the risks of promiscuity and fostered moral and religious awareness to adopt healthy social behaviour in accordance with Islamic teachings. The ‘CERDAS’ Youth Programme has the potential to serve as an effective model for preventive health education based on Islamic Sharia in building a healthy, principled, and virtuous younger generation.

Abstract

 This community service program aimed to strengthen the mental and spiritual development of the people of Bontokassi Village through a Tarbiah-based approach emphasizing the cultivation of Islamic values, the habituation of religious practices, and community participation. The program consisted of five main activities: Dawn Religious Lectures (Kultum Subuh), Qur’anic Learning Centers for Children (TK/TPA), Weekly Qur’an Memorization Sessions (Tahfidz), Arabic Language Instruction and Ramadan Islamic Camp, and Ramadan Fest. The study employed a Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach, actively involving community members as partners throughout all stages of the program. Data were collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews, and document analysis conducted from March 15 to March 29, 2026. Data validity was ensured through source and technique triangulation, while qualitative data were analyzed using an interactive model consisting of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing and verification. The findings indicate that the Tarbiah approach contributed to increasing religious awareness, strengthening discipline in worship, encouraging parental involvement in children’s religious education, and enhancing community engagement with the Qur’an. The program also broadened participants’ Islamic knowledge through Arabic language learning and intensive religious instruction. Furthermore, Ramadan Fest fostered social cohesion by promoting intergenerational collaboration in various educational and religious activities. The program’s success was supported by the active involvement of village authorities, community leaders, mosque administrators, TK/TPA instructors, youth organizations, and local residents. These findings suggest that a community-based Tarbiah approach can serve as an effective, adaptive, and sustainable model for strengthening the spiritual development and religious character of rural communities.
