Abstract

This paper is motivated by the problem of education development in Indonesia in the contemporary era, which overemphasizes competitive aspects but ignores aspects of multiculturalism and feminist ethics. This is certainly not in line with the principles of diversity that are embraced and will have an impact on the formation of characters that are exclusive, radical, give birth to various other socio-cultural deviations, and are not gender-friendly. This study aims to investigate the idea of multicultural education based on feminist ethics from Marilyn Friedman's point of view and assess its applicability to Islamic education in Indonesia. Employing a descriptive-analytical approach, the research draws primarily on Marilyn Friedman’s philosophical works, complemented by secondary sources such as books, academic journal articles, and relevant online materials discussing her ideas. The findings indicate that feminist ethics provides strong support for contemporary educational orientations that increasingly emphasize multiculturalism. Friedman conceptualizes this approach through several key stages: first, the articulation of feminist ethical justifications as the normative foundation of multicultural education; second, the continued integration of feminist ethics within multicultural curricula, emphasizing that multicultural education should actively address gender-based oppression, subordination, and marginalization rather than merely promoting awareness of diversity; and third, the necessity of critically resisting forms of moral arrogance originating from patriarchal, cultural, or religious frameworks in order to enhance the quality and inclusivity of multicultural education.

Abstract

The digital transformation of Islamic education has become an increasingly important issue, particularly in light of the rapid technological acceleration experienced after 2020. However, limited attention has been given to understanding how Islamic educational institutions prepared for digital transformation prior to the pandemic. This study aims to systematically examine research trends, challenges, and institutional readiness related to digital transformation in Islamic education during the period 2015–2020. The main problem addressed in this paper is the fragmented and descriptive nature of existing studies, which lack comprehensive synthesis and policy-oriented analysis. This study employed a systematic literature review (SLR) approach, following the PRISMA framework. Data were collected from Google Scholar, Moraref, SINTA, and ERIC, resulting in 32 peer-reviewed journal articles that met the inclusion criteria. The selected studies were analyzed using thematic analysis to identify dominant patterns related to digital technologies, pedagogical practices, institutional readiness, and challenges. The findings reveal that digital transformation in Islamic education during this period was predominantly at an early and instrumental stage, focusing mainly on basic technologies such as e-learning platforms and learning management systems. Institutional preparedness was generally low, with digital initiatives largely driven by individual teachers rather than strategic policies or leadership frameworks. These results highlight the need for value-based management, leadership support, and human-centered digital strategies to ensure sustainable digital transformation in Islamic education.

Abstract

This article examines the execution of hadhanah (child custody) decisions in Indonesia’s Religious Courts, focusing on the interaction between Islamic legal principles, child welfare considerations, and multicultural social realities. Using a normative-qualitative approach, the study analyzes statutory regulations, judicial decisions, and relevant Islamic legal doctrines to identify challenges in implementing hadhanah rulings after divorce. The findings reveal that although Religious Courts consistently prioritize the principle of the best interests of the child, the execution of custody decisions often encounters obstacles, including parental resistance, socio-cultural norms, and limited enforcement mechanisms. Multicultural contexts—such as differing religious interpretations, family structures, and local customs—further complicate the effective realization of judicial decisions. The study argues that the gap between normative legal ideals and practical enforcement undermines child protection and legal certainty. It proposes strengthening judicial discretion, enhancing mediation mechanisms, and integrating child-centered and culturally sensitive approaches into hadhanah execution. This article contributes to the discourse on Islamic family law by highlighting the need for a more responsive and welfare-oriented framework in implementing custody decisions within Indonesia’s plural legal and social landscape

Abstract

This research examines the implementation of tawazun (equilibrium) principles in Islamic economics in Tagangser Laok Village, Waru District, Pamekasan Regency, Indonesia, to understand how rural communities balance material prosperity with spiritual values in their daily economic activities. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews with traders, farmers, religious leaders, and small business owners, along with participant observation and document analysis. Findings reveal that the community has internalized tawazun values as foundational to economic behavior, understanding equilibrium as balancing income-earning with religious obligations. A religious leader articulated: "Seeking sustenance must be halal, and one must not neglect worship; otherwise, life is considered unbalanced." This principle manifests concretely in economic practices: traders prioritize honesty despite reduced profits ("If one is honest, even though profit is small, sustenance is more blessed"), farmers practice mutual assistance during hardship ("If a neighbor is in difficulty, we help each other"), and systematic management of zakat and infaq redistributes wealth within the community. The implementation of tawazun generates dual outcomes: enhanced economic welfare through ethical trading and reciprocal support networks, and strengthened spiritual tranquility through alignment of economic activity with religious values. As one business owner reflected: "Income may not be large, but the heart is at peace; that is what we feel as prosperous." Economic relationships become more harmonious, and conflicts are minimized. This study demonstrates that Islamic economic principles can effectively serve as a foundation for equitable, sustainable rural development, offering insights for multicultural societies seeking value-based economic models that balance the material and spiritual dimensions of human welfare.

Abstract

Studies on the philosophy of Islamic law often remain descriptive-normative and repetitive, offering limited guidance for reform in lived legal settings. In Indonesia's multicultural and legally plural society - where state law, Islamic norms, and local adat interact - this gap becomes more consequential, because reform must sustain religious legitimacy while remaining socially workable across diverse communities. This article argues that Islamic legal philosophy can function as a systematic paradigm for Islamic legal reform when articulated through three dimensions: first, an ontological dimension that frames Islamic law as rooted in revelation and enlivened by reason; second, an epistemological dimension that explains lawful discovery through istinbat and istitdal, including the use of maqasid al-shariah and maslahah to engage new issues; and third, an axiological dimension that orients reform toward justice, balance, and prosperity as public goods. With this framework, reform can be pursued methodically: grounded in revelation, methodologically valid, and responsive to contemporary multicultural realities. The article thus positions Islamic legal philosophy not as abstract discourse, but as a practical foundation for consistent and context-sensitive renewal.
