Abstract

Reading literacy plays a crucial role in elementary education, yet literacy instruction often faces challenges related to learner diversity and limited opportunities for meaningful value-oriented learning. In Islamic elementary schools, literacy education is expected not only to develop reading comprehension but also to facilitate the internalization of values that support students’ character formation. This study aimed to develop and evaluate the BAHRAIN Method, a differentiated reading instruction model designed for folklore learning in an Islamic elementary school context. The study employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the ADDIE model, consisting of Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation stages. The research was conducted at SDIT Al-Bashirah Palopo and involved 15 fifth-grade students. Data were collected through interviews, questionnaires, validation sheets, and achievement tests, and were analyzed using descriptive qualitative and quantitative techniques. The development process resulted in the BAHRAIN Method, which consists of seven instructional stages: Baca (Read), Analisis (Analyze), Hubungkan (Connect), Refleksi (Reflect), Aktualisasi (Actualize), Interaksi (Interact), and Nilai (Value). The validation results indicated that the developed method was valid, with an overall score of 78.73%. Practicality testing demonstrated highly positive responses from teachers (100%) and students (83.5%). The effectiveness test yielded an overall score of 80.53%, categorized as effective. These findings indicate that the BAHRAIN Method is a feasible instructional model for folklore learning and has the potential to support reading comprehension, reflective learning, and the integration of Islamic literacy values within elementary literacy education. The study contributes to the development of differentiated literacy instruction by integrating cognitive, social, and value-oriented dimensions within a single instructional framework.

Abstract

Constitutional Court Decision Number 87/PUU-XXIII/2025 concerning the minimum educational requirements for presidential and vice-presidential candidates has generated constitutional debate regarding the balance between democratic inclusiveness and leadership competency in Indonesia’s constitutional system. The decision rejected the petition seeking reinterpretation of Article 169 letter r of Law Number 7 of 2017 concerning General Elections, which requires candidates to possess at least a senior high school diploma or its equivalent. This study aims to analyze the juridical foundation of the Constitutional Court’s reasoning within the doctrine of open legal policy, examine its implications for constitutional loss and judicial review access, and evaluate the relevance of the minimum educational requirement from the perspective of siyasah dusturiyah. This research employs normative juridical methods with statute and conceptual approaches using constitutional regulations, court decisions, and Islamic political thought as primary analytical sources. The findings reveal that the Constitutional Court reaffirmed the doctrine of open legal policy and judicial restraint by emphasizing that the determination of educational qualifications for presidential candidates belongs to legislative authority as long as constitutional principles are preserved. The decision also strengthens the Court’s restrictive interpretation of constitutional loss by limiting judicial review access to applicants who can demonstrate direct constitutional injury. From the perspective of siyasah dusturiyah, however, the minimum educational requirement of senior high school graduation is considered substantively inadequate because it does not fully reflect the principle of kifayah ‘ilmiyyah emphasized by Al-Mawardi and may potentially undermine maslahah ‘ammah in contemporary governance. This study argues that leadership competency should be positioned as an important component of constitutional morality and public welfare within Indonesia’s constitutional democracy.

Abstract

The capitalization of the agricultural sector has transformed seed governance from community-based agricultural practices into industrial systems dominated by corporate interests and intellectual property regimes. In Indonesia, the implementation of Plant Variety Protection (PVP) under Law Number 29 of 2000 has generated significant challenges regarding farmers’ rights, local seed sustainability, and agrarian justice. This study aims to analyze the impact of agricultural capitalization on farmers’ rights and local seed systems, as well as to evaluate the implementation of the PVP regime from an Islamic socio-legal perspective. This research employs a normative-empirical legal method using an Islamic socio-legal approach. Primary legal materials consist of national and international regulations concerning plant variety protection, while secondary materials include scholarly literature, policy reports, and previous studies related to agricultural capitalization and seed governance. The findings indicate that the implementation of the PVP system remains dominated by corporations and formal research institutions, while smallholder farmers face structural barriers in accessing legal protection. Technical requirements, administrative complexity, and unequal institutional access contribute to the marginalization of traditional seed systems and increase farmers’ dependency on commercial seed markets. From an Islamic socio-legal perspective, the concentration of control over seeds raises concerns regarding distributive justice, public welfare (maṣlaḥah), and monopolistic practices (iḥtikār). This study argues that Indonesia’s PVP system requires substantial reform through a more inclusive legal framework that recognizes farmers’ rights, protects local seed systems, and balances innovation incentives with social justice and collective welfare.

Abstract

This study examines the phenomenon of wali adhal in Islamic marriage through a socio-legal analysis of a case in Pilangsari Village, Indramayu, Indonesia. While previous studies have primarily focused on the legal aspects of guardianship refusal and judicial mechanisms for transferring guardianship authority, limited attention has been given to economic exploitation as a motive underlying marriage obstruction. This research aims to analyze how economic interests shape guardianship practices and influence women’s access to marriage and legal protection. Employing a qualitative empirical legal research design with a socio-legal approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis involving the prospective bride, prospective groom, lineage guardian, family members, community leaders, and officials from the local Office of Religious Affairs (KUA). The findings reveal that the guardian’s refusal to approve the marriage constituted wali adhal because it was not based on legitimate Islamic legal considerations but rather on economic motives, including financial demands and efforts to maintain long-standing economic benefits derived from the daughter’s income as an Indonesian migrant worker. The study further demonstrates that economic exploitation was reinforced by patriarchal authority and unequal family power relations, transforming guardianship from a protective institution into a mechanism of economic control. As a consequence, the prospective bride ultimately entered into an unregistered (sirri) marriage after mediation efforts failed. This study contributes to Islamic family law scholarship by introducing economic exploitation as an analytical framework for understanding contemporary manifestations of wali adhal and highlights the importance of strengthening legal literacy, improving access to justice, and enhancing institutional protection for women facing guardianship-related marriage obstruction.

Abstract

This study aims to describe strategies for strengthening positive discipline in improving teachers’ work culture at SD Negeri 004 Balikpapan City. A qualitative approach with a case study design was employed. The participants consisted of the vice principal and teachers selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation, and analyzed using an interactive model of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that positive discipline is implemented through leadership role modeling, continuous supervision, effective communication, habituation of a positive work culture, and teachers’ professional development programs. These strategies contribute to improving teachers’ motivation, professionalism, collaboration, and sense of responsibility in performing their duties. Although several challenges were identified, including resistance to change among some teachers and high administrative workloads, the school consistently implemented guidance and strengthened internal communication to support improvement. Overall, the study concludes that positive discipline is an effective managerial strategy for fostering a professional, collaborative, and conducive teacher work culture in elementary schools.

Abstract

This study examines the development of waqf-based takaful products in Indonesia through the integration of an inclusive Islamic financial ecosystem. The research was motivated by the significant disparity between the enormous potential of national waqf assets and the limited utilization of takaful as a mechanism for protecting waqf properties from various risks. Employing a mixed methods approach with an explanatory sequential design, the study collected quantitative and qualitative data from key stakeholders in the Islamic insurance and waqf sectors, including sharia insurance companies, regulators, and waqf institutions. Data were analyzed using the Analytic Network Process integrated with Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats (ANP-SWOT) analysis to identify strategic priorities and formulate an ecosystem-based development model. The findings reveal that regulatory support, the tabarru’ risk-sharing mechanism, and the increasing value of waqf assets constitute the most influential factors supporting the development of waqf-based takaful products. Conversely, the absence of dedicated waqf insurance products, limited institutional capacity, fragmented waqf data systems, and strong competition from conventional insurance providers remain significant challenges. Based on these findings, this study proposes the Inclusive Takaful Waqf Ecosystem (ITWE), an integrated framework that connects regulators, waqf institutions, takaful operators, religious authorities, donors, and beneficiaries within a collaborative financial ecosystem. The study contributes to the literature on Islamic financial ecosystems by demonstrating how Islamic social finance and Islamic commercial finance can be integrated to strengthen waqf asset protection, enhance Islamic financial inclusion, and support sustainable socio-economic development in Indonesia.

Abstract

Madrasahs are among the Islamic educational institutions that have experienced significant development in Southeast Asia over the past two decades. These changes have taken place alongside increasing state involvement in the governance of Islamic education, curriculum transformation, and the strengthening of transnational networks connecting Islamic educational institutions in the region with the broader Muslim world. In this context, madrasahs function as arenas of interaction between state policies, religious identity, and the dynamics of globalization in Islamic education. This study aims to analyze the dynamics of madrasah politics and the forms of transnationalism that influence the development of Islamic education in Southeast Asia. The research employs a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach guided by the PRISMA 2020 framework. Data were collected from the Scopus database and thematically analyzed across 19 articles that met the inclusion criteria. The findings indicate that madrasah politics in Southeast Asia primarily focus on institutional regulation, curriculum reform, the integration of Islamic education into national education systems, and the construction of Muslim identity. Meanwhile, the dimension of transnationalism is reflected in curriculum transfer, ulama mobility, the strengthening of Arabic language instruction, the internationalization of Islamic education, and the diffusion of educational models across countries. The study concludes that the development of madrasahs in Southeast Asia is shaped by the dynamic interaction between state policies, the needs of Muslim communities, and global Islamic educational networks. Madrasahs serve as key institutions in shaping the direction of Islamic education that is responsive to social, national, and global dynamics.

Abstract

Belief in magic (sihr) continues to persist within many Muslim communities despite the explicit prohibition of harmful magical practices in Islamic teachings. This study investigates how Muslims in Banyuwangi Village, North Luwu Regency, Indonesia, perceive magic and negotiate Qur’anic teachings with local cultural beliefs. Employing a qualitative field research design, data were collected through observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation involving religious leaders, community leaders, and local residents. The data were analyzed using an interactive model consisting of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that community understandings of magic are shaped by both Islamic teachings and inherited local traditions. Participants generally acknowledge the existence of magic as described in the Qur’an, particularly through narratives concerning Harut and Marut, the magicians of Pharaoh, and verses of spiritual protection. At the same time, local cultural beliefs continue to influence interpretations of supernatural phenomena and magical practices. The study identified six forms of magic commonly recognized within the community: separation magic, love magic, madness-inducing magic, marriage-blocking magic, santet, and pesugihan. These forms are associated with social relationships, economic aspirations, personal conflicts, and spiritual concerns. The findings further demonstrate that community members distinguish between harmful magical practices and spiritual practices perceived as legitimate forms of protection and healing. This study argues that perceptions of magic among Muslims in North Luwu reflect an ongoing negotiation between Qur’anic doctrine and local cultural traditions, illustrating the dynamic interaction between scriptural authority, lived religion, and cultural experience in contemporary Muslim society

Abstract

Serat Dewa Ruci is one of the most significant works of Javanese Islamic literature, containing symbolic narratives that reflect the integration of local wisdom and Sufi teachings within the tradition of cultural da‘wah associated with Sunan Kalijaga. While previous studies have primarily examined the text from philosophical, cultural, and mystical perspectives, limited attention has been given to its symbolic structure as a system of psycho-sufistic meanings. This study aims to analyze the symbolic elements embedded in Serat Dewa Ruci using Ferdinand de Saussure’s semiotic theory and to interpret their meanings through a psycho-sufistic framework. Employing a qualitative library research design, the study examines symbolic episodes, characters, and narrative elements found in the text, focusing on the relationships between signifiers and signified meanings. The findings reveal six major symbols that structure Bima’s spiritual journey: Mount Candramuka, the Tribaksara Forest, Rukmuka and Rukmakala, the Dragon, the Ocean and tirta pawitra sari, and Dewa Ruci. Semiotic analysis demonstrates that these symbols form an interconnected system of meanings representing successive stages of spiritual development. Through a psycho-sufistic interpretation, the symbols are found to signify the strengthening of faith, awareness of human vulnerability, responsibility for worldly blessings, emotional regulation, the search for ultimate truth, and the attainment of divine self-knowledge. The study contributes to Islamic studies by demonstrating how symbolic narratives function as vehicles for transmitting spiritual teachings within Javanese Islamic culture. Furthermore, it offers a novel integration of Saussurean semiotics and psycho-sufistic analysis, providing a new perspective on the relationship between literature, spirituality, and cultural da‘wah in the intellectual legacy associated with Sunan Kalijaga.

Abstract

Teaching Islamic ritual practices to young children requires instructional approaches that are developmentally appropriate, engaging, and meaningful. Among the fundamental religious practices introduced in early childhood Islamic education, wudu plays an essential role as a prerequisite for prayer and as an important component of children’s spiritual development. However, teaching wudu to young learners can be challenging when instructional methods rely primarily on verbal explanations and memorization. This study aims to explore the implementation of movement and song methods in teaching wudu to children and to examine their contribution to children’s engagement in Islamic learning. Employing a qualitative descriptive research design, the study was conducted at Umega Kindergarten, Palopo City, Indonesia. Data were collected through classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis and were analyzed using an interactive qualitative analysis model. The findings reveal that the movement and song method was implemented through a combination of musical activities, physical demonstrations, and guided practice that enabled children to learn wudu procedures in an interactive and enjoyable manner. The method significantly enhanced children’s engagement, as reflected in their enthusiasm, active participation, sustained attention, confidence, and ability to remember the sequence of wudu practices. The study also identified several supporting factors, including children’s interest in music and movement, teacher creativity, and a supportive learning environment, as well as challenges related to time constraints and differences in learning abilities. This study contributes to the field of early childhood Islamic education by demonstrating that movement and songs can function as an effective child-centered pedagogical approach for strengthening engagement and facilitating the learning of Islamic ritual practices among young children.
