Abstract

Religious diversity can strengthen social cohesion, but differences in religious communication may also generate tension when they are not managed contextually. This study analyzes conflict-management practices in multicultural da'wah programs, identifies factors contributing to potential da'wah-related conflict, and explains the strategic roles of da'i and religious leaders in promoting interreligious harmony in Berastagi District, Karo Regency. A qualitative case-study design was employed. Informants were selected purposively from MUI, the Ministry of Religious Affairs, religious and community leaders, and multicultural program personnel. Data were collected through participant observation, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis and were analyzed through data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing and verification. The findings show that conflict management operates through persuasive and moderate da'wah, interfaith dialogue, deliberation, institutional coordination, and early clarification of sensitive issues. Potential conflict is associated primarily with divergent interpretations of da'wah messages, religious symbols and activities in public spaces, communication barriers, and unverified religious information on social media. Da'i and religious leaders function as communicators, mediators, educators, and agents of religious moderation. The study concludes that effective preventive management integrates four mutually reinforcing elements: moderate da'wah, collaborative religious leadership, institutional coordination, and multicultural programs that strengthen social cohesion. This integrated model provides a context-sensitive framework for sustaining tolerance and peaceful coexistence in religiously diverse communities.

Abstract

Tafsir ishari represents one of the distinctive traditions within Qur'anic exegesis that seeks to uncover the inner spiritual meanings of Qur'anic verses beyond their apparent textual expressions. Although this interpretive approach has significantly contributed to the development of Islamic spirituality and Sufi thought, its methodological validity continues to generate scholarly debate due to concerns regarding subjectivity, epistemological legitimacy, and the absence of standardized interpretive procedures. This study aims to examine the conceptual foundations, methodological characteristics, and critical issues surrounding tafsir ishari from the perspective of contemporary Qur'anic exegesis studies. Employing a qualitative library research design with descriptive-analytical and critical approaches, the study analyzes classical and contemporary literature concerning Sufi exegesis, Qur'anic interpretation, and Islamic epistemology. The findings indicate that tafsir ishari functions primarily as an epistemological orientation that complements rather than replaces the outward (zahir) interpretation of the Qur'an. Its interpretive process is characterized by reliance on spiritual inspiration (ilham), symbolic interpretation, and ethical contemplation while maintaining consistency with the literal meaning of the text. Nevertheless, the study identifies three major methodological challenges, namely the absence of a standardized interpretive framework, the epistemological limitations of inspiration as a source of knowledge, and tensions between symbolic interpretation and established principles of Arabic linguistics. The study concludes that tafsir ishari should be understood as a valuable spiritual-hermeneutical tradition whose academic legitimacy depends upon maintaining methodological transparency, linguistic coherence, and epistemological accountability. This research contributes to contemporary Qur'anic exegesis by proposing a balanced analytical framework that integrates the spiritual richness of Sufi interpretation with the methodological rigor required in modern Qur'anic studies.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the pedagogical transformation of Islamic Religious Education (IRE) from the dominance of the lecture method toward interactive learning as an effort to improve student learning concentration at SMPIT Al-Ridwan. Previous studies have mostly discussed innovations in IRE learning methods, whereas research specifically linking the dominance of the lecture method to low student concentration and the pedagogical transformation toward interactive learning remains relatively limited. The study employed a descriptive qualitative approach conducted in 2026, involving one PAI teacher and 16 seventh-grade A students. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, then analyzed via data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results indicate that the dominance of the lecture method causes students to tend to be passive, easily bored, unfocused, and have low levels of participation. In response to these conditions, the teacher implemented interactive learning through group discussions, question-and-answer sessions, and audiovisual media, which encouraged more active student engagement. The findings reveal changes in learning behavior marked by increased attention, participation, and student engagement during the learning process. The novelty of this study lies in the analysis of the transformation of Islamic Education pedagogy from a teacher-centered approach to a student-centered approach as a strategy to address learning concentration issues. Theoretically, this study expands the discourse on Islamic Education pedagogy by demonstrating that students’ learning concentration is closely related to the pedagogical orientation applied by teachers in the learning process.

Abstract

This article aims to explore the legal obligation of daughters to provide financial support (nafaqah) to their parents, both before and after marriage. It also analyzes the responsible parties for parental support when children cannot fulfill this obligation. The study employs a qualitative approach, utilizing a literature review method alongside normative and comparative frameworks. Primary sources include authoritative works in Islamic jurisprudence and relevant scholarly publications. The findings reveal that the obligation to financially support parents is not exclusive to sons but also applies to daughters who possess financial means. If a daughter lacks income or is financially dependent on her husband after marriage, she is not obligated to provide support. However, if she has her earnings—even after marriage—she remains jointly responsible with her male siblings, proportionate to their respective inheritance shares. In cases where the parents have only one daughter who is financially incapable and no other relatives can assist, the responsibility is transferred to the Bayt al-Māl.

Abstract

Musabaqah Tilawatil Qur'an (MTQ) is commonly understood as a Qur'anic recitation competition, yet its educational contribution to participants' sustained interest and affective attachment to the Qur'an remains insufficiently examined. This study analyzes the implementation of MTQ training and its role in fostering participants' interest in and love for the Qur'an at Sanggar Al-Fatih, Tebing Tinggi. A qualitative case-study design was employed. Data were obtained through direct observation, in-depth interviews with administrators, trainers, and participants, and analysis of program documentation. The data were condensed, organized thematically, and interpreted through iterative conclusion drawing, while source and method triangulation were used to strengthen credibility. The findings show that training was conducted progressively through instruction in makharij al-huruf, tajwid, nagham, breathing and voice control, interpretive recitation, and performance readiness. Regular practice increased participants' enthusiasm, discipline, confidence, and willingness to study the Qur'an beyond competition preparation. Intensive interaction with Qur'anic verses also encouraged habitual recitation, participation in religious activities, moral self-regulation, and a stronger sense of closeness to the Qur'an. These outcomes were supported by competent trainers, parental encouragement, senior role models, and a conducive religious environment, but constrained by differences in initial ability, limited practice time, and funding. The study concludes that MTQ training can function as sustained non-formal Qur'anic education when technical coaching is integrated with motivation, habituation, and character formation.

Abstract

The practice of vasectomy as a permanent contraceptive method is frequently regarded as a pragmatic response to contemporary economic pressures. However, from an Islamic theological perspective, the decision raises significant concerns when it is motivated by fear of poverty and economic insecurity. This article aims to analyze vasectomy through a legal-theological framework, focusing on its jurisprudential status and its implications for the doctrine of aqidah and the belief in Allah’s guarantee of sustenance (rizq). This normative legal study employs philosophical, juridical, and sociological approaches, utilizing content analysis of relevant Qur’anic verses and classical Shafi‘i jurisprudential literature. The study finds that under Shafi‘i jurisprudence, vasectomy as a permanent sterilization method (qat‘u al-nasl) is strictly prohibited (haram). Furthermore, when it is performed primarily on economic grounds (al-sabab al-iqtisadi), it reflects a weakened understanding of tawakkul (reliance upon Allah) and a corrupted belief (al-i'tiqad al-fasid) in Allah’s name as al-Razzaq (the Provider). The Qur’an emphasizes that the provision of sustenance for all creatures is guaranteed by Allah, as stated in QS. Hud [11]: 6 and QS. Adh-Dhariyat [51]: 22–23. Consequently, the permanent termination of fertility due to economic anxiety is not merely a medical or demographic issue but also raises profound theological questions concerning faith, reliance upon divine providence, and the objectives of Islamic family law. The findings of this article highlight the importance of greater harmonization between national reproductive health policies and Islamic theological principles as an effort to preserve both the welfare and spiritual integrity of society amid the growing influence of sociological materialism.

Abstract

The widespread use of Bloom’s Taxonomy in Islamic Religious Education (IRE) evaluation provides a systematic framework for measuring cognitive, affective, and psychomotor learning outcomes. However, its application remains predominantly oriented toward measurable competencies and does not fully represent the spiritual and moral dimensions that constitute the broader aims of Islamic education. This study aims to critically examine the limitations of Bloom’s Taxonomy in IRE evaluation and reconstruct its paradigm based on tawhid as the fundamental orientation of educational evaluation. In this reconstruction, tawhid is understood not merely as a dimension of faith, but as an epistemological and axiological foundation that integrates knowledge, values, practice, and character within a unified conception of human development. This study employs a qualitative approach using library research. Data were obtained from relevant scholarly literature on Bloom’s Taxonomy, educational assessment, Islamic Religious Education, Islamic educational objectives, and value-based education, supplemented by the Qur’an and Hadith as normative sources. Data were analyzed through content analysis involving reduction, categorization, comparison, interpretation, and conceptual synthesis. The findings indicate that the main limitation of Bloom’s Taxonomy does not lie in its cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains, but in the tendency to position competency attainment as the endpoint of evaluation. From a tawhid perspective, educational evaluation should integrate intellectual, spiritual, moral, and practical dimensions within a unified framework. The proposed reconstruction repositions iman (faith) as the orienting foundation, ‘ilm (knowledge) as the epistemic basis, internalization of values as the affective process, ‘amal (practice) as the actualization of learning, and akhlak (character) as the integrative manifestation of educational transformation. Tawhid thus functions as the unifying principle connecting knowledge, belief, internalization, practice, and character formation. This reconstruction shifts IRE evaluation from competency measurement toward holistic personality transformation while retaining the pedagogical strengths of Bloom’s Taxonomy.

Abstract

The growing circulation of mental-health content on social media has expanded access to psychological vocabulary while also increasing the possibility that individuals interpret ordinary distress as a clinical disorder without professional assessment. This article examines the conceptual relevance of qana’ah to mental-health self-diagnosis and specifies the safeguards required for a responsible Islamic response. The study uses a qualitative conceptual design that combines thematic Qur’anic exegesis with an integrative literature review. Six passages—Q. 9:59, 16:97, 20:131, 57:23, 65:3, and 49:6—were analyzed through al-Tabari, Ibn Kathir, Hamka, and M. Quraish Shihab, while peer-reviewed studies on qana’ah, mental-health literacy, misinformation, self-diagnosis, and help-seeking were coded comparatively. The analysis identifies qana’ah as an active disposition comprising gratitude, sufficiency, proportionate desire, continued effort, and reliance on God. Conceptually, these qualities may support emotional regulation and create an interpretive pause before distress is converted into a diagnostic identity. Qana’ah alone, however, does not establish diagnostic accuracy. Its protective relevance becomes more coherent when joined to tabayyun as information verification, mental-health literacy as symptom-context differentiation, and professional consultation as a clinical safeguard. The article therefore proposes qana’ah as a complementary spiritual framework rather than a substitute for psychological or psychiatric care. Because the model is conceptual, its proposed pathways require empirical testing across diverse Muslim populations and digital environments.
