Abstract

This article examines Ojemba Enwe Iro as an indigenous Igbo philosophical concept that articulates an ethic of non-hostility, adaptability, and peaceful coexistence in contexts of mobility and cultural plurality. The study aims to demonstrate how this moral principle functions as a culturally grounded framework for everyday peacebuilding, particularly among Igbo migrants and diasporic communities. Methodologically, the article employs a narrative review combined with hermeneutical analysis to synthesize scholarly literature on Igbo philosophy, African indigenous ethics, migration, and peacebuilding, allowing for an interpretive engagement with culturally embedded concepts. The findings reveal that Ojemba Enwe Iro operates at multiple levels as a moral guideline, a pragmatic survival strategy, and a communal expectation that governs interpersonal conduct beyond kinship and ethnic boundaries. Rooted in Igbo conceptions of personhood and communal ethics, the philosophy emphasizes restraint, relational responsibility, and adaptability as essential conditions for social harmony. The discussion further shows that this ethic is institutionalized through diaspora associations and informal governance structures, enabling conflict prevention and social integration within host communities. In dialogue with broader African philosophies such as Ubuntu, the study highlights both conceptual affinities and distinctive contributions, particularly its explicit engagement with migration and everyday peace. Overall, the article contributes to peace and conflict studies by foregrounding indigenous philosophy as a legitimate theoretical and practical resource, offering culturally responsive insights for peacebuilding, migration governance, and community relations in increasingly diverse societies.

Abstract

This study examines the indigenous Igbo philosophy of Onwudinuba—the idea that death is a component of wealth—in order to reconceptualize wealth beyond narrow material definitions. It aims to demonstrate how, within Igbo cosmology, wealth (uba) is a holistic life project integrating material property, human reproduction, and a morally sanctioned “good death” that culminates in ancestral incorporation. The study adopts a qualitative, naturalistic research design grounded in interpretive and hermeneutic approaches, drawing on ethnographic fieldwork, participant observation, and in-depth interviews conducted across selected Igbo communities in southeastern Nigeria. Data were analyzed thematically to uncover indigenous categories of meaning embedded in language, ritual practice, and social norms. The findings reveal that Igbo wealth is evaluated retrospectively and communally, with death—specifically natural death accompanied by elaborate burial rites—serving as the final marker of a fulfilled life. Wealth-seeking is shown to be embedded in a moral economy that valorizes hard work, condemns laziness, institutionalizes entrepreneurship through the Igba boi apprenticeship system, and prioritizes procreation for lineage continuity and ritual remembrance. Funerary practices emerge as key arenas where material assets, social relations, and moral legitimacy are publicly transformed into symbolic capital. By integrating death into the analytic category of wealth, the study contributes a novel indigenous perspective to African philosophy, religious studies, and anthropological debates on prosperity and human flourishing. It underscores the importance of culturally grounded frameworks for understanding economic behavior, social policy, and end-of-life practices in African contexts.

Abstract

Moral excellence (akhlak) holds paramount significance in Islam, serving as the criterion for a Muslim’s standing before Allah. The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) emphasized the importance of benevolence and deeds over outward appearances, highlighting the inseparable connection between ethical conduct and spiritual integrity. Despite this high regard for moral virtues, embodying them remains a significant challenge for Muslim youth, particularly among university students. The era of globalization, coupled with the pervasive influence of social media and mass media, often exerts a detrimental impact on adolescents, contributing to a pressing concern over behavioral misconduct issues within higher education institutions. This study examines the concept of moral education for university students by analyzing Al-Buzaidi’s book, Al-Adab Al-Mardhiyyah. This research aims to provide an in-depth understanding of the principles of moral excellence as a guide for contemporary challenges faced by young Muslims in a university setting.

Abstract

This study maps the intellectual landscape of research on poverty in Islam using a structured bibliometric approach with Biblioshiny (Bibliometrix) in RStudio. A Scopus search (TITLE-ABS-KEY “poverty” AND “Islam”) conducted on 1 September 2023 identified 279 English-language journal articles published between 1976 and 2023. The corpus spans 227 sources, 646 authors, and 10,262 cited references, with an annual growth rate of about 5%. Performance and science-mapping analyses reveal two “motor themes”—Islamic finance and healthcare/public health—while spiritually anchored constructs (e.g., maqasid, zakat governance, waqf, spiritual poverty) remain peripheral in co-occurrence and thematic maps. Citation patterns indicate higher field-normalized impact when studies are placed in multidisciplinary outlets, suggesting scope to bridge Islamic social-finance debates with mainstream development and health discourses. Methodological limitations include reliance on a single database (Scopus) and a narrow query that may under-capture related terms (e.g., “zakat”, “waqf”), which should be expanded in future replications. Overall, the review identifies key authors, venues, and conceptual clusters; highlights blind spots in spiritually grounded frameworks; and offers a roadmap for aligning Islamic social-finance instruments with maqasid-oriented outcomes in poverty alleviation.
Knowledge and Teaching Practices of Islamic Education Teachers in Learning Female Blood Fiqh of Secondary School Islamic Education Curriculum: Analysis Based on Contextual Learning Approach Yaakob, Siti Falihah Binti; Tengku Kasim, Tengku Sarina Aini Binti; Mohd Razif, Nor Fahimah Binti; Al Maawali, Iman Mohammed Zaid

Abstract

Teachers need to possess certain information in order to teach a class properly, particularly when teaching Worship and Fiqh, which includes memorization of practices, legal issues, fardu ain, and fardu kifayah, as well as student appreciation. Since teaching worship involves legal concerns and issues, it is crucial for teachers to be well-versed in the subject matter because this will affect both the pedagogical strategies they use to deliver the lesson's content and their ability to meet the established learning objectives. But according to the researcher's analysis, there are a number of holes in the Malaysian Secondary School Standard Curriculum (KSSM), namely in the area of worship that deals with women's blood instruction. Lack of exposure to and in-depth discussion of this subject impairs instructors' fundamental comprehension of women's blood, making it difficult for them to tackle the blood problems that students face in the classroom. Subsequently, the purpose of this article is to examine the methods and understanding of Islamic Education instructors about the fiqh of women's blood as taught in the Malaysian Secondary School Standard Curriculum (KSSM). The data for this qualitative study was gathered through semi-structured individual interviews with four Islamic Education Teachers (GPIs) who are now employed by the Malaysian Ministry of Education (KPM) in National Secondary Schools. The teachers were chosen by purposive sampling. Interview data has been analysed based on the idea of a contextual learning method to investigate how much teachers' practices and knowledge promote students' contextual learning characteristics. The study's findings indicate that Islamic Education teachers are still not fully utilising the contextual learning approach when it comes to women's blood because of their limited understanding of the subject and the Malaysian Secondary School Standard Curriculum (KSSM) coverage of the subject matter. Since teachers are responsible for imparting knowledge to their students, it is important to highlight the importance of teachers' ongoing pursuit of knowledge. This will help teachers become more knowledgeable about the subjects they teach and will also enable them to respond to inquiries from students promptly.

Abstract

The transformation of Palestinian solidarity movements through digital platforms represents a critical development in contemporary youth activism, particularly within Muslim-majority contexts where religious identity intersects with political engagement. This editorial examines how Indonesian youth organizations have leveraged digital technologies to mobilize support for Palestine during the 2024-2025 period, building upon historical foundations established since the Soekarno era. The analysis synthesizes recent scholarship on digital activism, crowdfunding initiatives, social media campaigns, and youth mobilization strategies, drawing from empirical studies of hashtag movements, philanthropic organizations, and student networks across Indonesia. Indonesian youth have demonstrated remarkable sophistication in utilizing platforms for solidarity expression, developing diverse campaigns including humanitarian crowdfunding that capitalizes on cultural inclinations toward charitable giving, hashtag activism that functions as tools for mobilization and identity formation, and boycott movements legitimized through religious authority. Islamic university student organizations play multifaceted roles serving as vehicles for political consciousness formation and transnational coordination, while innovative collaborations such as K-pop fandom networks construct digital solidarity through Islamic-pop aesthetics. These movements face significant challenges including maintaining sustained engagement within attention economies, navigating platform governance and algorithmic gatekeeping, and translating online activism into structural change. However, opportunities exist through building institutional capacity, developing interfaith coalitions that transcend religious boundaries, and creating educational partnerships supporting Palestinian resilience. The sustainability of youth-led digital activism depends on integrating online advocacy with community-based initiatives, navigating ideological tensions within collaborative frameworks, and developing mechanisms that extend beyond crisis response toward long-term solidarity infrastructure supporting Palestinian institutions and communities.
