Abstract

Mainstream narratives often label the Medieval period as a time of global intellectual stagnation, whereas Islamic civilization actually recorded a golden age through the integration of theology, philosophy, and science, reaching its pinnacle. This study seeks to reconstruct the concept of knowledge (‘ilm) in the medieval Islamic tradition and to map the interrelation between the authority of revelation and rationality. The author applies a library research method with content analysis techniques on the thoughts of key figures such as Al-Farabi, Ibn Rushd (Averroes), and Ibn al-Haytham. The analysis identifies three fundamental points: first, medieval Islamic epistemology was holistic, eliminating the dichotomy between sacred and profane spheres; second, the Qur’an serves as an epistemological constitution that legitimizes empirical observation through the doctrine of the "Two Books" (Tadwini and Takwini); and third, philosophy and science are positioned as collective obligations (fardhu kifayah) consistent with the message of revelation. This study concludes that addressing the crisis of modern knowledge dichotomy requires a renewed adoption of the classical spirit of epistemological integration.

Abstract

The Fatimid Dynasty (909–1171 AD) in Egypt marked one of the most important phases in the history of Islamic education. As a dynasty that embraced Ismaili Shi'ism, the Fatimids not only strengthened their political power, but also actively developed an education system as a means of spreading ideology and knowledge. One of their most monumental contributions was the establishment of Al-Azhar University in 970 AD, which initially functioned as a center for spreading Ismaili teachings, but later developed into an inclusive center of Islamic scholarship. The Fatimid government provided significant support for the development of educational institutions through funding, establishing libraries, and appointing prominent scholars as teachers. This article aims to historically examine the development and role of Islamic educational institutions during the Fatimid Dynasty and their contribution to the Islamic scholarly tradition. The method used is a literature study with a historical-critical approach to primary and secondary sources. The results of the study show that the Fatimid Dynasty succeeded in creating an organized education system that became a model for the development of Islamic educational institutions in subsequent periods.

Abstract

The role of faith in organizational development has gained increasing attention, particularly in Islamic contexts where religious principles shape organizational practices and communication strategies. Islamic values such as justice, Shura (consultation), and community welfare have profound implications for organizational behavior, leadership, and social responsibility. This study aims to explore how these faith-based principles influence organizational communication and contribute to social change. The research focuses on Islamic organizations, examining the integration of faith in decision-making, communication practices, and community engagement. A qualitative case study approach was employed, incorporating interviews with organizational leaders and employees, document analysis, and observations across five Islamic organizations. The findings suggest that the incorporation of Islamic values leads to more inclusive decision-making processes, stronger communication channels, and a heightened sense of social responsibility. Organizations that prioritized faith-based values demonstrated greater transparency, employee engagement, and community involvement. The study concludes that faith plays a central role in fostering social change within organizations, enhancing both internal development and broader societal impact. Integrating Islamic values into organizational practices not only promotes ethical decision-making but also drives positive social transformation. These findings contribute to the understanding of faith-based organizational development and offer practical insights for integrating religious values in modern organizational contexts.

Abstract

Islamic art is an effective medium of proselytization in conveying the spiritual and moral values of Islam to society. Islamic arts, such as calligraphy, mosque architecture, music, and poetry, not only have aesthetic value but also contain deep religious messages. However, in the era of globalization, Islamic art faces challenges such as the influence of global culture and technology, so it needs to be further explored to ensure its relevance. The purpose of this study is to analyze religious expression in Islamic art and its potential as a medium for da’wah, as well as identify challenges and opportunities in the contemporary era. The method used is a literature study with a qualitative approach, collecting and analyzing academic sources such as journals, books, and reliable articles. The results showed that Islamic art plays an important role in building spiritual identity, facilitating character education, and bridging intercultural dialogue. Key findings include the effectiveness of Islamic art in da’wah, its adaptation to digital technology, and its synergy with local values. In conclusion, Islamic art is a powerful and multifunctional medium for da’wah, which needs to be preserved and developed to remain relevant amidst the dynamics of the times. Recommendations include training for artists and preachers, as well as collaboration between stakeholders to support innovation in Islamic arts.

Abstract

The rapid digitalization of religious engagement has precipitated an intense rivalry between established Islamic television stations and emerging YouTube channels. This study investigates the competitive management strategies employed by these entities to optimize audience retention within a saturated media landscape. Adopting a qualitative comparative case study design, the research analyzes operational workflows and engagement metrics from national TV networks and high-performing digital channels. Data were gathered through in-depth interviews with station managers and content creators, supplemented by secondary analysis of digital analytics. The results identify a stark strategic divergence: television stations remain constrained by rigid, supply-side bureaucratic models that yield declining viewership, whereas YouTube channels utilize agile, demand-side strategies to achieve superior retention. Specifically, digital entities leverage real-time algorithmic feedback to maximize engagement, a competency largely absent in traditional broadcasting. The study concludes that the sustainability of contemporary Da’wah broadcasting depends on shifting from capital-intensive infrastructure to data-driven managerial agility. These findings offer a novel framework for “Algorithmic Da’wah Management,” suggesting that institutional authority is no longer sufficient without the integration of adaptive digital strategies to capture the modern viewer’s attention.

Abstract

Da’wah has traditionally relied on face-to-face interaction and community-based structures to disseminate Islamic teachings. The rapid expansion of social media has transformed patterns of religious communication, creating new opportunities and challenges for Islamic outreach. This digital shift requires da’wah actors to move beyond conventional approaches and adopt innovative management strategies that align religious objectives with the dynamics of online platforms. This study aims to analyze innovative strategies in da’wah management and to examine how social media is harnessed effectively for Islamic outreach. The research employed a qualitative-dominant mixed-methods design, involving questionnaires distributed to da’wah practitioners, in-depth interviews with managers of Islamic organizations, and a focused case study of social media–based da’wah initiatives. The findings reveal that structured planning, message consistency, and active audience engagement significantly enhance the effectiveness of digital da’wah. However, the use of analytics and systematic evaluation remains limited, indicating gaps in data-driven management practices. The study concludes that social media–based da’wah can achieve sustainable impact when managed strategically, ethically, and responsively to platform characteristics. Integrating management principles with Islamic values is essential to strengthening the credibility and long-term effectiveness of digital Islamic outreach in the contemporary media landscape.

Abstract

The effectiveness of persuasive preaching in contemporary contexts demands a profound understanding of communication psychology mechanisms underlying the reception and transformation of religious messages. This study employs a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method with PRISMA protocol to analyze ten journal articles from 2021-2025 addressing the integration of communication psychology in persuasive preaching. Results indicate that preaching effectiveness is determined by three psychological mechanisms: communicator credibility based on empathy (ethos), emotional connection through social proximity (pathos), and logical argumentation reducing cognitive dissonance (logos). Determinant factors include communicator empathy, understanding of audience’s hierarchy of needs, message contextualization, media adaptability, and therapeutic communication. Optimization of persuasive strategies requires responsiveness to cognitive modalities, emotional dynamics, and socio-cultural contexts of audiences. This study confirms that integrating communication psychology transforms preaching into a humanistic process achieving sustainable behavioral change and spiritual tranquility (sakinah) among contemporary audiences.

Abstract

Representation of Muslim communities within contemporary media environments continues to generate ethical concerns related to stereotyping, ideological framing, and imbalanced journalism practices. Mainstream media frequently associate Islam with conflict, extremism, and political instability, while limited attention is given to the diversity, social contributions, and cultural complexity of Muslim societies. Islamic journalism has therefore emerged as an important ethical communication framework emphasizing fairness, contextual accuracy, social responsibility, and respectful representation. This study aimed to examine the ethical considerations and practical challenges encountered in the representation of Muslim communities within contemporary journalism environments. Qualitative descriptive methodology combined with critical discourse analysis was employed through media content analysis, in-depth interviews, and document review involving mainstream journalists, Islamic media practitioners, and communication scholars. The findings revealed that institutional pressure, digital competition, political narratives, and algorithm-driven communication systems significantly influenced representational imbalance concerning Muslim communities. Islamic-oriented journalism platforms demonstrated stronger commitment to ethical reporting principles, including balanced representation, contextual explanation, and community-centered narratives. Ethical journalism practices were also found to contribute positively to intercultural understanding and reduction of harmful stereotypes. This study concludes that Islamic journalism represents an important ethical alternative capable of strengthening inclusive communication, promoting socially responsible reporting, and encouraging more balanced representation of Muslim communities within increasingly polarized global media environments.
