Abstract

The era of the global economy has shifted the function of the Arabic language from a theological tool to a strategic asset in economic diplomacy; however, higher education institutions remain trapped in a rigid, classical-grammatical approach, leading to stagnation in pedagogical innovation and a mismatch between graduates’ competencies and professional sector needs. This study aims to analyze the transformation of labor market needs and formulate a model for reconstructing the Arabic for Specific Purposes (ASP) curriculum that is responsive to contemporary global economic dynamics through a descriptive-analytical qualitative approach with an evaluative-evolutionary design. Data were collected through document analysis and in-depth interviews with key informants, which were then analyzed using the Target Situation Analysis (TSA) and Present Situation Analysis (PSA) frameworks. The research findings reveal that the existing curriculum is still significantly dominated by theoretical material compared to professional simulations; thus, this study proposes an “Integrative-Adaptive ASP Curriculum” model that synergizes specific linguistic competencies with digital economic literacy and the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to strengthen mastery of functional corporate discourse. As a concrete recommendation, higher education institutions are encouraged to reorient their curricula through strategic collaboration with industry practitioners and to transform the role of instructors into multidisciplinary mentors to ensure the relevance of graduates in the global market.

Abstract

Pembelajaran Pendidikan Agama Islam (PAI) di sekolah formal pada umumnya masih berorientasi pada buku teks sehingga kurang mampu memberikan pemahaman yang mendalam terhadap sumber ajaran Islam. Kondisi ini berdampak pada rendahnya kemampuan siswa dalam memahami dalil, praktek ibadah, serta internalisasi nilai-nilai ahlak dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Penelitan ini bertujuan untuk menganalisi pembelajaran PAI berbasis kitab kalsik yang meliputi Fiqih (Fathul Qorib) dan Akidah Ahlak di SMP Islam Nahdatussubban Pacitan. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan jenis studi kasus. Teknik pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui observasi, wawancara dan dokumentasi. Analisis data menggunakan model Miles dan Huberman yang meliputi reduksi data, penyajian data, dan penarikan kesimpulan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pembelajaran berbasis kitab klasik mampu memperkuat pemahaman fiqih siswa, membentuk karakter ahlak yang lebih baik, serta menanamkan nilai-nilai Aswaja sebagai dasar moderasi beragama. Dengan demikan, pembelajaran ini relevan dengan tujuan PAI karena mampu mengintegrasikan aspek kognitif, afektif, dan psikomotorik secara holistik.

Abstract

The development of digital technology has driven major changes in the global financial system, including in the Islamic economic sector through the emergence of financial technology (fintech). This phenomenon presents opportunities for increased efficiency and financial inclusion, but also raises the need for integration that aligns with Islamic principles. This study aims to analyze the characteristics of Islamic economic transformation in the digital era, identify forms of fintech integration within the Islamic economic system, explain the role of maqāṣid al-sharī'ah as an evaluative framework, and formulate a conceptual model of fintech integration based on Islamic values. The study uses a qualitative approach based on library research, with an integrative literature review. Data were obtained from scientific journals, academic books, policy documents, and other relevant publications, then analyzed using content analysis and thematic analysis. The results show that fintech integration in the Islamic economy is developing through peer-to-peer financing services, digital payments, and Islamic crowdfunding that adapt contracts such as mudhārabah, musyārakah, murābaḥah, and wakālah. Other findings indicate that the maqāṣid al-sharī'ah (Islamic principles) play a crucial role in assessing the security, fairness, transparency, and social welfare of digital innovation. This study concludes that the transformation of the Islamic economy will be more sustainable if fintech is developed through a synergy between technology, regulation, governance, and maqāṣid al-sharī'ah orientation, thus creating a modern, inclusive, and valuable digital financial ecosystem.

Abstract

Artikel ini bertujuan mengkonstruksi diskursus war tiket haji dalam pemberitaan media online di Indonesia dengan menggunakan perspektif Gunther Kress. Penelitian ini fokus pada representasi aktor, strategi framing serta produksi makna dan relasi kekuasaan dalam teks berita. Penelitian ini menggunakan kualitatif interpretatif melalui analisis wacana kritis. Sumberr data dari penelitian ini berupa teks berita dari Tempo.co edisi 11 April, Mediaindonesia.com edisi 14 Apri dan Republika.co.id edisi 16 April 2026. Teknik pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui dokumentasi sedangkan analisis dilakukan melalui tahap deskripsi, interpretasi, dan eksplanasi. Hasil temuan dalam penlitian ini ada tiga. Pertama, representasi aktor dalam teks media bersifat selektif dan hierarkis yang mana Tempo.co menonjolkan aktor legislatif sebagai penjaga legalitas, Mediaindonesia.com menghadirkan distribusi aktor yang lebih seimbang antara pemerintah dan asosiasi. Sedangkan Republika.co.id menempatkan otoritas keagamaan sebagai sumber legitimasi moral. Kedua, strategi framing dan pilihan bahasa menunjukkan pola berbeda, yakni intensifikasi konflik pada Tempo.co, framing moderat dan rasional pada Mediaindonesia.com serta framing normatif berbasis nilai pada Republika.co.id. Ketiga, produksi makna dalam diskursus mencerminkan kontestasi relasi kekuasaan antara otoritas legal, administratif dan simbolik yang saling bernegosiasi dalam ruang publik.

Abstract

The Constitutional Court Decision Number 90/PUU-XXI/2023 on the age requirement for presidential and vice-presidential candidates has generated significant public debate in Indonesia. The decision reinterprets the candidacy requirement by allowing individuals under the age of 40 to run for President or Vice President, provided that they have previously or currently held an elected regional executive position. This article employs a normative legal research method, using statutory and conceptual approaches to examine the implications of the decision. The study finds that the decision has produced both opportunities and challenges. On the one hand, it expands political participation for younger leaders with electoral experience. On the other hand, it raises concerns regarding constitutional interpretation, institutional authority, electoral fairness, and public trust in the Constitutional Court. Therefore, Constitutional Court Decision Number 90/PUU-XXI/2023 should not be viewed merely as a change in candidacy requirements, but also as a legal event with broader implications for constitutional democracy and Indonesia’s state administration system.

Abstract

The growing recognition of cognitive diversity in contemporary education has exposed the inadequacy of rigid instructional media within Islamic learning environments, where standardized delivery often fails to accommodate variations in learners’ comprehension patterns, reflective capacities, and digital literacy competencies. Responding to this challenge, this study conceptualizes an adaptive instructional architecture designed to personalize Islamic educational experiences through cognitively responsive learning pathways. Utilizing a conceptual design framework, the study synthesizes Cognitive Load Theory, adaptive learning principles, and classical Islamic pedagogical traditions to construct a theoretically grounded model capable of aligning instructional delivery with individual learner profiles. The analysis yields a three-layered architecture comprising a Diagnostic Layer for identifying cognitive characteristics, a Logic Layer for determining adaptive instructional decisions, and a Content Adaptation Layer for dynamically restructuring learning materials according to learner needs and epistemological contexts. The architecture facilitates more meaningful engagement with Islamic knowledge by reducing cognitive friction while strengthening reflective learning and ethical reasoning. Ultimately, this blueprint suggests a paradigm shift in Islamic educational technology by positioning AI-driven personalization as a form of digital Ijtihad capable of transforming student-media interaction into a more adaptive, reflective, and intellectually resonant educational process.

Abstract

The growing prevalence of academic burnout among students has emerged as a critical challenge within contemporary educational systems, including Islamic educational institutions that often prioritize cognitive achievement and religious discipline without sufficiently addressing psychological well-being. This study aims to examine the integration of Positive Psychology and Tawakkal as a holistic pedagogical framework for mitigating academic burnout in Islamic education. Employing a qualitative library research approach, the study systematically analyzed contemporary literature on Positive Psychology, student resilience, and academic burnout alongside classical and modern Islamic scholarship concerning Tawakkal and spiritual coping mechanisms. The findings reveal that the integration of psychological resilience strategies with the spiritual principle of Tawakkal produces an “active surrender” model capable of reducing toxic productivity, emotional exhaustion, and existential anxiety among students. Positive Psychology contributes adaptive coping, optimism, and emotional regulation, while Tawakkal provides metaphysical security and spiritual meaning that transform academic struggle into a process of purposeful ikhtiar. The study concludes that Islamic Education (PAI) possesses significant potential to evolve into a transformative well-being-oriented discipline integrating faith-based values with psychological science to support emotionally resilient and spiritually grounded learners in the twenty-first century.

Abstract

The increasing complexity of modern industrial environments has intensified the need for vocational education institutions to cultivate students’ critical thinking skills alongside technical competence. This study aimed to evaluate the implementation of Collaborative Learning through the Think-Pair-Share and Beyond strategy in enhancing students’ critical thinking abilities at SMK Nurul Abror Al Robbaniyin. The research employed a Classroom Action Research design conducted in two cycles consisting of planning, action, observation, and reflection stages. Data were collected through classroom observation, field notes, documentation, and critical thinking assessments focusing on analytical reasoning, evaluation, interpretation, and argumentative communication. The findings revealed a progressive improvement in students’ critical thinking performance and collaborative participation across the research cycles. Students initially demonstrated passive learning behavior and procedural dependence during the pre-cycle stage, but gradually developed stronger analytical engagement, reflective discussion skills, and confidence in communicating technical arguments throughout the intervention process. More substantial improvement emerged during the second cycle following the integration of contextual simulations, visual scaffolding, and guided collaborative reflection within the “Beyond” approach. The study concludes that the modified Think-Pair-Share strategy effectively strengthened critical thinking development and collaborative engagement in vocational classroom learning environments.
