Abstract

School-aged children are susceptible to negative influences and moral degradation due to a lack of religious understanding and moral values. Education must not only focus on academics but also instill Islamic values as a guide for life. This study aims to examine the implementation of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) values in the moral development of students at MA Darullughah Waddawah Pasuruan. This research used a qualitative approach with interviews, observation, and documentation methods. The results show that the PAI learning plan at MA Darullughah Waddawah integrates character values through the 2013 Curriculum, and values are instilled through five main methods: contextual modeling, value-based project learning, integrated spiritual habituation, experience-based reflective dialogue, and individual spiritual counseling. The success of these methods is evident in the students’ behavioral changes, as they act consistently according to Islamic values without external supervision. The findings also emphasize the importance of collaboration between the school, family, and community. This study contributes by providing a practical model for effective PAI value internalization in madrasahs with unique socio-cultural characteristics.

Abstract

Contemporary education systems often struggle to create positive learning environments that foster holistic development, a challenge that may be addressed by examining classical pedagogical theories. This study investigates the potential integration of classical Islamic educational thought into modern teaching practices, specifically drawing from Imam Al-Ghazali's ‘Ihya Uloom al-Deen’ and Badr al-Din Ibn Jama’ah’s ‘Tadhkirat al-Sami’ wal-Mutakallim’, into modern teaching. Through qualitative content analysis, the research examines the educational principles presented in these texts to bridge the traditional and contemporary viewpoints. The study concentrates on teacher-student relationships, the art of teaching, and the teacher's classroom role. Key findings underscore the significance of compassion, ethical guidance, and spiritual growth in education. Effective teaching involves tailoring instruction to students' intellectual capacities, upholding personal dignity, and cultivating a positive learning atmosphere. The integration of these classical insights is posited to elevate modern education by fostering intellectual excellence and moral integrity.

Abstract

This study examines the concept of nature within Malay tradition through the lens of Islamic cosmology and local wisdom. The scope of the research focuses on how nature is understood, interpreted, and preserved in Malay culture, which is shaped by Islamic values and indigenous traditions. The objective of this study is to explore the integration between Islamic cosmological perspectives and local wisdom in shaping the Malay worldview toward nature. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, using literature review methods that draw upon sources related to Islamic cosmology, Malay traditions, as well as ethnographic and cultural documents. The findings reveal that nature in Malay tradition is not merely viewed as a physical entity, but as a sacred part of the spiritual and social order. Nature is regarded as God's creation, deserving of respect and care, as reflected in Islamic values such as tawhid, amanah, and rahmatan lil 'alamin, which are harmoniously integrated with local wisdom expressed through proverbs, natural symbolism, and ecological practices of the Malay community. In conclusion, there exists a synergy between Islamic cosmology and local wisdom that shapes the ecological awareness of the Malay people, offering a holistic and sustainable model of environmental ethics.

Abstract

This research seeks to examine the alignment of humanistic learning theory within the philosophical perspective of Imam Al-Ghazali, particularly as reflected in his work Ayyuhal Walad. It explores how the Sufi educational values conveyed by Al-Ghazali correspond with the core principles of humanistic learning—such as the cultivation of personal potential, spiritual consciousness, and the positioning of learners as active participants in their educational journey. Employing a qualitative approach, this study utilizes library research and content analysis methods to interpret the messages in Ayyuhal Walad, supplemented by theoretical insights from key humanistic scholars like Abraham Maslow and Carl Rogers. The findings indicate a significant congruence between Al-Ghazali’s educational outlook and the framework of humanistic learning, especially regarding the emphasis on individual experience, value internalization, and the nurturing of moral awareness. Al-Ghazali views education not merely as a vehicle for acquiring academic success, but as a transformative process that fosters ethical and spiritual development.Thus, this study underscores the potential of Al-Ghazali’s educational thought to serve as a foundational model for constructing a humanistic approach to Islamic education—one that deeply engages with the full spectrum of human experience and personal growth

Abstract

This article examines Abu Hanifah's thoughts on ownership and distribution of wealth as a solution to modern socio-economic inequality. The scope of the study includes a conceptual analysis of Abu Hanifah's views on property rights in Islam, the mechanism of wealth distribution, and its relevance in the context of contemporary economics. The purpose of this study is to explore the values ​​of distributive justice in classical Islamic thought and relate them to the challenges of global inequality today. The study uses a qualitative-descriptive method through a literature study of the works of Hanafi fiqh and contemporary Islamic economic literature. The results of the study show that Abu Hanifah places ownership as a social mandate that must be distributed fairly through zakat, sedekah, and waqf. His thoughts offer an alternative to the exploitative capitalist model and socialism that eliminates property rights. The conclusion of this study confirms that the concept of wealth distribution according to Abu Hanifah has philosophical and applicative value in building a just and sustainable economic system.

Abstract

This study analyzes the influence of Islamic-based fundamental analysis on the investment interest and profits of Islamic stock investors, particularly students who act as investors and are members of the Islamic Capital Market Study Group (KSPM-S) in East Java. The research is driven by the significance of Islamic financial literacy in supporting investment decisions that align with Islamic principles. A quantitative method with a path analysis approach is employed to identify the direct relationship between the understanding of Islamic fundamental analysis and the level of investment interest and resulting profits. The findings reveal that comprehension of core Islamic principles such as the prohibition of usury, the permissibility of business activities, and financial transparency has a positive impact on students’ interest in investing and contributes to increased investment returns. These results highlight the importance of integrating financial education with Islamic values in the investment decision-making process. The study also offers recommendations to enhance training programs on value-based Islamic stock analysis for the development of KSPM-S members.

Abstract

Students' ability to compete in the global arena is essential in the era of globalization. Mastery of English, especially through a content-based approach (CBI), is seen as crucial as a bridge to international excellence. This study aims to analyze the role of content-based English learning in shaping Indonesian students who excel and compete in the global arena. Using a qualitative case study design, data were collected through in-depth interviews with students and lecturers, classroom observations, and document analysis at a university in Malang, Indonesia. Data were analyzed thematically. The main results showed that CBI significantly improved students' academic and professional communication abilities, including mastery of specific terminology and presentation skills. The optimal CBI design for international participation involves the integration of global materials and simulation of real situations. Despite challenges such as the availability of teaching materials, student enthusiasm and institutional support were great opportunities. It is concluded that CBI not only improves language proficiency, but also develops students' global competence and readiness to interact in international forums. This research contributes by filling the literature gap on how CBI in the Indonesian context can be a strategic instrument to achieve global excellence, recommending the development of more integrated curriculum and teaching materials.

Abstract

Previous studies on Al-Ghazali have predominantly focused on his philosophical and theological thought within the context of classical Islam, without specifically examining how these ideas were received and applied by scholars in the Malay-Indonesian world. This study addresses that gap by exploring the creative reception of Al-Ghazali’s thought in the 19th-century Kāsifatussajā, a fiqh work by Syeikh Nawawi al-Bantani. The aim is to identify and analyze the manifestation of Al-Ghazali’s philosophical-theological ideas within Nawawi’s fiqh-ethical-transformative approach. Employing a qualitative descriptive method through library research and framed within Jaussian reception theory, this study finds that Nawawi integrated reason and revelation, emphasized the spiritual dimension of Islamic law, and adopted a moderate approach in issuing legal opinions. The findings reveal that Nawawi did not merely reproduce Al-Ghazali’s ideas but reconstructed them to address the challenges of colonialism, identity crisis, and the need for a spiritually grounded legal ethics in the Nusantara. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of the dynamic transmission of classical Islamic intellectual heritage and its relevance in local socio-cultural contexts.

Abstract

Laughter and humour in the life of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and his Companions have often been underexplored within the context of Islamic scholarship, yet they offer valuable insights into the human dimensions of Islamic teachings. This paper employs a qualitative, historical research methodology to examine the role of humour in the life of the Prophet Muhammad and his closest associates, as documented in early Islamic sources, particularly Hadith literature. Through a critical textual analysis of authentic narrations, the study employs thematic and hermeneutic approaches to explore how humour functioned as a tool for building community, fostering compassion, and diffusing tension. The paper also utilises a comparative analysis of various Hadiths to illustrate the Prophet's use of humour, revealing how his light-hearted interactions were framed not as frivolous but as expressions of wisdom, kindness, and accessibility. Additionally, a sociocultural analysis is applied to explore how the Prophet's Companions, including utilising humour in their daily lives, reflect the ethical and social dimensions of laughter in early Islamic society. The study further contextualises humour within the broader social and moral frameworks of early Islam, assessing how it reinforced community cohesion, challenged arrogance, and emphasised the transient nature of worldly life. Ultimately, this study underscores that laughter and humour in the life of the Prophet and his Companions were integral to cultivating humility, empathy, and a deeper understanding of the divine. By examining the intersection of humour with faith through a multidimensional approach, this paper contributes to a richer understanding of Islamic ethics and spirituality, demonstrating that laughter, in its proper context, can be a meaningful aspect of the believer’s relationship with God and society.

Abstract

This study is motivated by the need for an Islamic education model capable of responding to the challenges of a plural society and the increasingly urgent ecological crisis. Inclusive education is considered relevant as it emphasizes the values of rahmah (compassion), tolerance, justice, and responsibility toward the environment. The purpose of this research is to examine how Islamic education implemented at SIT Al Uswah Inclusive School Pamekasan serves as an instrument in fostering social harmony while also cultivating ecological awareness. This study employs a descriptive qualitative approach with data collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The findings reveal that SIT Al Uswah has successfully integrated Islamic values into inclusive educational practices, as reflected in the social interactions of students with special needs and the habituation of environmentally friendly living through programs such as waste banks, tree planting, waste management, and used cooking oil collection for recycling. Furthermore, the innovation of the Al Uswah Kids Unit provides tangible evidence of inclusivity for students with special needs. The study concludes that inclusive Islamic education at SIT Al Uswah is effective in fostering collective awareness of peaceful coexistence and environmental preservation as a form of social worship. The contribution of this research lies in developing an inclusive Islamic education model integrated with ecological values, which can serve as a reference for building a more humanistic and sustainable society.
