Abstract

In the era of hyper-connectivity, the massive spread of disinformation and intolerance poses a significant threat to Indonesia’s national cohesion. This study explores how the national ideology, Pancasila, is operationalized into a practical framework for tolerance education by local actors in Lumbang, East Java—a region known for its distinct multicultural harmony. Employing a Grounded Theory approach with in-depth interviews, this research analyzes the synergistic strategies of two key agents: teachers and community leaders. The findings reveal that digital media in this region functions not to create, but to amplify existing social harmony. Teachers act as strategic communicators, applying Inoculation Theory by proactively "injecting" cognitive defenses against hoaxes and positioning Pancasila as a critical ethical filter in the classroom. Conversely, Community Leaders operate as gatekeepers who prioritize "heart-to-heart" interpersonal communication over digital interactions to mitigate conflicts, viewing social media as a supplementary tool rather than a primary solution. The study concludes that Pancasila is successfully revitalized not as a mere abstract concept, but as a "lived digital ethics" or shared frame of reference. This research offers a unique bottom-up model of digital resilience where formal pedagogical structure and informal communal wisdom intersect to sustain tolerance.

Abstract

This article examines Ibn Rushd’s rationality as an epistemological strategy in combating superstition (khurafat) within the Islamic intellectual tradition. The main issue addressed is the persistence of religious practices and beliefs that lack a solid rational and epistemic foundation, often sustained through blind taqlid, textual literalism, and methodological errors in understanding revelation. This phenomenon highlights the urgency of reintroducing a rational framework for a responsible interpretation of Islamic teachings. The study aims to analyze Ibn Rushd’s concept of rationality, particularly the status of reason, the burhan method, and his critique of irrational patterns of religiosity, as well as to assess its relevance in the contemporary Islamic context. This research employs a qualitative library-based method using an epistemological and historical-philosophical approach to Ibn Rushd’s major works and recent academic studies. The findings indicate that Ibn Rushd’s rationality does not stand in opposition to revelation; rather, it functions as an instrument for purifying religion from distortion and superstition. By positioning reason as a means of verifying religious understanding, Ibn Rushd offers a model of religiosity that is critical, moderate, and intellectually responsible. This article contributes to strengthening rational Islamic thought as a constructive alternative in responding to contemporary religious challenges.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the preservation of Islamic educational values within the batamat Al-Qur’an tradition of the Banjar community amid its transformation in form and context. The tradition, once conducted privately at home, has evolved into an institutional activity in non-formal and formal educational settings. This research employs a qualitative descriptive method through interviews, observations, and documentation involving Qur’an teacher, head of the institution, and community figure as informants. Data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model with source and method triangulation. The results show that despite the changes in practice, Islamic educational values such as respect for teachers, reverence for the Qur’an, social bonding, charity, and habitual Qur’an recitation remain preserved. These values are reflected in three main dimensions: ʿibâdah (worship), akhlâq (morality), and tawhîd (faith). The batamat Al-Qur’an tradition thus serves as a medium for internalizing Islamic educational values that adapt to contemporary developments.

Abstract

  This study aims to analyze the application of the Window Shopping learning model in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) and Ethics subjects at SMP N 1 Cilacap. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a field study type. The research subjects consisted of PAI teachers and ninth-grade students in class A. Data collection techniques were carried out through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results show that the Window Shopping model is implemented through the stages of planning, implementation, and evaluation of learning. The planning stage includes the preparation of lesson plans and teaching materials. In the implementation stage, teachers begin the lesson with an introduction, followed by group discussions, presentations of work, and “visiting” activities to observe and provide feedback on other groups' work. Evaluation was carried out through assessment for learning using observation and summative assessment techniques. The application of this model showed an increase in student activity, creativity, questioning skills, discussion participation, and understanding of the material. Thus, the Window Shopping model is considered effective in creating interactive and student-centered PAI learning.

Abstract

Resilience is an essential ability that enables children to survive, adapt, and recover from life challenges. However, children living in orphanages often demonstrate low levels of resilience due to experiences of loss, limited emotional support, and the absence of structured psychological guidance. This study aimed to analyze the needs for developing a psychoeducational guidance module based on coping strategies to improve the resilience of orphanage children. The research employed a descriptive qualitative approach using a needs assessment design. The participants were caregivers of Mega Mulia Orphanage in Takalar Regency, selected purposively due to their direct involvement in child guidance. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, and analyzed using data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing with triangulation techniques to ensure validity. The findings revealed that the main problems experienced by orphanage children included difficulties in emotional regulation, low self-confidence, and inadequate adaptive coping strategies. Existing guidance activities were conducted incidentally and lacked systematic guidelines. These results indicate an urgent need to develop a psychoeducational guidance module based on coping strategies as a structured, practical, and sustainable intervention to support the development of resilience among orphanage children.

Abstract

Raising a Child with Special Needs (CSN) presents a complex multidimensional burden, placing mothers at high risk of severe emotional exhaustion. This study aims to explore coping strategies and their impact on the psychological well-being of mothers raising CSN in Tanjung Kumbik Village, Pulau Tiga. Using a descriptive qualitative method with a case study design, data were collected through in-depth interviews and participatory observations of three mothers. The results indicate that mothers are highly vulnerable to emotional exhaustion and chronic sorrow due to heavy caregiving burdens. To cope, participants integrated problem-focused and emotion-focused coping, whose effectiveness was significantly moderated by maternal education levels and family social support. The main finding emphasizes the centrality of Islamic coping—through prayer, patience, trust in God (tawakkul), and perceiving the child as God’s trust—as a fundamental resolution for mothers’ psychological recovery. This spiritual strategy becomes a crucial anchor of resilience, especially for single mothers bearing double burdens without spousal support. It is concluded that spiritual approaches combined with an inclusive family ecological support system are essential in building the psychological well-being of mothers of CSN.

Abstract

Reverence, the practice of profound respect and moral submission to one's teacher, is one of the most distinctive and enduring features of the Salaf Islamic boarding school tradition in Indonesia. However, despite its cultural significance, Reverence has received insufficient theoretical attention in the sociology of Islamic education. This study uses a qualitative case study design to examine how Reverence is theologically grounded, socially transmitted, and culturally negotiated in Salaf Islamic boarding schools in East Java. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with kiai (Islamic scholars), senior ustadz (Islamic teachers), and students from various generations, non-participatory observation, and systematic document analysis. The findings are organized around three interrelated dimensions: (1) Reverence as a practice that is both theological and cultural, rooted in classical Islamic texts such as Al-Zarnuji's Ta'lim al-Muta'allim and Al-Ghazali's Ihya 'Ulum al-Din, expressed through a rich repertoire of bodily, verbal, and spatial rituals; (2) the social mechanisms through which Respect is transmitted and reproduced in Islamic boarding schools, analyzed through Bourdieu's concepts of habitus, field, and capital; and (3) the tensions and negotiations surrounding Respect in the context of modernity, digital culture, and the democratization of Islamic knowledge. This study finds that Respect is not simply a residual pre-modern habit, but a living, contested, and generative moral practice that performs crucial functions in the reproduction of Islamic scholarly authority and the formation of the identity of Islamic students.
