Abstract

This study aims to examine the philosophical thought of Ibn Sina within the framework of the classical Islamic intellectual tradition, with particular emphasis on the formation of his philosophical system, his synthesis of revelation and reason, and his metaphysical concepts of God and the soul. This research employs a qualitative method with a content analysis approach. Primary data are derived from Ibn Sina’s major philosophical works, while secondary data are obtained from relevant scholarly literature. The analysis is conducted through systematic coding, categorization, and interpretation of key themes related to metaphysics, theology, and philosophical synthesis, in order to identify patterns, conceptual structures, and underlying meanings in Ibn Sina’s thought. The findings indicate that Ibn Sina developed a coherent philosophical system that successfully integrates Greek rational philosophy with Islamic theological principles. His concept of Wajib al-Wujud (Necessary Being) positions God as the absolute and self-subsistent first cause, while his theory of the soul conceptualizes it as an immaterial, rational, and eternal substance. Furthermore, his framework demonstrates a systematic reconciliation between reason and revelation, reflecting a distinctive characteristic of classical Islamic intellectual tradition. The study implies that Ibn Sina’s philosophical synthesis remains relevant for contemporary intellectual discourse, particularly in addressing the relationship between religion and rationality. It also underscores the significant contribution of classical Islamic philosophy to global philosophical development and provides a conceptual foundation for further research using interdisciplinary and comparative approaches.

Abstract

Assessment practices in Islamic Education have predominantly relied on written tests that emphasize cognitive outcomes, often neglecting students’ attitudes and skills. This study aims to examine the implementation of authentic assessment as a comprehensive evaluation approach by integrating theoretical perspectives and practical realities. Using a qualitative method with a content analysis approach, this study synthesizes contemporary assessment theories and relevant empirical findings. The results indicate that authentic assessment methods, such as performance tasks, projects, and portfolios, are theoretically appropriate for measuring the internalization of Islamic values and students’ real-life behavior. However, their implementation faces significant challenges, particularly related to administrative complexity and limited instructional time. This study highlights the need for more practical assessment designs and the enhancement of teachers’ competencies in developing objective assessment rubrics to support effective character education.

Abstract

Collaboration between parents and teachers plays a strategic role in strengthening religious education among elementary school students, particularly in shaping worship habits, moral conduct, and learning motivation grounded in religious values. This issue has become increasingly important due to the challenges posed by social and technological developments that influence children's religious behavior. This study aims to analyze the forms of collaboration between parents and Islamic Education teachers and to examine its impact on students’ religious achievement at the elementary school level. This research employs a qualitative method with a case study approach. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation. The data were analyzed systematically through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that collaboration is manifested through intensive communication between school and family, parental support in fostering worship practices at home, and the synergy in implementing school religious programs, such as extracurricular activities and daily religious routines. This collaboration contributes positively to improving students’ abilities in worship practices, moral behavior, and active participation in religious activities. The study concludes that sustained partnerships between parents and teachers are a crucial factor in developing students’ religious achievement. The stronger the collaboration established, the more optimal the students’ religious development in terms of knowledge, attitudes, and worship practices.

Abstract

The ability to recite the Quran with proper pronunciation in accordance with the rules of tajweed is a fundamental competency in Islamic education. However, many students have not yet mastered it to the fullest extent. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of the Jibril method on students’ ability to recite the Quran. This study employs a qualitative approach with a case study design to explore the application of the Jibril method within the context of non-formal Islamic education. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation involving educators, institutional administrators, and students, and were subsequently analyzed through data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results indicate that the Jibril method significantly improves reading fluency, accuracy of articulation points, and mastery of tajweed. Furthermore, this method also enhances students’ learning motivation, discipline, and active engagement. These findings indicate that the Jibril method is an effective learning strategy for improving Quranic reading skills in non-formal Islamic education; however, its optimal and sustainable implementation requires support from educators’ competencies and systematic learning management.

Abstract

Character education has become a strategic issue in education, particularly at the primary school level, in response to moral degradation and the weakening of ethical values in society. This study aims to analyze the implementation of religious culture in character education, including its forms, strategies, and impacts on students’ character development in an Islamic primary school. This study employed a qualitative research design with a case study approach. Data were collected through observations, interviews, and documentation involving school principals, teachers, and students. The data were analyzed using an interactive analysis model consisting of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. Data validity was ensured through source and method triangulation. The findings indicate that religious culture is implemented through various religious habituation activities, teacher role modeling, and the strengthening of school culture integrated into daily practices. The implementation is carried out through three main strategies: structured and continuous practices, integration of religious values into school life, and early habituation of character values. These strategies effectively foster students’ religious values, discipline, responsibility, and politeness. The impact of religious culture is reflected not only in the school environment but also in students’ behavior within their families. In conclusion, religious culture serves as a strategic approach to strengthening character education, with sustainable implications for students’ character development in Islamic primary schools.

Abstract

This study is motivated by the need for a more humanistic educational approach in responding to students’ social dynamics within Islamic education settings. Existing curricula tend to emphasize cognitive aspects and have not fully integrated affective dimensions based on values of compassion and love. This study aims to analyze the improvement of teachers’ understanding and pedagogical competence in implementing a love-based curriculum. A qualitative approach with a case study design was employed in this research. Data were collected through observations of training activities, analysis of teachers’ lesson plans, and documentation of limited implementation practices. The data were then analyzed using a descriptive-interpretive technique. The findings indicate an improvement in teachers’ conceptual understanding of the love-based curriculum, reflected in their ability to design more empathetic, participatory, and positive reinforcement-oriented learning activities. Teachers also demonstrated a shift toward more reflective pedagogical practices, emphasizing warm and meaningful educational relationships. These findings suggest that a love-based curriculum has the potential to serve as a strategic approach in strengthening character education and fostering more meaningful pedagogical relationships within Islamic education contexts.

Abstract

The rapid development of digital technology has significantly transformed social life and educational practices, creating both opportunities and challenges for strengthening Islamic character education. Digital disruption has led to various issues, including moral degradation, weakening internalization of Islamic values, and exposure to unfiltered information, particularly among the younger generation. This study aims to examine strategies for strengthening Islamic character education in the context of digital disruption. This research employs a qualitative approach using content analysis of relevant sources, including books, scholarly articles, and prior studies. The findings reveal that strengthening Islamic character requires integrative strategies, including the internalization of Quranic and Sunnah values, role modeling by educators, the utilization of digital technology as a medium for moral education, and collaboration among educational institutions, families, and communities. This study contributes by proposing a conceptual framework for Islamic character education that is adaptive to digital transformation while maintaining its spiritual and moral foundations.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the integration of Artificial Intelligence in Islamic Religious Education learning through the perspectives of constructivist theory and the scientific approach in the Society 5.0 era. Islamic Religious Education learning is expected not only to develop the spiritual dimension but also to promote active, reflective, and contextual engagement of learners. Within this framework, constructivism positions learners as active subjects in constructing knowledge, while the scientific approach emphasizes a systematic learning process through the stages of observing, questioning, experimenting, reasoning, and communicating. This study employs a qualitative research method with a content analysis approach by examining scientific literature, educational regulations, and relevant learning theories. The findings reveal a gap between ideal expectations and the actual implementation of Artificial Intelligence in Islamic Religious Education learning, which is caused by limited digital competence among teachers, the absence of well-formulated ethical guidelines for the use of Artificial Intelligence, and the lack of learning models integrated with Islamic values. This study highlights the urgency of developing an Artificial Intelligence-based Islamic Religious Education learning model that is constructivist and scientific as a conceptual contribution to addressing educational challenges in the Society 5.0 era.

Abstract

This study examines the role of Islamic primary educational institutions, particularly madrasah and boarding-based schools, in promoting multicultural education. It focuses on both academic and non-academic strategies in fostering inclusive, tolerant, and diversity-aware student character. The study aims to explore how multicultural values are integrated through curriculum design, extracurricular activities, and social interactions within the school environment. This research employs a qualitative approach using content analysis. Data were collected from relevant books, journal articles, and academic documents related to multicultural education and Islamic schooling. The data were systematically analyzed through coding, categorization, and interpretation to identify key themes, institutional roles, and educational practices. The findings reveal that these institutions play a significant role in developing multicultural education. Academically, inclusive teaching approaches are implemented to respect cultural and religious diversity. Non-academically, activities such as arts, sports, social projects, and intercultural dialogue contribute to strengthening students’ tolerance, empathy, and collaborative skills. This study highlights the importance of curriculum reinforcement, teacher capacity building, and community engagement in enhancing the effectiveness of multicultural education. The findings contribute to strengthening the discourse on Islamic education and its role in fostering social cohesion in diverse societies.

Abstract

Islamic religious education in early childhood plays a crucial role in establishing the foundations of faith, moral values, and a love for the Quran. However, the ability to read short surahs among children aged 5–6 years remains relatively low, particularly in mastering hijaiyah letters, applying tajweed rules, and distinguishing between long and short pronunciations. This study aims to examine the effect of the talaqqi method on the ability to read short surahs in early childhood. This study employed a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design involving an experimental group and a control group. The sample consisted of 30 children selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a test of short surah reading ability and analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics, including tests of normality, homogeneity, and an independent samples t-test. The results showed that the mean score of reading ability in the experimental group (M = 80.93) was higher than that of the control group (M = 73.67). The hypothesis testing indicated that the calculated t-value (2.175) was greater than the critical t-value (2.160) at a significance level of 0.05, indicating a statistically significant effect of the talaqqi method on reading ability. These findings suggest that the talaqqi method is effective in improving Quranic reading skills in early childhood.
