Abstract

Indonesia is known for its diversity of religions, cultures, and ethnicities. Despite this diversity, peaceful and harmonious coexistence remains difficult due to interfaith hatred. Therefore, tolerance and moderation are essential pillars in building a peaceful social life. This harmonious coexistence is evident in Cigugur, Kuningan, West Java. All live side by side and reside in this area. Some of them even live in the same family. Most of the previous research focused on inter-religious tolerance, only a few emphasized the influence of local values ​​and the role of religious leaders in fostering harmony in multi-religious societies. This study seeks to elucidate the manifestation of religious harmony and moderation in Cigugur, focusing on the influence of religious leaders and communal social practices. This qualitative study, employing interviews, observation, and documentation, revealed that religious leaders in Cigugur possess varied perspectives; however, they concur that tolerance, mutual respect, and the appreciation of differences constitute the foundation of a peaceful existence. Interfaith dialogue, interfaith social activities, and local values ​​such as "Different Feelings, One Understanding" all contribute to a more harmonious society. This study demonstrates that harmony is not simply born from formal policies, but rather grows from cultural awareness and the behavior of religious leaders who can serve as role models, prioritizing humanity over differences.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze and develop a contextual curriculum design in Islamic Religious Education (IRE) oriented to the mastery of spiritual science Generation Z students in SMP IT Sahabat Alam. Generation Z, often characterized as a highly digital generation, faces distinctive challenges related to spirituality, including issues of religiosity, technology integration, and identity formation. Using a qualitative approach with a case study design, data were collected through classroom observations, in-depth interviews with PAI teachers and students, and analyses of curriculum documents and instructional materials. The findings indicate that the contextual PAI curriculum design aligns learning materials with students’ everyday realities, thereby enhancing the relevance, applicability, and depth of their understanding. The integration of environmental issues, digital technology, and contemporary social dynamics into PAI content contributes to strengthening students’ spiritual values within their present context. Furthermore, the use of reflection-based learning strategies, open discussions, and integrated social projects proved effective in cultivating spiritual awareness that is adaptive and resilient to external influences. This study highlights the importance of developing a context-based PAI curriculum as a strategic response to the demands of 21st-century education, particularly for Generation Z learners who inhabit an increasingly digital and pluralistic environment

Abstract

This study examines how informal religious education for Muslim women is shaped through the dissemination of content on Instagram, focusing on the account @muslimahorid as the primary unit of analysis. Using a qualitative approach grounded in netnography, the study finds that religious learning in digital spaces takes place not only through the verbal delivery of religious materials but also through visual representations, everyday narratives, and user interactions. Religious learning emerges from processes of sharing personal experiences, moral advice, and emotional support that are spontaneously exchanged within the digital sphere. This phenomenon demonstrates that social media can function as a flexible, participatory, and community-based learning environment, where Islamic values and norms are reproduced through a culture of sharing. The study contributes to the development of Islamic education studies by emphasizing the importance of understanding the dynamics of religiosity in the era of new media. Although limited by its focus on a single account, the findings open new directions for future research to explore the transformation of informal religious education across diverse communities and digital platforms.

Abstract

The global environmental crisis demands a transformative educational approach, particularly in Islamic Religious Education (IRE), which has traditionally been anthropocentric.  This conceptual study proposes a paradigm shift by integrating Islamic eco-theology into IRE curriculum development. Through qualitative analysis, utilizing library research and conceptual analysis of primary Islamic sources and curriculum theory, we construct a framework based on a Theo-Eco-Centric paradigm—positioning the God-human-nature relationship as foundational. The framework aims to cultivate an Eco-Conscious Muslim who internalizes the values of khalifah (stewardship) and amanah (trust) as environmental ethics.  This is operationalized through systematic integration across core IRE subjects (Aqidah, Akhlak, Fiqh, History), employing transformative pedagogies like project-based learning and critical eco-theology circles, and authentic assessment via portfolios and scenario-based evaluations. The study concludes that this framework represents a significant reorientation of IRE, empowering it to address contemporary ecological challenges.  As a conceptual proposal, it requires future empirical validation. The research contributes to Islamic educational reform and broader interfaith dialogues on sustainability.

Abstract

This study investigates the level of understanding of religious moderation and the concept of Rahmatan lil-‘Alamin among prospective professional Islamic Education (PAI) teachers enrolled in the Teacher Professional Education (PPG) Program of the Ministry of Religious Affairs. Employing a descriptive quantitative survey design, data were collected from 1,287 participants of the 2025 Batch 3 PPG PAI Program using a validated and reliable questionnaire covering dimensions of religious moderation national commitment, tolerance, anti-violence, and cultural accommodation and Rahmatan lil-‘Alamin values such as compassion, justice, and public benefit. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson’s correlation, and ANOVA through SPSS. The findings reveal that participants exhibit a high level of understanding of both constructs, with notable variations across gender and educational background. A strong positive correlation was found between the understanding of religious moderation and Rahmatan lil-‘Alamin (r > 0.70, p < 0.01), indicating that higher moderation literacy aligns with greater internalization of universal Islamic values. These results affirm the strategic role of the PPG program as a transformative platform for developing educators who embody inclusive, tolerant, and humanistic perspectives in Islamic education. The study contributes to the literature by integrating two theoretical frameworks religious moderation and Rahmatan lil-‘Alamin ethics into a single empirical model.

Abstract

This study aims to design and implement a Game-Based Learning (GBL) model to enhance student engagement in Islamic Education (PAI) at the higher education level. The main issue addressed is the low student engagement due to the dominance of lecture-based methods and distractions from smartphone use in class. Generation Z students, in the digital era, demand more interactive and contextual learning models. A game-based learning approach is an innovative solution, turning digital devices from distractions into engaging Islamic learning tools. This research adopts the ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation). The analysis phase involved interviews with five Islamic Education lecturers, analyzed using NVivo 12 software to identify learning needs. The design phase produced a six-stage GBL flow: orientation, exploration, interaction, reflection, evaluation, and closure. The development phase used the Wayground platform, integrating features like Voting, Word Cloud, Quiz, and Essay Response for interactive learning. The model was tested on 100 PAI students to measure effectiveness. Findings show significant improvements in cognitive, affective, and behavioral engagement, making students more active, motivated, and reflective on Islamic values. The model proved valid and effective, transforming smartphones into productive tools for Islamic learning.

Abstract

This research is motivated by the emergence of the faithfluencer phenomenon as a new religious authority figure in the digital era that significantly shapes the religious mindset and practices of Generation Z. This change marks a shift from traditional religious authority to a more interactive and contextual, and media-based digital authority. The purpose of this study is to analyze the role of faithfluencers in shaping digital piety and redefining religious authority among Generation Z through social media. This study uses a qualitative approach with descriptive analysis through observation of content on Instagram and TikTok platforms, as well as interviews with active followers. The results show that faithfluencers function not only as conveyors of da'wah messages, but also as social and spiritual mediators who combine religious values with a popular communication style. The digital piety produced through this interaction tends to be reflective, participatory, and experiential, emphasizing personal meaning-making rather than rigid doctrinal transmission. The contribution of this research lies in developing the concept of digital religious authority that is adaptive to the spiritual needs of the younger generation and serves as a strategic reference for religious institutions in optimizing social media-based da'wah that is relevant to the dynamics of today's digital culture.

Abstract

This study explores the integration of IMTAK (Faith and Piety) and IPTEK (Science and Technology) in Islamic higher education, focusing on how lecturers combine spiritual values and Technology to enhance learning outcomes. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through semi-structured interviews, participatory observations, and document analysis involving three lecturers and their students. Findings indicate that the integration of IMTAK and IPTEK creates a holistic learning experience, in which students not only acquire academic knowledge but also internalize the principles of faith and piety through personal reflection, ethical decision-making, and respectful social interaction. The use of digital platforms and AI facilitates interactive learning, critical thinking, and responsible academic practice, ensuring that Technology supports rather than replaces reflection and ethical behavior. This integrative approach also enhances students' understanding, intrinsic motivation, and social responsibility, producing learners who are academically competent, character-driven, and spiritually grounded. The study highlights a contemporary paradigm in Islamic education, where mastery of knowledge and Technology aligns with the development of faith, piety, and student character.

Abstract

This research investigates the reinforcement of religious moderation through Islamic Religious Education (IRE) at Yogyakarta State University. Employing a qualitative case study approach, the study engaged IRE lecturers and students through observations, interviews, and focus group discussions. Data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model. The findings reveal that religious moderation has been successfully implemented, with tasamuh (tolerance) and tawassuth (moderation) emerging as the core values. However, despite high foundational understanding, a cognitive gap persists among a minority of students regarding non-violence. The study concludes that strengthening religious moderation requires a shift from lecturer-centric delivery to a systematic, technology-integrated academic culture. Effective pedagogical strategies identified include collaborative project-based learning and contextual discussions. These results underscore the necessity for innovative teaching materials and structured assessments to bridge conceptual gaps. Consequently, integrating moderation values into the university's broader institutional framework is essential for sustainable character development in higher education.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the digital identity of Salafiyah santri (Islamic boarding school students) amidst the pervasive use of social media such as TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube. Initially regarded as a space for entertainment and information, social media has now become an arena for self-expression and Islamic proselytization (dakwah) for some santri. However, these digital activities often come into tension with the core values of the pesantren (Islamic boarding school), particularly zuhud (asceticism or simplicity) and tawadhu' (humility), which reject excessiveness and self-promotion. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach, utilizing Giddens' theory of reflexive identity and Goffman's dramaturgical theory to understand how santri form and negotiate their self-image in the digital realm. Preliminary findings indicate that the santri experience moral ambivalence: on one hand, they strive to spread Islamic values through digital dakwah content, yet on the other hand, they grapple with the pressure to appear popular and appealing in the eyes of the online public. The study is expected to contribute to the development of a digital ethic for santri as part of the broader transformation of pesantren culture in the digital era
