Abstract

Islam entered Malaysia through trade, especially by Arab, Indian and Chinese traders since the 7th century, but wider spread occurred in the 13th century through the Kingdoms of Samudera Pasai and Melaka. The Islamization process became stronger with the role of the Malay kingdoms in making Islam the official religion, establishing a sharia-based government system, and introducing Jawi writing as the main medium in education and administration.The development of Islamic education in Malaysia began with the Islamic boarding school and madrasa system which emphasized traditional religious teachings. In the colonial era, Islamic education underwent changes with the establishment of folk religious schools and modern madrasas which combined religious and academic curricula. After independence, the Malaysian government introduced a more formal Islamic education system through national religious schools, tahfiz institutions, and Islamic universities. This development was strengthened by the introduction of JAKIM, the Malaysian Ministry of Education, as well as an educational foundation that supports the integration of Islamic values ​​in the national education system. Today, Islamic education in Malaysia continues to develop through technology and innovation, ensuring it is relevant in the modern world while preserving Islamic scientific traditions.

Abstract

The instructional leadership of school principals is a strategic factor in improving the quality of education, particularly in shaping teacher performance and professionalism. In the context of modern educational challenges, school principals do not only act as administrative managers but also as educational leaders capable of guiding, mentoring, and developing teachers' capacities. This study aims to identify the influence of instructional leadership on teachers' performance and professionalism, as well as to uncover the dominant leadership strategies used in schools. The research questions addressed are: (1) How does instructional leadership influence teacher performance and professionalism? and (2) What are the dominant instructional leadership strategies in improving education quality? The study method uses a systematic literature review (SLR) approach by searching articles through Google Scholar and Publish or Perish (PoP) using the keyword ‘guided inquiry search.’ Out of a total of 50 articles, five main articles were analysed in depth. The findings indicate that instructional leadership significantly influences teachers' work motivation, self-efficacy, and professional development. The most dominant strategies include academic supervision, strengthening the school's vision, and fostering a collaborative work environment. This study underscores the urgency of strengthening the instructional role of school principals and recommends further studies based on meta-analysis and a cross-national contextual approach.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the implementation of the Focus Group Discussion (FGD) method in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) learning and its impact on improving critical thinking skills of grade VIII students at SMP Entrepreneur Ar-Ridwan Gunung Tawang Selomerto Wonosobo. The background of this study is based on the needs of 21st century learning that requires students to have critical, collaborative, and communicative thinking skills. This study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive research type. Data collection techniques are carried out through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. Data analysis uses data reduction techniques, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the study indicate that the FGD method has been implemented systematically in PAI learning through the formation of small discussion groups, trigger questions, and presentation of discussion results. The teacher acts as an active facilitator who encourages student participation evenly. The positive impacts of the implementation of FGD include increased active student participation, the ability to convey arguments logically, and the growth of reflective and critical attitudes. However, the implementation of FGD also faces several obstacles such as time constraints, differences in communication skills, and the unequal distribution of student confidence in open discussions. These obstacles are overcome through classroom management strategies such as role rotation, providing discussion training, and habituating a culture of dialogue. Thus, the FGD method has proven effective in improving students' critical thinking skills and forming a collaborative and participatory learning culture.

Abstract

The phenomenon of bullying in schools remains a serious issue that affects students' psychological and social development. One strategic approach to minimizing bullying is by instilling the values of religious moderation within the school environment. Religious moderation promotes tolerance, justice, balance, and respect for diversity—principles that are essential in shaping students' character to live harmoniously in a plural society. This study aims to examine the role of religious moderation education in reducing bullying behavior in schools. A qualitative descriptive method was used, involving observation, interviews, and documentation in several secondary schools. The findings reveal that integrating the values of religious moderation into learning activities, school culture, and teacher role modeling contributes to creating an inclusive and welcoming school climate. Moreover, students become more aware of the importance of mutual respect and rejecting any form of violence. Therefore, embedding religious moderation values holds potential as a preventive solution to build a safe and supportive school environment for all members of the school community.

Abstract

The Islamic ethics of war are an important part of Sharia teachings, emphasizing that moral and humanitarian principles must be upheld during times of conflict. Islam does not view war as an ultimate goal, but rather as a last resort for defending justice, fighting oppression, and protecting people from real threats. In this context, the Quran and the sayings of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) provide clear guidelines for Muslims to follow when engaging in war. These include prohibitions against killing non-combatants, such as women, children, and the elderly. They also prohibit dangerous public institutions, worship, and neighborhoods. Muslims are also obligated to treat prisoners of war humanely. The Qur'an and Hadith clearly regulate the treatment of prisoners of war, emphasizing the principles of justice, respect for humanity, and the rights of individuals in the midst of warfare. Understanding and applying Islamic war ethics invites Muslims to avoid an aggressive attitude and to use war as a means of defending noble values while maintaining human dignity. This research uses the thematic method to analyze hadiths about war. The results of this research are broadly covered in three areas: the definition of war, the prohibition of cruel actions in war, and war strategies. The results of the research are expected to provide insight as well as a foundation for further discussion.

Abstract

Empathy is generally understood as the ability to feel and understand the feelings of others, the nature of empathy is very necessary and very crucial in Islamic social ethics and morality. In the treasury of Islam, the hadith of the Prophet Muhammad SWT is the second source of teachings after the Qur'an playing a central role in shaping the understanding of human values, including empathy. This study focuses on the analysis of the position and teaching of empathy in the hadiths of the Prophet, as well as its impact on the formation of Muslim social character. Using qualitative methods and literature studies, this study analyzes hadiths that clearly or implicitly convey messages of empathy. The findings of the study show that in the hadith, empathy is not just an emotional response, but a manifestation of moral responsibility that is manifested through compassion, justice, solidarity, and concern for others. Thus, the hadiths of the Prophet become a normative basis that emphasizes the significance of empathy as the main pillar in realizing a civilized and just Islamic society.
