Abstract

Integration of digital technology in fiqh learning is an important aspect in the fast-paced information era, where access to educational materials is increasingly easy and diverse. This study aims to analyze the challenges faced in the application of digital technology in fiqh learning and identify effective strategies to overcome them. The research method used is a qualitative approach with literature studies and direct observation as the main data collection techniques. This study analyzes various academic sources, educational policy documents, and reports on fiqh learning practices that have implemented digital technology. In addition, observations were conducted at several fiqh educational institutions in Indonesia to understand the real context of technology application in learning. The results of the study indicate that the main challenges faced include lack of adequate training for teachers, inadequate technological infrastructure, and resistance to change from some parties. Nevertheless, the integration of digital technology has great potential in increasing student engagement and the effectiveness of fiqh learning. The proposed strategies include increasing ongoing training for teachers to improve digital skills, developing adaptive and responsive curricula to technological developments, and collaborating with third parties to provide necessary resources, such as learning software and applications. The conclusion of this study confirms that with the right approach, the integration of digital technology can enrich the experience of learning fiqh, improve understanding, and make fiqh materials more accessible. This study is expected to contribute to the development of more relevant and effective fiqh education in the digital era, as well as being a reference for educational policies that support technology integration.

Abstract

Tanjung Pinang City, with its natural resource potential in the form of bauxite ore, has experienced problems related to illegal mining activities (PETI) involving CV. Tri Karya Abadi. This case began with a report by PT Kemayan Bintan regarding theft and land grabbing in 2009. Investigations showed that CV. Tri Karya Abadi, despite having a limited permit, carried out exploitation outside the permitted area, utilizing heavy equipment and manipulative methods to obtain maximum profit. These activities resulted in the export of large amounts of bauxite to foreign countries. The investigation by the Criminal Investigation Unit of the Tanjung Pinang Police faced procedural obstacles, but succeeded in determining the main suspect and documenting the violations through the Investigation Report (BAP). In its resolution, this case dragged various parties with the application of sanctions based on Law No. 4 of 2009. An important lesson from this case is the need for synergy between the community, the police, and related agencies to prevent and take firm action against illegal mining activities. Consistent law enforcement with a multi-door system approach is key to protecting the environment and ensuring legal compliance.

Abstract

This paper explores the educational philosophy of KH. Imam Zarkasyi, the founder of Pondok Modern Darussalam Gontor, and his significant contributions to modernizing Islamic education in Indonesia. Imam Zarkasyi's approach redefined the traditional pesantren model by integrating religious and secular education to prepare students for the challenges of the modern world. His educational philosophy emphasized a balance between moral, intellectual, and spiritual development, with the goal of producing independent, ethical, and globally aware graduates. This study examines the background and biography of Imam Zarkasyi, the core educational values he implemented at Gontor, and his lasting impact on contemporary Islamic education in Indonesia. Through a qualitative literature review of primary and secondary sources, this research identifies Gontor’s education system as a model of Islamic education that fosters both character and knowledge, contributing to the broader reform of pesantren education in Indonesia.

Abstract

The curriculum and learning of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) at the Senior High School (SMA) level face significant challenges in line with the dynamics of modern society, especially in strategic areas such as Batam City, which is multicultural and industry-oriented. Curriculum innovation is an urgent necessity to ensure that PAI learning can meet the demands of the times and strengthen students' character. This study aims to identify and develop a relevant and applicable model of curriculum and PAI learning innovation in SMA Batam City. The research method used is qualitative with a library research approach. Data were obtained through a literature review of academic books, scientific journals, and official documents relevant to the theme of curriculum and PAI learning innovation. The analysis was conducted descriptively and analytically on various existing curriculum models and innovation processes. The results of the study show that several innovation models can be adapted in the development of PAI curriculum and learning in high schools, including the R-D-D model (Research, Development, and Diffusion), the Organizational Development model, and the Configuration model. These three models provide a systematic approach to the educational innovation process, from design and implementation to diffusion and routinization within the school environment. In addition, the proposed innovation process follows the dynamic initiation and implementation stages based on the theories of Rogers and Zaltman. In conclusion, the development of curriculum and PAI learning innovation models in SMA Batam City needs to consider the local socio-cultural conditions, teacher readiness, and institutional support. The appropriate implementation of these models is believed to improve the quality of religious education to be more contextual, adaptive, and impactful on the formation of students’ character.

Abstract

The precise and effective formulation of educational objectives is crucial in realizing the vision and mission of educational institutions, especially at the Madrasah Aliyah level, which plays an important role in shaping students' character and competencies based on Islamic values. However, in practice, a gap still exists between the formulation of educational objectives and the achievement of the institution’s vision and mission, which impacts the quality of learning and educational management. This study aims to identify and analyze effective strategies implemented by Madrasah Aliyah in formulating educational objectives that align with the institution’s vision and mission. The research method used is qualitative descriptive with a case study approach, involving principals, teachers, and curriculum development teams as research subjects. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and analysis of educational planning documents. The results show that effective strategies include a participatory approach involving all stakeholders, the use of continuous evaluation as a basis for formulating objectives, and the integration of Islamic values that strengthen character education orientation. The alignment between educational objectives and the institution’s vision and mission has also been proven to enhance the effectiveness of learning program implementation and the achievement of both academic and non-academic student accomplishments. In conclusion, strategic and value-oriented formulation of educational objectives is a key factor in achieving the vision and mission of Madrasah Aliyah, thus requiring the strengthening of managerial capacity and a sustainable evaluation system.

Abstract

The rapid changes in Indonesia's socio-political landscape have highlighted the urgency of reconstructing the governance of civil society organizations, especially in balancing the tension between the freedom of association and public order. This tension has emerged as a contemporary trend filled with controversy and civil unrest. This study aims to formulate a model of governance for civil society organizations based on Islamic values, using three theoretical frameworks: Najm al-Din al-Tufi's Maṣlaḥah Theory, Robert Putnam's Civil Society Theory, and Mark Bevir's Good Governance Theory. The methodology used is a qualitative-descriptive approach, which includes data collection through policy documentation, digital media analysis, and in-depth interviews with two key informants from religious-based civil society organizations—Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) and Persatuan Islam (PERSIS). Primary sources include official government documents such as Government Regulation in Lieu of Law (Perpu) No. 2 of 2017 and Minister of Home Affairs Regulation No. 57 of 2017, alongside empirical narratives from community leaders. The research findings suggest that the social legitimacy of civil society organizations is more influenced by the practical application of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah (obligatory duties) and their ability to address the real needs of society than by mere adherence to administrative regulations. These findings highlight the gap between legality and legitimacy and emphasize that integrating the values of maṣlaḥah (benefit), social capital, and transparency is essential to strengthening civil society in a democratic state. By embedding Islamic values into the governance models, civil society organizations can better serve the community while maintaining democratic principles, creating a more inclusive and beneficial governance framework that aligns with both public needs and Islamic teachings.

Abstract

This research examines the vital role of pesantren education in embedding and sustaining moral values within the broader social context, with a particular focus on Pondok Pesantren Raudlatul Muta’allimin Kudus. As traditional Islamic institutions, pesantren not only function as centers for religious instruction but also act as moral guardians that shape the character, ethics, and social behavior of students and their surrounding communities. In the midst of rapid globalization and shifting cultural dynamics, pesantren face the challenge of preserving the relevance of Islamic values while adapting to contemporary realities. The purpose of this study is to investigate how pesantren education contributes to moral development and to identify strategies utilized to instill Islamic ethics. Using a qualitative case study approach, the research gathered data through interviews, direct observation, and documentation involving kyai, teachers, students, and community members. The findings show that pesantren foster moral growth through structured daily rituals, integration of moral teachings in curriculum, exemplary leadership (uswah), and active community-based programs. These practices build discipline, honesty, empathy, and social responsibility in students, which in turn positively affect the surrounding society. Furthermore, the leadership model demonstrated by kyai and teachers plays a central role in reinforcing values through example, rather than instruction alone. The study concludes that pesantren education continues to serve as a powerful moral force by blending religious instruction with practical community engagement, ensuring that values are not only taught but also lived. This underscores the relevance of pesantren as adaptive agents of moral transformation capable of addressing the ethical challenges of modern Muslim societies. It also highlights that the pesantren framework can serve as a replicable model for strengthening character education in diverse social and cultural contexts, making it both traditional and forward-looking.

Abstract

Islamic education holds a strategic position in shaping students’ moral character and social attitudes within multicultural societies. However, Islamic educational curricula are frequently perceived as prioritizing normative-textual transmission and doctrinal compliance, leaving limited room for interfaith dialogue and the cultivation of inclusive dispositions. This study critically assesses Islamic educational curriculum orientations and examines how sharia-based moral pedagogy can foster interfaith tolerance among students. The study also responds to the limited empirical linkage between sharia moral education and measurable developments in tolerance, inclusivity, and dialogic competence in Islamic schooling contexts. Using a qualitative design with descriptive-critical analysis, the research draws on curriculum document analysis and classroom observations across several Islamic educational institutions. Data are analyzed thematically to identify how three key curricular dimensions-akhlak (ethical conduct), maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah (higher moral objectives), and Islamic civilization history-are embedded and enacted in teaching practices, as well as how these elements shape students’ attitudes toward religious difference. The results indicate that akhlak-centered learning supports empathy, mutual respect, and non-discriminatory behavior by framing morality as lived practice rather than abstract instruction. Integrating maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah strengthens students’ inclusive orientation by emphasizing public good, justice, and human dignity as guiding principles for social relations. Additionally, teaching Islamic civilization history-especially narratives of coexistence-enhances students’ awareness of interfaith engagement and positions dialogue as compatible with Islamic identity. A comparative analysis suggests that sharia-based moral pedagogy is more effective than normative-textual curricula in building tolerant and inclusive student dispositions, mainly because it enables reflective learning, contextual moral reasoning, and dialogic interaction.

Abstract

This study explores the integration of Islamic epistemology with modern scientific methodologies, proposing a pluralistic epistemic framework that bridges the gap between divine revelation (wahyu), rationality (aql), and empirical knowledge. The research investigates the comparative relationship between traditional Islamic knowledge systems, particularly classical Qur'anic hermeneutics, modern tafsir approaches, and contemporary scientific methods. Traditional Islamic epistemology, grounded in metaphysical and theological frameworks, often emphasizes the separation of spiritual knowledge from empirical science. However, modern scientific methodologies, which prioritize empirical observation and rational inquiry, have created challenges for reconciling Islamic thought with contemporary scientific paradigms. This study identifies common epistemic grounds, such as the use of reason, observation, and the search for truth, as shared goals between Islamic epistemology and modern science. The proposed integrative model of Islamic epistemic pluralism offers a more cohesive and relevant approach to knowledge by acknowledging both spiritual and scientific insights. This model suggests that divine revelation and empirical science can coexist in an inclusive epistemic framework, providing a more comprehensive understanding of reality. The implications of this integrative model for Islamic thought, education, and research are significant, suggesting potential for broader interdisciplinary collaboration and a more holistic approach to addressing modern challenges. The study concludes by calling for further research into practical frameworks for applying Islamic epistemic pluralism across various fields, such as social sciences, engineering, and environmental studies, to contribute to a more inclusive and dynamic global intellectual discourse.

Abstract

This article examines the possibility of reconstructing Islamic epistemology through the integration of classical Ilm al-Usūl principles with modern epistemic challenges. The revivalist/textualist, reformist/maqāṣidī, and critical-hermeneutic approaches to Islamic epistemology are discussed, each contributing a unique perspective on the reconciliation of traditional Islamic knowledge with modern intellectual developments. The main objective is to analyze how Ilm al-Usūl can maintain its normative foundations while responding to contemporary issues such as misinformation, the growing complexity of scientific knowledge, and the fragmentation of epistemic authority. By examining maqāṣid al-sharīʿa, ḥujjiyyah, and other core concepts within Ilm al-Usūl, the article proposes a conceptual bridge that balances revelation with empirical data, fostering a more adaptive epistemological framework. The research design follows a conceptual-analytical library approach, utilizing both classical Islamic legal texts and modern epistemological literature, including social epistemology and theories of knowledge justification. The results reveal that the reconstruction model offers a more comprehensive solution compared to traditional approaches, addressing modern epistemic challenges without abandoning foundational Islamic principles. The discussion highlights the importance of modernizing the methodology to include empirical tools like data literacy and ethical considerations, while maintaining the normative integrity of Islamic knowledge. The article concludes by presenting practical implications for Islamic education and religious authority, recommending the integration of scientific literacy and modern epistemic practices into Ilm al-Usūl curricula. It also suggests future research on specific case studies and the development of modern indicators of epistemic authority.
