Abstract

This study examines the concept of kafa’ah from the perspective of contemporary Muslim women as a basis for selectivity in partner selection amid the phenomenon of reverse gender inequality. In contemporary social contexts, women are no longer positioned merely as objects within marital relations, but as active subjects possessing autonomy in determining their life partners. The growing discourse surrounding the perception that “marriage is scary” has further reinforced women’s selective attitudes toward marriage institutions. This research employs a qualitative method with an empirical socio-legal approach. Data are collected through literature review and are intended to be complemented by in-depth interviews with women aged 20–40 years who possess higher educational backgrounds. The data are analyzed using thematic analysis. Preliminary findings indicate that the concept of kafa’ah has undergone a significant transformation, shifting from a normative understanding of compatibility based on social status toward broader dimensions of equality, including shared values, life vision, emotional maturity, and psychological readiness. Contemporary Muslim women experience substantial social changes that influence their expectations and considerations in choosing a partner. The study concludes that kafa’ah in contemporary Muslim women’s perspectives is no longer limited to social equivalence, but increasingly emphasizes value alignment, emotional compatibility, and mutual readiness as essential foundations for marital relationships.

Abstract

This study examines Sunni–Shia marriage in Indonesia as a socio-legal phenomenon situated within the broader context of religious diversity and Muslim family law. Although Indonesian Islamic family law formally recognizes marriage between Sunni and Shia Muslims, social acceptance of such marriages remains contested in many Muslim communities. Using a qualitative empirical method with a socio-legal approach, this research explores the experiences of Sunni–Shia couples in Bondowoso, East Java, focusing on religious negotiation, social dynamics, and the interaction between formal law and communal norms. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation, and analyzed using thematic analysis integrated with the framework of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah. The findings reveal that Sunni–Shia marriages are characterized by continuous processes of adaptation and negotiation within family and social life. Couples frequently develop strategies of compromise regarding religious practices, child upbringing, and communal interaction in order to maintain family harmony. However, many also experience social stigma, communal suspicion, and challenges related to sectarian identity. From the perspective of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah, the phenomenon reflects an ambivalent relationship between maṣlaḥah and mafsadah, particularly concerning the protection of religion, emotional well-being, and lineage. The study concludes that Sunni–Shia marriage illustrates the dynamic operation of legal pluralism within Indonesian Muslim society and highlights the importance of contextual and inclusive approaches in contemporary Muslim family law.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the development of a 21st-century competency-based adaptive curriculum from the perspective of Islamic education management in Islamic higher education. Rapid technological developments and global educational transformations require educational institutions, including Islamic schools, to design adaptive, contextual, and competency-oriented curricula. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a single case study design. Data were collected through participant observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation studies. Data analysis refers to the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldana, which consists of data condensation, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that understanding of the adaptive curriculum concept among stakeholders is still partial and uneven. The implementation of the adaptive curriculum has not been systematically institutionalized and largely relies on individual teacher initiatives. The strongest supporting factors are innovative school leadership, teacher commitment, and foundation support, while major obstacles include limited digital infrastructure, inadequate teacher training, and cultural barriers related to students' reluctance to express critical opinions. This study also formulates an Adaptive Curriculum Management Model consisting of four cycle phases: needs analysis, 4C-based planning, responsive implementation, and cycle evaluation. This research provides theoretical and practical contributions to the development of adaptive curriculum management in Islamic educational institutions, especially private madrasas that face the challenges of 21st century education.

Abstract

The tradition of wedding gift-giving remains a crucial component of marital practices in many Muslim societies, serving not only as a cultural ritual but also as a social institution that shapes relationships, status, and communal recognition. This study examines the socio-legal dimensions of the tradition of wedding gift-giving (seserahan) among coastal Muslim communities, with particular attention to the interplay between social prestige and Islamic maslahah (benefit). Using a qualitative socio-legal approach, data were collected through semi-structured interviews, participant observation, and document analysis involving religious leaders, community leaders, wedding officiants, family members, and local residents. The findings indicate that wedding gifts serve as a form of symbolic capital through which families gain social recognition, maintain family honor, and strengthen communal legitimacy. This tradition contributes to social cohesion by strengthening kinship ties, fostering solidarity, and supporting family integration. However, the study also found that contemporary socio-economic changes increasingly link wedding gifts to prestige competition, leading to increased social expectations and, in some cases, financial burdens on families. The tradition of wedding gift-giving aligns with Islamic principles when it promotes social welfare, protects family dignity, and strengthens social harmony. Conversely, when prestige-oriented motivations override welfare considerations, the tradition risks giving rise to forms of social and economic hardship that contradict the aims of Islamic law.

Abstract

The transition from the 2013 Curriculum to the Merdeka Curriculum in Indonesia, coupled with the issuance of the Ministerial Regulation No. 11/2025 on Teacher Workload and Ministerial Decree No. 222/O/2025 on Teacher Certification Linearity, has significantly affected the assignment of linear English teachers as classroom teachers in elementary schools. This systematic literature review aims to analyze the impact of certification and workload policies on English teacher assignments, learning coverage and quality, and curriculum development recommendations integrating educational technology. Following the PRISMA 2020 protocol, 44 studies were selected from 1,248 records across Google Scholar, SINTA, GARUDA, Scopus, and ERIC (2013–March 2026) and analyzed using thematic synthesis. Findings reveal that linearity policies create opportunities but compel teachers to assume roles beyond their specialization; workload fulfillment often reduces English instructional time; teaching quality is affected by time constraints and underutilization of technology; and curriculum transition increases autonomy yet leaves assignment challenges unresolved. Integrating educational technologies such as Learning Management Systems, AI-assisted tools, augmented reality, and blended learning can expand English learning coverage while alleviating teacher workload. The study recommends innovative curriculum models emphasizing teacher collaboration, community of practice, and technology integration to optimize the contributions of linear English teachers without compromising student learning hours.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of the entrepreneurship skills education program on entrepreneurial interest among graduates of Course and Training Institution. Specifically, this study examines the influence of five PKW dimensions, namely recruitment and selection, learning and training, startup business mentoring, work equipment support, and marketing and partnership development, on entrepreneurial interest. This research employed a quantitative approach with an associative design. The population of this study consisted of 30 PKW graduates, all of whom were selected as the sample using a saturated sampling technique. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire measured on a five-point Likert scale. The research instrument was tested using validity and reliability tests, while the data were analyzed using multiple linear regression, coefficient of determination (R²), and partial t-tests. The results show that recruitment and selection, learning and training, work equipment support, and marketing and partnership development have a positive and significant effect on entrepreneurial interest. In contrast, startup business mentoring has a negative and statistically insignificant effect on entrepreneurial interest. The coefficient of determination indicates that the five dimensions of the PKW program explain 39.7% of the variance in entrepreneurial interest, while the remaining 60.3% is influenced by other factors outside the model. These findings suggest that the effectiveness of entrepreneurship education programs in vocational training institutions is not only determined by technical training, but also by the quality of participant selection, access to business equipment, and market-oriented support systems.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the need for developing Google Sites-based learning media integrated with the Discovery Learning approach to improve elementary school students' problem-solving skills in science learning. This paper is important because science learning practices in elementary schools are still dominated by teachers and rely on limited interactive learning media, resulting in low conceptual understanding and limited opportunities for students to develop higher-order thinking and problem-solving skills. This study uses a descriptive mixed-methods approach by combining qualitative and quantitative data. Data were collected through classroom observations, interviews with teachers and students, student needs questionnaires, and analysis of learning documents and analyzed using a thematic approach. The research findings revealed that students experience difficulties in understanding abstract science concepts, especially photosynthesis, and tend to rely on memorization rather than conceptual understanding. Existing learning media are still limited, less interactive, and do not optimally facilitate student-centered learning. Quantitative results indicate that most students need digital learning media that are interactive, visual, easily accessible, and able to support the process of independent exploration and discovery. This study provides an empirical basis for designing innovative digital learning media using Google Sites to support the implementation of the Independent Curriculum and improve the quality of elementary science education.

Abstract

This study explores learning strategies employed in Al-Qur'an-Hadith education within Islamic Religious Education (PAI) programs in schools. The research aims to identify instructional approaches used by teachers, examine their implementation in classroom settings, and analyze their contribution to students’ understanding of Qur’anic and Hadith teachings. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through classroom observations, in-depth interviews with teachers and students, and analysis of relevant educational documents. The findings reveal that teachers utilize a combination of lecture, discussion, memorization, contextual learning, collaborative learning, and technology-assisted strategies to facilitate students’ comprehension of religious texts. The integration of active learning methods encourages student participation, critical thinking, and the practical application of Islamic values in daily life. Furthermore, the effectiveness of learning strategies is influenced by teacher competence, learning resources, school support, and students’ learning motivation. The study concludes that diverse and student-centered learning strategies enhance the quality of Al-Qur'an-Hadith instruction by promoting both cognitive understanding and character development. These findings contribute to the development of more effective pedagogical practices in Islamic Religious Education and provide recommendations for improving the teaching and learning of Al-Qur'an-Hadith in contemporary school settings.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the integration of Pancasila values and local wisdom into digital citizenship, identify their application in concrete actions within the digital space, and formulate a value-based conceptual model of digital citizenship relevant to digital dynamics that need to be managed and addressed through digital literacy to foster responsible citizenship in social media use. This study employs a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method by examining 40 scientific articles published between 2016 and 2026, indexed in the Google Scholar and Scopus databases. Data were collected through documentation using Mendeley and systematically analyzed to identify patterns, concepts, and research findings. The results indicate that the integration of Pancasila values and local wisdom plays a strategic role in shaping students’ character in the digital age. Conceptually, Pancasila serves as a normative foundation, while local wisdom provides contextual relevance within the socio-cultural context. Practically, this integration is implemented through an action-oriented citizenship model, encouraging students to actualize these values in their daily digital behaviors. The implications of this study highlight the importance of strengthening value-based digital citizenship to develop responsible, critical, and ethical digital citizens.
