Abstract

The purpose of this study was to analyze the institution of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) in Islamic religious universities (PTKI), identify the actual challenges faced, and explore learning strategies that are relevant to the needs of students. Normatively, PAI in PTKI has a strategic position in strengthening the religious character of students and the development of integration of Science and religion. However, there is a gap between the ideality of institutional vision and implementation at the learning level, especially in the face of globalization, academic secularism, and the tendency of religious exclusivism. This study uses a qualitative approach to the type of library studies (library research), utilizing secondary data in the form of Pai institutional documents at PTKI, previous research, and the latest academic literature. Data mining techniques are carried out through the study of documents, while data analysis uses in-depth analytical descriptive methods. The results showed that Pai institutions in PTKI faced epistemological stagnation and methodological rigidity. Effective learning strategies include contextual, integrative, dialogical, and moderate approaches that emphasize Islamic literacy towards contemporary social reality. This finding confirms the importance of institutional revitalization and pedagogical innovation simultaneously so that PAI learning can be an instrument for the formation of religious, inclusive, and national character academic personnel.

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to examine the impact of Islamic education on students' spiritual well-being and academic performance. This study seeks to understand how the values, teachings, and practices embedded in Islamic education contribute not only to students’ spiritual growth but also to their overall academic achievement. Using a mixed-method approach, the research combines quantitative data collected through surveys and academic records with qualitative insights from interviews and observations. The findings reveal that Islamic education significantly enhances students' spiritual well-being by fostering values such as sincerity, discipline, and responsibility. Moreover, these spiritual dimensions positively correlate with improved academic performance, particularly in areas such as motivation, self-regulation, and perseverance in learning. The results also indicate that students who actively engage in Islamic learning activities tend to demonstrate stronger moral character and academic resilience. This study highlights the essential role of Islamic education in shaping holistic student development, integrating spiritual maturity with intellectual excellence. Keywords: Islamic education, spiritual well-being, academic performance, students, holistic development

Abstract

This article explores the integration of Islamic values into public administration studies in Indonesia, highlighting the role of Islamic principles in shaping ethical and effective governance. With over 260 million people and a rich Islamic heritage, Indonesia presents a unique context for the development of public administration that harmonizes both religious and secular principles. The article reviews theoretical foundations, such as the concepts of Amanah (trust), Adil (justice), and Maslahah (public welfare), that are central to Islamic governance. It also examines how Islamic higher education institutions in Indonesia, particularly through the transformation from Islamic Institutes (IAIN) to State Islamic Universities (UIN), are integrating public administration into their curricula. The shift in educational structures aligns with national policy initiatives like Merdeka Belajar (Independent Learning), enabling students to gain practical governance experience. Despite progress, challenges such as outdated curricula and insufficient faculty training remain. The article discusses these challenges while emphasizing the potential for Islamic values to inform public administration, offering a model for other Muslim-majority countries in balancing religious principles with modern governance.

Abstract

This study examines the evolution and current challenges of Islamic education policy in Indonesia through qualitative document analysis, a PRISMA guided systematic review, and bibliometric mapping. Legal and regulatory texts, including Law No. 20 of 2003 (SISDIKNAS) and Ministry of Religious Affairs reports, were analyzed using the READ framework to trace thematic shifts. The review targeted 2021-2025 peer-reviewed literature on curriculum, financing, governance, and educator professionalism, with screening per PRISMA. Bibliometrics identified influential works and collaboration patterns. Findings show a shift from centralized control to decentralized, locally adaptive policy. Innovations include integrated curricula, sharia-compliant financing, and strengthened teacher development, yet disparities in administrative capacity and resource allocation persist, yielding uneven quality assurance. The study argues that harmonizing national standards with regional contexts, enhancing inter-ministerial coordination, and embedding maqasid al-Shariah principles are pivotal for equity and accountability. Future research should evaluate digital governance and financing models for scalability and sustained impact. Keywords: Islamic education policy, Qualitative document analysis, PRISMA, Bibliometrics, Curriculum

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the meaning of ṣabr in the Qur’an through a semantic approach and exegetical studies, as well as to identify its implications for the development of patience as a character trait in Islamic education. The research method employed is library research with qualitative analysis, utilizing classical and contemporary tafsir sources such as Tafsir al-Ṭabarī, Tafsir al-Qurṭubī, and Tafsir al-Mishbāḥ. Semantic analysis of the root ṣ-b-r and its derivations across various verses reveals that ṣabr encompasses steadfastness, self-control, perseverance in trials, and consistency in righteousness. The findings show that ṣabr in the Qur’an has three main dimensions: patience in obedience, patience in avoiding sins, and patience in facing hardships. The implications for Islamic education include integrating patience values into the curriculum, habituating patient behavior through teacher role models, and fostering character through experiential learning. This study emphasizes that developing patience should not only be cognitive but must also address the affective and psychomotor aspects of learners.

Abstract

This study analyzes the integration of custom (adat) and Islamic law (sharia) in Islamic education through the philosophical perspective of Adat Basandi Syara’, Syara’ Basandi Kitabullah (ABS-SBK) in Minangkabau. It examines the construction of ABS-SBK as the ontological, epistemological, and axiological foundation of Islamic education and its relevance to contemporary educational challenges. Using a qualitative library-research design with a systematic review procedure, the study draws on documented classical sources (tambo and petatah-petitih) and peer-reviewed publications from the last decade, screened through explicit inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data were analyzed through reduction, thematic categorization, and critical-hermeneutic interpretation, with source triangulation to ensure credibility. The findings show that ABS-SBK is an integrative paradigm harmonizing cultural values and Islamic principles into a holistic educational system, historically embodied in the surau. In modern education, however, its implementation faces secularization, fragmentation of knowledge, and the marginalization of local values in formal curricula. The study proposes a reconstruction model linking philosophical grounding, contextual curriculum, and the synergy of ninik mamak, alim ulama, and cadiak pandai. Its contribution lies in systematizing ABS-SBK into an explicit ontological-epistemological-axiological framework for value-based, contextual Islamic education.

Abstract

Education plays a vital role in improving quality of life and societal progress, with teachers serving as educators, motivators, and facilitators. This study aims to analyze the effect of work motivation and emotional intelligence on teacher performance at MTsS MILBoS. A quantitative approach with an ex-post facto design was applied to 32 teachers selected through the Slovin formula and simple random sampling. Data were collected using Likert-scale questionnaires and analyzed through multiple linear regression with SPSS, preceded by validity, reliability, and classical-assumption tests. The results show that, in separate simple regressions, work motivation accounted for 31.1% and emotional intelligence for 68.3% of the variance in teacher performance; in the combined multiple regression model, both variables simultaneously explained 74.5% (F = 42.458; p < 0.05), while the remaining 25.5% was attributable to other factors. Both variables exerted a positive and significant partial effect, with emotional intelligence the stronger predictor. The study concludes that strengthening work motivation and emotional intelligence improves teacher performance; institutions are therefore advised to provide rewards, training, and a conducive work environment. Future research may incorporate additional variables for broader explanatory power.

Abstract

This study aims to examine three issues: (1) the contribution of pesantren and their graduates to the formation of the middle class in Indonesia; (2) the strategies pesantren employ to reproduce the middle class; and (3) the challenges they face in this process. The study uses a qualitative approach with a naturalistic method and a case-study design at two pesantren in Cirebon, namely Pondok Pesantren Wirausaha Kebon Cinta and Pondok Pesantren Bina Insan Mulia. Data were collected through guided open interviews, observation, and document review, then analyzed descriptively using triangulation. The findings show that the two pesantren reproduce the middle class through different yet complementary pathways: Kebon Cinta emphasizes practical entrepreneurship education (business management, marketing, and student bazaars), whereas Bina Insan Mulia emphasizes leadership, English proficiency, and further study at domestic and overseas universities. The main strategies include curriculum modernization, strengthening the pesantren economy, the use of technology, and alumni networking. The principal challenges include gaps in educational and economic access, social stigma, weak links to industry, and limited capital. The study concludes that pesantren can be effective instruments of social mobility when supported by the strengthening of students’ economic, cultural, and social capital

Abstract

This conceptual study examines the relevance of M. Umer Chapra's environmentally grounded Islamic economic thought to the aims and practices of Islamic education. It departs from the global environmental crisis, which is not merely ecological but also moral, social, and spiritual, and from the limited capacity of value-free education to cultivate ecological responsibility among learners. Employing a qualitative library research design with a descriptive-critical content analysis of Chapra's works and supporting literature on maqasid al-shariah, fiqh al-bi'ah, and Islamic education, the study reconstructs Chapra's principles of justice, maslahah, khilafah, and holistic well-being (falah) into an educational framework. The findings indicate that Chapra's paradigm can enrich the objectives of Islamic education by positioning the learner as a khalifah responsible for preserving the environment (hifz al-bi'ah), and can be integrated into curriculum content, learning materials, character education, and the pedagogical culture of madrasah and pesantren. The study concludes that reconstructing Chapra's environmentally oriented Islamic economics as an educational value system offers a meaningful basis for nurturing ecologically conscious, just, and responsible Muslim learners in line with the objectives of twenty-first-century Islamic education.

Abstract

This study analyzes the role of teachers' digital literacy in supporting the National Assessment and deep learning at TMI Al-Amien Prenduan, an Islamic boarding school (pesantren) that restricts the use of electronic devices in the classroom. A descriptive qualitative approach with a case study design was employed. Data were collected through semi-structured in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis involving teachers, institutional leaders, and the Quality Assurance Agency responsible for educational quality management. Informants were selected purposively, and data were analyzed through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, while validity was ensured through source and technique triangulation. The findings reveal that teachers' digital literacy contributes most strongly during the lesson-preparation phase, when teachers use digital resources to enrich materials, master multiple references, and design effective teaching strategies. Digital literacy also supports deep learning by enabling teachers to present content in meaningful and contextual ways, and it strengthens institutional readiness for the National Assessment, particularly the Learning Environment Survey. The study concludes that in pesantren, digital literacy functions strategically as an indirect, behind-the-scenes support mechanism for learning and quality assurance without requiring intensive classroom technology use.
