Abstract

and developmental outcomes, yet limited research has examined its spiritual dimension within Islamic parenting. This study investigates the role of paternal spiritual leadership in shaping children’s emotional security, focusing on how fathers’ religious modeling, daily routines, and emotional communication influence children’s psychological well-being. Using a qualitative phenomenological design, data were collected through semi-structured interviews, non-participant observations, and documentation from Muslim families characterized by varying levels of paternal engagement. Thematic analysis revealed four core dimensions of father involvement: spiritual modeling, emotional communication, religious routines, and father–child bonding. Results indicate that consistent paternal spiritual leadership is strongly associated with high emotional security, reflected in children’s trust, emotional expression, identity clarity, and stress regulation. In contrast, inconsistent or minimal father involvement contributed to moderate or low emotional security, often characterized by anxiety or identity instability. The study concludes that spiritual leadership functions as both an emotional anchor and moral compass in Islamic parenting, reinforcing children’s resilience and socio-emotional stability. These findings highlight the need for father-focused interventions that integrate emotional responsiveness and spiritual guidance to strengthen family well-being.

Abstract

Adolescent mental health challenges continue to rise globally, requiring culturally grounded preventive interventions, especially in Muslim-majority educational contexts. Islamic values are deeply embedded in students’ daily lives, yet school counseling programs often lack structured religious integration. This study aims to identify Islamic psychological constructs relevant to preventive counseling, examine their implementation in school settings, and analyze their impact on students’ emotional and behavioral adjustment. Using a qualitative descriptive design, data were collected through semi-structured interviews, non-participant observations of counseling sessions, and document analysis involving school counselors, Islamic education teachers, and administrators selected through purposive sampling. Thematic analysis revealed that core Islamic constructs—such as sabr, shukr, tawakkul, muhasabah, and akhlaq—were consistently integrated into counseling practices through value-based psychoeducation, spiritually guided emotional regulation training, family–school collaboration, and peer-support circles rooted in Islamic ethics. These interventions significantly improved students’ emotional regulation, reduced behavioral conflicts, and increased help-seeking behavior. Stakeholders expressed strong support for the culturally aligned model but emphasized the need for structured guidelines and counselor training. The study concludes that integrating Islamic values strengthens the preventive function of school counseling and enhances its cultural relevance, offering practical implications for policy development, counselor preparation, and holistic student well-being.

Abstract

This research examines how Muslim adolescents cope with academic stress through the mediating role of Tawakkal (effortful trust in Allah) and parental religious socialization. Using a qualitative multiple case-research design, data were collected from 15 Muslim adolescents, 10 parents, and 5 school informants in Indonesia through semi-structured interviews, observations, and documents. The results show that adolescents experience academic stress as an educational and moral–spiritual burden arising from heavy workloads, high-stakes examinations, dual religious–general curricula, and strong parental aspirations. Tawakkal functions as a key coping resource: when understood as “maximum effort followed by trust in Allah,” it supports cognitive reappraisal, emotional regulation, and more hopeful interpretations of success and failure. Cross-case analysis reveals three coping profiles anchored, ambivalent, and fragile Tawakkal shaped by the quality of parental religious socialization, particularly the balance between supportive and controlling religious messages. The research concludes that Tawakkal is a psychologically meaningful construct that mediates between family-based religious guidance and adolescents.

Abstract

Early marriage remains a critical global concern, with approximately 12 million girls married annually before age 18, particularly affecting Muslim-majority communities where cultural norms intersect with religious interpretations. Despite international commitments under SDG 5.3, limited culturally grounded interventions exist that address both spiritual dimensions and family decision-making structures central to Muslim societies. This study aimed to develop and evaluate a family-based Islamic counseling model as a culturally resonant intervention to prevent early marriage among Muslim adolescents, specifically examining its effectiveness in transforming family perceptions, parent-child communication patterns, and religious value interpretations. Using a qualitative descriptive design, this research was conducted in two rural and two semi-urban Muslim communities in Central Java, Indonesia, involving 45 participants (15 families, 15 adolescents aged 13-19, 10 community counselors, and 5 religious leaders) over six months (January-June 2024). Data were collected through in-depth interviews, non-participant observations of counseling sessions, and document analysis, then analyzed using Braun and Clarke's thematic analysis framework. Results revealed that Islamic counseling effectively reshaped families' understanding of marriage readiness by clarifying Islamic concepts of rushd (maturity), maslahah (welfare), and ridha (consent). Parent-child communication improved significantly through empathetic dialogue, and families demonstrated more cautious decision-making grounded in holistic Islamic principles rather than cultural assumptions. The intervention model achieved strong community acceptance when integrated into existing religious institutions. This study contributes a replicable, faith-sensitive counseling framework that aligns with both Islamic ethics and developmental psychology, offering practical strategies for policymakers, religious leaders, and educators to strengthen adolescent protection in Muslim-majority contexts.

Abstract

The rapid growth of social media has intensified parent–teen conflict in many Muslim families, particularly concerning online friendships, privacy, and moral risks. While existing digital parenting frameworks address behavioral concerns, they often overlook the cultural and religious dimensions that shape family dynamics in Islamic contexts. This study aims to explore how Islamic counseling principles can be integrated to manage and reduce parent–teen conflict related to social media use. Using a qualitative phenomenological design, data were collected from ten Muslim parent–teen dyads through semi-structured interviews, observations, and document analysis, followed by thematic analysis. The findings indicate that conflict is driven by contrasting interpretations of digital autonomy, moral expectations, and online peer interactions. Adolescents view social media as an essential space for identity exploration, while parents perceive it as a potential moral threat. Islamic counseling was found to facilitate conflict resolution by providing a shared moral language, improving emotional communication, and fostering trust-based negotiation. The study concludes that integrating Islamic values—such as adab, amanah, and shura—with evidence-based counseling practices offers a culturally grounded framework for improving family harmony and guiding digital behavior. These insights have significant implications for counselors, educators, and policymakers in Muslim communities.
