Abstract

This study sets out to examine the influence of the Living Qur'an on the formation of Generation Z's religious identity, focusing on how these teachings are internalised through social interactions. The main objective of the study was to explore the relationship between religious activities and religious identity among the younger generation. Data were collected through a questionnaire distributed to 203 respondents, consisting of various educational backgrounds. The analytical methods employed included Social Identity Theory, Symbolic Interaction Theory, and Theory of Religious Socialization, which provided an in-depth perspective on the findings. The results indicated that 55.7% of respondents regarded religious activities in madrasahs as having a very strong influence on their daily lives.This study offers novel insights into Islamic studies, underscoring the significance of contextual religious education that fosters active participation. The study's limitations, which include a limited sample size, are discussed, and suggestions for future research are provided, including a broader exploration of social and technological factors in the formation of religious identity in the modern era.

Abstract

Social transformation and technological advancement present significant challenges for madrasah institutions in preserving their Islamic identity and fostering student character development. One strategic approach involves strengthening Islamic culture through effective madrasah leadership and structured developmental programs. This study aims to analyze the role of democratic leadership exercised by madrasah principals in cultivating Islamic culture through the Faith and Piety Program (Program Iman dan Taqwa/IMTAQ) at Madrasah Aliyah Negeri 2 Muaro Jambi, Indonesia. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques including in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis. Informants comprise the madrasah principal, teachers responsible for program activities, and selected students. Data analysis was conducted through stages of reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings demonstrate that democratic leadership enables active participation of teachers and staff in the planning, implementation, and evaluation of the IMTAQ Program. Core activities include dhuha prayer, congregational dzuhur prayer, recitation of Surah Yasin, religious talks (kultum), and memorization of prayers and short verses, which consistently foster worship discipline and student religiosity. Supporting factors encompass collaboration among all madrasah community members and the availability of worship facilities, while primary obstacles include time constraints and diverse religious backgrounds among students. These findings reinforce the theoretical framework that democratic leadership plays a strategic role in shaping school culture based on Islamic values. Research implications include the necessity of integrating similar programs into national education policy to strengthen Islamic character education, serving as a practical leadership model for other Islamic educational institutions.

Abstract

Abstract: This study explores the impact of Islamic character education implementation on students’ mental health through a structural equation modeling (SEM) approach. By analyzing meta-data from 38 studies involving a total of 12,467 respondents, the results reveal a significant correlation between Islamic character education and mental health (r = 0.72, p < 0.001). Furthermore, structural model analysis indicates that Islamic character education has a direct effect on mental health (β = 0.58, p < 0.001) and an indirect effect through emotion regulation (β = 0.32, p < 0.01), yielding a total effect of 0.67. Additionally, invariance testing confirms that the model remains consistent across different age groups and genders (CFI = 0.94, RMSEA = 0.048). The SEM results validate the theoretical model’s fit (χ² = 312.45, df = 145, p < 0.001; GFI = 0.93; NFI = 0.92; TLI = 0.95). These findings extend the studies of Naqiyah (2022) and Khodijah et al. (2024), which previously only highlighted direct relationships without considering mediation variables. Furthermore, unlike the study by Yahaya et al. (2012), which found a moderate effect (β = 0.41), this research uncovers a more substantial and comprehensive impact by identifying emotion regulation as a key mediator. Lastly, the findings emphasize that integrating Islamic values into character education plays a crucial role in enhancing students’ mental health and provides new insights for developing Islamic values-based educational strategies.

Abstract

Learning outcomes among students in Islamic Religious Education (IRE) and Character Education at Junior High School Students at State Junior High School (SMPN) 7 Jambi City remain suboptimal, with the majority of students failing to achieve the Minimum Mastery Criteria (MMC). This condition indicates the necessity for innovative pedagogical models that can enhance students’ active engagement and foster profound conceptual understanding. This study aims to analyze the implementation of the discovery learning model in IRE and Character Education instruction and its impact on improving student learning outcomes. The research employed a Classroom Action Research (CAR) design conducted over two cycles with ninth-grade students at SMPN 7 Jambi City, involving 32 participants. Each cycle encompassed planning, implementation, observation, and reflection phases. Data were collected through teacher and student observation sheets, learning outcome assessments, and documentation, subsequently analyzed descriptively using percentages and mean scores. The findings demonstrate enhanced teacher and student activities, progressing from “good” in Cycle I to “excellent” in Cycle II, accompanied by an increased percentage of students achieving MMC. These findings indicate that the implementation of discovery learning contributes positively to enhancing student engagement and learning outcomes in IRE and Character Education subjects. The contribution of this research lies in providing empirical evidence regarding the effectiveness of discovery learning within the context of religious education in secondary schools, which can serve as a reference for teachers, curriculum developers, and policymakers in designing more interactive and student-centered learning strategies.

Abstract

Increasing competition among junior high schools necessitates that principals employ innovative strategies to establish a positive brand image State Junior High School 35 in Tebo Regency faces persistent challenges, including declining new student enrollment over the past three years, limited facilities and infrastructure, and a less strategic location. This study analyzes the principal’s innovative leadership in enhancing brand image, examines supporting and inhibiting factors, and evaluates innovation effectiveness. Using a qualitative descriptive method, data were gathered through observation, interviews with the principal, vice principals, and teachers, and document analysis, followed by thematic analysis to identify innovation patterns and influencing factors. Findings indicate that innovations include improving academic and non-academic achievements, upgrading facilities and infrastructure, implementing a Green School program, promoting active–creative–enjoyable learning, integrating educational technology, digitalizing school promotion, and fostering alumni development to secure admission to prestigious higher-level schools. These initiatives have positively influenced the school’s image but remain constrained by budget limitations, inadequate internet connectivity, and modest student numbers. Supporting factors comprise the principal’s commitment and active participation from the school community, while obstacles involve limited resources, suboptimal facilities, and location disadvantages. Overall, innovative leadership strengthens brand image but has not fully reversed declining enrollment. The study recommends enhanced local government support through improved infrastructure, expanded digital promotion, and leadership innovation training for schools in rural or remote areas. This innovation model offers a practical framework for other schools confronting similar contextual constraints in building a competitive brand image.
