Abstract

This study aims to analyze the hierarchy of meaning in the interpratation of the Qur’an, focusing on the relationship between syar’i meaning (legal/religious), ‘urf meaning (customary), and linguistic meaning in the context of digital literacy. The research method used is a qualitative literature review with a descriptive-analytical approach. Data were collected from primary and secondary sources, including classical and contemporary books as well as acrredited sinta journals. The resultsshow that there is a dynamic hierarchy between these three meanings, where syar’i meaning serves as the primary foundation, while ‘urf and linguistic meanings function as contextl mediators in understanding the text. In the digital era, the interaction between these three meanings faces challenges, such  the spread of literal interpretations that ignore context  and the dominance of popular narratives that are often not based on strong academic foundations. This study concludes that a holistic and contextual approach is eesential in interpreting the Qur’an to maintain the relevance of its teachings amids the rapid flow of digital information

Abstract

This study examines the spiritual healing system of Pondok Tetirah Dzikir in Yogyakarta, which employs the Inabah method and the dhikr practices of the Qadiriyah Naqsyabandiyah Order to address mental disorders. Using a qualitative approach that integrates phenomenology and religious ethnography, the research explores how guided residents (santri bina) undergo a process of existential recovery through structured rituals such as dhikr, Qur’anic recitation, repentance bathing, and other practices of tazkiyatun nafs. Analysed through Mircea Eliade’s framework of the Sacred and the Profane, the findings reveal that the institution constructs a sacred space and time that facilitates a transition from chaotic profane existence towards a spiritually oriented sacred order. The healing process is shown not merely as a psychological improvement but as a profound religious transformation that restores meaning, spiritual awareness, and harmony in the lives of the residents. This study demonstrates that spiritual-based rehabilitation, grounded in Sufi teachings, holds significant potential in addressing mental health crises in contemporary society.

Abstract

This research discusses Muhammad Iqbal’s Islamic educational philosophy and its relevance in the context of modern education. This study is motivated by concerns about the current direction of education, which tends to become trapped in materialistic and instrumental orientations, thereby neglecting the moral and spiritual dimensions of the human being. Using a qualitative approach with a library research method, this study examines Iqbal’s major works such as The Reconstruction of Religious Thought in Islam, Asrar-i-Khudi, and Rumuz-i-BeKhudi, as well as various secondary sources that explore the influence and actualisation of his ideas in the field of education. The findings indicate that Iqbal’s philosophy of education is rooted in the concept of Khudi, namely human self-awareness as a being endowed with creative and spiritual potential to realise divine values in life. According to Iqbal, education must be a process of shaping individuals who are dynamic, independent, and responsible towards themselves and society. He rejects educational models that blunt creativity and focus solely on memorisation, as such approaches distance human beings from their true nature as free and creative beings. In the context of modern education, Iqbal’s ideas are relevant as a foundation for reforming the Islamic education system towards a balance between reason and faith, freedom of thought and moral responsibility, as well as intellectual advancement integrated with spiritual depth. This research emphasises that the actualisation of Iqbal’s thought in modern education can serve as a philosophical basis for developing an educational paradigm that is humanistic, transcendental, and contextual to contemporary challenges. By integrating spiritual values and rationality, Islamic education has the potential to produce individuals who are not only intellectually capable but also possess strong character, faith, and ethical awareness.

Abstract

This article examnes majaz in mutasyabihat verses in the Qur’an. There ara difference between the salaf and khalaf scholars regarding the issue of majaz. According to the salaf scholars, they rejected majaz in the Qur’an and left the meaning of mutasyabih verse to Allah to avoid tasybih or similarity. Meanwhile, the later scholars accepted majaz in the Qur’an so that these verses were not understood literally through interpretation. The research method used in writing this article is a qualitative method with a library approach and uses descriptive analysis of the verses of the Qur’an that contain majaz. The mutasyabihat verses include verses about the attributes of Allah and the muqataa’ah letters. The salaf scholars belived and trusted the mutasyabihat verses and left their true meaning to Allah, so that their meaning would be tanzih ( purification) and not cause tasybih (likening). Meanwhile, later scholars intrted the mutasyabihat verses so that they could be easily understood by the mind and did not cause misunderstanding. The majority of scholars from the firs to third centuries, namely the salaf, interpreted these letters as meaning that only Alah knows. Later, many scholar tried to interpret them as the names of surahs, or as a way for Allah to attract the attention of listeners.

Abstract

This study aims to examine how Islamic educational philosophy is constructed and implemented in strengthening students’ character education in the digital era, as well as to formulate a conceptual model of character development grounded in Islamic values through a case study at MA Al Umm Malang. Addressing contemporary challenges such as ethical disorientation, value fragmentation, and declining self-regulation due to rapid digitalisation, this research employs a qualitative approach with an interpretive case study design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis, and analysed thematically within the framework of Islamic educational philosophy. The findings indicate that character education at MA Al Umm Malang is rooted in a tauhidic, holistic, and adab-oriented philosophy, in which sound Islamic creed, noble character, and moral exemplarity serve as foundational elements. These values are operationalised through an integrated educational system, continuous mentoring, and value internalisation embedded in the 24-hour pesantren environment. Furthermore, this study formulates a conceptual model consisting of five interrelated components: a tauhidic value foundation, a holistic educational system, role modelling, sustained mentoring and evaluation, and epistemic reinforcement as a filter for digital ethics. The study concludes that effective character education in the digital era requires a strong Islamic philosophical foundation and coherent institutional implementation.

Abstract

Contemporary education is increasingly dominated by instrumental rationality that prioritizes cognitive performance, efficiency, and competitiveness, often marginalizing learners’ moral and spiritual development. Within Islamic education, this tendency generates epistemological and ethical challenges manifested in value disorientation, weakened moral integrity, and fragile character formation. This study aims to formulate a conceptual model for the internalization of the spiritual values of Surah Al-Fatihah as the foundation of Islamic character education. Employing a qualitative library-based approach with a conceptual-analytical orientation, the study draws on authoritative classical Qur’anic exegesis as primary sources and contemporary Islamic educational literature as supporting references. Data are analyzed through systematic content analysis encompassing descriptive, interpretative, and applicative-synthetic stages, guided by the double movement approach to ensure contextual relevance while preserving normative substance. The findings reveal that Surah Al-Fatihah embodies a fundamental, hierarchical, and integrative structure of spiritual values, including tawhid, ‘ubudiyyah, rahmah, gratitude, guidance, and eschatological accountability. These values are mapped into three interrelated dimensions of Islamic character education spiritual orientation (ta’alluq billah), moral disposition (akhlaqiyyah), and social responsibility (insaniyyah) and synthesized into a conceptual model linking educational aims, learning content, pedagogical strategies, institutional culture, and character assessment. Overall, the study positions Surah Al-Fatihah as an epistemological and pedagogical foundation for ta’dib-oriented Islamic character education in addressing contemporary moral and spiritual challenges.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the integration of reason and revelation in Islamic educational philosophy as the epistemological foundation of Islamic education. This inquiry is motivated by the tendency of modern education to separate rationality from transcendental values, a condition that potentially leads to moral and spiritual crises. This research employs a qualitative approach using a library research design. The data are derived from primary and secondary sources, including the Qur’an, hadith, as well as classical and contemporary works relevant to Islamic educational philosophy. Data analysis is conducted through descriptive-analytical and interpretative methods. The findings indicate that reason and revelation in Islam maintain an integrative and complementary relationship. Reason functions as a rational instrument for understanding and developing knowledge, while revelation serves as a source of normative truth that guides and regulates the operation of reason. The integration of reason and revelation rejects the dichotomy between religious and secular sciences and affirms that all knowledge ultimately originates from Allah SWT. This study concludes that the integration of reason and revelation constitutes an essential epistemological foundation in Islamic education for the formation of insān kāmil, characterised by a balanced development of intellectual, spiritual, and moral dimensions.

Abstract

Islam Berkemajuan is a distinctive paradigm developed by Muhammadiyah, referring to progressive and civilizational Islam that integrates Islamic normative values with modern societal demands. This study analyzes Islam Berkemajuan within the Al-Islam and Kemuhammadiyahan perspective, examining how Islamic values synthesize with civilizational progress in Muhammadiyah thought. Employing a qualitative library research approach, this study examines authoritative sources including Al-Islam and Kemuhammadiyahan literature, official Risalah Islam Berkemajuan, Muhammadiyah congress documents, and relevant scholarly works. Data were analyzed using descriptive-analytical techniques to identify key concepts and theoretical linkages. Findings reveal that Islam Berkemajuan represents an integrative paradigm uniting theological principles tauhid, justice, and humanity with rationality, scientific development, and social transformation. This synthesis operates through tajdid, functioning as both doctrinal purification and continuous renewal across social, educational, and cultural domains. The study's novelty lies in positioning Islam Berkemajuan explicitly as civilizational synthesis within Al-Islam and Kemuhammadiyahan framework, transcending mere normative rhetoric. The conclusion establishes Islam Berkemajuan as a relevant, dynamic framework for understanding Islam as both ethical guidance and civilizational progress, contributing significantly to Al-Islam and Kemuhammadiyahan studies development.

Abstract

The formation of religious attitudes in elementary school ged children is a foundational aspect of personality development, cultivated through the habituation of regular worship practices within the school environment. This study aims to analyse the effect and the magnitude of the contribution of congregational prayer habits to the religious attitudes of students at SD Muhammadiyah 29 Surabaya. The research employed a quantitative associative causal approach with a population of 50 fifth  and sixth-grade students. Data were collected using closed-ended questionnaires that had been tested for validity and reliability, and subsequently analysed using simple linear regression through SPSS version 26. The results indicate that congregational prayer habits have a positive and significant effect on students’ religious attitudes, with a significance value of 0.000 (< 0.05). The coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.639 shows that congregational prayer habits contribute 63.9% to students’ religious attitudes, while the remaining percentage is influenced by other factors outside the scope of this study. These findings confirm that the consistent implementation of congregational prayer within the school environment is an effective strategy for fostering and strengthening the religious attitudes of elementary school students

Abstract

This study examines QS Al-‘Alaq (1–5) and QS Luqmān (12–19) to formulate the objectives of Islamic education, reinforced by the perspectives of al-Ghazālī, Ibn Sīnā, Ibn Khaldūn, and Ibn Miskawaih. Using library research and thematic analysis of Qur’anic verses, classical works, and recent studies, it identifies epistemological and axiological foundations of Islamic education. QS Al-‘Alaq establishes an epistemological basis through the command iqra’, affirming Allah as the ultimate source of knowledge and encouraging intellectual and literacy development. QS Luqmān provides an axiological framework emphasizing wisdom, moral character, social responsibility, and ethical guidance. Classical scholars further strengthen this integration: al-Ghazālī stresses purification of the soul and unity of knowledge and action; Ibn Sīnā highlights holistic human development; Ibn Khaldūn underscores social formation; and Ibn Miskawaih focuses on moral training. The study concludes that Islamic education must adopt an integrative approach uniting spiritual, intellectual, moral, and social dimensions to form faithful, knowledgeable, and virtuous individuals.
