Abstract

Formative assessment is one of the assessment types in the Merdeka Curriculum that plays an important role in continuously monitoring students’ learning progress. It is considered more effective as it provides feedback that can be used to improve the learning process. This study aims to identify the challenges faced by teachers in implementing formative assessment within the Merdeka Curriculum and to examine possible solutions to enhance its effectiveness. This research employs a library research method, drawing on relevant sources such as books, journal articles, and academic documents related to formative assessment and its implementation challenges. The findings reveal that teachers still face several obstacles, including limited understanding of the concept, difficulties in selecting appropriate assessment techniques, high administrative workload, low digital literacy, and inadequate facilities and infrastructure. Efforts to address these challenges include improving teacher competence, providing adequate facilities, and strengthening collaboration among schools, parents, communities, and the government, so that formative assessment can be implemented effectively and optimally to improve the quality of learning.

Abstract

This study aims to map and analyze research trends on digital transformation and conflict management in Indonesian Islamic educational institutions in the context of the Society 5.0 era using a bibliometric review approach. Data from Scopus-indexed documents were analyzed using co-citation and bibliographic coupling techniques through VOSviewer to map the intellectual structure and research trends of digital transformation in Islamic education. The research methodology followed the PRISMA 2020 protocol by analyzing publications from Scopus and SINTA databases, with bibliometric visualization performed using VOSviewer 1.6.20 software and Biblioshiny. The results showed that Indonesia is the dominant contributor with 323 publications (65.4%), followed by Malaysia, with publication output increasing significantly since 2020, correlating with the global COVID-19 pandemic. The findings identified seven main thematic clusters encompassing the urban-rural digital divide, convergence of pedagogical and technological frameworks, and the critical roles of leadership, self-efficacy, and educational resilience. Additionally, a "Hybrid Resilience" paradigm emerged, where Pesantren and Madrasah integrate moderate theology (Wasathiyah), revitalization of local wisdom-based social capital, and adoption of global values such as Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The research results indicate that conflict management is crucial in Islamic educational institutions, where conflict is unavoidable and conflict control is essential to achieve institutional goals. The study also reveals growing integration of Artificial Intelligence tools, including ChatGPT and digital Al-Quran applications, which enhance student learning motivation and critical thinking. The implications of this research provide strategic guidance for policymakers, educators, and researchers in formulating an inclusive and effective digital future for Islamic education globally.

Abstract

Social change, digital transformation, and evolving labour market demands require Islamic education to cultivate religious, adaptive, critical, and socially engaged students. This study explores how the values of Risalah Islam Berkemajuan are internalised in vocational education at SMK Muhammadiyah Tanjung Selor. Using a qualitative case study design, data were collected through semi-structured interviews and document analysis. Hybrid thematic analysis combined inductive interpretation of participants’ experiences with deductive analysis based on the framework of Risalah Islam Berkemajuan. The findings reveal five patterns: adaptive religious learning rooted in the Qur’an and Sunnah; tauhid as the foundation of character formation; learning innovation, critical thinking, and a culture of knowledge; integration of religion and knowledge through social and environmental responsibility; and student participation in socio-religious life. These values are internalised through faith, pedagogical innovation, knowledge development, and social practice.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the historical dynamics of Islamic civilization in the formation of political institutions, the construction of power, and the development of the broader Islamic world. It is motivated by the academic need to understand Islamic politics not merely as a normative system or as a debate over state forms, but as a historical process that continuously changed in response to the social, cultural, economic, and geopolitical contexts of Muslim societies. This research employs a qualitative approach through library research. The data were obtained from primary and secondary sources related to Islamic civilization, Islamic political thought, the caliphate, imamate, sultanate, political legitimacy, bureaucracy, and the role of political institutions in advancing Islamic knowledge and culture. The data were analyzed using a historical-conceptual approach involving data condensation, thematic categorization, interpretation, and conceptual synthesis. The findings show that Islamic political institutions developed through four major patterns: normative-prophetic, institutional-administrative, dynastic-territorial, and civilizational-pluralistic. These patterns demonstrate that power in Islamic history was not based solely on religious legitimacy, but also on the ability to build political stability, administrative structures, legal systems, economic networks, military organization, and socio-intellectual relations. The study concludes that Islamic civilization was formed through a dialectical relationship between values, institutions, power, and civilizational production. Its main contribution lies in proposing a historical-institutional framework for understanding Islamic political history in a more critical, integrative, and contextual way.

Abstract

This study investigates the effects of congregational prayer intensity and moral values reinforcement on students' emotional maturity in Islamic secondary education. It addresses limited empirical evidence concerning the simultaneous contribution of religious habituation and moral education to adolescents' socio-emotional development. A quantitative survey design was employed involving 100 students of SMA Muhammadiyah Batam during the 2025/2026 academic year. Data were collected using a structured five-point Likert scale questionnaire measuring congregational prayer intensity, moral values reinforcement, and emotional maturity. Instrument validity and reliability were assessed using Pearson Product-Moment correlation and Cronbach's Alpha. Data analysis included descriptive statistics, classical assumption tests, and multiple linear regression using IBM SPSS Statistics version 26. The findings reveal that congregational prayer intensity has a significant positive effect on students' emotional maturity. Moral values reinforcement also demonstrates a significant positive effect and emerges as the strongest predictor. Simultaneously, both variables significantly influence emotional maturity, with an Adjusted R² of 0.587, indicating that 58.7% of its variance is explained by the model. These findings demonstrate that religious habituation and moral education function as complementary strategies for strengthening emotional regulation, responsibility, empathy, and social competence, supporting a holistic approach to students' socio-emotional development in Islamic education.

Abstract

This study aims to analyse the legal status of cryptocurrency and other digital assets from the perspective of contemporary Islamic law, focusing on a comparative reading of the four Sunni schools of jurisprudence (Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi'i, and Hanbali) on the status of crypto as both a currency and an investment instrument. The research uses a qualitative library-research (kepustakaan) method with a descriptive-analytical approach. Primary data were drawn from classical and contemporary fiqh literature of the four madhhabs together with official fatwas of Islamic financial authorities, while secondary data were obtained from internationally indexed journal and reports of Islamic financial institutions. Data were analysed through content analysis and cross-madhhab comparison using the frameworks of usul al-fiqh and maqasid al-shari'ah. The findings show that scholarly opinion on cryptocurrency is far from uniform: some scholars regard it as unlawful (haram) owing to the absence of an underlying asset, high volatility, and the potential for speculation (gharar), while others permit it under specific conditions such as transparency, regulation, and conformity with Shariah principles. The study concludes that a purely binary (halal-haram) approach is inadequate; a contextual, collaborative framework involving scholars, regulators, and Islamic-economy practitioners is needed to govern the responsible development of digital assets.

Abstract

Religiosity has a significant role in shaping social relationships, collective solidarity, and community resilience. However, studies on religiosity have predominantly focused on individual beliefs and religious practices, while its function as social capital in strengthening social cohesion within Muslim Communities in Pesisir remains underexplored. This study aims to analyze how religiosity functions as social capital in strengthening social cohesion among Muslim Communities in Pesisirin Probolinggo City, Indonesia. Employing a qualitative approach with a case study design, this research collected data through observations, semi-structured interviews, and documentation involving 20 participants consisting of in Pesisircommunity members, religious leaders, and local government representatives. Data were analyzed using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña, supported by thematic analysis to identify patterns related to religiosity, social capital, and social cohesion. The findings reveal that religiosity operates as social capital through three main mechanisms: the internalization of Islamic values, the development of religious-based social networks, and the strengthening of community solidarity. Islamic values such as ukhuwah (brotherhood), ta’awun (mutual assistance), and social care function as collective norms that encourage trust, cooperation, and mutual support. Religious institutions, particularly mosques and religious groups, serve as social spaces for interaction, problem-solving, and community empowerment. This study contributes to Islamic Studies by demonstrating that religiosity is not merely a spiritual dimension but also a transformative social resource that strengthens community cohesion and resilience in in Pesisirsocieties.

Abstract

Islamic philanthropy has significant potential to contribute to poverty alleviation, yet its effectiveness depends not only on the volume of charitable funds collected but also on the quality of institutional governance, accountability, and beneficiary empowerment. This study examines how Islamic philanthropy governance operates to support poverty alleviation in Probolinggo, Indonesia, with particular attention to the mechanisms linking Islamic values, institutional management, and community empowerment. The study employed a qualitative approach using an interpretive case study design. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, field observations, and supporting questionnaires involving beneficiaries, philanthropic institution managers, religious leaders, and community representatives selected purposively. The data were analysed using thematic analysis through familiarisation, coding, theme development, review, and interpretation, while credibility was strengthened through source and methodological triangulation and member checking. The findings identified four interrelated dimensions of Islamic philanthropy governance: institutional accountability and transparency, Shariah-based governance, participatory distribution mechanisms, and empowerment-oriented philanthropic transformation. Accountability and transparency strengthened institutional legitimacy and public trust, while Shariah principles such as amanah, ‘adl, and maslahah provided ethical foundations for fund management and beneficiary selection. Participatory governance further positioned beneficiaries as active actors rather than passive recipients, encouraging a transition from consumptive assistance toward productive empowerment. The study concludes that effective Islamic philanthropy requires an integrated governance model combining Shariah legitimacy, professional management, stakeholder collaboration, and sustainable empowerment. Such integration enables zakat, infak, and sedekah to function not merely as charitable instruments but as locally grounded mechanisms of social development and sustainable poverty alleviation.

Abstract

Alcoholic beverage control represents a complex legal issue as it involves the intersection of religious values, social interests, and state regulatory mechanisms. In Muslim societies, Islamic law plays an important role in shaping the orientation of public policy, while local legislation serves as a formal instrument for regulating social behaviour through the authority of local governments. This study aims to analyse how Islamic legal principles are harmonised with the framework of local legislation in the formulation and regulation of alcoholic beverage control policies in Probolinggo City, as well as to examine the legal, institutional, and social factors influencing its implementation. This study employs a qualitative approach using a library research method through an analysis of Probolinggo City Regional Regulation Number 3 of 2015, Islamic legal literature, related regulations, and relevant academic studies. The data were analysed using content analysis and thematic analysis to identify patterns of interaction between Islamic legal values and the construction of local positive law. The findings reveal that the harmonisation of Islamic law and local legislation does not occur through the direct formalisation of religious norms, but rather through the transformation of Islamic values into principles of public benefit (maṣlaḥah), social protection, and the prevention of harm (dar’u al-mafāsid). The implementation of this harmonisation is influenced by the consistency of legal norms, institutional capacity, and social acceptance within the community. This study contributes to the development of contemporary Islamic legal studies by demonstrating that the integration of religious values into public policy can be achieved through a substantive harmonisation model that remains consistent with the principles of a constitutional state.

Abstract

Digital transformation has reshaped Muslim religious life by changing how religious knowledge, authority, identity, and practice are produced and negotiated. This study examines how Digital Islam constructs hybrid religious authority among Muslims in Probolinggo, Indonesia, where traditional Islamic institutions coexist with expanding digital media use. Using a qualitative exploratory case study design, the research involved 15–20 purposively selected participants, including religious leaders, community figures, and active digital media users. Data were collected through participant observation and semi-structured interviews and analysed using the Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña interactive model with thematic coding supported by NVivo 14. The findings show that digitalisation does not replace traditional religious authority but produces a hybrid configuration through interaction between ulama, kiai, pesantren, digital platforms, and Muslim communities. Religious legitimacy is increasingly shaped by scholarly credibility, social trust, communication skills, digital visibility, and audience participation. Digital media also influence Muslim identity formation and religious practice while creating challenges concerning credibility and authenticity. This study concludes that Digital Islam in Probolinggo reflects negotiation, adaptation, and coexistence between offline and online authority. The study contributes to Digital Religion scholarship by proposing hybrid religious authority as a framework for understanding religious transformation in non-metropolitan Muslim societies.
