Abstract

The increasing severity of global environmental crises demands educational responses that are not only technical but also value-based and transformative. Islamic educational institutions, particularly pesantren, possess strong moral and spiritual resources to cultivate ecological awareness, yet empirical studies examining eco-pedagogy within pesantren leadership remain limited. This study explores the transformation of Islamic education through eco-pedagogy under the strategic leadership of the kiai at Pesantren Ra’iyatul Husnan Wringin Bondowoso. Eco-pedagogy in this study is understood as an educational praxis integrating critical consciousness, ethical responsibility, and environmental stewardship rooted in Freirean pedagogy and Islamic values. Employing a qualitative case study design, data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis involving the kiai, pesantren administrators, teachers, and students during November-December 2025. Data were analyzed using an interactive model supported by triangulation and member checking. The findings reveal that eco-pedagogical transformation occurs through three interconnected stages: strategic formulation of an ecological vision by the kiai, participatory implementation through curriculum integration and daily practices, and institutionalization via habituation, exemplary leadership, and institutional regulations. This process fosters ecological awareness, emotional attachment, learning motivation, and a strong institutional identity as an environmentally friendly pesantren. The novelty of this study lies in integrating Freirean eco-pedagogy with the strategic and spiritual leadership of the kiai, demonstrating how Islamic education can become contextual, transformative, and sustainable through value-based leadership.

Abstract

This study begins with the reality that pesantren as traditional Islamic educational institutions often maintain patriarchal structures that place women in subordinate positions. The research addresses three main questions. First, how does women’s subordination appear within the patriarchal system of the pesantren? Second, what negotiation strategies do women use to gain space and authority? Third, how do Islamic pesantren women produce authority within patriarchal domination? The study uses a qualitative approach with a multi-site case study method. Data were collected through structured interviews, participant observation, and document analysis in several pesantren. The results show, first, that women’s subordination appears in four forms: structural, normative, cultural, and linguistic. Second, women negotiate these conditions through subtle, ethical, and adaptive strategies. Third, women build their authority through everyday ethical practices, which gradually become cultural and symbolic capital. This process helps them gain cultural recognition that eventually leads to formal acknowledgment. These findings contribute to gender studies in Islamic education by highlighting the active role of pesantren women in challenging and reshaping unequal power relations.

Abstract

Islamic boarding schools shape students' character through intensive education, exemplary leadership (uswah hasanah), religious practices, and comprehensive moral development. This study analyzes the moral education models in two types of Pesantrens, encompassing guidance systems, implementation factors, and the internalisation of spiritual values. Employing a qualitative ethnographic approach, data were gathered through interviews, observations, and documentation. The analysis followed the stages of data condensation, display, and conclusion drawing, with validity ensured through triangulation. The findings reveal that: (1) The moral education model instills adab (etiquette), piety, and responsibility through worship, spiritual guidance, and social habituation grounded in the Quran and Hadith. (2) The educational process—comprising ritual worship, Quranic memorization, classical text (Kitab Kuning) studies, and methods such as exemplary behavior, counseling, and dialogue—plays a pivotal role in fostering discipline and deepening spiritual understanding. (3) The outcomes demonstrate significant positive behavioral shifts, including enhanced politeness, spiritual awareness, independence, and empathy. (4) Implementation is supported by routine worship and a conducive environment, though challenged by educator coordination gaps and external cultural influences via technology. (5) Comparative analysis indicates that while traditional (Salafiyah) Pesantrens focus heavily on adab and classical texts, modern Pesantrens integrate moral values systematically into the broader curriculum. Both models effectively cultivate religious character through discipline, respect, and social concern.

Abstract

This study analyzes the concept, implementation, and spiritual impact of Sufism pedagogy in shaping inclusive and moderate character among students at the Bahruddin Islamic Boarding School. Employing a qualitative approach with a case study design, data were collected through observation, interviews, and document analysis to address three research questions concerning the conceptual framework, implementation model, and educational outcomes. The findings reveal, first, that the concept is realized through the integration of Sufi moral principles with spiritual practices such as dhikr and muhasabah, transmitted through direct guidance (talaqqi) and the exemplary role modeling (uswah) of the kyai. Second, the model is implemented through a hidden curriculum that instills values of mahabbah (love), tasamuh (tolerance), and tawazun (balance) in daily life, reinforced through dialogue and cross-group social activities. Third, this implementation significantly contributes to the development of more inclusive religious attitudes among students, characterized by appreciation of diversity and commitment to the middle path (wasatiyyah), as reflected in their rejection of extremism. The study concludes that Sufism education based on spiritual pedagogy constitutes an effective holistic model for instilling inclusive and moderate character, offering a relevant framework for strengthening religious moderation in Islamic educational environments.

Abstract

This study addresses the critical role of schools in early-stage prevention of youth radicalization, focusing on the underexplored domain of everyday pedagogical practices within Islamic Religious Education (IRE). It positions IRE teachers as key soft-prevention agents whose daily interactions and theological interpretations can build micro-level resilience among students. Employing a phenomenological approach, this research is based on fieldwork involving 26 IRE teachers in Banyuwangi, Indonesia, utilizing semi-structured interviews, classroom observations, and document analysis. The findings identify four core pedagogical strategies that constitute preventive practices: contextualizing sacred texts, character-focused instruction, modeling inclusive behavior, and engaging with the wider community. While these strategies generate significant resilience mechanisms capable of interrupting early radicalization pathways, their effectiveness is moderated by structural constraints, including limited professional development, inequitable access to certification, and ideological contradictions within schools and communities. By integrating the Islamic ethical concept of wasatiyyah (moderation) with established radicalization frameworks, this study contributes to scholarly debates on culturally embedded prevention and specifies the institutional conditions necessary for teacher agency to effectively support resilience-building in plural societies. This article draws on data from a broader phenomenological study of IRE teachers’ practices in Banyuwangi, but specifically analyzes their role in preventing radicalization through the lens of wasatiyyah and soft prevention frameworks.

Abstract

This study analyzes public relations management in enhancing parental and community participation at State Junior High School 3 of Jambi City. The research employs a qualitative case study approach, collecting data through interviews, observations, and document analysis involving the principal, teachers, parents, the school committee, and community leaders. The findings indicate that public relations management is implemented systematically through three stages: planning, implementation, and evaluation. The planning stage includes coordination meetings and structured programs such as the annual meeting, social-religious activities, and the CARITI Program, supported by digital communication. Parental involvement, however, remains largely consultative. Program implementation effectively disseminates information and increases parental attendance, but active collaboration is still limited. Evaluation is conducted periodically using attendance and communication effectiveness indicators, yet parental participation in reflective and decision-making processes remains minimal. Overall, public relations management supports parental participation but remains consultative. Strengthening dialogue, participatory planning, and structured evaluation is necessary to foster a collaborative and sustainable partnership among the school, parents, and community leaders.

Abstract

This study examines Abuya Dimyati’s Sufism as a model of religious moderation and spiritual wisdom in the modern era. The research is motivated by the growing crisis of spirituality, the rise of religious extremism, and the transformation of religious authority in the digital age. Using a qualitative approach with a library research design, this study analyzes primary sources such as Abuya Dimyati’s teachings, sermons, and documented practices, as well as relevant contemporary scholarly literature. Data were analyzed using content analysis and hermeneutic interpretation to uncover the epistemological, ethical, and social dimensions of his Sufism. The findings reveal that Abuya Dimyati’s Sufism is rooted in akhlaqi Sufism, emphasizing the integration of sharia and haqiqa through ethical transformation and spiritual discipline. His teachings embody four core values of religious moderation: rahmah (compassion), tawazun (balance), zuhud (simplicity), and tasamuh (tolerance). These values function as internal mechanisms of ethical regulation, shaping both individual consciousness and social interaction. Furthermore, his Sufism reflects an “embodied spirituality” that integrates spiritual practice with social engagement, contributing to community harmony. This study proposes Sufism as a transformative moderation framework encompassing epistemological, psychological, and socio-practical dimensions. It argues that Abuya Dimyati’s Sufism provides a relevant and integrative response to contemporary challenges, including digital religiosity, polarization, and the crisis of religious authority. The study contributes to the development of Sufism as a contextual and globally relevant paradigm for fostering moderate, inclusive, and humanistic religious life.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the leadership strategies employed to address and respond to the decline in student enrollment. The research adopts a qualitative approach with a case study design, involving the pesantren’s leadership and asatidz as key informants. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis, and were subsequently analyzed interactively through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that leadership strategies are implemented in an integrated manner, encompassing the application of effective learning methods, enhancement of educational quality, assurance of competent human resources and teaching staff, active promotion through social media and school visits, as well as collaborative involvement of asatidz. The success of these strategies is supported not only by promotional activities but also by the quality of students’ learning experiences, which foster satisfaction, parental trust, and a positive reputation for the pesantren through word-of-mouth recommendations. The involvement of both leadership and asatidz reflects a participatory leadership model that synergizes quality management and institutional reputation, strategies aimed at addressing declining student enrollment and strengthening institutional attractiveness.

Abstract

This study addresses the limited empirical explanation of how Islamic educational institutions operationalize the integration of science and Islamic values in practice. It aims to examine how excellence programs in pesantren education facilitate this integration within daily learning processes. A qualitative case study was conducted at Pesantren Nurul Islam Jember, Indonesia. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with key stakeholders (pesantren leader, madrasah head, program coordinator, teachers, mentors, and students), classroom and laboratory observations, and analysis of institutional documents. Data were analyzed using an interactive model consisting of data condensation, data display, and conclusion verification. The findings reveal that the science excellence program functions as an integrative platform through four key components: institutional commitment, reflective pedagogy, collaborative learning, and experiential activities (e.g., robotics and competition-based mentoring). These components not only improve students’ scientific competencies and academic achievements but also foster discipline, ethical awareness, and leadership within a pesantren-based learning culture. This study concludes that excellence programs provide a practical and context-specific model for integrating science and Islamic values in Islamic education. The study contributes empirically by demonstrating how institutional programs translate integrative educational ideals into everyday practices.
