Abstract

Objective:  This study aims to examine the implementation of learning innovations and the integration of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) values in the Darul Ilmi Islamic Boarding School, as well as the strategies used in dealing with the digital era and the challenges that arise during the integration process. Theoretical framework: The theoretical framework of this research is based on the concept of sustainable Islamic education that integrates global values (SDGs), local wisdom, and Islamic principles as a foothold in the development of an Islamic boarding school education system that is adaptive to the changing times. Literature review: The literature review includes studies on pesantren education innovations, the integration of SDGs values in the learning system, and the transformation of sustainability value-based education, which is still limited, especially in the context of children's pesantren. Methods: This study uses a qualitative approach with data collection techniques in the form of in-depth interviews, direct observation, and documentation. The main informants consist of pesantren caregivers, accompanying teachers, and students who are selected purposively. Data analysis was carried out using the Miles and Huberman model: data reduction, data presentation, and a conclusion drawn. Results: The results show that SDGs-based learning innovations are implemented through contextual approaches that combine global, local, and Islamic values. This innovation has a positive impact on the quality of learning and social relevance of Islamic boarding schools, as well as improving the image of Islamic boarding schools in the community. Implications: Providing an adaptive and sustainable model of Islamic education in responding to global challenges. Novelty: Offers a new study on the integration of SDGs in children's boarding schools, which is still rarely discussed scientifically.

Abstract

Objective: This study explores the social interpretation of lifestyle differences between Muhammadiyah and Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) adolescents in Semarang City within the framework of achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly Goal 4 (Quality Education), Goal 10 (Reduced Inequalities), and Goal 16 (Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions). Theoretical framework: The theoretical framework is grounded in social construction theory and religious sociology, examining how social and religious identities shape behavior. Literature review: The literature review emphasizes previous research on Islamic youth subcultures, lifestyle studies, and the role of religious institutions in shaping adolescent identity. Methods: This study employs a qualitative method using a phenomenological approach to deeply understand the lived experiences and perceptions of youth from both Muhammadiyah and NU backgrounds. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with members of both youth communities and participant observation. The study also includes an analysis of a recent conflict arising from differing views on worship practices. Results: The findings reveal two main points. First, ideological differences have led to disagreements in social interpretations of worship behavior. Second, lifestyle disparities emerge in clothing preferences and consumption patterns, reflecting deeper cultural and theological differences. These differences pose communication barriers between the two communities. However, the research also finds that mosque-based youth programs can serve as a communication bridge, promoting synergy and mutual understanding through structured, one-way interpretation communication models. Implications: The implications of this research highlight the need for inclusive religious education models and inter-community dialogue as tools to support SDG values such as tolerance, equality, and social harmony. Novelty: The novelty of the study lies in its contextual focus on youth identity formation within religious organizations and its integration of the SDGs perspective into the analysis of intra-religious diversity in urban Islamic settings.

Abstract

Objective: This study aims to reconstruct the Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) scheme from the perspective of Islamic law by integrating the principles of maqāṣid al-sharī'ah and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The main focus of the research is to offer an alternative BNPL scheme that is not only by sharia principles, but also supports social justice and economic sustainability. Theoretical framework: This research is based on the principles of maqāṣid al-sharī'ah (protection of property, intellect, and justice) associated with the SDGs, especially SDG 1, SDG 8, and SDG 12. Literature review:  The literature review covers classical and contemporary Islamic legal literature, murābaḥah contracts, and BNPL practices in Indonesian fintech. It was found that there is a lack of integration between sharia principles and sustainability aspects in the digital BNPL scheme. Methods: Using a normative qualitative approach through the study of Islamic legal literature and secondary data on BNPL practice, to formulate an alternative sharia model based on the murābaḥah bi al-taqsīṭ contract. Results: The study found that conventional BNPL schemes contain elements of riba, gharar, and contract ambiguity, which can be detrimental to consumers, especially vulnerable groups. As a solution, a BNPL model based on the murābaḥah contract is offered that meets sharia principles and supports the principles of social justice and economic sustainability. Implications: This research promotes the establishment of a fair Islamic digital financial system, protects consumers, and supports sustainable development goals. Novelty: The novelty lies in the proposed integrative framework between Islamic law and the SDGs in responding to the challenges of BNPL services in the fintech era.

Abstract

Objective: This study explores the leadership transformation of Islamic higher education institutions (Perguruan Tinggi Keagamaan Islam Swasta/PTKIS), focusing on the Mamba'ul 'Ulum Islamic Institute Indonesia (IIMU) from 2020 to 2025. Theoretical framework: Anchored in the theory of democratic leadership in Islamic education, the study emphasizes participation, authority distribution, and inclusivity as key pillars for organizational transformation. Literature review: A literature review highlights the relevance of transformational, participatory, structural, and cultural dimensions in shaping effective leadership in Islamic educational settings. Methods: The research employs a qualitative case study method, utilizing in-depth interviews, participatory observations, and document analysis. The participants include institutional leaders, lecturers, and staff across different departments at IIMU. Results: Findings reveal that although IIMU adopts a democratic leadership style in principle, the actual involvement of subordinates in strategic decision-making and program implementation remains minimal. Structural hierarchies, centralized decision-making practices, and entrenched work cultures present significant barriers. Nonetheless, where subordinate engagement is enhanced, there is a notable improvement in managerial efficiency and the overall quality of educational programs. In alignment with Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 4, which promotes inclusive and equitable quality education and lifelong learning opportunities for all, this study underlines the importance of collaborative governance in Islamic education. Implications: It suggests that strengthening participatory leadership could support institutional innovation, accountability, and inclusive development. Furthermore, promoting internal dialogue and professional empowerment aligns with SDG 16, which calls for effective, accountable, and inclusive institutions. Novelty: The study’s novelty lies in its contribution to the discourse on democratic values in Islamic education leadership, particularly in PTKIS transformation. It highlights how empowering subordinates can enhance educational service delivery and institutional sustainability. These insights are vital for stakeholders aiming to align Islamic higher education with national education reforms and global development agendas such as the SDGs.

Data were collected through document analysis and interviews with Islamic Religious Education teachers, the head of the teachers' working group forum, school principals, and policymakers. Results: Islamic Religious Education teachers have a positive perception of technology mastery, as it helps them access more Islamic learning resources, reach a wider range of students, especially in distance learning, and make learning more interactive; in addition, the Teachers Working Group Forum plays a role in helping them learn technology gradually, although there are still challenges such as the lack of technical training, limited technology facilities in schools, the low level of digital literacy of Islamic Religious Education teachers, and concerns about the negative impact of technology use. Implications: In addition, this research contributes to the achievement of the SDGs, particularly in quality education (SDG 4), technological innovation in education (SDG 9), reducing disparities in access to education (SDG 10), and strengthening partnerships in the development of technology-based education (SDG 17). Novelty: Overall, this research brings a new perspective to the field of Islamic religious education by highlighting how mastery of technology can improve the competence of Islamic Religious Education teachers, as well as how the Teacher Working Group Forum can act as a catalyst in digital transformation for religious educators.

Abstract

Objective: The purpose of this study is to analyze the implementation of murabahah contracts in Islamic financial institutions, focusing on the implementation mechanism, the application of sharia principles, and the challenges faced in the transaction process. This study also explores how the implementation of murabahah contracts contributes to the achievement of several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly in promoting inclusive economic growth (SDG 8), strengthening financial institutions (SDG 16), and supporting ethical consumption and production patterns (SDG 12). Theoretical framework: The theoretical framework used in this study is based on Islamic economic principles and sharia provisions related to murabahah contracts, including the important role of cooperation with third parties such as suppliers. It is contextualized with the SDGs framework to assess the alignment between Islamic finance practices and global development goals. Literature review: A literature review is conducted through a literacy study that collects various views and previous findings regarding the practice of murabahah contracts in Islamic financial institutions. The review also includes discussions on how Islamic finance can serve as a tool for achieving SDGs, particularly in enhancing financial inclusion and responsible financing. Methods: The method used is a qualitative approach with literature studies as the main data collection technique. Results: The results of the study show that even though the murabahah contract is theoretically in line with sharia principles, in practice there are still various obstacles such as unclear costs and uncertainty between related parties. In addition, cooperation with suppliers as third parties is considered important for smooth transactions but requires strict supervision to remain in accordance with sharia rules. Effective murabahah implementation supports SDGs by ensuring equitable access to financing and enhancing trust in Islamic financial systems. Implications: The implication of this study is the need to increase sharia efficiency and compliance in the implementation of murabahah contracts, especially in the aspects of transparency and supervision of third parties. These improvements are crucial to align Islamic financial practices with SDGs, particularly in ensuring justice, accountability, and sustainable economic systems. Novelty: The novelty of this study lies in a comprehensive discussion of the strategic role of cooperation with suppliers in the implementation of murabahah contracts, which has not been studied in depth in previous studies.

Abstract

Objectives: This study aims to examine how Islamic ecotheology is constructed within political Islamic movements in Indonesia, particularly focusing on the rise of green radicalism. It explores how Qur’anic ecological verses are politicized by radical groups to criticize democracy and promote the caliphate system. Theoretical framework: The study uses Althusser’s ideology theory and Fairclough’s critical discourse analysis to analyze how ecological narratives are politicized. It also introduces the Radical Ideological Ecotheological (EIR) Model, combining maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah and SDGs frameworks. Literature review: A systematic review of 42 articles highlights the politicization of Qur’anic ecological verses by political groups and the intersection of Islamic ecotheology with global sustainability discussions. Method: The study employs a systematic literature review (SLR) of 42 articles, using Althusser’s ideology theory and Fairclough’s critical discourse analysis to analyze how radical movements utilize ecological narratives. Result: Radical groups selectively use Qur’anic ecological verses to criticize democracy and advocate for a caliphate. The study introduces the Radical Ideological Ecotheological (EIR) Model, which integrates Islamic law objectives (maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah) with the SDGs framework. Implications: The study suggests practical ways to strengthen ecological literacy in Islamic education, promoting an understanding of Islamic teachings on ecology within the global sustainability discourse.

Abstract

Objective: This study examines the role of Sharia finance in driving economic growth and supporting the achievement of the SDGs in Muslim countries in Asia. The main objective is to analyze the development, challenges, and contributions of Sharia financing systems, as well as to compare their performance with conventional financial systems in promoting economic growth, financial inclusion, and sustainability. Theoretical framework: The theoretical framework is grounded in Islamic financial principles that prohibit riba (usury), gharar (excessive uncertainty), and investment in haram sectors, while emphasizing social justice, risk-sharing, ethical investment, and inclusive development, which are closely aligned with the core objectives of the SDGs, particularly SDG 1, SDG 8, and SDG 10. Literature review: The literature review synthesizes previous studies on the development of Islamic finance in Malaysia, Indonesia, Brunei Darussalam, and Muslim regions of the Philippines, focusing on regulatory frameworks, levels of Islamic financial literacy, product innovation, and the sector’s contribution to regional economic growth and sustainable development. Methods: Methodologically, this study employs a descriptive and comparative literature-based approach, analyzing the implementation and evolution of Sharia and conventional financial systems across selected Asian Muslim countries, while identifying key challenges and opportunities in advancing SDG-oriented finance. Results: The findings reveal that Sharia finance has experienced significant growth in Asia, with Malaysia emerging as a global Islamic finance hub and Indonesia demonstrating substantial market potential. Despite this progress, challenges remain, including limited financial literacy, regulatory fragmentation, and the need for greater product and technological innovation. Empirical evidence suggests that Sharia finance contributes positively to financial inclusion, sustainable economic growth, financial stability, human capital development, and technological adoption, thereby reinforcing its relevance to SDG-driven development strategies. Implications: The study’s implications highlight the importance of strengthening Islamic financial literacy, harmonizing regulations, and encouraging innovation to position Sharia finance as a strategic pillar of sustainable and inclusive economic growth in Asia. Novelty: The novelty of this research lies in its comprehensive and integrative analysis of Sharia finance within an SDG framework, demonstrating its comparative advantages over conventional finance in fostering equitable and sustainable development.

Abstract

Objective: By comparing the principles of Islamic law contained in the fatwa of DSN-MUI Number 146/DSN-MUI/XII/2021 and Law Number 8 of 1999 concerning Consumer Protection (UUPK), this study aims to analyze the legal protection provided to consumers against gharar (uncertainty) in sharia e-commerce transactions. Theoretical framework: used refers to fiqh muamalah, legal principles contained in the UUPK and in the DSN-MUI Fatwa, as well as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), especially the 12th and 16th SDGs. Literature review: Few studies explicitly address the existence and forms of gharar in sharia e-commerce and its legal consequences, most of which still focus on consumer protection from a normative point of view only. Method: using normative legal analysis, with legislative, conceptual, and comparative approaches, and supported by literature studies. Results: show that although the Consumer Protection Law does not specifically mention the use of the term "gharar", the prohibition against ambiguity, fraud, and failure to fulfill consumer rights has been accommodated with the principles of justice, transparency, and responsibility. In addition to the UUPK, the DSN-MUI fatwa emphasizes the importance of clarity of contracts, clarity of product information, and prohibition of harmful Sharia practices. Implications: This study highlights the need to align Sharia principles with positive law. Emphasizing the need for harmonization between sharia norms and positive law to ensure that consumer protection in Indonesia is formal and substantive, in line with Islamic justice values. Novelty: from this research reveals explicit regulatory loopholes in the UUPK and the disclosure of the form of gharar in the context of sharia e-commerce, which can serve as a basis for national legal policy recommendations based on Islamic principles as well as an integrative approach between sharia values, national law and global development in the context of digital consumer protection.
