Abstract

This activity aims to explore the potential of sharia agribusiness in improving food security and rural economy in Morbatoh Banyuates village, Indonesia. With a participatory approach, this activity involves local communities, including farmers and agribusiness actors, to identify local resources, community needs, and the impact of the training provided. The research method used is qualitative descriptive, which includes initial surveys, in-depth interviews, and training on sustainable agricultural practices. The results of mentoring and training show that the implementation of sharia agribusiness has succeeded in increasing people's knowledge and skills in managing agricultural businesses, which has a positive impact on increasing food production and income. The average rice production increased from 3 tons to 4.5 tons per hectare, and farmers' income increased from Rp 2,000,000 to Rp 3,500,000 per month. The implications of this activity show that sharia agribusiness can be an effective solution to empower rural communities, increase food security, and create sustainable economic welfare. Therefore, it is important to continue the sharia agribusiness development program by strengthening training and access to appropriate capital and technology.

Abstract

Zakat has great potential in improving the welfare of the people through economic empowerment. This research aims to explore the optimization of productive zakat management in the context of economic empowerment of the people in Indonesia. The research method used is a qualitative approach with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation. This research involves mustahik as respondents to understand their experiences and perspectives related to productive zakat management. The results of the activity showed that the productive zakat-based empowerment program, which includes entrepreneurship training, financial literacy, and the provision of business capital, succeeded in increasing economic independence by 70% mustahik. In addition, 85% of businesses supported by productive zakat remained stable after six months, reflecting the program's success in creating sustainable change. The implications of this activity show that more productive and sustainable management of zakat can increase public trust in zakat institutions, as well as encourage more muzakki participation. This study recommends the development of more integrated empowerment programs and effective monitoring systems to ensure the long-term impact of productive zakat. Thus, zakat can function not only as an instrument of wealth redistribution, but also as a significant tool of economic empowerment.

Abstract

Ecosystem degradation and increasing dependence on fruit supplies from outside the region have become significant environmental and public health challenges in Jember Regency. Land-use conversion, vegetation loss, and long distribution chains not only reduce environmental quality but also affect fruit quality, community health, and local economic stability. This community service activity aimed to enhance public awareness of the importance of adopting a green lifestyle for healthy living while providing practical education on sustainable fruit planting and maintenance techniques. The activity employed a participatory approach with site selection based on purposive sampling in Sukorejo Village, Bangsalsari District, Jember Regency. Participants included members of the Branch and Sub-Branch Boards of Fatayat NU Jember Regency. The program consisted of environmental socialization sessions, hands-on fruit seed planting activities, and the distribution of 2,000 fruit seedlings to participants. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation and analyzed using descriptive qualitative methods. The findings indicate active participant involvement throughout all stages of the program and an increased understanding of the ecological, health, and food security benefits of fruit tree cultivation. Moreover, participants demonstrated the potential to act as agents of change by disseminating green lifestyle practices within their communities. The implications of this activity suggest that participatory fruit planting initiatives can serve as an effective strategy to strengthen environmental awareness, promote healthier living conditions, and support sustainable local economic empowerment through community-based food independence.

Abstract

This research focuses on the transformation of mosque management as a center of modern Islamic activities, with the aim of identifying the main factors that support the success of mosque management in responding to the needs of worshippers and the challenges of the times. This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study method, involving direct observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation analysis to collect data from mosque administrators, worshippers, and related stakeholders. The results of the study show that the success of mosque management transformation is influenced by four main elements: adaptive organizational structure, sharia-based financial transparency, the use of digital technology, and active community participation. The use of technology speeds up administration and increases accountability, while congregational involvement enriches the dynamics of religious and social programs. This research implies that mosque administrators need to develop managerial and digital capacity in a sustainable manner to maintain the relevance of mosque institutions in the midst of social change. In addition, public policy support that strengthens synergies between mosques, educational institutions, and philanthropic organizations can accelerate innovation and expand the social impact of mosques. This study provides recommendations for further studies with a quantitative approach to measure the impact of transformation more broadly and deeply. This finding is expected to be the basis for the development of a sustainable mosque management model that is oriented to the needs of modern society.

Abstract

This research aims to examine the influence of structured mentoring on administrative empowerment at Madrasah Diniyah An-Nur, Kembang Jeruk. The primary focus of this research is to understand how a systematically designed mentoring process can improve the quality of administrative governance in community-based Islamic educational institutions. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach with a case study as the research type. Data collection was conducted through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation, with the research units including the head of the madrasah, teachers, and administrative staff. Data were analyzed through the processes of reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing, which were carried out continuously. The research results indicate that prior to the mentoring, the administration at Madrasah Diniyah An-Nur operated informally, was undocumented, and relied on oral habits and personal relationships. However, after the mentoring process, which included training, the development of a documentation system, as well as monitoring and evaluation, there was a significant improvement in aspects of letter documentation, activity planning, financial reporting, and internal coordination. The mentoring also triggered a transformation in work culture from individualistic to collaborative, and fostered the emergence of participatory leadership within the madrasah environment. The implications of this research underscore the importance of structured and sustainable administrative interventions in promoting the empowerment of local Islamic educational institutions.

Abstract

This community service program aims to increase the environmental hygiene awareness of SDN Sumbersari 1 students through a Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach by involving PAI teacher assistance to integrate Islamic values with environmental practices. As an Adiwiyata school at the Pasuruan district level that has a strong culture of gotong royong, this program utilizes local wisdom through three phases: education (integrating verses of the Qur'an and Hadith) about cleanliness in learning, action (conducting Clean Saturday movements, recycling projects, and greening), and reflection (evaluating changes through group discussions). The results showed a significant increase of 82% of students consistently throwing garbage in its place, while 78% showed an increase in collective responsibility through classroom-based environmental projects. A swot analysis identified teacher authority in conveying Islamic values, school leadership support, and local partnerships as key strengths. The study concludes that the combination of religious value-based education with practical activities is effective in fostering sustainable clean habits. Recommendations include further teacher training, development of teaching modules on STEAM-based recycling, and institutionalization of the program through local teacher networks. This model can be replicated in other schools to strengthen religious value-based environmental conservation.

Abstract

The Al-Banjari sholawat training program in Jambangan Village represents a strategic initiative aimed at developing children's creativity through the medium of Islamic arts. This study seeks to analyze the implementation of the Al-Banjari training, its impact on children's creative growth, and the challenges encountered during its execution. A Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach was employed, involving children aged 7–15 in planning, training, and evaluation processes. Data were collected through participatory observation, activity documentation, and pre- and post-training response assessments. The findings indicate a significant improvement in musical creativity, vocal expression, and artistic performance among the participants. The average engagement score increased from 2.37 to 4.66 following the training sessions. Furthermore, the program fostered stronger Islamic values, self-confidence, and a sense of collective spirit among the youth. Key challenges included limited facilities and the need for professional mentors, highlighting the importance of sustained support from the community and local government. This study demonstrates that Al-Banjari sholawat training serves not only as a means of preserving local Islamic cultural heritage but also as an effective tool for nurturing children's creativity and character. The findings underscore the importance of integrating religious art into community-based non-formal education programs, particularly in rural settings.

Abstract

The era of rapid globalization and technological advancement has significantly impacted the social and spiritual lives of university students, including those from engineering disciplines. Civil engineering students often face academic pressure and a competitive modern lifestyle, which leads to the neglect of their spiritual well-being. This study aims to strengthen Sufi (tasawuf) values as a strategy to maintain students’ spiritual and social balance through a Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach. The intervention was implemented in the form of microteaching by postgraduate students of Sunan Giri University to undergraduate students of the Faculty of Civil Engineering. The findings indicate that tasawuf values such as sincerity (ikhlas), patience (sabr), asceticism (zuhud), and self-reflection (muhasabah) can be understood and internalized by engineering students in a contextual and practical manner. The positive responses from participants suggest that tasawuf serves as a rational and relevant spiritual solution to the challenges of modern life. The study also highlights that participatory approaches encourage deeper self-reflection and value transformation.

Abstract

The quality of basic education is strongly influenced by the effectiveness of school work program planning that is systematic, measurable, and aligned with quality standards. In practice, however, many Integrated Islamic Elementary Schools (Sekolah Dasar Islam Terpadu/SDIT) still face limitations in developing annual school work programs that are fully integrated with the National Education Standards and principles of quality management. This community service activity aimed to strengthen school management capacity in developing quality-based school work programs through structured training and mentoring at SDIT Ar Ruhul Jadid Jombang. The activity employed a participatory and contextual approach, implemented through interactive workshops and intensive technical mentoring involving the principal, teachers, and educational staff. Data were collected using pre-tests and post-tests, direct observation, document analysis, and participant response questionnaires. The results indicate a significant improvement in participants’ conceptual understanding of education quality, Total Quality Management, and the National Education Standards, as reflected in the increase of the average score from 58.7 in the pre-test to 85.2 in the post-test. In addition, participants demonstrated enhanced technical skills in formulating school work programs that are more systematic, measurable, and aligned with quality indicators. The main output of this activity was a draft of a quality-based annual school work program that is ready for implementation. The findings imply that structured training and mentoring can effectively strengthen a school’s quality culture and managerial effectiveness, while also offering a practical and replicable model of community service for improving quality-oriented school management in Integrated Islamic Elementary Schools.
