Abstract

There are currently more than 3.45 million Muslims in the United States, for whom new typologies of Islamic spaces are developing to meet their needs. One of these spaces is an organizational typology referred to as a third space.  Islamic third spaces are novel socio-religious environments that seek to support the needs of young U.S. Muslims. In the current exploratory cross-sectional study, I adopt an environmental psychology lens to explore how attachment to third spaces impacts dual identification. Data gathered from 110 U.S. Muslim third-space attendees show a significant positive relationship between participants’ place attachment to third spaces and their dual identification. Demographic variables, including gender, race or ethnicity, immigration status, and Islamic religious status, did not impact dual identification. In conclusion, developing and maintaining significant places for Muslims, such as third spaces, is one way to promote a well-integrated U.S.-Muslim identity.

Abstract

This study explores the development of digital technology and its impact on various aspects of social life, including the practice of matchmaking among young Indonesian Muslims. Online ta’aruf has emerged as an alternative to matchmaking based on Islamic values, adapting to the challenges of modern lifestyle and reflecting a response to the changing times. This research aims to understand how young Muslims perceive and practice online ta’aruf, as well as how the dimensions of religiosity and social values play a role in the process. This study employs a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach, involving in-depth interviews with informants who utilize online ta’aruf platforms from various regions in Indonesia. The findings indicate that online ta’aruf is perceived as a safer and more religiously permissible (halal) way than conventional dating. However, a significant dilemma arises from the tension between religious intentions and the practical reality that often resembles a pattern of mainstream digital matchmaking. While the primary motivation for use is religiosity—seeking relationships compliant with Islamic law (sharia)—practices such as intense, unmediated communication frequently diverge from ideal religious norms, closely resembling the pattern of digital dating. The value of religiosity is the primary motivation for using this platform, even though its interpretations and implementation vary widely, depending on educational background, personal beliefs, social environment, and involvement in the Islamic community. Consequently, there is a shift or transformation in the meaning of ta’aruf in the digital era as a space for negotiation between faith, norms, and technology. Therefore, the meaning of online ta’aruf not only functions as a medium for Islamic matchmaking but also reflects the dynamics of the religious values and identity of young Muslims who live in an increasingly digitized and normative-flexible society.

Abstract

Human trafficking is an escalating crime in Jordan, driven by complex economic, social, and political factors such as poverty, legal fragility, and the refugee crisis, all of which threaten human dignity and justice. This study aims to analyze the Jordanian legal framework, specifically Law No. 9 of 2009 and its 2021 Amendment, from the perspective of Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿā, with a focus on protecting victims and enhancing their well-being. This study employs a mixed-methodology approach that integrates inductive, descriptive, analytical, comparative, and maqāsid-based methods. It relies on reviewing legal and Islamic literature, analyzing legislative texts and official reports, and examining three real cases that represent different patterns of trafficking. The findings reveal a relative alignment with the objectives of darūriyyāt (necessities), particularly the preservation of life and dignity, through provisions that ensure healthcare and security. However, practical application exposes evident gaps at the levels of ḥājiyyāt (needs) and tahsīniyyāt (embellishments). These include weaknesses in psychological and social rehabilitation, ambiguity in certain legal concepts, limited resources, and weak institutional coordination. The case studies further highlight challenges related to forced labor, organ trafficking, and sexual exploitation, reflecting shortcomings in upholding the objectives of preserving honor and property. The study recommends legislative and institutional reforms to clarify concepts, strengthen support and integration programs through Islamic tools such as zakāt and waqf, and expand international cooperation to combat this cross-border crime. It also calls for preventive policies that integrate the three levels of Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿa, to ensure victim protection and foster complementarity between sharīʿa and modern law.

Abstract

Digital transformation is reshaping Islamic financial institutions, creating a need to develop technological competencies that remain aligned with Islamic spiritual and ethical values. This study investigates how Bank Syariah Indonesia integrates principles such as taqwā (piety), amānah (trustworthiness), and ‘adl (justice) into the development of human capital in the digital era. Drawing on a qualitative case study design, semi-structured interviews were conducted with eleven managers and analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis. The findings reveal six key themes: the alignment of digital practices with sharia requirements, spiritual intelligence as a guiding work ethos, Islamic leadership and cultural modeling, sharia-driven decision-making and risk governance, sharia-integrated role-based training, and systemic and generational challenges that shape implementation. Collectively, these insights demonstrate that Islamic values are not only embedded in ethical guidelines but also in daily digital workflows, leadership routines, and competency-building structures. The study advances Islamic human resource development (HRD) theory by introducing a Tripartite Islamic Human Capital Model that integrates technical proficiency, ethical reasoning, and spiritual alignment. Practically, the findings emphasize the need for value-embedded HR strategies to support the digital transformation of Islamic financial institutions.

Abstract

The model for nurturing attitudes of religious moderation in State Islamic Higher Education Institutions (PTKIN) has primarily focused on the cognitive dimension, particularly the aspect of understanding. However, it is important to acknowledge that moderate religious attitudes are also shaped by the processes of meaning-making and habituation. This study offers novelty by contextually adapting the character education model as a comprehensive framework for nurturing moderate religious attitudes in PTKIN. This study employs a qualitative approach with a phenomenological design. The data is analyzed through several stages: data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing, with the aim of understanding the significance of students’ experiences while participating in the moderate religious attitude formation program. The study results indicate that the adapted character education model, which combines elements of understanding, meaning, and habituation, effectively promotes moderate religious attitudes among PTKIN students. These findings provide important implications for the development of religious moderation programs within the PTKIN context. However, this study has limitations regarding the scope of participants, as it does not represent all PTKIN in Indonesia. Therefore, further testing of these results in a broader context is necessary.

Abstract

The development of leading Islamic schools in Indonesia cannot be separated from the growth of the large Muslim middle class, particularly in urban areas. The increasing economic capacity of the Muslim middle class, coupled with strong religious awareness, has led to numerous demands and expectations in the field of education. Therefore, in relation to the current trend, this study aims to determine the expectations of the Muslim middle class regarding the quality management of leading Islamic schools, as well as how their curricula and services are administered. The expectation of school quality is realized through Total Quality Management (TQM), a management system that involves all human resources within the school environment to enhance both the quality of education and the outcome of graduates. The research was conducted in the Islamic Junior High School (SMP) of Muhammadiyah Ahmad Dahlan, a leading Islamic school in Metro City that implements four effective, internationally standardized curricula. This research employed a qualitative approach with a narrative inquiry method. Data were collected using interviews, observation, and documentation. The primary data sources included the principal, vice-principal, teachers, and students. Secondary data sources included guardians or parents of students, as well as educational stakeholders. The collected data were then analyzed using an inductive approach. Based on the research process and data analysis, the findings of this study indicate that: (1) The Muslim middle class has high expectations for Islamic educational institutions in integrated quality management, particularly in improving religious learning, providing high and competitive academic quality, and developing students’ Islamic character and morals. (2) Quality educational institutions also require up-to-date facilities and infrastructure, competent and professional teachers, a comfortable school environment, and stakeholder involvement. (3) In pursuit of its objectives, the school implements integrated quality management through the application of an internationally standardized curriculum based on Islamic values, sustainable human resource management, a transparent and accountable financial system, and the provision of representative learning facilities and infrastructure.

Abstract

Digital advancement has intensified materialistic orientations among contemporary youth, creating tensions with ascetic values in Islamic thought. This study examines spiritual transformation through Kiai Ihsan Jampes' zuhud teachings among digital-generation Muslims in Kediri, Indonesia. Using phenomenological methodology, data were collected through textual analysis of Kiai Ihsan Jampes's works, particularly Siraj al-Thalibin, complemented by observational studies at Pesantren Al-Ihsan Jampes in Kediri and supplementary interviews with santris. The study reveals Kiai Ihsan Jampes's distinctive interpretation of zuhud as balanced engagement—maintaining worldly participation while detaching the heart from material dependency. This approach differs from classical ascetic withdrawal by advocating active social engagement guided by spiritual principles. The findings demonstrate that zuhud internalization enables spiritual resilience against digital materialism through practical frameworks for ethical consumption. This study contributes to digital spirituality discourse by presenting an indigenous Islamic response to contemporary spiritual challenges, offering theoretical insights for religious adaptation in digital contexts.
