Abstract

This study explores the integration of deep learning strategies with character education in the teaching of Bahasa Indonesia within the framework of the Merdeka (Independent) Curriculum. The primary objective is to examine how this pedagogical approach fosters meaningful, reflective, and context-driven learning experiences for students. Employing a qualitative descriptive method, the research was conducted at SMP Muhammadiyah 1 Makassar using participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and document analysis involving Bahasa Indonesia (Indonesian language) teachers and Grade VIII students. Findings reveal that the application of deep learning strategies actively engages students through text analysis, value-based discussions, and reflective writing, enhancing not only cognitive comprehension but also the internalization of core character values such as empathy, honesty, and responsibility. Teachers act as transformative facilitators who cultivate dialogic and humanistic learning environments, in alignment with the vision of the Merdeka Curriculum. Despite challenges such as limited instructional time and varying levels of student readiness, the approach has proven effective in shaping learners who are academically capable and morally grounded. In conclusion, the integration of deep learning and character education serves as a vital bridge between academic achievement and personal development. This research contributes both theoretically and practically to the development of adaptive, value-oriented instructional models relevant to 21st-century education. Moreover, it enriches the global discourse on holistic, values-based education and underscores the critical role of teachers as transformative agents in humanizing the learning process.

Abstract

Improving the quality of madrasah education is a strategic imperative in addressing the challenges of educational relevance, efficiency, and equity within Indonesia’s decentralized education system. This study aims to analyze the role of Madrasah-Based Management (MBM) in enhancing educational quality through case studies at three state madrasahs in Tasikmalaya Regency: Madrasah Tsanawiyah (MTs—Islamic Junior High School) Negeri Pamoyanan, MTs Negeri Singaparna, and MTs Negeri Sukamanah. Using a qualitative approach and case study method, data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document analysis, and examined using Miles and Huberman’s interactive analysis model. The findings reveal that the effectiveness of MBM is largely determined by transformational leadership, teacher capacity-building through continuous professional development, and active community involvement in educational decision-making. Among the three institutions, MTs Negeri Sukamanah demonstrates a more structured and responsive managerial approach, while MTs Pamoyanan and MTs Singaparna still struggle with financial limitations, insufficient human resources, and low public engagement. The study highlights that MBM is not merely an administrative model but a transformative strategy that requires the synergy of institutional autonomy, supportive policies, and meaningful partnerships with local communities. As a policy contribution, this research recommends strengthening madrasah leadership training, aligning curricula with local values, increasing performance-based funding, and expanding public education literacy as key foundations for sustainable quality improvement in Indonesia's madrasah system.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to explore high school students' views on fasting and their experiences in receiving fasting education, using a transmission pedagogic perspective. This study used a qualitative approach with a phenomenological design and successfully explored 139 students' experiences through questionnaires. The collected data were analyzed with the help of NVivo 12 software, which facilitated the data tabulation process. The data analysis process was carried out through three stages, namely data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that students get information about fasting and its values, but they only believe the information conveyed by credible subjects, who are able to practice fasting well and become role models for them. Environmental conditioning with structured fasting education programs, reinforced by harmonious collaboration between religious teachers, parents, and religious preachers, provides opportunities for students to gain insight into fasting as well as opportunities to practice the practice of fasting. In addition, the reinforcement received by students further boosts their motivation to fast. However, the influence of the peer environment, social media, and the lack of role models in daily life reduce students' intrinsic motivation and hinder the consistency of their character in carrying out the practice of fasting continuously.

Abstract

This metatheoretical study emerges from a critical reassessment of classical economic thought, which reduces scarcity to a mere technical issue of limited resources against unlimited wants—neglecting its deeper social, ecological, and ethical dimensions. In the face of accelerating global crises marked by structural inequality, institutional decay, and environmental degradation, scarcity is better understood as a manifestation of rising social entropy—a systemic disintegration triggered by the depletion of social energy such as trust, participation, and moral legitimacy. This research aims to reframe scarcity through an interdisciplinary synthesis of social entropy theory (Bailey), social thermodynamics modeling (Tsekov), and foundational Islamic ethical principles including ‘adl (justice), amanah (trust), and mīzān (cosmic balance). Using a conceptual literature review, this study develops a theoretical framework that positions ethical and spiritual values as vital forms of social energy capable of counteracting entropy and sustaining systemic equilibrium. The findings reveal that scarcity is not simply a material deficiency but a multidimensional crisis demanding a transformative response—one rooted not only in technical rationality but also in spiritual wisdom, distributive justice, and collective moral responsibility. The study contributes a novel conceptual model that bridges physical social science with Islamic moral epistemology, offering a holistic lens for understanding scarcity while informing equitable public policy, institutional reform, and sustainable social design.

Abstract

This study examines how local government policy contributes to the effectiveness of zakat revenue collection, focusing on the case of BAZNAS in Serang Regency, Indonesia. Zakat, an Islamic fiscal obligation, serves not only as an act of worship but also as a mechanism for socio-economic redistribution. Despite its potential, zakat collection in many regions remains suboptimal due to fragmented policies and weak institutional synergy. This research addresses a critical gap in global Islamic finance literature by investigating zakat governance at the subnational level, especially in a decentralized administrative context. Using a qualitative method that includes document analysis and semi-structured interviews with key stakeholders, the study explores how formal regulations, government facilitation, and inter-agency coordination shape institutional performance. The findings reveal that local policies—such as mandatory zakat deductions for civil servants, operational support, and integration of zakat into regional development planning—significantly enhance zakat income and institutional legitimacy. However, challenges such as limited bureaucratic capacity, inconsistent implementation, and fragmented institutional roles hinder optimal performance. The study concludes that effective zakat governance requires not only normative alignment with Islamic values but also robust policy design, administrative professionalism, and participatory mechanisms. By bridging institutional theory and Islamic public finance, this study offers a contextualized model of state–faith institutional synergy that may be applied to other Muslim-majority countries or regions with similar governance dynamics.

Abstract

Sharia-based Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) represent a critical driver of economic development in Indonesia, contributing significantly to employment, poverty alleviation, and local entrepreneurship. In a country with the world’s largest Muslim population, the integration of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah principles into MSME governance offers a unique pathway toward ethical and inclusive economic growth. This study investigates the institutional, financial, and socio-religious dynamics that shape the performance and sustainability of Sharia-compliant MSMEs. It explores how Islamic economic principles intersect with regulatory frameworks and market practices to influence business outcomes in this sector. The objective is to formulate a conceptual and practical model for strengthening Sharia-based MSMEs in Indonesia. Adopting a qualitative approach, this research utilizes document analysis from regulatory texts, journal articles, and Islamic economic theory. Findings reveal critical challenges in legal harmonization, limited access to Sharia-compliant financing, and inconsistent application of ‘adl (justice), amanah (trust), and raḥmah (compassion) in entrepreneurial practices. However, notable opportunities exist in the areas of community-based empowerment, halal certification, and fintech adoption aligned with Islamic values. This study contributes to both policy and academic discourses by offering an integrative perspective on Sharia-based MSMEs. It highlights the importance of strengthening tawhidic foundations in economic structures and provides a roadmap for policymakers, practitioners, and scholars committed to building an inclusive and just economic system rooted in Islamic ethics.

Abstract

The primary objective of this study is to investigate and gain a comprehensive understanding of the social experiences of women who wear the veil in their everyday lives. The study seeks to achieve two key objectives: first, to discern the motivations driving women to wear the veil, and second, to examine the social dynamics governing their utilization of the veil in daily life. Employing a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach, data collection was carried out through interviews and observations. The findings of this study shed light on the diverse motivations that drive veiled career women to wear the veil. These motivations are rooted in various causal factors, including experiences of disturbance, societal influences, concerns, and familial issues. The overarching objective for these women is to fortify their faith and safeguard themselves against undesirable behaviors. Moreover, the study reveals that the veil holds multiple meanings for career women who wear it, such as serving as reminders, protective elements, expressions of gratitude, symbols of communication, obligations, and even challenges. The dynamics of communication among women who wear the veil, as explored in this study, encompass interactions with their immediate environment, their social circles, and communication within the workplace. These interactions elicit a spectrum of responses and reactions, ranging from rejection and alienation to serving as role models and sources of inspiration for others considering the practice of wearing the veil. This research provides valuable insights into the complex interplay of motives, meanings, and social interactions surrounding the practice of veiling among career women

Abstract

This article emphasised the local Muslim community's response to environmental change and explored how religious narratives play a significant role in shaping their action. Place-based narrative is employed as conceptual frame to scrutinise the community’s understanding of the drowning condition. As a case study, Pantai Bahagia Village in West Java is selected based on two criteria: (1) deemed as the fastest drowning area in the North Java Coast; and (2) the existing Muslim-based environmental activism initiated by local teachers in responding to environmental change. For method, qualitative case study is applied by conducting interviews, group discussions, and direct observation. Findings show that the local history of Pantai Bahagia interacts with a national political event in the 1960s that eventually triggers massive environmental change in the Beting area. Further analysis of the place-based narrative indicates that familiarity with religious expressions encourages ecological awareness in the local community and provides the basis for environmental activism.

Abstract

This study investigates the intersection between feminism in the context of Islam and its influence on the rights and obligations of career women in the domestic environment. Employing an explanatory approach, the study aims to examine the causal relationship between the understanding of feminism in Islam and the dynamics of rights and obligations within family structures. Data were collected through interviews with relevant respondents and an extensive literature review. The findings indicate that feminist thought in Islam emphasizes equality in rights and obligations between women and men across various aspects of life, including in the context of women's careers. This research also examines the fair distribution of domestic duties and the concept of an ideal family in Islam, reflecting equality for both partners. This study is particularly relevant amidst the evolving roles of women in society, especially those who are career-oriented. By providing a thorough analysis, this research strives to highlight how feminism in Islam can influence the rights and obligations of career women in the domestic sphere, and underscores the need for a harmonious balance between religious teachings and aspirations for gender equality. The contribution of this research lies in developing an inclusive perspective on the role of women in Islamic society.
