Abstract

This study explores the role of Islamic spirituality in the emotional recovery of students who experienced bullying in an Islamic educational setting. Using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA), data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and document analysis involving students at an Islamic junior secondary school (MTs) in Lamongan, Indonesia. The findings identify four interconnected themes: self-acceptance through prayer and dhikr; spiritual reflection (tafakkur) and sincere acceptance (ikhlas) in reinterpreting trauma; the role of the pesantren environment and religious teachers in rebuilding positive self-identity; and emotional transformation through sustained worship. These findings demonstrate that Islamic spirituality serves as a positive religious coping strategy, fostering emotional regulation, resilience, and meaning reconstruction. The study underscores the importance of integrating Islamic spirituality into holistic emotional recovery within Islamic educational contexts.

Abstract

This article challenges the legal-theological logic underpinning the Indonesian Constitutional Court (Mahkamah Konstitusi or MK) Decision No. 140/PUU-VII/2009, which upheld the Blasphemy Law on the grounds of maintaining "public order" and "religious purity" (ḥifẓ al-dīn). While existing scholarship predominantly critiques this decision through secular human rights frameworks, this study employs a hermeneutic dialectic method to confront the Court’s reasoning with an internal Islamic counter-narrative: the Aḥmadiyyah exegesis (tafsīr) of Qurʾān 2:256. The analysis reveals a fundamental epistemological divergence. The MK operates on a paradigm of "doctrinal fragility," assuming that religious truth requires coercive state protection to survive deviations. Conversely, the minority exegesis posits that because Truth (al-rushd) is ontologically distinct from Error (al-ghayy), coercion is logically redundant and theologically invalid. Empirical evidence from the Cikeusik and Sintang incidents further demonstrates that the state’s restrictive approach to ḥifẓ al-dīn creates a "feedback loop" of structural violence, where the legal designation of deviance legitimizes vigilante aggression, thereby violating ḥifẓ al-nafs (protection of life). By deconstructing the classical doctrine of abrogation (naskh) and redefining fitnah (disorder) as persecution rather than difference, this article argues for a systemic reconstruction of Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿah. It concludes that genuine public order in a pluralist state cannot be achieved through the policing of orthodoxy, but only through the recognition of conscience (ḥurriyyat al-iʿtiqād) as a prerequisite for social peace.

Abstract

The increasing polarization and destructive khilafiyah debates in the digital space demand a more substantive reconstruction of the ethics of religious discourse. This study analyzes Al-Ghazali's critique of jidal and mira' in Ihya Ulum al-Din and formulates a model for managing differences based on Maqasid al-Shari'ah. Using a qualitative approach of literature study and narrative review, content analysis is applied to Al-Ghazali's text and contemporary maqasid literature of the last five years. The results show that destructive debates are rooted in spiritual pathologies such as riya (riya) and self-dominance, which contradict the objectives of sharia (Islamic law) to safeguard religion (hifz al-din) and the soul (hifz al-nafs). The synthesis produces a "Systemic Moral" model that emphasizes tazkiyah as an internal prerequisite and public welfare as an external parameter. This study integrates personal Sufism and public law, and emphasizes the importance of transformative digital etiquette for social cohesion and harmony among the people.

Abstract

This study examines post-divorce child support in Indonesian Islamic law and positive law, focusing on the legal basis for confiscating ex-husbands’ assets and reconstructing child support enforcement through a maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah perspective. Using a normative-juridical method with statutory, conceptual, and case approaches, the study analyzes legislation, fiqh literature, and religious court decisions concerning child support and maintenance enforcement. The findings reveal that although both Islamic law and positive law impose child support obligations on fathers, enforcement remains weak, with many court decisions left unexecuted. This reflects the absence of effective enforcement norms and results in structural injustice toward children. From a maqāṣid perspective, asset seizure constitutes a legitimate and necessary enforcement instrument consistent with the protection of offspring (ḥifẓal-nasl) and property (ḥifẓal-māl). The study highlights the need to strengthen enforcement norms and judicial mechanisms governing child support obligations and recommends more proactive court practices to ensure the effective realization of children’s rights in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study examines the integration of ethnoscience into Environment-STEM learning in elementary schools in Pacitan Regency from an Islamic education perspective. Using a qualitative case study in ten public and Islamic elementary schools, data were collected through observations, interviews, and documentation and analyzed interactively. The findings show that local wisdom was transformed into Environment-STEM modules through Batik Pace, Wayang Beber, and local traditions, while Project-Based Learning promoted contextual and environmental problem solving. Islamic education served as a pedagogical framework by integrating the values of khalifah fil ardh, amanah, ihsan, and mizan into learning objectives, instructional strategies, and assessment. The study proposes a novel Environment-STEM pedagogical model that advances environmental literacy, scientific literacy, sustainable character, and culturally responsive education.

The Epistemic Authority in Islamic Religious Education in the Age of Generative Artificial Intelligence: Reconstructing the Concepts of Sanad and Talaqqī Faqih Abdul Aziz; Rohmat Robi' Rozaqiy; Dinar Bela Ayu Naj’ma; Muhammad Jafar Nashir; Ghazali Mohamed Fadzil

Abstract

Generative artificial intelligence (generative AI) places students of Islamic Religious Education before a source of religious knowledge that carries no chain of transmission. Existing scholarship addresses digital religious authority without entering the classroom, and technology in learning without questioning the knowledge's validity. This study reconstructs sanad and talaqqī into criteria of epistemic authority, tests generative artificial intelligence against them, and draws out the implications for Islamic Religious Education. Methodologically, this conceptual and philosophical-hermeneutic study draws on classical texts of hadith transmission, technological documents, and recent literature drawn from the Scopus database. Directed content analysis yields four criteria: continuity (ittiṣāl), moral integrity (ʿadālah), accuracy of transmission (ḍabṭ), and formation (takwīn). Generative artificial intelligence satisfies only accuracy, and only partially. Crucially, three failures are structural and one is contingent. This distinction requires task sorting and reasserting the teacher's standing, not blanket prohibition.

Abstract

Classical usul al-fiqh produced two ways of constructing legal theory: the deductive tariqah al-mutakallimin and the inductive tariqah al-hanafiyyah. Studies of Islamic law reform often contrast them as "normative" versus "contextual" and recommend combining them, yet rarely identify the theological premises behind each method or engage the historical precedent of tariqah al-jam'. This conceptual study applies qualitative content analysis to primary usul works and contemporary literature to answer three questions: what distinguishes the two methods, how the difference operates in concrete rulings, and what operational model of integration can be formulated. The findings show that the distinction is not reason versus text, since both methods are rational; they differ in the direction of reasoning and in their kalam premises on the rational knowability of good and evil. Four comparative cases (khamr and nabidh, guardianship in marriage, salam, and ijarah) show that divergence arises from specific rules on solitary reports, general terms, istihsan and the concept of rukn. The study proposes a four-stage model of verification, contextualization, maqasid testing and tarjih, and tests it on the 2021 Indonesian fatwa on cryptocurrency. The model develops tariqah al-jam' from a method of writing into an auditable procedure of collective ijtihad.

Abstract

This study examines the phenomenon of sound horeg in the Tapal Kuda region of East Java from the perspective of Islamic law using the maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah framework. The research employs a qualitative method by integrating a normative approach, which analyzes the Qur’an, hadith, and classical Islamic legal scholarship, with a socio-legal approach based on the examination of social media content and public discourse. The results show that sound horeg functions as a popular form of entertainment and contributes to local economic activities; however, excessive noise intensity generates significant harm, including health disturbances, social tension, and ethical violations. From the maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah perspective, these impacts indicate a conflict between public benefit and the protection of essential human interests.
