Abstract

Environmental education in Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) can promote ecological sustainability. Although eco-pesantren studies have examined environmental programs, sanitation, and institutional management, the interrelationship between ecological knowledge, emotional engagement, everyday practices, and spiritual meaning-making in students’ lived experiences warrants further examination. This study examines how students experience and interpret ecospiritual education in relation to environmental awareness at El-Azzam Islamic Boarding School, Indonesia. Employing a qualitative phenomenological design, the study involved seven purposively selected participants: five students and two caregivers. Data were collected over six months through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis, and were analysed through data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing and verification. The findings identify four interrelated dimensions: ecological literacy, emotional engagement, experiential learning, and spiritual internalization. Ecological literacy is reflected in environmental learning and interaction with nature; emotional engagement in empathy, gratitude, and care for living beings; and experiential learning in farming, livestock care, waste management, and environmental maintenance. Spiritual internalization emerges as students interpret environmental care in terms of worship, gratitude, divine trust (amānah), and obedience to Allah. These dimensions transform routine ecological practices into moral and religious commitments. By foregrounding students’ lived experiences, this study extends eco-pesantren research and positions Islamic spirituality as a transformative foundation for holistic and sustainable environmental education.

Abstract

Islamic elementary education plays an important role in developing students' independence, character, and readiness for increasing personal, social, and religious responsibilities. This study aimed to develop an Aqil Baligh-based life skills curriculum and examine descriptive changes in student independence during its initial implementation. The study employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach comprising needs analysis, curriculum design, expert review, limited field implementation, product revision, and evaluation. The field trial involved 20 students from Grades IV–VI at one Islamic elementary school. Data were collected through classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, questionnaires, and structured assessments covering five dimensions of student independence: responsibility, time discipline, learning initiative, worship independence, and social cooperation. Quantitative analysis compared mean scores across the pre-cycle, Cycle I, and Cycle II. The recorded mean scores increased from 2.10 to 3.80 for responsibility, 2.31 to 3.60 for time discipline, 2.01 to 3.70 for learning initiative, 2.41 to 3.90 for worship independence, and 2.51 to 3.97 for social cooperation. These findings document consistent upward descriptive patterns across all five dimensions during implementation. The study contributes an integrated curriculum framework connecting practical life skills, Islamic values, and gradual preparation for increasing responsibility. Further evaluation using validated assessment instruments and comparative designs is needed to establish its effectiveness and wider applicability.

Abstract

This study is based on the need to connect religious texts with contemporary reality through a more comprehensive approach. This research aims to describe the integration of traditional exegesis methods with Naturalistic Inquiry. U using literature review and analyzing through plural epistemological theories, this article explores and delineates the similarities between the understanding of texts and the natural socio-cultural context.  This research successfully compiles a new methodological framework called The Integrative-Naturalistic Tafsir Paradigm. This paradigm positions sacred texts and field reality (includes three methods: textual, virtual, and field research) as two inseparable entities, but as elements that interact and continually reinforce each other, This paradigm enriches the methodology of Islamic studies by offering an inclusive and non-reductionist epistemological model. In addition, the framework directs scholars and translators to create interpretations that are contextualized, adaptable, and attuned to contemporary human challenges while preserving the authenticity of the original text.

Abstract

This study examines the relationships between religious moderation, empathy, tolerance, and social cohesion among Islamic secondary school students in pluralistic educational environments. Conducted in Pesawaran Regency, Lampung Province, Indonesia, a heterogeneous area shaped by transmigration and characterized by ethnic, cultural, and religious diversity, the study employed a quantitative cross-sectional survey design. Data were collected from 100 students selected through stratified random sampling using a structured questionnaire with a five-point Likert scale. Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS 4 was used to evaluate the measurement and structural models. The results demonstrated positive and statistically significant associations between all three explanatory variables and social cohesion. Religious moderation (β = 0.399, p < 0.001) and empathy (β = 0.397, p < 0.001) exhibited closely comparable path coefficients, while tolerance also showed a significant positive association (β = 0.311, p < 0.001). Together, these variables explained 77.2% of the variance in social cohesion (R² = 0.772). The cross-sectional design and the focus on students in one regency limit causal inference and the generalizability of the findings. Future research may employ longitudinal designs and incorporate additional factors, such as social media exposure, parenting practices, and school leadership. By examining religious moderation alongside psychosocial dimensions within a single structural model, this study contributes empirical evidence to the literature on Islamic education and social cohesion. The findings highlight the relevance of integrating religious values, empathy, and tolerance in fostering harmonious relationships within pluralistic educational settings.

Abstract

Rasm Uthmāni has commonly been examined as a system of Qur’anic orthography and textual preservation, while its distinctive written forms also invite interpretive analysis. This study examines the semiotic, aesthetic, and hermeneutic significance of selected orthographic features and their contribution to approaches to Qur’anic interpretation. Employing a qualitative descriptive-analytical method, the study draws on works by al-Dānī, al-Zarkashī, al-Marrākushī, and Muhammad Syamlūl, supported by scholarship on Qur’anic manuscripts and printed editions. Selected instances of letter addition, omission, and orthographic variation are examined through Saussure’s signifier–signified distinction, Peirce’s representamen–object–interpretant model, and Schleiermacher’s grammatical and psychological hermeneutics. The analysis relates the additional yā’ in bi’aydī (Q.S. al-Dhāriyāt: 47) to classical interpretations of divine power, examines the omitted alif in al-qawā’id (Q.S. al-Nūr: 60) within its linguistic and exegetical context, and discusses tā’ maftūḥah in selected references to women in relation to marital and spiritual circumstances. The discussion also situates the tawqīfī view within debates over orthographic preservation and draws on studies documenting the coexistence of Uthmāni and Imlā’ī conventions in Nusantara manuscripts. These findings demonstrate how the relationship between visual form, textual context, and classical interpretation enriches approaches to Qur’anic exegesis. The study thus highlights Rasm Uthmāni as an intersection of textual preservation, visual aesthetics, and interpretation, offering an integrated perspective on Qur’anic interpretation methodology.

Abstract

How Muslims internalize their faith shapes the moral character they bring to their professional lives, yet the lived relationship between intrinsic religious orientation and moral foundations remains underexplored in Indonesian Islamic higher education. This study examines how intrinsic religious orientation manifests in the moral foundations of Muslim academics in Makassar. Using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA), six lecturers were screened with an adapted intrinsic–extrinsic religious orientation measure, and four who met the study's operational criterion for dominant intrinsic orientation were selected for in-depth interviews. The analysis identified five group experiential themes: intrinsic religiosity as an internalized source of moral conduct; the lecturer role as an act of worship; spirituality as active coping; psychological burdens associated with expectations of public piety; and the reframing of exhaustion as meaningful. Care and fairness were prominent in participants' moral accounts, while the sacralization of professional work was interpreted in relation to the purity foundation. Authority and loyalty appeared in individual configurations. Tawakkal (trust in God) was explicitly articulated by two participants, while three described reframing exhaustion through religious meaning. These findings reveal shared moral concerns expressed through distinct religious and professional experiences. Situated within Makassar's historical connections to Indian Ocean Islamic scholarly networks, the study offers a contextual understanding of lived Islamic morality and recommends further inquiry across religious-orientation types and other Muslim coastal communities.

Abstract

Work in Islamic-oriented organizations may be experienced simultaneously as an economic, professional, relational, moral, and spiritual activity shaped by employees’ religious values. This study explores how Muslim employees in Islamic-oriented organizations in Indonesia interpret and experience the meaning of work through faith-based perspectives. Using an Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) approach, data were collected through in-depth semi-structured interviews with 28 Muslim employees working in various Islamic-oriented institutions. The findings identify five interconnected dimensions through which participants interpreted their work: amanah as moral responsibility; muraqabah as internal moral self-regulation; faith-based belonging grounded in shared Islamic values; spiritual and relational job satisfaction; and self-transformation through continuous ethical and spiritual development. The study suggests that Islamic faith functioned for participants as both a personal source of meaning and an interpretive moral-relational framework shaping attitudes, workplace behavior, and organizational attachment. These findings contribute to discussions on meaningful work, Islamic work ethics, and workplace spirituality by offering an empirically grounded understanding of how faith becomes embedded in everyday organizational experiences. The study further highlights the importance of moral alignment, spiritual consciousness, and collective values in fostering ethical commitment and meaningful organizational engagement within Islamic-oriented workplaces

Abstract

Lecturer professional development is essential for improving academic quality and institutional performance in higher education. In Islamic higher education, professional development also needs to reflect institutional values and academic responsibilities. This study examines how Islamic higher education institutions in Banten manage lecturer professional development through human resource strategies. Using a qualitative multi-site case study design, the study interviewed 24 participants: three institutional leaders, three HR managers, six academic leaders, and twelve permanent lecturers. Interviews were complemented by institutional document analysis and observations of institutional environments, development activities, and interaction patterns at three institutions. The data were analysed thematically to identify patterns in HR policies, implementation practices, supporting factors, and challenges. The findings indicate that lecturer development is supported through recruitment aligned with institutional vision and mission, training, further study support, mentoring, peer learning, performance appraisal, research incentives, digital capacity building, and religious and moral development. Supporting conditions included leadership commitment, a supportive academic culture, internal collaboration, funding, and external networks. However, implementation remains constrained by limited funding, heavy workloads, unequal access to development opportunities, resistance to change, research and publication difficulties, and inconsistent policy implementation. The study highlights the importance of integrating HR strategies with institutional goals and Islamic values to develop sustainable lecturer professional development systems in Islamic higher education.

Abstract

Allah revealed the Qur’an as guidance for both humans and jinn, and as a miracle proving the truthfulness of His Prophet, peace be upon him. With the emergence of artificial intelligence technology and its entry into the field of Qur’anic studies, this study came to evaluate the effectiveness and reliability of interpretations generated by ChatGPT in fulfilling the rights of the Qur’an, and in explaining contemplative verses that require deep intellectual reasoning, by comparing it with a respected traditional interpretive approach represented by the book 'Tafsir Al-Azhar' by its well-known contemporary author Hamka; a famous figure in the Malay world. The study relied on a comparative analytical approach to observe the points of similarity and difference between humans and machines, and to demonstrate the accuracy of technological outputs in this noble science. The study aims to enhance and expand the scientific findings related to the reliability of ChatGPT in interpreting the Qur’an compared to traditional scientific interpretations. The results showed that interpretations based on human effort and the use of scientific tools far surpass what AI can provide, as ChatGPT failed to match the precision and depth of human insight in interpreting the contemplative verses. The study, therefore, recommends the necessity of strictly critical engagement with religious information derived from artificial intelligence, and calls for the formation of a reputable scientific body that brings together specialized interpretation scholars and computer programming experts to review and regulate these technologies, ensuring the safety and reliability of the outcomes produced.

Abstract

Indonesia’s religious diversity presents ongoing challenges in managing disputes over houses of worship, particularly when administrative regulations intersect with community relations and religious identities. This study examines the dynamics of religious conflicts, the mediating roles of the Forum for Religious Harmony (known as Forum Kerukunan Umat Beragama, FKUB), and the extent to which its mediation practices reflect principles associated with multicultural counseling. A qualitative comparative multiple-case study was conducted in Bogor City, West Java, and Aceh Singkil District, Aceh. Data were drawn from interviews with eight key participants representing FKUB, government institutions, religious leaders, and community representatives, supplemented by field observations and document analysis. The data were analyzed through within-case analysis followed by cross-case comparison. The findings show that disputes in both sites were initially associated with the establishment, legality, or use of houses of worship, but developed into broader interreligious tensions when administrative disagreements interacted with mistrust, competing interpretations, and communication problems. FKUB functioned primarily as a mediator and dialogue facilitator linking religious communities, government actors, and local stakeholders, although the form and intensity of mediation differed across the two cases. The findings further indicate that several mediation practices, including perspective-taking, neutrality, culturally sensitive communication, and collaborative dialogue reflect principles associated with multicultural counseling, even though participants did not formally identify these practices as multicultural counseling interventions. This study contributes by demonstrating how multicultural counseling can serve as an analytical lens for understanding culturally responsive, community-based mediation in religious-conflict settings.
