Abstract

Purpose – This study aims to analyze the moderation of Islam developed in the curriculum of Islamic educational institutions in Aceh, a special province with the implementation of Islamic law and a unique Dayah education system. Design/methods/approach – This study uses a phenomenological and sociological approach. In-depth interviews were conducted with leaders of Islamic boarding schools, madrasas, and schools, teachers, and students, accompanied by observation and documentation, which were analyzed using the Milles and Huberman model. Findings – The results of the study indicate that Islamic educational institutions in Aceh have provided their students with an understanding of religious moderation through the internalization of moderate religious values in the learning process. These Islamic moderate values are internalized through intraschool, extracurricular, and hidden curriculum programs by instilling attitudes that enable students to understand various deviations and differences in religious beliefs, act proportionally, non-discriminatorily, and respect ethnic and religious diversity. This moderate attitude can be found in social interactions between students, teachers, and people outside the school environment. Research implications/limitations – This study implies the importance of Islamic educational institutions in Aceh internalizing the values of Islamic moderation in the development of their curriculum to shape moderate attitudes in students. Originality/value – Many studies have been conducted on Islamic moderation in learning. However, studies on Islamic moderation in curriculum development in Islamic educational institutions in Dayah, Dayah Muhammadiyah, and Islamic schools in Aceh have not been explored much.

Abstract

Purpose – The study was conducted to comprehend the way Graduate School students of UIN Sunan Kalijaga Yogyakarta, Indonesia, define tolerance, and view its significance and evidence-based practices that benefit the community and society. The comprehension could be used to mitigate conflicts and tensions which in turn positively affect societal living conditions. All of these aim to eradicate intolerance toward minority groups and ultimately strengthen the national harmony. Methods – The qualitative study was run through interview with the students. Additionally, a literature review was also implemented to enrich primary data. Twelve students of School of Graduate Studies of UIN Sunan Kalijaga Yogyakarta were solicited through a convenience sampling, in which invitation letters were sent to them together with the informed consent. Those who responded to the letters were recruited to be participants. Data was gathered through individual interviews, and a focus group discussion was conducted at the end to consolidate overall data. We analyzed the data through intensive reading of verbatim transcripts prior to categorization establishment. Then, clusters were created for establishing themes. Findings – Understandings of religious tolerance can be explored in some critical issues such as freedom to religion in light of human rights and limitation, concepts of tolerance, significance of religious tolerance, evidence-based practice of such tolerance, and understanding benefits for societal harmony. Research implications/limitations – The twelve participants involving in the study imply significant impacts to Indonesian society as the Indonesian government is intensively maintaining tolerance and harmony for the nation unity despite the different background society’s existence. The small number of the participants cannot lessen the research validity because the study does not seek generalizability but understands the knowledge and experience of the participants. Originality/value – The research contributes to boost both individual and society for promoting religious tolerance values.

Abstract

Purpose – This study explores the collaborative role of religious educators in fostering interfaith harmony in Lombok and Bali, regions with diverse religious demographics. Design/methods/approach – A mixed-methods approach was used, combining qualitative case studies and quantitative analysis. Data were collected through interviews, observations, document analysis, and a Likert-scale questionnaire administered to 170 students. Structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) assessed relationships between perception, interaction experience, attitude, and understanding. Findings – Perception significantly influences interaction experience (0.930) and understanding (0.464), while interaction experience directly enhances understanding (0.505). Attitude had minimal impact (0.013). The model showed high predictive accuracy, with R² values of 90.2% for understanding and 84.9% for interaction experience, highlighting the importance of fostering positive perceptions and engagement. Research implications/limitations – The study focuses on two regions, limiting generalizability. Further research should explore long-term impacts and broader applications in multicultural settings. Originality/value – This study provides empirical evidence of interfaith collaboration's effectiveness in education, contributing valuable insights into religious inclusivity and social integration. Future research could expand this framework to other cultural contexts.

Abstract

Purpose – This research aims to develop and evaluate learning strategies and curricula focused on risk management education for emergency schools in post-disaster areas. The goal is to support a peaceful learning process that helps students recover from trauma while improving motivation, academic performance, and disaster preparedness. Methods – This research uses the Borg & Gall Research and Development Model to find an appropriate instructional strategy for peace education in post-natural disaster school areas. Data collection was found through documentation, interviews, and observation. Field tests I, II, and III were conducted at Madrasa Ibtidaiyah (Islamic Elementary School) in Sidoarjo, which is close to the mud-flood areas of Lapindo Enterprise. Findings – The results show an improvement in test scores conducted over three cycles in class 3 ICP 1 and ICP 2. Additionally, students were enthusiastic about participating in the learning series. The research was concluded after cycle III as it was deemed effective. The strategy using disaster mitigation questions was effectively implemented in the science class (IPA) of ICP 1, contributing 56.9%, and in the religious class (akidah akhlak) of ICP 2, contributing 75.4%, enhancing student achievement, motivation, awareness, and readiness in disaster mitigation. The peaceful education strategy for disaster mitigation was more effectively applied in akidah akhlak classes. The validation criteria were sufficiently valid and proven effective for emergency madrasa students. Research implications/limitations – This studys implications have proven to be practically useful in handling post-disaster emergency education in madrasa environments in Sidoarjo through the instillation of peaceful education in the learning process of science and Islamic Religious Education. However, this study has limitations regarding the level and number of madrasas studied. Originality/value – The originality of this research is shown from the results of field findings in madrasa in Sidoarjo, with the validity value of the R&D Model Borg and Gall research method. Further research development can be done by expanding the types and levels of madrasas or schools in East Java.

Abstract

Purpose – This study was conducted to examine the implementation of the Arabic Language Program (ALP) and to explore how Arabic functions as a foundational medium for the acquisition of Islamic knowledge at a public higher education institution in Malaysia. Design/methods/approach – This study employed a mixed-method exploratory design in two phases. The first phase involved qualitative data collection through semi-structured interviews with 46 informants, classroom observations of two classes and document analysis. These findings were used to construct a quantitative questionnaire, which was then administered in the second phase to 184 respondents. The data were analyzed thematically and statistically with triangulation to ensure depth and validity. Findings – The study identified three overarching themes: (i) Towards a Dynamic Arabic Language Curriculum for Holistic Islamic Education, (ii) A Curriculum That Meets the Pedagogical Needs of Arabic Language and Religious Learning and (iii) Challenges in the Execution of the ALP Curriculum. Research implications/limitations – While the findings indicate that ALP has effectively supported students’ progress in Islamic studies, the long-established structure of the curriculum may give benefit from greater responsiveness to current educational and industrial needs.  Therefore, it is recommended that further studies be conducted to explore lecturers’ perspectives and post-program outcomes in order to assess its long-term impact and sustainability. Originality/value – This study provides an in-depth evaluation of a 40-year-old Arabic preparatory program, emphasizing its role in strengthening Islamic education and identifying key areas for reform. It offers a valuable framework for enhancing Arabic language curriculum in higher education, particularly for non-native speakers especially in Southeast Asia, in support of religious educational objectives.

Abstract

Purpose – This article aims to analyze the influence of the Islamic school environment on students' prosocial behavior, with an emphasis on the integration of religious values in learning strategies and school policies. Design/methods/approach – This study used a sequential explanatory mixed-method design involving 445 students, four principals, and eight teachers from four Islamic junior high schools. The quantitative stage used structured questionnaires to assess prosocial behavior, school climate, and classroom learning practices. The qualitative stage involved interviews with principals and teachers to provide contextual understanding. Findings – Quantitative results show that the school atmosphere explains 27.2% of the variation in students' prosocial behavior (R² = .272). The most influential factors are peer relationships (β = .173), sense of belonging (β = .148), and interpersonal justice (β = .123). For classroom practices, positive teaching (β = .353) and teacher encouragement (β = .113) made significant contributions. Qualitative findings support these results, with teachers and principals citing programs such as 5S, study groups, and Friday donations as effective ways to foster empathy, cooperation, and concern among students. Research implications/limitations – This study highlights the importance of an Islamic-based environment in encouraging prosocial behavior, although the findings may not be generalized to non-Islamic educational contexts. Originality/value – This study offers valuable insights into the intersection between religion and education, and contributes to strategies for developing prosocial behavior in Islamic school.
