From Policy Formulation to Educational Outcomes: A Holistic Governance Analysis of Islamic Education Policy in Indonesia
type: item
description: Islamic Religious Education plays an important role in developing students’ moral, spiritual, and social character in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze the formulation, implementation, and future direction of IRE policy in Indonesia amid the challenges of globalization and digital transformation. The research employed a qualitative library research approach using government regulations, policy documents, academic books, and scholarly articles as data sources. Data were analyzed through content analysis and critical discourse analysis. The findings indicate that IRE policy has evolved from a state-centered approach toward a more collaborative and integrative model that combines religious values with scientific and technological developments. The implementation of IRE policy is influenced by teacher competence, institutional capacity, and digital readiness, while challenges remain in the form of educational disparities, policy fragmentation, and digital inequality. The study concludes that future reforms should emphasize integration-interconnection, collaborative governance, digital transformation, and Maqasid al-Shariah to strengthen the relevance and sustainability of Islamic education in the twenty-first century.

Islamic Education Policy in the Framework of Integration-Interconnection: Bridging Religious Knowledge and Scientific Disciplines in Islamic Education
type: item
description: This study examines the integration of Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿah into educational technology within the context of contemporary Islamic education. The rapid development of digital technology has transformed educational systems globally, creating both opportunities and ethical challenges related to human values, social responsibility, and educational sustainability. This research aims to analyze how the principles of Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿah can function as a normative framework for the development and implementation of educational technology, particularly in fostering ethical, adaptive, inclusive, and sustainable digital pedagogy. The study employs a qualitative literature review approach by analyzing scholarly sources, including journal articles, academic books, conference proceedings, and research reports related to educational technology, Islamic education, digital pedagogy, and Islamic ethical philosophy. The findings indicate that educational technology should not merely prioritize efficiency and technological innovation but must also protect essential human values such as intellectual integrity, moral responsibility, social justice, and human welfare. The study further reveals that Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿah provides a comprehensive ethical foundation for addressing issues such as digital dependency, algorithmic bias, educational inequality, and the dehumanization of learning environments. In addition, digital pedagogy based on Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿah demonstrates significant potential in promoting adaptive, inclusive, and sustainable Islamic education while preserving spiritual and humanitarian values in the digital era. This study contributes theoretically to the discourse of Islamic educational reform by proposing an integrative relationship between educational technology and Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿah as a framework for developing value-oriented digital education.

Reconstructing Islamic Educational Leadership: Negotiating Modern Managerial Rationality and Charismatic Authority in Indonesian Pesantren
type: item
description: The accelerating penetration of managerial rationality into Indonesian pesantren has generated a profound sociological tension between bureaucratic governance mechanisms and the enduring charismatic authority of the Kiai, producing competing sources of legitimacy that increasingly shape contemporary Islamic educational leadership. Situated within this context, the present inquiry seeks to transcend the binary opposition between managerial efficiency and spiritual authority through a reconstructed framework of leadership negotiation. Employing a qualitative philosophical-conceptual approach, the study utilizes critical content analysis and text-based hermeneutics to examine a corpus of literature spanning Western organizational sociology, theories of authority and managerialism, alongside scholarly works on pesantren, Islamic governance, and educational leadership. The analysis reveals that the uncritical adoption of bureaucratic instruments such as standard operating procedures, performance indicators, and formal accountability systems frequently generates operational paradoxes in institutional succession, financial governance, decision-making processes, and personnel loyalty. These tensions foster a zero-sum polarization in which administrative professionalism and charismatic legitimacy are often treated as mutually exclusive domains. The study formulates a Prophetic-Managerial Leadership model that repositions managerial efficiency as an operational engine functioning beneath the Kiai’s overarching spiritual and moral canopy. This framework offers a theoretically grounded pathway for reconfiguring governance structures, strengthening institutional sustainability, and guiding future policy development within contemporary pesantren and other Islamic educational institutions

Deconstructing Modern Educational Theories: Reclaiming Transcendental Values in Islamic Education Curriculum
type: item
description: An increasingly pervasive educational paradox lies in the capacity of modern educational theories to generate technical competence while simultaneously eroding the ontological and epistemological foundations that give human learning its ultimate meaning. Beneath the dominance of progressivism, constructivism, and outcome-based educational frameworks resides a secular architecture that progressively marginalizes transcendental sources of knowledge and redefines educational success through empirical utility and socio-economic functionality. This article undertakes a qualitative philosophical-conceptual inquiry employing text-based hermeneutics and critical content analysis of a corpus comprising foundational Western educational theories and seminal works of Islamic educational philosophy. The analysis reveals a structural cascade through which revelation, metaphysical consciousness, and sacred values are displaced from the center of curriculum design and subsequently translated into measurable behavioral indicators, reducing transcendental realities such as ikhlas, taqwa, and spiritual awareness to functional assessment categories. Such reductionism exposes a profound ontological mismatch between secular educational paradigms and the epistemological foundations of Islamic education. In response, the study advances a transcendental canopy model that repositions Divine Revelation (Wahyu) as the supreme epistemological framework governing all domains of knowledge. This reconstruction offers a philosophical foundation for curriculum renewal, educational leadership transformation, and the intellectual de-secularization of contemporary Islamic education

The Labyrinth of Leadership: Ibu Nyai’s Role in Islamic Psycho-Spiritual Pedagogy through Living Shalawat Nariyah
type: item
description: The dynamics of leadership in Indonesian pesantren continue to evolve amid modernization and patriarchal cultural structures that often limit women’s authority in religious and educational spaces. In this context, Ibu Nyai plays a strategic role as a spiritual leader, educator, and social mediator within pesantren communities. However, existing studies on pesantren leadership have largely focused on male religious authority, while the psycho-spiritual pedagogical role of Ibu Nyai through local Islamic traditions remains underexplored. This study aims to analyze the labyrinth of leadership experienced by Ibu Nyai in implementing Islamic psycho-spiritual pedagogy through the tradition of Living Shalawat Nariyah in Indonesian pesantren. This study employs a qualitative literature-based approach by analyzing classical Islamic texts, contemporary books, and reputable journal articles related to female leadership, psycho-spiritual pedagogy, and pesantren traditions published between 2020 and 2025. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis and conceptual interpretation. The findings reveal that Living Shalawat Nariyah functions not only as a religious ritual but also as a psycho-spiritual pedagogical medium that strengthens emotional resilience, spiritual awareness, and social harmony within pesantren communities. The study contributes to Islamic education discourse by offering a contextual framework for understanding female spiritual leadership in Indonesian pesantren.

Islamic Education and Digital Technology Disruption: Learning Dynamics, Ethics, and Social Transformation
type: item
description: This study examines the relationship between Islamic education and the challenges of digital technology in the contemporary era. The rapid development of digital technology, including the internet, social media, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and online learning platforms, has significantly transformed educational paradigms, learning systems, and the transmission of religious knowledge. Using a qualitative design with a library research approach, this study analyzed books, scholarly journal articles, and academic publications related to Islamic education, digital transformation, digital literacy, and educational ethics. The findings indicate that digital technology provides substantial opportunities for Islamic education, particularly in expanding access to Islamic scholarship, improving learning effectiveness, encouraging pedagogical innovation, and supporting personalized learning through AI-based applications. Digital platforms, gamification, interactive media, and Learning Management Systems (LMS) positively contribute to student engagement, creativity, and independent learning. However, the study also reveals that digital transformation presents multidimensional challenges, including epistemological crises related to religious authority, the spread of misinformation, moral degradation in digital spaces, reduced teacher-student interaction, psychological pressures on educators, and unequal access to technology. The findings further demonstrate that the successful transformation of Islamic education requires the integration of technology with the principles of tauhid, adab, and maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah. Curriculum reconstruction, strengthening digital literacy, improving teacher competence as “digital murabbi,” visionary leadership, and adaptive institutional policies are essential strategies for responding to technological disruption. This study concludes that digital technology should function not merely as a technical instrument but as a means of strengthening spiri…

Qur'anic Pedagogy and Critical Thinking: Bridging Revelation and Modern Educational Philosophy
type: item
description: This study explores the relationship between Qur’anic pedagogy and critical thinking in the context of modern educational philosophy. It focuses on how concepts of thinking found in the Qur’an can be understood in relation to contemporary critical thinking skills and how both can be brought together in learning practices. The study uses a qualitative approach with a conceptual, library-based design, drawing on classical Islamic scholarship as well as recent educational literature.The findings indicate that the Qur’an introduces various forms of intellectual engagement such as tafakkur, tadabbur, ta‘aqqul, nazar, and tafaqquh. These concepts reflect processes that are closely related to interpretation, analysis, evaluation, inference, and reflection in modern critical thinking frameworks. In addition, the study proposes an integrative perspective that connects these Qur’anic concepts with student-centered and inquiry-based learning approaches. The study argues that Qur’anic pedagogy is not in opposition to modern educational thought, but can enrich it by adding ethical and spiritual dimensions. It concludes that integrating both perspectives offers a more balanced approach to education, although further empirical studies are needed to examine its application in classroom settings.

Digital Ethics and Spirituality in Islam
type: item
description: The rapid development of digital technology has significantly transformed social interaction patterns and religious practices among Muslims; however, these changes are not always accompanied by adequate ethical and spiritual awareness. This study aims to comprehensively analyze the integration of digital ethics and spirituality from an Islamic perspective, identify moral and spiritual challenges in digital spaces, and examine the role of Islamic education in fostering spiritually grounded digital ethical awareness. This research employs a qualitative approach based on a systematic literature review, utilizing data sources such as scholarly journal articles, academic books, conference proceedings, and relevant research reports published within the last five years. Data were analyzed through stages of literature reduction, thematic categorization, conceptual synthesis, and theoretical interpretation. The findings indicate that digital ethics in Islam is rooted in moral values such as ṣidq (truthfulness), amanah (trustworthiness), and ihsan (excellence), which must be integrated with spirituality as an internal mechanism for shaping moral consciousness. Major challenges in digital spaces include ethical degradation, spiritual distraction, and the influence of algorithms that shape religious practices in a non-reflective manner. Additionally, a gap exists between normative understanding and actual digital behavior. In this context, Islamic education plays a strategic role as a transformative agent through the internalization of moral values and the strengthening of spiritual dimensions. In conclusion, the integration of digital ethics and Islamic spirituality represents a holistic approach essential for building a digital society that is ethical, civilized, and oriented toward transcendental values.

Epistemology of Contemporary Islamic Education
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the epistemological crisis in contemporary Islamic education, characterized by the dichotomy between religious knowledge (naqliyah) and general knowledge (aqliyah), and to formulate an integrative epistemological reconstruction model. The study uses a qualitative approach based on a systematic literature review by analyzing various relevant academic sources. The results of the study indicate that the epistemological dichotomy has led to the disintegration of science and the weakening of the orientation of Islamic education. A comparison of the thoughts of Ismail Raji al-Faruqi and M. Amin Abdullah reveals that the Islamization of science emphasizes the normative foundation of monotheism, while integration-interconnection emphasizes a dialogical and multidisciplinary approach. The synthesis of the two is strengthened through the integration of bayani, burhani, and irfani epistemologies that can build a holistic and anti-dichotomous scientific paradigm. However, the implementation of this paradigm still faces obstacles in the methodological and practical aspects of education. Therefore, the reconstruction of the epistemology of Islamic education needs to be directed at strengthening the integrative curriculum, transforming the role of educators, and responding to global issues. This research contributes to offering an integrative epistemological framework that is not only theoretical, but also transformative in responding to the challenges of modernity.

title: The Dialectics of Islamic Religious Education Values in the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Ecosystem: An Analysis of Learning Transformation among Generation Z (A Study of University Students in Pohuwato Regency)
description: This study explores the dialectic of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) values within the ecosystem of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its impact on the transformation of learning among Generation Z students in Pohuwato Regency. Using a qualitative field research approach, the study involved 15 students selected through purposive sampling based on their active use of AI in religious learning. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation, and analyzed using an interactive model combined with thematic analysis. The findings indicate that AI has become a dominant source of learning, leading to a shift from traditional thalab al-‘ilm practices toward instant and technology-based learning patterns. This transformation also affects the authority of knowledge, where AI is increasingly perceived as an alternative reference, often used without adequate verification. While AI enhances learning effectiveness and supports self-directed learning, it also contributes to the reduction and fragmentation of religious understanding due to its concise and decontextualized responses. Furthermore, the study reveals a value dialectic among students between the convenience of AI and the need for the validity of knowledge. The study concludes that AI has an ambivalent role, offering both opportunities and challenges. Therefore, integrating Islamic values with digital literacy is essential to ensure that AI functions as a supportive tool (wasilah) rather than a primary epistemic authority in Islamic education..

Digital literacy and religious moderation
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze students' digital literacy practices, the role of teachers in integrating digital literacy into learning, and the pedagogical construction of a synthesis between digital literacy and religious moderation values ​​in madrasas. This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study design conducted at SMAN 01 Tiris Probolinggo. Data collection techniques were carried out through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation. Data analysis used an interactive model that includes data condensation, data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, with validity tests through triangulation of sources, techniques, and member checking. The results of the study show three main findings. First, students' digital literacy practices contribute to shaping their understanding of religious moderation through the ability to access, select, and critically evaluate religious information. Second, teachers have a strategic role as facilitators and epistemological filters in integrating digital literacy into learning. Third, the synthesis between digital literacy and religious moderation values ​​can be constructed pedagogically through the stages of digital information exploration, critical reflection, and internalization of values. This research confirms that digital literacy is not neutral, but rather requires values-based pedagogical interventions to foster moderate, inclusive, and contextual religious understanding. Theoretically, this research contributes to the development of an integrative model based on thesis-antithesis-synthesis dialectics in Islamic education. Practically, this research has implications for educational institutions to strengthen teacher capacity, develop digital literacy policies, and create a learning ecosystem that supports religious moderation in the digital era.

type: item
description: This Community Service activity aims to implement and evaluate character development (akhlakul karimah) based on the Qur'an through a daily manners habituation program for TPQ Darul Iman Al Anshori Al Hasani students. The method used is a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques in the form of observation, interviews, and documentation involving the head of TPQ, managers, ustadz/ustadzah, and students.

type: item
description: Floods that occurred in Sumatra and Aceh in 2025 indicate an increasing frequency of natural disasters affecting community life and ecosystems. One approach that can be applied to reduce disaster risk is the implementation of ecotheological values in Islamic Religious Education (IRE).

Integrating Islamic Values into Character Education: A Multidisciplinary Approach to Preventing Moral Degradation among Youth
type: item
description: This study explores how Islamic values can be integrated into character education to prevent moral decline among youth in the era of globalization and technological change. The research responds to growing concerns about dishonesty, intolerance, lack of discipline, and weak social responsibility among younger generations. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were gathered through interviews, observations, and document analysis in Islamic-based schools. Results show that students’ perception of Islamic value integration in character education is high (M = 4.27). Spiritual values scored the highest (M = 4.34), followed by moral discipline (M = 4.29), social responsibility (M = 4.21), and intellectual integrity (M = 4.17). Regression analysis indicates that Islamic values significantly enhance the effectiveness of character education, explaining 54% of the variance. Spiritual values had the strongest effect, while moral discipline, social responsibility, and intellectual integrity also made meaningful contributions. The findings suggest that integrating Islamic principles supports students’ spiritual, moral, social, and intellectual growth, making them both academically competent and ethically responsible. This integration offers a practical response to the challenges of Society 5.0, balancing modern skills with strong moral foundations.
