Multicultural-Based Islamic Religious Education Learning Model: An Integrative Design for Character Strengthening
type: item
description: This study aims to develop an integrative design for multicultural Islamic Religious Education learning in order to strengthen the character of students in a pluralistic society. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach through a literature study by analyzing various theories and previous research results relevant to multicultural education and Islamic Religious Education learning. The results show that the integrative multicultural Islamic Religious Education learning design is built on the principles of content integration, knowledge construction, prejudice reduction, equality pedagogy, and empowerment of school culture.

Free Association and the Morals Crisis of Teens: The Urgency of Islamic Religious Education as A Preventive Solution
type: item
description: The phenomenon of promiscuity among adolescents is a serious problem that has resulted in a moral crisis and moral degradation. This article aims to analyze the forms of promiscuity, its causes, and examine the urgency of Islamic Religious Education as a preventative solution to address it. This research uses a qualitative approach with a literature review method, sourced from books, scientific articles, and relevant research findings. The results indicate that promiscuity is influenced by internal factors such as weak self-control and religious understanding, as well as external factors such as the social environment, digital media, and lack of family supervision. The resulting impacts are not only social but also detrimental to the spiritual and psychological aspects of adolescents. In this regard, Islamic Religious Education plays a strategic role through the internalization of moral values, strengthening faith, and character formation based on Islamic teachings. The implementation of contextual, integrative, and sustainable Islamic Religious Education has proven to be a preventive measure in protecting adolescents from deviant behavior. Therefore, synergy between families, schools, and communities is needed to optimize the function of Islamic Religious Education as a moral bulwark for the younger generation.

Integrating Religious Practice Into Character Education: Pedagogical Insights from Indonesian Islamic Elementary School
type: item
description: Abstracts Character education has become an essential foundation for achieving quality and sustainable education. However, many educational institutions still struggle to integrate moral and spiritual values into classroom practices, leading to a gap between knowledge and behavior. This study aims to explore how religious practices can be integrated into character education to foster moral and spiritual development among elementary students in Indonesia. Using a qualitative case study design, data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Salafiyah Kajen in Central Java. The participants included a principal, a religious practice teacher, and twelve fifth-grade students. Data were analyzed thematically using an interactive model to identify patterns of value internalization and pedagogical strategies. The findings reveal that religious practice-based learning effectively cultivates discipline, responsibility, empathy, and spiritual awareness among students. Teachers serve as moral exemplars, modeling Islamic values through daily interactions, while the school environment reinforces these values through a culture of worship and social care. Despite challenges such as large class sizes and limited instructional time, the integrated model strengthens moral consistency and religious consciousness. This study concludes that character education rooted in religious practice can provide a holistic and sustainable approach to value formation, contributing to the realization of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 4 on inclusive and equitable quality education

Navigating Digital Parenting in Islamic Education: The Qur’an’s Answer to Contemporary Family Challenges
type: item
description: The digital era has presented new challenges for Muslim families, where parents are no longer the sole source of values and knowledge. Digital algorithms, social media, and various online platforms now play a significant role in shaping children's ways of thinking, attitudes, and behaviors. This condition gives rise to serious issues such as exposure to negative content, cyberbullying, gadget addiction, and the weakening of social ethics. Departing from these concerns, this research aims to examine the concept of digital parenting based on Qur’anic values as a solution to strengthen family resilience. This study employs a descriptive qualitative method with a library research approach, analyzing Qur’anic verses such as Q.S. Luqman [31]:17 and Q.S. Al-Isra [17]:9, as well as classical and contemporary interpretations, and literature related to Islamic education. The results confirm that the Qur’an serves as a moral compass guiding digital parenting by emphasizing three main principles: prayer (salah) as a spiritual foundation, enjoining good and forbidding evil (amar ma’ruf nahi mungkar) as social control, and patience as a pillar in facing the dynamics of the digital era. The findings also formulate the "SAMUDRA" applicative strategy: Sadari peran (Realize the role), Awasi dengan bijak (Supervise wisely), Mendidik dengan literasi digital (Educate with digital literacy), Utamakan nilai (Prioritize values), Dampingi komunikasi (Accompany communication), Rancang batasan (Design boundaries), and Ajarkan tanggung jawab (Teach responsibility). By integrating Qur’anic principles into parenting, digital parenting functions not only as technical surveillance but also as a means of moral, spiritual, and social guidance. In conclusion, navigating Qur’anic digital parenting is relevant for building a sakinah (tranquil), mawaddah (loving), and wa rahmah (merciful) family, while simultaneously answering the major challenges faced by Muslim families amidst the rapid flow of global…

The Law of Recapitulation of Human Development from the Perspective of Islamic Education
type: item
description: Understanding the laws of development is crucial for explaining the process of human growth and change systematically and orderly. The current problem is the imbalance between biological, psychological, and social aspects of individual development, which often leads to adaptation difficulties and a lack of understanding of the natural rhythm of change that occurs in life. The purpose of this study is to provide a comprehensive understanding of the three main laws of development, namely the law of recapitulation introduced by Ernst Haeckel, the law of survival and self-development, and the law of rhythm or rhythm of development, and to explain the practical implications of these laws in everyday life. Method This study uses a qualitative approach with a literature review to analyze child development based on the theory of developmental psychology. Primary and secondary data are analyzed descriptively to provide an in-depth understanding of child development in the context of education. The results of the study indicate that Ernst Haeckel's law of recapitulation states that individual development reflects the stages of evolution of living things in general. The law of survival and self-development shows that living things maintain adaptive traits and develop the potential to face environmental changes. The law of rhythm of development shows that growth occurs regularly with phases of acceleration and deceleration.

The Period of Islamic Prosperity and the Development of Science in the Abbasid Period
type: item
description: The Abbasid period (750–1258 CE) marked the zenith of Islamic civilization, where the synthesis of knowledge from Greek, Persian, and Indian traditions produced a flourishing intellectual culture unparalleled in history. However, contemporary Islamic education has yet to fully integrate the epistemological values that underpinned this scientific and philosophical renaissance. This study aims to describe the characteristics and forms of scientific development during the Abbasid era, identify the main factors driving intellectual progress, analyze the contributions of Muslim scholars to global knowledge, and reveal the relevance of Abbasid intellectual values to modern Islamic education. Employing a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, the study analyzes 60 selected sources, including classical manuscripts and modern scholarly works, through a qualitative descriptive framework. The data reveal that Abbasid intellectual achievements were not solely products of economic prosperity or political stability, but the result of a deeply rooted knowledge culture that harmonized revelation (wahy) and reason (‘aql). The study concludes that the success of the Abbasid scientific movement stemmed from an ethical epistemology emphasizing intellectual humility, academic tolerance, and interdisciplinary inquiry. Theoretically, it reconstructs an integrative model of Islamic epistemology; practically, it offers a framework for reforming Islamic education to revive the spirit of intellectual creativity and moral responsibility. Thus, the Abbasid legacy serves as both a historical lesson and a transformative paradigm for contemporary Muslim scholarship

Inclusive Islamic Education: Creating a School Friendly For Children with Special Needs
type: item
description: Inclusive Islamic education plays a crucial role in fostering a supportive and equitable learning environment for children with special needs. Rooted in fundamental Islamic values such as rahmah (compassion), ‘adl (justice), and musawah (equality), this educational approach emphasizes the importance of providing fair and accessible learning opportunities for every student, regardless of their physical, intellectual, or emotional challenges. This article explores the concept and practical application of inclusive education within Islamic-based schools, focusing on strategic approaches that align with Islamic principles. Key strategies discussed include the implementation of differentiated instruction tailored to diverse learning needs, the provision of professional development and specialized training for teachers in handling students with special needs, and the integration of assistive technology to improve access to educational content. Employing a qualitative research design, this study utilizes literature review methods combined with case studies of several inclusive Islamic schools in Indonesia. The findings highlight that the success of inclusive Islamic education is significantly influenced by the presence of strong policy frameworks, active community and parental involvement, and flexible curriculum adaptations that accommodate individual learning profiles. This study concludes that the incorporation of inclusive values within Islamic education not only enhances educational equity but also nurtures a school culture that upholds the dignity and potential of all learners. Inclusive Islamic schools, therefore, can serve as transformative spaces for holistic student development without discrimination.

The Role of the Family in Forming Worship Habits in Adolescents
type: item
description: The family plays a significant role in shaping worship habits in teenagers. As the first social environment, the family contributes to instilling religious values, guiding children in carrying out worship, and providing examples in everyday life. Islamic education emphasizes the importance of forming religious character from an early age so that children are able to carry out religious commands well. However, in the digital era, the challenges in forming worship habits are increasingly complex due to the influence of technology, social media, and the wider social environment. This research uses library research methods by analyzing various sources, including journals, books, and scientific articles, to understand the role of the family in forming worship habits. The data obtained were compared with previous findings to develop a more comprehensive analysis. The results of the discussion show that religious education in the family plays a key role in shaping the Islamic character of adolescents. Being accustomed to worship from an early age, receiving emotional support from parents, and participating in the religious community are important factors in ensuring the consistency of worship. Apart from that, holistic religious education and collaboration between family, school, and community contribute to the formation of a strong religious character

Use of Social Media in Learning Islamic Religious Education in the Digital Era
type: item
description: The use of social media in Islamic Religious Education learning in the digital era is an innovative strategy to increase students' understanding, involvement, and motivation. Social media such as YouTube, Instagram, and WhatsApp are used as a means of delivering religious material, interactive discussions, and strengthening Islamic character.

The Role of Ulama in Building Islamic Civilization during the Abbasid Dynasty A Study of Scientific Contributions
type: item
description: The intellectual and scientific flourishing of Islamic civilization during the Abbasid Caliphate (750–1258 CE) has long been acknowledged, yet the multidimensional role of ulama in this advancement remains underexplored. This study addresses the limited understanding of how ulama contributed not only to religious orthodoxy but also to the development of rational and empirical sciences. The main objective of this research is to critically examine the scholarly contributions of ulama during the Abbasid period and their central role in shaping classical Islamic civilization. Employing a qualitative library research approach with a historical-critical perspective, data were obtained through the analysis of classical manuscripts and contemporary scholarly works related to the Abbasid era, prominent ulama, and Islamic civilization. The study reveals that ulama were key intellectual agents who bridged religious knowledge with rational sciences, significantly influencing fields such as medicine, astronomy, philosophy, and literature. Their integration of sacred and secular knowledge established a unique epistemological model that propelled the Islamic world to the height of its civilizational glory. This research offers a fresh theoretical contribution by highlighting the overlooked integrative role of ulama and provides practical implications for contemporary Islamic scholarship, especially in restoring a balanced approach to knowledge. While limited to textual analysis, this study opens opportunities for future empirical research on the enduring influence of Abbasid scholarship in modern Muslim societies

description: The digital era challenges the effectiveness of Islamic Religious Education learning due to the imbalance between technological advances and pedagogical practices. This study aims to analyze the role of digital media in improving the effectiveness of Islamic Religious Education learning, identify the types of media used, and evaluate teacher and student perceptions. Using a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach, data was collected from various journals, books, and relevant research. The results indicate that although digital media has great potential, its use is still complementary and not optimal pedagogically.

Evaluation of the Islamic Religious Education Curriculum in Building Religious Tolerance in Students of SMAN 1 Batusangkar
type: item
description: This study examines the contribution of the Islamic Religious Education curriculum in fostering religious tolerance at SMAN 1 Batusangkar. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the content, implementation, and effectiveness of the Islamic Religious Education curriculum in fostering interfaith tolerance. The method used in this study is descriptive qualitative with a case study approach, through interviews, observation, and documentation. The results of this study indicate that although the curriculum contains values of tolerance, its implementation has not been effective due to monotonous learning methods and minimal space for interfaith interaction. Student and teacher perceptions indicate a gap between the curriculum document and classroom reality. This study concludes that the Islamic Religious Education curriculum needs to be reformulated to be more contextual, inclusive, and able to foster a truly tolerant attitude in the school environment.

Islamic Religious Education Curriculum and the Problems of Cosmopolis Society and its Implementation in Learning
type: item
description: This article examines the relevance of the Islamic Religious Education (PAI) curriculum in addressing the challenges of cosmopolitan society, which is characterized by cultural diversity, ideological plurality, and often conflicting values with religious teachings. A cosmopolitan society demands an adaptive, contextual, and inclusive approach to religious instruction. This study employs a qualitative descriptive approach through literature review to analyze how the current PAI curriculum responds to these complexities and how it is implemented in classroom learning. The findings reveal that the curriculum remains largely normative and insufficiently responsive to contemporary issues such as tolerance, radicalism, multiculturalism, and digital identity. Therefore, it is essential to develop a transformative curriculum and dialogical learning strategies grounded in the social realities of cosmopolitan communities. The article recommends the integration of Islamic humanistic values into the PAI curriculum and pedagogy as an effort to shape a moderate, critical, and inclusive Muslim generation.

The Effectiveness of Using the Qira'ah Method in Improving the Ability to Read Kitab Kuning at the Darul Ulum Padang Magek Islamic Boarding School, Tanah Datar Regency
type: item
description: Students' difficulty in reading kitab kuning (classical Islamic texts) is a persistent issue in pesantren education, primarily due to the unvowelled Arabic script that requires deep grammatical understanding. This study aims to analyze the implementation of the Qira’ah method in kitab kuning learning at Pondok Pesantren Darul Ulum Padang Magek, assess its effectiveness in enhancing students’ reading and comprehension skills, evaluate existing obstacles and supporting factors, and offer recommendations for a more contextual learning model. Employing a Meta-analysis Literature Review (MALR) approach, this study systematically reviews and statistically synthesizes data from multiple relevant studies. Primary and secondary sources on the Qira’ah method, kitab kuning, and pesantren education served as the data base. The findings indicate that the Qira’ah method significantly improves the ability to read unvowelled Arabic texts and comprehend their meanings, especially when applied systematically and tailored to learners’ needs. Furthermore, this method proves to be adaptive, maintaining traditional educational values while responding to contemporary pedagogical demands. These results affirm that a well-contextualized classical approach can serve as a strategic alternative in developing effective kitab kuning instruction in Islamic boarding schools.

The Role of Aqidah Akhlak Teachers as Moral Role Models in Improving Positive Behavior of Students at MTsN 1 Tanah Datar
type: item
description: Student behavior in madrasah environments today shows alarming trends, including declining politeness, reduced respect for teachers, and lack of discipline. Although Akidah Akhlak is formally taught, moral values have not been fully internalized in students’ conduct. This study aims to describe the role of Akidah Akhlak teachers as moral exemplars at MTsN 1 Tanah Datar, analyze how their exemplarity influences students’ positive behavior, explore student behaviors that reflect moral role modeling, and identify the challenges teachers face in fulfilling this role. A qualitative phenomenological approach was used. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation involving three Akidah Akhlak teachers, one vice principal, six students, and two homeroom teachers selected purposively. The findings reveal that teachers’ consistency in attitude, speech, and behavior significantly influences student behavioral change both inside and outside the classroom. Students became more polite, disciplined, and showed greater interest in religious activities. This study demonstrates that teachers' role as moral models is not only effective in character formation but also in shaping a positive social climate within the school. The research contributes significantly to strengthening character education based on exemplarity in madrasah settings

Integration of Islamic Cultural Historical Values ​​in the Formation of Religious Character of Students of MTsN 5 Lima Puluh Kota
type: item
description: The integration of values in the teaching of Islamic Cultural History holds significant potential for shaping students' religious character. However, in practice, not all students at Madrasah Tsanawiyah, particularly at MTsN 5 Lima Puluh Kota, exhibit strong religious character despite having Islamic Cultural History as part of their curriculum. This study aims to describe how the value integration process in Islamic Cultural History learning is carried out, identify the forms of religious character developed, and determine the supporting and inhibiting factors in the process. The research employs a qualitative method using a case study approach. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving Islamic Cultural History teachers, students, school administrators, and parents. The findings reveal that Islamic Cultural History values are integrated through the exemplification of historical figures, reflection on historical events, and their relevance to students’ daily lives. This approach successfully cultivates aspects of religious character such as honesty, responsibility, and discipline, although not always consistently. Supporting factors include curriculum alignment and the school environment, while obstacles involve students' internal limitations and insufficient reinforcement of values outside the classroom. The study concludes that Islamic Cultural History learning plays a strategic role in religious character education and should be optimized through more holistic and collaborative approaches.

Implementation of Religious Moderation Values in The Independent Curriculum in Islamic Religious Education Subjects
type: item
description: The implementation of religious moderation values ​​in the Independent Curriculum in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) subjects aims to form students who have a tolerant, inclusive attitude and respect diversity. Religious moderation is an important part of education to avoid extremism and encourage a balanced understanding of religion. This research examines strategies for integrating religious moderation values ​​in PAI learning, the approaches used by educators, and the challenges in implementing them. The research method used is qualitative with a literature study approach and direct observation at educational institutions that have implemented the Merdeka Curriculum. The research results show a strong and mutually reinforcing correlation that the values ​​of religious moderation can be internalized into the independent Islamic religious education curriculum. Independent curriculum design for Islamic religious education is an important part of strengthening religious moderation in community life. The principles contained in the independent curriculum are very much in line with the values ​​of religious moderation. An independent curriculum for Islamic religious education needs a conceptual framework and rationale that is moderate and contextual.
