Islamic boarding schools (pondok pesantren) are the oldest Islamic educational institutions in Indonesia, playing a significant role in shaping the moral, spiritual, and intellectual character of society. Alongside the growing integration of formal education, pesantren are required to develop more modern and adaptive leadership models without abandoning their traditional values. This study aims to design a pesantren leadership structure that integrates transformational, distributive, and instructional leadership principles rooted in local culture. The analysis conducted at Pondok Pesantren Al-Mukhlisin in Deli Serdang Regency indicates that leadership patterns remain centered on the kiai figure, resulting in suboptimal coordination and delegation of authority. Transformational leadership is needed to foster inspiration and motivation; distributive leadership to strengthen collaboration and participation; and instructional leadership to ensure instructional quality and teachers’ professional development. The integration of these three leadership models is believed to create a pesantren leadership system that is visionary, participatory, and quality-oriented, while remaining aligned with local cultural values such as gotong royong, musyawarah, and familial solidarity. Thus, pesantren can evolve into innovative, adaptive, and sustainable Islamic educational institutions in the modern era.

The rapid development of digital technology has driven the advancement of the gaming industry in Indonesia, including the emergence of local games such as DreadOut by Digital Happiness, which has gained international recognition. However, this success is accompanied by serious challenges in the form of piracy through illegal websites that harm copyright holders. This study aims to analyze the legal protection of the game DreadOut against piracy practices based on Law Number 28 of 2014 concerning Copyright. The method used is a normative juridical approach through statutory analysis and literature study. The findings show that DreadOut is a copyrighted work categorized as a video game and is legally protected. Nevertheless, law enforcement against piracy still faces various obstacles, such as the complaint-based offense system, low public awareness, and the ease of access to piracy sites. Therefore, stronger inter-agency cooperation, policy reforms to shift complaint-based offenses into ordinary offenses, and public education to increase respect for intellectual property rights are needed. Effective legal protection will support the growth of the local gaming industry and ensure the sustainability of Indonesian creative works in the digital era.

In this article, we explore the concept and goals of Islamic education from the perspective of Imam Shafi'i, a great scholar and founder of one of the most important schools of Islamic jurisprudence in history. Based on the Quran and Sunnah, his views offer a balanced perspective on the intellectual and spiritual aspects of the educational profession. He believed that education aims not only to increase one's knowledge but also to develop one's character, morality, and devotion to Allah SWT. He emphasized that true knowledge is knowledge that benefits individuals and society and helps them draw closer to the Creator. According to Imam Shafi'i, Islamic education must combine religious and general knowledge in a balanced way, as both complement each other to shape the whole person. He believed that an educated person must possess not only intellectual intelligence but also high moral and spiritual integrity. He emphasized that academic success is measured not only by a student's ability to understand the subject matter but also by how they apply ethical principles, social responsibility, and a sense of community service. Furthermore, Imam Shafi'i emphasized the importance of maintaining a balance between cognitive, emotional, and intellectual abilities during the pursuit of knowledge. He argued that knowledge without morality loses its foundation, while morality without knowledge loses its foundation. This concept presents Islamic teachings holistically, where knowledge, ethics, and spirituality must be integrated.Imam Syafi'i's views remain relevant today. They can serve as a guide in building a character-based Islamic education system capable of adapting to changing times and addressing global challenges. The education he taught, which encompasses values ​​such as honesty, responsibility, and balance between this world and the hereafter, provides a clear path to producing a generation of educated and noble Muslims who will contribute positively to the world and humanity as a whole.

This Community Service (PKM) activity aims to assist students of Madrasah Tsanawiyah Shirojut Thalibin in understanding the adolescent development period through the perspectives of Aristotle, Comenius, and Charlotte Bühler. The mentoring was motivated by the complexity of physical, emotional, social, and spiritual changes during adolescence and the low interest of students in studying the stages of human development. The activity was carried out for one week through educational, interactive, and collaborative strategies, using participatory discussion methods, theoretical explanations contextualized with the realities of adolescent life, varied learning media, role simulations, and joint evaluation and reflection. The subjects of the activity were students of MTs Sirajut Thalibin Racek Village, Tiris District, Probolinggo. The results of the mentoring showed an increase in students' understanding of the stages of adolescent development, a higher awareness of maintaining physical and mental health, and a better ability to link personal changes with developmental tasks and life goals. Teachers and the madrasah also experienced positive impacts in the form of strengthened understanding of adolescent characteristics and adjustments to a more holistic learning approach. This activity produces scientific articles, activity documentation, and student work products, while also recommending the integration of human development material in learning and guidance programs to support the moral, intellectual, social, and spiritual development of adolescents.

This study examines the representation of patriarchal hegemony and the forms of women’s resistance in Kartini (2017), a film directed by Hanung Bramantyo, using Antonio Gramsci’s theory of hegemony as the analytical framework. The research is grounded in the persistence of patriarchal culture that places women in subordinate positions within society, including in media and film representations. The purpose of this study is to identify the forms of patriarchal domination depicted in the film and to analyze the main character’s strategies of resistance against such hegemony. The study employs a descriptive qualitative method, with data collected through observation of scenes and dialogues that reveal social domination and acts of resistance. The analysis process involves data reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing by connecting findings with Gramsci’s theoretical concepts. The results indicate that social domination in the film is represented through restrictions on women’s education, social control, and the reinforcement of traditional values that constrain women’s roles. Patriarchy operates not through physical coercion but through social consent internalized as cultural truth. Meanwhile, Kartini’s resistance is expressed through critical awareness, education, and the dissemination of emancipatory ideas as forms of counter-hegemony. The film portrays women’s struggle to challenge patriarchal structures through intellectual strength and ideological consciousness. The findings suggest that social change begins with shifts in cultural consciousness rather than merely structural transformation.

This article examines the conceot of knowledge (ilmu) within the Islamic perspective, which holds a highliy privileged position, ranking second only to the word Tauhid (Monotheism) in Islamic teachings. his paper employs a Library Research methodology (kajian pustaka). his approach involves the assimilation, study, and in-depth analysis of various readings utilized by the author. he presence of knowledge and education profoundly influences the development of human life concepts. In the Qur'an, the word "ilmu" (knowledge/science), in its various forms, in Quran, testifying to the distinctiveness of humans as caliphs on earth. Literally, "ilmu" is defined as knowing or to know, while technically it means understanding the reality of something or the rule governing it. The ultimate source of knowledge is Allah SWT. The process of teaching knowledge from Allah can be direct (revelation/inspiration or wahyu/ilham) or indirect (through the medium of natural phenomena He created). Knowledge acquisition can be achieved through several approaches, including: practice (pengamalan), experience (pengalaman), rational (rasional using intellect/reason), emotional, and habituation (pembiasaan). Islamic scholars have classified knowledge based on its object of study and source. For instance, Ibn Sina categorized knowledge into three types: al-‘ilm al-ilahi (divine and metaphysical knowledge), al-ilm al-riyahi (mathematics), and il-‘ilm tabi’I (natural sciences). Al-Ghazali classified it into ilmu shariah and ilmu gayr al-shari’ah, which aligns with Ibn Khaldun’s division of ilmu naql (transmitted knowledge) and ilmu aqal (intellectual knowledge). This division is based on the object of study, not meant to be contradictory.

This study explores how Islamic epistemology can address the fragmentation and ethical challenges in contemporary Muslim societies. By emphasizing the integration of divine revelation and human reason, Islamic epistemology offers a balanced framework for intellectual and spiritual development. The core principles of mīzān (balance), maqāṣid al-sharīʿah (higher objectives of Islamic law), and tawhid (divine unity) form the foundation of Islamic ethical thought, guiding individuals and communities toward social harmony and moral responsibility. The study highlights how these principles can be applied to modern issues such as social justice, environmental sustainability, and the erosion of communal values. Through a comparative analysis, the research contrasts Islamic epistemology with Western ethical frameworks that prioritize individual autonomy, showing how Islamic approaches promote communal accountability and social cohesion. Empirical research, including surveys and interviews, reveals that Muslim communities view Islamic epistemology as a valuable tool for addressing contemporary ethical dilemmas and fostering unity. By revisiting classical Islamic scholars like Al-Farabi, Ibn Sina, and Al-Ghazali, the study provides a theoretical foundation for applying Islamic knowledge to modern day challenges. Additionally, the research examines how the principles of moral agency and personal responsibility in Islamic thought offer solutions to the weakening of ethical conduct in contemporary societies. The study concludes by recommending further research into the practical implementation of Islamic epistemological concepts in governance, education, and social structures to promote ethical and social reform. Integrating Islamic wisdom with modern ethical challenges can offer significant contributions to fostering a more harmonious, just, and ethically responsible global society.

This study examines the convergence between classical Islamic philosophy and contemporary digital theory, emphasizing how foundational Islamic concepts can respond to social fragmentation in post-digital Muslim societies. As digital technologies increasingly mediate religious learning, identity formation, and communal interaction, Muslim communities face growing challenges, including the weakening of social bonds and the decentralization of religious authority. Online platforms encourage individualized interpretations of faith and pluralistic expressions of religiosity, which, while expanding participation, often contribute to fragmented identities and diminished communal cohesion.Drawing upon core classical concepts such as ummah (community), akhlaq (ethics), and asabiyya (social solidarity), this research argues that Islamic intellectual heritage offers a normative framework capable of addressing these disruptions. These concepts underscore collective responsibility, moral discipline, and the cultivation of shared values as the foundation of a stable and just society. Using a qualitative approach grounded in textual analysis of classical Islamic scholarship and contemporary digital sociology, the study recontextualizes these principles within present-day digital environments.The findings suggest that adapting traditional values to online engagement can strengthen ethical conduct, mutual accountability, and constructive dialogue in virtual spaces. The notion of a “cyber ummah” further illustrates how transnational digital networks may foster solidarity across geographic and ideological boundaries. Ultimately, this study affirms the continuing relevance of classical Islamic philosophy in guiding the development of an inclusive, morally grounded, and socially cohesive digital society.

The digital era brings great opportunities for improving the quality of learning, but it also presents challenges in the form of dependence on gadgets, reduced social interaction, and the risk of exposure to age-inappropriate content. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach based on a literature review by analyzing various theoretical sources and previous research findings. The results of the study show that educators need to implement learning strategies that balance digital and non-digital activities so that all aspects of children's development cognitive, language, motor, socio-emotional, and moral can be optimally stimulated. Effective strategies include play-based learning, project-based learning, integration of educational digital media, collaboration with parents, and the creation of a learning environment rich in stimulation. By applying these strategies, children not only develop intellectually but also build character, creativity, and social skills. The key. Improving educators' digital literacy and active supervision from parents are the keys to the success of adaptive and humanistic early childhood education in the digital era.

Early Childhood Education (PAUD) plays a fundamental role in shaping children's character, moral values, and intellectual potential from an early age. However, many PAUD institutions in Indonesia still face serious challenges in management, where attention is focused more on operational sustainability than on improving educational quality. This study aims to describe the actual condition of PAUD institutions, analyze the causes of weak management, and identify the impact of operational orientation on educational quality. The method used is a literature study through analysis of various sources such as books, scientific journals, research reports, and government policies related to PAUD implementation. The results of the study indicate that weak management is caused by limited human resources, low managerial competence, minimal funding, weak planning, and a lack of supervision and community support. The impact is seen in the decline in educational quality and low public trust in PAUD institutions. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen quality-based management that emphasizes improving educator competence, community involvement, effective management of infrastructure, utilization of educational technology, and implementation of continuous evaluation. Professional and adaptive PAUD management is key to realizing superior, high-quality institutions that are relevant to the developmental needs of early childhood in the modern era.

Indonesia’s diversity is a valuable asset that must be wisely managed to prevent potential conflicts. Article 29 Paragraph 2 of the 1945 Constitution guarantees freedom of religion, in line with Islamic teachings on tolerance. Ma’had Al-Zaytun serves as an example of an Islamic educational institution that instills Islamic and national values in a moderate and inclusive manner, shaping students to live harmoniously within a pluralistic society. This study aims to determine the role of Ma’had Al-Zaytun in shaping attitudes of tolerance based on Article 29 Paragraph 2 of the 1945 Constitution and Islamic Law. The research employs a descriptive approach with a library research method. Primary data were obtained from Article 29 Paragraph 2 of the 1945 Constitution and Hukum Islam by Sofyan Hasan, while secondary data were derived from journals, theses, dissertations, documents, and previous relevant studies. The results show that Ma’had Al-Zaytun plays an important role in fostering tolerance through two perspectives. Based on Article 29 Paragraph 2 of the 1945 Constitution, Al-Zaytun creates an educational environment that values diversity through curriculum design, exemplary teachers, social activities, and intercultural dialogue. From the perspective of Islamic Law, tolerance is reflected through the preservation of religion and intellect, emphasizing peace, respect for other religions, and freedom of thought and dialogue. The combination of these perspectives produces students who are religious, open-minded, and socially responsible in a pluralistic national life.

This study aims to explore Al-Syarqawi’s concept of learning motivation and its relevance to the development of students’ interest in learning within the framework of modern Islamic education. The research adopts a qualitative approach with a library research method and applies content analysis to Al-Ta’allum: Al-Nadhariyat wa Al-Tatbiqiyyah and other relevant references. The results show that Al-Syarqawi places motivation as a fundamental condition that determines the continuity and success of the learning process. Motivation, both intrinsic and extrinsic, covers spiritual, psychological, social, and biological dimensions that guide students toward meaningful learning experiences. Al-Syarqawi emphasizes that spiritual motivation should be integrated into the educational process to create balance between intellectual development and moral-spiritual growth. His thought remains relevant to holistic and character-based education, especially in the context of the Merdeka Curriculum, which promotes student independence, creativity, and moral responsibility. Thus, this study contributes to enriching Islamic educational thought by providing an integrative perspective that harmonizes spiritual, psychological, and pedagogical values to enhance students’ motivation and learning engagement.

Scientific writing plays an important role in developing knowledge and shaping the intellectual character of students. Through academic writing, students not only learn to organize ideas systematically but are also trained to think critically, analytically, and reflectively. This study employs a literature review method to examine the concepts, processes, and originality of scientific work based on academic theories and established scholarly standards. The findings indicate that writing scientific papers is not merely an academic requirement but also a reflection of logical, objective, and ethical thinking. A high-quality scientific work must demonstrate originality, intellectual honesty, and the proper application of scientific methods—from problem formulation and data collection to analysis and conclusion. In addition, scientific writing should contribute to the development of knowledge and offer solutions to current issues in society. Therefore, higher education institutions need to strengthen students’ scientific literacy, academic writing skills, and understanding of research ethics. These efforts are essential for fostering an academic culture that upholds integrity, encourages innovation, and prepares young scholars to become responsible and competitive individuals.

This study aims to examine the contribution of educational psychology in the context of Christian education, particularly for educators, school principals, Christian Religious Education (CRE) teachers, Sunday school teachers, pastors, elders, and church servants. This theoretical study shows that educational psychology helps in understanding the characteristics of learners, optimizing teaching methods, building effective teacher-student relationships, and enhancing motivation and involvement in the learning and preaching process. The research method used is a descriptive qualitative approach, collecting data through a review of books, literature, journals, notes, and relevant reports. Educational psychology plays a significant role for all those involved in Christian education and ministry. CRE teachers and Sunday school teachers have a crucial role in instilling faith values in the younger generation by understanding the learning needs of children according to their cognitive and spiritual development stages. This enables them to deliver God's word in an engaging and meaningful way. Meanwhile, pastors, elders, and church servants require an understanding of educational psychology to carry out more wise pastoral ministry. Psychological understanding helps them provide spiritual guidance, counseling, and support for members who are struggling. Educational psychology also equips church servants to lead with empathy, listen with their hearts, and guide the congregation towards true spiritual restoration. The integration of educational psychology with Christian faith significantly impacts the improvement of learning and church ministry, producing individuals who are intellectually, emotionally, and spiritually balanced.

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia often face challenges in protecting their Intellectual Property Rights (IPR), particularly due to limited understanding of trademark, copyright, and product design registration. This lack of legal awareness reduces competitiveness and increases the risk of ownership disputes. This Community Service Program aimed to enhance the legal knowledge and awareness of MSMEs regarding IPR through an interactive counseling activity in Bacang Subdistrict, Pangkal Pinang City. The method included material presentation, interactive discussions, IPR registration simulations, and evaluation using pre-test and post-test. The activity was attended by 25 participants from various business sectors. The results showed a significant improvement in participants’ understanding, as evidenced by the average pre-test score of 43.08 increasing to 77.08 in the post-test, representing a 79% improvement. Beyond knowledge enhancement, participants also demonstrated a shift in mindset, with the majority expressing a commitment to initiate IPR registration steps. These findings confirm that practice-based counseling combined with interactive discussions is effective in increasing MSME legal awareness and supporting the protection of intellectual assets through IPR mechanisms

This research examines the complex dynamics of Islam-West interactions through a historical-analytical approach, focusing on the evolution of these relations from medieval encounters to contemporary developments. Using qualitative methods through extensive literature review and critical discourse analysis, this study analyzes the multifaceted nature of Islam-West relations across historical periods, contemporary contexts, and emerging paradigms of engagement. Findings reveal that Islam-West interactions have evolved through distinct historical phases: medieval encounters characterized by both intellectual exchange and military conflicts, colonial experiences that created lasting power asymmetries, and contemporary dynamics shaped by geopolitical tensions, migration patterns, and globalization. The research identifies three major contemporary challenges: persistent Orientalist and Islamophobic discourses, geopolitical conflicts intensifying civilizational narratives, and internal diversity within both civilizational spheres that complicates unified engagement. The study proposes a transformative model of Islam-West relations founded on shared ethical values, contextual understanding of religious texts, collaborative approaches to global challenges, and recognition of internal pluralism within both traditions. This research contributes to intercultural understanding by offering a nuanced historical perspective on Islam-West relations and establishing a theoretical framework for constructive engagement in an increasingly interconnected world

This training supports the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), specifically SDG 4 (Quality Education), SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth), and SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production). The community service activity follows the UNJ Community Service Strategic Plan (PPM Renstra) 2021–2025, focusing on education and environmental initiatives. A needs analysis conducted at SMAN 1 Muara Gembong, particularly in the school canteen, revealed that many food items sold lacked attention to health and hygiene, and did not optimize local food products. Based on this, training on personal hygiene education for the school community is needed to support school entrepreneurship programs. The training uses a practical approach integrated with digital technology through poster creation. Results showed that participants increased their awareness of health and hygiene, which improved the quality of their entrepreneurial products. The training included material on personal hygiene in entrepreneurship, with educational posters as the output. Evaluation was done using questionnaires, with data analyzed descriptively. Expected outcomes include the publication of an article, mass media exposure, YouTube video, partnership recognition, intellectual property rights registration, educational posters, and a profile of personal hygiene education for the school community in canteen management.

This community service activity focuses on the utilization of Talas Beneng (Xanthosoma undipes K. Koch), a tuberous plant native to Banten Province, as a healthy alternative food source free from gluten and casein. The program was implemented through the Holistic School Field Introduction (PLP) by students from Sultan Ageng Tirtayasa University at State Special School 02 Serang City. The method employed was qualitative, with a direct practice approach through training in preparing various processed products based on talas beneng, such as steamed cakes, brownies, cookies, and sticks. The activity involved three intellectually disabled students from junior and senior high school levels, along with PLP students and a culinary arts teacher. The primary objectives of the program were to enhance life skills, independence, and awareness of the importance of diversifying healthy local food sources. The results indicate an improvement in participants' abilities to recognize local food ingredients, process them into nutritionally valuable products, and strengthen collaboration between universities and schools in inclusive education. This program demonstrates that the utilization of local food resources can serve as an effective strategy to support food security, social empowerment, and holistic education.

This research is motivated by the shift in the meaning of modern education which tends to emphasize cognitive and materialistic aspects, while the spiritual and moral dimensions are increasingly marginalized. The purpose of this research is to reinterpret the nature of education , learning , and schooling from an Islamic educational perspective through a conceptual analysis of the integration of spiritual and scientific values. The research method used is qualitative with a library research approach , using secondary data obtained from various classical and contemporary literature related to Islamic educational philosophy. The results show that Islamic education views education as a process of forming manners and divine awareness, learning as a spiritual and intellectual journey towards divine truth, and schooling as a space of civilization that unites knowledge, faith, and charity. The integration of spiritual and scientific values is the main foundation in the development of a holistic and civilized Islamic education system, so that it is able to produce knowledgeable, faithful, and noble human beings in accordance with the true purpose of Islamic education.
