The 'Reading Corner' program in Turunrejo Village, Kendal District, has demonstrated an increase in children's reading interest and literacy skills. Observations and interviews with children and parents reveal that many children who initially rarely read are now more active using the reading corner, with some showing significant improvement in their reading and comprehension abilities. Despite these clear advances, challenges such as budget constraints, a lack of diverse book collections, and insufficient local government support persist. The considerable distance from the city center also affects the regular procurement of new books. Several studies highlight that similar challenges are faced by literacy programs in remote areas. Additional support, training for managers, and enhanced resources are necessary to maximize the benefits of the 'Reading Corner' program for children.

By analyzing and comparing the teachings of Islam, Christianity, Hinduism, and Buddhism, the study identifies key environmental ethics principles that are shared across these religious traditions, such as non-violence, the sacredness of nature, and the principle of moderation in resource use. Despite theological and doctrinal differences, these shared values provide a strong philosophical and moral foundation for fostering cooperation among religious communities in addressing global environmental challenges.

The study examines the theological meaning of the symbols of water, wine, and blood in the Gospel of John and their interrelation within the perspective of Catholic theology. Grounded in John’s distinctive use of symbolism as a medium of revelation, the study treats these three symbols not as isolated narrative elements but as an integrated theological sequence. The study employs a qualitative method, utilizing a literature-based approach and biblical-theological exegesis of key texts. The findings indicate that water signifies the renewal of life originating from divine grace and is closely associated with Baptism; wine expresses joy and abundance within the new covenant, finding its resonance in the Eucharist; while blood marks the culmination of divine love manifested in Christ’s redemptive sacrifice. Together, these symbols form a progressive dynamic of revelation: from renewal, to communion, and ultimately to redemption. In the light of sacramental theology, these symbols not only reveal the identity of Jesus as the incarnate Word but also mediate a concrete experience of faith within the life of the Church. Thus, the Gospel of John demonstrates that God’s salvific work unfolds in an integral and continuous manner, remaining relevant for the contemporary practice of Christian faith.  

The paradoxical phenomenon of domestic violence (KDRT) within the ideal construct of Islamic marriage, supported by the prevalence of violence against women in Indonesia, forms the empirical basis of this research. Fikih mubadalah, as an interpretative framework that emphasizes the principle of reciprocity in understanding religious texts, and the Law Number 12 of 2022 concerning Sexual Violence Crimes (UU TPKS), as a juridical instrument providing comprehensive protection for victims of sexual violence, constitute the central conceptual elements of this study. This research focuses on the analysis of the implementation of UU TPKS and the fikih mubadalah paradigm within the pedagogical context of the Islamic Marriage Jurisprudence subject in the eleventh grade of Social Sciences at Madrasah Aliyah Negeri (MAN) 1 Banjarmasin. The research method employed is descriptive qualitative, with data collection techniques including participatory observation, semi-structured interviews with students and educators, and documentary analysis of learning artifacts. The research findings indicate that the integration of the fikih mubadalah concept and the substance of UU TPKS in the learning process significantly enhances students' understanding of the essence of egalitarian marital relations and the urgency of legal protection against gender-based violence. Students are able to identify manifestations of gender inequality in marriage case studies and internalize the importance of equality and legal protection guarantees. Nevertheless, heterogeneity in the level of understanding is still identified in a small portion of the sample population. The conclusion of this research is that the internalization of fikih mubadalah and UU TPKS within the Islamic Marriage Jurisprudence curriculum effectively stimulates students' critical awareness of the importance of just marital relations and the imperative of preventing acts of violence. The application of a contextual and participatory pedagogical approach proves to be positively correlated with an increase in students' understanding. This research recommends the adoption of a similar integrative approach in the religious education curriculum as a strategic effort to shape a young generation that possesses legal awareness, a fair gender perspective, and the capacity to build harmonious and violence-free family institutions.

The aim of character education in Islamic religious education is to form a person with noble character, because noble character is the basis of all goodness.
