Publication Search

This research aims to develop an E-Catalog Information System for the Library of SMPK St. Yohanes Wewewa Barat as a digital platform that provides students and teachers with fast, accurate, and efficient access to book collection information. The system is designed to replace the previous manual book search process, which often caused delays and reduced the effectiveness of library services. The development of this system applies The Model-View-Controller (MVC) method structures the system by dividing it into three distinct parts: the model, the view, and the controller, each with its own specific function resulting in a structured architecture that is easier to manage, maintain, and improve. This method was chosen because it supports modular development and provides flexibility for future system enhancements. The results of this study show that the developed e-catalog system functions properly and performs well according to the intended design. All main features, including book searching, book detail display, and book data management, operate optimally without significant issues. Moreover, the system helps improve the efficiency of library services and enhances the user experience in accessing digital book information.

This study examines the legal provisions regarding interfaith marriage in Indonesia from the perspective of Islamic law and national law. The focus lies on the differences and points of convergence between the two legal systems in assessing the validity of marriages conducted between couples of different religions. This research employs a library research method with a normative-comparative approach, analyzing primary sources such as the Qur’an, Hadith, the Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI), Law Number 1 of 1974 on Marriage, as well as relevant court decisions. The results show that Islamic law explicitly prohibits interfaith marriage, particularly between a Muslim woman and a non-Muslim man, as it contradicts the principles of faith and the objectives of marriage in Islam. Meanwhile, national law through Law Number 1 of 1974 stipulates that a marriage is valid only if conducted according to the laws of each religion and belief, which implicitly rejects the legality of interfaith marriage. In practice, however, some individuals seek legal loopholes through human rights interpretations or by registering their marriages abroad. Therefore, both Islamic and national law share the same goal: to preserve the sanctity of marriage and maintain social harmony based on the divine values upheld by the Indonesian nation.

The prohibition of proposing to a woman during her ‘iddah period constitutes an Islamic legal provision that is firmly grounded in the normative foundations of the Qur’an and fiqh. This provision aims to preserve the clarity of lineage, protect women’s dignity, and maintain order within the legal framework of marriage. This article examines, from a normative perspective, the prohibition of proposing to a woman during her ‘iddah according to the Shāfi‘ī school of law. The study employs a normative legal research method with a qualitative approach through library research, drawing upon the Qur’an, hadith, and authoritative (mu‘tabar) Shāfi‘ī fiqh texts. The findings indicate that the Shāfi‘ī school strictly prohibits explicit proposals to women during all types of ‘iddah, including ‘iddah resulting from revocable divorce (ṭalāq raj‘ī), irrevocable divorce (ṭalāq bā’in), annulment (fasakh), and death. As for indirect proposals (ta‘rīḍ), they are permitted only for women whose ‘iddah is not accompanied by a right of reconciliation, such as ‘iddah due to death and ‘iddah of ṭalāq bā’in, while remaining prohibited during ‘iddah raj‘ī. This legal ruling reflects the prudence of the Shāfi‘ī school in preventing the occurrence of invalid marriage contracts and affirms the function of ‘iddah as an instrument of Islamic legal regulation rather than merely a biological waiting period.

Leadership is a fundamental aspect of human life that greatly determines the direction and quality of a society. The Qur’an, as the primary source of Islamic teachings, provides clear guidance regarding the criteria of an ideal leader based on divine values. This study aims to examine leadership criteria in the Qur’an through an analysis of Q.S. Al-Anbiya verse 73, Q.S. As-Sajdah verse 24, and Q.S. Yusuf verse 55. The research employs a library research method by analyzing the lexical meanings (mufradat), the historical context of the verses, and the interpretations of prominent mufassirs such as Buya Hamka and Muhammad Quraish Shihab. The findings indicate that leadership from a Qur’anic perspective is not merely oriented toward power, but is a great trust (amanah) that requires moral and spiritual integrity, patience, faith, trustworthiness, and competence. These verses emphasize that an ideal leader is one who guides others according to Allah’s command, possesses patience and strong conviction in His revelations, and is knowledgeable and trustworthy in managing public affairs. This study is relevant to contemporary conditions, particularly in addressing the leadership crisis marked by the abuse of power and weakened integrity. Therefore, understanding leadership criteria in the Qur’an is expected to serve as a foundation for Muslims in selecting and preparing leaders who are ethical, responsible, and morally upright.

This study is motivated by the context of religiosity in later life, which is characterized by various forms of decline, both emotional and spiritual, that may hinder the religious practices of older adults. The study aims to examine the condition of religiosity in the elderly phase. The main focus of this research is to explore and analyze the definition of old age, the characteristics of religiosity in later life, to identify religious problems commonly experienced by the elderly, and to examine the well-being of religious life during old age. This study employs a qualitative research method using a library research approach. The findings indicate that various challenges encountered in old age, such as anxiety, fear of death, and other psychological pressures, can be addressed through religious practices. Acts of worship, prayer, and spiritual reflection are able to provide inner peace, enhance the meaning of life, foster social harmony, cultivate acceptance of life’s realities, and help older adults respond to challenges in accordance with contemporary developments.

This study examines the transformation of Islamic da'wah institutions in Indonesia through social entrepreneurship innovation, focusing on the Darunnajah Islamic Boarding School in Jakarta. The aim is to understand how the Islamic boarding school adapts to socio-economic changes without abandoning its da'wah values. This study uses a library research methodology, referring to Kurt Lewin's (1947) theory of change, which consists of three stages: Unfreezing, Changing, and Refreezing. The findings indicate that during the Unfreezing phase, Darunnajah raises students' awareness of the need to develop traditional da'wah models. During the Changing phase, the Islamic boarding school implements social entrepreneurship innovations through various structures, such as cooperatives, Hajj travel agencies, and agribusiness. Finally, during the Refreezing phase, the values ​​of independence and professionalism are institutionalized within the boarding school's culture. Key factors contributing to its success are visionary leadership, a culture of student autonomy, and alumni support; obstacles encountered include internal resistance and a lack of resources. Overall, Darunnajah has succeeded in becoming an adaptive and productive model of modern da'wah that remains rooted in Islamic values.

Student resilience is an essential capacity for coping with academic, social, and psychological challenges in educational settings. One of the external factors that plays a significant role in fostering resilience is social support. This study aims to analyze the role of social support in enhancing student resilience from the perspective of Islamic educational psychology. This research employed a library research approach by reviewing and synthesizing relevant journal articles and scholarly books published between 2021 and 2025 related to social support, student resilience, and Islamic educational psychology. Data were analyzed using content analysis and thematic analysis of previous research findings. The results indicate that social support derived from family, teachers, peers, and the school environment functions as a protective factor that enhances students’ adaptive abilities, emotional regulation, and resilience in facing academic pressures. From the perspective of Islamic educational psychology, social support is integrated with Islamic values such as ukhuwah (brotherhood), ta’awun (mutual assistance), sabr (patience), and tawakkul (trust in God), which strengthen students’ resilience in a holistic manner, encompassing both psychological and spiritual dimensions. This study contributes theoretically to the development of Islamic educational psychology and provides practical implications for educational institutions in creating supportive and value-based learning environments.

The rapid development of digital technology, particularly Artificial Intelligence (AI), has significantly influenced educational practices, including Islamic Religious Education (PAI). A major issue lies in how AI can be implemented effectively without undermining the spiritual, moral, and character-building values that are central to Islamic education. This study aims to examine the implementation of Artificial Intelligence in Islamic Religious Education learning in the era of school digitalization, focusing on its concepts, forms of application, teachers’ roles, benefits, as well as challenges and ethical considerations. This research employs a qualitative library research method. Data were collected from reputable academic journals, scholarly books, proceedings, and relevant official documents, and analyzed using content analysis techniques through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that AI has substantial potential to enhance PAI learning through personalized learning systems, adaptive learning media, and data-driven assessments. However, its implementation requires strong teacher supervision, adequate digital literacy, and alignment with Islamic values to prevent the marginalization of teachers’ moral and spiritual roles. In conclusion, Artificial Intelligence serves as a supportive tool in Islamic Religious Education and must be applied wisely, ethically, and in accordance with the fundamental objectives of Islamic education.

This study examines Fazlur Rahman’s double movement paradigm as a methodological framework for renewing contemporary Islamic thought. The background of this research lies in the ongoing crisis of Islamic epistemology, marked by the dominance of textual-literal interpretations that are detached from historical context, as well as modernist approaches that often lack strong Islamic methodological foundations. This condition has weakened the ability of Islamic thought to respond to modern social, ethical, and intellectual challenges. This research employs a qualitative approach using library research. The primary data consist of Fazlur Rahman’s major works, including Islam, Major Themes of the Qur’an, and Islam and Modernity, while secondary data are drawn from academic journals, books, theses, and previous studies discussing his thought. Data were analyzed through content analysis and interpretative analysis to identify key concepts, methodological patterns, and their implications for contemporary Islamic thought. The findings show that Fazlur Rahman conceptualizes the Qur’an as a source of universal moral values rather than a static legal code. His double movement method emphasizes understanding the Qur’anic text within its historical context and reapplying its moral principles to contemporary realities. This approach positions Rahman within the framework of Islamic neo-modernism, bridging classical Islamic tradition and modern intellectual demands. The study concludes that the double movement paradigm offers a relevant epistemological foundation for renewing Islamic thought, particularly in Qur’anic interpretation, Islamic law, and Islamic education, by promoting contextual, ethical, and critical reasoning.

A problem that is often debated by both the western and eastern world is the problem of determining the truth of a scientific field or theory. In western science, a thought emerged from a philosopher, namely the theory of falsification put forward by Karl Raymond Popper. In his theory Popper argues that the truth of a science is not determined through justification (verification), but through refuting the propositions that science itself builds (falsification). The study of Popper's falsification has been very widely published and discussed in various writings, especially in Islamic studies and science (science). In this article, the author tries to briefly describe the urgency of Karl R. Popper's thought in the academic field. The method used in writing this article is library research (literature review), using relevant documents, journals, and research. Through this research, it is known that the application of Karl Raimund Popeer's theory of falsification is very important in the academic field. This is evidenced by the concept of falsification which is used to determine the scientific knowledge. In addition, the concept of falsification was used long before Popper introduced the theory. One of them is used by the Muslim philosopher Imam Al-Gazali in defending and proving his arguments and thoughts. In the development of scientific methods, the principle of falsification plays an important role in strengthening scientific theory because it serves as evidence to disqualify other irrelevant theories.

The purpose of this research is to find out the legal basis in the science of hadith or Islamic law and positive law related to DNA testing which is used as a strong argument for determining the legal certainty of child lineage and how to resolve the problem of child lineage in Indonesia and Islam. In the research process used is normative research and library research with a legislative approach taken from positive law and Islamic legal sources, namely the Qur'an and the hadith approach as a basis for legal theory. The resulting research study that DNA testing can resolve the uncertainty of abak lineage and DNA test results can be used as proof of determining a child's lineage to his father. In the teachings or regulations of Islamic law, there are four methods used in determining lineage in accordance with the terms and conditions of the application of the four methods, namely; al-firasy, al-iqrar, al-bayyinah, and al-Qiyafah. With the development of today's technology, the four methods have been developed through cutting-edge technology as a medium for tracing a person's lineage to obtain justice and benefit. From a positive Indonesian legal perspective, DNA testing has been recognized as a means of proving parentage. Therefore, children born as victims of rape, marriages not officially registered by the Office of Religious Affairs (KUA), and marriages that took place secretly (in other words, under the table) can claim their rights as children, including child support and parentage, from their father.

This study discusses the development of narratives on Islamic morality and history through interactive audiovisual media as an effort to address the learning needs of the digital generation that demands high engagement, engaging visualizations, and immersive learning experiences. Based on library research methods, this study examines literature on narrative pedagogy, Islamic historiography, and digital learning technology to formulate a narrative model that integrates cognitive, affective, and interactive aspects. The review shows that although audiovisual media and technologies such as AR/VR have been proven to increase student motivation and understanding, studies specifically combining narratives on morality, Islamic history, and interactivity design are still limited. This study proposes a participatory narrative model based on interactive audiovisual through choice-based storytelling, reflective quizzes, and micro-scenarios that can strengthen historical understanding while internalizing moral values. The analysis shows that interactive media serves not only as a means of conveying information but also as a space for moral experience that allows students to build empathy, reflection, and value awareness. This study provides theoretical contributions to the development of narrative pedagogy in Islamic education and provides practical recommendations regarding media design, teacher readiness, and infrastructure support for the implementation of more effective and meaningful digital learning.

The era of globalization presents serious challenges for Christian Religious Education (PAK) through the currents of value relativism, consumerism, and digital influences that threaten the formation of the spiritual character of the younger generation. This study aims to analyze strategies for integrating spiritual values ​​into Christian Religious Education (PAK) to ensure its relevance and effectiveness in facing the dynamics of the times, with a focus on a holistic approach that combines a contextual curriculum, hybrid learning media, faith-based digital literacy, and strengthening teacher competencies. The research method uses a qualitative descriptive approach based on library research through thematic content analysis of books, scientific journals, and related literature. The results indicate that effective integration of spiritual values ​​through strategies such as interactive digital learning, school-church-family collaboration, and systematic evaluation produces students who are strong in faith, critical of global influences, and ethical in character. In conclusion, the need for ongoing synergy to shape a generation of Christians who are adaptive and imbued with integrity in the era of globalization is emphasized.

This study traces the historical and intellectual processes that enabled Plato's ideas to enter the tradition of Islamic philosophy and subsequently influence Islamic boarding school education in Indonesia. Starting from the increasing openness of Islamic boarding schools to classical humanities, this study aims to understand how Plato's ideas were transferred from the context of Ancient Greece, reinterpreted by Muslim philosophers, and integrated into traditional learning practices. Using a library-based qualitative approach with hermeneutic, historical-intellectual, and thematic methods, this study analyzes the transmission pathways that include the Abbasid translation movement, the interpretive contributions of figures such as Al-Kindi, Al-Farabi, and Ibn Sina, and the absorption of concepts through literature on ethics, logic, and adab. The findings show that Islamic boarding schools did not inherit Plato's ideas directly, but rather through the Islamic philosophical tradition that reshaped Platonic elements to fit the Islamic intellectual framework. Concepts related to spiritual education, character building, and ethical rationality are in line with the orientation of tazkiyah al-nafs, which is the foundation of Islamic boarding school pedagogy. This study confirms that the relationship between Plato's ideas and Islamic education emerged through a long creative process, not merely a transfer of texts. Practically, these findings highlight opportunities to develop a more reflective, critical, and virtue-centered pesantren curriculum, while encouraging further ethnographic research to explore how the classical philosophical heritage is reinterpreted in contemporary santri learning practices.

This study examines the ideas of Ziauddin Sardar and Azyumardi Azra in three major areas: Islamic education, digital religious authority, and religious moderation. Using a library research approach, this article analyzes how Sardar’s Postnormal Times (PNT) framework explains global complexity, chaos, and contradictions that shape the future of Islamic thought and education. Meanwhile, Azra’s concept of Islam Nusantara and wasathiyah provides a historical and cultural foundation for constructing moderate Islamic identity in Indonesia. Findings indicate that Sardar emphasizes adaptive education oriented toward future literacy, while Azra highlights the integration of tradition, modernity, and local culture. In the context of digital authority, Sardar views the transformation as a structural effect of postnormal conditions driven by algorithmic systems, while Azra stresses the need to strengthen scholarly legitimacy based on sanad, institutions, and ethical guidance. Both perspectives converge on the importance of moderation. Sardar presents moderation as a strategy to manage global complexity, whereas Azra positions wasathiyah as the inherent identity of Islam in the archipelago. This study concludes that synthesizing both frameworks can strengthen Islamic education, stabilize digital religious authority, and reinforce Indonesia’s moderate Islamic identity in responding to contemporary challenges.

Pancasila, as the foundation of the state and the nation's philosophy of life, plays a crucial role in building the character of the younger generation, including students as agents of change. This study aims to analyze how the application of Pancasila values ​​is manifested in student behavior on campus. The method used is library research, examining various journal articles, books, and academic references related to student behavior and the practice of Pancasila values. The research findings reveal that students generally have a good understanding of Pancasila values. Values ​​such as respect, mutual assistance, equality, religiousness, and unity are recognized and accepted as guidelines for behavior on campus. However, the level of implementation is still not optimal and tends to vary between universities. Therefore, universities need to make continuous efforts to instill Pancasila values ​​through academic and non-academic activities that can strengthen students' understanding of Pancasila and strengthen its application in campus life to be more optimal and equitable.

This study aims to analyze in depth the moral values ​​contained in Surah Luqman verses 14–15 based on M. Quraish Shihab's Tafsir Al-Mishbah and their relevance in shaping the character of adolescents in the modern era. The research method used is library research with the tafsir munasabah approach, namely examining the relationship between the meanings of verses contextually and thematically. The main data source comes from Tafsir Al-Mishbah, supported by relevant tafsir literature and character education studies. The results of the study show that in Tafsir Al-Mishbah, Surah Luqman verses 14–15 contain six main moral values, namely birrul wâlidayn (devotion to parents), an attitude of gratitude to Allah and both parents, proportional obedience and not violating the principle of monotheism, gentleness and ethics in responding to differences, orientation to the afterlife, and exemplary behavior. These values ​​have strong relevance to efforts to shape the character of adolescents, especially in facing moral challenges in the digital era. The implementation of this teaching is considered strategic as a fundamental solution to overcome various youth problems, such as cyberbullying, ethical crises, and moral decadence, by instilling religious attitudes, empathy, and social responsibility.

Halal certification is a primary requirement for Muslims when choosing food. This requirement is stated in Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 168 of the Quran, which commands Muslims to consume food that is halal and wholesome. Halal certification is assessed not only by the ingredients used but also by the entire production process, from processing and raw material use, transportation, to sales and consumption methods. In Indonesia, the development of halal products continues to grow rapidly in line with the large Muslim population. However, public understanding of halal certification, particularly for food and beverage products, remains relatively low. Based on this situation, this study examines the impact of halal certification on the marketing strategies of MSMEs in the food sector. This research seeks to answer two main questions: first, to what extent do MSMEs understand the importance of halal certification? and second, does the existence of halal certification influence consumer purchasing interest? The study used a library method, reviewing a variety of relevant literature, and an empirical approach to obtain data directly from the public.

Interreligious dialogue in contemporary plural societies faces serious challenges, particularly due to differences in the use and interpretation of religious language, which is often understood in a monolithic and decontextualized manner. Religious language is frequently reduced to doctrinal propositions debated through logical arguments, thereby neglecting the form of life from which it emerges. This study aims to analyze the transformation of Ludwig Wittgenstein’s thought from the picture theory presented in Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus to the concept of language games developed in Philosophical Investigations, as well as its implications for understanding religious language and contemporary interreligious dialogue. This research employs a qualitative approach using a library research method through philosophical-conceptual analysis of Wittgenstein’s major works and relevant secondary literature. The findings indicate that the concept of language games allows religious language to be understood as a social practice with internal rules and contextual meanings, rather than as metaphysical propositions subject to empirical-logical verification. In the context of interreligious dialogue, this approach helps explain differences in the meanings of religious terms such as “salvation” or “God” without treating them as absolute logical contradictions. By viewing religious language as part of language games rooted in distinct forms of life, interreligious dialogue can be directed toward mutual understanding and respect for diversity rather than the pursuit of theological uniformity.
