Education plays a crucial role in optimally developing and directing students' potential. In the current educational context, learning outcomes are assessed based on students' abilities to solve problems, reason, communicate, and demonstrate knowledge and attitudes. However, preliminary studies at MAN 1 Banjarmasin revealed that only 62.85% of the XI Agama class students met the Minimum Completeness Criteria (KKM) of 75 in Fiqh subjects, while the rest failed. This study aimed to improve learning outcomes in the topic of Mawaris by using an Android-based learning media, the "Kalkulator Waris" application. This Classroom Action Research (CAR) was conducted through two cycles following the model proposed by Arikunto, comprising planning, action, observation, and reflection phases. In the first cycle, the average student score was 73.63 with a 62.85% success rate. After refining the learning process, the second cycle showed significant improvement: the average score rose to 88.17, and all students (100%) achieved mastery. The use of the "Kalkulator Waris" application facilitated students’ understanding of complex inheritance calculations, enhanced learning engagement, and fostered a more active, creative, and problem-solving learning environment. The findings suggest that appropriate use of Android-based educational applications can significantly enhance learning outcomes, particularly in complex subjects like Islamic inheritance law.

Inclusive education guarantees the learning rights of children with special needs, including their understanding of Islamic values in public schools.

This study aims to determine the form of students' worship practices and how they understand and appreciate the worship they do. The research method used is field research with a qualitative approach. Data analysis techniques include the process of data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. Data validity testing is carried out through triangulation. The results of the study indicate that the worship taught and accustomed to students includes prayer, fasting, daily prayers, and reading and memorizing the Qur'an. Students have understood the laws of worship such as obligatory, sunnah, sin, reward, heaven, and hell. However, their understanding of the goals and benefits of the worship they carry out is still limited. The practice of worship has become a daily habit and shows a good level of obedience, indicating that the practice of worship has formed a personality (moral actions). However, the aspects of understanding (moral knowledge) and deep awareness (moral feelings) still need to be improved.

This study is a Classroom Action Research (CAR) which aims to obtain an overview of the objectives of the application of the question and answer method as an effort to increase student activity in teaching and learning activities (KBM) in the subject of Fiqh in class X MIPA 3 MA Assathi' Sedan in the 2018/2019 academic year.

This study discusses the phenomenon of the decreasing number of worshipers in mosques and prayer rooms in Kenagarian Situjuah Gadang, Situjuah Limo Nagari District, Lima Puluh Kota Regency. Although facilities and infrastructure have developed rapidly, the presence of the community in congregational worship activities is actually decreasing. This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive approach, involving observation, interviews with mosque and prayer room administrators, and field documentation. The results of the study indicate that several main factors that cause this condition include the busyness of the community in work, lack of understanding of religion, minimal role of community leaders and parents as role models, and lack of mosque programs that attract worshipers. In addition, the influence of social media also contributes to the decreasing interest of the community in coming to the mosque. To overcome this problem, it is recommended that there be policies that encourage congregational prayer, increase the role of schools in religious education, and strengthen Islamic preaching and guidance activities. With the right strategy, it is hoped that mosques and prayer rooms can again become centers of worship and active religious activities in the community

The human brain is a highly complex system whose dynamics cannot be fully understood through a single disciplinary perspective. This study aims to examine the synchronization of neural networks by combining theoretical physics, neuroscience, and computational methods. The research employed two main approaches: computer simulations based on the Kuramoto oscillator model and empirical analysis of electroencephalography (EEG) data. The simulation modeled neural activity using a graph-theoretical framework, while EEG analysis provided time-series data of brainwave patterns. Both results were compared to validate the accuracy of the model. Findings show that synchronization levels from simulations closely resemble EEG data, with only minor differences across various frequency conditions. Notably, both results revealed a tendency for stronger synchronization at higher frequencies, indicating a collective mechanism of neural coordination. These results demonstrate that physics-based models can effectively represent biological phenomena, while empirical data ensures that the findings remain grounded in real neural dynamics. The integration of theoretical and empirical approaches highlights the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration in studying brain complexity. This research not only contributes to a deeper scientific understanding but also opens potential applications in neuroscience, clinical diagnostics, and computational modeling. Overall, the study reinforces that interdisciplinary frameworks are essential for bridging abstract theories with biological realities.

This study explores the potential of water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) as a bioelectricity source through Plant-Microbial Fuel Cell (PMFC) technology. The research aimed to evaluate the ability of water hyacinth to generate stable electrical energy when integrated with electrodes in a controlled laboratory setting. The method applied was an experimental laboratory design, where water hyacinths were placed in containers filled with water, equipped with anode and cathode electrodes, and connected to a voltmeter and ammeter for continuous monitoring. Observations were carried out for 72 hours with periodic recording of voltage and current values. The findings show that water hyacinth can generate measurable electricity, with voltage ranging from 0.25 V to 0.32 V and current between 0.18 mA and 0.24 mA, indicating the potential of this plant to produce renewable energy. Moreover, the results reveal that the generated electricity was relatively stable during the observation period, though variations occurred due to environmental conditions. The implications of this research suggest that water hyacinth, often considered a weed, can be utilized not only for energy production but also as part of ecological management programs. This dual function makes PMFC technology a promising alternative for sustainable energy development, especially in rural or remote areas where access to conventional electricity remains limited.
