This study aims to analyze the implementation of Nusantara Islamic values ​​in multicultural education within the Integrated Islamic School (SIT) Al-Ftih environment. Nusantara Islam, as a religious concept characterized by moderation, tolerance, and accommodating local culture, has high relevance in developing education that respects diversity.Meanwhile, multicultural education emphasizes equality, inclusivity, and recognition of students' cultural identities.This research employed a qualitative approach with a case study method. Data collection techniques included interviews, observation, and documentation, and its validity was tested through triangulation. The study results indicate that the integration of Nusantara Islamic values ​​in SIT Al-Fatih Sukabumi remains partial, primarily limited to thematic religious activities and has not yet systematically addressed the curriculum, pedagogy, or school culture. Supporting factors for implementation include the availability of local culture, support from some teachers, and religious moderation policies. Inhibiting factors include a lack of teacher training, the dominance of Middle Eastern Islamic references, and a lack of multicultural evaluation instruments.This study concludes that a comprehensive implementation model that integrates Islam Nusantara into the curriculum, learning, and school culture is needed. Recommendations include developing standard operating procedures (SOPs) for religious moderation based on local wisdom, teacher training, and developing evaluation instruments for the internalization of Islam Nusantara values.

This study analyzes the role of Islamic leadership in enhancing educational innovation through the integration of managerial, spiritual, and collaborative values ​​in Islamic schools.

The results indicate that effective leadership in madrasas requires a balance between spiritual values, managerial competencies, and a collaborative culture that supports educational excellence. Furthermore, this study emphasizes the importance of educational supervision as a strategy for maintaining innovation and continuous improvement in Islamic educational institutions. An Islamic leadership approach that prioritizes integrity, professionalism, and knowledge sharing will foster an innovative and productive environment. Principals, as leaders, are not only responsible for academic success but must also be able to build a harmonious work climate, prioritize ethics, and continuously encourage positive changes in the learning process. Thus, this study contributes to the development of relevant leadership models in the context of Islamic education.

Understanding God in Christian education plays a crucial role in the moral formation of children, as the theological concept of God forms the foundation for values, character, and ethical actions, developed from an early age. In Christian education, the process of moral formation does not simply rely on rules or customs, but rather rests on the child's personal relationship with God as a loving, guiding Being, and the source of truth. This study uses qualitative methods with a library research approach to explore how the concept of God according to Christian theology can serve as a foundation for the comprehensive moral formation of children. The aim of this study is to analyze how God's attributes such as love, holiness, justice, and faithfulness can be applied in the educational process so that the moral values formed are not formalistic but grow from a deep spiritual awareness. The research findings show that a proper understanding of God helps children recognize moral standards rooted in God's character, develop ethical attitudes, and strengthen the internal drive to live according to His will. This research is also expected to contribute to Christian educators in developing theological, contextual, and effective learning strategies to continuously cultivate children's morality in accordance with the principles of the Christian faith.

This study elaborates on the concept of humanism in Islamic educational philosophy by highlighting in greater depth the role of humans as caliphs on earth. Humanism from an Islamic perspective not only focuses on humans as rational beings but also emphasizes the moral, spiritual, and social responsibilities inherent in the mandate of the caliphate. This study applies a qualitative approach with a literature study, where data is obtained from various written sources such as scientific articles and academic publications that discuss humanism in Islamic education and the concept of the human caliphate. The data collection process is carried out through searching, selecting, and organizing literature relevant to the focus of the study. The collected data are then analyzed using descriptive-qualitative techniques through the stages of simplifying information, grouping findings, and formulating systematic conclusions. The results of the study indicate that the position of humans as caliphs requires the development of intellectual, ethical, and spiritual potential in an integrated manner in the educational process. Therefore, Islamic education needs to be directed towards a holistic humanization process, which not only strengthens reasoning and social character but also fosters a transcendental awareness of human relationships with God, fellow humans, and nature. Thus, humanism in Islamic education is not secular, liberal, or anthropocentric, but is firmly rooted in divine values ​​that harmoniously unite the divine and human dimensions.

Reading literacy in early childhood is an important foundation for children's cognitive, language, and social development in subsequent educational stages. Literacy in early childhood can begin through letter recognition, fostering interest in printed materials, enriching vocabulary, and developing oral communication skills. At this stage, the initial skill that needs to be developed is the introduction of written language through reading activities tailored to the child's developmental characteristics. However, early childhood's ability to understand reading literacy shows significant differences, both in terms of interest, ability, and environmental support. This condition indicates that reading literacy understanding in early childhood is not evenly distributed. Therefore, this community service activity aims to provide reading literacy education to early childhood through a fun, interactive, and contextual approach. The activity methods include reading assistance, the use of visual media, and the active involvement of educators and parents. The results of the activity show an increase in reading interest, letter recognition skills, and children's positive responses to literacy activities. This activity is expected to be a sustainable effort to support the strengthening of reading literacy in early childhood education.

Humans, as creations of Allah SWT, are entrusted with the mandate to prosper the earth; therefore, divine revelations were sent down, culminating in the Qur’an as the ultimate guide for life. Islam, as a universal religion, emphasizes education as a means to achieve a complete and meaningful life. Islamic education, as defined by scholars such as al-Syaebani, Zakiah Drajat, and Muhaimin, is a process of transforming human behavior in personal, social, and environmental contexts based on Islamic values. This study employs a library research method with a thematic tafsir (maudhu’i) approach to examine the Qur’anic foundations of Islamic education. The findings indicate that verses such as QS. Al-‘Alaq [96]:1–5 highlight the importance of literacy as the starting point of education, QS. Al-Mujadalah [58]:11 affirms the elevated status of the learned, QS. An-Nahl [16]:78 emphasizes human innate potential, QS. Luqman [31]:12–19 stresses character education, and QS. Ali Imran [3]:190–191 underscores the integration of spirituality and intellect. Thus, the Qur’anic foundation provides theological, philosophical, and practical bases for the development of Islamic education aimed at forming insan kamil—individuals who are knowledgeable, faithful, and morally upright. QS. Luqman: 13–19 highlights education based on monotheism and morals, where Luqman advises his children to have faith, do good deeds and be patient. QS. Al-Māidah: 67 emphasizes trust and courage in conveying knowledge, as Allah commanded the Prophet to convey revelation without fear
