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 aims to construct a comprehensive concept of Quranic Andragogy based on the profound educational interaction between Prophet Musa a.s. and Prophet Khidir a.s. as narrated in Surah Al-Kahfi. Employing systematic library research with a thematic exegesis approach and rigorous content analysis, this research synthesizes Malcolm Knowles’ andragogy theory with core Islamic values and principles. The findings reveal that Quranic Andragogy transcends conventional Western pragmatism by effectively integrating intellectual autonomy with deep spiritual humility (tawadhu). The narrative illustrates three fundamental pillars of this pedagogical model: the urgency of cultivating internal motivation (the need to know), which is driven by a conscious willingness to 'unlearn' ego and preconceptions; the careful management of cognitive conflict within experiential learning processes; and the consistent implementation of a disciplined, ethically guided learning contract. It is concluded that adult education in Islam requires a careful balance between critical reasoning, reflective practice, and spiritual obedience in order to achieve holistic self-transformation that extends beyond the mere transfer of knowledge and information, fostering both intellectual and moral development in learners.

This study aims to examine the concept of intellectual intelligence from the perspective of the Qur’an and its implications for the development of contemporary Islamic education. The background of this research is rooted in the tendency of modern education to emphasize rational–cognitive aspects while neglecting spiritual and moral dimensions. This study employs a qualitative approach with a library research design, utilizing thematic analysis of Qur’anic verses, classical and contemporary tafsir works, and relevant scholarly literature. The findings reveal that intellectual intelligence in the Qur’an is understood holistically through the concepts of ‘aql, tafakkur, tadabbur, and tafaqquh, and is represented in the characteristics of ulul albab, qaum ya‘qilun, and ulul abshar. Qur’anic intellectual intelligence is not value-neutral but is integrated with God-consciousness and moral responsibility. The implications of this study emphasize the need for Islamic education to develop intellectual capacity in a critical, reflective, and value-oriented manner through dialogical learning, integrative curricula, and the role of educators as intellectual and moral facilitators. These findings reinforce the urgency of renewing the paradigm of Islamic education that balances intellect, faith, and morality.

This study presents a comparative analysis of the practice of talaqqi in the science of qira’at in Indonesia and Syria, two significant regions in the transmission of sanad-based Qur’anic recitation. Based on the premise that talaqqi is the primary method for preserving the authenticity of the Qur’an—yet its standards, patterns, and scholarly framework have developed differently across regions this research aims to identify the similarities and differences in requirements, implementation methods, stages, and reference texts used in talaqqi qira’at in both countries. The study employs a descriptive qualitative approach with a multi-site design: in Indonesia at Pondok Pesantren Al-Munawwir Krapyak, Yanbu’ul Qur’an Kudus, Bustanu ‘Usysyaqil Qur’an Demak, and Al-Hikmah Semarang; and in Syria at Muhyiddin Ibn ‘Arabi Mosque, Mujamma’ Sheikh Ahmad Kuftaro, Maghribiyah Mosque, and the Qira’at Department of Bilad Syam University, Al-Fath al-Islamy branch. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews, observation, and document analysis, and then analyzed descriptively and analytically. The findings reveal that both countries require memorization of the Qur’an (30 juz), conduct talaqqi through face-to-face musyafahah, follow the sequential stages of ifrād jam‘ (including mufradat, jama‘ shughra, and jama‘ kubra), and refer to the Syāthibiyyah poem as a foundational text. However, Indonesia tends to focus on qira’at sab‘ah within the pesantren system, with simpler entry requirements and reliance on the practical manual Faidhul Barokat. In contrast, Syria emphasizes qira’at ‘asyrah with stricter selection standards, implementation in mosques and universities, recitations accompanied by evidence from Syāthibiyyah and ad-Durrah, and extensive support from various commentaries and jam‘ al-qirā’āt muṣḥafs. These findings reinforce the role of Indonesian pesantren in the global qira’at tradition and provide a basis for evaluating and developing a more integrative talaqqi qira’at curriculum that balances theoretical understanding and practical mastery.

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.

The development of Society 5.0 requires Islamic Religious Education (PAI) learning in MTs to transform into a more adaptive model that integrates technology while maintaining a focus on character formation. This article aims to identify the main problems in PAI learning at MTs and analyze the challenges and threats arising from digital educational changes. This study employs a descriptive qualitative approach through literature review, educational policy analysis, and synthesized findings from the last five years. The results show that the central issues include teachers' digital competence, infrastructure readiness, value degradation due to digital distraction, and the mismatch between students’ character needs and technology-based learning demands. Society 5.0 offers opportunities for technology integration but also brings threats such as misinformation, digital dependency, and weakened value internalization when learning is not holistically designed. This study provides strategic recommendations for teachers, schools, and policymakers to strengthen PAI learning quality relevant to digital-era needs.  

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 axiology of science is a branch of the philosophy of science that examines the values, goals, and orientations of scientific knowledge utilization. This article aims to philosophically analyze the concept of the axiology of science from Western and Islamic perspectives, highlighting their fundamental similarities and differences. This research employs a qualitative method, employing a literature review approach with descriptive-analytical and comparative methods. The results of the study indicate that in the Western philosophical tradition, the axiology of science has developed historically, from the search for the highest good in classical times to the tendency towards value relativism in the modern and postmodern eras, with human rationality as the center of value determination. Meanwhile, the axiology of science in Islam is rooted in monotheism as a metaphysical foundation, with revelation as the primary source of values ​​and reason serving as an interpretive instrument. Despite paradigmatic differences, both traditions affirm that science cannot be separated from moral dimensions and ethical responsibility. This article concludes that dialogue between Western and Islamic axiology is essential for building a scientific paradigm that is not only rational and progressive, but also moral, just, and oriented towards the welfare of humanity.

Islamic financing has become an alternative for employees of strategic partner institutions who require fast and flexible financial solutions. However, participation remains low due to suboptimal promotion and price perceptions. This study aims to analyze the influence of promotion and price on employee financing decisions, both directly, indirectly, and in total. The method use was quantitative ex post facto with data collected through questionnaires from 40 respondents, and the analysis was conducted using SEM-PLS with the assistance of SmartPLS 4.0. The results indicate that promotion and price have a positive and significant effect on financing decisions, both directly and indirectly. Directly, promotion affects financing decisions with a coefficient of 0.442 (t = 2.121; p = 0.034), while price shows a coefficient of 0.445 (t = 2.040; p = 0.041). Indirectly, promotion influences financing decisions through price with a coefficient of 0.381 (t = 1.979; p = 0.048). In total, promotion and price strongly influence financing decisions, with coefficients of 0.823 (t = 15.541; p = 0.000) for promotion and 0.445 (t = 2.040; p = 0.041) for price. These findings emphasize that intensive promotion and competitive pricing can significantly enhance the financing decisions of employees at strategic partner institutions of PT. BPRS Fajar Sejahtera Bali.

The development of the digital era has brought significant changes to the world of education, including Islamic education, thus requiring educational institutions to adapt their policies and governance in a more modern way without neglecting Islamic values. SMA Al Hijrah Global School, as a globally oriented Islamic school, faces challenges in integrating the use of technology with the principles of Islamic education, both in learning, administration, and character development of students. This study aims to analyze how Islamic education policies are managed in the digital era and to identify the main challenges that arise in digital governance at the school.This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a case study design, involving the principal, teachers, administrative staff, and students as informants selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation, and then analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model. The findings show that the school has utilized technology in learning and management; however, it still faces constraints in the form of limited digital competence among teachers, suboptimal infrastructure, and challenges in supervising students’ digital ethics. The implications of this study indicate the need to strengthen Islamic education policies that are more adaptive to digital developments through improving digital literacy, providing adequate infrastructure, and reinforcing digital ethics based on Islamic values so that educational governance can run effectively and in line with the demands of the digital era.

This research examines the practices of a B4 class teacher at RA Takhrimah Tungkop in identifying children’s Multiple Intelligences (MI) through authentic observation during an activity of printing moon shapes using banana stems. The study employed a descriptive qualitative approach with data collected through in-depth interviews and participatory observation. Data were analyzed thematically and supported by source and technique triangulation to ensure the validity of the findings. The results indicate that the teacher’s understanding of the MI concept was still focused on linguistic, logical-mathematical, and visual-spatial intelligences. Despite this limited conceptual scope, the implementation of authentic observation during the art-based activity successfully revealed a broader range of children’s intelligences. The moon-printing activity demonstrated indicators of visual-spatial intelligence through shape recognition and composition, bodily-kinesthetic intelligence through hand–eye coordination and motor control, and intrapersonal intelligence reflected in children’s ability to manage emotions, maintain focus, and show persistence during the task. Repeated observations accompanied by anecdotal records enabled the teacher to construct individual and continuous MI profiles for each child. These profiles can be utilized to design more varied, contextual, and child-centered learning strategies that align with the characteristics of early childhood learners in the Raudhatul Athfal setting. The practices observed also illustrate the connection between Gardner’s MI theory and Islamic early childhood education grounded in concrete learning activities. The findings support the development of child-friendly learning environments and encourage teacher creativity in conducting activity-based assessments. This study recommends strengthening teacher competencies through training in authentic MI assessment and further research using a research and development approach.

Dropshipping is essentially a buying and selling process between a seller and a buyer using the internet. Dropshipping is a product sale that allows dropshippers to sell goods to customers using photos from suppliers or stores and then sell them to customers at a price determined by the dropshipper. The questions to be answered through this research are: a) How does the buying and selling process work using a dropship system? b) How does the buying and selling process work using a dropship system from a sharia economic perspective. The method used in this research includes descriptive research with a qualitative approach. The data used are primary and secondary data obtained from verses of the Qur'an and the Hadith, books and journals, articles, and mass media, both print and electronic, related to the focus of the problem being studied in this research. The data analysis technique used in this research is the Miles and Huberman analysis model, using data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the study indicate that the Samsarah contract is a solution to dropship transactions. The original law is permissible or permissible if carried out in accordance with Islamic provisions.

This study aims to examine K.H. Ahmad Dahlan's thoughts on the integration of Islam and science and its application at Muhammadiyah University Malang. The background of this study is the challenge of modern Islamic education, where religious and general knowledge are often separated, while Ahmad Dahlan emphasizes the need for synergy between the two to shape a generation of Muslims who are faithful, knowledgeable, and moral. This study uses a qualitative approach with a literature review method, utilizing primary and secondary literature as well as UMM academic documents. Descriptive-analytical analysis was conducted to understand Ahmad Dahlan's philosophical foundations and to examine their implementation through the curriculum, AIK courses, and academic and non-academic activities. The results of the study show that Ahmad Dahlan's thinking forms a solid foundation for the integration of religious and general knowledge, while its implementation at UMM is reflected in the strengthening of Islamic values throughout the academic process. In conclusion, the integration of Islam and science at PTM shapes individuals who are balanced between faith, knowledge, and deeds, and serves as a model of Islamic education that is adaptive to the demands of modern times.

This research aims to compare modern international trade theories from conventional and Islamic economic perspectives. The technique used is a literature review through the analysis of sources from journals, books, and related research. The findings of this research indicate that international trade theory in the conventional perspective prioritizes efficiency, specialization, and increased profits through free market mechanisms, such as the theory of absolute advantage, comparative advantage, the H-O factor proportion, and the theory of large-scale economies. However, this approach often overlooks moral aspects, distributional justice, and the risk of exploitation. On the other hand, the Islamic perspective views trade as a muamalah activity based on justice, trustworthiness (amanah), the prohibition of riba (interest), gharar (uncertainty), and maisir (gambling), as well as the objectives of maqasid sharia (the objectives of Sharia). Both views recognize the importance of trade for economic growth but differ in their basic values and ethics. In today's era of globalization and digitalization, the importance of integrating Islamic values into international trade is increasingly understood. This aims to build a more just, sustainable, and inclusive trading system. This research emphasizes the need to apply Sharia principles in contemporary trade practices, including the application of Islamic financial instruments, the development of halal e-commerce platforms, and ethical oversight within global supply chains. In this way, it is hoped that international trade can provide broader benefits to all of humanity, in accordance with the principles of justice and welfare in Islam. The interconnectedness of both approaches in the digital context demonstrates the need to unite Islamic moral values with changes in today's global trade.

This study analyzes the role of Islamic leadership in enhancing educational innovation through the integration of managerial, spiritual, and collaborative values ​​in Islamic schools. Using a qualitative literature review method, this study investigates how principals can apply the principles of amanah (trust) and ithqan (trustworthiness) as a basis for professional and ethical management. 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.

In the 21st century learning era that demands the integration of 4C skills and digital literacy, the textbook Akidah Akhlak Class IV MI based on the 2019 KMA 183 Curriculum needs to be evaluated for its suitability to be relevant in shaping students' Islamic character. This study aims to analyze the suitability of the book's content, presentation, language, and graphics according to BSNP standards, with a focus on the strengths of active learning and the weaknesses of technology integration such as QR codes and science-technology interconnections. The descriptive qualitative method through library research uses the 2020 Kemenag textbook by Subkhiaton Noor as primary data, supported by BSNP instruments and comparisons with other books. The results show that the book is very suitable overall: very good content suitability (accurate material, relevant KI-KD, supports 4C through discussion and reflection), good presentation (systematic structure, HOTS-LOTS, glossary), good language (communicative, appropriate to students' cognition), graphics pass with minor improvements in visual consistency, so it is effective for contextual learning even though it needs additional digital features.

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 examines the modern Islamic thought developed by Amin Abdullah, particularly through the concept of integrative and interconnective Islam. The main issue discussed is the fragmentation between religious sciences (naqliyah) and modern sciences (‘aqliyah) in the contemporary Islamic knowledge corpus. The purpose of this research is to analyze Amin Abdullah’s efforts in reconstructing the epistemology of Islamic knowledge through the integration of these two domains of knowledge. This research uses a qualitative-descriptive approach with a literature study method, analyzing Amin Abdullah's key works and relevant academic discourses. The results show that the integrative-interconnective paradigm offered by Amin Abdullah provides a holistic framework for understanding Islam in the modern era. This approach encourages a dialogical relationship between religion, science, and social reality, ensuring that Islamic thought remains relevant and dynamic amidst global changes. The study concludes that Amin Abdullah's perspective makes a significant contribution to the renewal of Islamic scholarship by bridging tradition and modernity. Thus, this integrative-interconnective perspective is expected to enrich the development of Islamic thought in a more inclusive and open manner.

This study examines the role of social media, particularly Twitter, as a digital da’wah medium that is fast, interactive, and easily accessible to users. However, the extent to which the use of Twitter can enhance communication confidence among students still requires empirical validation. The focus of this research is to evaluate the effectiveness of Twitter use in influencing students’ communication abilities, especially in delivering da’wah messages. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of Twitter usage on the communication confidence of students from the 2020 cohort. A quantitative approach was employed using a survey method. Data were collected through a structured, scale-based questionnaire, in accordance with the positivistic research paradigm that emphasizes objective and measurable hypothesis testing. The research population consisted of 62 students, from which 38 respondents were selected using proportionate stratified random sampling to ensure representation across all population strata. The findings reveal that the use of Twitter has a significant effect on the communication confidence of KPI IAI Al-Azis students from the 2020 cohort in delivering da’wah messages. Regression analysis results show a significance value of 0.050 < 0.05, with a Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.614, indicating a strong relationship. These results suggest that the more frequently students engage with Twitter, the greater their confidence in expressing and disseminating da’wah messages through various digital formats such as text, images, and videos. Twitter thus provides an expressive platform that fosters interaction, encourages participation, and strengthens students’ digital da’wah communication skills.

This study aims to analyze the comprehensive relationship between selection, placement, career development, and employee well-being within the perspective of organizational psychology. Human resources (HR) are the central driver of organizational success, yet many institutions, including Islamic educational institutions, still face challenges in professional HR management. This research employs a library research method with a descriptive-comparative analysis approach, reviewing relevant scientific literature and empirical reports. The findings indicate that these four aspects form an integrated unit; effective selection based on person-organization fit provides quality candidates, appropriate placement optimizes potential, structured career development maintains motivation, and holistic well-being ensures loyalty and productivity. The study concludes that organizational success is heavily dependent on the synergy of these four components managed through an organizational psychology approach, rather than being treated as separate administrative functions.
