This study aims to analyze and implement the Village Community Empowerment Program through Sharia Financial Literacy and Introduction to Sharia Banking Products in Perkebunan Gunung Melayu Village. This program is motivated by the low level of formal financial literacy, particularly regarding Sharia banking, among the village community. The methods used are outreach and mentoring, focusing on two main pillars: instilling wise money management habits and introducing Sharia banking services. The results of the activities indicate an increase in community awareness of the importance of saving as a foundation for wise money management from an early age. Participants learn to manage expenses, distinguish between needs and wants, and prepare funds for the future, which are habits that form the basis for healthy and responsible financial behavior. In addition, the community is provided with a comprehensive understanding of the various financial services provided by Sharia banks, such as savings, deposits, checking accounts, ATM cards, and digital services. This understanding empowers the community to manage their money and conduct transactions safely and efficiently through a formal banking system that complies with Sharia principles. Overall, this program contributes significantly to increasing Sharia financial inclusion and literacy in Perkebunan Gunung Melayu Village.

Indonesia has long demonstrated its solidarity with the Palestinian people as a reflection of its free and active foreign policy and commitment to human rights. This study aims to examine how Indonesia’s stance toward the humanitarian crisis in Gaza embodies the principles of a free and active foreign policy and aligns with the human rights values enshrined in the 1945 Constitution and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Using a normative juridical approach, this research analyzes relevant laws, policies, and official government statements. The findings show that Indonesia’s support for Palestine is not a form of political alignment, but rather a moral expression of justice and humanity. Through active diplomacy, humanitarian assistance, and participation in international forums, Indonesia consistently promotes peace and the enforcement of international humanitarian law. Thus, Indonesia’s position reflects a balance between the principles of a free and active foreign policy and the universal protection of human rights.

This research, titled “Islamic Universalism and Local Islam,” aims to analyze the relationship between the universal values of Islam and the expressions of local Islam that develop within the cultural context of society. The main focus of this study is to understand how Islam, as a universal religion, interacts with local cultures without losing its core principles such as tawhid (monotheism), justice, equality, and rahmah (compassion). The research method used is library research with a qualitative approach. Data were collected through the analysis of academic literature, scholarly journal articles, and other relevant scientific works. The analysis technique employed is content analysis, used to examine the relationship between universal Islamic values and their manifestations in local religious traditions. The findings indicate that Islamic universalism and local Islam are not opposing concepts but rather complementary ones. Islamic universalism provides an inclusive ethical and spiritual foundation, while local Islam reflects the contextual application of Islamic teachings within specific cultural settings. The integration of both creates a form of religiosity that is moderate, adaptive, and harmonious, making it relevant to the pluralistic society of the modern era.

The global environmental crisis is increasingly alarming, with deforestation and resource exploitation severely impacting ecosystems and local communities. In Indonesia, Flores Island has become a strategic site for geothermal projects, including the planned drilling in Poco Leok, Manggarai, East Nusa Tenggara. This project has provoked strong resistance from local communities due to ecological threats such as deforestation, biodiversity loss, water pollution, and water scarcity, all of which exacerbate social vulnerability, particularly among women. This study employs a qualitative literature-based analysis using Taoist philosophy as an interpretive framework. The principles of Yin–Yang, Wu Wei, and Ziran are applied as reflective lenses to identify the root of the crisis: the imbalance in human–nature relations caused by exploitative and dominant development models. The findings demonstrate that economy-driven development undermines ecological harmony and local wisdom, thereby deepening social hardship. In contrast, Taoist philosophy offers an alternative paradigm that emphasizes balance, harmony, and respect for the natural order. Addressing the Poco Leok conflict therefore requires not only a reassessment of policy but also a paradigm shift in development toward ecological justice and inclusive, sustainable well-being.

Learning strategies are both a systematic approach and an art for managing the learning process so that learning objectives can be achieved effectively and efficiently. As a method, learning strategies are designed based on specific principles and rules derived from learning theory and educational research. This makes learning strategies a distinct field of knowledge that can be studied, developed, and applied scientifically. As an art, learning strategies demonstrate an educator's ability to creatively and flexibly utilize various learning resources, methods, and media according to student characteristics and the learning environment. A teacher who possesses sensitivity and intuition in managing learning can create a pleasant atmosphere and motivate students to be active and independent in their learning. Without a clear and directed strategy, the learning process tends to be haphazard, unfocused, and difficult to achieve. Therefore, planning and implementing appropriate learning strategies are crucial factors in the success of the educational process, as they determine the extent to which teaching and learning activities can proceed optimally and produce meaningful learning outcomes for students.  

The need to strengthen literacy in Indonesian language learning requires teachers to be innovative in designing assessment instruments that are relevant to current developments. One approach that can be used is the application of multimodal texts, namely texts that combine various communication modes such as writing, images, sound, and symbols to convey meaning more comprehensively. This community service program was carried out with the aim of improving the competence of Indonesian language teachers at the junior high school level throughout Sragen Regency in developing literacy questions based on multimodal texts that align with the demands of the Independent Curriculum. The activity was carried out through two months of intensive training and mentoring, which included a theoretical understanding of the concept of multimodal texts, analysis of sample questions, and practice in developing literacy-based assessment instruments. The results of the activity showed a significant increase in teachers' understanding of the principles of multimodal texts and their ability to design questions that challenge students' critical and creative thinking skills. Through this program, teachers not only gained new knowledge but also were motivated to be more adaptive to developments in digital media and innovation in learning. Thus, this activity contributed to improving the quality of Indonesian language learning that is contextual, interactive, and meaningful for students.

Education serves as an institutional mechanism that can accelerate the development of a nation's character. Factors influencing the decline of the Indonesian nation are the result of mental and moral decline, which occurs in both the older and younger generations, including within the government and among the wider community. These factors have resulted in the Indonesian nation experiencing setbacks in various positions in the world. To overcome this problem, the Indonesian nation needs to develop and build a life by instilling positive values ​​​​to develop good character and be able to compete with other countries in the era of globalization. Character education offers a great opportunity to implement the process of fostering and developing human beings, with education based on noble morals, namely Islamic education that integrates faith, sharia, and morals in a learning system that is based on Islamic morals and influences self-improvement. One of the advantages of Al-Islam for humanity is the creation of a comprehensive and consistent method for developing mentality, producing generations, building society and culture, and upholding the principles of glory and civilization. Child educators must continue to seek more effective methods, seeking informative educational rules in preparing children mentally and morally, scientifically, spiritually, and socially, so that children can reach perfect maturity.

This study provides an in-depth analysis of the urgency of employing a contextual approach to the Qur’an and Sunnah as a hermeneutical framework for addressing the increasingly complex social problems in Indonesia. Based on the premise that divine revelation encompasses both textual and contextual dimensions, this research underscores the necessity of reinterpreting Islamic teachings by considering the sociocultural, economic, and intellectual transformations of modern society. Utilizing library research and extensive scholarly literature review, the study examines the contributions of the contextual approach in revitalizing maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah, advancing social exegesis, promoting productive zakat models, strengthening child protection policies, developing environmental jurisprudence, and enhancing social ijtihād during crisis situations such as the Covid-19 pandemic. The findings demonstrate that a contextual approach enables Islamic teachings to be articulated into more adaptive, inclusive, and progressive ethical principles without compromising their theological foundations. This approach also reinforces the integration of social sciences into Islamic studies, thereby producing legal formulations and public policies that promote public welfare, social justice, and ecological sustainability. Overall, the study concludes that the contextual approach is not merely a method of interpretation but a civilizational paradigm essential for shaping Islam’s relevance within Indonesia’s multicultural society. By fostering a dialogical encounter between scriptural texts and empirical realities, this approach preserves the vitality of Islamic teachings while ensuring their constructive and sustainable contribution to resolving national issues.  

Parenting plays a crucial role in shaping a child's personality and religious values ​​from an early age. This study aims to examine the concept of parenting from an Islamic perspective, particularly according to the views of Imam Al-Ghazali, a prominent Islamic scholar and thinker. The method used was a literature review with a descriptive analytical and historical approach. The results show that Islamic parenting, according to Al-Ghazali, is based on the principles of monotheism, faith, and noble morals derived from the Quran and Sunnah. Al-Ghazali viewed children as a trust from Allah, born in a state of fitrah (purity) and as potential beings who are the hope of the community. Educating children must be done from an early age because childhood is a golden period that is very decisive in character formation. The parenting methods recommended by Al-Ghazali include: (1) the habituation method to shape character through continuous practice; (2) the role model method, where parents serve as direct role models for children; (3) the storytelling method to instill moral values; (4) the advice method with a compassionate approach; and (5) reward and punishment methods applied wisely. Al Ghazali's parenting concept emphasizes the importance of parents' role in creating a conducive environment for children's spiritual, moral, and social development, which not only impacts worldly life but also the afterlife. This research contributes to the idea of ​​the urgency of implementing Islamic teachings in educating and raising children in the digital era, which is full of various challenges.

This study aims to describe the implementation of Islamic financial literacy training and its impact on enhancing students’ understanding of Islamic economics at SMK Negeri 1 Dolok Masihul. The research employed a qualitative descriptive approach involving 25 students as participants. Data were collected through observation, interviews, questionnaires, and documentation. The results show that the training, conducted through interactive methods such as discussions, simulations, and case studies, significantly improved students’ knowledge of Islamic financial principles, including profit-sharing (mudharabah and musyarakah), prohibition of riba, and ethical financial management. The average understanding level increased from 63% before the training to 87% afterward. Supporting factors included teacher involvement, engaging materials, and the practical relevance of the content, while limiting factors were time constraints and lack of reference materials. Overall, the implementation of Islamic financial literacy training proved effective in strengthening students’ conceptual and practical understanding of Islamic economics and can serve as a model for integrating Sharia-based financial education in vocational schools.

This study examines the implementation of deep learning integrated with Problem Based Learning (PBL) in Fiqh subjects at MAS Al-Mashuriyah Pagelaran Cianjur. Using a descriptive qualitative design, data were gathered through classroom observations, interviews with teachers and students, and documentation across six instructional meetings in grades XI and XII. The results show that the combination of deep learning and PBL substantially increases students’ active participation and encourages them to think more critically, especially when studying purification (thaharah) materials. Through group discussions, case-based problems, and guided exploration of Islamic legal sources, students were able to connect theoretical concepts to everyday religious practices. This approach allowed learning to shift from memorization toward deeper conceptual understanding and contextual application. The teacher served primarily as a facilitator, providing direction and scaffolding while giving students space to analyze, argue, and draw conclusions independently. Overall, the findings indicate that integrating deep learning with PBL is an effective pedagogical strategy for enhancing the quality of Fiqh learning at the madrasah level, as it not only improves comprehension but also fosters analytical thinking, collaboration, and the ability to apply Islamic legal principles in practical situations.

This study explores the role of Christian religious education teachers in shaping students’ character within the school setting. Employing a literature review method, the research analyzes secondary sources that discuss character formation theories grounded in Biblical principles and Christian education approaches. Key values examined include love, honesty, responsibility, forgiveness, and compassion, which are integrated into the learning process. The findings reveal that Christian religious education teachers hold a crucial position as educators, mentors, and role models, responsible for guiding students in internalizing these values. Character development is fostered not only through formal lessons but also through teachers’ personal example, the incorporation of Biblical teachings into classroom activities, and the encouragement of practical faith expressions in daily life. This holistic approach ensures that students not only understand Christian moral principles cognitively but also embody them in behavior and interactions with others. The study emphasizes that effective character formation relies on consistent modeling of values by teachers, meaningful integration of religious teachings into pedagogy, and opportunities for students to practice faith-based actions, thereby strengthening both moral awareness and ethical conduct.

This study is motivated by the increasing complexity of ethical challenges in public healthcare services in the modern era, characterized by rapid technological advancement, professional pressures, and shifting moral values. Within this context, Christian healthcare professionals face significant dilemmas in maintaining their faith-based ethical principles amid pragmatic service demands. This research aims to construct a Christian ethical framework on human dignity as a normative foundation for public healthcare practice. The study employs a descriptive qualitative method using a literature review approach, analyzing theological, philosophical, and social sources related to ethics, human dignity, and public service. The findings reveal that Christian ethics is rooted in the concept of Imago Dei, affirming that every human being possesses intrinsic dignity as created in the image of God. The principles of love (agape), justice, and moral responsibility serve as the core foundation for ethical healthcare practice. The implications of this study emphasize that healthcare services should not be merely technical but must also embody spiritual and humanistic values. Therefore, Christian healthcare professionals are called to act as moral agents who promote compassionate, dignified, and holistic care within the public healthcare system.

Sustainable development is now a very important worldwide issue since it is important for the health of future generations without harming the environment or generating social injustice.

This study examines the construction of reality and violations of broadcasting ethics in the Xpose Uncensored Trans7 program in 2025 which displays a negative image of pesantren and kiai. Using a descriptive qualitative approach with the framing analysis of Pan and Kosicki's model, this study reveals the existence of tendentious narrative and visual manipulation, thus giving the impression of harassment of religious symbols. The broadcasts are considered to violate the principles of balance and social responsibility as stipulated in the Broadcasting Code of Conduct and Broadcast Program Standards (P3SPS). The public reaction that emerged through the hashtag #BoikotTRANS7 reflects the increasing public awareness of the importance of ethics in broadcasting practices. This phenomenon shows that the media not only functions as a conveyor of information, but also has a moral responsibility in shaping public opinion in a fair and balanced manner. This study emphasizes the urgency of increasing media literacy and ethical sensitivity in the production of broadcast content, especially those related to the representation of religious groups. Thus, the results of this study are expected to be a reference for broadcasting institutions, media regulators, and the public in encouraging more ethical and responsible broadcasting practices in the digital era.

This study examines Christian ethics in responding to the moral crisis of young people in the digital era. The development of social media, algorithmic culture, and the attention economy has shaped how young people construct identity, manage desire, build relationships, and make moral decisions. The central issue explored in this study is not merely digital misconduct, such as hoaxes, cyberbullying, pornography, self-display culture, and social media addiction, but the fracture of Christian self-awareness that separates faith from everyday digital practices. This research employs a descriptive qualitative method through library research and theological-ethical analysis. The data were analyzed through thematic reduction, categorization of digital moral issues, and interpretation based on Christian ethical principles. The findings show that the digital moral crisis must be understood as a problem of identity, desire formation, and character development. Therefore, this study constructs a model of digital Christian ethics consisting of digital moral literacy, digital character discipline, digital discipleship community, and digital witness. The implication is that families, churches, and Christian educational institutions must develop systematic, contextual, and transformative digital ethics formation.

Learning evaluation is an essential component of the Islamic education system as it serves to assess the achievement of learning objectives and measure students’ development. This study aims to examine the concept of learning evaluation according to the Hadith of the Prophet Muhammad Shallallahu ‘Alaihi Wasallam and its relevance in modern educational contexts. The research employs a qualitative descriptive approach with a literature study method, using sources from hadith collections, Islamic education books, and scientific journals. The findings reveal that the Prophet’s hadith provides a strong foundation for the implementation of learning evaluation based on three main domains: cognitive, affective, and psychomotor. Furthermore, the hadith emphasizes sincerity, justice, and exemplary behavior as essential principles in the evaluation process. The implementation of these values in modern education requires teachers to assess not only academic performance but also students’ moral and spiritual aspects. Thus, learning evaluation based on hadith serves as guidance for achieving a balanced education between knowledge, morality, and skills.

These findings confirm that BUMDes management based on the principles of good governance can be a major catalyst in achieving sustainable rural development and improving the welfare of village communities.

The implementation of environmental management is an important aspect in shaping ecological behavior within educational settings. Law No. 32 of 2009 emphasizes the responsibility of individuals and institutions to preserve the environment, in line with the principles of Fiqh Al-Bi’ah in Islam. Al-Fajr Dormitory of Ma’had Al-Zaytun serves as an example of this application through the daily activities of its students. This study aims to describe the implementation of environmental management at Al-Fajr Dormitory based on Articles 67–68 of Law No. 32 of 2009 and the Fiqh Al-Bi’ah perspective. Using a descriptive qualitative method through observation, interviews, and documentation, data were obtained from dormitory administrators, students, and relevant literature. The results show that environmental management is carried out through routine activities such as cleaning duties, waste management, facility maintenance, and the prudent use of resources. From the perspective of Fiqh Al-Bi’ah, these practices reflect the values of stewardship (khalifah), trust (amanah), and balance (mīzān). The synergy between state regulations and Islamic principles fosters disciplined, responsible students with strong ecological awareness as part of sustainable environmental development.
