The rapid advancement of generative artificial intelligence, particularly ChatGPT, has significantly influenced educational practices, including the teaching and learning of Islamic education. ChatGPT offers considerable opportunities by providing diverse instructional materials, expediting the preparation of teaching documents, and supporting personalized learning based on students’ abilities and learning preferences. Additionally, it functions as a supplementary learning resource capable of facilitating religious discussions, explaining abstract concepts, and fostering critical thinking skills through fast and adaptive feedback. Nevertheless, the use of ChatGPT in Islamic education also presents noteworthy challenges. The risks of misinformation and hallucination may affect students’ understanding, especially in religious matters that require high accuracy and reliable references. Other challenges include academic integrity concerns, excessive reliance on technology, content bias, and the model’s limited ability to interpret Islamic socio-religious contexts in Indonesia. Furthermore, disparities in digital literacy among teachers and students hinder optimal implementation. This article aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of these impacts and challenges by examining recent literature and empirical studies. The findings indicate that ChatGPT can offer substantial benefits for Islamic education learning when integrated critically and responsibly, supported by enhanced teacher competencies, clear institutional AI policies, and strong emphasis on ethics and source verification. Thus, ChatGPT holds the potential to serve as a strategic innovation for improving the quality of Islamic Religious Education in the digital era.

This study investigates the influence of the vocabulary terms “selumbari” and “tulat” on efforts to develop and cultivate the Indonesian language, particularly through expanding public lexical awareness via social media. These two terms, originating from local linguistic traditions, possess significant potential to be integrated into modern Indonesian as part of cultural preservation and the strengthening of national linguistic identity. The research employed a descriptive quantitative method, collecting data through the dissemination of educational videos and Google Form questionnaires on social media platforms such as Instagram, WhatsApp, and TikTok. Respondents consisted of students, university students, the general public, and various other social groups. Analysis of responses from 20 participants revealed that most respondents had never heard or read the words “selumbari” and “tulat.” However, the majority stated that both words were easy to understand and contributed positively to vocabulary development in Indonesian. The findings indicate that social media plays a strategic role in introducing and popularizing new vocabulary to a wide audience. This study also highlights the importance of vocabulary enrichment as part of ongoing Indonesian language development, ensuring that the language remains adaptive to contemporary changes while representing local cultural richness. The implications of this research may serve as a reference for educators, linguistic institutions, and policymakers in formulating strategies to enhance vocabulary literacy, especially among younger generations.

This study aims to analyze the integration of maqasid al-shariah within digital financial innovation in Islamic banking and to identify patterns in previous research through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR). The SLR method was employed to search, select, and synthesize relevant studies published between 2020 and 2025 using predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria, followed by thematic analysis.

Prior studies emphasize the importance of data security and regulatory readiness but have not formulated measurable maqasid-based indicators. This synthesis highlights the need for a more applicable maqasid-driven digital framework to strengthen governance, risk mitigation, and the strategic direction of digital innovation in Islamic banking.

State speeches in international forums are a strategic arena for the practice of diplomacy and leadership image management. This study analyzes President Prabowo Subianto's rhetorical style in his speech at the 80th UN General Assembly on September 23, 2025. Using Aristotelian theory, namely ethos, pathos, and logos, to understand how rhetoric functions in strengthening political legitimacy, humanitarian solidarity, and international policy arguments. Using a qualitative-descriptive approach, this study examines transcripts of official speeches and identifies quotations that represent each persuasive mode. The analysis shows that Prabowo builds ethos through historical references, concrete actions of Indonesia such as the contribution of peacekeeping troops, and pathos is depicted through narratives of suffering, calls for solidarity, and an emphasis on the future of the younger generation; while logos is demonstrated through the presentation of data, policy plans such as the net-zero target, technical solutions such as sea walls, and systematic cause-and-effect arguments. This combination of ethos, pathos, and logos confirms that the speech was not simply a policy statement but also a rhetorical diplomatic tool that strengthened Indonesia's image as a constructive global actor. These findings contribute to the study of leadership communication and diplomatic rhetoric, particularly in the context of developing countries seeking to enhance the role of multilateralism and soft power.
