Religious gaslighting is a form of psychological manipulation that uses religious authority and teachings to question or doubt a person's perceptions, emotions, and experiences, so that the victim feels guilty or unfaithful. In the context of the Muslim community, this practice can occur when religious understanding is used narrowly and authoritarianly, suppressing freedom of thought, and perpetuating power imbalances—both in family relationships, communities, and religious institutions. This article examines the phenomenon of religious gaslighting from the perspective of critical Islamic education, with the aim of dismantling manipulative patterns wrapped in religious narratives. The approach used is qualitative-descriptive with literature analysis of classical and contemporary Islamic sources, as well as interdisciplinary studies in the fields of religious psychology and educational philosophy. The results of the study show that religious gaslighting is not only a matter of individual morals, but also part of an authoritarian social and cultural structure that needs to be countered through liberating (ta'dib) and transformative Islamic education. Islamic education based on the values ​​of justice (al-‘adl), compassion (rahmah), and deliberation can be a critical tool for building a healthy spiritual awareness and freeing people from the shackles of manipulative authority. Thus, education has a central role in forming a generation of Muslims who are able to distinguish between the authenticity of Islamic teachings and their misuse in the practice of power.

This study investigates the effect of role stress and job resources on emotional exhaustion, with work-family conflict as a mediating variable among higher education personnel. Employing a quantitative research design with a causality analysis approach, data were collected through a structured questionnaire using a five-point Likert scale. The sample consisted of 200 educational staff at XYZ institution in Bogor Regency, including civil servants, permanent employees, and contract workers. Data analysis was conducted using the Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) technique with SmartPLS 3 software. The findings revealed that role stress has a positive and significant impact on emotional exhaustion, indicating that increased stress from role demands contributes to higher levels of emotional fatigue. Conversely, job resources were found to have no significant direct effect on emotional exhaustion. Furthermore, work-family conflict significantly mediated the relationship between role stress and emotional exhaustion, suggesting that stress from conflicting work and family demands intensifies emotional exhaustion. However, work-family conflict did not mediate the relationship between job resources and emotional exhaustion. These results emphasize the critical need for effective stress management strategies and support systems that can help reduce work-family conflict to maintain the emotional well-being of education personnel. This study contributes to understanding the psychological dynamics in the workplace and provides insight into improving employee resilience and productivity in educational institutions.

This study is based on the phenomenon of anxiety that patients almost always experience before undergoing surgery, which generally arises due to limited information regarding the upcoming medical procedure. Anxiety is understood as a psychological response closely related to stress and can be influenced by various factors, including the patient's education level. Education plays a crucial role in increasing a person's general knowledge, particularly in understanding medical theories, procedures, and risks, thus enabling patients to make better decisions and reducing anxiety. In the context of spinal anesthesia, knowledge about the preparation, procedure, and side effects of anesthesia can help patients feel more mentally prepared. The main objective of this study was to analyze the relationship between education level and anxiety levels in patients undergoing spinal anesthesia. This study used a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional correlation design and involved 49 respondents selected through a purposive sampling technique. The data collection instrument used the APAIS questionnaire, while data analysis was performed using the Spearman Rho test. The results showed that respondents were predominantly aged 36–45 years (40.8%), predominantly female (53%), with the majority undergoing general surgery (49%), and having an ASA II health status (63%). In terms of education, the majority of respondents were high school graduates (67.1%), while the highest anxiety level was in the moderate category (83.7%). Spearman's Rho analysis yielded a p-value of 0.039 < 0.05, thus accepting the alternative hypothesis (Ha). Therefore, it can be concluded that there is a significant relationship between education level and preoperative patient anxiety during spinal anesthesia procedures. This finding confirms that increasing knowledge through education plays a significant role in reducing anxiety before medical procedures.
