Masjid merupakan institusi sentral dalam kehidupan umat Islam yang berfungsi tidak hanya sebagai tempat ibadah, tetapi juga sebagai pusat pemberdayaan, pendidikan, sosial, dan dakwah. Untuk menjalankan fungsi-fungsi tersebut secara optimal, masjid memerlukan sistem pengelolaan administrasi dan kesekretariatan yang profesional dan terstruktur. Makalah ini bertujuan untuk memahami definisi administrasi dan kesekretariatan masjid, mengkaji sistem pengelolaan administrasi yang baik dan profesional, serta menganalisis peran kesekretariatan sebagai basis pengelolaan administrasi masjid. Metode penulisan yang digunakan adalah kajian pustaka (library research) dengan mengumpulkan dan menganalisis berbagai sumber relevan berupa buku, jurnal, dan dokumen terkait manajemen masjid. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa administrasi dan kesekretariatan masjid mencakup keseluruhan proses penataan perkantoran dan tugas-tugas bantuan lainnya guna menunjang kelancaran pencapaian tujuan masjid. Sistem pengelolaan administrasi masjid yang efektif meliputi tiga aspek utama, yaitu surat-menyurat (korespondensi), arsip dan dokumentasi, serta pengembangan format administrasi yang terstandarisasi. Kesekretariatan berperan sebagai basis pengelolaan yang mencakup pengelolaan dokumen, koordinasi rapat dan acara, komunikasi internal dan eksternal, serta manajemen layanan dukungan. Tradisi administrasi dan dokumentasi dalam Islam telah dicontohkan langsung oleh Rasulullah SAW yang memiliki 65 orang sekretaris, dan sistem diwan pada awal peradaban Islam menjadi bukti nyata pentingnya pengelolaan administrasi yang teratur. Kesimpulannya, kesekretariatan yang profesional merupakan tulang punggung manajemen masjid yang memastikan seluruh program dan kegiatan berjalan secara tertib, transparan, dan akuntabel.

Kepemimpinan masjid merupakan proses mengarahkan, membina, dan mengelola seluruh aktivitas masjid agar berjalan secara efektif dalam mencapai tujuan dakwah, ibadah, serta pemberdayaan umat. Kepemimpinan dalam konteks masjid tidak hanya berfokus pada aspek administratif, tetapi juga pada kemampuan pemimpin dalam menjadi teladan, penggerak, dan pembina jamaah. Fungsi kepemimpinan masjid mencakup perencanaan program, pengorganisasian kegiatan, pengawasan pelaksanaan aktivitas, serta pengambilan keputusan yang bijaksana demi kemaslahatan bersama. Dalam praktiknya, terdapat beberapa tipe kepemimpinan yang dapat diterapkan dalam pengelolaan masjid, seperti kepemimpinan otoriter, demokratis, dan transformasional, yang masing-masing memiliki karakteristik serta pengaruh berbeda terhadap perkembangan organisasi masjid. Oleh karena itu, pemahaman mengenai pengertian, fungsi, dan tipe kepemimpinan masjid menjadi penting untuk mewujudkan tata kelola masjid yang profesional, produktif, dan berorientasi pada pelayanan umat.

Studi ini menganalisis elemen desain dan semiotika visual konten Instagram pada akun @disparekrafpora_gorontaloprov milik Dinas Pariwisata, Ekonomi Kreatif, Pemuda, dan Olahraga Provinsi Gorontalo sebagai media komunikasi visual dalam membangun identitas pariwisata daerah. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif dengan metode semiotika Roland Barthes pada tiga tingkat makna: denotasi, konotasi, dan mitos.

Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa konten secara konsisten menggunakan palet warna hijau-putih yang mewakili alam Gorontalo, tipografi sans-serif yang berani yang memproyeksikan modernitas, dan fotografi destinasi (pantai, air terjun, hiu paus, Masjid Baiturrahim) yang membentuk narasi mitologis Gorontalo sebagai surga tersembunyi dan 'Serambi Madinah' Sulawesi. Elemen-elemen desain ini bekerja secara sinergis untuk membangun identitas pariwisata Gorontalo di ruang digital.

Masjid dalam sejarah peradaban Islam tidak hanya berfungsi sebagai tempat ibadah ritual (mahdhah), melainkan juga sebagai pusat transformasi sosial, pendidikan, ekonomi, dan pembinaan karakter umat (ghairu mahdhah). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis secara mendalam urgensi serta implementasi pembinaan dan pengembangan jamaah masjid melalui pendekatan manajemen modern yang adaptif. Kajian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode deskriptif analitis berbasis kajian pustaka dan literatur ilmiah. Pembahasan difokuskan pada tiga pilar utama: konsep teoretis pembinaan masjid, model kelembagaan berbasis regulasi dan tata kelola modern, serta model pengembangan jamaah pada aspek spiritual, intelektual, dan ekonomi berbasis filantropi Islam. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa optimalisasi peran masjid sangat bergantung pada integrasi sistem manajemen trias (idarah, imarah, dan ri'ayah). Pembinaan yang terstruktur terbukti mampu mentransformasi jamaah menjadi subjek penggerak peradaban yang mandiri. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa modernisasi tata kelola tanpa menghilangkan nilai spiritualitas adalah kunci utama keberlanjutan ekspansi dakwah di era kontemporer.

Manajemen masjid merupakan aspek penting dalam meningkatkan efektivitas fungsi masjid sebagai pusat ibadah, sosial, dan pemberdayaan umat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji pengertian fungsi dalam manajemen serta mengidentifikasi fungsi-fungsi manajemen masjid berdasarkan teori George R. Terry. Metode yang digunakan adalah pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif dengan studi literatur sebagai sumber utama. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa fungsi dalam manajemen mencakup serangkaian aktivitas terstruktur yang meliputi perencanaan (planning), pengorganisasian (organizing), pelaksanaan (actuating), dan pengawasan (controlling). Dalam konteks manajemen masjid, keempat fungsi tersebut berperan penting dalam mengoptimalkan pengelolaan kegiatan keagamaan, administrasi, serta pelayanan kepada jamaah. Penerapan fungsi-fungsi manajemen yang sistematis dan berkelanjutan mampu meningkatkan profesionalitas pengurus masjid serta memperkuat peran masjid sebagai pusat pembinaan umat. Dengan demikian, pemahaman yang baik terhadap konsep fungsi manajemen dan implementasinya dalam pengelolaan masjid menjadi kunci dalam mewujudkan tata kelola masjid yang efektif dan berdaya guna.

Strengthening Qur’anic literacy in the community is a strategic effort to enhance the ability to read, write, and understand the Qur’an accurately, sustainably, and contextually. This community service activity was conducted through mosque-based guidance for reading and writing the Qur’an, supported by continuous evaluation, targeting local communities with limited access to Qur’anic education. The approach included intensive learning, personalized mentoring, repetitive practice, and routine monitoring by instructors and mosque administrators. Data were collected through direct observation, daily participant evaluation records, interviews with participants and mosque officials, and documentation of learning activities. Data were analyzed descriptively and qualitatively to assess literacy improvement, participation levels, emerging challenges, and the effectiveness of continuous evaluation. The results indicate significant improvement in participants’ Qur’anic reading and writing skills, heightened awareness of the importance of consistent practice, and increased motivation to continue learning through mosque-based guidance. Continuous evaluation proved effective as a monitoring tool, providing feedback and informing follow-up program planning. Active involvement of mosque administrators, instructors, and community members was identified as a key factor for the program’s success. This service model demonstrates that integrating community-based guidance with ongoing evaluation can be an effective strategy to build consistent, inclusive, and sustainable Qur’anic literacy in local communities.

Masjid bukan sekadar tempat shalat, melainkan institusi yang menopang banyak sisi kehidupan umat Islam dari dakwah, pendidikan, hingga pemberdayaan sosial. Agar peran itu berjalan optimal, pengelolaannya tidak bisa lagi mengandalkan cara-cara konvensional, melainkan memerlukan pendekatan manajerial yang sistematis. Artikel ini disusun untuk mengurai konsep manajemen masjid serta ruang lingkup yang menyertainya, sebagai langkah awal memahami bagaimana fungsi masjid dapat dioptimalkan. Kajian menggunakan pendekatan deskriptif-kualitatif berbasis studi pustaka, dengan menelaah literatur, jurnal, dan sumber tertulis lain yang relevan dengan manajemen masjid. Temuan menunjukkan bahwa manajemen masjid pada dasarnya adalah proses pengelolaan terencana yang dijalankan bersama oleh pengurus dan jamaah, mencakup fungsi perencanaan, pengorganisasian, pengarahan, dan pengawasan. Ruang lingkupnya terbagi ke dalam tiga bidang utama: idarah (administrasi dan organisasi), imarah (pemakmuran masjid melalui kegiatan ibadah dan dakwah), serta ri'ayah (pemeliharaan sarana dan prasarana). Ketiganya saling menopang; ketika dijalankan secara konsisten, masjid dapat tampil bukan hanya sebagai rumah ibadah, tetapi juga sebagai pusat peradaban umat.

Masjid memiliki peran penting sebagai pusat ibadah, pendidikan, dan kegiatan sosial dalam kehidupan masyarakat. Keberhasilan pengelolaan masjid tidak hanya bergantung pada pengurus, tetapi juga partisipasi aktif jamaah. Pengurus masjid memiliki tugas dan tanggung jawab dalam mengatur administrasi, menjaga kebersihan dan kenyamanan masjid, mengelola kegiatan keagamaan, serta meningkatkan kesejahteraan umat melalui program sosial dan pendidikan. Sementara itu, jamaah memiliki tanggung jawab untuk menjaga ketertiban, memakmurkan masjid dengan aktif mengikuti kegiatan ibadah, serta mendukung program-program yang telah direncanakan oleh pengurus. Kerja sama yang baik antara pengurus dan jamaah dapat menciptakan suasana masjid yang harmonis, nyaman, dan bermanfaat bagi masyarakat. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan kesadaran dan rasa tanggung jawab bersama agar fungsi masjid sebagai pusat pembinaan umat dapat berjalan dengan optimal.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis praktik pembelajaran tafsir Al-Qur'an menggunakan bahasa Bali sebagai media instruksional di Desa Pegayaman, Buleleng. Di tengah arus globalisasi yang mengancam eksistensi bahasa daerah, masyarakat Pegayaman menunjukkan resiliensi budaya melalui integrasi nilai-nilai Islam dengan kearifan lokal Bali. Melalui studi kasus pada kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat di Masjid Safinatussalam pada 04 April 2026, penelitian ini mengeksplorasi bagaimana Ustadz Zihni Hasan mentransformasikan pemahaman Surah Al-Baqarah kepada jamaah remaja putri dan ibu-ibu melalui medium bahasa Bali. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah kualitatif deskriptif dengan pendekatan etnopedagogi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penggunaan bahasa daerah bukan sekadar alat komunikasi, melainkan strategi "pribumisasi" Islam yang memperkuat identitas "Nyama Selam"( penduduk islam yang telah lama menetap dan mengadopsi budaya bali dalam kehidupan sehari-hari). Penggunaan bahasa ibu terbukti efektif menurunkan hambatan kognitif dan emosional dalam memahami teks suci, sekaligus berfungsi sebagai sarana konservasi bahasa daerah. Temuan ini menegaskan pentingnya pendidikan agama Islam berbasis budaya sebagai model moderasi beragama di Indonesia.

Mosques have significant potential for the socio-economic empowerment of the community through the instruments of Zakat, Infaq, Sadaqah, and Waqf (ZISWAF). However, in reality, the management of these funds is often passive and consumptive, mostly allocated for physical maintenance. This community service activity aims to provide education and formulate a strategic framework for "Masjid Berdaya, Umat Berkarya" to transform ZISWAF management into productive empowerment at Pondok Pesantren Mambaul Ulum Al-Birowi, Sokobanah District, Sampang Regency. The method used is Participatory Action Research (PAR) involving 50 participants, consisting of Islamic boarding school administrators, mosque takmirs, and local residents. The activity was carried out in five stages: problem identification, planning, implementation, reflection and evaluation, and further development. The results indicated a paradigm shift and a quantitatively significant increase in understanding among the participants. Based on the evaluation, the average pre-test score of participants with a good understanding (categorized as 'Understand' and 'Strongly Understand') of productive ZISWAF strategies was only 13.5%. After the training, the post-test results revealed a drastic improvement, with the average comprehension score reaching 85% (reflecting an overall increase of 71.5%). Specifically, the understanding levels increased regarding the urgency of productive infaq (from 10% to 80%), the distribution of Qardhul Hasan/interest-free loans (from 4% to 80%), the establishment of UMKM bazaars (from 20% to 90%), and the transparency of financial reports (from 20% to 90%). In conclusion, this mentoring program is proven effective in encouraging the partners' commitment to adopt progressive mosque governance to realize the economic independence of the community.

Astronomy in Islam (Ilmu Falak) is a branch of science that studies the position of celestial bodies related to the implementation of Islamic worship, especially in determining the qibla direction and prayer times. In this simple study, an analysis was conducted on several mosques, namely Masjid Al-Huda, Masjid Bahrul Ulum, Masjid Besar Al-Muslimun Kepatihan, and Masjid several Besar Al-Falah Ngunut. The analysis was carried out by comparing the qibla azimuth with the direction of the building or prayer rows, as well as evaluating the suitability of prayer times used by the mosques with digital standard times and official prayer schedules. The method used in this study was field observation assisted by digital applications and online prayer schedule sources. The results showed differences in qibla direction deviation and prayer times in each mosque. The largest qibla deviation was found at Masjid Bahrul Ulum, while the smallest deviation was found at Masjid Besar Al-Muslimun Kepatihan. Meanwhile, the prayer time differences ranged from 1 minute to 1 minute 30 seconds. From these results, it can be understood that accuracy in determining the qibla direction and prayer times is very important to support the proper implementation of worship. In addition, the development of digital technology greatly assists the process of falak analysis in modern society.

This community service activity aimed to introduce and implement Cone Penetration Testing (CPT) or sondir testing as an initial method for evaluating soil bearing capacity in the construction plan of Masjid Jami’ Raudhatul Jannah, located in East Jakarta. Soil investigation plays a crucial role in ensuring the structural safety and stability of buildings, particularly for public facilities such as mosques. The program was conducted through field observations, technical explanations, and direct demonstrations of CPT procedures to mosque administrators and local community representatives. The test results provided information regarding soil stratification, cone resistance, and estimated bearing capacity at the proposed construction site. The activity also enhanced participants’ understanding of the importance of geotechnical investigations prior to construction work. Through this program, the community gained practical knowledge about soil testing methods and their contribution to minimizing structural risks and supporting sustainable building development. The implementation of CPT testing is expected to become a reference for future construction planning in the area.

Amid the accelerating rhythm of digital culture, academic competition, and the changing patterns of student life in higher education, the formation of Muslim student character has become an increasingly urgent concern. A campus mosque can no longer be viewed merely as a place of worship; it must also be understood as a strategic nonformal Islamic educational space that nurtures spirituality, morality, social awareness, and student identity in a more contextual way. This study aims to analyze the role of the campus mosque as a space for shaping Muslim student character through the Islamic mentoring program at Masjid Syamsul Ulum, Telkom University. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach based on document study and thematic analysis of scholarly articles, mentoring program documents, and relevant works on campus mosques, religious moderation, and student character education. The findings show that the mentoring program at Masjid Syamsul Ulum is systematically designed through a clear structure, curriculum, methods, evaluation tools, and mentor regeneration, all of which are integrated with the institutional values of Harmony, Excellence, and Integrity. Socioculturally, the program functions not only as a medium for religious instruction but also as a process of value internalization, habituation of religious practice, strengthening of moderation, and construction of Muslim student identity within a technology-oriented university environment. This study proposes a conceptual understanding that the campus mosque can serve as a strategic space for shaping Muslim students who are religious, moderate, collaborative, and adaptive in the digital era.

This community service activity aimed to enhance human resource management (HRM) literacy among congregation members through weekly religious study sessions at Kramatwatu Mosque. HRM literacy is important not only in formal work environments, but also in family life, social organizations, and religious activities. The problem identified was the congregation’s limited understanding of basic HRM concepts, such as planning, organizing, role distribution, discipline, communication, and individual potential development. The community service program was carried out through an educational-participatory approach in the form of material presentation, interactive discussions, simple case studies, and reflection on Islamic values relevant to human resource management. The activity was implemented gradually in weekly religious study forums by taking into account the characteristics of the congregation. The results showed an improvement in the congregation’s understanding of the importance of HRM in daily life, particularly in the aspects of responsibility, cooperation, discipline, and self-capacity development. Weekly religious study sessions proved effective as a medium for community empowerment because they were able to integrate religious values with practical HRM concepts. Therefore, strengthening HRM literacy through weekly religious study sessions can serve as a relevant educational strategy to improve mosque-based human resource quality.

Human resource management (HRM) plays a crucial role in improving the quality of da’wah programs in mosques. This study aims to analyze the implementation of HRM in managing da’wah programs at Masjid Raya Pematang Siantar, as well as to identify obstacles and solutions to improve the effectiveness of da’wah activities. The research used a qualitative approach with interview, observation, and documentation techniques. Informants consisted of mosque administrators, preachers (da’i), and active congregants. The results showed that HRM in the da’wah programs already has a fairly clear organizational structure, but several aspects still need improvement. The recruitment of preachers is still conducted informally without clear competency standards, and there are no specialized training programs for preachers. Congregational participation also remains fluctuating. Another weakness is the minimal use of technology in disseminating da’wah information, as promotion is still carried out conventionally without optimizing digital platforms. In addition, limited funding and the lack of professional management personnel are major challenges. Solutions that can be implemented include improving preacher recruitment and training systems, utilizing technology in da’wah dissemination, and optimizing financial management through effective fundraising strategies. With better HRM implementation, da’wah programs at Masjid Raya Pematang Siantar are expected to operate more professionally and provide broader positive impacts on society

The Alpha generation is currently facing big challenges in balancing virtual activities and real life, where the high intensity of using devices often shifts priorities for worship, especially during the month of Ramadan. This dependence on digital screens triggers individualistic attitudes and reduces children's levels of religious participation. Therefore, this community service activity aims to increase the capacity of parents and children to implement time management and limit screen time effectively. The method used is a social marketing approach combined with participatory observation techniques, interactive visual promotions, and educational simulation games which were implemented in the Imaduddin Mosque Youth Hall, Medokan Ayu, Surabaya. The results of the activity showed a significant increase in understanding among children and parents regarding the importance of setting time limits for using devices. Generation Alpha children responded positively by enthusiastically setting their own daily priority scale between playing and worshiping without feeling forced. The implications of this activity include long-term changes to the social and spiritual dynamics of residents, the creation of a more harmonious family environment with minimal conflict related to confiscation of devices, as well as the revival of the function of mosques as centers of communal interaction for the younger generation. It is hoped that the independence of citizens in educating children will be able to build the foundation for a future generation that is digitally intelligent, mentally healthy and has a strong religious character.

The background of this research is based on the importance of Sharia-based social financing in assisting people in need without involving elements of riba, while ensuring that its practices remain aligned with Islamic economic law principles. This study aims to analyze the implementation of qard financing at the Masjid Raya Bintaro Jaya Amil Zakat Institution (MRBJ) and to examine its compliance with the provisions set by the Dewan Syariah Nasional Majelis Ulama Indonesia, through Fatwa Number 19/DSN-MUI/IV/2001 concerning Al-Qard. This research employs a qualitative method with a case study approach. Data collection techniques include interviews, observations, and documentation. The research subjects consist of zakat institution administrators and beneficiaries. (mustahiq) of the Qard Financing Program. The results indicate that the implementation of Qard financing at MRBJ has been carried out as a form of community economic empowerment, with a relatively simple distribution mechanism oriented toward the needs of the mustahiq. However, in practice, there are still several aspects that have not been optimal, particularly in terms of assistance and monitoring for the beneficiaries. Therefore, this study concludes that although qard financing at MRBJ. provides significant social benefits, there is a need to enhance Sharia understanding and improving institutional governance to ensure optimal implementation in accordance with the principles established by the DSN-MUI fatwa with the principles established by the DSN-MUI fatwa.

This research aims to develop an information system for the Imam Malik Koppe Mosque in Darma Village, Polewali District, Polewali Mandar Regency, utilizing the eMasjid platform as a solution for digitally managing mosque activities. The problem faced was the suboptimal recording of activity data, financial data, and service information for the congregation. The system development method used the Waterfall model, which consists of needs analysis, system design, implementation, testing, and maintenance. The result of this research is a mosque information system capable of presenting information on activities, financial data, reports, and communication between administrators more efficiently, transparently, and accountably. This system is expected to be an effective and user-friendly means of digitizing mosque management.

Community service is an integral part of the Tri Dharma of Higher Education, aimed at providing tangible contributions to society. This activity was carried out in the form of a training program for the development of paripurna mosque imams across Pekanbaru City, focusing on improving the competencies of imams in both religious practices and the understanding of Islamic economics.
