The integration of English language teaching with contemporary Islamic educational values is an innovative approach that combines language mastery with character development based on Islamic principles. This approach aims to address dual needs: fostering global competencies while preserving cultural and religious identity. Integrating values such as honesty, responsibility, respect, and tolerance into the English curriculum enriches the learning experience and promotes character building among students. Teachers play a vital role as facilitators, utilizing creative and culturally relevant materials, such as Islamic texts, Qur'anic stories, and historical narratives, to create a meaningful learning environment. This approach not only enhances language skills but also instills ethical and spiritual dimensions in education. Despite challenges such as limited teacher training and the availability of suitable teaching materials, the integration of Islamic values into English language teaching offers a holistic framework for shaping individuals who are both globally competent and morally grounded. This study emphasizes the importance of aligning educational practices with Islamic principles to prepare students for a connected modern world while preserving their religious and cultural heritage.
 
 
 

Academic stress is a common challenge experienced by students due to the burden and pressure in higher education environments. This study conducted a systematic literature analysis to evaluate the effectiveness of mindfulness-based psychological interventions and social support in addressing academic stress. By reviewing various empirical studies from leading journals, it was found that mindfulness—through techniques such as Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR)—is beneficial in reducing stress, anxiety, and improving students' emotional regulation and learning focus. In addition, social support from family, friends, and the campus environment acts as a stress buffer by providing emotional support and a sense of connectedness. An approach that combines mindfulness and social support has shown more effective results in helping students manage academic stress. Therefore, it is recommended that higher education institutions develop programs that integrate these two interventions to improve students' mental well-being sustainably.

The religion of Islam, revealed to the Prophet Muhammad, continues to evolve over time, with Indonesia being a Muslim-majority country with a population of approximately 229.62 million people (87.2% of the total population). With the world's Muslim population projected to reach 2.2 billion by 2030, Indonesia accounts for around 13.1% of the global Muslim population. This study aims to examine the role of social media as a means of da'wah, the challenges faced, and solutions to overcome these challenges. Through a survey involving 76 respondents, it was found that the utilization of social media for Islamic da'wah content is still relatively low; the majority of respondents only occasionally search for and rarely share da'wah content. Challenges in da'wah in the era of globalization include laziness to access content, diverse preferences for preachers and methods, and the existence of invalid content. The findings suggest the need for more effective strategies to increase public interest and participation in da'wah through social media
