2026-01-08T07:32:11+00:00

Child marriage remains a persistent issue in Probolinggo Regency, posing risks to children’s well-being and raising complex legal, religious, and socio-cultural challenges. This study aims to explore how the values of love and tolerance in Islamic law, along with local wisdom, can be harmonized to address the practice of child marriage.

Model Pembelajaran Seni Islami dengan Pendekatan Etnopedagogi

2026-01-08T07:37:20+00:00

The Islamic arts learning model holds a strategic position in the education of prospective madrasah teachers as it fosters spirituality, strengthens moral character, and bridges local wisdom with the vision of global education. This study aims to formulate an Islamic arts learning model grounded in an ethnopedagogical approach within the context of the Islamic Elementary Teacher Education Program (PGMI). Using a descriptive qualitative conceptual method, data were obtained through classroom observations, document analysis (lesson plans and teaching notes), and a comprehensive review of national and international literature. The findings indicate that Islamic arts learning in PGMI remains fragmented and tends to emphasize technical skills, with limited integration of Islamic values in the character-building process. The ethnopedagogical approach proves effective in offering contextual, participatory, and socially grounded learning experiences for students. The proposed model comprises four interrelated components: 1) Islamic values as the foundational principle, 2) participatory pedagogical strategies, 3) Islamic artistic expression as a medium for value internalization, and 4) affective–reflective assessment focusing on character formation. This study contributes to the strengthening of Islamic character education in PGMI through a holistic, applicable, and contextually relevant framework for Islamic arts learning in the 21st century.

This research examines the Penjamasan Pusaka tradition in Aeng Tong Tong, Sumenep, as a sacred ritual that transcends the preservation of heirlooms to serve as a medium for identity reinforcement, social legitimacy, and communal harmony. The study specifically analyzes the construction, negotiation, and transmission of gender roles within the ritual’s power dynamics. Utilizing an ethnographic approach, data were gathered through participant observation, documentation, and in-depth interviews with traditional leaders, village officials, and ritual committees. The findings reveal a complex gender structure: while men dominate the public domain—leading processions and maintaining authoritative legitimacy—women occupy strategic spiritual, symbolic, and logistical roles essential to the ritual's continuity. These relations reflect a complementary pattern that fosters social cohesion, yet simultaneously reveals power asymmetries rooted in local patriarchal culture. The study concludes that Penjamasan Pusaka serves as a vital arena for gender representation where local wisdom facilitates social harmony. This traditional model remains highly relevant to global discourses on cultural sustainability, equality, and the preservation of indigenous heritage in a modernizing world.

Studies on love and tolerance in Qur'anic interpretation have been dominated by the normative-theological perspectives of Middle Eastern exegetes, until now, which do not accommodate social-cultural contexts and local wisdom.

2026-01-08T07:44:05+00:00

This study aims to explain how the Qur’anic values of compassion (raḥmah) and tolerance (tasāmuḥ) can form an inclusive and civilized social ethic through a contextual interpretive approach. Employing Fazlur Rahman’s hermeneutical method, Jasser Auda’s systems-based maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah, and Hans Küng’s global ethic, this research analyzes four key verses: QS al-Anbiyā’ [21]:107, al-Ḥujurāt [49]:13, al-Baqarah [2]:256, and al-Mumtaḥanah [60]:8–9. Classical exegesis (al-Ṭabarī and Ibn Kathīr) is compared with Nusantara exegesis represented by Hamka, Quraish Shihab, and Mahmud Yunus to identify the shift from theological interpretation toward social praxis. The findings show that Tafsir Nusantara articulates a contextual and transformative Qur’anic social ethic. Raḥmah emerges as a normative foundation for justice, equality, and respect for diversity, while tasāmuḥ affirms religious freedom and peaceful coexistence. The integration of Rahman’s, Auda’s, and Küng’s theoretical frameworks constructs a universal, humanistic, and globally oriented Qur’anic ethical paradigm. These results demonstrate that Nusantara-rooted interpretations have significant potential to actualize the principle of raḥmatan lil-‘ālamīn within plural societies and to strengthen a culture of religious moderation
