Neurosains dan Studi Hadis: Analisis Interdisipliner Terhadap Konsep Akal dan Kesadaran Manusia
Research on the relationship between Hadith and neuroscience has generally focused on demonstrating the compatibility between Islamic teachings and scientific findings, resulting in a predominantly linear understanding of the dialogue between the two. However, Hadith studies and neuroscience are grounded in different epistemological foundations, research objects, and objectives. Therefore, their relationship is more appropriately developed through an interdisciplinary approach. This study aims to analyze the concepts of ʿaql (intellect) and consciousness in the Hadith, examine contemporary neuroscientific theories on brain function, cognitive processes, emotion regulation, and human consciousness, and construct a conceptual dialogue between these two disciplines. This research employs a qualitative library-based method using content analysis combined with an interdisciplinary analytical approach. The data were derived from Hadiths concerning ʿaql, and consciousness, as well as relevant contemporary neuroscience literature. The findings indicate that the Hadith presents ʿaql as the foundation of moral and spiritual responsibility, qalb as the center of inner life, and consciousness as encompassing awareness of God, oneself, and others. In contrast, neuroscience explains these functions through biological mechanisms involving neural networks, including the prefrontal cortex, hippocampus, amygdala, anterior cingulate cortex, and the Global Neuronal Workspace Theory. The interdisciplinary analysis demonstrates that these two perspectives do not stand in a relationship of mutual validation but rather complement one another. Hadith provides a normative, ethical, and spiritual understanding of human nature, while neuroscience explains the biological mechanisms underlying cognitive processes, emotion regulation, and consciousness, thereby offering a more comprehensive understanding of human beings as both biological and spiritual entities.

Islam Bukan Untuk Menghancurkan Tapi Menjadi Rahmat Bagi Semua Makhluk
Islam is frequently misrepresented as a religion characterized by extremism and destructiveness, a perception largely shaped by global media portrayals that often link it to acts of violence. In contrast to this depiction, the core message of Islam is rooted in the Qur’anic principle of rahmatan lil ‘ālamīn, signifying mercy for all of creation. This study seeks to examine the essential meaning of rahmatan lil ‘ālamīn as articulated in the Qur’an and Hadith, while highlighting that Islam was revealed to foster a civilization grounded in justice, peace, and compassion rather than destruction. Utilizing a qualitative library research approach, this study analyzes primary Islamic texts, including the Qur’an and authentic Hadith, alongside secondary sources from both classical and modern Muslim scholars. The findings indicate that Islamic teachings consistently emphasize justice, tolerance, compassion, and the safeguarding of all beings without discrimination based on religion, ethnicity, or social status. Moreover, the concept of rahmatan lil ‘ālamīn transcends spiritual dimensions and functions as a guiding ethical framework for social, political, and environmental governance within Islam. Consequently, this study affirms that Islam is intrinsically a religion of universal mercy and well-being, rather than an instrument of violence or destruction. It is hoped that this research will serve as an academic contribution to challenging misrepresentations of Islam and strengthening a narrative that underscores its moderate, humane, and compassionate values.

Religiusitas Baru dan Radikalisme: Moderasi Beragama sebagai Jalan Tengah Era Post-Sekular (Telaah Psikoanalitik Sigmund Freud)
This article examines the dynamics of contemporary religiosity in the post-secular era by highlighting three main expressions: radicalism, new religiosity, and religious moderation. Through Sigmund Freud's psychoanalytic approach, religiosity is understood not merely as a theological or sociological construct but also as an expression of the human subconscious. Radicalism is analyzed as a form of psychological regression and projection of internal conflict, while new religiosity is interpreted as a result of sublimation and existential compensation for the fragmentation of values in modern society. In contrast, religious moderation is positioned as an expression of a mature ego the individual or group's ability to balance instinctual drives (id), moral norms (superego), and social reality. This study employs a descriptive qualitative approach through a literature review of Freud’s works and contemporary literature on post-secularism. It aims to show that religious moderation is not only a socio-political strategy but also a psychological necessity for fostering healthy and reflective religiosity. The findings of this article affirm that moderation is an essential middle path in responding to spiritual and social challenges in the post-secular age.

Integrasi Nilai-nilai Moderasi Beragama dalam PAI Berbasis Multikultural di Indonesia
The increasing phenomenon of intolerance and religious polarization in Indonesia calls for a stronger implementation of religious moderation within the educational system. Islamic Religious Education (PAI), which should serve as a vehicle for cultivating moderate and tolerant character, often remains bound to normative and doctrinal teaching approaches that overlook social and humanitarian aspects. This conceptual study analyzes the relationship between religious moderation and multicultural education and proposes an integrative model suitable for the Indonesian Islamic education context. Employing a library research method with a descriptive-analytical approach, this study explores classical and contemporary literature. Findings reveal that the core values of religious moderation—justice, balance, tolerance, and national commitment—strongly correlate with multicultural principles such as equality, inclusion, and social justice. Integrating these frameworks produces an Islamic Religious Education paradigm that is theological yet humanistic, reflective, and contextually relevant. Thus, Islamic education based on religious moderation and multiculturalism plays a strategic role in shaping a just, tolerant, and diversity-conscious Muslim generation

Pergeseran Otoritas Tafsir Al-Qur'an: Analisis Epistemologi Penafsiran di Era Digital
The rapid advancement of digital technology, particularly Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI), has significantly transformed how Muslims access, understand, and interpret the Qur'an. Traditionally, the authority of Qur'anic interpretation resided in qualified exegetes possessing expertise in Arabic linguistics, Qur'anic sciences, legal theory, and established interpretive methodologies. Today, however, AI-powered digital platforms provide instant explanations of Qur'anic verses, raising critical epistemological questions regarding interpretive authority, methodological validity, and the position of AI in Islamic knowledge production. This study aims to examine the shift in Qur'anic interpretive authority in the digital era and analyze the epistemological implications of Generative AI in contemporary Qur'anic interpretation. Employing a qualitative library research approach, the study draws upon classical Qur'anic exegesis, Islamic epistemology, digital religion studies, and recent scholarship on Artificial Intelligence in Islamic studies. Data were analyzed using content analysis and epistemological analysis. The findings indicate that Generative AI does not replace the role of qualified exegetes but functions as a knowledge mediator that reshapes the distribution, accessibility, and production of religious knowledge. The observed shift represents not a complete transfer of authority from humans to machines but rather a transformation from individual-centered authority toward digitally mediated knowledge ecosystems. Consequently, this study proposes the reconstruction of Qur'anic interpretive epistemology that positions AI as an assistive analytical tool while maintaining interpretive validity through the principles of Qur'anic sciences, scholarly competence, methodological rigor, source transparency, and academic verification.

Hadis Tentang Larangan Suudzan, Tajassus dan Ghibah dalam Perspektif QS. Al-Hujurat Ayat 12: Kajian Hadis dan Implementasinya dalam Kehidupan Sosial
This study aims to analyze the content of Surah Al-Hujurat verse 12 and the hadiths that explain the prohibition of suspicion (su' al-zann), spying on others (tajassus), and backbiting (ghibah). This topic is important because these behaviors are still commonly found in society, both in direct interactions and through social media. The study employs the theory of Islamic ethics, which emphasizes the importance of maintaining social harmony and protecting the dignity of others. The research uses a qualitative method with a library research approach by examining the Qur'an, hadith literature, tafsir books, and relevant academic sources. The findings reveal that Surah Al-Hujurat verse 12 and authentic hadiths provide a strong foundation for Islamic social ethics. The prohibition of suspicion, spying, and backbiting aims to preserve brotherhood, social harmony, and mutual respect among individuals. The implementation of these teachings can be realized through guarding one's speech, avoiding the spread of unverified information, and cultivating positive assumptions toward others. Therefore, the values contained in the verse and hadith remain highly relevant in contemporary social life.

Inovasi Pembelajaran PAI di Era Digital: Strategi Menumbuhkan Minat Belajar Gen-Z Melalui Gamifikasi
The transformation of education in the digital era has had a significant impact on the learning pattern of Islamic Religious Education (PAI), especially in an effort to foster the interest in learning of Generation Z (Gen-Z). Gen-Z students have unique characteristics that are highly adaptive to technology, visuals, and digital interactions, so they need an innovative approach to keep religious learning relevant and interesting. The research method used in this study is library research with a descriptive qualitative approach. The data analysis in this study uses qualitative analysis. The data obtained from various literature were then categorized according to the main themes such as PAI learning innovations, characteristics of generation Z, and the application of gamification in the learning process. The results of the analysis are then presented in the form of interpretive descriptions that describe effective strategies to increase students' interest in learning through innovative digital approaches. The application of educational games also has a positive influence on students' motivation to learn. With the elements of competition and gamification, they become more enthusiastic about participating in lessons because the classroom atmosphere becomes more dynamic and not monotonous. In addition, the challenges in the quizzes encourage students to understand the material better in order to obtain better results. Educational games take advantage of students' natural tendency to compete and achieve achievements, thereby increasing their active participation in learning. Gamification is an effective learning approach in increasing students' motivation and understanding of Islamic Religious Education subjects. However, the application of gamification is inseparable from a number of obstacles, including the limitation of technological means, the lack of teacher competence in designing game-based learning, and the potential for distraction for students who are more interested in the game aspect than the subject matter.

Islam dalam Bingkai Adat Batak: Menjalin Moderasi Beragama melalui Dalihan Na Tolu
This This article examines the role of Dalihan Na Tolu the traditional kinship system of the Batak Toba people in fostering religious moderation through the acculturation of customary values and Islam. Dalihan Na Tolu, meaning “the three-legged hearth,” functions as a social framework guiding interactions through three core principles: somba marhula-hula (respecting in-laws), manat mardongan tubu (exercising caution among clan members), and elek marboru (protecting female relatives/nieces). In Mandailing, Angkola, and Padang Lawas, Batak Muslim communities have integrated these values into religious and customary practices such as wedding rituals (mangarap, manjalo, marpangir) and daily life creating a dynamic synthesis between Islamic teachings and adat without theological compromise. Fieldwork reveals that 85% of respondents affirm Dalihan Na Tolu’s effectiveness in conflict mediation and maintaining interreligious harmony, evident in mutual participation in celebrations like Christmas and Eid al-Fitr. Comparative analysis underscores that sustainable religious moderation emerges not from external imposition but from revitalized local cultural roots. Thus, the revitalization of traditional institutions like Dalihan Na Tolu is a vital strategy for Indonesia’s religious moderation policy, particularly in strengthening social cohesion within religiously plural societies.

Penguatan Moderasi Beragama Sebagai Strategi Mencegah Intoleransi di Indonesia
Religious intolerance and radicalism represent a latent threat to Indonesia's multicultural foundation, particularly among the youth vulnerable to exposure to digital extremist narratives.1 This research aims to analyze the implementation of the Religious Moderation (RM) program promoted by the Ministry of Religious Affairs (Kemenag) as a preventive strategy based on Wasathiyah Islam. Employing critical literature review and policy analysis methods, this article examines the extent to which the RM pillars— including the pillar of thought (tawassut) and movement (i'tidal)—have been effectively implemented through a multilevel approach. Findings indicate that strengthening RM requires synergistic strategies at three levels: formal education (cultural habituation in schools/universities), policy (utilizing the 2024 Religious Harmony Index/IKUB), and the digital space (social media counter-narratives). The implication of this study is the necessity for a more systematic and measurable integration of RM, especially within curriculum and digital platforms, to achieve sustainable IKUB scores. The scientific novelty of this study lies in formulating an adaptive strategic framework that bridges the idealism of Wasathiyah with the reality of contemporary digital challenges, providing specific policy recommendations to fill the gap between concept and the practice of intolerance prevention.

Reinterpretasi Tasawuf Sunni Al-Junayd Al-Baghdadi: Kerangka Spiritualitas Disorientasi Etis Masa Kini
Kajian ini menganalisis pemikiran tasawuf al-Junayd al-Baghdādī, seorang sufi Sunni paling berpengaruh pada abad ketiga Hijriah yang kerap dianggap sebagai pendiri utama madrasah tasawuf moderat. Dengan pendekatan kualitatif-deskriptif berbasis studi pustaka, artikel ini menelusuri fondasi historis, epistemologis, serta dimensi metodologis ajaran al-Junayd, terutama terkait konsep maḥabbah, ma‘rifah, tauhid eksistensial, dan struktur fanā’-baqā’ sebagai kerangka praksis spiritual. Studi ini menemukan bahwa tasawuf al-Junayd memadukan disiplin fikih dan hadis dengan pengalaman spiritual secara harmonis, menjadikannya salah satu model tasawuf paling kompatibel bagi kebutuhan spiritual masyarakat modern yang menghadapi problem disorientasi etis dan keringnya dimensi batin. Relevansi pemikiran al-Junayd terletak pada kemampuannya menyajikan pendekatan keberagamaan transformatif yang tetap berpijak pada teks-teks normatif Islam sekaligus membuka ruang perjumpaan eksistensial antara hamba dan Tuhan.

Peran Masjid sebagai Pusat Pembinaan Umat di Masyarakat Modern
This study aims to analyze the role of the mosque as a center for community development within the dynamics of modern society, which continues to experience rapid social, cultural, and technological changes. The mosque functions not only as a place of worship but also as a center for religious education, a social space, and a platform for economic empowerment. This research employed a qualitative approach using field study methods, including observations, in-depth interviews, and documentation involving mosque administrators, congregation members, and community leaders. The findings indicate that the mosque continues to play a significant role in religious development through various programs such as Qur’an learning sessions, tafsir and hadith studies, thematic lectures, and religious learning circles attended by multiple age groups. In the social dimension, the mosque fulfills its role through community-support activities including zakat distribution, charity programs, assistance for orphans and the needy, and other social services aimed at strengthening community solidarity. Additionally, several mosques have begun utilizing digital technology to expand their outreach through social media and live-streamed religious lectures, although implementation remains limited by human resources and digital literacy constraints. The study also identifies several challenges, including limited funding, suboptimal management, and low youth participation. Despite these obstacles, strong commitment from mosque administrators, supportive congregations, and a religious social environment act as key enabling factors. Overall, the mosque holds substantial potential to continue evolving as an adaptive and relevant religious and social institution in the modern era.

Fiqih Ekonomi Digital: Transaksi Online dalam Perspektif Syariah
This study examines online transaction practices within the digital economy from an Islamic jurisprudence perspective, focusing on the validity of contracts, the potential for gharar, digital payment mechanisms, and the application of justice and transparency in contemporary Islamic commercial law. The rapid development of digital economic systems has introduced new transaction models that require alignment with Islamic principles. Using a qualitative library research approach, this study analyzes classical and contemporary Islamic jurisprudence, fatwas issued by the Indonesian National Sharia Council (DSN-MUI), and relevant digital transaction regulations. The findings indicate that contracts in online transactions are considered valid as long as they fulfill the essential elements of a sale, including mutual consent and clarity regarding the object of the transaction. Potential gharar, commonly arising due to limited physical interaction with products, can be minimized through detailed product descriptions, accurate images, customer reviews, and transparent return policies. Digital payment systems such as e-wallets, bank transfers, and escrow services are permissible as long as they remain free from elements of riba and do not cause harm to either party. The study also reveals that modern digital platforms have implemented consumer protection mechanisms that support the values of fairness, honesty, and transparency mandated in Islamic commercial practice. Thus, the digital economy can operate in harmony with contemporary Islamic jurisprudence and has the potential to strengthen safer, more efficient, and ethically guided transactions. This study affirms that technological innovation is not contradictory to Islamic law as long as core contractual principles and justice remain upheld. Keywords: Digital Islamic Economics, Online Transactions, Shariah, Gharar, Digital Payment.

Integrasi Pendidikan Tauhid dan Karakter dalam Kurikulum Pendidikan Islam Kontemporer
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi dan menganalisis integrasi antara pendidikan tauhid dan pendidikan karakter dalam kurikulum pendidikan Islam kontemporer sebagai respons terhadap tantangan moral dan spiritual peserta didik di era modern. Pendidikan tauhid sebagai inti ajaran Islam tidak hanya dipahami sebagai aspek teologis semata, tetapi juga sebagai landasan filosofis dalam membentuk karakter yang kuat, berintegritas, dan berakhlak mulia. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode studi kepustakaan (library research), serta analisis normatif dan sosiologis untuk mengkaji data dari berbagai literatur dan sumber ilmiah terkait. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa integrasi nilai-nilai tauhid dalam pendidikan karakter mampu memberikan kontribusi signifikan terhadap pembentukan kepribadian siswa yang holistik, meliputi aspek kognitif, afektif, dan psikomotorik. Namun demikian, masih terdapat tantangan dalam pengimplementasiannya, seperti keterbatasan kompetensi guru, minimnya kurikulum yang secara eksplisit mengintegrasikan keduanya, serta kurangnya dukungan lingkungan belajar yang kondusif. Temuan ini merekomendasikan perlunya penguatan pelatihan guru, perumusan kurikulum yang transformatif dan aplikatif, serta keterlibatan aktif keluarga dan masyarakat dalam menciptakan ekosistem pendidikan berbasis tauhid dan karakter. Dengan demikian, pendidikan Islam kontemporer dapat menjadi motor utama dalam melahirkan generasi yang tidak hanya cerdas secara intelektual, tetapi juga kuat secara spiritual dan bermoral.

Revitalization of Islamic Values in Modern Society
This study aims to describe and analyze the phenomenon of the revitalization of Islamic values in modern society, which is currently facing the challenges of globalization, modernization, and rapid technological development. The research employs a qualitative approach using a phenomenological method, focusing on an in-depth understanding of the subjective experiences of individuals in interpreting, applying, and maintaining Islamic values amidst social transformation. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document studies involving religious figures, educators, and members of urban communities. The findings reveal that although society is experiencing an identity crisis and value shifts influenced by global culture and digital media, there remains a strong awareness of the importance of Islamic values as a moral and social guide. The main obstacles in revitalizing Islamic values include the lack of exemplary leadership, the dominance of consumerist and materialistic lifestyles, and the insufficient adaptation of religious outreach (dakwah) to contemporary contexts. The study highlights that Islamic character education, innovative digital dakwah, and the strengthening of family and community roles are effective strategies for reinforcing Islamic values in everyday life. Furthermore, role models from religious leaders and community figures play a crucial role in internalizing these values. Therefore, revitalizing Islamic values in modern society is not only possible but also essential for preserving social harmony, fostering national character, and counteracting the negative impacts of globalization. The study recommends a collaborative effort across sectors to build a social ecosystem that continuously supports the application of Islamic values.

Kritik Terhadap Penerapan Hukum Waris Islam di Indonesia: Antara Tekstualitas dan Kontekstualitas
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji secara kritis penerapan hukum waris Islam di Indonesia dengan menyoroti ketegangan antara pendekatan tekstual yang bersifat normatif dan pendekatan kontekstual yang bersifat aplikatif dalam menjawab dinamika sosial masyarakat modern. Dengan menggunakan metode studi kepustakaan (library research) dan pendekatan yuridis-normatif serta sosiologis-kritis, penelitian ini mengungkap bahwa penerapan hukum waris dalam praktiknya masih banyak mengandalkan fikih klasik yang tekstual, sebagaimana tertuang dalam Kompilasi Hukum Islam (KHI). Ketentuan pembagian warisan, seperti dua bagian untuk laki-laki dan satu bagian untuk perempuan, seringkali diterapkan tanpa mempertimbangkan realitas kontemporer seperti kesetaraan gender, kontribusi ekonomi perempuan, serta struktur keluarga modern. Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa sebagian masyarakat mulai mengadaptasi hukum waris secara kontekstual melalui musyawarah kekeluargaan, pertimbangan keadilan, dan kebutuhan masing-masing ahli waris. Temuan ini menunjukkan pentingnya reinterpretasi hukum waris Islam berdasarkan pendekatan maqāṣid al-syarī‘ah guna memastikan keadilan substantif dalam pembagian harta warisan. Oleh karena itu, pembaruan hukum waris yang bersifat responsif terhadap perubahan sosial menjadi kebutuhan mendesak dalam sistem hukum Islam Indonesia. Penelitian ini merekomendasikan perlunya reformulasi regulasi hukum waris berbasis nilai-nilai kontekstual serta penguatan pendidikan hukum Islam progresif sebagai jalan menuju keadilan hukum yang inklusif dan berkelanjutan.

Subjek penelitian adalah mahasiswa PGMI semester akhir yang telah mempelajari mata kuliah perencanaan pembelajaran. Data yang terkumpul dianalisis menggunakan analisis tematik melalui tahapan reduksi data, penyajian data, dan penarikan kesimpulan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pemahaman mahasiswa terhadap Kurikulum Merdeka masih tergolong rendah, terutama dalam aspek penyusunan capaian pembelajaran, tujuan pembelajaran, serta integrasi nilai karakter. Mayoritas mahasiswa masih kesulitan dalam menyusun RPP yang inovatif dan kontekstual. Hambatan utama yang diidentifikasi meliputi minimnya pelatihan praktis, keterbatasan pengetahuan terhadap model pembelajaran inovatif, serta rendahnya literasi teknologi. Implikasi dari temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa penguatan kompetensi profesional mahasiswa sangat diperlukan melalui workshop penyusunan RPP, simulasi microteaching, dan pendampingan intensif oleh dosen maupun praktisi pendidikan. Dengan strategi tersebut, diharapkan mahasiswa PGMI mampu menjadi calon guru yang profesional, kreatif, dan siap menghadapi implementasi Kurikulum Merdeka di Madrasah Ibtidaiyah.

Persepsi Generasi Z terhadap Islam Wasathiyah: Studi Kasus di Perguruan Tinggi Islam Bengkulu Selatan
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis persepsi Generasi Z terhadap Islam Wasathiyah di Perguruan Tinggi Islam Bengkulu Selatan, mengidentifikasi faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi pemahaman dan sikap mereka, serta merumuskan strategi untuk memperkuat internalisasi nilai-nilai moderasi Islam. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode studi kasus. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara mendalam, observasi partisipatif, dan dokumentasi terhadap mahasiswa yang dipilih secara purposive sampling. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pemahaman mahasiswa terhadap Islam Wasathiyah masih bersifat normatif dan belum terinternalisasi secara mendalam dalam perilaku sehari-hari. Mayoritas mahasiswa mengetahui bahwa Islam Wasathiyah mengajarkan sikap moderat, adil, dan toleran, namun kesulitan menerapkannya dalam kehidupan sosial, terutama dalam menghadapi perbedaan dan konflik. Media sosial menjadi faktor yang sangat mempengaruhi persepsi keagamaan mahasiswa, di mana paparan informasi yang tidak selalu kredibel menyebabkan kebingungan dalam membedakan ajaran Islam moderat dengan paham yang ekstrem. Di sisi lain, partisipasi mahasiswa dalam kegiatan kampus yang mendukung moderasi beragama masih rendah, dan pendekatan yang digunakan oleh perguruan tinggi dinilai kurang menarik bagi karakteristik Generasi Z. Penelitian ini merekomendasikan perlunya penguatan pendidikan Islam Wasathiyah melalui pendekatan kreatif, berbasis literasi digital, serta melibatkan mahasiswa secara aktif dalam kampanye moderasi beragama. Dengan demikian, diharapkan nilai-nilai Islam Wasathiyah dapat terinternalisasi tidak hanya sebagai pengetahuan, tetapi juga menjadi bagian dari karakter dan perilaku sosial mahasiswa dalam kehidupan sehari-hari.

Evaluasi Program Sekolah Penggerak dalam Peningkatan Mutu Pendidikan di Indonesia
Peningkatan mutu pendidikan merupakan salah satu prioritas utama dalam agenda pembangunan nasional Indonesia, khususnya dalam menghadapi tantangan global dan era revolusi industri 4.0. Sebagai upaya strategis, pemerintah melalui Kementerian Pendidikan, Kebudayaan, Riset, dan Teknologi meluncurkan Program Sekolah Penggerak (PSP) yang bertujuan untuk mendorong transformasi menyeluruh di lingkungan sekolah. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi pelaksanaan Program Sekolah Penggerak serta menganalisis kontribusinya terhadap peningkatan mutu pendidikan di Indonesia. Menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan jenis penelitian evaluatif berbasis model CIPP (Context, Input, Process, Product), data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara mendalam, observasi partisipatif, dan studi dokumentasi di tiga sekolah yang telah menerapkan PSP. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa PSP mampu mendorong perubahan positif, terutama dalam pola pembelajaran yang lebih berpusat pada siswa, peningkatan kreativitas guru, serta penguatan budaya sekolah yang kolaboratif. Namun, pelaksanaan program masih menghadapi berbagai hambatan seperti keterbatasan infrastruktur, rendahnya literasi digital guru, dan lemahnya dukungan pemerintah daerah. Keberhasilan PSP sangat dipengaruhi oleh kualitas kepemimpinan kepala sekolah, kesiapan sumber daya manusia, serta dukungan masyarakat sekitar. Penelitian ini menegaskan bahwa transformasi pendidikan yang berkelanjutan membutuhkan sinergi berbagai pihak, evaluasi berkelanjutan, serta penyediaan sumber daya yang merata. Temuan ini diharapkan dapat menjadi bahan pertimbangan bagi pembuat kebijakan, sekolah, dan pemangku kepentingan dalam memperkuat implementasi Program Sekolah Penggerak sebagai langkah strategis menuju peningkatan mutu pendidikan yang merata dan berkeadilan di Indonesia.

Moderasi Beragama dalam Perspektif Islam: Menjaga Harmoni dalam Keberagaman
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memahami makna dan implementasi moderasi beragama dalam perspektif Islam sebagai strategi menjaga harmoni dalam keberagaman masyarakat. Latar belakang penelitian ini didasarkan pada maraknya fenomena intoleransi, radikalisme, dan polarisasi sosial yang mengancam persatuan dan kesatuan bangsa. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode fenomenologi untuk menggali pengalaman mendalam para informan yang terdiri dari tokoh agama, pendidik, dan masyarakat umum. Teknik pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui wawancara mendalam, observasi partisipatif, dan dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa moderasi beragama dipahami oleh masyarakat sebagai bagian dari ajaran Islam yang menekankan keseimbangan, keadilan, dan toleransi. Moderasi diwujudkan dalam kehidupan sosial melalui penghormatan terhadap perbedaan, partisipasi dalam kegiatan lintas agama, serta dialog dalam penyelesaian konflik. Penelitian juga menemukan beberapa tantangan dalam implementasi moderasi, antara lain penyebaran paham intoleran di media sosial, lemahnya pemahaman nilai moderasi di kalangan generasi muda, dan kurangnya keteladanan dari sebagian tokoh agama. Adapun faktor pendukung moderasi meliputi peran keluarga, pendidikan agama yang inklusif, keteladanan pemuka masyarakat, serta dukungan kebijakan pemerintah. Penelitian ini juga diperkuat oleh temuan studi terdahulu yang menyatakan bahwa penguatan moderasi beragama memerlukan sinergi multi-aktor dan pendekatan holistik. Kesimpulannya, moderasi beragama dalam perspektif Islam merupakan kunci untuk menciptakan masyarakat yang damai, adil, dan harmonis di tengah keberagaman. Nilai moderasi perlu ditanamkan melalui pendidikan, dakwah damai, serta penguatan literasi keagamaan yang humanis.

Pemikiran Tafsir Kontekstual Nasr Hamid Abu Zayd dan Relevansinya terhadap Kurikulum PAI
Artikel ini mengkaji pemikiran tafsir kontekstual Nasr Hamid Abu Zayd dan relevansinya terhadap pengembangan kurikulum Pendidikan Agama Islam (PAI). Tafsir kontekstual yang ditawarkan Abu Zayd memandang teks Al-Qur’an sebagai produk budaya yang harus ditafsirkan berdasarkan konteks historis, sosial, dan budaya. Pendekatan ini membuka ruang bagi penafsiran yang lebih dinamis, rasional, dan kontekstual dalam merespons tantangan zaman. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode studi pustaka. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa pemikiran Abu Zayd dapat memperkaya pendekatan tafsir dalam kurikulum PAI, khususnya dalam membentuk peserta didik yang berpikir kritis, terbuka, dan kontekstual dalam memahami ajaran Islam.
