GRATITUDE AND ISLAMIC SPIRITUAL INTELLIGENCE AS SOCIAL WELFARE CAPITAL: A STUDY ON INNER PEACE AMONG ISLAMIC COUNSELING AND GUIDANCE STUDENTS AT UIN SUMATERA UTARA
type: item
description: Students' social welfare is an important part of Islamic community development, since psychological stability shapes the quality of their social contribution on campus and in wider society. High academic pressure can disrupt this welfare, making psychological-spiritual capital such as gratitude essential for students' inner peace, including for students of the Islamic Counseling and Guidance Study Program (BPI), Faculty of Da'wah and Communication, Universitas Islam Negeri Sumatera Utara (UINSU). This study analyzes the effect of gratitude within Islamic spiritual intelligence on students' inner peace as an indicator of social welfare. A quantitative approach with an associative-causal method was used. A total of 93 out of 248 students were selected as respondents through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a Likert-scale questionnaire tested for validity and reliability, then analyzed through classical assumption tests and simple linear regression using SPSS version 25. Results show that gratitude has a positive and significant effect on students' inner peace, with a significance value of 0.000 (p < 0.05) and a regression coefficient of 0.625. The coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.567 indicates that 56.7% of the variation in students' inner peace is explained by gratitude. These findings highlight the importance of strengthening gratitude and Islamic spirituality to develop students' social-psychological welfare within Islamic higher education.

THE KIAI AS A COMMUNITY RELATIONS AGENT IN SUSTAINING THE EXISTENCE OF ISLAMIC BOARDING SCHOOLS: A CASE STUDY AT PONDOK PESANTREN BURHANUL ABRAR BESUKI, SITUBONDO
type: item
description: This study examines the role of the kiai (Islamic boarding school leader) as an agent of community relations (hubungan masyarakat) in sustaining the institutional existence of Pondok Pesantren Burhanul Abrar, Besuki, Situbondo, East Java, Indonesia. Situated within the framework of Islamic community development and institutional communication, the study analyzes the strategies, patterns, and social dynamics through which the kiai builds and maintains relationships with surrounding communities, alumni networks, government actors, and the broader public. A qualitative research design with a case study approach was employed. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with pesantren administrators, student guardians (wali santri), alumni, and community figures selected through purposive sampling, complemented by participatory observation of da'wah activities, social services, and community interactions, as well as institutional documentation. Data analysis followed the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña comprising data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing, with validity ensured through source, method, and time triangulation. The findings reveal that the kiai occupies a strategically central position in the pesantren's community relations system, functioning simultaneously as a charismatic leader, moral communicator, social capital builder, and cultural da'wah actor. The kiai's community relations strategies encompass personal communication, cultural engagement through local Islamic traditions, moral exemplarity, external da'wah activities across multiple regions, and alumni network strengthening through the IKSABA organization. These strategies have yielded measurable outcomes, including a growth in student enrollment from 220 santri in 2023 to 255 in 2024 and 290 in 2025, reflecting increasing public trust and the deepening social legitimacy of the institution. The study concludes that the kiai's role as a cultural public relations age…

HUMANITARIAN DA'WAH MESSAGES ON INSTAGRAM: CONTENT ANALYSIS OF @salimafillah_official FOR ACEH TAMIANG RELIEF
type: item
description: This study aims to analyse humanitarian da'wah messages on Instagram in the context of fundraising for the Aceh Tamiang disaster through the @salimafillah_official account. The increasing use of social media as a platform for humanitarian campaigns has expanded the function of da'wah beyond mobilising public donations to strengthening spiritual awareness and social solidarity. This study addresses three research questions concerning the variation of humanitarian da'wah messages, the consistency of message delivery, and the dominance of fundraising documentation compared with substantive da'wah messages. A descriptive qualitative approach employing content analysis was applied to 2 Instagram posts, including captions, images, and videos uploaded during the fundraising campaign. Data were collected through documentation of Instagram content and a literature review, and analysed using thematic content analysis. The findings reveal that humanitarian da'wah messages are consistently communicated through persuasive narratives integrating emotional, rational, and religious appeals. However, the variation of messages remains limited and tends to be repetitive. In addition, the content is predominantly focused on documenting fundraising activities rather than providing deeper spiritual guidance for disaster victims. Nevertheless, reflective narratives promoting empathy, compassion, and public participation remain evident throughout the campaign. The study concludes that Instagram-based humanitarian da'wah functions as an effective medium for moral communication and social mobilisation, although greater diversity and depth of da'wah messages are needed to optimise both humanitarian and spiritual objectives.

PARENTAL ROLES IN SHAPING CHILDREN'S EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE AMID SOCIOCULTURAL CHANGE: A QUALITATIVE STUDY OF MUSLIM FAMILIES IN NAGORI BAH JAMBI III
type: item
description: The accelerating pace of sociocultural change, particularly driven by rapid technological advancement, presents distinctive challenges to children's emotional development within Muslim family contexts. This study examines the role of parents in shaping children's emotional intelligence (kecerdasan emosi) amid sociocultural change, with a focus on Muslim families in Nagori Bah Jambi III. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, with data collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation involving three research informants — two parents and one adolescent child — selected through purposive sampling. Data analysis followed the interactive model of Miles and Huberman, encompassing data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, with validity ensured through source triangulation. The findings reveal that parental roles in shaping children's emotional intelligence manifest through five primary dimensions: as guides (pembimbing), motivators, facilitators, supervisors, and moral exemplars (suri teladan). Parents accompany their children in a calm and dialogic manner, provide emotional support during moments of difficulty or failure, create a conducive home environment, supervise gadget use communicatively, and instil social and cultural values through personal exemplarity rooted in Islamic ethics. The study concludes that parental presence is indispensable in cultivating children's emotional intelligence, as it contributes significantly to the development of self-awareness, self-regulation, empathy, and social skills amid the dynamics of sociocultural change. The findings offer practical implications for Muslim families, educators, and policymakers in designing adaptive and values-based parenting approaches in the digital era.

TETANUS TOXOID VACCINATION AS A PREMARITAL ADMINISTRATIVE REQUIREMENT IN ISLAMIC COMMUNITY GOVERNANCE: A MASLAHAH MURSALAH ANALYSIS AT KUA PALENGAAN, PAMEKASAN
type: item
description: Premarital Tetanus Toxoid (TT) vaccination serves as both a public health intervention and an instrument of Islamic community governance, raising important questions about the integration of health policy with Islamic legal principles. This study examines the implementation of TT immunization as an administrative requirement for marriage registration at the Religious Affairs Office (Kantor Urusan Agama/KUA) of Palengaan District, Pamekasan Regency, East Java, Indonesia, through the analytical lens of maslahah mursalah. A descriptive qualitative field study was employed, integrating sociological and normative approaches. Primary data were collected through semi-structured interviews with nine informants — including the Head of KUA Palengaan, KUA administrative staff, healthcare workers at the Palengaan Community Health Center (Puskesmas), and prospective brides and grooms — complemented by direct observation and institutional documentation. Secondary data were drawn from official regulations, fiqh literature, and previous scholarly studies. The findings reveal that TT immunization is predominantly perceived by the community as an administrative formality rather than a meaningful health intervention, owing to limited public health literacy and inadequate policy socialization. From the perspective of maslahah mursalah, the TT vaccination policy generates significant public benefit (maslahah), particularly in protecting human life (hifz al-nafs) and preserving progeny (hifz al-nasl) — two of the five primary objectives of Islamic law (maqasid al-shari'ah). The policy is classified at the level of hajiyyah (secondary functional welfare), constituting a preventive jurisprudential strategy (sadd al-dhara'i') against reproductive health risks for mothers and newborns. However, a gap persists between the policy's normative Islamic legal legitimacy and its practical social implementation. The study contributes to interdisciplinary scholarship on the integration of public heal…

MUSLIM COMMUNITY OPINION ON THE FREE NUTRITIOUS MEAL PROGRAM AS A SOCIAL WELFARE POLICY: A STUDY IN SEI SENTOSA VILLAGE, LABUHANBATU REGENCY
type: item
description: This study examines public opinion within a Muslim community regarding the Free Nutritious Meal Program (Program Makan Bergizi Gratis/MBG) as a government social welfare policy in Sei Sentosa Village, Panai Hulu District, Labuhanbatu Regency. Situated within the framework of Islamic community development and social welfare, the study explores community experiences, perceptions, and responses toward the program's implementation. A qualitative method with a phenomenological approach was employed. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with seven informants comprising a program coordinator, a village secretary, a teacher, two parents, and two students as program beneficiaries, complemented by field observation and documentation. The findings indicate that community opinion toward the MBG Program is generally positive. The program is perceived as effective in fulfilling students' nutritional needs, improving learning concentration and motivation, and providing economic relief for families by reducing household expenditure. The program also contributes to improving community welfare, particularly in health and education — two dimensions closely aligned with Islamic values of human dignity (karamah) and collective well-being (maslahah). However, implementation challenges remain, including delays in food distribution, limited menu variation, and inconsistent food quality. Public opinion manifests not only as support but also as constructive social critique reflecting the community's role as active participants in policy governance. This study concludes that the success of the MBG Program is strongly influenced by implementation effectiveness, service quality, and program socialization, and recommends continuous evaluation to optimize its social welfare outcomes.

DA'WAH VALUES IN THE MARSIALAPARI TRADITION OF THE MANDAILING COMMUNITY IN GONTING PEGE VILLAGE, TAPANULI SELATAN REGENCY
type: item
description: This study aims to identify the da'wah values embedded within the Marsialapari culture practiced in Gonting Pege Village, Aek Bilah District, Tapanuli Selatan Regency. Marsialapari is a mutual cooperation tradition among the Mandailing community, primarily practiced during rice planting and harvesting activities. This study employs a qualitative method with an ethnographic approach, using observation, in depth interviews, and documentation as data collection techniques. Informants included a traditional leader, a religious leader, a Marsialapari practitioner, a village government official, and a youth participant. The findings reveal that Marsialapari culture embodies five interrelated da'wah values, namely ukhuwah or brotherhood, at ta'awun or mutual assistance, ikhlas or sincerity, amanah or trustworthiness and responsibility, and silaturahmi or the maintenance of social ties, each of which is reinforced through relevant verses of the Quran and hadith of the Prophet. Despite significant social change driven by agricultural technology and wage based labor systems, the Gonting Pege community continues to preserve this tradition, which simultaneously strengthens social relationships and family bonds. These findings indicate that Marsialapari functions as a form of da'wah bil hal, or da'wah through action, integrating Islamic teachings into daily life without displacing the local wisdom passed down across generations. This study contributes to the broader discourse on local culture based da'wah in Indonesia and underscores the importance of preserving such traditions amid ongoing modernization.

EMPATHY, PARTICIPATORY DECISION MAKING, AND TASK DELEGATION IN STUDENT NUTRIPRENEUR TEAM EFFECTIVENESS
type: item
description: The success of student teams in developing nutripreneurship activities is determined not only by technical competence but also by leadership abilities that foster effective teamwork. This study examines the influence of empathy, participatory decision making, and task delegation on team effectiveness from the perspective of student nutripreneur leadership. A quantitative correlational approach was employed using random sampling, involving 30 students from Universitas Pembangunan Nasional "Veteran" Jakarta. Data were collected through Likert-scale questionnaires, strengthened by open-ended questions regarding students' teamwork experiences, and analyzed using Pearson correlation and multiple linear regression. The results show that empathy had a positive and significant effect on team effectiveness (r = 0.551; p = 0.001), participatory decision making demonstrated a similar positive effect (r = 0.418; p = 0.011), and task delegation showed the strongest relationship (r = 0.565; p = 0.001). Empathy was also significantly correlated with participatory decision making (r = 0.415; p = 0.011) and task delegation (r = 0.406; p = 0.013), while participatory decision making and task delegation were positively related (r = 0.448; p = 0.007). Together, these three variables accounted for 38.7% of the variance in team effectiveness (Adjusted R² = 0.387). These findings indicate that student nutripreneur leadership requires a combination of emotional, participatory, and managerial competencies to build team effectiveness. This study emphasizes that strengthening student nutripreneur leadership can be achieved through improving empathetic communication, fostering collaborative decision making, and distributing tasks based on team members' competencies.

MUSLIM IDENTITY AND DEMOCRATIC SOCIALISM: READING ZOHRAN MAMDANI'S MAYORAL VICTORY IN NEW YORK CITY
type: item
description: This study analyzes Zohran Mamdani's victory in the 2025 New York City mayoral election, a result widely regarded as a triumph for the city's pluralistic society given Mamdani's identity as a Muslim and a member of a minority group. Throughout the campaign, Mamdani faced sustained attacks from political opponents, both Republicans and fellow Democrats, who targeted his Muslim identity directly. This study employs a qualitative method, drawing on books and journal articles to examine the foundations of socialist thought, supplemented by international news coverage to trace Mamdani's campaign strategy. The findings show that Mamdani was elected as the 111th mayor of New York with 50.4% of the vote, far surpassing Andrew Cuomo and Curtis Sliwa. This outcome indicates strong public trust in a democratic socialist platform centered on prosperity, including reduced housing costs and lower prices for basic necessities. For non-Muslim voters, Mamdani's religious identity was not perceived as an obstacle to leadership; rather, identity politics was seen merely as a tactic used by opponents to influence the election. For Muslim voters, rising costs of living, transportation difficulties, and housing rents were understood as collective burdens rather than the responsibility of any single group—an outlook aligned with both democratic socialist principles and Islamic values. These findings suggest that Mamdani's faith bears no relation to any erosion of democratic values, contrary to claims made by his political rivals. Ultimately, Mamdani's victory demonstrates his capacity to position New York City as an inclusive city, particularly for its lower-middle-class population.

ISLAMIC COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION IN ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION: A STUDY OF THE GERAKAN PEDULI LINGKUNGAN (GPL) IN PLASTIC WASTE CONTROL IN COASTAL WEST ACEH, INDONESIA
type: item
description: This study examines the role of community participation in environmental conservation through the Gerakan Peduli Lingkungan (GPL), a youth-based community movement engaged in plastic waste control in the coastal area of Meureubo Subdistrict, West Aceh Regency, Indonesia. Situated within the framework of Islamic community development, the study analyzes GPL's contributions to coastal environmental management, the level and patterns of community participation, and the barriers encountered in program implementation. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, with fieldwork conducted in February 2026. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with 11 informants — including GPL administrators, village officials, and local residents — and complemented by direct field observations. The findings reveal that GPL contributes through beach clean-up activities, environmental education and awareness campaigns, social media outreach, and community economic empowerment via the productive utilization of plastic waste. Community participation was found to be relatively strong, though unevenly distributed across different social groups, with the main barriers including limited public awareness, inadequate facilities and infrastructure, and insufficient financial support. The novelty of this study lies in its analysis of a community-based environmental movement in a coastal Muslim-majority setting as an integrated model of social welfare and sustainable development, combining social, educational, communicative, and economic approaches rooted in collective community action. The findings offer practical implications for local governments and community organizations in strengthening participatory waste governance, while enriching theoretical discussions on Islamic community development and grassroots environmental stewardship.

ANALYSIS ECONOMIC IMPACT OF PAYA BAKUNG BRIDGE CONSTRUCTION ON ACCESSIBILITY PATTERNS AND FARMERS' WELFARE
type: item
description: Rural infrastructure development plays a crucial role in improving community welfare, particularly for farmers who rely heavily on transportation access to distribute their agricultural products. This study aims to analyze the impact of bridge construction on changes in accessibility and farmer welfare in Paya Bakung Village, Hamparan Perak District. This study employed a qualitative approach using descriptive analysis methods. Five informants, including landowners and farm laborers, were selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, field observations, and documentation. Data analysis employed the Miles and Huberman interactive model, which encompasses data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. Validity was ensured through source triangulation. The results indicate that bridge construction significantly improved community accessibility. Travel time to market was shortened, transportation costs decreased, and crop quality was maintained, resulting in more stable selling prices. These changes contributed to increased household incomes for farmers, reduced workloads for farm laborers, and strengthened social relations within the village community. From an Islamic societal development perspective, these improvements reflect the achievement of the concept of Falah, which refers to material and spiritual well-being characterized by increased security, solidarity, and social cohesion. Therefore, bridge construction not only functions as physical infrastructure but also as an instrument of community empowerment that contributes to improving the economic and social welfare of rural communities.

ISLAMIC COMMUNITY EMPOWERMENT THROUGH MICRO, SMALL, AND MEDIUM ENTERPRISES (MSMEs) DEVELOPMENT: THE STRATEGY OF MUHAMMADIYAH REGIONAL LEADERSHIP IN MEDAN
type: item
description: This study examines the Islamic community empowerment strategy implemented by the Muhammadiyah Regional Leadership (Pimpinan Daerah Muhammadiyah/PDM) in developing Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in the Mandala By Pass area of Medan City. As a religious-based community organization, Muhammadiyah plays a significant role as an agent of community economic development, particularly in addressing challenges faced by MSMEs such as limited capital access, low managerial capacity, and minimal digital technology utilization. This study employed a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation involving PDM administrators and MSME actors, and analyzed using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman, with source and method triangulation for validation. The findings reveal that the empowerment strategy was carried out systematically and participatorily across three dimensions: (1) strategic planning based on socio-economic mapping and community needs assessment; (2) sustained mentoring and guidance through management training, digital marketing, and periodic evaluation; and (3) implementation of community economic programs grounded in Islamic economic values such as honesty (ṣidq), trustworthiness (amānah), and social responsibility. This study contributes a replicable model of value-based Islamic community development led by religious organizations at the local level.

THE DYNAMICS OF HIJRI MONTH DETERMINATION IN INDONESIA: RELIGIOUS AUTHORITY, PLURALISM, AND SOCIAL COHESION
type: item
description: The determination of the start of the Hijri month is a fundamental aspect of Islamic religious practice, particularly in setting the dates for religious observances such as Ramadan, Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha. However, differences in determination methods and criteria often give rise to social dynamics within Muslim communities. This article aims to analyse the dynamics of determining the start of the Hijri month and its impact on the social cohesion of the Muslim community. This study employs a qualitative approach based on a literature review, analysing scholarly literature, institutional documents, and previous research through the framework of the sociology of religion, particularly theories of social cohesion and religious authority. The analysis focuses on how epistemological differences, the role of institutions, and socio-cultural contexts shape religious practices and social relations. The findings indicate that differences in Indonesia regarding the determination of the start of the Hijri month are influenced by variations in the interpretation of religious texts and astronomical criteria, as well as the authority of religious institutions. These differences have an ambivalent impact on social cohesion: they can trigger fragmentation, symbolic conflict, and polarisation, yet they also foster tolerance, pluralism, and mechanisms of social adaptation. This research contributes by shifting the focus of study from fiqh and astronomical approaches towards a sociological approach that places social cohesion at the centre of the analysis.

RECONSTRUCTING THE PHILOSOPHY OF ISLAMIC ECO-SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP: PESANTREN-BASED COASTAL DEVELOPMENT AS A PARADIGM OF ETHICAL TRANSFORMATION
type: item
description: The structural paradox of coastal poverty in Muslim-majority communities lies in abundant marine resources alongside economic marginalization and environmental degradation. While Islamic institutions have historically contributed to social welfare, their role in contemporary sustainability discourse remains underexplored. This study examines pesantren-based coastal development as a model of ethical transformation to reconstruct the philosophical foundations of Islamic eco-social entrepreneurship. Using a thematic and interpretative analysis, the findings reveal that pesantren function as socio-economic catalysts beyond their religious roles. Santri-led enterprises diversify livelihoods, reduce reliance on exploitative middlemen, and promote environmentally responsible practices such as sustainable fishing and waste management. Triangulated data indicate a shift from exploitative to conservation-oriented behavior. The model is grounded in three dimensions: khilafah (ecological stewardship), integration of religious knowledge and skills, and commitment to maslahah and mizan. This integrative approach positions pesantren as ethical-economic actors, redefining poverty alleviation as moral-ecological reconstruction within a sustainable Islamic development paradigm.

ADAPTIVE DA'WAH STRATEGY IN INCREASING CONGREGATION PARTICIPATION IN ROUTINE STUDIES AT THE ISLAMIC STUDY ASSEMBLY DARUSSHOFA MEDAN
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the da'wah strategies implemented by the Majelis Taklim Darusshofa Medan to increase congregational participation in routine religious study activities. The study used a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data collection was conducted through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation studies involving administrators, preachers, and congregational members. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis techniques to identify key patterns and themes. Using descriptive qualitative methods, data collection was carried out through participatory observation, documentation studies, and in-depth interviews with 15 informants consisting of assembly administrators, preachers, and active and passive congregations in order to obtain a comprehensive perspective. The results indicate that effective da'wah strategies include personal and community approaches, innovative study programs, and the use of digital technology as a means of disseminating information. These strategies contribute to increased awareness, motivation, and sustained congregational participation in routine religious study activities. This study emphasizes the importance of adaptive da'wah practices oriented to community needs in strengthening religious engagement within the majelis taklim environment. The success of increasing congregational participation was driven by the integration of contextual da'wah strategies that combine a bil-hikmah (persuasive) approach with the use of digital media as a means of dissemination and coordination. These findings provide practical contributions for da'wah institution managers in mapping the needs of urban congregations, while also providing theoretical insights into the effectiveness of persuasive communication in strengthening socio-religious cohesion in urban environments.

COMMUNITY-BASED TELENURSING TRAINING ON STIMULATION, DETECTION, AND EARLY INTERVENTION OF CHILD GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT (SDIDTK) FOR PAUD TEACHERS AND POSYANDU CADRES IN STUNTING PREVENTION
type: item
description: This study addresses stunting as a multidimensional community development issue that requires collaborative efforts at the grassroots level. Stunting, caused by chronic malnutrition and recurrent infections during the first 1,000 days of life, remains a significant challenge in Indonesia. Strengthening the capacity of community-based actors such as PAUD teachers and Posyandu cadres is essential for early detection and prevention. However, their limited knowledge of early screening practices hinders effective intervention. This study aims to analyze and compare the capacity improvement of PAUD teachers and Posyandu cadres through community-based SDIDTK telenursing training. A quasi-experimental method with a non-equivalent control group design was employed. The sample consisted of active PAUD teachers and Posyandu cadres selected through purposive sampling, all of whom had access to digital devices for training. Data were analyzed using independent sample t-tests. The results showed no statistically significant difference between the two groups (p = 0.874). However, both groups experienced an increase in knowledge after the training. These findings indicate that SDIDTK telenursing training is effective as a community-based capacity-building approach and can equally empower different community actors in supporting early stunting detection.

QUR'ANIC MANUSCRIPTS OF TERENGGANU AND ACEH (CODICOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF QUR'ANIC MANUSCRIPTS A47 AND A694 FROM THE PNRI COLLECTION)
type: item
description: This study examines the codicological characteristics of two ancient Qur'anic manuscripts, A47 from Terengganu and A694 from Aceh, which are part of the collection of the National Library of the Republic of Indonesia (PNRI). Using a qualitative approach with descriptive-analytical methods, this research analyzes the physical aspects of the manuscripts including calligraphy, illumination, paper type, binding techniques, and additional texts, as well as textual aspects covering rasm, qira'at, dhabt, tajwid, and waqf signs. The results show that both manuscripts reflect a unique synthesis between Islamic traditions and local cultures. Manuscript A47 displays complex geometric patterns with gold color dominance, reflecting the aesthetics of Terengganu, while A694 shows minimalist floral illuminations with dominant red and black colors, characteristic of Acehnese culture. Textual analysis reveals variations in rasm and qira'at, with A694 tending to be more conservative in Rasm Uthmani and following certain qira'at such as Ibn Amir and Hamzah, while A47 is more accommodative to isbat alif and follows the majority qira'at of 'Asim via Hafs. This study concludes that these manuscripts are not only religious texts but also cultural artifacts that reflect the dynamics of transmission and adaptation of the Qur'anic text according to the needs of Muslim communities in Terengganu and Aceh, as well as contributing to the understanding of the history of Islamic civilization in the Archipelago.

RELIGIOUS LEADERS AS CULTURAL COMMUNICATORS: AN ANALYSIS OF BEGAWE LOCAL WISDOM IN SOCIO-RELIGIOUS COMMUNICATION IN LOMBOK
type: item
description: This study examines the communicative role of religious leaders in mediating the relationship between Islamic values and local cultural practices within the Begawe tradition of the Sasak community in Lombok. Existing scholarship on religious authority and local wisdom has largely overlooked the discursive mechanisms through which socio religious meanings are negotiated in communal ritual contexts therefore, this study aims to address this gap by analysing how religious narratives are constructed and strategically communicated. Employing a qualitative design grounded in critical discourse analysis, data were collected through in depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis involving five key informants representing religious, customary, and community leadership. The findings reveal that religious leaders function as cultural brokers who articulate adaptive Islamic discourses by integrating scriptural references, symbolic ritual language, and moral exhortations that legitimise tradition while responding to ongoing socio religious transformations. This mediation process fosters social cohesion and reinforces collective identity, yet also reflects contestations shaped by modernisation and differing Islamic orientations, particularly between Aswaja and Salafi groups. Overall, the study contributes to communication studies and the anthropology of religion by conceptualising local religious discourse as a dynamic cultural strategy for negotiating continuity and change in contemporary Muslim societies.

DOWRY DIFFERENTIATION AND SOCIAL MEANING IN MUSLIM COMMUNITIES: A STUDY OF CUSTOMARY AND ISLAMIC LAW IN TANJUNG PAUH
type: item
description: This study examines the social meaning and legal interaction of dowry differentiation within Muslim communities in Tanjung Pauh, focusing on the relationship between customary law and Islamic law. While previous studies on dowry in Indonesia have largely emphasized normative or economic aspects, limited attention has been given to how legal pluralism operates in everyday social practices, particularly when customary norms introduce distinctions not explicitly regulated in Islamic jurisprudence. This research adopts an empirical legal approach with a qualitative descriptive design. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with customary leaders, religious figures, village authorities, and community members, complemented by observation and document analysis. The findings indicate that dowry determination is governed by a collective and institutionalized customary system, in which virgins receive one gram of gold and widows receive half a gram. This differentiation is consistently applied and widely accepted as a cultural symbol reflecting marital experience rather than as a form of social inequality. From the perspective of Islamic law, the practice is considered permissible as it upholds the principles of mutual consent, fairness, and the absence of coercion. This study demonstrates that the interaction between customary law and Islamic law results in a form of normative convergence, where local traditions are accommodated within Islamic legal values. It contributes to the discourse on legal pluralism by highlighting that culturally embedded practices can function harmoniously without undermining gender dignity. Practically, the study provides insight into how community-based norms shape the implementation of Islamic family law in diverse social contexts.

WAQF FOREST AS A STRATEGY FOR REFORESTATION: A QUALITATIVE STUDY OF ECOLOGICAL SUSTAINABILITY IN ACEH
type: item
description: Aceh has one of the largest forest areas in Sumatra. However, Aceh has lost approximately 117,000 hectares in the last 7 years. Although the Aceh government has addressed forest destruction through programs run by the environment and forestry agencies and regulatory support from Indonesian laws and Qanun, these measures have not been effective. In addressing this issue, Islam has a solution-oriented and relevant approach to tackling forest destruction through the concept of Waqf Forest. This study examined the implementation, positive impacts, and challenges, and will produce recommendations for the development of waqf forests in Aceh province. This study used a qualitative approach with a case study method to explore in depth the waqf forest model as a forest reforestation strategy in Aceh. Overall, this study highlights that the waqf forest model represents a promising strategy for addressing deforestation and supporting reforestation efforts in Aceh Province, while also identifying key challenges that hinder its optimal development. Contributing empirical insights into waqf forest implementation in Aceh, an area largely underexplored in prior literature. This research demonstrates that waqf forests hold significant potential as an Islamic philanthropic mechanism for advancing ecological sustainability and long-term forest conservation in the region.

THE HIERARCHY OF INFLUENCE IN RELIGIOUS NEWS COVERAGE AND ITS IMPLICATIONS FOR ISLAMIC COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DURING THE 2019 INDONESIAN PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION
type: item
description: This study examines the hierarchy of influence in religious news coverage on Republika.co.id and JawaPos.com during the 2019 Indonesian Presidential Election and its implications for Islamic community development. The Hierarchy of Influence model, developed by Pamela J. Shoemaker and Stephen D. Reese, is employed to analyze the multi-level factors shaping religious media content. This qualitative research uses text observation, interviews, and documentation to identify the influences affecting religious reporting in both online media platforms. The findings reveal that Republika.co.id actively highlighted particular religious issues during the election, while JawaPos.com presented religious coverage in a more sporadic manner. Religious news production in both media outlets was shaped by influences at the individual, routine, organizational, extra-media, and ideological levels. At the individual level, journalists were influenced by Islamic values, professional norms, and worker orientations. At the organizational level, Republika.co.id was influenced by media ownership involvement in political networks, while JawaPos.com demonstrated limited ownership intervention. Extra-media influences, particularly political interest groups, were more visible in Republika.co.id. At the ideological level, both media outlets maintained hegemonic narratives that shaped public perception and religious discourse. This study highlights the strategic role of media in constructing religious narratives within Muslim society and emphasizes the importance of responsible religious reporting to foster social cohesion, democratic participation, and sustainable Islamic community development.

MACROECONOMIC DYNAMICS AND COMMUNITY WELFARE: AN EMPIRICAL STUDY OF PURCHASING POWER IN MEDAN CITY
type: item
description: This study analyzes the influence of key macroeconomic factors on community purchasing power as an important indicator of social and economic welfare in urban areas. Specifically, it examines the effects of Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP), inflation, and the Regional Minimum Wage on purchasing power in Medan City, Indonesia. Purchasing power reflects the community’s ability to meet basic and non-basic needs and plays a strategic role in sustaining social stability and improving living standards within urban society. The study employs a quantitative approach using multiple linear regression analysis based on secondary monthly data from 2019 to 2023 obtained from the Central Statistics Agency. The results show that inflation has a negative and significant effect on purchasing power, while GRDP and the Regional Minimum Wage have positive and significant effects. Simultaneously, the three variables significantly influence purchasing power, with an R-squared value of 0.691, indicating that 69.1% of the variation in purchasing power is explained by the model. These findings highlight the importance of inclusive economic growth, sustainable wage policies, and effective inflation control in strengthening community welfare. This study contributes to social and economic development discourse by providing empirical evidence to support public policies aimed at improving the purchasing power and well-being of urban communities.

SHARIA ACCOUNTING PRACTICES AND FINANCIAL ACCOUNTABILITY IN ISLAMIC MICROFINANCE INSTITUTIONS: A CASE STUDY OF BAITUL MAAL WA TAMWIL IN MEDAN CITY
type: item
description: This study examines the role of sharia accounting practices in strengthening transparency and accountability of financial reporting in Islamic microfinance institutions, with a particular focus on Baitul Maal wa Tamwil (BMT) in Medan City. As community-based financial institutions, BMTs play a strategic role in supporting socio-economic empowerment while adhering to Islamic principles of justice, honesty, and trustworthiness. Sharia accounting is therefore not only a technical reporting mechanism but also an ethical framework that shapes responsible financial governance within Islamic communities. This research adopts a qualitative case study approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with BMT managers, internal auditors, sharia supervisory board members, and staff, complemented by document analysis of financial reports and relevant regulatory guidelines. The findings reveal that the implementation of sharia accounting contributes significantly to improving transparency through detailed transaction recording, clear disclosure of sharia-based contracts, and separation of social and commercial funds. Accountability is strengthened through internal supervision, sharia compliance mechanisms, and adherence to PSAK Syariah and AAOIFI standards. Nevertheless, the study also identifies challenges, particularly limited human resource capacity and the lack of integrated accounting systems. This study contributes to the discourse on Islamic community development by demonstrating how sharia accounting can support accountable and transparent financial governance in Islamic microfinance institutions.

ISLAMIC-BASED MEDIATION FOR STRENGTHENING FAMILY RESILIENCE: A COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT APPROACH TO DAUGHTER-IN-LAW AND MOTHER-IN-LAW CONFLICT
type: item
description: This study examines the role of Islamic-based mediation in strengthening family resilience within Muslim communities, particularly in conflicts between daughters-in-law and mothers-in-law. Such conflicts represent a significant social issue that not only affects household harmony but also influences broader community stability. This research aims to analyze mediation practices and formulate a community-oriented mediation model grounded in Islamic family law principles. Using a qualitative multi-site case study approach, the research involved eight Muslim families experiencing in-law conflicts, as well as mediators including religious leaders and institutional actors. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis, and analyzed thematically. The findings reveal that conflicts are primarily triggered by parental interference, differences in values and parenting practices, and economic tensions. Effective mediation is characterized by the integration of Islamic values such as musyawarah (deliberation), ishlah (reconciliation), and justice; the balancing of power relations; and the establishment of clear agreements regarding roles and communication. These mediation practices contribute not only to conflict resolution but also to strengthening family resilience in psychological, social, and spiritual dimensions. This study proposes an Islamic relational mediation model that positions mediation as a community-based strategy for reinforcing social cohesion and family resilience. The findings highlight the importance of culturally grounded mediation in supporting sustainable community development within Muslim societies.

EMPOWERING MARGINALIZED CHILDREN THROUGH COMMUNITY-BASED EDUCATION: EVIDENCE FROM GAJAHWONG SCHOOL IN LEDHOK TIMOHO, YOGYAKARTA
type: item
description: Marginalized children are a vulnerable group who often experience limited access to education, a decent learning environment, and social support. The involvement of Gajahwong School as a form of community empowerment is crucial for children's well-being. This study aims to analyze two aspects: First, this study analyzes the educational conditions of marginalized children in Ledhok Timoho Village before the presence of Gajahwong School. Second, this study analyzes the role of Gajahwong School in the empowerment process of marginalized children in Ledhok Timoho Village. Using qualitative methods with purposive sampling techniques. The research subjects included the principal, educators, parents/guardians of students, and students of Gajahwong School. Data were obtained through observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings show that before the presence of Gajahwong School, children in Ledhok Timoho Village generally faced various problems, such as low motivation to learn, limited access to education, lack of parental support, and a social environment that was less supportive of child development. Gajahwong School provides an alternative non-formal learning space that focuses on local curriculum-based education. Gajahwong School plays a role in raising awareness and the importance of education for marginalized children. With the involvement of educators, volunteers, families, and communities, education becomes more accessible and relevant to previously marginalized students. Although this study had limitations in gathering informants, it was able to demonstrate the conditions of marginalized children before and after the school's establishment. Therefore, this research goes beyond simply addressing the beneficiaries and strengthening the bottom-up approach to developing alternative education.

PEER SUPPORT IN PSYCHOSOCIAL RECOVERY: A QUALITATIVE STUDY OF NAPZA (SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS) REHABILITATION AT THE RUMOH GEUTANYOE ACEH FOUNDATION
type: item
description: Peer support is widely recognized as a key component in the recovery of individuals with substance use disorders (SUD), yet its role in community-based rehabilitation within socio-religious such as in Aceh contexts remains underexplored. This study examines the contribution of peer support and its psychosocial impacts at the Rumoh Geutanyoe Aceh Foundation. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation involving eight informants (four active clients, two peer counselors, one former client and one coordinator program) and analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s interactive model. The findings indicate that peer support significantly enhances psychosocial recovery by strengthening motivation, self-confidence, and resilience. This process is reflected in key dimensions of social support—particularly reassurance of worth, guidance, and reliable alliance—through emotional bonding, shared experiences, and sustained mentoring relationships. Peer support also fosters a stigma-free and supportive environment that promotes long-term recovery. This study contributes to the limited literature on peer-based rehabilitation in local and Islamic socio-cultural contexts and highlights the importance of integrating peer support into community-based recovery programs.

TRANSFORMATION OF ISLAMIC RELIGIOUS COUNSELORS' DA'WAH IN THE POLICIES OF THE MINISTRY OF RELIGIOUS AFFAIRS IN INDONESIA
type: item
description: The development of Islamic preaching continues to change. The transformation of Islamic preaching by Islamic religious instructors is an important part of the Ministry of Religious Affairs' response to the socio-religious dynamics in Indonesia. This transformation positions Islamic preachers as social facilitators and agents of change who not only convey religious teachings but also mediate conflicts, strengthen tolerance, and empower communities. The transformation of Islamic preaching by Islamic preachers is a strategic step in improving the quality of religious guidance amidst social changes in society. This study focuses on the implementation of the Ministry of Religious Affairs' extension policy in Pondok Melati District, Bekasi City, an area with growing religious dynamics and social diversity. The research method used is descriptive qualitative, with data collection techniques through field observations, interviews with functional and non-functional religious instructors, and a review of extension program documents at the Office of Religious Affairs (KUA). The results show that the transformation of Islamic preaching in Pondok Melati is characterized by a shift in approach from lecture-based preaching to a model of mentoring and community empowerment. Extension preaching functions as a bridge between state policy and the real needs of the people, thus strengthening the role of religion as a transformative force in socio-religious development in Indonesia.

COMMUNITY EMPOWERMENT COUNSELING MODEL IN BENEFICIARY GRADUATION AS A SUSTAINABLE POVERTY ALLEVIATION STRATEGY IN BANYUMAS REGENCY
type: item
description: This research is motivated by the high dependence of beneficiaries on social assistance. Beneficiary Families (KPM) face mental, psychological, and social obstacles in achieving economic independence after graduation, so that financial-based empowerment programs are considered ineffective. This study aims to describe the community empowerment counseling model in the social assistance process for beneficiary graduates to transition to sustainable independence. The research uses a descriptive qualitative method with data collection techniques through active observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The research subjects consisted of five sub-district level social companions and fifty families of graduates from ten communities in southern Banyumas. Data were analyzed by reducing, classifying, and mapping findings by linking field results with empowerment theory and community counseling practices. The study results show that empowerment counseling plays an important role in increasing participants' confidence, self-efficacy, and motivation to be economically independent through community-based productive activities. However, challenges in the form of social stigma, lack of family support, and limited market access still hinder the empowerment process. In conclusion, empowerment counseling has been carried out using a psychosocial approach that strengthens the beneficiaries' mental readiness and socioeconomic capacity. Scientifically, this research contributes to developing an integrative model between social empowerment theory and community counseling practices in supporting the sustainability of social welfare postgraduate programs at the local level.

FEMINISM MOVEMENT AND THE CHALLENGES OF PATRIARCHY IN INDONESIAN MASS MEDIA
type: item
description: This study examines the dynamics of the feminist movement in confronting patriarchal challenges within Indonesia’s mass media. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews and observations involving five key informants active in both media and feminist advocacy. The findings indicate that feminist representation in mainstream media remains limited and often biased. Feminist narratives are frequently simplified or distorted, reinforcing stereotypes that align with patriarchal norms. Feminist activists continue to encounter significant barriers, including restricted access to mainstream platforms, editorial limitations, and digital harassment. Despite these obstacles, social media has become an important alternative space for advancing gender equality discourse and amplifying women’s voices. The study emphasizes the urgent need for critical communication strategies, the empowerment of alternative media, and the enhancement of digital literacy to challenge patriarchal dominance. Ultimately, this research underscores the ethical responsibility of the media to construct fair, inclusive, and consistent narratives that support feminist movements and promote gender justice in Indonesia.
