Environmental Education From the Qur'anic Perspective: Ecological Analysis of Surah Ar-Rūm 41 on the Flood and Landslide Crisis in Sumatra

Fri, 23 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0700

This study aims to analyze the relevance, ecological messages, and environmental education concepts to prevent floods and landslides in Sumatra in QS Ar-Rūm verse 41. Using a qualitative approach based on literature study, this study examines classical and contemporary interpretations, disaster reports, and scientific literature related to environmental damage. The results of the study indicate that the concept of facade described in the verse is in line with the current ecological crisis triggered by deforestation, land conversion, watershed damage, and irresponsible human behavior. These factors exacerbate disaster risks and make them anthropogenic disasters. The study concludes that Qur'anic ecotheology through the principles of monotheism, caliphate, mizan, and Amanah is an important foundation for environmental education and the formation of ethical-spiritual awareness to prevent ecological damage.

Abstract

This study discusses the practice of religious moderation carried out by students of Islamic boarding schools in Lasem District, then explores how the application of applied Islamic values in the practice of religious moderation is carried out, as well as the factors that support and hinder the application of applied Islamic values in the practice of religious moderation. The researcher uses a descriptive qualitative research type, with the research setting in the Lasem District Islamic boarding schools, the research subjects being the students, clerics, and Chinese community leaders, and the research object being the religious moderation practices of the students and applied Islamic values. Data collection methods include interviews, observations, and documentation. Data analysis uses data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of this study are the students' religious moderation practices and the analysis of applied Islamic values are: (a) National commitment in the form of flag ceremony practice on August 17 in accordance with the values of hubbul wathan (love of homeland), ruhul wathaniyyah (patriotic spirit), ukhuwah (unity). (b) Tolerance in the form of breaking the fast together activities that reflect Islamic values of silaturrahmi (friendship), tasamuh (tolerance), hishshotussa’adah (sharing happiness), ruhul amal al-jamaiy (spirit of togetherness), quwwatul insijam (strength of harmony). (c) Anti-violence in the form of greeting activities in line with the values of al-mahabbah (love), as-salam wal amnu (peace and security). (d) Acceptability of local culture in the form of ro’an and pesantren haul practices. Ro’an embodies the values of ta’awun (cooperation), an-nadhafah (cleanliness), and the pesantren haul aligns with the values of ta’awun (cooperation) and al-mas’uliyah al-musytarikah (shared responsibility). The supporting factor of santri religious moderation practices is that pesantrens in Lasem are more inclusive and there are specific times when santri can interact with the community. Meanwhile, the inhibiting factors are the widespread reporting on social media about radicalism, santri who do not accept community traditions, and the diversity of santri understanding.

Love and Compassion in Learning: A Qur'an and Hadith Perspective in the Context of Inclusive Education

Rita Sriayu, Mahyuddin Barni, Abd. Majid, Iskandar — Fri, 30 Jan 2026 23:31:56 +0700

This research aims to analyze the concepts of vinta (mahabbah) and compassion (rahmah) from the perspective of the Quran and hadith, and their relevance to inclusive education practices in Islam. This study is based on the understanding that love and compassion are the essence of Islamic teachings, which are not only normatively taught in religious texts but also have significant implications for a learning process that is friendly, just, and respectful of diversity. The research method used is literature review, examining literature related to the Quran, Hadith, Islamic education, and inclusive education. The study results show that the Quran and Hadith clearly emphasize the importance of rahmah and mahabbah as the foundation for social and educational relationships. These values then became the basic principles of inclusive education in Islam, as they encourage an attitude of valuing differences, empathy, and providing equal learning opportunities for all students. In addition, the application of love and affection in inclusive learning can be realized thru teacher modeling, a humanistic approach, teaching strategies responsive to individual needs, and the creation of a safe and supportive school culture. Thus, this research confirms that integrating the values of love and compassion is an important foundation for realizing holistic, humanistic, and inclusive education that aligns with the principles of Islamic education.

Optimization of Bio-Char Production from Palm Kernel Shells as Metallurgical Coke Using Response Surface Methodology

Hariyadi Asful, Purwanto Moch, Mubarok Fikan R, Vantoni Rama — Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 +0700

This research focuses on optimizing biochar production from palm kernel shells (PKS) as an environmentally friendly alternative to metallurgical coke. PKS was chosen due to its abundance, high lignocellulose content, and competitive heating value. The conversion process was carried out via pyrolysis at temperatures of 400–700°C with varying residence times. To ensure the biochar produced meets metallurgical coke specifications, this research uses a Response Surface Methodology (RSM) approach with a Central Composite Design (CCD) model to optimize temperature and time parameters. The initial stage involved pre-treatment using water leaching, successfully reducing ash content from 5.68% to 1.25%. Optimization results show that at a temperature of 600–700°C with a residence time of 2–3 hours, the resulting biochar exhibits characteristics that comply with metallurgical coke standards, such as high fixed carbon content (>85%), low ash content (<6%), and a calorific value of 7200 kcal/kg. Moreover, increasing pyrolysis temperature and time also reduces volatile matter and moisture content, resulting in more stable and efficient biochar. This research provides a real solution for utilizing PKS waste as an alternative raw material for the steel industry, reducing dependence on imported coal-based coke. The results of the RSM optimization indicate an optimal temperature of 612°C and a residence time of 3 hours.

Abstract

Accountability in state financial management is a key indicator of good governance, including within the Indonesian Army, which is required to maintain an unqualified audit opinion (Wajar Tanpa Pengecualian—WTP) in a sustainable manner. This study aims to analyze the strategic role of Unit Finance Officers (Perwira Keuangan Satker) in preparing financial statements to ensure reporting quality and the continuity of the WTP opinion within the Indonesian Army. The theoretical framework draws upon the Resource-Based View to examine the internal capabilities of Finance Officers as strategic resources, Agency Theory to explain the agency relationships in financial management, and Public Accountability Theory as the foundation of transparent governance. This research employed a qualitative approach using a case study method involving in-depth interviews with three key informants, document review, and observation. Data were analyzed through open and axial coding using NVivo software, synthesized with SWOT analysis. The findings reveal three core roles of the Finance Officers: technical, strategic, and managerial, each contributing to the quality of financial reporting. Supporting factors include a hierarchical organizational structure, the SAKTI financial information system, and strong leadership commitment, while constraints involve personnel rotation, competence gaps, and role conflicts between command and compliance. The study concludes that strengthening competence, standardizing procedures, and transforming Finance Officers into strategic financial advisors are key to reinforcing financial accountability and sustaining unqualified audit opinions in the Indonesian Army.

Tujuan penelitian adalah menganalisis efektivitas berbagai strategi pembelajaran dan solusi yang digunakan guru serta kontribusi lingkungan sekolah dan keluarga dalam membangun budaya literasi Qurani. Metode penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif fenomenologis dengan teknik observasi, wawancara mendalam, dan dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa minat baca siswa cenderung tumbuh seiring rutinitas, motivasi, keteladanan guru, dan dukungan keluarga serta budaya madrasah. Strategi pembiasaan, penghargaan, pendekatan kontekstual, kegiatan keagamaan, dan kolaborasi dengan orang tua menjadi faktor dominan. Namun, masih ditemukan kendala pada motivasi intrinsik siswa serta pengaruh media sosial yang memerlukan solusi berkelanjutan. Penelitian ini menegaskan pentingnya sinergi guru, madrasah, dan keluarga dalam menciptakan generasi Qurani yang adaptif di era modern.

Abstract

This study examines the strategies of Qur’an Hadith teachers in increasing the interest in reading the Qur’an among eighth-grade students at Madrasah Aliyah Negeri 1 Sarolangun. The research is motivated by the low interest in independent Qur’an reading among madrasah adolescents, despite the institution’s implementation of various religious programs. The aim is to analyze the effectiveness of instructional strategies and solutions applied by teachers, as well as the role of school and family environment in building a culture of Qur’anic literacy. A qualitative phenomenological approach with observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation was employed. Results show that students’ reading interest tends to develop through routines, motivation, teacher role modeling, and support from both family and the madrasah culture. Main factors include habitual practice, recognition, contextual learning, religious activities, and collaboration with parents. Barriers remain regarding students’ intrinsic motivation and the influence of social media, highlighting the need for sustainable solutions. The research emphasizes the importance of synergy among teachers, madrasah, and families to foster a Qur’anic generation that is adaptive in the modern era.

Abstract

This study stems from the rise of online gambling promotion through social media and digital platforms as a means of disseminating gambling-related content. Such activities violate national law and contradict Islamic principles that prohibit gambling (maisir) due to its moral and social harm. The research aims to analyze the Indonesian positive law concerning the criminal act of online gambling promotion, identify Islamic criminal law perspectives on the issue, and assess the law enforcement efforts within the Jambi Regional Police. A qualitative approach was employed, combining field research and literature study. Data were collected through observation, interviews with the Cyber Crime Unit of the Jambi Regional Police, and documentation, then analyzed descriptively and comparatively between positive law norms and Islamic criminal principles. The findings reveal that Indonesian law, through Article 303 of the Penal Code and the Electronic Information and Transactions Law, strictly prohibits all forms of gambling promotion. Enforcement is carried out through inter-agency cooperation, though constrained by limited regulations, digital tracking capacity, and extraterritorial challenges. In Islamic criminal law, gambling promotion is classified as a ta‘zir offense, deemed unlawful, and punishable to prevent social harm.
