Character Education from the Perspective of the Qur’an and Hadith as a Foundation for Shaping a Complete Muslim Personality
This study aims to conceptually examine how the Qur’an and Hadith serve as the fundamental foundations for shaping human character, emphasizing the importance of integrating knowledge, faith, and righteous deeds in education. This research employs a library research method, based on the review of several articles, journals, and other scientific works related to the entered keywords through Google Scholar, as well as utilizing the POP (Publish or Perish) application to find studies relevant to this topic. The findings reveal that Islamic character education does not merely focus on shaping outward behavior but rather emphasizes the purification of the soul (tazkiyatun nafs) and the strengthening of internal moral values. Therefore, character education grounded in the Qur’an and Hadith holds high relevance in developing a generation of Muslims with noble character, competitiveness, and positive contributions to society and global civilization

The Purpose of Education from the Perspective of Hadith in Instilling Islamic Values Dynamically in Daily Life
One of the main issues in today’s educational landscape is the tendency of society to view education merely as a means to achieve worldly goals, such as obtaining a job, career advancement, or social status. This narrow perspective has obscured the true essence of education, which should serve as a means of character building, strengthening moral values, and the pursuit of enlightening knowledge. To address this issue, it is essential to restore the essence of education as a process of humanizing individuals, in line with the noble values taught by religion. This paper is a library research study employing textual analysis and an interpretative approach. The data analysis method used is content analysis. Based on the discussion of the goals of Islamic education, it can be concluded that, according to hadith, education aims to develop strong faith and piety, instill noble morals and positive character, guide learners toward happiness in both this world and the hereafter, optimize human potential holistically, and dynamically embed Islamic values into daily life.

The Impact of Human Psychological Conditions on the Application of Islamic Law in Determining the Validity of Worship
This study aims to analyze the influence of human psychological conditions on the application of Islamic law, focusing on aspects of taklīf, worship, transactions, testimony, and criminal rulings. The research employed a library study (library research) method by reviewing classical Islamic texts, scholarly books, and relevant journal articles. The findings reveal that psychological conditions play a significant role in determining the validity of worship, contracts, and legal judgments, as sound intellect is the primary requirement for legal responsibility (taklīf). Core principles of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah, such as hifẓ al-‘aql, la ḍarar, and justice, highlight that mental disorders may annul or reduce legal obligations. Furthermore, the mental health of a mujtahid is essential to ensuring the objectivity and validity of ijtihād. These findings affirm that Islamic law is humanistic and adaptive to psychological realities while also providing opportunities for integration between fiqh and psychology in addressing contemporary challenges.

The community service program conducted at Pondok Modern Darussalam Bogor aimed to enhance teachers’ abilities in developing 21st-century learning-based teaching materials through three structured stages: training, mentoring, and reinforcement. During the training phase, teachers were provided with both conceptual and technical understanding of teaching material development using interactive methods that encouraged active participation. The mentoring phase was carried out intensively over the course of one month and focused on content development, evaluation planning, and draft presentations. This phase was tailored to each teacher’s context and subject area. The mentoring sessions resulted in a notable improvement in the quality of the teaching materials, which became more structured, relevant, and aligned with character values and 21st-century competencies.

Fiqh Education in the Age of Digital Clicks and Social Conflict: Preserving Islam Nusantara Amidst Social Fragmentation
This research is motivated by the phenomenon of strengthening social polarisation and digital penetration that increasingly affects the way Muslims, especially the younger generation, understand and access Islamic sciences, including fiqh. Amid information disruption and social media algorithms, a shift is occurring in scientific authority, leading to the development of instant, exclusive, and even radical religious interpretations. This threatens the sustainability of the Nusantara fiqh tradition, which has long been known as moderate, contextual, and multicultural. The purpose of this study is to analyse how traditional fiqh education in Indonesia responds to the challenges of social fragmentation reinforced by digital technology, while identifying the role of fiqh education in maintaining the values of Islam Nusantara amidst the disruption. This type of research employs a qualitative, descriptive-analytical approach. This approach enables researchers to thoroughly examine the social, cultural, and digital dynamics surrounding fiqh education in the contemporary era. Data sources include classical and contemporary Islamic literature, curriculum documents. The results show that although some Islamic educational institutions still maintain strong fiqh authority and tradition, many of them have not been fully adaptive to digital learning patterns and have not been effective enough to counter exclusive religious narratives circulating widely on social media. Fiqh education that is responsive to multiculturalism and digital challenges is needed to maintain social cohesion, strengthen moderate understanding of Islam, and maintain the distinctive character of Islam Nusantara. The urgency of this research lies in the need to formulate a model of fiqh education that is contextual, inclusive, and adaptive to technological developments, so that it can become an ideological and cultural bulwark in maintaining the integrity of society amid the age of cliques and conflict

This research adopts a descriptive qualitative approach, employing observation, interviews, and documentation as data collection techniques. The research subjects consist of the Qur’an teacher, 4th-grade students, the head of the madrasah, and several students’ parents. Data analysis was conducted through systematic processes of data reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that the integration of the Quran Belajar Indonesia application contributes positively to the learning of Qur’anic reading. The application facilitates students in recognizing Arabic letters interactively, practicing tajwid through color-coded features, and engaging in independent practice. The teacher plays an active role in guiding the use of the application to ensure alignment with learning objectives. Most students demonstrated improved reading skills after using the application, although some still required assistance. Supporting factors for the implementation include the readiness of the teacher, the availability of devices, and the enthusiasm of students. However, challenges remain, such as limited digital infrastructure and low technological literacy. The conclusion of this study indicates that the use of Quran Belajar Indonesia can serve as an innovative and effective alternative in Qur’anic reading instruction at the elementary education level. The study recommends collaboration among teachers, parents, and educational institutions to optimize the integration of technology in religious learning.

The Effect of Colored Headscarf Punishment on Improving the Speaking Skills (Maharah Kalām) of Female Students at Pondok Pesantren Ihyā Ulumuddīn Nur Sufi’iyah Amuntai
The language program is a primary focus for enhancing the mahārah kalām (speaking skills) of female students (santriwati). Within this program, a color-coded headscarf system serves as an indicator of language violations. Each violation corresponds to a distinct type of headscarf punishment with varying colors. Although some types of headscarves have been discontinued, the punishment system remains active—particularly the “language security headscarf,” which has never ceased to be used. This indicates that linguistic discipline is a top priority for improving mahārah kalām at Pondok Pesantren Ihyā Ulumuddīn Nur Sufi’iyah. This study is a field research using a quantitative approach with a survey method. It aims to determine the effect of the colored headscarf punishment system on the improvement of mahārah kalām among santriwati. The population includes all high school-level female students, with a sample size of 38. Data collection techniques included observation, questionnaires, tests, and documentation. The data were analyzed using SPSS with tests for validity, reliability, normality, linearity, heteroscedasticity, and simple regression. The findings show that the colored headscarf punishment system influences the improvement of mahārah kalām, as evidenced by an r value of 0.406 and an R square value of 0.165. This suggests that 16.5% of the improvement is due to the punishment system, while 83.5% is influenced by other factors.
