The Influence of Emotional Intelligence and Spiritual Intelligence on Students’ Social Adaptation

Muhammad Zaki Ridho Djakfar — 2025-12-30

This study aims to analyze the influence of emotional intelligence and spiritual intelligence on the social adaptation of master's degree students in the Islamic Religious Education program. The main issue addressed is the lack of students’ ability to adapt socially in the university environment. To address this, a quantitative approach with a survey method was employed, using multiple linear regression analysis. The sample consisted of 48 students selected through stratified random sampling. Data were collected using a closed-ended questionnaire on a Likert scale. Validity and reliability tests confirmed that the instrument was both valid and reliable. Data analysis included normality, linearity, t-test, F-test, and determination coefficient (R²). The results showed that both emotional and spiritual intelligence significantly influence social adaptation, both partially and simultaneously. The R² value of 0.663 indicates that the independent variables explain 66.3% of the variation in social adaptation. The study concludes that strengthening emotional and spiritual competencies is a key strategy to improve students' social adaptation. It recommends the integration of emotional and spiritual intelligence development into student development programs in Islamic higher education institutions.

The Role of the Abbasid Dynasty in Building Scientific Infrastructure: A Study of Classical Islamic Educational Institutions

Ngatmin Abbas — 2025-12-30

The Abbasid Dynasty period is recognized as the golden age of Islamic civilization, during which knowledge flourished rapidly. This research aims to historically examine the role of the Abbasid Dynasty in building scientific infrastructure through the establishment and development of classical Islamic educational institutions. This study employs a qualitative methodology with a historical approach and document analysis. Data were obtained through a literature review of primary and secondary sources relevant to intellectual dynamics and educational institutions during the Abbasid period. The findings indicate that the Abbasid Dynasty, through the support of caliphs such as Harun al-Rashid and Al-Ma'mun, not only established institutions like Bayt al-Hikma (House of Wisdom) and madrasas, but also created supporting systems including patronage, budgeting, and expanded access to knowledge. It was also discovered that this period became a milestone for integration between religious and rational sciences, giving birth to an open and tolerant academic culture. The implications of this research demonstrate that many contemporary Islamic educational structures, such as university systems and integrated curricula, are rooted in the Abbasid educational model. This research provides an important contribution to the development of Islamic Religious Education studies, particularly in building holistic and historical educational models.

The Urgency of Tazkiyatu an-niyah in Learning Activities: A Qualitative Study of Az-Zarnuji's Thoughts in Ta‘lim al-Muta‘allim

Risris Hari Nugraha — 2025-12-31

This research analyzes the concept of intention (niyyah), the urgency of its purification, and the relevance of Az-Zarnuji's thoughts in the book Ta‘lim al-Muta‘allim to modern Islamic education. Using a qualitative approach and library research, the study focuses on content analysis of the primary text of Ta‘lim al-Muta‘allim. Data were analyzed using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman.The results show that intention (an-niyyah) is the main spiritual and moral foundation that determines the blessing (barakah) and devotional value of seeking knowledge. Az-Zarnuji emphasizes the purification of intention (tazkiyat an-niyyah) so that the learning objective is free from worldly ambitions and directed as a means of devotion to God (Allah). A sound intention leads to beneficial knowledge (‘ilm nāfi‘) and shapes the scholar's character to be humble (tawāḍu‘) and ethical.This thought has high relevance in the context of modern education. The concept of Tazkiyat an-Niyyah can serve as the spiritual foundation that strengthens the implementation of Deep Learning, ensuring the learning process is both Meaningful and Mindful, thereby enabling the educational system to reorient itself towards the formation of a character defined by integrity and civility.

Integration of Fiqh al-Biʿah into Fiqh al-Watan: An Analysis of Maqasid, Cosmology, and Tadbir Urus al-‘Alam in the State of Pahang

Azman Yusof — 2026-01-22

This article discusses the theory and application of Fiqh al-Bīʿah Watan (Local Islamic Environmental Jurisprudence) as a framework for Islamic environmental governance in the State of Pahang. The approach emphasizes that environmental stewardship is not merely a human duty but an act of worship grounded in tawḥīd, maqāṣid, and adab. Using historical and content analysis, the study examines key policy documents and academic sources such as Garis Panduan Syariah Alam Sekitar (JAKIM, 2023) and Ceramah Aspirasi Pahang 1st (2025). Findings reveal that Fiqh al-Bīʿah Watan functions as a local Islamic epistemology integrating Malaysia customs, science, and Shariah principles within a holistic maqāṣid-based sustainability framework. Pahang thus emerges as a model of Islamic ecological governance aligning development with raḥmah, mīzān, and barakah.

The Reason for Freedom in Religious Authority (A Study of Mustafa Akyol’s Perspective in Contemporary Islam)

Rifqah Najwa Azizah — 2026-01-31

This study examines the issue of religious authorities intervening through fatwas, which often have implications for restricting individual freedom. This problem arises because fatwas, which are intended to be moral guidelines and non-binding laws, are frequently used in practice as tools and instruments of social control, thereby limiting individual autonomy. This research aims to explore the concept of freedom in the context of religious authority by examining the idea of freedom in Islam. Methodically, this study employs a qualitative research method in library research. Meanwhile, data analysis was carried out in a descriptive-analytical mannerThe results of this study emphasize the importance of freedom as a human right, and there should be no intervention from other parties, including fatwas issued by religious authorities. The intervention of the authorities is limited to protection from crime and hypocrisy, including the issuance of fatwas; it is necessary to consider the right to liberty and justice of every individual. The conclusion of this study reveals that opening the reason of freedom means placing human beings as an end, not as an object or tool of other parties' interests. This study contributes to the fields of theology and philosophy, particularly in liberal Islamic thought, which emphasizes individual freedom as ande critical study of freedom in the context of religious authority.
