THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ISLAMIC COSMOLOGY AND HUMAN ECOLOGICAL RESPONSIBILITY THEMATIC STUDY OF THE QUR'AN AND HADITH
Religion is often understood to be limited to ritual and social aspects, while natural and environmental issues are not yet considered an important part of religious teachings. This limited understanding is also influenced by reading verses of the Koran and hadith which tend to be textual, so that humans feel they have the freedom to utilize nature without considering their responsibilities. As a result, ecological awareness in religious life is still low, both in Islamic education and in religious activities in society. In fact, the Qur'an and hadith pay great attention to nature and place humans as the party responsible for maintaining its balance. This research aims to examine the relationship between Islamic cosmology and human ecological responsibility through a thematic study of verses from the Koran and hadith. This research uses a qualitative method based on literature study with a thematic interpretation approach. It is hoped that the research results will show that Islamic cosmology contains the principle of ecological responsibility, as well as confirming that protecting the environment is part of religious teachings. Dengan demikian, kajian ini diharapkan dapat memperkuat kesadaran ekologis berbasis nilai-nilai Islam dalam kehidupan masyarakat.

BREAKING BARRIERS IN EARLY READING AND RELIGIOUS MODERATION: A DESIGN-BASED STUDY OF A DIGITAL MEDIA-ENHANCED MULTISENSORY TRILINGUAL PHONICS MODEL IN AN INDONESIAN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
Early literacy development in multilingual contexts presents significant pedagogical challenges, particularly when elementary students must navigate multiple phonological systems simultaneously. Contemporary educational discourse increasingly emphasizes integrating character education and digital media into academic instruction. This study develops and evaluates a digital media-enhanced multisensory trilingual phonics instructional model that supports early reading development while fostering religious moderation values, including tolerance, respect, and appreciation for diversity. Employing a design-based research approach with the ADDIE framework, the research was conducted at Sinar Harapan National Trilingual Elementary School in Lumajang, East Java, which provides trilingual instruction in Indonesian, English, and Mandarin alongside character education emphasizing tolerance. Digital media integrated into the model included interactive phonics applications, augmented reality (AR) flashcards for tone visualization, gamified learning platforms (Quizizz and WordWall), digital audio recordings for pronunciation modeling, animated video tutorials, QR code-linked audio resources, and a simple learning management system for progress tracking. Data were collected through expert validation, classroom observations, teacher interviews, and pretest-posttest assessments measuring students' phonemic awareness across the three languages. Observational data examined how digital media-mediated literacy activities embedded religious moderation values within classroom interactions. Findings indicate the proposed digital media-integrated model significantly improved students' phonological awareness across all three languages while promoting attitudes associated with religious moderation. Expert validation yielded an overall score of 88.54% (highly feasible), and teacher feedback confirmed pedagogical relevance. Student phonemic awareness showed statistically significant gains: Indonesian (22.18%, Cohen's d=1.31), English (25.67%, d=1.44), and Mandarin (24.03%, d=1.21). Observational data documented increased student behaviors reflecting tolerance, cooperation, and respect for cultural diversity. The study contributes to literature on multilingual literacy and character education by proposing an instructional model that bridges cognitive, linguistic, socio-cultural, and digital media dimensions of early learning while reinforcing religious moderation principles in elementary education.
THE ANALYSIS OF INTRINSIC ELEMENTS IN THE SHORT STORY “FI LAILAH AL-‘IID” BY MUSTHOFA LUTHFI AL-MANFALUTHI (ROBERT STANTON’S STRUCTURALISM THEORY)
This study aims to analyse the short story “Fi Lailah al-Iid”, focusing on the key elements of Robert Stanton’s structuralism theory. This short story is significant for revealing its essential elements, as it contains complex narratives that become compelling when analysed using the structuralistm theory developed by Robert Stanton; amongst these is the story of the mother, characterised by her deep affection for her son. Because of her deep love for her son, she went so far as to steal a toy from a toy shop so that her son could feel happy on Eid night. This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach, in which the researcher serves as the primary instrument for describing and portraying the subject matter, characters, plot, setting and point of view found in Al-Manfaluti’s short story “Fi Lailah al-Iid”. The research design is descriptive, and the data collection technique used is literary analysis. The findings of the research on the analysis of the essential elements in this short story are the core elements that reveal the story’s truths in the short story “Fi Lailah al-Iid”, and include the two main elements: (1) The story’s truth, which comprises: the plot, the characters, the setting and the theme; (2) The narrative devices, which include: the title, point of view, style as well as tone, symbolism, and irony. All of these are interrelated, as is the case in Robert Stanton’s structuralism theory.
CHILD MARRIAGE PREVENTION EDUCATION AS AN EFFORT TO CREATE A QUALITY GENERATION AT MA ZAINUL HASAN 2, PROBOLINGGO REGENCY
Child marriage remains a significant social issue that affects adolescents’ education, health, and future opportunities. Early marriage often results in school dropout, limited economic prospects, and increased risks to reproductive health. Therefore, preventive efforts through educational programs are essential to increase adolescents’ awareness of the consequences of child marriage and the importance of continuing education. This study aims to examine the implementation of Child Marriage Prevention Education as an effort to create a quality generation among students at MA Zainul Hasan 2, Probolinggo Regency. The activity used an educational intervention approach involving lectures, discussions, and interactive question-and-answer sessions with students as participants. Data were collected through observation, participant responses, and documentation of the activities, and were analyzed using a descriptive qualitative method. The results show that the educational program successfully increased students’ knowledge and awareness regarding the negative impacts of early marriage, including health risks, educational discontinuity, and social challenges. Students also demonstrated a better understanding of the importance of delaying marriage and prioritizing education for their future development. These findings indicate that educational institutions play a strategic role in preventing child marriage by providing adolescents with knowledge and life skills related to reproductive health, personal responsibility, and future planning. Therefore, continuous educational programs and collaboration between schools, communities, and related institutions are necessary to support the development of a healthy, educated, and responsible generation
MODERATION NARRATIVE RELIGIOUS IN HADITH: FROM TEXT TO TRANSFORMATION PRACTICE INCLUSIVE SOCIAL
A moderate religious perspective is a crucial framework for responding to the dynamics of life in an increasingly pluralistic and complex society. Within Islamic tradition, the values of moderation are not only rooted in the Qur’an but are also reflected in various hadiths of the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, which emphasize the principles of balance (wasathiyah), tolerance, and respect for differences. Nevertheless, several major studies on hadiths related to religious moderation still tend to focus on textual analysis, so attention to their relevance and implementation in social practice has not been extensively developed. Given this context, this article aims to examine narratives of religious moderation in the hadiths and analyze them. How can the values contained therein be realized in inclusive social practices? This study employs a qualitative approach using library-based research methods, involving a search for relevant classical and contemporary hadith literature, as well as thematic analysis to identify hadiths containing elements of justice, tolerance, balance, and respect for diversity in social life. The results show that hadith not only contain teachings of moderation as a normative religious guideline but also offer an ethical framework for the formation of inclusive, dialogical, and harmonious social relationships. Thus, a contextual interpretation of hadith can strengthen the role of Islamic teachings in fostering a moderate religious culture within a multicultural society.
INTERNALIZING RELIGIOUS MODERATION VALUES THROUGH COMMUNITY SERVICE LEARNING BASED ENGLISH LANGUAGE TEACHING AMONG UNIVERSITY STUDENTS
This study aims to examine the internalization of religious moderation values through Community Service Learning (CSL)–based English Language Teaching among university students. In the context of increasing religious diversity and the challenges of intolerance in contemporary society, higher education institutions are required to play a strategic role in fostering moderate and inclusive attitudes through innovative learning approaches.This research employs a qualitative descriptive design to gain an in-depth understanding of the phenomenon. The participants were undergraduate students of the English Language Teaching program at Universitas Islam Zainul Hasan Genggong, Indonesia, who were actively involved in community service activities. Data were collected through classroom observations, documentation, and semi-structured interviews. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis to identify patterns and meanings related to the internalization process of religious moderation values.The findings indicate that the implementation of CSL-based English Language Teaching effectively facilitates the internalization of religious moderation values, including tolerance, inclusivity, mutual respect, and social responsibility. In addition to improving students’ English communication skills, this approach also promotes positive attitudinal changes toward diversity and strengthens their awareness of harmonious social interaction. The integration of experiential learning and community engagement creates meaningful learning experiences that bridge cognitive, affective, and social dimensions. This study contributes to the development of an interdisciplinary pedagogical model that integrates language learning with value education, particularly in promoting religious moderation in higher education contexts. It is expected that the findings can serve as a reference for educators and policymakers in designing transformative learning models that support peaceful coexistence in multicultural societies.
RECONSTRUCTING EDUCATIONAL VALUES IN THE QUR’ANIC STORY OF PROPHET ADAM: A THEMATIC EXEGESIS FOR CONTEMPORARY ISLAMIC EDUCATION
This study aims to reconstruct the educational values embedded in the Qur’anic story of Prophet Adam through a thematic exegesis approach and to examine their relevance to contemporary Islamic education. Using qualitative library research with tafsir maudhu’i as the primary analytical framework, the study analyzes key Qur’anic passages related to Adam’s narrative, particularly in Surah Al-Baqarah, Al-A‘raf, and Taha. The findings reveal five principal educational values: knowledge as the basis of human dignity, moral responsibility, reflective learning through repentance, leadership through the concept of khalifah, and dialogical pedagogy. These findings are then contextualized within contemporary educational theories, including constructivism, character education, transformative learning, and student-centered pedagogy. The study concludes that the Adamic narrative provides a holistic pedagogical paradigm integrating intellectual, moral, spiritual, and social dimensions. The novelty of this article lies in repositioning the story of Prophet Adam from a theological narrative into a foundational educational framework for contemporary Islamic education.
HARMONIZATION OF ISLAMIC LAW AND CUSTOMARY LAW BASED ON LOCAL WISDOM: MEDIATION INNOVATION IN RESOLUTION OF GONO GINI PROPERTY DISPUTES IN INDONESIA
This article aims to analyze the harmonization of Islamic law and customary law based on local wisdom as an innovative foundation for mediation in resolving disputes over marital joint property in Indonesia, with a case study at the Kraksaan Religious Court. The issues examined include the forms of mediation, the implementation procedures, and the legal standing of the deed of settlement in the distribution of joint property following divorce. This research is field research employing a qualitative approach and a case study method. Data were collected through interviews, observation, and documentation studies of case files and relevant statutory regulations. The findings reveal that mediation functions not merely as a procedural dispute resolution mechanism, but also as an integrative forum accommodating the values of justice, deliberation, balance, and expediency. From the perspective of Islamic law, mediation is consistent with the principles of ishlah (reconciliation), justice, and the prohibition against unlawful appropriation of property. From the perspective of customary law, mediation reflects familial values and recognition of marital joint property as the product of shared efforts that must be distributed fairly and proportionally. Settlement agreements embodied in a deed of settlement and reinforced by a court decision provide legal certainty, binding force, and legal protection for the parties. This study confirms that the harmonization of Islamic law and customary law based on local wisdom can strengthen the effectiveness of mediation in resolving marital property disputes in Indonesia.
MODERATE ISLAM, INCLUSIVE FINANCE: A QUALITATIVE MULTI-SITE CASE STUDY OF ISLAMIC MICROFINANCE INSTITUTIONS IN EAST JAVA, INDONESIA
Faith-based financial institutions occupy a critical yet analytically underexplored role as agents of inclusive development, particularly within Muslim-majority societies navigating the dual pressures of religious polarization and socioeconomic marginalization. This study examines how moderate Islamic values as institutionalized within Nahdlatul Ulama-affiliated pesantren networks and cooperative traditions in East Java, Indonesia shape the organizational culture, lending practices, and social outreach of Islamic microfinance institutions (IMFIs). Adopting a qualitative, constructivist, multi-site case study design, the research draws on semi-structured in-depth interviews with 38 participants comprising institutional directors, field credit officers, and loan beneficiaries, supplemented by non-participant observation and documentary analysis conducted between January and July 2024. Three purposively selected IMFIs operating in Surabaya, Jember, and Malang served as the empirical sites, collectively representing the geographic, demographic, and institutional diversity of East Java’s Islamic microfinance landscape. The findings demonstrate that core moderate Islamic principles wasatiyyah (balance), tasamuh (tolerance), tawazun (equilibrium), and ukhuwwah (solidarity) are not merely rhetorical commitments but operationally embedded norms that concretely guide client selection, risk management, gender-responsive product design, and interfaith community engagement. Crucially, the study identifies a reciprocal dynamic whereby sustained inclusive financial practice actively reinforces and deepens moderate religious identities among both staff and beneficiaries, thereby contributing to broader social cohesion. These findings advance scholarship on the religion–economics nexus and carry significant implications for policy design, institutional development, and the interdisciplinary study of faith, finance, and equitable development.
LOW SMOKE INCINERATOR INNOVATION TO REDUCE SUSTAINABLE WASTE ACCUMULATION IN MATEKAN VILLAGE, POROLINGGO
Waste accumulation remains a significant environmental challenge, particularly in rural areas with limited waste management infrastructure. In many villages, household waste is commonly managed through open burning or disposal in vacant land, practices that contribute to air pollution, health risks, and environmental degradation. Desa Matekan, Besuk, Probolinggo, faces similar conditions due to the absence of adequate final disposal facilities and structured waste management systems. This study aims to describe the design and implementation of a low-smoke incinerator as an appropriate technology innovation to reduce sustainable waste accumulation in the village. The research employed a participatory descriptive approach, involving observation, interviews, documentation, and direct community engagement during the design, construction, and operational testing phases. The incinerator was designed using a closed combustion system with primary and secondary air circulation to improve combustion efficiency and minimize smoke emissions. The results indicate a significant reduction in waste volume after each combustion cycle, lower visible smoke intensity compared to open burning, and improved community participation in waste management practices. The innovation not only enhanced technical waste processing efficiency but also strengthened local awareness and collective responsibility toward environmental sustainability. It can be concluded that the low-smoke incinerator is an effective and adaptable solution for community-based sustainable waste reduction in rural areas.
CULTIVATING AN ANTI-BULLYING GENERATION BASED ON THE VALUES OF TASAMUH
This research aims to build an anti-bullying generation by internalizing the values​​of tasamuh (tolerance) among students at Sidorejo Elementary School and the Al-Hikmah TPQ (Islamic Boarding School) in Sidorejo Village. The program employed a qualitative, participatory approach within the Community Service Program (PKM) framework, emphasizing the active involvement of students, teachers, and community leaders in program planning, implementation, and evaluation. Data collection techniques included participant observation, reflective discussions, simple interviews, and documentation, which were analyzed using descriptive qualitative methods. The implementation phase included initial observations, educational outreach on the concept and impacts of bullying, dialogic discussions, storytelling based on the Prophet's Sirah (the Prophet's teachings), role-playing simulations, character-based educational games, and a declaration of commitment to anti-bullying. The results of the program demonstrated an increase in participants' cognitive understanding of the forms and impacts of bullying, a strengthening of affective awareness in the form of empathy and respect for differences, and an improvement in positive communication skills in the psychomotor domain. The integration of tasamuh values​​through a contextual and participatory approach has proven effective in meaningfully building a tolerant character. Therefore, this values- and community-based approach has the potential to become a strategic and sustainable model for bullying prevention in rural educational settings.
REOG AS EDUCULTURAL PRACTICE IN PESANTREN: INTEGRATING LOCAL WISDOM AND ISLAMIC SPIRITUALITY AT WALI SONGO NGABAR ISLAMIC BOARDING SCHOOL, PONOROGO
This research aims to examine the harmony between local wisdom and Islamic spirit through educulture practices at Wali Songo Islamic Boarding School in Ngabar, with Reog as the main focus. Pesantren are regarded not merely as institutions of Islamic learning, but also as cultural arenas that play a strategic role in preserving and transmitting local values. This research employed a qualitative approach with a case study design, through observation, interviews, and documentation, and was analyzed using the model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldana. The results show that Reog is not merely preserved as a performing art but has been adapted as a medium for character education, discipline, and togetherness among students. Elements of polytheism and mysticism have been removed and replaced with Islamic poetry, prayers, and narratives emphasizing moral and spiritual values. The integration of Reog is evident in annual carnival,spectacular show, and extracurricular activity. Although Reog has frequently been discussed as a form of Javanese cultural heritage, studies that explore its reinterpretation within the educational and spiritual environment of pesantren remain limited. This research addresses that gap by examining how Reog is transformed into an educultural medium that harmonizes local tradition with Islamic ethical values in the daily life of the pesantren. The novelty of this study lies in revealing how pesantren actively reconstruct local cultural expressions into a pedagogical space that nurtures both cultural identity and spiritual character among students.
RELIGIOUS MODERATION VALUES IN SOCIETY: STRENGTHENING SOCIAL COHESION IN PLURAL COMMUNITIES IN INDONESIA
Plural societies need religious attitudes that protect conviction while preventing exclusion and violence. This article examines the values of religious moderation in society and explains their contribution to social cohesion in plural communities. The study uses a qualitative library research design based on books, policy documents, and scholarly journal articles on wasatiyyah, interreligious dialogue, local wisdom, digital communication, and religious moderation published between 2019 and 2025. The analysis shows that religious moderation is not a reduction of faith, but a balanced way of living religious commitment in public life. Its main social values include justice, tolerance, anti-violence, dialogue, national commitment, and accommodation to local culture. In social practice, these values are expressed through respectful interfaith relations, collaborative community service, inclusive public communication, peaceful conflict resolution, and the rejection of hate speech both offline and online. The study also finds that family socialization, religious institutions, schools, interfaith forums, and local traditions play a crucial role in internalizing moderation. However, identity politics, symbolic tolerance, digital radicalization, and weak interfaith literacy remain major challenges. Therefore, strengthening religious moderation requires an integrated strategy involving value-based education, community collaboration, culture-sensitive policy, and digital literacy. The article concludes that religious moderation should be understood as a public ethic for plural societies because it strengthens trust, social resilience, and harmonious coexistence without erasing theological differences.
ECO ROCKET STOVE : ECO-FRIENDLY STOVE INNOVATION AS AN EFFICIENT WASTE MANAGEMENT SOLUTION WITH MINIMAL COMMUNITY-BASED POLLUTION
The problem of waste management remains a challenge in rural areas, including in Desa Bago. Limited waste management facilities cause residents to rely on open burning practices, which have the potential to create environmental pollution and health problems. This Community Service Program (KKN) aimed to provide an alternative solution through the implementation of the Eco Rocket Stove as an environmentally friendly, efficient, and low-emission stove innovation based on community participation. The method used in this activity was a participatory approach involving the community actively through the stages of observation, socialization, stove-making training, implementation, as well as mentoring and evaluation. The results showed an increase in community understanding and awareness of the importance of environmentally friendly waste management. In addition, the use of the Eco Rocket Stove was able to produce more efficient combustion with lower smoke emissions compared to open burning. This activity not only provided a technical solution for waste management but also contributed to community empowerment and encouraged behavioral changes toward sustainable environmental management in Desa Bago. Thus, this program demonstrates that the application of appropriate technology based on community participation can be an effective strategy to address rural waste problems while improving health and environmental quality sustainably. This activity is also recommended to be replicated in other villages with adjustments to local conditions and support from relevant stakeholders.
BUILDING A WASTE-AWARE COMMUNITY THROUGH EDUCATIONAL SIGNS
The proliferation of products sold in single-use packaging has contributed to the increase in waste volume in Sidorejo, Kotaanyar District, Probolinggo Village Regency. Many residents are unaware that waste such as plastic, beverage bottles, sachets, cans, and glass can take decades to hundreds of years to decompose. Through the Community Service Program, students from Zainul Hasan Genggong Islamic University (UGI) created educational signs explaining the types of packaging waste and their biodegradation times. The signs were installed at strategic locations for easy reading and understanding by residents. Using simple language and clear information, this activity aims to raise awareness that even small amounts of waste, if disposed of carelessly, can have long-term environmental impacts. This program received a positive response and marked the first step in building a shared commitment to the cleanliness and environmental sustainability of Sidorejo, Kotaanyar District, Probolinggo Village Regency.

This Branding is projected to increase tourist visits and directly have an impact on improving the local economy through employment and the development of MSMEs based on local wisdom.
REFRAMING SUSTAINABLE CONSUMPTION AND PRODUCTION: A SOCIO-ECONOMIC PERSPECTIVE WITHIN RELIGIOUS MODERATION FRAMEWORK IN INDONESIA
The global ecological crisis manifested in climate change, environmental degradation, and the overexploitation of natural resources is closely linked to the modern development paradigm centered on unlimited economic growth. In Indonesia, this condition is evidenced by increasing waste generation, environmental pollution, and deforestation. Although the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have been widely adopted, their implementation remains limited in driving a fundamental transformation toward sustainable consumption and production. This study aims to examine how the modern development paradigm shapes unsustainable consumption and production patterns, analyze the limitations of the SDGs, and develop a socio-economic framework grounded in religious moderation. Employing a qualitative approach, this study is based on a comprehensive literature review of academic sources and policy documents. The findings reveal that the paradigm of unlimited growth structurally promotes excessive consumption, while the SDGs tend to emphasize efficiency without addressing deeper systemic change. As an alternative, religious moderation articulated through the principles of tawassuth, tawazun, i’tidal, and tasamuh offers a potential ethical foundation for fostering sustainable consumption and production systems. This study proposes a reframing framework consisting of three key pillars: the redefinition of well-being, ethical and balanced production, and value-based sustainable consumption.
MOSQUE-BASED EMPOWERMENT THROUGH REVITALIZING ISLAMIC ECOTHEOLOGICAL VALUES IN THE DIGITAL AGE
Mosques have a strategic role not only as places of ritual worship, but also as centers of community empowerment that are able to respond to social and environmental problems. In the digital era, environmental degradation and shifts in values ​​due to technological developments require mosques to transform adaptively through the revitalization of Islamic eco-theological values. This research aims to analyze mosque-based empowerment strategies in revitalizing Islamic eco-theological values ​​and examine the use of digital media to support this process. This research uses a qualitative descriptive approach with primary data sources in the form of observations and interviews with mosque administrators, digital content managers, community leaders and congregation members, as well as secondary data in the form of activity documents and mosque social media archives. The research object is located at the Sunan Kalijaga Mosque, Kalikajar Kulon Village, Paiton District, Probolinggo Regency. The results of this study conceptually show that mosques have great potential as agents of ecological change if empowerment strategies, Islamic eco-theological values, and the use of digital technology are combined synergistically. This research suspects that strengthening digital-based ecological da'wah is able to increase public awareness of environmental conservation as part of the practice of Islamic teachings at the village level.
NETNOGRAPHY METHOD TRAINING FOR STRENGTHENING DIGITAL LITERACY AND RESEARCH COMPETENCE IN SOCIAL MEDIA AMONG ARABIC LANGUAGE EDUCATION STUDENTS
The rapid development of digital technology has transformed research practices, particularly in the use of social media as a data source and research object. In the context of Arabic Language Education, students are required not only to possess linguistic competence but also to develop digital literacy and research skills that are relevant to contemporary advancements. However, in practice, many students still face limitations in critically and methodologically utilizing social media for research purposes. Therefore, a systematic effort is needed to enhance both digital literacy and research competence through adaptive approaches, one of which is the netnography method. This community service program aims to improve students' digital literacy and social media research competence in Arabic Language Education through training in netnography methods. The implementation employs a participatory approach consisting of training sessions, guided practice, and evaluation. The results indicate a significant improvement in students' understanding of digital literacy concepts and netnography methods, as well as their skills in conducting systematic and critical social media-based research. Students are also able to produce simple netnography-based research designs relevant to Arabic Language Education. Therefore, this program contributes to enhancing students' academic capacity in adapting to digital developments and encourages the production of innovative research based on social media.
