2025-06-26T09:30:56+07:00

The evaluation process within Islamic education holds a crucial role, functioning not only as a tool to measure students’ academic achievements but also as an instrument to assess their moral, spiritual, and behavioral competencies. As Islamic education aims to develop comprehensive individuals characterized by faith, knowledge, and noble character, evaluation should align with these multidimensional goals. This study aims to elaborate the concepts, guiding principles, evaluation methods, and implementation strategies of educational evaluation in Islamic education, particularly in the context of contemporary challenges. Employing a descriptive qualitative research method through extensive literature review from national and international academic sources within the last five years, this article identifies various techniques applied in Islamic educational settings, ranging from traditional oral and written tests to modern digital-based assessments. The findings highlight that evaluation in Islamic education should be based on Islamic values derived from the Qur'an and Hadith, while also embracing technological innovations. Moreover, the study underscores the importance of implementing a holistic and integrative evaluation system that measures cognitive abilities, moral character, spiritual development, and social skills. This study emphasizes the importance of implementing a holistic evaluation system that includes assessments of students’ cognitive abilities, moral character, spirituality, and social skills. This necessity arises from the fact that evaluation systems commonly applied in many Islamic educational institutions still predominantly focus on cognitive achievements, while moral and spiritual aspects are often overlooked. In reality, the challenges of contemporary Islamic education, especially in the digital era, are not limited to academic mastery but are closely related to moral degradation, value disorientation, and the negative influence of instant digital culture on student behavior. Therefore, this article proposes an integrative evaluation model based on Islamic values, which is not only relevant to be applied in the digital era but also essential as a strategic solution for establishing a comprehensive, fair, and technology-adaptive evaluation system for Islamic education that remains grounded in Sharia principles. This model is expected to serve as a reference for Islamic educational institutions in designing a more holistic, balanced, and contextually appropriate evaluation framework in line with the needs of contemporary Islamic education.

HAKIKAT, SUMBER, DAN KLASIFIKASI PENGETAHUAN DALAM PERSPEKTIF FILSAFAT DAN ISLAM

This study aims to examine the nature, sources, and classification of knowledge from the perspectives of Western philosophy and Islamic thought. Using a descriptive qualitative approach through the method of library research, data were collected from relevant primary and secondary literature. The analysis was conducted using historical and thematic approaches by examining philosophical texts as well as classical and contemporary Islamic literature. The findings show that Western philosophy classifies knowledge based on its origins namely empirical (based on experience), rational (based on reason), and intuitive (based on intuition) and distinguishes between a priori knowledge (prior to experience) and a posteriori knowledge (derived from experience). Meanwhile, Islamic epistemology regards revelation, reason, and the senses as complementary sources of knowledge that do not contradict one another. Knowledge in Islam is also classified hierarchically, such as ‘ilm al-yaqīn (knowledge through reliable information), ‘ayn al-yaqīn (knowledge through direct observation), and haqq al-yaqīn (true and certain knowledge). Furthermore, knowledge in Islam is differentiated into naqliyah and aqliyah sciences, fardhu ‘ain and fardhu kifayah obligations, as well as worldly and otherworldly knowledge. Comparatively, Western epistemology tends to be secular and separates the spiritual dimension from the sources of knowledge, whereas Islam integrates the divine dimension throughout the entire epistemic process. Thus, the Islamic paradigm of knowledge is holistic and transcendental, in contrast to the Western approach, which tends to be dualistic and fragmentary. These findings highlight that in Islam, knowledge is not only a means of understanding reality but also a path toward closeness to God and the construction of a meaningful life. This study emphasizes the importance of an integrative approach in understanding and developing knowledge, particularly in addressing the entrenched dichotomy of sciences in contemporary education. In this context, Islamic thought and Western philosophy can, in fact, enrich one another. Although Western epistemology tends to emphasize the rational and empirical aspects while detaching them from the spiritual dimension, the systematic and analytical methods developed in Western traditions can complement the Islamic worldview, which is both transcendental and ethical. By critically and selectively linking the two, it becomes possible to construct a more holistic framework of knowledge one that is not only focused on technical advancement but also spiritually and ethically meaningful for humanity.

TRANSFORMASI NALAR BAHTSUL MASAIL DALAM KEPUTUSAN REGULASI MINUMAN BERALKOHOL OLEH LBM PWNU DIY

2025-10-12T21:47:40+07:00

The adverse effects of alcoholic beverages have increased crime rates in Indonesia. As a preventive measure, the government has issued a policy regulating the distribution of alcoholic beverages. However, this policy is considered problematic and has sparked controversy from various parties, including religious institutions. This article explores the views of the Bahtsul Masail Institute (LBM) PWNU DIY on the regulation of alcoholic beverages in Indonesia. Specifically, it examines the arguments that form the basis for supporting this regulation. This study uses a qualitative approach with a literature review and descriptive-analytical presentation. The primary source is taken from the bahtsul masail decision of LBM PWNU DIY on November 9, 2024, which took place at the ORA AJI Islamic Boarding School in Sleman. Meanwhile, secondary sources are taken from news, articles, and other relevant supporting scientific works. The findings of this study show that there are three main arguments that emerge: First, the use of maqashid al-syariah. Second, consideration of the social and economic situation. Third, legal compromise. These three findings form the basis for the LBM PWNU DIY in supporting the government's policy on the restriction of alcoholic beverages. The findings also show a shift in the reasoning of bahtsul masail in the process of exploring fiqh law from the concept of “qauli” (following the views of classical scholars) which is theocentric to “manhaji” (using a contextual methodological framework) which considers actual human needs.
