Examining the Effect of Work-Life Balance and Work Engagement on Employee Performance: A Study at Bank Syariah Palu, Indonesia

Fauzan Almahdali — Mon, 20 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000

The merger that formed Bank Syariah Indonesia (BSI) has brought new challenges in human resource management, where employee performance is a key factor for success in the Islamic financial sector. This study develops a conceptual framework on the influence of Work-Life Balance (WLB) and Work Engagement (WE) on employee performance, with an empirical focus on BSI Palu. The literature indicates that WLB helps employees balance work and personal life, positively affecting productivity, whereas WE reflects emotional attachment, dedication, and energy that enhance service quality and performance. The proposed model positions WLB and WE as determinants of employee performance, contributing to the literature by extending the Job Demands–Resources Model to Islamic banking. Practically, this suggests that BSI should implement HR policies that strengthen WLB and WE to improve competitiveness and sustainability. This conceptual framework can serve as a foundation for future studies.

Freddy Herdian — Mon, 20 Oct 2025 06:49:32 +0000

Digital lending services for pre-retirement and retirement loan products are emerging as a crucial support for civil servants approaching pension in Central Sulawesi. This study examines how personal branding, service innovation, and the use of empathy maps influence customer satisfaction in digital lending, with customer trust as a mediating variable. A quantitative survey of 100 respondents in Central Sulawesi (2023–2025) was conducted and analyzed using PLS-SEM. The results indicate that personal branding, service innovation, and empathy maps each have a positive and significant effect on customer trust and satisfaction. Customer trust also positively affects satisfaction and partially mediates the relationship between those factors and satisfaction. The proposed model explains a substantial portion of variance in trust and satisfaction. These findings highlight the importance of building a strong personal brand, continuously innovating services, and adopting empathetic approaches to improve customer trust and satisfaction in digital loan services for the pre-retirement and retirement segment.

Academically, this study broadens the discourse on bureaucratic digitalization in developing countries, while practically, it offers recommendations for leadership strategies, fostering innovation, and improving civil servants’ digital literacy to achieve effective and responsive governance.

Productive Waqf and Efforts to Renew Waqf Law in the Jasser Auda System Approach

Mohammad Fauzan — Mon, 20 Oct 2025 07:38:15 +0000

Productive waqf represents a new paradigm of Islamic philanthropy that shifts the focus from passive asset maintenance to active asset development, aiming to maximize the socio-economic benefits of the community. This transformation inherently demands a reform of traditional waqf law, which tends to be conservative. This article analyzes efforts to reform waqf law, particularly regarding the diversification of waqf objects and management flexibility, through the lens of Jasser Auda's Systems Approach . The analysis shows that productive waqf aligns with Auda's Purposefulness feature , which reconstructs the Maqasid of Sharia from protection to development . This approach justifies the expansion of waqf objects (e.g., cash waqf and intellectual property rights) and provides a philosophical foundation for Istibdal (change of function) to realize the welfare of the community in a holistic and sustainable manner. Furthermore, the use of this systems approach is important in managing waqf investment risks, which is a logical consequence of the development -oriented paradigm.

Implementation of Sharia Good Governance through Non-Cash Payment Systems

Ulyani Ulyani, Muh. Yunus, Juliana Kadang, Vitayanti fattah — Tue, 21 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000

This study aims to explore the implementation of a cashless payment system at the Ministry of Religious Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia in the Central Sulawesi region and its relationship to the implementation of Sharia-based good governance. Using a qualitative approach and phenomenological methodology, this study explores the subjective experiences of stakeholders directly involved in the management and implementation of the cashless payment system. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with heads of work units, Commitment Making Officers (PPK), State Treasurers, and Sharia economic experts, as well as field observations to understand the practical implementation of this system. The results indicate that the implementation of a cashless payment system can improve administrative efficiency and transparency in financial management, which aligns with the principles of good governance, such as accountability and transparency. However, this study also identified significant challenges, including limited digital infrastructure and technological literacy in some regions, which hamper wider implementation. Furthermore, although this system supports Sharia values in terms of reducing transactions containing elements of riba (usury) and maysir (gambling), there is still room for improved oversight to ensure transactions are completely free from practices that are inconsistent with Sharia principles. In conclusion, the implementation of a non-cash payment system has great potential to support Sharia-based good governance in the public sector, but requires strengthening infrastructure, training, and stricter supervision to ensure its success.

Mapping the Research Landscape: A Bibliometric Analysis of Working Capital Management

Nuriatullah Nuriatullah — Tue, 21 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000

This study conducted a bibliometric analysis of the development of the working capital management (WCM) literature by reviewing 99 journal articles from 2011 to 2025. The results show that WCM is a growing research field with a primary focus on working capital efficiency, the cash conversion cycle (CCC), and corporate profitability. The study identified that the majority of contributions come from authors and institutions in Europe and Asia, with a significant increase in international collaboration.

As a result, collaborative work patterns remain informal and suboptimal. Therefore, institutional strengthening, halal regulations, certification, human resource capacity building, and government policy support are needed to realize professional and sustainable halal tourism destinations in developing the local economy.

“Montolutusan-Mondopulian” A Local Cultural Wisdom as a Media to Bond the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia Based on Ethnographic Communication Discourse Analysis.

Rustam Rustam, Rusli Takunas, Hairudin Cikka — Wed, 22 Oct 2025 00:46:47 +0000

This paper examines the development of modern society, influenced by information technology, which presents both challenges and opportunities for the preservation of local culture. Globalization and information, as the gateway to the third millennium, have captivated every Indonesian citizen seeking freedom, seeking hedonistic and materialistic trends for temporary pleasure, while lacking awareness that social reality is slowly becoming fragile. Traditional practices considered rooted in Indonesian culture are being shaken by the impact of globalization. The Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia (NKRI), comprising diverse ethnicities, cultures, and languages, feels disturbed by modern civilization. Similarly, the diversity of ethnicities, languages, and cultures in Central Sulawesi Province, particularly in its three sister regencies: Banggai Regency, Banggai Kepulauan Regency, and Banggai Laut Regency, is evident. Based on the results of the analysis, it can be concluded that all the slogans, mottos, principles of the Banggai people; "Montolutusan" and "Mondopulian" or similar, although they do not have the same essence as a way of life that exists in the territory of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia (NKRI) is one of the media of local cultural wisdom that must be maintained, guarded, preserved and socialized as a system against the onslaught of globalization-information and liberalization that can hit and dispel the tranquility, peace and welfare of all Indonesian people as stated in the results of the analysis of table 3, table 4 and table 5.

Exploring the Potential of Professional Zakat among Digital Content Workers: A Study on Facebook Pro Creators in Rarampadende Village, Sigi Regency

Sitti Aisya, Sindy Pratiwi, Nadia Nadia — Wed, 22 Oct 2025 01:05:56 +0000

This study investigates the potential of professional zakat among digital workers who earn income through Facebook Pro monetization in Rarampadende Village, Dolo Barat District, Sigi Regency. The emergence of digital professions such as content creators, YouTubers, and social media influencers has transformed the modern economy, presenting new challenges and opportunities for Islamic financial obligations, particularly zakat. Using an empirical legal approach combined with qualitative descriptive analysis, data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving local Facebook Pro content creators. The findings reveal that despite having considerable income potential, most digital workers lack awareness regarding the obligation of zakat on their professional earnings. The implementation of the Fatwa Ijtima’ Ulama Komisi Fatwa Se-Indonesia VIII No. 04/VIII/2024 concerning zakat on digital income provides a relevant framework for guiding these professions toward compliance with Islamic law. The study concludes that digital zakat has significant potential to enhance socio-economic justice if effectively managed through institutional and technological integration.

Theoretically, this study is grounded in Mezirow’s Transformative Learning Theory, Becker’s Human Capital Theory, and Sen’s Human Development Theory, which collectively explain how equivalency education transforms perspectives, enhances individual capacities, and expands life opportunities. The results of this study are expected to serve as an evaluation and development reference for non-formal education programs to strengthen their contribution to improving community quality of life.

Ethical Dimensions and Values in Science: Between Neutrality and Interests

Dirsan I.Totou — Wed, 22 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000

Science is often regarded as a rational human endeavor to understand reality objectively, free from prejudice and particular values. However, throughout its development, science has never been completely detached from the ethical dimensions and values underlying both its processes and outcomes. This article examines the tension between scientific neutrality and the social, political, and economic interests that inevitably accompany scientific activity. On the one hand, neutrality is considered an essential requirement to preserve the validity and universality of scientific knowledge. The principle of neutrality allows knowledge to be justified logically and methodologically, without being bound to the subjectivity of researchers or specific groups. On the other hand, scientific practice cannot be separated from various interests, whether in the form of research funding, policy orientation, or the broader social consequences of its applications. Therefore, ethical dimensions emerge as a balance to ensure that science does not merely become an instrument of power, but continues to serve humanity. This article highlights the importance of integrating scientific objectivity with moral responsibility, so that science does not lose its social significance. An ethical approach to knowledge development includes awareness of the impacts of research, the need for transparency in scientific processes, and the recognition that universal values such as justice, sustainability, and humanity must guide every production of knowledge. Thus, science should not only be understood as the accumulation of data and theories but also as a transformative tool that shapes civilization. In conclusion, the relationship between neutrality and interest should not be viewed as a contradiction, but rather as a dialectic requiring balance. Neutrality safeguards objectivity, while ethical interests ensure that knowledge remains relevant to human life. The integration of both will generate knowledge that is not only methodologically valid but also morally and socially meaningful.

Analysis of Truth Theories: Inductive, Deductive, and Alternatives in Science

Fachri Fachri — Wed, 22 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000

This article discusses the concept of truth in the philosophy of science, emphasizing that truth is not a singular entity but can be understood through various theories and approaches. Classical theories, such as correspondence, coherence, and pragmatics, explain truth from the perspective of conformity to reality, logical consistency, and practical utility. Furthermore, this article outlines the role of inductive, deductive, and alternative approaches (performative and constructive) in the development of science. The inductive approach emphasizes drawing general conclusions from specific facts, while the deductive approach starts from general principles to specific conclusions. Performative and constructivist theories, as alternative approaches, broaden the horizons of understanding truth through language that creates realities and generative learning experiences. The results of this study indicate that the integration of these three approaches enriches scientific methodology and provides a more comprehensive philosophical foundation for building and developing science.

The Influence of Chat Notifications from a Crush on My Consistency in Writing a Thesis

Dandi Dandi — Wed, 22 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000

This study aims to analyze the influence of chat notifications from a “crush” on the author’s consistency in working on a thesis. The research type employed is a reflective autoethnographic study with a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were obtained through the author’s daily journals, reflective analysis of personal experiences, and internal triangulation by comparing baseline days without notifications and days with notifications from a significant individual. The findings indicate that chat notifications have a dual impact. On the one hand, notifications can foster motivation, joy, and renewed energy that encourage thesis completion as a form of academic achievement. On the other hand, notifications often serve as distractions that reduce focus, disrupt thought flow, and decrease long-term productivity. The positive or negative effects are strongly influenced by the author’s emotional state, making self-regulation a key factor in minimizing digital distractions and maintaining learning consistency. This study illustrates that a seemingly simple phenomenon, such as chat notifications from a crush, can have significant implications for the psychological, cognitive, and academic dynamics of students.

Rizki Rivaldi — Wed, 22 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000

Reading the Qur'an is different from reading ordinary texts because it has special rules such as makhraj, letter properties, and tajwid that must be mastered to avoid errors in meaning. This study used a descriptive qualitative approach at MTs An Nur Buuts Palu in April–July 2025 with subjects of grade VII Islamic Religious Education teachers as well as informants of the madrasah principal, students, and parents. Data were obtained through interviews, observations, and documentation, then tested with triangulation of techniques and sources, and analyzed through collection, reduction, presentation, and drawing conclusions (Sugiyono, 2012). The results showed that students experienced difficulties in fluently pronouncing the hijaiyah letters, did not understand the rules of tajwid, and did not read the harakat regularly. The teacher's strategy to overcome this was carried out by providing materials and motivation, involving peer tutors, and an additional one-hour program specifically for reading the Qur'an outside the classroom. Inhibiting factors found included peer influence, diverse student backgrounds, and the impact of electronic media. This study emphasizes the importance of integrated learning strategies involving teachers, parents, and schools to optimally improve students' ability to read the Qur'an.

Islamic Education, Sharia Economics, Curriculum Integration, Competitiveness, Holistic Development

Rohaida Rohaida — Wed, 22 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has emerged as one of the most transformative technologies of the 21st century, influencing various fields including law, economics, education, and healthcare. Its application in Islamic law (fiqh) and jurisprudence (ushul al-fiqh) presents both promising opportunities and pressing challenges. This paper explores the potentials and limitations of AI in Islamic jurisprudence, focusing on its role as a supportive tool in legal reasoning and decision-making. Using a normative and literature-based method, the study finds that AI can enhance the accessibility of Islamic legal resources, assist in fatwa issuance through data analysis, and provide comparative insights across classical and contemporary jurisprudence. However, AI also has significant limitations: it lacks moral and spiritual agency, cannot grasp the maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah (higher objectives of Islamic law), and risks misinterpretation if not supervised by qualified scholars. The study concludes that AI should not replace the role of mujtahid or Islamic jurists but should be positioned as a supplementary tool to strengthen research, facilitate knowledge dissemination, and support human scholars in responding to contemporary legal challenges.

Sandi Wiyanto — Wed, 22 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000

This study discusses the concept of moral education according to Imam Al-Ghazali and its relevance to contemporary Islamic education. Al-Ghazali emphasizes education as a comprehensive process that not only focuses on the acquisition of knowledge but also on the formation of the soul, the purification of the heart (Tazkiyat al-Nafs), and the cultivation of moral character. According to Al-Ghazali, ideal education aims to develop individuals who demonstrate noble behavior, contribute positively to society, and achieve salvation in the hereafter, with teachers acting as murabbi who instill moral values through exemplary behavior and spiritual guidance. This research employs a library research method, collecting data from literature, books, and recent scientific journals (2019–2025) related to moral education and Al-Ghazali’s thought. The findings indicate that Al-Ghazali’s principles of moral education remain highly relevant in contemporary Islamic education. The implementation of Tazkiyat al-Nafs fosters students’ moral and spiritual awareness, the cultivation of character and the soul balances academic achievement with ethical development, and the role of teachers as murabbi provides concrete moral exemplars. Thus, Al-Ghazali’s moral education serves as a fundamental foundation for shaping a generation that is knowledgeable, ethical, and morally upright in the modern era.

Therefore, understanding the philosophy of science is an important foundation in designing an education system that is more adaptive, reflective, and contextual to today's challenges.

Gen Z's Perception of Marriage in the Digital Age: Analysis from the Perspective of Islamic Family Law

Rina Mega Utari — Wed, 22 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000

The phenomenon of "Marriage is Scary" that is prevalent among Generation Z shows a paradigm shift towards marriage, from what was originally seen as a sacred ritual to something that causes anxiety. The dominant factors influencing the emergence of this phenomenon include exposure to social media content, personal experiences, parental marital failures, and the influence of patriarchal culture. Generation Z tends to delay marriage and prioritize career, personal happiness, and financial stability. This study uses qualitative methods with literature review and a normative-sociological approach. Data were obtained from the Qur'an, the Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI), and related academic literature. The results of the study show that although digital content contributes to the emergence of fear of marriage, the role of Islamic family law remains relevant in providing normative solutions. Articles 15–17 of the KHI emphasize the aspects of age, valid marriage requirements, and moral responsibilities based on maqāṣid al-syarī‘ah. However, these regulations are considered limited and need to be strengthened to be more adaptive to the psychosocial challenges of Generation Z. Thus, the renewal of Islamic family law based on maqāṣid and the integration of premarital guidance programs are key to constructively addressing the "Marriage is Scary" phenomenon.

Data indicate that education based on Islamic values contributes to the improvement of literacy and social awareness. However, challenges such as the lack of access to quality education and the integration of general knowledge still need to be addressed. In conclusion, Islamic education and knowledge must continue to be developed to remain relevant to the needs of modern society and to shape individuals who are morally upright and well-informed.

Can Criminal Cases be Settled Amicably? (From the Perspective of Positive Law and Islamic Law)

Qalbia Qalbia, Rinda Marista, Muhammad Gufran, Muhlis Muhlis — Wed, 22 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000

This study discusses the settlement of criminal cases through a familial approach from the perspective of positive law and Islamic law. The focus of the study is directed at the interaction between formal legal principles in the Criminal Code (KUHP) and alternative dispute resolution mechanisms, including mediation and restorative justice. Meanwhile, from an Islamic law perspective, the principle of sulh (peace) is an important basis that allows certain criminal cases to be resolved through deliberation. This study uses a normative qualitative approach by examining legal literature, regulations, and the opinions of classical and contemporary scholars. The results of the study show that the settlement of criminal cases through family channels has limited scope in positive law, namely in minor criminal offences, certain criminal offences with complaint offences, and the implementation of restorative justice in accordance with the regulations of the Supreme Court and the Attorney General's Office. Meanwhile, in Islamic law, broader opportunities are provided as long as they are not related to hudud and qishash, but rather jarimah ta'zir, which is entirely at the discretion of the authorities. This researcher concludes that the synergy between positive law and Islamic law in the application of family-based resolution can strengthen the principle of legal benefit in Indonesia.

Issues in the Islamic Education Curriculum in the Modern Era

Rahmat Hidayat — Wed, 22 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000

The advancement of science and technology in the modern era has significantly impacted various aspects of life, including the educational system. As an integral part of the national education system, Islamic education is required to continuously adapt in order to remain relevant amidst the rapid changes of the times. The curriculum, being the core component of the educational process, must be reviewed and developed to address global challenges while preserving the fundamental values of Islamic teachings. The current era, characterized by technological progress, globalization, and dynamic social change, demands that Islamic education remain both relevant and functional. In this context, the development of the Islamic education curriculum has become a strategic issue—not only in terms of transforming content and teaching methods, but also in integrating Islamic values with 21st-century competencies. Key challenges include the gap between traditional curricula and real-world needs, the lack of pedagogical innovation, and limited resources to support educational modernization. In practice, curriculum development in Islamic education continues to face issues such as the dichotomy between religious and secular sciences, insufficient integration of Islamic values into contextual learning, and a lack of innovation in instructional methods. Moreover, external challenges such as secularization, the dominance of foreign cultural influences, and moral crises among the younger generation pose serious threats that must be addressed through targeted curriculum reforms. Therefore, a holistic, contextual, and responsive approach to curriculum development is essential—one that adapts to contemporary changes without compromising the core principles of Islam. Research and in-depth studies on this issue are crucial in formulating effective strategies for developing a curriculum that is adaptive, morally grounded, and capable of producing a generation of Muslims who are intellectually, spiritually, and socially competent.

Therefore, schools, teachers, and parents need to play an active role in creating a safe and supportive learning environment to effectively prevent and deal with bullying. This study is expected to serve as a basis for the development of policies and programs to prevent bullying in schools.

A Comparison of the Working Methods of Natural Science, Social Science, and Religion from the Perspective of the Philosophy of Science

Rezkiyah Amanda — Wed, 22 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000

This research aims to compare the workings of natural sciences, social sciences, and religious studies from the perspective of the philosophy of science. The comparison focuses on fundamental aspects: the method of seeking truth and the characteristics of the resulting truth. Natural sciences study physical reality and empirical phenomena that are objective and exist independently of the observer. The approach follows the scientific method, which includes structured observation, hypothesis formulation, and controlled experiments. The truth in natural sciences is considered relative, as scientific theories are continuously tested and refined. In contrast, social sciences deal with highly complex and subjective objects of study: human beings and society. Truth in social sciences is often contextual and varied, reflecting the multiple interpretations of social reality. Philosophy views social sciences as aligning with an ontological approach that describes the nature of individual social reality, reinforced by an epistemological foundation that explains the nature of knowledge about reality, from how knowledge is acquired to its validity. Religious studies, on the other hand, have a transcendental object, which goes beyond ordinary physical experience. The method is based on revelation and faith, where truth is considered to come from an absolute divine source. The search for truth is carried out through the interpretation of sacred texts and spiritual experience, not through empirical observation or experimentation. Consequently, the truth in religious studies is seen as dogmatic and absolute, not subject to scientific evidence.

Moral and Ethical Challenges in the Utilization of Artificial Intelligence from the Perspective of Islamic Education

Ria Indriani — Wed, 22 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000

The advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has transformed many aspects of human life, including the educational field. Despite its remarkable benefits, the application of AI also introduces various moral and ethical issues that must be critically examined through the lens of Islamic educational philosophy. This study seeks to explore how Islamic moral principles can guide the responsible use of AI within educational settings. Employing a descriptive-qualitative approach, the research investigates the intersection between technological progress and moral accountability in shaping learners’ character. The results indicate that although AI can enhance educational quality and effectiveness, it simultaneously presents ethical challenges such as data misuse, the decline of human interaction, and the erosion of spiritual and moral awareness. Hence, it is crucial to integrate Islamic ethical values—such as justice, sincerity, responsibility, and empathy—into the design and application of AI-based education. The study emphasizes that Islamic education should take an active role in directing AI implementation to ensure that technology supports holistic human development grounded in faith, morality, and knowledge.

The Status of Children Born of Illegitimate Marriages Due to Fake Guardians

Suardi Kandjai — Wed, 22 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000

Marriage annulment or fasakh in Islamic law occurs when a marriage is deemed invalid due to the absence of one of its essential requirements or conditions, or because it is based on a prohibited cause. This study aims to analyze the court decision in case Number: 1322/Pdt.G/2012/PA.Plg concerning the annulment of marriage due to the use of a false guardian (wali palsu). The research focuses on: (1) how Islamic law regulates the role of a guardian in marriage as reflected in the decision, and (2) the legal status of the marriage and the child born from a marriage involving a false guardian. This study employs a library research method, utilizing both primary and secondary sources such as books, journals, notes, and legal documents. The findings reveal that a marriage conducted with a false guardian is void according to Islamic law, as it fails to meet the fundamental requirements of a valid marriage. Nevertheless, a child born from such annulled marriage remains legitimate, with lineage (nasab) recognized from both parents. This is consistent with Islamic legal principles that emphasize the protection of children’s rights. Consequently, the child retains civil rights, including inheritance from both parents, based on kinship ties. In conclusion, although the marriage is annulled due to the false guardian, the status and rights of the child remain safeguarded to prevent any loss of fundamental entitlements.

Artificial Intelligence in Prenatal and Postnatal Child Education: A ReviewIbn Qayyim Al-Jauziyyah's Thoughts

Allifia Sri Cahyani — Wed, 22 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000

Education in Islam is lifelong, extending from the prenatal to postnatal phase. Ibn Qayyim al-Jauziyyah emphasized that a child's physical, psychological, moral, and spiritual development must begin in the womb and continue after birth. This principle encompasses practices such as the call to prayer (adhan), giving a good name, aqiqah (ceremonial offering), role models, dietary patterns, and the instilling of moral behavior. Postnatal education, in particular, plays a strategic role in shaping a child's character, morals, and cognitive intelligence. As technology advances, artificial intelligence (AI) offers opportunities to support these educational principles in a more adaptive and systematic way. AI can be implemented in the form of interactive applications, educational chatbots, personalized learning media, and behavioral analysis systems that monitor children's cognitive, emotional, and moral development in real time. A 2020–2025 literature review indicates that AI can increase learning motivation, emotional engagement, and moral stimulation in early childhood, although ethical, theological, and infrastructure challenges still limit its application. This research uses a qualitative literature study approach with sources from Ibn Qayyim's texts, Islamic literature, and educational AI articles and journals. The analysis was conducted through thematic synthesis and concept mapping. The results confirm that the integration of Ibn Qayyim's classical thought with modern AI-based innovations can form a new conceptual foundation for postnatal Islamic education. This integration not only strengthens cognitive aspects but also provides a personalized, adaptive, and data-driven tool for shaping children's morals and character. Therefore, the use of AI aligned with Islamic values has the potential to enrich child-rearing practices within families and educational institutions.

A Fuzzy Inference System Sugeno Based Framework for Evaluating the Quality of Islamic Education Institutions

Nadya Humairah Ramadhany — Wed, 22 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000

This study aims to develop a conceptual framework for evaluating the quality of Islamic educational institutions using a Sugeno based Fuzzy Inference System (FIS). Islamic education encompasses multiple dimensions spiritual, academic, managerial, and social that are inherently complex and often subjective, making conventional evaluation methods insufficient. The study employs a qualitative library research approach, analyzing peer-reviewed journals, academic books, and institutional quality reports to construct a comprehensive FIS Sugeno model. Key quality indicators, including teacher competence, curriculum relevance, facilities, management, and graduate outcomes, are defined as fuzzy input variables and processed through fuzzification, rule-based inference, and defuzzification to generate objective and consistent quality scores. The conceptual model demonstrates that the Sugeno FIS effectively manages uncertainty and ambiguity in qualitative data, providing a systematic and transparent evaluation framework. The proposed approach not only enhances the accuracy and reliability of quality assessments but also supports educational institutions in formulating adaptive and context-sensitive strategies for continuous improvement. The study contributes both theoretically and practically by integrating artificial intelligence methods into Islamic education management and offering a foundation for further empirical applications across madrasahs, pesantrens, and higher education institutions.
