The main focus of this research is to explore how applying this theme in the curriculum can affect students' character-building and competency development. This research also explores the effectiveness of applying the Project Based Learning (PjBL) model in implementing the P5 project. Using the PjBL model allows students to develop creativity and independence because they can process ideas and carry out various project activities independently. The research method used was qualitative with a descriptive approach. Data was collected through observation, interviews, discussions, and direct field research. The data were analyzed using a qualitative descriptive approach, which is expected to provide valuable insights for curriculum development that is more relevant to future educational needs and contribute to the understanding of strengthening the learner profile of Pancasila through a project-based learning approach. The implementation results show that learners can understand the importance of maintaining mental and physical health and develop 21st-century skills, such as critical thinking, creativity, communication, and collaboration. These findings suggest that integrating PjBL in the Merdeka Curriculum can be an effective strategy for building learner competencies following the values of the Pancasila Learner Profile.</p> Nanik Setyawati, Mulyanah Mulyanah, Astrilina Pamuningtyas, Suryo Prakoso Arda Nugroho, Firdaus Firdaus Copyright (c) 2025 Nanik Setyawati, Mulyanah Mulyanah, Astrilina Pamuningtyas, Suryo Prakoso Arda Nugroho, Firdaus Firdaus https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 https://jurnal.seutiahukamaa.org/index.php/istifham/article/view/87 Fri, 09 May 2025 00:00:00 +0700 Transformation of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) Learning through an Emotional Approach https://jurnal.seutiahukamaa.org/index.php/istifham/article/view/96 <p>The emotional approach in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) learning enhances students' understanding and motivation. Focusing solely on cognitive aspects is often less effective in shaping students' character and morals according to Islamic values. The emotional approach enables students to internalize Islamic values more deeply by engaging their feelings and personal experiences in learning. This study employs a literature review method by analyzing various scholarly sources discussing the emotional approach in PAI learning. The findings indicate that storytelling, experiential learning, and collective worship practices can increase students' emotional engagement, making learning more meaningful. Furthermore, a positive relationship between teachers and students and a school environment that supports Islamic values contributes to students' learning motivation. Therefore, the emotional approach should be more widely implemented in PAI learning to achieve more effective and impactful Islamic education.</p> Rufika Naumi, Suriana Suriana, Ukhwatun Nazila Copyright (c) 2025 Rufika Naumi, Suriana Suriana, Ukhwatun Nazila https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 https://jurnal.seutiahukamaa.org/index.php/istifham/article/view/96 Sat, 10 May 2025 00:00:00 +0700 Implementation of Madrasah Head Supervision in Improving Teacher Personality Competence https://jurnal.seutiahukamaa.org/index.php/istifham/article/view/97 <p>The implementation of supervision plays an important role in the world of education, especially related to improving and enhancing the personality competence of teachers.

This study aims to analyze how these two approaches can be synchronized in an effective, adaptive, and holistic curriculum design. A curriculum combining technological aspects with a traditional approach is expected to comprehensively develop students' academic potential and character. On the other hand, the role of teachers in an increasingly digitalized learning ecosystem must also be reconstructed so that they function not only as teachers but also as facilitators, innovators, and curators of knowledge. This study uses a qualitative approach with a literature study, analyzing relevant literature on integrating technology in education and the role of teachers in that context. The study results show that synchronization between the deep learning approach and traditional learning requires a curriculum design that is oriented toward mastery of technology and the formation of character values ​​and students' social competence. In addition, strengthening teacher capacity is key to implementing a transformative curriculum based on technology and human values.</p> Ridwan Ali Copyright (c) 2025 Ridwan Ali https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 https://jurnal.seutiahukamaa.org/index.php/istifham/article/view/100 Mon, 09 Jun 2025 00:00:00 +0700 Modernization of Islamic Thought Amidst the Challenges of Radicalism and Secularism https://jurnal.seutiahukamaa.org/index.php/istifham/article/view/86 <p>This article discusses the modernization of Islamic thought as a response to the increasingly complex challenges of radicalism and secularism in the contemporary era. Modernization in Islamic thought aims to align religious principles with the dynamics of developments in the era without sacrificing the core values of Islam. On the one hand, radicalism emerges as a movement that rejects all forms of change and modernity, often using the pretext of religion to legitimize violence and intolerance. On the other hand, secularism offers an approach that separates religion from public life, thus potentially reducing the role of spirituality in the social order. Through literature analysis and case studies in several Muslim countries, this article explores the strategy of modernizing Islamic thought that can be a middle ground between the two extremes. The results of the study indicate that the modernization of Islamic thought must be based on a deep understanding of classical texts, accompanied by contextualization according to the social and cultural needs of today's society. In addition, collaboration between Muslim intellectuals and traditional scholars plays an important role in spreading a moderate, inclusive, and relevant understanding of Islam. In conclusion, the modernization of Islamic thought can be an effective solution in bridging the need to adapt to global change without ignoring the essence of Islamic teachings, while at the same time countering the threats of radicalism and secularism. This research contributes to the development of moderate Islamic discourse that is appropriate to the modern socio-political context.</p> Surni Kadir, Nurhayati Abd.
