EXPLOITATION OF NATURE AND SPIRITUAL DECADENCE: ETHICAL RESPONSIBILITY IN ISLAM THROUGH RITUAL AND RELIGIOSITY AS THE FOUNDATION OF HUMANITY

Irham Multazam, Binti Khalimatuzzahro, Ahmad Muttaqin
Abstract: The large-scale exploitation of nature currently occurring in Indonesia reflects a crisis of spirituality among modern humans in their understanding and treatment of nature. The loss of sacred awareness of nature as God's… s creation has led to an exploitative, rather than participatory, relationship between humans and nature. This study aims to examine the connection between the exploitation of nature and spiritual decadence, as well as how Islamic values can provide a relevant and transformative ecological ethical framework. The method used is a qualitative study with a literature review approach, involving critical analysis of Islamic texts and spiritual ecology theories from thinkers such as Seyyed Hossein Nasr and Roy A. Rappaport. The results of the study show that Islamic principles such as Tawhid, Khilafah, Amanah, and Shari'ah have strong potential to shape spiritual-based ecological awareness. Additionally, rituals in traditional and religious communities also function as ecological and moral mechanisms. In conclusion, the reconstruction of Islamic spiritual values in an environmental context is essential to address contemporary ecological crises, particularly in Indonesia.

DESCRIPTION OF LOW DENSITY LIPOPROTEIN (LDL) LEVELS AND FASTING COMPLIANCE IN OUTPATIENT CARDIAC PATIENTS AT RSU PRIMA MEDIKA DENPASAR IN THE MONTHS OF FEBRUARY TO MARCH 2025

Ni Putu Martiana Prawita Sari, Nyoman Sudarma, Prasetya, Didik
Abstract: Cardiovascular disease remains a leading cause of death both globally and nationally, with Low Density Lipoprotein(LDL) levels serving as a key biochemical indicator in the screening and management of heart disease. Accurate&#8230; rate LDL testing requires adherence to pre-analytical procedures, particularly fasting for 10-12 hours. This study aimed to describe LDL levels and fasting compliance among outpatient cardiac patients at RSU Prima Medika Denpasar. A descriptive cross-sectional design was used with purposive sampling, involving 35 cardiac outpatients from February to March 2025. Data were collected through interviews and laboratory examinations using the Furuno CA-270 device. Results showed that 71% of respondents had LDL levels >100 mg/dL, indicating high levels, while 29% hadnormal levels (<100 mg/dL). All respondents (100%) complied with the fasting requirement. These findings indicate that high LDL levels are still commonly found among outpatient cardiac patients, particularly in productive-age males. The high level of fasting compliance reflects the effectiveness of pre-analytical patient education. This study emphasizes the importance of routine lipid screening and continuous education to enhance laboratory diagnostic accuracy and prevent cardiovascular complications.

Sinaga, Yusni
Abstract: Looking at the limited time for people, especially for students and looking at so many subjects that must be studied by a student, it seems that students do not have time to study their religious. Meanwhile, references to&#8230; o the teachings of the good character it self are only found in the students’ religious scriptures. so a wise teacher must be abble to involve the holy kitab of each student in every material being taught such as Al- Qur’an for Moeslem students’. Because all references can be found in the Al- Qur;an, for instance in surah Al-Kahfi specifically for the language mathery preposition. Al Qur’an can be used as a media for exercises and also as a media for finding examples of the preposition in grammar matery.  

QUANTITATIVE ROADMAP: EXPLORING METHODOLOGY THROUGH THE LENS LITERATURE REVIEW

Juniarti, Leni, Donna Boedi Maritasari, Dinda Rizka Amalia, Nurul Aini
Abstract: Quantitative research is a crucial foundation in the scientific landscape to understand phenomena objectively and measurably. Although essential, there is often a gap between methodological idealism and research practice,&#8230; , especially among novice researchers, which is indicated by the use of quantitative methods that are not optimal in student theses due to lack of mastery of methodology and statistics, marked by inconsistencies in variable logic, lack of theoretical basis, data bias, sampling technique errors, to inaccuracy in testing the validity of instruments and statistical analysis. Through a systematic and comprehensive literature review, this article aims to present a complete picture of the “roadmap” of quantitative research, including the essence, principles, key stages (starting from problem formulation, sample determination, instrument development, data collection, to analysis and interpretation of results), and its various types, rooted in the positivist paradigm that emphasizes objectivity and hypothesis testing. Although quantitative research offers significant advantages such as time efficiency and generalizability, challenges such as difficulty in data collection and lack of in-depth analysis also need to be overcome, so improving methodological and statistical training is crucial to producing valid, accountable scientific work that contributes significantly to the development of science.

DEVELOPING A HOLISTIC MUSLIM CHARACTER THROUGH MORALITY TOWARD ALLAH, THE PROPHET, PARANETS, AND THE SELF

Muthmainnah, Fitria, Nisa, Jihan Khairum
Abstract: the practice of morality toward Allah SWT, the Prophet Muhammad SAW, parents, and the self. Morality in Islam encompasses not only the vertical relationship with the Creator and His Messenger but also the horizontal relationship&#8230; tionship with fellow human beings and oneself. This research employs a qualitative method with a literature review approach, analyzing sources from the Qur’an, Hadith, and relevant academic studies. The findings indicate that integrating morality toward Allah and the Prophet serves as the fundamental foundation in shaping a strong character, while morality toward parents and oneself reinforces the social and psychological dimensions of a Muslim individual. Consistent application of these moral values contributes to the formation of a harmonious, responsible, and virtuous Muslim personality in daily life. This study offers significant implications for Islamic character education and spiritual development of the Muslim community

CLASSROOM ACTION RESEARCH IN THE PERSPECTIVE OF TEACHER PROFESSIONALISM: A THEORETICAL STUDY AND ITS IMPLICATIONS

Ervina, Ervina, Dwi Rahmah Fitri, Fitri Barokah, Zalia Sari
Abstract: Classroom Action Research (PTK) is a scientific approach that not only functions as a solution to learning problems in the classroom, but also as a strategic means in developing teacher professionalism. Through systematic&#8230; c reflection and continuous improvement, PTK encourages teachers to improve their pedagogical, professional, social, and personality competencies. Theoretically, PTK strengthens the foundations of constructivism and reflective learning practices, allowing teachers to dynamically connect theory and classroom reality. From a practical perspective, PTK has a direct impact on improving the quality of learning, student involvement, and changing teachers' professional attitudes. Although its implementation is faced with various challenges, both technical and psychological, solutions can be found through ongoing training, mentoring, and institutional support. Thus, PTK plays an important role in building an innovative work culture and improving the quality of education holistically.

PARADIGM AND RATIONALITY: CRITICAL REVIEW OF THE THOUGHTS OF THOMAS KUHN AND IBNU RUSYD

Lalu Ibnurusd Al Hafied
Abstract: This article critically examines the thoughts of Thomas Kuhn and Ibn Rushd in order to understand the epistemological structure and dynamics of science, by highlighting two fundamental concepts: paradigm and rationality.&#8230; Thomas Kuhn, through his theory of scientific revolutions , argued that the development of science does not occur linearly and cumulatively, but rather through paradigm leaps triggered by internal crises in the scientific community and resolved through collective consensus. On the other hand, Ibn Rushd, as a representative of rationalist philosophers in the classical Islamic thought treasury, places reason and logic as universal epistemic foundations in revealing scientific truth, and firmly rejects the dominance of theological authority that hinders freedom of thought. This study reveals that although both come from different traditions and historical contexts, there is a common ground in the critical attitude towards intellectual stagnation and the drive to open up space for renewal of thought. However, epistemologically, both show sharp divergences: Kuhn is based on contextual paradigmatic relativism, while Ibn Rushd is rooted in transhistorical rational objectivism. Using a comparative-philosophical approach, this article concludes that a critical synthesis of the two views can enrich contemporary discourse on the foundations and direction of the development of science.

Abstract: The objective of this research was to prove whether using Choral Reading strategy can improve reading comprehension of the eight grade students of SMP Negeri 13 Palu. This research limited the use of Choral Reading strategy&#8230; egy in improving students’ reading comprehension, which focuses on literal meaning and descriptive text. This research used quasi-experimental research design involving an Experimental class and a control class. The sample of this research were students of VII B as the experimental class, which consisted of 31 students, and the students of VIII A as the control class, which consisted of 31 students. The data was collected through pre-test and post-test. The result confirmed that the mean score of the experimental class had increased from 44.87 to 73.83. On the other hand, in the control class, it has increased from 48.29 to 62.64. The result of the test was analyzed statistically by applying 0.05 level significance. The researcher found that the value of the t-counted was higher than the t-table (4.59 > 1.67). In the other words, the implementation of choral reading strategy can develop students’ reading comprehension of the eighth-grade students of SMP Negeri 13 Palu. This strategy has a significant impact on the English learning process, especially helping students in reading comprehension to find information about the text and understand the entire meaning of the text, so that students can practice choral reading as their independent reading comprehension strategy in the future

ECOLOGICAL EDUCATION IN THE PROPHET’S HADITHS: A THEMATIC STUDY ON HADITHS RELATED TO THE ENVIRONMENT

Awan, Edy Kurniawan, Askar , Romlah Abubakar, Ghofur , Abdul
Abstract: Environmental awareness among humans regarding the importance of preserving nature—bestowed by Allah as a means to sustain life—is gradually declining. Irresponsible human actions frequently lead to environmental damage&#8230; age and ecological imbalance. If left unaddressed, such behavior poses serious threats to the continuity of life. This study aims to explore the Prophet Muhammad’s hadiths that emphasize the importance of environmental preservation. Employing a qualitative method with a literature review approach, this research analyzes relevant hadiths and scholarly interpretations. The findings reveal that the Prophet’s teachings on ecological preservation are comprehensive and highly relevant to contemporary environmental challenges. Most environmental degradation is a direct result of human actions, and the prophetic hadiths offer foundational solutions—framing what can be understood as an early model of ecological education in Islam.   Keywords : Ecological education, hadith, environment

CHILDREN’S EDUCATION AS PERPETUAL CHARITY: A THEMATIC STUDY OF THE PROPHET’S HADITH

Nur Mawaddah Islamiyah, Romlah Abu Bakar Askar, Abdul Ghofur
Abstract: The hadith of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) mentions three deeds that continue to benefit a person after death: ongoing charity (ṣadaqah jāriyah), beneficial knowledge, and a righteous child who prays for their parents.&#8230; parents. This hadith conveys a profound message about the importance of child education as a spiritual investment. This article aims to examine the urgency of children’s education from the perspective of this hadith by exploring the spiritual and social significance of having a righteous child as a continuous source of reward. This study employs a qualitative approach through library research, drawing on collections of hadith, classical Islamic literature (turas) such as the works of Imam al-Ghazali, Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyyah, and Imam Nawawī, as well as contemporary references from nationally accredited journals. The findings indicate that educating children possesses a transcendental dimension, making it a form of ongoing charity for parents—especially when the child grows to be righteous and contributes positively to society. This research recommends that the concept of child education should not be viewed solely from a worldly perspective but should also be instilled as part of eschatological awareness within the Islamic education system.
