Lina Rahma Sari — 2026-05-02

TikTok has emerged as a popular digital platform for teenagers, enabling the sharing of short videos that engage students. This study investigates the use of TikTok as a learning medium for Aqidah Akhlak among tenth-grade students at MAN 1 Padangsidimpuan, while also identifying challenges in its implementation. Adopting a descriptive qualitative approach, the research involved observations, interviews, and documentation. Findings suggest that TikTok positively influences student interest and comprehension, facilitating easier material delivery through video content. However, challenges such as limited internet access, insufficient teacher skills in educational content creation, and the necessity for supervision to align usage with learning objectives were noted. The research aims to enhance learning theories using digital technology and inform schools in developing relevant, technology-based educational innovations, potentially guiding policies for improved quality in learning.

MORAL EDUCATION FOR ADOLESCENTS IN THE FAMILY

Rahmad Furqon Siregar — 2026-05-03

Some parents believe that formal schools provide a quality education, without enough attention to their children's moral development at home. As the first place children learn values and norms, the family shapes adolescents' Islamic behavior. This study describes moral education for adolescents and parents' role in instilling moral values in Desa Sitaratoit, Angkola Barat District, Tapanuli Selatan Regency. The descriptive qualitative study uses observation, interviews, and documentation with parents and adolescents as informants. The results indicate that some adolescents still struggle with religious duties, parental respect, and self- and social-respect. Peer influence, inconsistent parental supervision, and increased digital media exposure, which can conflict with Islamic values, contribute to these shortcomings. Village parents have encouraged religious activities and set examples through daily conduct to guide and advise. Working parents still struggle with time constraints, parenting styles, and external influences. These challenges highlight the need for stronger family-school-community collaboration to instill moral values and help adolescents develop noble character in line with Islamic principles.

Erni Yanti Hasibuan — 2026-05-03

Character education has become a major focus in the modern era, especially to address various deviant behaviors resulting from moral decline. One relevant source of moral values is Fihi Ma Fihi by Jalaluddin Rumi, which is rich in spiritual and ethical messages. This study aims to analyze the character education values contained in the translated version of Fihi Ma Fihi and explore their relevance for strengthening character today, using content analysis methods with the main source being the translated text of Fihi Ma Fihi and supported by related literature. The findings show that Fihi Ma Fihi highlights two main character values: religious values—including awareness of God, obedience, steadfastness, repentance, and humility—and integrity values, reflected in honesty, responsibility, and consistency between words and actions. Both values are highly relevant and align with the character education promoted by the Ministry of Education and Culture. In conclusion, Fihi Ma Fihi makes a significant contribution to strengthening character education and can serve as a reference for character development both in educational settings and in the wider community.

Wira Yolanda — 2026-05-04

This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the group discussion method in Fiqh learning for grade XI students at MAN 1 Pasaman Barat. The background of this research is based on the low level of student participation and motivation due to the teacher-centered learning approach. This study employed a descriptive qualitative method with data collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The research subjects were the Fiqh teacher and grade XI students. The findings indicate that the implementation of the group discussion method was effective in increasing student engagement during the learning process. Students became more active and confident in expressing opinions and demonstrated good teamwork within their groups. Furthermore, the discussion method positively influenced students’ critical thinking and communication skills. Although there were some obstacles such as varying levels of student participation and limited time, overall, the group discussion method was effective in creating an interactive and meaningful learning environment. Therefore, this method can be recommended as an alternative learning strategy to enhance the quality of Fiqh education in madrasahs.

The Islamic values referred to include aspects of faith, morality, and social awareness as reflected in the daily lives of the community. This research employs a descriptive qualitative method with data collected through observation, interviews, and documentation.
