Optimalisasi Peran Diba’iyah dan TPQ dalam Pelestarian Tradisi Keagamaan Lokal di Peterongan

Elysa Nurul Qomaria — 2026-04-17

This Community Service (PKM) activity aims to optimise the role of Diba’iyah and Al-Qur’an Education Centres (TPQ) in preserving local religious traditions in the Peterongan area. The Diba’iyah tradition, as part of Islamic cultural heritage, holds significant spiritual, social and educational value for the community, particularly the younger generation. However, with the passage of time, public interest and participation in these activities have tended to decline. The implementation methods of this PKM include a participatory approach through outreach, training, mentoring, and institutional strengthening of TPQs and Diba’iyah groups. The programme also integrates the teaching of Islamic values using approaches that are more engaging and contextually relevant for children and adolescents. The results of the activities indicate an increase in community participation, particularly among TPQ students, in Diba’iyah activities, as well as a greater understanding of local religious traditions. Furthermore, the formation of synergy between TPQ teachers, community leaders, and Diba’iyah groups serves as a key factor in ensuring the programme’s sustainability. Thus, optimising the roles of Diba’iyah and TPQ can serve as an effective strategy for preserving local religious traditions whilst strengthening the religious character of the younger generation in Peterongan.

Pemberdayaan dan Transformasi Digital: Menciptakan Tas Anyaman Tangguh Berkelanjutan di Era Society 5.0 Desa Krenceng Kecamatan Kepung Kediri Jawa Timur

Mohammad Anis Sumadi — 2026-04-18

Krenceng Village, Kepung Subdistrict, has great potential in the woven bag creative industry; however, artisans still face challenges related to design innovation, production efficiency, and low digital literacy. This study employs the Participatory Action Research (PAR) method, based on Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD), to promote the empowerment of MSMEs through participatory and sustainable digital transformation. The ABCD approach is used to identify and optimize local assets, both human capital and social capital, as the foundation for transformation, while PAR ensures active community involvement in every stage of change. The research stages include the following phases: (1) To Know, or mapping assets and issues; (2) To Dream, for digital vision planning; (3) To Do, through transformative action; and (4) To Check, as an evaluation of results. Data was collected through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) with village officials and artisan groups. The research results indicate that the integration of PAR-ABCD successfully shifted artisans’ mindset toward the digital ecosystem of Society 5.0. Key findings include: The creation of a variety of eco-friendly woven bag designs that meet the standards for resilient, sustainable products. Improved digital literacy in the use of e-marketplaces and visual branding. The formation of collective groups that strengthen bargaining power against middlemen. Minimization of technological resistance by integrating digital tools into traditional workflows. This study confirms that inclusive collaboration based on local assets can foster economic self-reliance for SMEs in the digital era.

Halal Da’wah and Product Certification: A Study of the Indonesian Council of Ulama (MUI) Fatwas on Food Trays within the MBG Government Program

Siti Nuri Nurhaidah — 2026-04-17

This study examines the role of halal-oriented da’wah in promoting halal values through product certification, with particular attention to fatwas issued by the Indonesian Council of Ulama (MUI) concerning the halal status of food trays within the government’s Free Nutritious Meal Program (MBG). Halal consumption has become a global concern and a significant component of contemporary Islamic practice. As a result, the scope of halal certification has expanded beyond food ingredients to include packaging and serving equipment. Food trays, which are widely used in the food industry, may involve materials derived from non-halal sources, thereby necessitating rigorous assessment from the perspective of Islamic law. This research adopts a qualitative approach, employing a case study method, literature review, and document analysis. The study encompasses MUI fatwas, government policies related to the MBG program, and recent academic discussions on halal food systems. The findings indicate that MUI fatwas function not only as legal instruments but also as a form of halal-oriented da’wah, integrating Qur’anic principles of halalan ṭayyiban into public life. Furthermore, the MBG program provides a strategic platform for institutionalizing halal certification as an integral component of national food quality standards. The study concludes that the halal certification of food trays represents an emerging dimension of da’wah, in which Islamic teachings are operationalized through regulatory practices, public policy frameworks, and industrial standards.

Pendampingan Kewirausahaan Syariah dan Pemanfaatan Word of Mouth Digital dalam Meningkatkan Kapasitas Usaha pada UMKM di Wonosalam Jombang

Reka Sakhinatur Rochma — 2026-04-25

The SME mentoring programme in Wonosalam, Jombang, is a strategic initiative to strengthen the resilience of local businesses in the face of sudden changes in the digital age. This initiative combines the principles of Islamic business ethics with modern marketing approaches. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of the intervention in enhancing operational capacity and expanding market reach for the partners, through five planned steps, ranging from problem identification to impact evaluation. The methodology employed is a descriptive quantitative approach using the Normalised Gain (N-Gain) framework to measure capacity growth among 10 key respondents operating in the coffee, plantation, and food processing sectors. The evaluation results showed an aggregate N-Gain figure of 0.06, which is considered low. However, qualitatively, a Response Shift Bias phenomenon has been identified. The decline in scores among some respondents actually reflects the success of the literacy programme; participants have become more aware of the limitations of their knowledge and have begun to provide more honest and realistic self-assessments. The programme has successfully highlighted the values of Amanah and Siddiq as its Unique Selling Proposition (USP) by establishing a Digital Trust Badge through the optimisation of social media and the quality of visual content. Nevertheless, systemic challenges such as administrative irregularities and the risk of digital Gharar remain to be addressed. Education regarding the Khiyar contract and the standardisation of Islamic financial management are required as mitigation measures. In conclusion, the collaboration between Islamic entrepreneurial values and digital marketing strategies can serve as a catalyst for Wonosalam’s SMEs to grow into a self-reliant and competitive economic force.
