Multiculturalism emerges as a force promoting diversity within the global system, driving the creation of true social justice. However, this concept is not universally accepted; some people reject it, viewing it as obscuring the essence of religion. This research aims to describe the values of multicultural education embedded in the Clean Village tradition in Sumberdem Village, examining them from the perspective of Islamic teachings. The research employs a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach. Data collection involved in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation, followed by interpretive phenomenological analysis. The findings reveal that the multicultural values expressed in the Clean Village tradition include social care, consensus, mutual cooperation, respect for diversity, and fairness. These values align harmoniously with Islamic teachings, offering solutions to humanitarian challenges by weaving diversity into a cohesive social fabric. This process shapes a well-rounded individual who balances their roles as abdullah (God’s servant) and khalifatullah (God’s steward). This tradition can serve as a model for integrating multicultural values into community practices, especially in diverse cultural and religious settings, fostering inclusive environments that promote mutual respect and collective well-being, in alignment with both secular and religious frameworks for social harmony. Multikulturalisme muncul sebagai kekuatan yang mendorong keragaman dalam sistem global, yang menggerakkan terciptanya keadilan sosial sejati. Namun, konsep ini tidak sepenuhnya diterima secara universal; beberapa orang menolaknya karena dianggap mengaburkan esensi agama. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menggambarkan nilai-nilai pendidikan multikultural yang terkandung dalam tradisi Bersih Desa di desa Sumberdem, kemudian mengkajinya dari perspektif ajaran Islam. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan fenomenologis. Pengumpulan data melibatkan wawancara mendalam, observasi, dan teknik dokumentasi, yang diikuti dengan analisis fenomenologis interpretatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa nilai-nilai multikultural dalam tradisi Bersih Desa meliputi kepedulian sosial, musyawarah, gotong royong, penghormatan terhadap keragaman, dan keadilan. Nilai-nilai ini selaras dan harmonis dengan ajaran Islam, yang menawarkan solusi atas tantangan kemanusiaan dengan merajut keragaman menjadi ikatan sosial yang utuh. Proses ini membentuk manusia yang seimbang dalam peran sebagai abdullah (hamba Allah) dan khalifatullah (wakil Allah). Tradisi ini dapat menjadi model untuk mengintegrasikan nilai-nilai multikultural dalam praktik komunitas, terutama di lingkungan dengan latar belakang budaya dan agama yang beragam, serta memupuk lingkungan inklusif yang mendukung saling menghormati dan kesejahteraan bersama, selaras dengan kerangka sekuler dan religius untuk harmoni sosial.

Encouragement of Islam through the rearing of Muslim female children in Pakistan is impossible without fabulous exploration of Islamic rights and cultural obstacles. Islam, as a branch of knowledge based on the Qur'an and hadith, encourages the moral, social, security, economic rights of women. These rights, the first of their kind when they were released, the 7th century, the equal right and dignity of all humans before God were the focus of the women's revolution. According to the Quran, women and men are spiritually equal their success in the attainment of piety and righteousness. These rights find substantial space in different Muslim societies because of various cultural norms and traditional interpretations of Sharia. Women in Pakistan suffer from the patriarchal system deeply ingrained in societal norms that restricts their freedom and opportunities. Right from family dynamics and socialization to marriage and reproductive rights, the women face the very discrimination of the system. Violence against women, including honor killings, is still a widespread practice, justified by cultural norms rather than Islamic principles. Women's problems are of course one of the results of socio-economic problems. Even though the laws are in place, there is a lack of enforcement of those laws. A set of actions and operations are necessary to be implemented to find the best solution, which consists of legal changes, policy interference, and culture change. By way of teaching true Islam perspectives, women's rights lecturer, and upbringing to end harmful cultural practices, Pakistan will have enough potential for its female half, which is in its turn the key to the success of the whole country. A relationship between Islamic rights and cultural practices, told in the form of a comparison, can be examined in the areas of acceptability and separation. While Islamic religion and local customs put their stress on family relationships and community development, but they are diverse when it comes to women's rights, their legal and social status, and the gender role of men. The teachings of Islam in turn convey the messages of justice and equality, whereas cultural norms often create the situation by which women are forced in the position of a "gender hack" and not having freedom.

Since the destruction of nature and the natural environment is one of the greatest challenges of the world today, this article endeavors to review this important issue from an Islamic perspective. A review of Qur'anic verses and Islamic narrations regarding the environment and natural resources suggests that in one view these teachings have been divided into the following two parts: how to utilize and how to preserve these two Divine blessings. We have investigated this topic utilizing a qualitative research method in form of content analysis. The law of abstaining from incurring loss and causing harm to oneself and to others is among the laws that direct us in regards to the management and engineering of exploitation and preservation of the environment. Another part that has been discussed in this article is attention to Divine wisdom in the formation of nature and the environment. In the Holy Qur'an, the environment and natural resources have been described and distinguished in a specific way. Some of the attributes that the Qur'an recounts for the environment and natural resources are the following: being the wealth and possession of God; being a Divine trust; having a serious responsibility in respect to divine possessions and trusts; being a factor of beauty and adornment; eye-catching and being a blessing of Allah. Another aspect of the Qur'anic depiction of the environment includes the sanctity of nature, its worshipfulness, its instructiveness and the necessity of contemplation regarding the subtleties of nature and the environment. Yet another part of Islamic teachings regarding the development and preservation of the environment is its harmony, the two-way connection between the well-being of human beings and the environment, the relation between pursuing extreme comfort and luxury and ruining nature, and human motivation in the destruction of nature and the environment. In the ethical aspect regarding this issue, Islam invites towards the development of nature and environment and encourages conformity and convergence in enjoying nature. Another part and the last aspect of Islamic teachings discussed in this paper is the necessity of a replacement-creation plan when destroying the environment, encouragement in planting fruit-bearing trees instead of trees that simply provide an aspect of beauty and greenery, doing a good job in planting trees and greater correlation between attaining greater benefit and efforts to preserve and develop nature. The final part of this paper is a report of a new and Islamic idea regarding a spiritual natural environment and the factors that can make this environment lasting and enduring.

This article2 explores the sexuality of South African Muslim Indian wives in monogamous marriages, analyzing the effect of religious teachings and cultural norms on sexual experiences using hermeneutic phenomenology. The abrupt shift from religious norms that promote chastity to the expectation of sexual activity upon marriage, together with variations in desire and sexual preferences remain relatively underexplored within Muslim marriages. Under analysis is the dynamic between intimacy, desire, and shame. Drawing on empirical research, results highlight emotional and psychological challenges faced by Muslim women during marital sexual initiation due to their interpretations of religious teachings and limited sex education. Muslim wives experience that their sexual desire discrepancies negatively impact their mental health and self-esteem. There is the invocation of gendered sexual conceptions perpetuated by cultural conditioning which is also negotiated and subverted. Despite challenges, a transformative potential in marital relationships is indicated through agentival capacity, understanding, communication, and mutual sexual satisfaction.

This study employed qualitative research methods, including content analysis, to assess the effectiveness and reach of Dawah efforts through social media, shedding light on the significant role of these platforms in contemporary religious communication.

Transgender and intersex people are two different groups. This article provides an overview of transgender and intersex, emphasizing the importance of recognizing them as distinct groups and dispelling common misconceptions associated with their existence. Transgender individuals identify with a gender that does not align with their assigned sex at birth. Their experiences involve a deep sense of incongruence between their gender identity and their assigned sex. Intersex variations encompass a diverse range of conditions in which individuals possess atypical reproductive anatomy, and this is something that occurs by birth, whereas transgenderism has no biological basis. Understanding homosexuality as an intrinsic aspect of an individual's identity and not a disorder or a choice, its impacts on society, and several psychological and health issues associated with such a sex orientation This study also highlights the gender-affirming surgical procedures used by trans people to transition into their desired gender that can lead to serious complications. Transitioning into the opposite gender is forbidden in Islam and many other religions, and the majority of countries do not accept it. Thus, such communities have to face stigma and discrimination by society, but it is actually intersex people who are born this way, and they don't deserve to be ill treated. But because of the transgender community, the intersex community is also deprived of their rights. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Creativity is an essential component of ijtihad, since it calls for the capacity to think critically and develop fresh approaches to current problems, while adhering to Islamic teachings. At the same time, it is crucial to remember that creativity is a core component of both art and science. While scientists employ creativity to create new theories, experiments, and technologies, creativity also enables artists to express themselves in original and creative ways. Islamic psychology contends that religiosity can affect creativity, and Islamic teachings place a high value on hard efforts and innovations in all its manifestations. By using descriptive and analytical methodology, it is concluded that creativity is a divine trait that can be positively utilized for the betterment of society. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Road users in Pakistan are subjected to a variety of pollution kinds, including dust, smoke, loud horns, and unrepaired noisy automobiles. This article examines the reasons for these pollutions, the laws and regulations in place to address them, and useful coping strategies for lessening their effects on people and communities. The article starts off by looking at the factors that contribute to these pollutions, such as the widespread use of loud horns and high-powered lighting as well as poor maintenance of vehicles. Additionally, there is a lot of dust and smoke pollution because of bad urban planning, traffic congestion, and industrial activity. Second, the article addresses the legislation and laws that are now in practice to handle these pollutions, such as the legislation known as the Environmental Protection Act and the Motor Vehicle Ordinance. Travelers on the roads continue to be exposed to pollutants as a result of inadequate enforcement of these limitations. Similarly Islamic teachings emphasize the importance of preserving the environment and avoiding behaviors that harm others. Thus, in addition to laws and regulations, individuals have a moral obligation to take steps to reduce pollution. The article concludes by offering useful coping strategies for travelers who want to reduce their exposure to these pollutants, like using noise-cancelling headphones and anti-glare eyewear, as well as avoiding traveling during times of heavy traffic. In conclusion, the article identifies the critical problem of pollution that Pakistani road users face and offers workable measures to lessen its effects. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Regulation of the Minister of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology Number 30 of 2021 concerning the prevention of sexual violence in Higher Education arises because there are many cases of sexual harassment that occur in the Higher Education environment and there is no specific law to handle it. On the other hand, the majority of the population of Indonesia is Muslim, with the main teachings being the Koran and Hadith which also prohibit adultery and sexual violence. On this basis, this study aims to analyze Permendikbudristek Number 30 of 2021 in terms of the perspective of Islam. The method used in this study is a qualitative method with analytical techniques using content analysis. The primary source of research data refers to Permendikbudristek Number 30 of 2021 while secondary data is obtained through scientific journals, books, national news, and phenomena circulating in the community. The results of this study indicate that Permendikbudristek Number 30 of 2021 is not in accordance with Islamic teachings so that a review is needed so that Permendikbudristek is in line with and does not conflict with Islamic teachings contained in the Koran and Hadith.

The Holy Qur’an relates believers’ pure emotions to brotherhood. From the perspective of Islam, it has been also affirmed that two people have the same thoughts and opinions in one centre point of love in brotherhood, so fraternal feelings are not merely limited to kinship and consanguinity. In this line, the Holy Qur’an states that we have come to make you brothers with each other; not a brotherhood from parents, but an Islamic one, which is highly appreciated in the Islamic society. In addition, a believing brother can never be filled when his fellow believer is hungry, and he cannot be clothed while the other is with nothing on. Islam further considers all Muslims as one family and calls everyone brothers and sisters or siblings. The true Muslims of any race and tribe as well as any language and age thus have a deep sense of brotherhood with each other, even if one lives in the Eastern parts of the world and the other in the West. In sum, this article aimed to investigate the role of religious teachings in strengthening believers’ brotherhood in the Islamic society. For this purpose, firstly, the definition of religious brotherhood was provided; secondly, religious brotherhood has been described based on the Holy Qur’an. Contribution: This article helped gain a new insight into the role of Islamic teachings in strengthening religious brotherhood in the Islamic society. Besides, the indicators of religious brotherhood were extracted and then enlightened according to the Ayat (viz. verses) from the Holy Qur’an.

Freedom of expression is one of the issues of concern to human societies in the contemporary world, because this issue is one of the most important basic rights of people in societies due to its special nature, and on the other hand, it is always in conflict with the authoritarian point of view. Islam accepts freedom of expression for everyone in the Islamic society, but it has specified limits and regulations for it. These restrictions and conditions, more than cumbersome and intolerable regulations, are instructions for better use of freedom, which if not followed, not only the freedom of everyone in the society will not be realized, but also the category it will become anti-value and create cultural chaos. Imam Ali (peace be upon him), during his rule period, not only did not limit the freedom of expression, but also emphasized the expansion of this freedom. Based on Islam, since man is a free being, the privacy of his freedom must always be preserved; Therefore, freedom is the natural right of every human being and cannot be taken away from him. The practical life of Imam Ali (PBUH) and his advice to his agents in caring for freedom of expression in society and politics, bring its importance to the fore. Considering the importance of this issue, the purpose of this research is to study freedom of expression in Islamic teachings with emphasis on Nahj al-Balagha. Based on this, the related themes to freedom of expression have been extracted and explained from the point of view of Nahj al-Balagha, and conclusions have been presented in this regard. Contribution: This research showed that in the Islamic system, all citizens have the right to freedom of speech in ideological, political and social issues (according to the limits set by Islamic teachings and prevent the violation of Islamic values and other human values). These points are emphasized in Islamic teachings, especially in Nahj al-Balagha.

As per the teachings of Islam, social trust involves placing others as the pillars of the Islamic countries, which needs to be maintained. Therefore, any promise or action that undermines the social trust of the people as a social capital is one of the most important anti-social factors that must be dealt with. In view of that, Islam is struggling against hypocrisy as an antisocial trend, because it damages social trust when a hypocrite preaches one thing and does another; in other words, the deeds do not confirm the words. That is why citizens cannot believe and trust in their promises, because such individuals do not fulfil them at any time. In this context, officials are suggested to respect the principle of transparency in the governance of Islamic societies in order to improve citizens' social trust. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the role of transparent governance based on the teachings of Nahj al-Balagha in creating social trust among 428 Iranian Muslim citizens in 2022. In sum, the results indicated that transparent governance has a significant positive effect on citizens' social trust in the officials of Islamic societies, as calculated by structural equation modelling in Linear Structural Relations (LISREL) (path coefficient = 0.58; t-value = 5.54). Contribution: This study provided a new insight into the role of transparent governance in creating and strengthening social trust among the officials and citizens of Islamic societies, which deserves further attention by governments and researchers.

Government is a rational necessity for mankind because a society without government leads to chaos. Government regulates the affairs of the individual and the community, implements the limits, and ensures the dignity and independence of the human society. Thinking in the main goals of the divine prophets, it is clear that achieving great goals such as liberating people from the domination and captivity of foreigners, comprehensive human education, reviving human values, establishing justice, bringing people to excellence and growth, etc., requires formation. In this context, transparency is a key attribute, which can bring much power to the expected level as an effective mechanism for protecting citizens' political, economic, social and cultural rights. This concept is thus a valuable solution in the fight against sinister phenomena, such as political and economic corruptions, which are ranked as the biggest challenges facing any society. Even though transparency is nowadays deemed an emerging concept, its roots can be traced back to Islamic teachings, mainly during the short reign of Imam Ali, (peace be upon him [PBUH]). As a central figure, Imam Ali considered transparency as essential, and shared his views on governance and practical methods with the people and all audiences based on complete honesty and openness. As per Alavi thoughts, some criteria and indicators, both structural and behavioural, are involved in order to ensure the public good and meet the interests of all by providing the prerequisites for the realisation of transparency, at odds with the predominant ideas that transparency in governance, like many concepts in the political and governance-related spheres, has a western origin. Contribution: The concept of transparency, with a proven history in global experiences, accordingly holds a special place in the literature of Islamic governments. Given the importance of this topic, the present study with an emphasis on transparency aims to examine Islamic teachings on governance in Islamic societies, and reflect on governance transparency components in such societies, relying on expert opinions.

Eradication of poverty is one of the world's most important challenges because poverty has gripped a large part of the world. Poverty exists all over the world with its different intensity. This article will discuss the eradication of poverty in the Islamic context. Islam is a Universal and impartial religion. Which covers every sphere of a human's life? From this perspective, Islam gives us the whole structure of social life. After migrating to Madinah, the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم established the Islamic state and also founded the Islamic Bait-ul-Mal. Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم taught Muslims to help the underprivileged and dependent people through brotherhood and hence established an exemplary socio-economic system. The main purpose of Bait-ul-Mal is to spend for the welfare of the people of the Islamic government. Therefore, it is considered the bank and national treasure of the Muslim people. In this way, this institution is considered the guarantor of the property, the protector of the trust, and the official treasury of the central institutions of the Muslims. Therefore, this institution plays an important role in anti-poverty in the light of Islamic teachings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Khula in exchange for property is a form of redemption, for which women must accept. Khula cannot occur without her acceptance, and its words are fixed, and other words cannot be said. There is nothing wrong with divorcing if there is a difference of opinion between husband and wife, and there is a worry that they will not be able to follow Shariah rules. The divorce becomes obligatory, and it is obligatory to follow it and give the rest of the property to the woman. It depends on the acceptance of the woman that if the woman accepts giving the property, then divorce will be mandatory. Therefore, if the husband utters the words of divorce and the woman has not yet accepted them, then the husband does not have the right to appeal, nor does the husband have any condition. The change in the husband's assembly invalidated the khilafah. The husband said that I have divorced you and did not mention the property, so it is not divorced but Talaq-eBayin, and there is no restriction on the acceptance of the woman. The aim of this research paper is to explain the increasing trend of Khula (Redemption) in modern times and Its solution in the light of Shariah. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Allah Almighty has revealed a complete code of life in the form of Islam for the guidance of humanity. The religion of Islam gives different rules and principles for living a better life in individual and collective contexts and normal situations as well as in emergencies. In Islam, the family is an important institution that is the foundation and root of society. Society is built on this foundation and principle. The family system of Islam is a wonderful system with many characteristics which are unique and more inclusive than the family systems of other religions. In contemporary times, the Corona epidemic (Code 19) has not only affected various systems, departments, and institutions in the world, rather it has also affected the Islamic family system in multiple ways, both positive and negative. Maintaining social distance became of considerable importance in preventing this epidemic, which led to a ban on all social, economic, recreational, political, and religious activities, forcing family members to spend most of their time at home. On one hand, it has appeared as an opportunity to have positive effects such as mutual love and affection, mutual consultation for problem-solving, and closeness in relationships. On the other hand, being confined to one's home or room has led to problems such as detachment from other family members, ignorance of their situation, and lack of communication. Adopting an analytical method of research, this article examines the effects of the Corona epidemic on the Islamic family system with the same positive and negative references.

The human being is the most wonderful creation of God and the highest sign of his infinite power. Humanity is capable of achieving all divine perfections. God created them to reach the position of God’s closeness and God’s successor on Earth, and this path will not be realised except by the correct education. A human is a divine being who has settled in this earthly world, and correct education is the only way to achieve that sacred truth. Divine prophets have come to prepare the Earth for this great transformation in human existence and guide them to the light of divine teachings. There is no doubt that if human beings are not educated according to divine standards, they will remain at the level of animality. The Holy Qur’an, as the most precious Islamic divine book, presents the best way of education based on the knowledge of the truth of humanity and their needs. In addition, it is appropriate to discuss the role of behavioural gentleness in the education of people, and in this regard, the Qur’anic verses have been reviewed carefully. Therefore, the aim of this manuscript is to study the Islamic teachings in education with an emphasis on behavioural gentleness. Contribution: If curriculum planners and educators in general pay attention to Qur’anic teachings in education and base their curriculum and educational programs on Qur’anic teachings and according to characteristics and abilities and appropriateness of methods, and if the contents are paid attention to and educational programs are produced based on the will and authority of the educators, we will definitely witness progress and development in educational systems on the one hand and development and progress in all levels of life.

The Veil (Hijab) refers to a barrier which lingers in between two aspects "chastity" and "immodesty". The Veil is not only considered as a piece draping which helps men and women to cover their intimate parts from na-mahram. But it is the actuality of life in the shape of rules and regulations. Which will assist us to rescue humankind from sexual immorality, desecration of honor, exploitation of women in the name of so called freedom, sexual abuse and blasphemy of our sacred relationships. The Veil is a condition of spiritual excellence. In this indecorous society there will be no room in the souls of men either women for mystical and spiritual experiences. If we really want each one of us to master mystical and spiritual perfection. Than we must shield ourselves against these contaminations. A false rumor has been prevalent that hijab is a product of Islam and a punishment for women. While for all seraphic and non-seraphic religions it is emphasized that veiling is obligatory on a woman especially while worshiping. In the paintings of temples and churches all over the world and in practice women scholars of every single religion wore proper hijabs. In Christianity the dress of priest and nun is an obvious example of full hijab. This witnesses that according to most of the religions the spiritual quality of a woman requires her hijab and body modesty. In the form of hijab a woman from any religion not only regarded as virtuous and pure but also seems dignified and charismatic because hijab is for women not for any religion or creed.
