“…There have been a significant number of studies on Ma'had Aly within Islamic boarding schools in Indonesia (among others Wahid 2005, Gazali 2009, Rosidin 2012, Halim 2015, Permana 2018, Wajdi and Aulia 2019, Mubarok 2020, Rozi 2021.

“…This was especially the case before MAA formally attained status as a formal Islamic tertiary education institution in 2016. In fact, Ma'had Aly's programs at other pesantren in Indonesia, particularly in Java, also provide students with the same opportunity to attend Islamic colleges at the same time, both public and private (Rosidin 2012). As an MAA teacher explained, "Naiyyaro ma'hade'é untu' akhéra'mu, iyyatosi kuliamu ri STAI untu' linomu" (Bug.…”

The rise of new Muslim organizations in Indonesia after the reform movement in 1998 has produced a new type of religious authority, particularly through the emergence of popular preachers. Television and social media platforms are among the key factors in helping these new sources of religious authority gain instant popularity in the Muslim community. Many of those fitting this new type of preacher are relatively junior, starting their career by delivering religious speeches to diverse Islamic study groups in urban areas before appearing on television and various social media platforms. Their popularity has influenced the way the Muslim communities in Indonesia view and respect the status and role of traditional Islamic authority (ulama). For a long time, the traditional type of ulama has functioned as the most authoritative source of religious knowledge and learning for the Muslim community. This paper describes the important role of the graduates of a tertiary Islamic education program for producing junior ulama, the Ma’had ‘Aly As‘adiyah, in the field of Islamic education and da‘wa (Islamic preaching) and how it has adapted its teaching methodology to suit current developments in those fields. This research finds that while maintaining traditional da‘wa methods for local communities, some Ma‘had Aly graduates have also taken advantage of various new digital media platforms to reach more diverse and wider audiences. This research argues that Ma’had ‘Aly As‘adiyah has consistently trained and produced new ulama with high competence in various disciplines of Islamic knowledge and an ability to respond and adapt to contemporary socio-religious changes partly generated by the disruptive development of new media.

“…It functioned as a Hindu-Buddhist monastery where later religious functionaries got special pieces of training and courses on religious subjects and others that are related to religious services. Pesantren was basically a traditional Islamic education, so the elements of boarding schools were dormitories, kiyai, santri, mosques and yellow books (Rosidin, 2012;Syafe'i, 2017). The contribution of Islamic educational institutions to the Islamization process could be seen from the graduates of these institutions who…”

This study aimed to discuss the role of Islamization channels in the process of entry and spread of Islam in Malay Peninsula in seventh to eighth century AD. The research used qualitative method with a descriptive analytical approach. By taking data through interview, journals and textbooks, then conducting a description and analysis of the data, the results showed that the process of Islamization in Malay Peninsula in seventh to eighth centuries AD was carried out through several channels, namely trade, marriage, Sufi, politics, education, and arts. The study also showed that Islamic education functioned as the main channel in the process of Islamization. The role of Islamic education was mainly enhancing Muslims’ understanding about Islam which was implemented informally and non-formally. Informal education occurred through the interaction between the ulama and community carrying out everyday lives; while, nonformal education was conducted by holding learning activities in the mosque through small groups known as halaqah. The study concluded that Islamic education was the main channel of the Islamization process in Malay Peninsula.

“…1 Pesantren not only functions as a place of religious education, but also as a place to maintain and continue the Islamic tradition. 2 In the context of pesantren education, the concept of ta'zir (discretionary punishment) has a significant role in maintaining discipline and order. 3 Ta'zir refers to the punishment Islamic authorities give for offenses not explicitly regulated in religious texts.…”

This article examines the practice of Ta'zir, a form of discretionary punishment, within the context of Islamic boarding schools. Ta'zir holds a significant place in Islamic jurisprudence, allowing authorities to determine penalties for offenses not explicitly addressed in religious texts. However, the application of Ta'zir has raised concerns, particularly in the context of Islamic boarding schools, where traditional practices intersect with modern notions of human rights. Drawing upon a multi-disciplinary approach, this study delves into the historical, cultural, and religious aspects of Ta'zir, elucidating its evolution from its inception to its current manifestations within Islamic boarding schools. By analyzing primary sources, legal texts, and case studies, the article underscores the diverse interpretations of Ta'zir and its malleability in adapting to contemporary circumstances. Furthermore, the article critically evaluates the potential conflicts between the traditional practice of Ta'zir and international human rights standards. It examines instances where Ta'zir punishments might be perceived as infringing upon human dignity, bodily integrity, and freedom from cruel, inhuman, or degrading treatment. The study also explores the role of Islamic boarding schools in shaping and perpetuating these practices, considering the interplay between religious education, discipline, and the protection of children's rights. The findings of this research reveal a complex landscape where tradition clashes with modern sensibilities. The article advocates for a nuanced dialogue between religious scholars, educators, and human rights advocates to strike a balance between preserving cultural heritage and upholding universally recognized human rights. It highlights the importance of reinterpretation and contextualization of Ta'zir in line with the principles of justice, mercy, and human dignity as emphasized within Islamic teachings. In conclusion, this article contributes to the ongoing discourse on the compatibility of traditional Islamic practices with contemporary human rights frameworks. It calls for a thoughtful reevaluation of Ta'zir within Islamic boarding schools, promoting an inclusive approach that safeguards both religious heritage and fundamental human rights.
