Character education is a primary focus in the development of the educational system at Pesantren Ulil Albab Ngawi. As an Islamic educational institution, it implements the learning of the Kitab Taklim Muta'alim as a means to strengthen the character education of its santri (students). This research aims to analyze how learning the Kitab Taklim Muta'alim can contribute to reinforcing character values. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with a case study approach, where data was obtained through interviews, observation, and documentation. The research results indicate that learning the Kitab Taklim Muta'alim not only teaches religious aspects but also shapes positive attitudes and behaviors such as politeness, humility, honesty, responsibility, and discipline among the pesantren community, which form the foundation of santri character. To further strengthen character education through the Kitab Taklim Muta'alim at Pesantren Ulil Albab Ngawi, recommendations include: developing teacher training programs, integrating experience-based learning, and establishing assessment and monitoring mechanisms.

The complexity of the global economy and demands for accountability drive the need for a comprehensive study of financial management strategy typologies that align with the characteristics of Islamic educational institutions and Islamic economic principles. This research aims to identify, classify, and analyze financial management strategy typologies in Islamic educational institutions from an Islamic economic perspective. Effective financial management presents a major challenge for Islamic educational institutions facing global economic complexity and accountability demands, while most still rely on conventional models that have not fully accommodated Islamic values. Using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method with the PRISMA protocol, this research analyzed 6 selected articles from 77,522 articles identified from three major academic databases. The results revealed five typologies of financial management strategies in Islamic educational institutions: (1) pure sharia principles-based that emphasize sharia compliance, maqashid sharia, and justice; (2) audit and accountability-based that focus on legal compliance, transparency, and fraud prevention; (3) governance and professionalism-based that prioritize financial manager competence; (4) management function-based that include planning, organizing, implementation, and supervision; and (5) integration of Islamic values into the education system. Despite showing different characteristics, all typologies aim to achieve financial sustainability while maintaining sharia compliance. This research provides a conceptual framework that can serve as a reference in developing adaptive and contextual financial management models according to the characteristics of Islamic educational institutions.

The work is devoted to the substantiation of new research methods used to examine the writer's creative heritage and the concept of Dostoevsky's digital archive. The first part of the article provides examples of the use of online information technologies to create electronic archives of literary and historical texts from different eras, highlight the distinct and common features of the created archival collections, and analyze the principles of material presentation. The material for this part of the research was obtained from the most respectable foreign and Russian Internet portals, which display historical and literary collections and funds associated with various cultural traditions and personas. Each such electronic collection was created on the basis of extensive, sometimes decades-long, scientific work aimed at collecting handwritten and printed sources, restoring handwritten materials, their textual research, studying their creative and non-creative history, determining the methodology of working with them and the concept of their textual and digital reproduction, as well as extensive preparatory work on the selection of technical equipment and digitization of texts. In most cases, such digital archives are not only a place to store sources; they continue to serve research purposes and contain the results and examples of scientific research. In the second part of the article, the tasks of the Dostoevsky digital archive as a collection of texts and a scientific laboratory for the study of the writer's handwritten and printed heritage are formulated. The article substantiates the first stage of research work on the creation of a catalog of Dostoevsky's verbal and non-verbal graphics, based on the combination of modern software methods and textual analysis.

This community-based engagement study aims to strengthen the understanding and practices of religious moderation as a form of social capital supporting sustainable national development. Religious moderation is conceptualized not merely as a normative ideal, but as lived religious attitudes and practices that must be continuously internalized, particularly among Islamic boarding school students (santri) as future religious leaders. Baitul Mustaqim Islamic Boarding School was selected due to its strategic role in shaping students’ religious perspectives and social engagement. The program seeks to enhance both conceptual understanding and practical implementation of religious moderation, enabling santri to promote inclusive, tolerant, and balanced religious values within plural social contexts. An Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) approach was employed, emphasizing the identification and mobilization of existing assets, capacities, and strengths within the pesantren community. This participatory approach positions santri as active agents of change rather than passive recipients. Educational activities included Building Learning Commitment (BLC), an overview of religious life in Indonesia, the conceptual framework and indicators of religious moderation, and leadership and pioneering roles of santri. Program effectiveness was assessed using pre-test and post-test instruments. The results show a significant improvement in students’ understanding of religious moderation, increasing from 85.5% in the pre-test to 100% in the post-test. Students’ perception of moderation as a balanced religious attitude also increased from 60.0% to 89.3%. These findings demonstrate that an ABCD-based educational program effectively strengthens religious moderation in pesantren settings and offers a participatory model that can be replicated in similar community engagement initiatives.

The era of disruption, characterized by rapid technological development and shifts in socio-cultural patterns, requires Islamic educational institutions to reassess and adjust their management strategies to maintain relevance. This library research adopts a qualitative approach to analyze how Islamic education management can effectively respond to disruptive changes, with a particular focus on Kediri, a region known for its strong pesantren and madrasah traditions. The findings indicate persistent challenges, including limited digital integration, organizational resistance to change, and weak strategic leadership. Nevertheless, emerging initiatives such as digital-based learning, participatory governance, and value-driven innovation demonstrate promising adaptive potential. This study proposes a strategic repositioning framework rooted in Islamic principles such as amanah (trust), musyawarah (deliberation), and ihsan (excellence), integrated with contemporary management concepts. The model emphasizes three key dimensions: strengthening fundamental Islamic values, implementing adaptive technology-based management, and building external collaboration with educational, industrial, and digital communities. The integrative-adaptive approach positions Islamic educational institutions not only as preservers of tradition but also as dynamic agents of innovation. These findings contribute theoretically to the discourse on Islamic education management and provide practical insights for institutional leaders in pursuing sustainable transformation amidst global educational disruption

This study analyzes the role of Pondok Pesantren Al Ulya Kendal in preparing santri (students) to achieve global competitiveness while maintaining noble character in the context of 21st-century technological advancement and globalization. Employing a qualitative case study approach, data were gathered through interviews, observations, and documentation at Pondok Pesantren Al Ulya Kendal. The findings reveal a comprehensive educational strategy encompassing three key dimensions: (1) curriculum integration that blends religious and general education using interactive methods such as sorogan, bandongan, group discussions, and collaborative projects; (2) character formation through habituation and role modeling, emphasizing daily discipline, independence, regular worship, and the exemplary conduct of kyai and ustadz; and (3) the cultivation of 21st-century competencies and leadership skills via programs such as muhadharah (speech training), student organizations (OPPM), and digital literacy initiatives. While challenges such as limited technological infrastructure and resource constraints persist, the pesantren leverages strong alumni networks and community support to sustain its mission. The study concludes that Pondok Pesantren Al Ulya effectively nurtures intellectually capable, morally grounded, and globally adaptable individuals, demonstrating that Islamic educational institutions can harmonize tradition with modernity to meet contemporary global demands.

The cultural communication of santri at Pondok Pesantren Riyadhul Awamil, a pesantren that integrates classical Islamic traditions with the dynamics of modern santri life, serves as the central theme of this study. The main focus is to examine how communication patterns are formed and practiced among santri, between santri and the kiai (Islamic teacher), and within the broader pesantren environment. The study employs a qualitative approach through field observation and in-depth interviews with key informants. The findings indicate that the communication culture within this pesantren is strongly influenced by Islamic values such as adab (etiquette), tawadhu (humility), and the spirit of ukhuwah (brotherhood). The language used is not only verbal but also symbolic, expressed through daily traditions such as studying classical Islamic texts (kitab kuning), acts of service (khidmat), and group discussions (musyawarah). This cultural communication functions not only as a means of conveying religious messages but also as a tool for shaping the character and identity of the santri. The study concludes that the cultural communication of santri at Pondok Pesantren Riyadhul Awamil plays a vital role in preserving pesantren values while serving as an effective medium of Islamic propagation both within and beyond the pesantren community.

The CLiGS textbox is published by the Computational Literary Genre Stylistics (CLiGS) group. The textbox is the group’s publication channel for several collections of literary texts. We describe the rationale for the manner in which the collections of literary texts included in the textbox have been compiled, annotated, and published. Furthermore, we suggest several ways in which the text collections can be used for research in literary studies. We aim to document some of the work of the CLiGS group, to showcase the unique TEI XML-based collections of French, Spanish, Spanish-American, and Portuguese novels and French drama we make available, and to encourage reuse of these text collections by others. We argue that agreement on common formats and procedures for text preparation, encoding, and publication fosters the accessibility, analysis, and reuse potential of literary text collections.

Salaf pesantren is one of the Islamic educational institutions that has a great influence and contribution to Indonesia in encouraging the progress of science and character education. So it is appropriate to study the renewal carried out by these salaf pesantrens. The renewal carried out by these salaf pesantren is a form of answering the needs of a dynamic society. So the review conducted in this paper is to look at the innovation of Hidayatut Thullab pesantren in the review of social philosophy, so the question in this paper is how the social inetarchy relationship between the characters produced between the community or the pesantren family and the educational innovations it makes to society as a whole. The method used is a combination of literature studies and field studies, using the domain analysis method, componen analysis, taxonomy analysis, and cultural theme analysis, the purpose of this method is to find the construction of social situations clearly. The results of the analysis of this paper are, that this semi-modern salaf pesantren has been able to build its social culture clearly, because it is assisted by a curriculum, adequate Islamic material and the environment of pesantren life based on salaf culture, so that the character of social interaction is clearly illustrated as a family or pesantren community that has a strong Islamic identity, a thick cultural culture and tak'dzim to the kiaiKiyai. However, because the innovation is only limited to the digitalisation of online mass media-based da'wah communication, the impact is only in the field of da'wah, and the social environment is also still limited to the relationship network environment, not yet to a more famous national level, as we know that the world of digital communication still needs something unique so that it goes viral and is widely known and captures more people. While the pesantren's relationship with the surrounding community as a form of social interaction has not been carried out optimally, because it is still confined to the salaf pesantren system with a traditional classical paradigm, thus making the salaf pesantren movement more limited than modern pesantren, such as the lack of cooperation between pesantren as a whole as educational institutions to the government and NGOs in order to obtain integrated activities, adequate facilities, teacher support and so on.

The Concept of environmentally-friendly in the Quran, Hadith, and Kitab Kuning in Pesantren . Environmental problems in Indonesia are worrying condition indicated by forest fires, landslide calamities, and floods in various parts of Indonesia.

The type of Synodikos with a literary preface appeared at the end of the 16th century and developed and spread in the 17th century. It is believed that the study of the copies of the 18th century does not add essential information about the repertoire of collections of Synodikos. However, manuscripts can still be found that do not completely fit into the general picture of the ideas available in current science about the composition of literary collections of the late Synodikos. The article examines three handwritten front Synodikos books identified by the author, which differ significantly in the composition of literary prefaces from the general mass of those Synodikoses of the third edition common in the 18th century (I.V. Dergacheva). They are based on miniatures copied from engravings of various editions of the Synodikos by Leonty Bunin, and selected texts that match their meaning. A similar principle of compiling a moralistic collection was used in the Patriarch Adrian Synodikos (O.R. Khromov). The manuscripts in question have different origins and history of existence, but demonstrate thematic and stylistic affinity. They are also united by a curious combination in preface collections of poetic and prose texts. All this gives reason to say that in this case we are dealing with a special edition of the Synodikos — a literary collection that existed in the 18th century.
