This study aims to conduct an in-depth analysis of the empowerment of adolescents at the Nurul Iman Mosque in the development of the mosque’s socio-religious functions in Pelawi Hamlet, Langkat Regency. In this study, a qualitative approach was used in conjunction with field research. Youth leaders, mentors, mosque administrators, religious leaders, and community leaders were interviewed and documented to collect data. Using the interactive model developed by Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña, data analysis was conducted through the stages of condensation, presentation, and drawing conclusions. Additionally, data validity was tested through triangulation of techniques and sources. The study shows that participatory program planning, coordination and collaboration with various stakeholders, and strengthening organizational governance that supports sustainable socio-religious activities enable the empowerment of mosque youth. These empowerment methods exemplify modern da’wah that focuses not only on the oral dissemination of Islamic teachings (bi al-lisān) but is also manifested in action (bi al-hāl) through leadership development, social service, strengthening solidarity, and organizational capacity building. According to this study, the empowerment of mosque youth is a form of transformative da’wah that strengthens the role of the mosque as a center for worship, education, social service, and community empowerment.

Penguatan Fungsi PTKI sebagai Kontrol Sosial dalam Menghadapi Kekosongan Hukum Sensor Konten Negatif pada Platform Digital
The development of digital platforms and Over-the-Top (OTT) services presents new challenges in the form of the increasing spread of negative content, which has not yet been fully addressed by censorship regulations in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze the strategic role of Islamic Religious Universities (PTKI) as institutions of social control in filling the legal void regarding the censorship of negative content on digital platforms. The study employs a constructivist paradigm with a qualitative field approach through interviews, observations, and documentation, followed by analysis using the Miles, Huberman, and Saldana interactive model. The results indicate that government oversight mechanisms via negative content detection systems (AIS) remain limited, necessitating the strengthening of education-based social control. PTKI fulfills this function through digital literacy, community service, the internalization of Islamic communication ethics, and the implementation of the value of tabayyun in the curriculum of the Islamic Communication and Broadcasting Program. The value of tabayyun serves as a preventive mechanism that strengthens critical digital literacy and fosters moral awareness in verifying and disseminating information responsibly. Despite facing challenges such as limited authority, regulatory complexity, and rapid technological advancements, PTKI has the potential to become a strategic actor in building a healthy, ethical, and public-interest-oriented digital media ecosystem.

Implementation of Community Organization Models in the Volunteer Care for the Ummah Movement Community in Medan City
This study aims to analyze the implementation of the community organizing model and the stages of community organizing applied by the GARPU Community (Gerakan Relawan Peduli Umat) in Medan City. The study employed a qualitative approach using a case study design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation involving the community leader, secretary/core volunteer, and community beneficiaries selected through purposive sampling. Data were analyzed using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña, which includes data collection, data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. Data validity was ensured through source and technique triangulation. The findings reveal that GARPU implements a community organizing model that integrates the approaches of Locality Development, Social Planning, and Social Action. The implementation of these models is reflected in community involvement during needs identification, structured program planning, and the execution of activities targeting vulnerable groups. Furthermore, the stages of community organizing—problem identification, planning, implementation, and evaluation—have been carried out systematically and continuously. The successful implementation of both the model and the organizing stages is supported by effective communication, a clear organizational coordination structure, active community participation, and strong volunteerism as the community’s social capital.

Marketing Communication Strategy on Instagram Reels @WARUNGPOTE
The rise of short-form video has transformed digital marketing communication strategies, particularly among food-related SMEs that use social media to build audience engagement and drive purchasing decisions. Instagram Reels has become one of the most widely used features because it is supported by an algorithm capable of expanding organic reach and increasing user engagement. This study aims to analyze the marketing communication strategies of the Instagram account @warungpote through Instagram Reels in building audience engagement. The study employs a qualitative approach using the case study method and a constructivist paradigm. Data were collected through non-participant observation of 16 Reels posts, in-depth interviews with five informants selected using purposive sampling, and a document analysis. Data analysis was conducted using the Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña interactive model, while data validity was tested through source triangulation, methodological triangulation, member checking, and peer debriefing. The research results indicate that storytelling, emotional branding, and FOMO play a crucial role in maintaining audience retention and driving audience interaction. Audience interaction is formed through the integration of visual elements, narrative, and social validation that align with the characteristics of the Instagram Reels algorithm. These findings expand the application of the AIDA model from a linear approach to an interactive, emotional, and algorithm-based digital marketing communication framework. The research results are expected to enrich studies on short-form video-based digital marketing communication and serve as a reference for SME practitioners in designing content strategies oriented toward the audience experience

Kepemimpinan Profetik dan Transformasi Organisasi Dakwah Kontemporer: Integrasi Nilai Kenabian dalam Manajemen Perubahan Lembaga di Era Digital
This study comprehensively examines the prophetic leadership model as the foundation for transforming contemporary da'wah organizations amid the dynamics of the digital era and Society 5.0. Using a qualitative approach based on a systematic literature review (SLR), this article analyzes the integration of prophetic values siddiq, amanah, tabligh, and fathonah as strategic instruments in promoting adaptive, innovative, and sustainable institutional change in da'wah organizations. The study finds that prophetic leadership is not merely normative-spiritual in dimension, but also functions as a catalyst for structural transformation capable of addressing the challenges of modernity without sacrificing Islamic values. The results show that da'wah organizations that systematically integrate the prophetic leadership model are able to build an innovative organizational culture, improve the effectiveness of digital da'wah, and strengthen internal cohesion amid social change pressures. This article formulates a Prophetic Leadership Adaptation Model (Model Kepemimpinan Profetik Adaptif/MKPA) that includes digital literacy, cross-sector collaboration, and the strengthening of maqashid sharia as the orientation of transformation. This model is expected to serve as a practical framework for da'wah organization leaders in navigating contemporary complexities.

Strategi Komunikasi dalam Implementasi Moderasi Beragama Di UIN Prof. K.H Saifuddin Zuhri Purwokerto
The dynamics of globalization necessitate that State Islamic Higher Education Institutions (PTKIN) transform from traditional management toward agile governance. This research aims to analyze the implementation strategy of religious moderation-based management at UIN Prof. K.H. Saifuddin Zuhri Purwokerto in response to its status as a Public Service Agency (BLU). Utilizing a qualitative descriptive case study approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation, with analysis conducted using the interactive model. Research findings indicate that the institution has implemented strategic autonomy through a bottom-up planning pattern, wherein faculties are granted broad authority in budget management and independent curriculum development. This success is supported by the synergy of shared leadership and a digital accountability culture through real-time monitoring systems. Implicitly, autonomy enhances academic productivity and institutional distinction, although it remains hindered by variations in human resource managerial capacity and the rigidity of central regulations. It is concluded that this strategy is effective in creating an adaptive educational ecosystem. It is recommended that relevant institutions perform more flexible regulatory harmonization and intensify managerial capacity-building programs for administrative staff to optimize the flexibility of campus autonomy.

Relevansi Metode Dakwah Interaktif terhadap Peningkatan Minat Kajian Keagamaan di Komunitas Pedesaan
A significant decline in congregational participation in religious studies, especially in rural areas, due to boredom with rigid and irrelevant monologue-style preaching, is the main background for this study. This research aims to analyze the effectiveness of applying interactive preaching methods as the main strategy to increase the interest and participation of congregations in rural areas, focusing on meeting the needs of the mad’u (preaching audience). Using a qualitative approach with a case study type and the Uses and Gratifications (U&G) Theory framework, this research was conducted through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation at the Baitul Izzati Mosque, Dukuh Krikil, Gembong Village. Informants included preachers and congregants of various ages. The results show that interactive preaching, which is dominated by question and answer sessions and dialogue (70 minutes) after a short lecture, has succeeded in increasing congregation attendance from 3-5 people to 25-30 people. This increase in interest was supported by several key factors: the credibility of the preacher (Ustaz M. Syafiul Anam) with clear scholarly credentials, the relevance of the material that addressed everyday problems (in accordance with Cognitive Gratification), the effective timing after the Fajr prayer, and the familiar communication strategy (using local language and humor) that fulfilled Affective and Personal Gratification. These findings confirm that interactive da'wah is not only effective but also urgent in building inclusive, applicable, and participatory religious awareness, although the management of study duration needs to be evaluated.

Massage of Da’wah and The Existence of Lengger Dance Culture in Wonosobo
The Lengger dance is a traditional performing art originating from Wonosobo, Central Java. Historically, this dance was performed by a male dancer using a mask, but over time it shifted to being performed by two female dancers with distinctive costumes and makeup. This research examines the da'wah messages and cultural existence embedded in the Lengger dance, aiming to identify the religious values communicated through the performance and to understand how the dance has maintained its continuity from the past to the present. Using a qualitative approach with field study methods, the study reveals that the Lengger dance is historically linked to Sunan Kalijaga, who used the mask as a medium to convey Islamic moral teachings while concealing his identity. The dance contains messages encouraging humans to remember God in all life situations. Through the lens of Islamic communication, particularly cultural da'wah, the Lengger dance functions as a non-verbal medium that integrates symbolic movements, narrative sequences, and communal rituals. Although currently showcased in celebrations, thanksgiving events, village traditions, welcoming ceremonies, and rituals during the month of Suro, the Lengger dance continues to preserve ethical and spiritual values. The findings illustrate how traditional arts can sustain religious communication and remain relevant across generations.

Problematika Dakwah Digital menurut Ustaz Salim A. Fillah: Antara Etika, Media, dan Spiritualitas
The rapid growth of social media has reshaped the orientation of Islamic preaching and generated academic concerns regarding the preservation of ethics, spirituality, and substantive depth in digital da'wah. This study aims to examine the challenges of digital da'wah as articulated by Ustaz Salim A. Fillah, with a focus on the values of adab, media utilization strategies, and the spiritual approaches he employs. Using a descriptive qualitative method, the research draws on a three-week media observation that includes a systematic review of sermons, Q&A programs, and various da'wah content on YouTube, complemented by a literature study on digital da'wah discourse. Data were analyzed descriptively and analytically through coding, thematic categorization, and message interpretation based on communication theory. The findings indicate that Ustaz Salim adopts a reflective and historically grounded model of da'wah that emphasizes ethical conduct, spiritual depth, and audience empowerment. This approach serves as an alternative to contemporary digital da'wah trends that tend to be instant and lack spiritual substance. Theoretically, the study expands the understanding of ethical, contextual, and community-oriented digital da'wah. The main limitation lies in the absence of direct interaction with the da'i, highlighting the need for future studies employing triangulation. The study recommends that young preachers balance media appeal with substantive religious messaging.

Digital Da'wah: Analysis of Da'i Behavior and Social Interaction on Instagram
In the digital era, the diversity of audience needs and the influence of platform algorithms pose significant challenges for digital da'wah practices. These conditions require da'i (Islamic preachers) to adapt to technological developments and shifting audience preferences in order to enhance the effectiveness of religious communication. This study aims to examine the dynamics of da'wah in the digital era through the Instagram platform, with a focus on communication strategies, audience interaction, and emerging challenges. Using a qualitative descriptive approach through a literature study, this research analyzes secondary data from books, scholarly journals, articles, and digital documents to systematically describe the phenomenon of digital da'wah without direct field observation. The findings indicate that many da'i demonstrate positive attitudes in conveying religious messages and maintain constructive social interactions with their audiences. Their communication strategies vary, including the use of simple and accessible language, visually engaging content, and interactive two-way communication to foster audience engagement. These strategies have proven effective in enhancing followers’ religious understanding and influencing positive behavioral changes. However, the study also identifies contextual challenges in Instagram-based da'wah, such as ethical concerns related to misinformation and hate speech driven by viral content, polarization of religious narratives that intensify interpretive divisions, and the emergence of religious consumerism through sponsored content or merchandise that may shift da'wah orientation from spiritual authenticity toward commercial interests

Strategi Dakwah Framing Berbasis Maqashid Syariah: Transformasi Nilai Rukun Islam sebagai Kebutuhan Spiritual bagi Gen Z dan Milenial
The shifting perceptions of Generation Z and millennials toward the pillars of Islam indicate a deeper crisis of religious consciousness. For many young Muslims, the pillars of Islam are no longer perceived as sacred spiritual obligations but as personal choices shaped by emotional relevance and existential needs. This study aims to formulate a da'wah strategy that reframes the pillars of Islam as spiritual necessities rather than merely legalistic imperatives. Employing a qualitative descriptive method through library research, the study draws on classical Islamic texts, academic journals, communication theories, and framing literature. Data were analyzed using content analysis, conceptual framing, and thematic interpretation grounded in maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah. The findings reveal that a framing-based da'wah strategy enables religious narratives to be reconstructed in a more empathetic and contextual manner. Each pillar of Islam can be reframed as a response to contemporary spiritual needs, including identity formation, emotional regulation, social empathy, and inner healing. This approach remains consistent with the essence of Islamic law while aligning with its core objectives: preservation of religion, life, intellect, wealth, and lineage. The study recommends that Islamic institutions, urban pesantren, and digital da'wah practitioners adopt a maqāṣid-based framing strategy to create religious narratives that resonate with the lived experiences of Generation Z and millennials, shifting da'wah from legalistic instruction toward reflective and meaningful internalization.

Fan Disagreement in Pop Culture: Menguak Penyebab Penolakan "Kelelawar" terhadap Rebranding .Feast
This study investigates the underlying causes of fan disagreement within the “Kelelawar” community toward the rebranding of the Indonesian band .Feast. Using a qualitative approach through in-depth interviews, the research analyzes how fans decode the band’s identity transformation and how their social backgrounds, activist experiences, and knowledge frameworks shape oppositional readings. The findings reveal that rejection is primarily expressed by fans with strong ideological attachments to .Feast’s earlier phase, particularly former student activists who viewed the band’s previous works as a platform for political expression that is now perceived as diminished. The rebranding is understood as a departure from the values and cultural practices that defined their engagement, including the disappearance of moshing culture and the thematic shift from political commentary to more personal and aesthetic narratives. This study contributes to fan culture scholarship by highlighting how a musician’s identity transformation can generate ideologically driven resistance within a dedicated fan community.

Peran Literasi Media dalam Menangkal Penyebaran Hoaks di Era Digital
The rapid development of information technology in the digital era has had a significant impact on people's information consumption patterns. However, the ease of access to information also opens a gap for the rampant spread of hoaxes that can mislead the public and trigger social unrest. This research aims to analyze the role of media literacy in counteracting the spread of hoaxes in the digital era. The method used is a library research with a descriptive qualitative approach that examines various literature, scientific articles, and empirical data related to media literacy and hoax phenomena. The results of the study show that media literacy has a strategic role in shaping the ability of individuals to access, understand, evaluate, and distribute information critically. Individuals who have a good level of media literacy tend to be more skeptical of unverified information, and are able to recognize the characteristics of hoax content, such as provocative titles, uncredible sources, and visual manipulation. In addition, media literacy also encourages active participation in building a healthy digital ecosystem through the dissemination of correct and educational information. Therefore, increasing media literacy through formal education, community training, and digital campaigns is an important step in facing the challenge of spreading hoaxes in the digital era. This research recommends collaboration between the government, educational institutions, mass media, and civil society in designing inclusive and sustainable media literacy programs.

Code-Switching Models Used by Millennial Muslim Preachers on Instagram in Indonesia: A Sociolinguistic Analysis from a Grammatical Perspective
Code-switching is becoming increasingly prevalent among young people as a communication strategy that reflects contemporary social and cultural dynamics. Millennial Muslim preachers in Indonesia are also utilizing code-switching to convey their messages, particularly through the Instagram platform. This study aims to identify the code-switching models used by millennial Muslim preachers from a grammatical perspective. Data was collected from the Instagram accounts @hanan_attaki, @syam_elmarusy, @husein_hadar, @adihidayatofficial, and @kohdennislim using purposive sampling. Data analysis was conducted using a grammatical approach in code-switching studies. The results of the study indicate that the types of code-switching used include inter-sentential, intra-sentential, extra-sentential, single-word, and word-internal code-switching. Each account shows different patterns of use, with some displaying only one type and others displaying a combination of several types of code-switching. These findings indicate a high degree of linguistic adaptability among preachers in tailoring religious messages to the characteristics of a young audience. In conclusion, code-switching variation serves as an effective strategy in bridging social gaps and enhancing the connectivity of religious messages in digital media.

Youth, Da'wah, and Nationalism: The Perspective of Idhatun Nasyi'in by Mushtofa Al-Ghalayain and Its Relevance to the Socio-Cultural Context of the Indonesian Nation
Youth hold a central role in the advancement of civilization, yet they are highly susceptible to external influences, including moral decline and ideological threats. One of the pressing issues is the rise of transnational movements that diminish the value of nationalism, often portraying it as incompatible with religious belief. This article explores Mushtofa Al-Ghalayain’s thoughts on youth, Islamic preaching (da’wah), and nationalism as articulated in his work Idhatun Nasyi’in. Al-Ghalayain highlights wathaniyah (nationalism) as an essential quality for youth, asserting that love and service to the homeland are integral to faith. He positions youth as the main drivers of societal transformation and upholders of national dignity. The research employs a qualitative content analysis approach to examine how the text conveys moral, religious, and nationalistic values. Findings suggest that religion and nationalism are not opposing forces but are mutually reinforcing in shaping responsible, morally grounded citizens. Da’wah, therefore, must contribute not only to spiritual growth but also to the unity and integrity of the nation. This vision is reflected in the well-known maxim: "Hubbul wathan minal iman" (Love for the homeland is part of faith), reaffirming the harmony between Islamic values and national devotion.

Disabilitas sebagai Dakwah Sunyi: Narasi Resiliensi dan Dinamika Psikososial Mahasiswa dengan Kebutuhan Khusus di Indonesia
This study aims to explore the psychosocial dynamics and adjustment processes of students with disabilities in Islamic higher education institutions, focusing on narratives of resilience and the spiritual meaning embodied in the concept of silent da’wah. Using a phenomenological approach and Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA), data were collected through in-depth interviews with four students with physical and mental disabilities in Pekalongan. The findings reveal that students with disabilities face significant structural, social, and emotional challenges, yet they demonstrate strong resilience through Islamic values such as ṣabr (patience), ikhlāṣ (sincerity), and istiqāmah (steadfastness). Their adjustment journey follows stages from anxiety, self-acknowledgment, and social participation to meaningful contributions through altruism and adaptive conformity. These findings align with prior literature on the role of spiritual guidance in reconstructing happiness and the importance of faith in fostering subjective well-being. The study recommends enhancing inclusive campus support systems and integrating psychospritual approaches into disability services in higher education settings.

Inovasi Dakwah Ala Ustadz Hanan Attaki (Studi Kasus Kajian Sharing Time “Rahasia Merubah Takdir: Jodoh, Rezeki, Sukses”)
This study analyzes the form of da’wah innovation and its impact in the Sharing Time study titled “The Secret to Changing Destiny: Soulmate, Fortune, and Success.” The research is driven by the limited number of contemporary da’wah studies that explore humanist and contextual approaches in conveying religious messages in the digital era. Using a qualitative descriptive case study and supported by literature review, data were collected through observation and documentation, including articles, journals, and books as secondary sources.

Impact of Arab Media Propaganda on Anxiety Levels in Indonesian Society: A Case Study of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict
This study examines the geopolitical dynamics in the Arab region, focusing on factors such as regional conflicts, foreign intervention, leadership changes, and control over energy resources. Conflicts like the Syrian war, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and tensions in the Persian Gulf significantly shape regional stability. Foreign intervention, whether military or political, often escalates tensions, while leadership transitions and energy resource control, particularly oil, influence regional and global policies. These developments, widely disseminated through digital media, can impact the psychological state of Indonesian society, particularly when propaganda and biased narratives dominate media coverage. This study employs a case study approach combined with content analysis from digital media platforms and anxiety level measurements using psychological instruments such as the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), and Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A). Findings reveal that media narratives significantly influence public perception, often amplifying collective anxiety and shaping opinions on geopolitical issues. Digital platforms play a key role in intensifying these effects by merging traditional and modern media channels. The study underscores the importance of media literacy education and public awareness programs to foster critical thinking and resilience against propaganda. These findings provide valuable insights into the intersection of media narratives, public psychology, and geopolitical events, offering recommendations for mitigating their societal impact

Membendung Perbedaan Hari Raya Idul Fitri 1444 H antara BRIN dan Muhammadiyah: Tinjuan al-Qur’an sebagai Konsep Dakwah Berbasis Moderasi Beragama yang Harmoni
The Qur'an was revealed as a rahmatan lil alamin (mercy to all creations) and a guide for harmonious living. Muslims believe it to be a holy scripture revealed to Prophet Muhammad to establish peace and harmony. However, in the modern era, this ideal often contrasts with reality, as seen in the case of differing determinations of the 1444 AH Eid al-Fitr celebration, which sparked social conflict. This study aims to analyze the role of the Qur'an as an instrument of harmonization from the perspective of religious moderation. The research employs a qualitative case study approach, focusing on the conflict in Bantul, Yogyakarta. Data collection techniques include interviews, observations, and documentation, while data analysis involves reduction, presentation, and verification. The findings indicate a decline in values such as tolerance, empathy, and harmony among Muslims, driven by social jealousy and a lack of understanding of religious moderation. As a solution, this study recommends that the National Research and Innovation Agency (BRIN) support research aligned with the Ministry of Religious Affairs' policies on religious moderation and emphasizes the importance of implementing these values to shape Muslims as ummatan wasatan (a middle and just nation).

Kontruksi Berita BBC dalam Konflik Palestina-Israel: Analisis Framing Media Robert N. Entman
Since October 7, 2023, the escalation of the conflict between Palestine and Israel has now become the main focus of the virtual community, highlighting the brutality of the Israeli genocide against Palestine. On the one hand, many media that discuss the issues of the Palestine-Israel conflict include BBC News, whose news coverage is often controversial, both in terms of how they view the conflict and formulate data to become news arguments. The implications of the media framing have the potential for the virtual community to be carried away by the media's perspective. A critical study is needed using Robert Entman's framing analysis method, which is described narratively descriptively and with qualitative methods. From the results of the research that has been found, there is news about the Palestine-Israel conflict that does not match the facts on the ground. This shows that the BBC media deliberately exaggerates its point of view of support for Israel. The media is not neutral but has a "bias" from every news it displays. So, a critical study of the media is essential to show its neutrality.
