REKONSTRUKSI VISI “BERKAH” DALAM BINGKAI PEMIKIRAN PENDIDIKAN ISLAM: STUDI ANALISIS FILOSOFIS TERHADAP KUALITAS DAN PRESTASI DI MA MIFTAHUL ULUM PANDANWANGI

Abstract

Abstract

This research aims to reconstruct the vision of “BERKAH” (Berakhlakul Karimah, Competitive, Religious, and Humanist) within the framework of Islamic educational thought and analyze its implications for student quality and achievement at MA Miftahul Ulum Pandanwangi. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, data were gathered through in-depth interviews, participant observation in GEFA and extracurricular activities, and documentation of student grades, then analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model. The results reveal that: (1) the “BERKAH” vision serves as an ontological foundation providing a sacred purpose (maqasid) to education, shifting the focus from instrumental to essential goals; (2) the internalization of religious and moral values occurs through ta’dib in the GEFA program, creating a culture of exemplary leadership (uswah hasanah); (3) the synthesis of competitive and humanist values reflects healthy competition (al-mubahatsah) and rahmah, evidenced by academic and non-academic achievements (e.g., 2nd Place in the Physics KSM, National MTQ Champion) without sacrificing social empathy; and (4) report card documentation shows a significant cognitive increase, with "Excellent" ratings rising from 8 to 62 students. The novelty of this study lies in the “BERKAH” model which integrates transcendental Islamic values with modern competencies, bridging the gap between pesantren and madrasah education. This study concludes that character and religiosity are the primary drivers of educational quality within the rahmatan lil 'alamin framework.
