Teacher and staff loyalty, student religious character, and improved institutional performance are some of the benefits gained from integrating spiritual values ​​with managerial effectiveness. Institutional leaders are required to transform their leadership and management practices to avoid being swayed by the negative effects of globalization and international integration. This study aims to examine in-depth the concept of integrating spiritual values ​​with managerial effectiveness in Islamic education. This research uses a library research approach, drawing on various academic sources, including articles, books, and related research. The results indicate that transforming Islamic educational leadership will create an institution that upholds humanitarian values ​​without neglecting performance. Leaders must possess the ability to focus on more than one aspect, but rather focus on two aspects: religious values ​​and institutional performance. The conclusion of this study is that Islamic spiritual values, as a foundation for leadership, create unity for the institution, with managerial activities serving as a means of integrating them.</p> 2026-10-04T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Ifrila Hidayatus Soffah, Ali Nasith https://ejournal.uiidalwa.ac.id/index.php/aijis/article/view/4945 Ibn Khaldun’s Philosophy of Culture and the Dynamics of Modern Muslim Society 2026-05-19T02:22:06+00:00 Miftakhus Sifa' Bahrul Ulumiyah miftakhus.ulumiyah@uin-suka.ac.id Moh Yusuf tazaissuf@gmail.com <p>This article examines Ibn Khaldun’s philosophy of culture and its relevance to the dynamics of modern Muslim society through a literature study. The study is motivated by contemporary socio-cultural problems, including the crisis of social solidarity, materialism, moral disintegration, and tensions between tradition and modernity. It aims to analyze Ibn Khaldun’s main concepts, particularly <em>‘ashabiyah</em>, civilization (<em>‘umran</em>), social transformation, and the cyclical patterns of societal progress and decline, and relate them to contemporary Muslim societies. This qualitative study examines Ibn Khaldun’s primary works and relevant secondary literature in Islamic philosophy, sociology, and Islamic Studies. The findings show that Ibn Khaldun’s philosophy remains relevant for understanding social fragmentation, the weakening of collective identity, consumerist culture, and leadership crises in the modern Islamic world. The concept of <em>‘ashabiyah</em> is not limited to tribal solidarity but also includes social, spiritual, and intellectual solidarity as a foundation for the revival of Islamic civilization. The study concludes that Ibn Khaldun’s thought provides a relevant philosophical framework for understanding cultural transformation and the civilizational challenges faced by Muslim societies in the modern era.</p> 2026-10-04T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Miftakhus Sifa' Bahrul Ulumiyah, Moh Yusuf
