The research used a qualitative approach with the design of a case study involving 30 madrasah aliyah students. Data is collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observations, and analysis of project documents. Research results show that project-based learning encourages student active involvement, improves learning motivation, and develops critical thinking skills. Students showed improvements in analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills. In addition, this approach also develops social skills such as cooperation and intercultural competence. This finding supports a constructivist theory that emphasizes the importance of active and contextual learning. Research recommendations include training for teachers in project-based learning methods and development of more varied projects to enrich student learning experiences. Overall, project-based Arabic learning has proven to provide broad benefits in the context of education in the era of globalization.</p> Abdillah Yachya Copyright (c) 2025 Abdillah Yachya https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2024-12-31 2024-12-31 5 2 1 7 10.24239/albariq.v5i2.76 https://albariq.org/index.php/albariq/article/view/80 <p>This study explored two prominent methodologies in the study of religion and Islam: the doctrinal and philosophical approaches. The doctrinal approach emphasized the sacred and immutable nature of Islamic teachings, viewing them as divine doctrines. While this method was vital for internal understanding among adherents, it required complementary perspectives to address contemporary challenges. Conversely, the philosophical approach applied systematic, rational, and universal thinking to uncover the deeper meanings and values within Islamic teachings. By integrating these approaches, the study demonstrated how Islamic studies could balance normative and empirical insights to adapt to modern societal needs. This interdisciplinary exploration highlighted the significance of contextualizing Islamic principles to promote interfaith harmony and foster intellectual engagement.</p> Fitri Ariati Zulfikri Retoliah Retoliah Copyright (c) 2025 Fitri Ariati, Zulfikri, Retoliah Retoliah https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2024-12-31 2024-12-31 5 2 8 22 10.24239/albariq.v5i2.80
