Abdul Haris Rasyidi, Ulyan Nasri

Abstract

This research explores the critical role of Sasak Muslim Women Scholars in empowering and strengthening Islamic education in the community of Lombok. The primary focus of this study is to identify the impact of the empowerment of female scholars on the local community through the Islamic education approach. Utilizing qualitative research methods, in-depth interviews with female scholars and field observations were conducted to understand their role in empowering the community. The results indicate that female scholars serve as spiritual leaders and act as agents of social change through efforts to empower and strengthen Islamic education. The Islamic education provided by female scholars encompasses not only religious aspects but also addresses social, economic, and cultural issues. The impact is evident in the increased well-being of the community, the formation of Islamic character, and contributions to local economic development. This research has significant implications for the development of education policies and the empowerment of women in the region. By detailing the contributions of female scholars to enhancing Islamic education and empowering the community, this study provides a deeper understanding of the potential role of female scholars in the positive transformation of the local community.
