SPs UMJ Graduates 108th Doctoral Candidate in Islamic Education Management

Lamya Hayatina has become the 108th doctoral graduate from the Graduate School of Universitas Muhammadiyah Jakarta (SPs UMJ), earning her degree in Islamic Education Management (MPI). Her doctoral defense centered on her dissertation, "Management of Tahfidz Al-Qur'an Bersanad Programs for Enhancing Al-Qur'an Memorization Quality at Situ Wadi Mubarak Bogor and Al Ittifaqiah Islamic Boarding School Indralaya." Hayatina achieved a "Pujian" (Praise) cum laude predicate with a GPA of 3.96. The research employed a qualitative approach with a multiple case study method. Data collection involved in-depth interviews with 24 informants, participant observation, and documentation analysis, processed using NVivo 15 software. Hayatina introduced the SANAD model, comprising five main components: input, the core process (Sanad Management Cycle), output, outcome, and the sanad regeneration cycle. The input stage includes sanad readiness, human resources, curriculum, and supporting resources as the program's foundation. The core process involves planning, the crucial sanad transmission, and quality assurance and evaluation to maintain the quality of memorization, recitation, and sanad validity. "The SANAD model not only produces Al-Qur'an memorizers but also builds a management system that ensures enthusiastic recitation, sanad legitimacy, the formation of Qur'anic character, and the continuity of Al-Qur'an transmission back to the Prophet Muhammad SAW," Hayatina explained. The research's novelty lies in developing this integrated management model, offering a conceptual contribution to Islamic Education Management by merging institutional governance, quality assurance, sanad recognition, and regeneration sustainability. This model is intended as a conceptual reference for developing tahfidz programs with sanad in various Islamic educational institutions.
