Reconstruction of The Islamic Religious Education Curriculum in the Destructive 5.0 Era: Integrating Artificial Intelligence, Ethical Values, and Sustainable Competencies
This article examines the urgency of reconstructing the Islamic Religious Education (IRE/PAI) curriculum in facing the challenges of Society 5.0, which is laden with technological disruption, particularly the emergence of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Using a qualitative approach based on library research, this study systematically analyzes various scientific literature, education policy documents, and contemporary theories concerning technology integration in religious education. The findings indicate that the conventional Islamic religious education curriculum has not been able to adequately respond to the challenges of the destructive 5.0 era, making reconstruction necessary across three main dimensions: (1) integration of artificial intelligence as a pedagogical tool without sacrificing spiritual values; (2) strengthening Islamic ethical values as a moral foundation amid the flow of digitalization; and (3) developing sustainable competencies relevant to twenty-first-century needs. This research recommends an integrative PAI curriculum model that combines digital-spiritual literacy, contextual Islamic ethics, and adaptive competencies as a strategic response to contemporary challenges.
