Reconstructing Educational Values of Alas Purwo Local Wisdom through Islamic Religious Education: A Cultural Perspective

This study aims to reconstruct the educational values embedded in Alas Purwo local wisdom through the perspectives of Islamic Religious Education and culture. A qualitative library research approach was employed using scholarly publications, cultural documents, and educational literature as data sources. Data were analyzed using Creswell's qualitative procedures involving data organization, reading, interpretation, and representation, integrated with Saldaña's coding techniques (initial, pattern, and axial coding) to generate conceptual themes. The findings identify six reconstructed educational values: religiosity, ecological stewardship (khalifah fil ardh), religious moderation, social responsibility, respect for cultural heritage, and spiritual reflection. These values provide a contextual framework for strengthening Islamic Religious Education through local wisdom-based learning. From a cultural perspective, Alas Purwo functions as a medium for cultural transmission, identity preservation, character formation, and the development of students' ecological and spiritual awareness in contemporary education Keywords: Alas Purwo; Islamic Religious Education; Local Wisdom; Cultural Perspective
