Islamic Education Management Strategy and Training in the Process of Da'i Knighting

Abstract

This study examines strategies for managing Islamic education and training for recruiting outstanding preachers. The focus is on planning, organizing, implementing, and evaluating education and da'wah training to produce preachers who have memorized the Qur'an. The preachers are competent in preaching and Islamic morals. This research uses a qualitative approach with a case study method. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The results show that the planning stage begins with the da'wah curriculum and the organization of the training structure. It continues with the implementation of practice-based coaching and continuous evaluation. The training program is developed through halaqah activities, lecture practice, da'wah safaris, and intensive mentoring. Visionary leadership is a major supportive factor, while limited facilities and human resources pose challenges. In conclusion, the implemented education and training management strategy is effective in producing da'is who are spiritually, intellectually, and socially superior. This model is relevant for replication by other Islamic educational institutions with a vision for developing da'wah cadres
