Abstract

One of the most discussed topics in today’s society is the issue of widows’ proper rights and status. This research paper investigates the rights and status of widows within the framework of Islamic education in the context of Bangladesh using qualitative methods. It included the Qur’an, Hadith, and various forms of research.  Islam has given them a detailed discussion of their rights and dignity just like any other woman. Widows often face unique challenges and social stigmatization in various societies, and this study focuses on understanding their rights and status as prescribed by Islamic teachings and the extent to which these teachings are implemented within the realm of Islamic education. Bangladesh government has fixed some allowance for them which is very little. No steps have been taken to increase employment to make them economically prosperous. This paper contributes to the ongoing discourse on women’s rights within an Islamic context and highlights the significance of integrating such discussions within the education system for tangible societal transformation.

Abstract

This community service aims to teach the people of Solo about the importance of religiosity in minimising conflict and violence. In the context of Solo's multicultural and multireligious society, conflict and violence often arise as a result of tensions between groups or individuals of different faiths. Through strengthening religiosity, we hold a series of activities such as seminars, workshops, and group discussions to increase understanding of religious values that value peace and tolerance. The active participation of various community groups, including religious leaders, community leaders, and youth, enables a rich exchange of views and a deeper understanding of how religiosity can be the foundation for building a peaceful and harmonious society. Evaluation of activities shows an increased understanding of the importance of religiosity in dealing with conflict and violence. At the end of the project, there was an increase in awareness of the importance of interfaith cooperation and rejection of conflict and violence as a solution to differences of faith. Thus, this dedication is the first step in efforts to build a more tolerant and peaceful society in Solo.
