Abstract

Salafi pesantren are traditional Islamic educational institutions that focus on teaching classical Islamic texts (kitab kuning). However, in the face of globalization and technological advancement, these institutions are challenged to remain relevant to the needs of the modern era. This study aims to examine the curriculum revitalization efforts at Pesantren Salafiyah Al Kahfi in order to produce graduates who possess not only deep religious knowledge but also essential skills for the modern world. This research uses a qualitative descriptive approach through interviews, observations, and document studies. The findings reveal a gap between the traditional educational practices of the pesantren and the demands of the times, such as the lack of integration of technology and general sciences. Nonetheless, there is strong support from internal stakeholders, students, and parents for curriculum reform. Revitalization efforts include contextual learning, social skills training, and limited use of technology. In conclusion, curriculum renewal is a crucial step to ensure that salafi pesantren remain adaptive Islamic educational institutions, preserving their traditional values while producing graduates who are both religiously grounded and competent in various aspects of modern life.
