Abstract

This study aims to explore the Multicultural education content in the ISMUBA curriculum and its implementation in learning at SMA Muhammadiyah 4 Bandung City. Using a qualitative descriptive method, the research describes conditions in curriculum documents and field observations related to learning. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, and analyzed using data triangulation by reducing, presenting, and concluding the data. The findings reveal that the ISMUBA curriculum, which is unique to educational institutions under Muhammadiyah, is an integrative-holistic modern Islamic education system developed to meet community needs. Based on decree 98/KEP/I.4/F/2017, the curriculum focuses on instilling faith, piety, and strong Islamic values, rooted in the Qur'an and Hadith. Multicultural education is embedded in the curriculum’s structure, process, teachers, and assessments. Implementation at SMA Muhammadiyah 4 involves face-to-face learning, habituation, structured and unstructured independent activities, fostering Islamic character, honesty, care, politeness, and responsibility.
