SUPPORTING AND INHIBITING FACTORS OF FINANCING THE ALIFA TAHFIDZ BOARDING SCHOOL IN SLEMAN

Abstrak

This study aims to analyze the supporting and inhibiting factors in financial management at the Tahfidz Alifa Islamic Boarding School in Sleman. The focus of the study is directed at the role of donors as a crucial element in the sustainability of Islamic boarding school financing. The research method uses a qualitative approach with a phenomenological type. The research subjects were students and caretakers of the Tahfidz Alifa Islamic Boarding School in Sleman. Data collection techniques were carried out through in-depth interviews and participatory observation, while data analysis used an interactive analysis model involving data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions repeatedly. The results of the study indicate that the main supporting factor in Islamic boarding school financial management is the high enthusiasm of donors in donating part of their assets. This support makes the collected funds relatively sufficient for the operational needs of the Islamic boarding school, including the provision of facilities and tahfidz education programs. The inhibiting factor found is the presence of new donors who do not understand the donation flow. They sometimes do not confirm the donations given, so in the Islamic boarding school's financial administration records, they are often written with the term "Hamba Allah." The study's conclusions confirm that donor participation is a significant supporting factor in managing Islamic boarding school financing, but a better recording and communication system is needed to maintain transparency and accountability. These findings contribute to academics by highlighting the importance of systematically managing donor participation to support the sustainability of Islamic boarding school memorization programs.
