Abstract: | OBJECTIVE: Breast milk is considered the best nourishment for babies because it contains essential nutrients for their growth and development. In the Islamic faith, mothers are encouraged to breastfeed their children for two years, as stated in Al-Quran surah Al-Baqarah verse 233: "Mothers should breastfeed their children for two full years for whoever wants to complete the breastfeeding period" This study aimed to investigate the role of Islamic religious leaders in promoting exclusive breastfeeding in Padangsidempuan. METHODOLOGY: The research utilized a phenomenological design and involved selecting four participants used purposive sampling technique. Data was obtained through comprehensive interviews and analyzed using Braun and Clarke method. The data data was taken in July in Padangsidempuan. RESULTS: The study identified five themes: (1) Knowledge of Islamic religious figures about exclusive breastfeeding, (2) Motivation of Islamic religious figures to provide information about breastfeeding, (3) Etiquette of providing breastfeeding, (4) Targets of providing information about breastfeeding (5) Expectations of Islamic religious figures regarding exclusive breastfeeding. CONCLUSION: To promote exclusive breastfeeding in Padangsidempuan, we propose a comprehensive approach involving counseling sessions, educational modules, and regional regulations mandating Islamic religious leaders to provide information about exclusive breastfeeding. This strategy aims to increase awareness and encourage the adopting of exclusive breastfeeding practices among new mothers and families by engaging religious figures for a broader impact. |
