This study aims to analyze the implementation of Islamic marketing and digital-based Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) at Pegadaian Syariah Surabaya from the perspective of maqashid sharia and assess how the integration of the two supports the sustainability of the institution and public trust. The background of the study departs from the development of digital technology that requires Islamic financial institutions to maintain transparency, fairness, data security, and sharia compliance in all marketing activities and social programs. The research method uses a descriptive qualitative approach through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation analysis on digital services and CSR activities of Pegadaian Syariah. The results show that digital Islamic marketing not only functions as a promotional tool, but also as a sharia education medium that upholds the values ​​of shidq, amanah, and maslahah, thereby supporting hifz al-din, hifz al-mal, and hifz al-‘aql. Meanwhile, the implementation of CSR covers the fields of religion, health, education, and empowerment of MSMEs that are in line with the five dimensions of maqashid sharia. The integration of Islamic marketing and CSR creates a strategic synergy that increases public trust, strengthens the institution's legitimacy, and ensures the sustainability of Pegadaian Syariah in the digital era. This research provides theoretical contributions regarding maqasid-based marketing and CSR strategies, as well as practical recommendations for strengthening sharia governance and digital education programs.

From the perspective of criminal liability theory, criminal policy, and Islamic law, sexual gratification is a form of corruption. According to positive criminal law, a person can only be held liable when three essential elements are fulfilled: an unlawful act, culpability (dolus or culpa), and the capacity for responsibility. However, in the context of public office, sexual gratification constitutes an unlawful act because it involves the acceptance of non-fina. Since the acceptance of sexual services within a power relationship usually indicates awareness of reciprocal policy gains, purpose (dolus) is frequently dominating. From the perspective of criminal policy, the restriction of sexual gratification reflects the growth of corruption as a white collar crime—a term coined by Edwin H. Sutherland—where abuse of power encompasses intangible rewards in addition to monetary transfers. According to Islamic law, sexual enjoyment constitutes two violations: it may be considered risywah (bribery) because of its transactional motive, and it may also be considered jarimah zina if it takes place outside of a legally recognized marriage. Such behaviors compromise the protection of property, ancestry, and religion through the framework of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah developed by Abu Ishaq al-Shatibi in Al-Muwafaqat. The study comes to the conclusion that in order to guarantee accountability, protect public integrity, and promote social welfare, it is imperative to develop legal interpretation and evidential procedures.

This study analyzes the concept of al-Kasb in the view of Muhammad ibn al-Hasan al-Shaybani and assesses the relationship between this concept and contemporary work ethics. With the changes in the modern economic system, which emphasize efficiency, objective rationality, and the achievement of optimal results, various ethical conflicts in the professional and business world have become more apparent. The methodology applied in this study is a literature review with a descriptive-analytic approach, through the analysis of classical and contemporary texts to explore the theological, ethical, and social aspects contained in the concept of al-Kasb, and then conceptually compare it with the characteristics of modern work ethics. The findings of this study show that al-Kasb is not only understood as an economic activity aimed at accumulating wealth, but also as a normative guide that integrates the goals of worship, ethical responsibility, and social obligations in the production process. Work activities are viewed as an individual responsibility that supports the practice of worship and as a collective responsibility to maintain social-economic welfare and harmony. Therefore, al-Kasb provides an integrative ethical foundation that has the potential to enrich and strengthen current work ethics by emphasizing values of integrity, justice, and social responsibility in the economic aspects of life.

Industrial development in Indonesia has significantly contributed to national economic growth; however, it also poses potential risks of environmental pollution when corporate waste management is not conducted properly. Environmental pollution resulting from corporate waste activities may cause harm to surrounding communities, including health problems, ecosystem degradation, as well as material and immaterial losses. In this context, the class action mechanism serves as a relevant legal instrument to collectively advocate for the rights of affected communities. This study aims to analyze the implementation of the class action mechanism in environmental pollution cases based on Decision Number 29/Pdt.G/2023/PN.Skh and to evaluate its effectiveness in providing legal protection and restoring the rights of affected communities. This research employs normative legal research using statute approach, case approach, and conceptual approach. The findings indicate that the class action mechanism in the aforementioned decision fulfilled the requirements of numerosity, commonality, typicality, and adequacy of representation as regulated under Supreme Court Regulation (PERMA) Number 1 of 2002. Procedurally, the class action proved effective in enhancing access to justice, ensuring judicial efficiency, and strengthening the protection of the constitutional right to a good and healthy environment. However, its substantive effectiveness remains dependent on the fulfillment of formal requirements, the quality of evidence presented, and the consistent application of environmental law principles by judges. Therefore, the class action mechanism constitutes an important instrument in environmental law enforcement, yet it requires consistent regulatory support and judicial practice to achieve optimal ecological justice.

Therefore, PTPN VII Unit Pematang Kiwah Natar, South Lampung, has demonstrated its commitment to environmental regulatory compliance.

This study investigates the role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools, specifically ChatGPT and Jenni AI, in supporting academic integrity through accurate citation generation. Employing a descriptive qualitative method, the research involved 30 undergraduate students who evaluated AI-generated citations using Fishman’s (2014) Academic Integrity Theory and Smith’s (2020) Citation Accuracy Framework. Data were collected through questionnaires assessing students’ perceptions of reliability, ethical responsibility, and accuracy in AI-assisted citation practices. Quantitative analysis revealed that Honesty and Accountability were the most dominant values (22.58% each), followed by Fairness and Respect (19.35% each), Trust (12.90%), and Courage (3.23%). Qualitative findings showed that students recognized AI’s potential to enhance writing efficiency but emphasized the need for human verification to ensure factual correctness and ethical compliance. Comparatively, Jenni AI demonstrated greater consistency and citation verification than ChatGPT, which exhibited more frequent fabrication and inaccuracy. The study concludes that while AI tools can enhance academic productivity, maintaining academic integrity still requires critical human oversight, ethical awareness, and adherence to scholarly honesty and accountability.

The phenomena of cyberbullying and digital intolerance among young people are increasingly alarming in the era of technological disruption, and Christian Religious Education (CRE) is called to provide an adequate pedagogical response to this ethical crisis. This study aims to analyze the relevance of Emmanuel Levinas's ethics of responsibility toward the Other for the formation of students' digital character within CRE, and to formulate a pedagogical framework capable of transforming students' digital behavior from egocentric tendencies toward persons who uphold human dignity. A qualitative method with a library research design was employed, utilizing thematic content analysis of relevant academic sources. The findings indicate that Levinas's concepts of the face (le visage) and asymmetrical responsibility hold profound relevance for CRE, as they directly challenge the egocentric logic underlying destructive behavior in digital spaces. The pedagogical framework of CRE is formulated through three pillars: face-to-face pedagogy, alterity-based digital ethics literacy, and spirituality of responsibility as the foundation of transformation. The implications of this study affirm that CRE holds strategic potential to become a space for cultivating digital moral resilience, grounded in the affirmation of imago Dei and a transformative relational ethics.

Indiscipline in learning behavior is a form of problematic behavior that is commonly found in the school environment and has the potential to hinder the effectiveness of the learning process. This issue does not arise suddenly; rather, it develops gradually through processes influenced by various factors. This article aims to examine the problem of indiscipline in learning through a review and analysis of relevant research findings. The study uses a literature review method by collecting, examining, and analyzing journals and scientific references that discuss learning discipline and students’ indisciplined behavior. The results indicate that indiscipline in learning activities is influenced by both internal and external factors. Internal factors include low interest and motivation, poor study habits, weak values and morals, as well as students’ physical and psychological conditions. Meanwhile, external factors include family situations, peer influence, the school environment, the use of technology, and inconsistent enforcement of rules. The observable behaviors include arriving late, skipping school without clear reasons, violating school regulations, and showing a lack of responsibility. Therefore, addressing the problem of indiscipline in learning requires a comprehensive and sustainable approach involving both schools and families.

The results indicate an increase in community participation and environmental awareness, a reduction in improperly disposed plastic waste, and an improvement in community skills in processing plastic waste into useful products. In addition, the activity strengthened mutual cooperation and environmental responsibility among community members. In conclusion, the application of a circular economy approach through ecobrick-based activities can serve as an effective alternative solution for plastic waste management while simultaneously supporting sustainable community empowerment in rural tourism areas.

This study was motivated by the low level of independence among Group B children at PAUD Matahari, Tohe Village, Raihat District, Belu Regency. Initial observations revealed that most children still depended on teacher assistance in completing learning activities, particularly in puzzle-solving tasks. Independence is a crucial developmental aspect in early childhood, as it relates to children’s ability to make decisions, complete tasks independently, build self-confidence, and develop a sense of responsibility. Therefore, appropriate instructional strategies are needed to stimulate the development of children’s independence through meaningful and educational play activities. The purpose of this study was to improve children’s independence through puzzle activities. The research employed Classroom Action Research (CAR) conducted in two cycles, each consisting of planning, action, observation, and reflection stages. The subjects were 12 children (6 boys and 6 girls). Data were collected using observation sheets with assessment categories: Very Well Developed, Developed as Expected, Beginning to Develop, and Not Yet Developed. The data were analyzed using descriptive quantitative methods by calculating the percentage of improvement in each cycle. The results indicated a significant increase in children’s independence from Cycle I to Cycle II. Thus, puzzle activities proved effective in enhancing the independence of Group B children at PAUD Matahari.

Instilling saving habits from an early age is an essential component of character education, particularly in fostering discipline, responsibility, and independence. Initial observations at PAUD Nurul Islam, Jelutih Village indicate that early childhood saving interest remains relatively low due to limited engaging learning media and the absence of structured habituation. This Community Service Program (KKN) aims to foster early childhood saving interest through creative piggy bank media aligned with children’s developmental characteristics. The implementation method comprised planning, execution, and evaluation stages. During execution, children were introduced to saving concepts through simple storytelling and interactive dialogue, followed by hands-on creation of creative piggy banks using simple, child-friendly materials. These piggy banks were then used to habituate saving behavior. The results demonstrate increased enthusiasm and saving interest among children, reflected in their willingness to set aside money and heightened responsibility toward their piggy banks. Therefore, creative piggy bank media serve as an effective alternative learning tool for fostering saving interest and positive character development among early childhood learners at PAUD Nurul Islam, Jelutih Village.

This research explores the narrative of Cain and Abel in Genesis 4:1-16 to dissect the concepts of sin and moral responsibility within a modern Christian context. Amidst the rising tide of individualism and "bystander culture," ethical responsibility toward others is often neglected behind religious formalities. Utilizing a qualitative method with a biblical exegesis approach, this study analyzes narrative structures, the personification of sin, and the dynamics of the dialogue between God and Cain. The findings indicate that sin in this text is understood as a relational failure and a failure of self-mastery, where humans possess the moral authority to conquer destructive impulses. Cain's rhetorical question, “Am I my brother’s keeper?”, is identified as a form of moral erosion leading to social and ecological alienation. However, God’s provision of a “mark” for Cain affirms that divine justice is always accompanied by the grace of providence. This research concludes that moral responsibility is a fundamental essence of humanity that demands the integration of ritual piety and social integrity. These findings are expected to serve as an ethical framework for academic and ecclesiastical communities, particularly in restoring the commitment to be “keepers” of one another amidst contemporary moral crises.

This study analyzes the ethics of Christian Religious Education teachers based on James 3:1, which emphasizes the great responsibility carried by those who teach in the context of educational ministry. The research aims to examine the relevance of biblical principles regarding the role and duties of teachers with the implementation of the professional code of ethics for Christian Religious Education teachers in Indonesia. Teachers are not only responsible for delivering academic knowledge but also serve as moral and spiritual role models whose words, attitudes, and actions significantly influence students’ faith development. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method through literature analysis, including the interpretation of James 3:1, ethical guidelines, and theological-pedagogical studies. The findings show that James 3:1 provides a strong warning for teachers to be cautious, responsible, and accountable in their teaching practices, as their judgment before God is greater. In conclusion, the ethics of Christian Religious Education teachers reflect their faith commitment in carrying out their responsibilities with integrity.

This study aims to examine the use of deixis in the film Habibie and Ainun (2012) through a pragmatic approach and to explore its implications for character education. The research employs a descriptive qualitative method by analyzing utterances containing personal, spatial, temporal, discourse, and social deixis in the main characters’ dialogues. The data were obtained through transcription and contextual interpretation to uncover the pragmatic meanings embedded in the linguistic expressions. The findings reveal that deixis functions not only as a linguistic reference marker but also as a medium for expressing and reinforcing character values such as loyalty, responsibility, perseverance, and love. The contextual use of language in the film reflects the process of moral formation and emotional depth, demonstrating how language contributes to shaping character development. This study contributes to the development of Indonesian language learning by emphasizing the integration of pragmatic analysis and character education through film media. Therefore, it is recommended that language educators utilize educational films containing pragmatic elements as effective learning resources to enhance both linguistic competence and moral awareness among students.

This study aims to explore the effectiveness of group counseling services integrated with self-regulated learning (SRL) techniques in enhancing students’ learning motivation. Learning motivation is a crucial factor influencing academic achievement, yet many students still experience low motivation due to various internal and external challenges. The integration of SRL is considered beneficial as it encourages students to actively manage their learning processes through goal setting, self-monitoring, and reflective evaluation. This research employs a literature review approach by examining recent and relevant academic sources. The findings indicate that the application of SRL within group counseling contributes positively to students’ motivation, as reflected in increased participation, improved learning discipline, and stronger responsibility toward academic tasks. Furthermore, students demonstrate better ability in organizing their learning activities and maintaining consistency in achieving learning objectives. These results suggest that SRL-based group counseling can serve as an effective strategy for school counselors in supporting students’ academic motivation and engagement.

Production is a fundamental component of economic activity that plays a strategic role in achieving human well-being. From an Islamic economic perspective, production is understood not only as a technical process aimed at creating or increasing the utility value of goods and services, but also as a manifestation of human responsibility as leaders on this earth. Using an Islamic economic interpretation of the verses of the Qur'an and hadith, this study aims to examine the concept of production in depth from an Islamic economic perspective. Using a descriptive-analytical approach, this research technique utilizes a literature review to examine Islamic economic literature and relevant interpretations, in addition to primary sources such as the Qur'an and hadith. The results show that the Qur'an and hadith provide a framework for production that integrates moral, social, and spiritual values ​​into economic activities, utilizes natural resources optimally and sustainably, and produces halal goods and services. Along with material gain, Islamic manufacturing aims to promote social justice, individual well-being, and ecological harmony. Therefore, the concept of production from an Islamic economic perspective makes economic activity a form of worship and a tool for developing well-being that adheres to the principles of Islamic law.

This study aims to analyze the influence of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) on firm value and examine the role of audit committees and gender diversity as moderating variables in raw materials companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Using a quantitative approach with a sample of 58 companies selected through purposive sampling, data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and moderated regression analysis (MRA). The results show that CSR has a positive and significant effect on firm value, indicating that the higher the disclosure and implementation of CSR, the higher the market appreciation of the company. However, audit committees and gender diversity were not proven to be able to moderate the relationship between CSR and firm value. This finding implies that although CSR has been proven effective in increasing firm value through positive investor perceptions, corporate governance mechanisms represented by audit committees and gender diversity have not functioned optimally in strengthening this relationship. Therefore, companies need to consistently improve the quality of CSR implementation and evaluate the effectiveness of the role of audit committees and gender diversity policies so that they are not merely regulatory compliance but actually contribute to overseeing and directing the company's sustainability strategy.
