Adh-dhaman is an essential concept in Islamic law, particularly related to liability and obligations for damages or harm caused by an individual to the property or rights of others. The term originates from the Arabic word dhimmah, which means responsibility or obligation, and has broad applications in the context of muamalah (social and business interactions). The legal basis for Adh-dhaman in Islamic law is found in both the Qur'an and the sayings of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). In the Qur'an, Allah says, "And do not consume one another’s wealth unjustly" (Surah Al-Baqarah: 188). This reflects the principle that no one should unlawfully take the rights of others, and if they do, they are obligated to make restitution. In the hadith, the Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "There should be neither harming nor reciprocating harm" (Narrated by Ibn Majah). This hadith emphasizes that in Islam, any act that causes harm to others, whether directly or indirectly, must be accounted for. Adh-dhaman involves two primary elements: sabab (cause) and dhaman (compensation). In every case, Islamic law considers the intention and the degree of negligence to determine whether a person is obligated to compensate and the extent of that compensation.

Abstract, Fasting in Islam is not only an act of worship that brings one closer to Allah, but also offers physical and mental health benefits. In addition to increasing piety, fasting helps discipline oneself and supports the body's detoxification process. The biological processes that occur during fasting, such as rest for the digestive system and the use of energy reserves, demonstrate Allah's wisdom. Fasting also prevents diseases caused by overeating, such as hypertension, diabetes, and heart problems. Medical research reveals that moderate eating patterns and regular fasting improve overall health. Fasting, such as during Ramadan, also boosts metabolism, organ health, and psychological well-being by regulating emotions and behavior. Various types of fasting, both obligatory and voluntary, have different health impacts, and studies support the benefits of fasting in reducing inflammation, regulating blood glucose levels, and enhancing overall quality of life.    

This article examines the narrative of human fall in Genesis chapter 3 and the manifestation of God's grace within it. Using qualitative and hermeneutical methods, this research analyzes how the disobedience of Adam and Eve brought universal consequences for humanity. This fall not only resulted in the breakdown of the relationship between humans and God but also brought consequences in the form of curses and suffering.

Additionally, behavioral assessments should be included in the report card and not just as a formality. In this way, it is hoped that the PAI learning process can be more meaningful and contribute to the formation of students' character as a whole.

Islamic teachings are a life guide for muslims that originate from various important references. These sources of Islamic teachings are the basis for living a life in accordance with Allah's commands and the guidance of His Messenger. There are four main sources recognized in Islamic teachings, namely the Al-Qur'an, Hadith, Ijma', and Qiyas. The Al-Qur'an is the holy book of Muslims which is believed to be a revelation from Allah SWT which was conveyed to the Prophet Muhammad SAW, while the Hadith is a collection of sayings, actions and approvals of the Prophet Muhammad SAW which serve as a guide in understanding and practicing Islamic teachings. This article aims to examine the role and importance of these four sources in shaping the law, ethics and social life of Muslims. Through qualitative research methods with a descriptive-analytical approach, the research results show that the Al-Qur'an and Hadith are closely related in shaping Muslims' understanding of religion. In addition, this article also examines how ulama use these two sources in establishing Islamic law (shariah) and how these teachings are applied in different socio-cultural contexts. Thus, this research strengthens the importance of understanding in depth the two sources of Islamic teachings in order to apply them in everyday life.

Interpretation of the Qur'an is an effort to understand Allah's verses through various methods, including tafsir bil-ma'tsur, tafsir bil-ra'yi, and tafsir Isyari. Tafsir bil-ma'tsur relies on the Qur'an, hadith, and the understanding of the companions and the tabi'in, carrying strong authority but not without critique regarding the authenticity of its chains of narration and the potential inclusion of Israiliyat. Tafsir bil-ra'yi employs reason and logic, divided into commendable interpretations that adhere to the principles of Quranic exegesis and blameworthy interpretations that often deviate from Islamic law. Meanwhile, tafsir Isyari offers a symbolic and esoteric approach, requiring strict conditions to ensure relevance and alignment with the apparent meaning of the verses. Although scholars have differing opinions regarding the validity of these interpretative methods, they collectively reflect the intellectual richness of Islam in interpreting the Qur'an to meet the spiritual and intellectual needs of the community across different contexts and eras.

This study discusses the concept of dress ethics in Islam, focusing on the dress code for both men and women as well as the ethics that should be applied when dressing. In Islam, dressing is not merely a matter of appearance, but also related to religious teachings that emphasize the importance of covering the aurat, maintaining modesty, and preserving honor. For men, the dress code is strictly regulated by Sharia, including the aurat limitation between the navel and the knee, the prohibition of wearing gold and silk, and the prohibition of imitating women's or non-Muslims' clothing. Meanwhile, for women, the dress code is more complex with specific requirements such as covering the aurat, wearing non-transparent clothing, not accentuating body contours, and avoiding imitation of men's or non-Muslim clothing. This study also highlights the concept of tabarruj, which refers to the act of displaying jewelry and beauty to men who are not mahram, considered a violation of Islamic dress ethics. Additionally, this research explains the meaning of jilbab in the Qur'an, which is understood as an outer garment that covers the entire body, serving as protection and a means of distinguishing believing women. Overall, dress ethics in Islam encompasses not only physical aspects but also spiritual ones, reflecting devotion to Allah through sincere intentions in accordance with religious teachings. This study provides a deeper understanding of the significance of dress ethics as part of a Muslim's identity in faith.

Shirk, the sin of associating partners with Allah, poses a significant threat to the foundation of faith among Muslims. In the Qur'an, shirk is described as the greatest sin that will not be forgiven except through sincere repentance. This article aims to explore the concept of shirk, define its various forms, and provide examples of major (akbar) and minor (ashgar) shirk. Using a qualitative approach, this research analyzes Islamic literature and Qur'anic verses to examine the impact of shirk on the spiritual and moral lives of Muslims. The findings indicate that shirk can damage an individual's relationship with Allah and threaten moral integrity. In modern contexts, shirk may also manifest in subtle forms, such as materialism. Education on Tawhid, emphasizing the oneness of Allah, is crucial in preventing shirk. This study seeks to raise awareness about the dangers of shirk and the importance of maintaining pure faith. With a better understanding of shirk, it is hoped that individuals can avoid such practices and align their lives with Islamic teachings.

This research investigates the connection between faith and knowledge as outlined in Surah Al-Mujadalah, particularly focusing on the two key conditions for attaining higher ranks in the sight of Allah SWT: tafassuh fil majlis (creating space in gatherings) and bersegera dalam melakukan kebaikan (rushing to do good deeds). These principles emphasize that faith and knowledge should not be mere theoretical concepts but must be reflected in practical actions that benefit society and align with Islamic values.
