This study aims to examine in-depth the cultural, social, and religious values ​​embodied in the traditional Jaipong dance and their relevance to cultural development in Islamic Religious Education (PAI). The approach used was a qualitative study based on literature review with an ethnopedagogical perspective, which views local culture as a source of learning. The results indicate that Jaipong Dance not only possesses aesthetic elements as part of artistic expression, but also contains moral, social, and spiritual values ​​that reflect the character of the Sundanese people. These values ​​include discipline, creativity, cooperation, courtesy, self-confidence, and a spirit of togetherness and nationalism. All of these values ​​align with the principles of Islamic education, which emphasize noble morals, respect for culture, and the development of student character. Therefore, the integration of local arts and culture, such as Jaipong, into Islamic Religious Education (PAI) learning, can enrich educational methods, provide contextual learning, and foster students' love for Islamic values ​​that are more humanistic, inclusive, and applicable in everyday life.

The death of Diplomat Arya Daru has opened up a space for reflection on the extent to which the state has fulfilled its investigative obligations to guarantee the right to life and the right to truth, as fundamental human rights. The delay and secrecy of the investigation indicate institutional accountability issues and weak mechanisms for protecting the rights of victims and their families. This study uses a doctrinal legal approach to examine the state's position through the perspectives of positive obligations theory and distributive justice, which emphasize the state's active obligation to protect, disclose, and restore citizens' basic rights. The analysis shows that the lack of transparency in the investigative process not only violates the principle of justice but also reflects inequality in the distribution of legal protection. The state should ensure that justice does not stop at the formal level but is realized through transparent, independent investigations based on factual truth. In the context of human rights, the state's passive attitude towards alleged violations of the right to life can be interpreted as a denial of its constitutional and moral responsibilities. This study emphasizes that fulfilling the right to truth is an integral part of distributive justice and is non-negotiable. Thus, the Arya Daru case is an important indicator for assessing the state's seriousness in realizing a legal system that is just, accountable and oriented towards respecting human dignity.

Our country is known as a nation that upholds human rights values. This is manifested in the recognition of the right to express opinions, which is specifically regulated in Law Number 9 of 1998 concerning Freedom of Expression in Public. Along with the increasing dynamics of political contestation and polarization in society, the frequency of demonstrations has also escalated. This condition places the professionalism and neutrality of the police force under increasing public scrutiny. The reduction in citizens' freedom to express their aspirations often creates a negative image of the police, particularly due to repressive actions and the use of discretion that is deemed disproportionate. Based on a normative juridical approach, this study aims to analyze the extent to which the state upholds access and protection of freedom of expression in public, as well as examine the application of human rights principles from both national and international legal perspectives in demonstrations

Modern students face high academic, social, and personal pressures, but Christian Religious Education has not yet maximized the potential of religious-based resilience. This study aims to: (1) analyze how the biblical values of faith, hope, and love can strengthen the components of students' psychological resilience in the cognitive, emotional, and spiritual dimensions; and (2) identify the integration mechanism between biblical teachings and psychological strategies in Christian Religious Education learning that can increase students' resilience in facing academic and personal stress. The method used is descriptive qualitative with a literature study approach to various journals, articles, and related academic sources. The results of the study show that the biblical values of faith, hope, and love are fundamental pillars that strengthen students' psychological resilience as a whole. Faith provides a foundation of self-confidence and personal competence, hope activates optimism and sustained motivation, while love builds healthy social relationships and essential emotional support. These three values work synergistically to strengthen students' emotional regulation, problem analysis, empathy, and self-efficacy. The deep integration of biblical teachings and psychology in PAK learning through biblical narratives, secure parenting relationships, supportive communities, and reflective feedback has proven effective in holistically improving student resilience. In conclusion, PAK learning that explicitly integrates biblical values with psychological resilience strategies is a transformative instrument for shaping students into individuals who not only perform well academically but are also spiritually strong, psychologically resilient, and ready to face complex life situations in accordance with the principles of 1 Corinthians 13:13 regarding faith, hope, and love

This study examines in depth the concepts of maysir, gharar, and riba as three practices that are prohibited in sharia economics because they are considered to cause injustice and imbalance in economic activities. Through an analysis of the postulates of the Qur'an and Hadith, this study confirms that the prohibition of maysir is based on the element of excessive speculation that harms one of the parties, gharar is rejected because it contains ambiguity in the object and contract, while riba is prohibited because it creates an unequal addition in financial transactions. In addition, the study highlights how other religions and various modern economic systems have paid attention to the principles that are in line with the prohibition of these three concepts, especially related to business ethics, social justice, and economic risk mitigation. A cross-faith perspective shows that universal values such as honesty, transparency, and balance are essential foundations for building a sustainable economic order. By combining normative perspectives and cross-tradition comparisons, this study seeks to provide a comprehensive understanding of the dangers of maysir, gharar, and usury, as well as the implications of the implementation of their prohibition in modern economic life. The results of the study are expected to be a reference in formulating economic practices that are fair, stable, and able to be widely applied in various communities.

This study discusses the role of Christian ethics in shaping attitudes towards abortion in Indonesia, which has led to moral, social, and legal debates. The main issues examined are how the biblical view and Christian ethical teachings assess the act of abortion and how the attitude of the church and believers in responding to this phenomenon. The aim of this study is to understand theologically and ethically the position of the Christian faith on abortion, while offering a compassionate pastoral approach to women facing such moral dilemmas. The research method used is descriptive qualitative method, by examining various theological, social, and legal sources to describe in depth the views of Christian ethics on abortion. The results showed that in the view of Christian ethics, human life is a holy gift of God from the womb, so abortion is considered contrary to his will. However, the church and believers are called not only to reject abortion in a normative way, but also to provide mentoring, moral education, and spiritual support for those affected. This study confirms the importance of balance between truth and love in dealing with the issue of abortion as a concrete manifestation of the application of Christian ethics in society.

This study aims to analyze the role of digitalization in driving social development in Indonesia through the perspective of development sociology. Digitalization has become a major force transforming social structures, values, and interaction patterns in societies worldwide. The results show that digital technology contributes significantly to increased social participation, economic empowerment, and equitable access to information. However, on the other hand, challenges arise in the form of a digital divide between urban and rural communities that can deepen social inequality. In the context of development sociology, digitalization is not only viewed as a technological process, but also as a social phenomenon that influences the dynamics of community life. Therefore, digital-based development must be directed inclusively so that all levels of society receive equal benefits. The government, educational institutions, and the community need to synergize in strengthening digital literacy and maintaining socio-cultural values ​​amidst the current of technological globalization. With a fair and participatory approach, digitalization can be an important means of strengthening social solidarity and realizing shared prosperity.

This study aims to reflect on the Islamic business ethics values contained in QS Al-Jumu’ah verses 9–10 and their relevance in fraud prevention from the perspective of Sharia accounting. Fraudulent actions in business, such as falsifying financial reports and arranging transactions, are very dangerous issues because they undermine the economic system as a whole. This study uses a literature research method with a thematic interpretation (tafsir maudhu’i) approach to understand the meaning of Surah Al-Jumu’ah verses 9 to 10, as well as analyze scholarly works related to Sharia accounting and Islamic business ethics. The results of the study indicate that these verses provide ethical guidance that balances the obligation to worship with economic activities, so that every business transaction must be based on principles of honesty, transparency, trustworthiness, and responsibility. The integration of the values contained in the Qur’an is very important in preventing fraudulent actions because it shapes. The awareness that Allah always watches over all human actions.

Keywords: Sharia Accounting, QS Al-Jumu'ah Verses 9-10, Fraud, Islamic Business Ethics.

The form of historicization in literary criminology views criminality as the result of power relations, unequal social structures, and history. Criminal acts in historicization are always placed in a specific time and place context, tracing how a behavior is considered “criminal” or “against the law” depending on the historical construction formed by the legal system, the state, and the rulers. Historicization also reveals that what is referred to as crime is not absolute, but can change according to historical developments and power struggles. The purpose of this study is to describe the form of criminalization in the novel Lampuki, which is not merely an individual deviant act, but a reflection of historical trauma and a flawed social structure. The approach used is literary sociology. This study uses a descriptive-qualitative method with reading and note-taking techniques obtained from the novel Lampuki by Arafat Nur in the form of sentences and paragraphs. The results of the study show that there are seven data points that fall under the form of criminalization of history. From the seven data points, three findings were generalized and discovered in Arafat Nur novel Lampuki, namely: (1) transgenerational trauma of violence, (2) the destruction of the socio-cultural structure, and (3) dark figure of crime.

Consumer criticism on social media is a common form of expression used to convey dissatisfaction with products or services. However, such criticism often generates controversy, especially when it is perceived to harm the reputation of a company. Although the right to freedom of expression is guaranteed by the Consumer Protection Law, in practice, this guarantee frequently conflicts with the defamation provisions outlined in the Electronic Information and Transactions (ITE) Law. The case of "Om Polos Banget" serves as a concrete example where consumer criticism led to legal charges due to allegations of defamation. This study aims to analyze the boundaries of consumer freedom of expression on social media within the context of Indonesian legal regulations and to identify the elements of defamation that may ensnare consumers. The research utilizes a normative juridical method, focusing on the analysis of relevant laws and regulations concerning freedom of expression and defamation. The results of the study indicate that while consumers have the right to criticize, there are legal boundaries that must be observed to prevent the criticism from resulting in legal action. Therefore, clearer policies are needed to ensure a fair balance between consumer freedom of expression and corporate reputation protection, as well as the importance of consumers maintaining ethical conduct when expressing criticism on social media.

The role of economics in human life has become increasingly significant in the modern era as it serves as a foundation for meeting daily needs and achieving collective welfare. This study aims to analyze how Islamic economic principles regulate price determination in markets and income distribution to ensure fairness and social balance. The research adopts a qualitative approach through library research by reviewing classical Islamic literature, modern economic works, and Qur’anic interpretations related to economic justice. The findings show that Islam emphasizes justice, equality, and welfare as the foundation of all economic activity. Price setting in Islam must reflect fairness, avoiding exploitation and ensuring that transactions bring mutual benefit to both sellers and buyers. Meanwhile, income distribution is directed toward social equity through the implementation of zakat, infaq, and shadaqah, which serve as instruments for wealth redistribution and poverty alleviation. The implication of this study is that the application of Islamic economic principles can provide a moral and sustainable alternative to conventional capitalist systems by promoting fairness, social responsibility, and economic stability within society.

This study examines the complex issue of citizenship in interfaith marriages within Indonesia’s legal and human rights framework. The problem arises from the absence of explicit provisions in national law regarding the civil registration and citizenship consequences of marriages between individuals of different religions. This legal ambiguity often results in unequal recognition, difficulties in registering children’s citizenship, and broader implications for the right to identity. The research aims to analyze how Indonesian marriage law, administrative population law, and judicial interpretations interact with international and constitutional human rights principles. Using a normative juridical method combined with case study analysis and doctrinal review, this study identifies legal inconsistencies between national regulations and the principle of non-discrimination guaranteed under human rights law. The findings indicate that judicial practices, such as post-SEMA No. 2 of 2023 rulings, show a gradual shift toward balancing legal certainty with human rights protection, although disparities persist across jurisdictions. The study concludes that reform is required to clarify the status of interfaith marriages and to protect the citizenship rights of all parties involved, including children. It recommends that legislators harmonize marriage and citizenship laws with constitutional mandates and human rights instruments to ensure equality before the law, legal certainty, and respect for individual freedoms.

The fashion industry is experiencing continuous acceleration. Increased social and economic competition is occurring in society to expand the boundaries of consumer demand. Fast fashion companies have successfully built this business model by relying on cheap labor and the resulting social, economic, and environmental impacts. The method used in this study is qualitative research with a literature study approach and an understanding of the meaning of social or humanitarian phenomena examined through descriptive analysis using the Islamic economic theory framework. The results show that the fast fashion industry has exploited the environment and even labor rights, which has had an impact on the economy, society, and health. Based on Islamic production ethics, it is clearly explained in the Qur'an that production practices must bring benefits to humans without causing harm, based on the four main principles of the Islamic economic system, namely, monotheism, balance, free will, and responsibility. Meanwhile, Islamic consumption ethics avoid wastefulness (tabzir) and unnecessary spending (isyraf), so that consumption behavior can provide long-term benefits for both worldly and afterlife. This study emphasizes the importance of collaboration between the government, stakeholders, and the community in creating a sustainable production system in accordance with Islamic values.

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a chronic condition that not only impacts reproductive and metabolic functions, but also has a major impact on the mental health of women who experience it. This study aims to explore the factors that affect mental health in women with PCOS through a biopsychosocial approach. The method used was a review of the narrative literature on 11 scientific articles obtained through Google Scholar. The results of the study show that there are three main dimensions that are interrelated, namely biological factors (insulin resistance, obesity, hyperandrogenism, menstrual disorders, and infertility), psychological factors (neuroticism, coping style, and body image), and social factors (social stigma and social support). These three dimensions interact in a complex way and can contribute to the appearance of psychological disorders such as depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem. Therefore, a biopsychosocial approach is important to understand and treat the mental health of people with PCOS holistically. Interventions that are integrated between medical, psychological, and social aspects are needed to improve the emotional well-being and quality of life of women with PCOS in a sustainable manner.

The understanding of the doctrine of humanity and sin in Christian theology reveals the essence of human nature and the need for divine redemption. This study aims to examine theological perspectives on human nature and sin, focusing on the relationship between the Imago Dei and the fall of humanity. Using a qualitative descriptive approach through literature review, the research analyzes biblical texts and theological interpretations from various Christian scholars. The results show that humans, created in the image and likeness of God, were originally good and endowed with moral and spiritual capacity. However, through sin, humans experienced separation from God and moral corruption. Nevertheless, God’s grace through Jesus Christ enables the restoration of humanity’s divine image and reconciles the broken relationship with the Creator. The study highlights that understanding these doctrines helps believers realize their dependence on God’s grace, leading to repentance, transformation, and ethical living. The implication encourages Christians to maintain a responsible, spiritual, and moral life as a reflection of the renewed image of God within them.

This study aims to analyze toxic and narcissistic leadership in Christian educational institutions. The research method employed is a literature review with a content analysis approach. Data were collected through documentation studies of various academic books and relevant scholarly journals, then systematically analyzed to identify themes, patterns, and strategic insights. This literature review seeks to provide an in-depth understanding of toxic and narcissistic leadership phenomena, focusing on the influencing factors, their implications for organizations, and potential conflict resolution strategies. The findings reveal that toxic and narcissistic leadership has a negative impact on organizational health, particularly within Christian education, which should uphold the values of love, sacrifice, and service. Conversely, the implementation of conflict resolution based on Christian values can restore relationships, strengthen leadership integrity, and foster a healthy organizational culture. This study emphasizes the importance of transforming toxic and narcissistic leadership into leadership grounded in the values of Christ so that Christian educational institutions can remain consistent with their mission to educate, guide, and serve with love.

Citizenship rights and control of agrarian resources are two interrelated aspects in realizing social justice in Indonesia. In the context of an agrarian country experiencing pressures from economic globalization and resource liberalization, unequal access to land and other agrarian resources has become a pressing structural issue. This study aims to analyze how citizenship rights—as a form of state recognition of the existence and participation of citizens—correlate with the distribution and control of agrarian resources, particularly within the framework of social justice. The method used is a qualitative approach with literature studies and critical analysis of agrarian policies, citizenship regulations, and case studies of agrarian conflicts in several regions of Indonesia. The results show that the neglect of citizenship rights in agrarian policies contributes to the marginalization of vulnerable groups, such as indigenous communities and small farmers. Furthermore, land tenure policies that tend to favor corporations reinforce structural inequality. In conclusion, social justice in the control of agrarian resources requires the integration of substantive recognition of citizenship rights and agrarian reform oriented towards redistribution and participation. Policy reform that guarantees equal access to resources for all citizens is a primary prerequisite for inclusive and equitable development.    

This research aims to reinterpret the vision of the Protestant Batak Christian Huria (HKBP) "to be a blessing to the world" from the perspective of diakonia. This research uses a literature method with a qualitative approach through the study of theological literature, history, and church documents. The results of the study show that diakonia is the main entrance to the gospel message in the Land of Batak that brings social, educational, and health transformation to the community. However, in its development, HKBP's diakonic practice tends to be centered on church institutions and has not fully involved the active participation of congregation members. In addition, there is a tendency for service that is charitable without sustainable empowerment. Therefore, it is necessary to reinterpret the vision of HKBP by emphasizing the formation of a diaconal congregation, where all members of the congregation should be equipped and encouraged to be involved in the service of love in the community. Thus, diakonia is not only a program of the church, but a real and transformative practice of living of faith, so that the church truly becomes a blessing to the world. Furthermore, strengthening congregational capacity through contextual theological education and the development of local needs-based ministries is an important strategy in realizing a responsive and inclusive church. This approach is expected to be able to encourage the sustainability of diakonia services which not only has a short-term impact, but also builds independence and community welfare holistically.

In an effort to understand the nature of existence and the purpose of education, humans continually ponder fundamental questions about reality, knowledge, and life's values. Philosophy appears as a light that illuminates the darkness of these questions, offering a profound and systematic framework for thought. However, from an Islamic perspective, this search for truth does not rely solely on reason but is harmoniously integrated with Divine revelation. Islamic ontology places God as the source of all reality, its epistemology unites reason and revelation in the pursuit of knowledge, while axiology guides all educational actions and goals toward the formation of pious and noble individuals. This symbiotic integration gives rise to a transformative educational paradigm that not only fosters intellectual intelligence but also humanizes and purifies the soul, thus producing a holistic generation that contributes to the well-being of humanity. This paradigm aligns Islamic education with global realities, prioritizing a balance between worldly and otherworldly knowledge, and emphasizing moral and spiritual development as integral parts of a more holistic and sustainable education.

This study aims to analyze in depth the cultural construction of independence in Islamic boarding schools through the perspective of educational sociology. The main focus of this study is to explore how social structures, power relations between kyai and santri, and hidden curriculum mechanisms contribute significantly to the formation of santri's independent character. This research is motivated by the discrepancy between national educational goals and the reality of the crisis of independence often found in formal educational institutions. Using descriptive qualitative methods through a literature study and critical synthesis approach, this study examines the phenomenon of independence as a sociological product. The results of the study show that the independence of santri is not merely obedience to formal rules, but rather the result of the formation of internalized habitus through strict daily discipline and the accumulation of cultural capital transmitted by the figure of the kyai. These findings confirm that the charismatic relationship between kyai and santri serves as the main channel for transmitting the values of initiative and responsibility. Furthermore, the hidden curriculum manifested in the daily exemplary behavior of the kyai has proven to be more effective in shaping the autonomy of santri than conventional classroom instruction. The implications of this study confirm that the educational ecosystem model in Islamic boarding schools can serve as a strategic reference for modern educational institutions in overcoming the challenges of character degradation and independence among students in the contemporary era.
