Business entities often face bankruptcy risks due to various factors, including accounting errors, limited experience, or small-cap transactions. The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated financial conditions for many companies, such as PT Garuda Indonesia (Persero) Tbk., which experienced a significant revenue decline. Additionally, individuals may face bankruptcy due to reasons like job termination or business failures. The primary cause of bankruptcy lies in the imbalance between debt and income, often worsened by poor financial planning. Government regulations can help mitigate bankruptcy risks, such as through health insurance and credit restrictions. The bankruptcy process aims to provide fair resolutions between debtors and creditors while safeguarding public interests. Bankruptcy can also offer debtors the opportunity to restructure their debt, maintain economic stability, and prevent social loss. In practice, bankruptcy involves the management of the debtor's assets by a trustee and the proportional distribution of proceeds to creditors. The application of freedom of contract and legal certainty principles in debtor-creditor relationships is crucial to ensuring a transparent, efficient, and equitable process.

Indonesia's tax ratio remains below the 15 percent threshold recommended by the International Monetary Fund (IMF), reflecting a significant gap in tax revenue collection. This low ratio may indicate the presence of aggressive tax planning strategies, including tax avoidance practices, particularly among multinational enterprises. This study aims to empirically examine the relationship between multinationality, transfer pricing aggressiveness, and the use of tax havens on tax avoidance. The research focuses on manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during the period 2019–2023. A total of 64 companies were selected as samples through purposive sampling based on specific criteria, including the availability of relevant financial data and disclosure of international operations. The variables analyzed include the degree of multinationality, transfer pricing aggressiveness as proxied by related party transactions, and involvement with tax haven jurisdictions. The dependent variable, tax avoidance, is measured using the effective tax rate (ETR) approach. Data were processed and analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis with the aid of STATA version 17. The findings of the study reveal that multinationality and transfer pricing aggressiveness do not have a significant relationship with tax avoidance. In contrast, the use of tax haven countries is positively associated with tax avoidance, suggesting that firms utilizing tax havens are more likely to engage in practices that reduce their tax liabilities. These results have implications for tax authorities in identifying and addressing high-risk corporate behaviors related to offshore financial structures. The study contributes to the literature on international taxation by providing empirical evidence from a developing country context.

This study aims to analyze the practice of price determination in the buffet system without price labels at Café Santiniketan, Pondok Modern Darussalam Gontor, Campus 4 Banyuwangi, from the perspective of mashlahah mursalah and Islamic economic principles. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques including observation, in-depth interviews, Focus Group Discussions (FGD), and documentation. The data were analyzed using an interactive analysis model consisting of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results indicate that Café Santiniketan has implemented the principles of fairness, honesty, and transparency in its transaction system. Payments are made before consumption to avoid elements of uncertainty (gharar), while pricing is based on the types of food selected and mutual consent (al-ridha). The buffet system provides flexibility for consumers to choose menu portions according to their needs. This practice aligns with the concept of mashlahah mursalah because it provides benefits for public interest and supports the economic independence of the pesantren community. However, challenges arise regarding the inconsistency between price and portion size, which has led to criticism from some customers. This condition highlights the need to improve price clarity to ensure compliance with the principle of fairness in Islamic economics. Overall, the implementation of the buying and selling system at Café Santiniketan has demonstrated good sharia-based economic practices, yet requires ongoing evaluation and development to ensure trust and customer satisfaction.

The rapid growth of social media as a primary channel for information dissemination has triggered a significant surge in the distribution of hoaxes, potentially damaging social order, instigating mass disinformation, and threatening national security. This research aims to design an intelligent algorithm for hoax detection by integrating a critical thinking approach into Natural Language Processing (NLP)-based text processing. The algorithmic model is built using a combination of linguistic features, argument logic, and cognitive indicators such as the detection of unsubstantiated claims, identification of source bias, and evidence testing. To ensure accountability and transparency of the system, an Explainable AI (XAI) approach is applied so that classification results can be understood by non-technical users. The research results show that integrating critical thinking significantly improves detection accuracy to 93.1%, with an increase in precision and recall for detecting hoaxes based on emotional narratives. Beyond technical aspects, this model aligns with the mandate of Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 11 of 2008 concerning Information and Electronic Transactions (ITE Law), particularly Article 28 paragraph (1), which prohibits the dissemination of false and misleading news that harms the public. Therefore, this system is not only scientifically relevant but also supports law enforcement and strengthens digital literacy in the post-truth era. These findings are expected to be a strategic contribution to the development of an ethical, critical, and responsible digital ecosystem.

The study of usury in Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh) of muamalah maliyah is crucial as it helps determine whether a transaction is permissible in Islamic business and finance. If a transaction involves elements of usury, it is considered prohibited (haram) under Islamic law. This research uses a library research method, analyzing secondary data from books, articles, and journals to review the dangers of riba from an economic perspective. The study reveals that riba occurs in sale and purchase transactions when goods or prices are manipulated, leading to unfair advantages for one party. Riba includes both usury fadl (excessive goods) and nasi'ah (delayed payment) and is prohibited in Islam, as stated in the Qur'an, Sunnah, and Ijma'. Allah's prohibition of usury aims to protect the welfare of society, and violating this law brings harm not only in this world but also in the afterlife. The widespread practice of usury contributes to economic inequality, inflation, economic stagnation, crises, and increasing debt burdens.
