Competition in acquiring young talent is increasing, so employer branding strategies  are an important element for organizations in attracting the interest of generation Z. As digital natives, generation Z has different characteristics and expectations, including the need for career development, work-life balance, organizational reputation, and an inclusive work culture (Smith, 2022). In the midst of global competition and the increasingly dominant use of digital technology in the job search process, companies are required to build an authentic and relevant employer image in order to increase the attractiveness of their talents. Previous research has shown that employer branding has a significant effect on the interest in applying for jobs for generation Z, either directly or through mediating factors such as organizational reputation and person-organization fit (Backhaus & Tikoo, 2004; Jiang & Iles, 2024). Based on this phenomenon, this study aims to analyze the influence of employer branding on the interest in applying for jobs of Generation Z and examine the role of organizational reputation and person organization fit as a mediation variable. The study used a quantitative approach with a survey method of Generation Z respondents who were looking for a job, then analyzed using multiple regression and bootstrapping mediation test. The results of the study show that employer branding has a positive and significant effect on the interest in applying for jobs for generation Z, and this influence is stronger when the reputation of the organization and the person-organization fit plays the role of mediator. These findings affirm the importance for organizations to build a positive image, provide an inclusive work culture, and highlight the value match between companies and applicants in order to be able to compete in the fight for young talent in the digital era.

This community service activity was conducted at PT Danny Karya Sukses, a newly established distribution company specializing in stainless steel kitchen equipment in Batam City, which faced challenges in managing inventory due to the use of manual recording systems and the absence of standardized operational procedures. These conditions led to a high risk of data inaccuracies, stock discrepancies, and inefficiencies in operational coordination. The objective of this program was to design and implement a standardized Inventory Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) integrated with a digital inventory management system using Zoho Inventory. The methods employed included interviews, field observations, documentation studies, and literature reviews to identify operational needs and design appropriate solutions. The implementation process involved SOP development, system configuration, employee training, and operational assistance. The findings indicate significant improvements in inventory accuracy, real-time stock monitoring, work efficiency, and interdepartmental coordination between administration, warehouse, and sales divisions. The adoption of Zoho Inventory reduced manual errors, accelerated stock reporting, and strengthened internal control mechanisms. The implications of this activity demonstrate that the integration of digital inventory systems with clear SOPs can serve as a strong operational foundation for newly established distribution companies, supporting sustainable business growth and enhanced competitiveness.

Non-Cash Food Assistance (BPNT) is a government assistance program aimed at poor or underprivileged communities, distributed monthly through electronic accounts and used specifically to purchase basic necessities at designated E-Warong stores. However, in reality, the implementation of the BPNT program in the field still faces comprehensive challenges, such as issues related to targeting inaccuracy and the quality of food obtained by KPM not always meeting standards. The purpose of this study is to explore the evaluation of the Non-Cash Food Assistance (BPNT) program policy through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach, so that researchers can trace various empirical findings regarding the implementation of the Non-Cash Food Assistance program policy in several regions. The policy evaluation model used is William N Dunn's model, which includes six indicators, namely effectiveness, efficiency, adequacy, equity, responsiveness, and accuracy. The results of this study are expected to provide a comprehensive and in-depth picture of the phenomenon being studied in an objective and systematic manner, and can be used as a reference for government agencies in evaluating and optimizing the implementation of the BPNT program policy so that it becomes a more effective and sustainable social assistance program.

Maqasid sharia is the foundation of Islamic law that needs to be reconstructed to remain relevant to the evolving times. Globalization, technological advancements, and social changes present new challenges, such as bioethics, digital economy, and social justice, which require a response from Islamic law. This article aims to analyze the reconstruction of maqasid sharia and its impact on the development of contemporary Islamic law. The research uses a qualitative approach through literature review and normative analysis. The findings show that the reconstruction of maqasid sharia should be carried out through a contextual reinterpretation of the objectives of sharia. This approach opens up broader space for ijtihad, ensuring that Islamic law remains relevant in addressing new issues. The reconstruction aims not only to align Islamic law with contemporary developments but also to strengthen its role in achieving justice and providing ethical solutions that meet the needs of modern society. Thus, Islamic law can continue to contribute to the advancement and well-being of humanity amidst global challenges.

Pancasila, as the foundation of the state and the nation's philosophy of life, plays a crucial role in building the character of the younger generation, including students as agents of change. This study aims to analyze how the application of Pancasila values ​​is manifested in student behavior on campus. The method used is library research, examining various journal articles, books, and academic references related to student behavior and the practice of Pancasila values. The research findings reveal that students generally have a good understanding of Pancasila values. Values ​​such as respect, mutual assistance, equality, religiousness, and unity are recognized and accepted as guidelines for behavior on campus. However, the level of implementation is still not optimal and tends to vary between universities. Therefore, universities need to make continuous efforts to instill Pancasila values ​​through academic and non-academic activities that can strengthen students' understanding of Pancasila and strengthen its application in campus life to be more optimal and equitable.

The phenomenon of the economic spending patterns of FISH students at Jakarta State University living in the Daksinapati, Pemuda, and Rawamangun Muka areas reflects the socio-economic dynamics of out-of-town students adjusting to independent living in a big city. This study employed a qualitative descriptive approach through in-depth interviews with five informants living in three different boarding houses. The analysis was conducted using Mark Granovetter's (1985) Embeddedness theory, which emphasizes that individual economic actions are always embedded within social networks, norms, and interpersonal relationships that shape their consumption decisions. The results show that student spending is influenced not only by primary needs such as rent, food, and transportation, but also by social relationships within the boarding house and campus, which give rise to latent expenditures such as hanging out, pooling activities, organizational solidarity, and peer lifestyle demands. Thus, the consumption patterns of out-of-town students are not merely individual economic activities but also social mechanisms reflecting the process of adaptation, solidarity, and efforts to maintain integration within the social environment they inhabit.

The phenomenon of masculine men has become a new strategy in the modern beauty product marketing industry. Changing social and cultural values about gender identity have led to the emergence of male images with soft, stylish, and aesthetic characteristics in various promotional campaigns. This study aims to analyze how the phenomenon of masculine men is used as a marketing communication strategy, as well as its impact on consumer perception. The method used is a literature study with a descriptive qualitative approach, which examines contemporary communication theory, gender theory, and modern marketing concepts. The findings suggest that the use of masculine male figures in beauty product advertising can expand market segmentation, attract cross-gender audiences, and create an inclusive brand image that aligns with current social trends. However, this strategy also raises debates about the limitations of masculinity and the social construction of beauty. Therefore, the phenomenon of masculine men can be understood as a form of adaptation of marketing communication to changes in cultural and gender values in contemporary society In addition, the findings of this study are expected to make a theoretical contribution to the study of marketing communication and gender studies, as well as become a practical reference for beauty industry players in designing promotional strategies that are sensitive to social dynamics, cultural values, and the increasingly diverse preferences of modern consumers.

The tradition of pregnant women hiding under the bed during a lunar eclipse is still found in some Muslim communities in Indonesia. This tradition is believed to serve as a means of protecting the fetus from the negative impacts of the eclipse, both physically and metaphysically. This study aims to examine this tradition from the perspective of Living Hadith, namely how the Prophet’s hadiths are understood, interpreted, and practiced within the social life of the community. This research employs a qualitative approach using field study methods, including observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The findings indicate that this tradition has no direct textual basis in the Prophet’s hadiths; rather, it has developed through processes of religious interpretation, local myths, and traditional knowledge that are associated with Islamic teachings. The community often relates this tradition to hadiths concerning eclipses as signs of God’s power and as moments to increase supplication and prayer. This tradition reflects a form of acculturation between Islamic values and local culture, while also demonstrating how hadiths are “lived” within the collective consciousness of the Muslim community, even when such practices do not fully align with the textual meanings of the hadiths.  

This study analyses the synergy between teachers and parents through a home visit programme at Jenu Islamic Junior High School in supporting student learning assistance. A descriptive qualitative method was applied with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation studies conducted over three months. The results show that the home visit programme, conducted regularly every three months, has succeeded in building effective collaboration between educators and parents in supporting student learning. Home visits not only strengthen the emotional bond between the school and families, but also enable teachers to understand the learning conditions of students directly in their home environment. This programme has had a significant impact on improving student motivation, attendance, and discipline. Despite facing obstacles such as scheduling difficulties and ethical challenges for female teachers in visiting the homes of male parents, the personalised approach applied in this programme proved to be capable of creating a more inclusive and sustainable educational environment. The home visit programme has become an effective mentoring model for improving the holistic academic and character development of students based on Islamic values.

This study aims to analyze the influence of coastal cultural tradition-based learning media in the implementation of the Pancasila Student Profile Strengthening Project (P5) on students' learning interest at MTsN 3 Tuban. The background of this research is the lack of integration of coastal local wisdom in learning while the characteristics of madrasah students require a contextual approach that connects material with the surrounding environment. The study uses a quantitative approach with a pretest -experimental design involving 36 eighth-grade students as samples. The research instrument is a learning interest questionnaire with a Likert scale covering aspects of attention, interest, involvement, and continuous desire. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and normalized gain test. The results showed a significant increase in students' learning interest with an average score increasing from 68.75 in the pre-test to 82.94 in the post-test with an N-Gain value of 0.45 in the medium category. These findings identify that coastal cultural tradition-based learning media have a positive impact on increasing students' learning interest through contextual and meaningful learning.

The rapid development of digital technology, particularly Artificial Intelligence (AI), has significantly influenced educational practices, including Islamic Religious Education (PAI). A major issue lies in how AI can be implemented effectively without undermining the spiritual, moral, and character-building values that are central to Islamic education. This study aims to examine the implementation of Artificial Intelligence in Islamic Religious Education learning in the era of school digitalization, focusing on its concepts, forms of application, teachers’ roles, benefits, as well as challenges and ethical considerations. This research employs a qualitative library research method. Data were collected from reputable academic journals, scholarly books, proceedings, and relevant official documents, and analyzed using content analysis techniques through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that AI has substantial potential to enhance PAI learning through personalized learning systems, adaptive learning media, and data-driven assessments. However, its implementation requires strong teacher supervision, adequate digital literacy, and alignment with Islamic values to prevent the marginalization of teachers’ moral and spiritual roles. In conclusion, Artificial Intelligence serves as a supportive tool in Islamic Religious Education and must be applied wisely, ethically, and in accordance with the fundamental objectives of Islamic education.

This study discusses the development of narratives on Islamic morality and history through interactive audiovisual media as an effort to address the learning needs of the digital generation that demands high engagement, engaging visualizations, and immersive learning experiences. Based on library research methods, this study examines literature on narrative pedagogy, Islamic historiography, and digital learning technology to formulate a narrative model that integrates cognitive, affective, and interactive aspects. The review shows that although audiovisual media and technologies such as AR/VR have been proven to increase student motivation and understanding, studies specifically combining narratives on morality, Islamic history, and interactivity design are still limited. This study proposes a participatory narrative model based on interactive audiovisual through choice-based storytelling, reflective quizzes, and micro-scenarios that can strengthen historical understanding while internalizing moral values. The analysis shows that interactive media serves not only as a means of conveying information but also as a space for moral experience that allows students to build empathy, reflection, and value awareness. This study provides theoretical contributions to the development of narrative pedagogy in Islamic education and provides practical recommendations regarding media design, teacher readiness, and infrastructure support for the implementation of more effective and meaningful digital learning.

Higher education in Indonesia has undergone significant transformation due to the implementation of a capitalist system that emphasizes profit orientation and business logic. The commercialization of educational institutions has resulted in limited access, particularly for low- and middle-income communities, and has led to social inequality and a shift in the educational paradigm toward commodification. This study uses qualitative methods with literature review to examine the impact of capitalism and commercialization in higher education. The findings reveal an increase in tuition fees, the commodification of knowledge, and the privatization of universities, which reduce access and lower the quality of education. Criticism of educational capitalism emphasizes the importance of social and spiritual values and equal access. Therefore, it is recommended that policy reforms balance the roles of the state and the private sector, strengthen regulations, and expand access to fair and quality education for the sake of higher education that is oriented towards social welfare and sustainability.

Christian transformational leadership offers an ideal model for church organizational development, but its implementation in the Indonesian context faces complex structural and cultural barriers. This study aims to identify and analyze the structural and cultural barriers that influence the implementation of Christian transformational leadership in Indonesian church organizations, analyze the mechanisms of organizational resistance and their implications for leadership effectiveness, and formulate adaptive strategies relevant to local dynamics. The method used is a qualitative literature study with a systematic literature review approach of the latest academic sources. The results show that structural barriers include limited human resource capacity, weak organizational infrastructure, and immature management systems, while cultural barriers are rooted in strong local traditions and resistance to new leadership models. Organizational resistance arises through mutually reinforcing interpersonal, organizational, and cultural mechanisms, resulting in decreased congregation participation and empowerment effectiveness. Effective adaptive strategies include participatory dialogue communication, continuous leadership development, acculturation of leadership to local values, and the formation of an inclusive organizational culture. This study concludes that the sustainable implementation of Christian transformational leadership requires a holistic approach that integrates changes in structure, culture, and interpersonal relationships while remaining sensitive to the local context and cultural wisdom.

This study aims to develop a Christian Religious Education learning model based on Tongkonan values to strengthen the spiritual identity of Toraja youth amid identity crisis caused by globalization. Using qualitative method with literature study, this research analyzes the integration of Tongkonan philosophical values such as karapasan, kasiuluran, and kasianggaran with theological principles of Christian Religious Education through contextual learning approach and narrative theology. The results show that Tongkonan values have strong resonance with Christian teachings and can be integrated into a learning model comprising five components: theological-cultural foundation, contextual curriculum design, experience-based learning strategies, the role of three educational centers, and authentic evaluation. Implementation of this model has significant implications for strengthening spiritual identity through formation of solid self-identity, authentic moral value internalization, and development of spiritual resilience. This Tongkonan values-based Christian Religious Education learning model bridges the dichotomy between modernity and tradition, making Christian Religious Education more relevant and meaningful for Toraja students by equipping them with a holistic identity as Toraja people who are also followers of Christ.  

This research is motivated by the gap between the standard prayer readings of Khoiru Ummah Islamic Junior High School Malang and the diverse practices of students due to differences in background. The absence of a specific time allocation for talaqqi becomes a challenge in standardization efforts. The purpose of this study is to describe the implementation steps of the guided habituation method through the Jahr technique (loud reading) in congregational Dhuha Prayer as a pedagogical solution. This study uses a qualitative research approach with a case study design. Data were collected through non-participant observation, in-depth interviews with the Principal and Islamic Education Teachers, and Focus Group Discussions (FGD) with students, and document analysis. The results show that the implementation of this method follows the habit loop flow (trigger, routine, reward) from a behavioristic perspective. The Jahr technique functions as an effective auditory stimulus (talaqqi) in helping students memorize standard readings, supported by the fiqh-pedagogical justification of Jahr li at-ta'lim. Despite its effectiveness, challenges were identified in the consistency of student responses (passive) and the lack of systematic post-prayer reinforcement. It was concluded that the guided habituation method through the Dhuha Prayer Session is a practical pedagogical model that can be implemented to standardize practical worship in schools.

The Aceh Sharia Court is a special judicial institution formed based on the specifics of Aceh as regulated in the Aceh Government Law. The existence of the Aceh Sharia Court has juridical consequences for the exercise of judicial power which was previously exercised by the Religious Courts. This research aims to analyze the position of the Aceh Sharia Court in the national justice system and examine its power in replacing the authority of the Religious Courts in handling cases related to Islamic law. The research method used is normative legal research. The research results show that the Aceh Sharia Court has an equal position to the Religious Court in the judicial power structure, but has broader authority because it covers Islamic civil cases, sharia criminal (jinayat), and sharia procedural law. This transfer of authority does not eliminate the existence of the Religious Courts nationally, but creates a special justice system that only applies in the Aceh region. The position of the Aceh Sharia Court strengthens the implementation of Islamic law within the framework of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia and remains under the guidance of the Supreme Court.

The Aceh Sharia Court has special authority to enforce Qanun Jinayat as part of the implementation of Aceh's privileges in the legal field. This research aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Sharia Court in enforcing Qanun Jinayat in Aceh. The research method used is normative legal research with a statutory regulatory approach and a conceptual approach. The research results show that the Sharia Court has carried out judicial functions in accordance with its authority in examining, adjudicating and deciding jinayat cases. The research results reveal that the effectiveness of enforcing Qanun Jinayat still faces a number of obstacles, including limited resources of the judicial apparatus, differences in public understanding of jinayat law, and coordination between law enforcers that is not yet optimal. This research concludes that the Sharia Court functions in enforcing Qanun Jinayat, but it requires improving institutional quality and legal system support so that the objectives of enforcing sharia law can be achieved optimally.

One type of contract that is very important for the operations of Islamic financial institutions, especially for benefit-based services such as multi-service financing and gold pawnbroking. However, in its application, several problems continue to arise. The most prominent is the incompatibility with Financial Accounting Standards (PSAK) 107 and other Islamic accounting standards in terms of recording and disclosing ijarah transactions. This condition can cause the financial statements of Islamic financial institutions to be less transparent and accountable. Therefore, this study aims to examine how ijarah contracts are used and to what extent the application of ijarah accounting helps Islamic financial institutions become more financially transparent. The research was conducted by reviewing relevant literature, including the provisions of the Accounting and Auditing Organization for Islamic Financial Institutions (AAOIFI), PSAK 107, and the fatwa of the Indonesian Ulema Council's National Sharia Board (DSN-MUI). The study shows that the proper use of ijarah accounting, which includes the recognition of ujrah income, the recording of asset gains, and the consistent disclosure of costs, can increase information transparency and stakeholder confidence in financial reports.

MSMEs in Ciawi village generally conduct transactions in their business only relying on simple work and through direct buying and selling transactions and there is no recording system that complies with bookkeeping regulations in accounting or only debit credit, so it is very difficult to know the details of cash in and cash out.
