. In the era of global competition, companies face challenges in maintaining their existence and enhancing competitiveness. This study aims to analyze the influence of quality control circles (QCC) and trust on achieving world-class status at Company X. The research employs a quantitative method using Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) with SmartPLS 3 software. Primary data were collected through online questionnaires involving 50 respondents, who are employees of Company X. The results show that QCC has a positive and significant influence on trust (T Statistic = 46.771, p = 0.000). However, quality control circles do not have a significant direct influence on world-class status (T Statistic = 0.248, p = 0.804). Furthermore, trust does not have a significant influence on achieving world-class status (T Statistic = 0.110, p = 0.913) and does not act as an effective mediator in the relationship between QCC and world-class status (T Statistic = 0.107, p = 0.915). In conclusion, although quality control circles can enhance employees' trust in management, trust alone is insufficient to drive the achievement of world-class status.

Inflation is a significant economic challenge in Indonesia, affecting price stability and people's purchasing power. In a sharia economic perspective, inflation is not only seen as an economic phenomenon, but also involves moral and social aspects. This article discusses the role of sharia monetary instruments in controlling inflation in Indonesia, highlighting the principles of fairness and transparency. Instruments such as Bank Indonesia Sharia Certificates (SBIS), Bank Indonesia Sharia Savings Facilities (FASBIS), and Sharia Open Market Operations (OPT) have been implemented to regulate the amount of money in circulation and maintain economic stability. Although their contribution to controlling inflation is still limited, the potential of sharia instruments can be strengthened through increasing market understanding, education and collaboration between the government, Bank Indonesia and sharia financial institutions. With more optimal implementation, sharia monetary instruments can create a stable, fair and sustainable economic system for the Indonesian people.

Giving thanks in success is a natural and important part of a believer's life, especially when life is filled with abundance. However, the ability to remain grateful in the midst of failures and difficulties is a challenge in itself that tests the firmness of faith. In his letter to the Philippians, the Apostle Paul provides an example and an important message on how to remain grateful to God, even when he himself faced prison and suffering. This paper aims to explore the deep meaning of thanksgiving based on Philippians and how it can be applied in the daily lives of believers. Using a descriptive approach and relying on the Bible as the main source, this study reveals that Paul taught four main dimensions of thanksgiving: thanksgiving in suffering, thanksgiving in service, thanksgiving for Christ, and thanksgiving for God's blessings. True thanksgiving comes from a deep relationship with God, which enables one to remain steadfast in the midst of life's challenges. These principles become relevant to help believers live life with a grateful heart, both in easy and difficult circumstances, and find true peace in their faith journey.

Examining how the Islamic monetary system uses money to build a stable and just economy is the aim of this study. Money is not to be hoarded or handled like a commodity, according to the Islamic monetary system, which views it as a public good and flow notion that functions as a medium of exchange and a unit of value. In Islam, money serves primarily as a medium of exchange, a standard of payment, and a gauge of value, speculation and wealth hoarding are prohibited. In contrast to traditional interest-based systems, the Islamic monetary system places a higher priority on mechanisms that allow for profit-and-loss sharing. Because hoarding money can slow down economic turnover and produce stagnation, it is forbidden in Islam. This is because money must continue to circulate in order to preserve economic viability.  QS Al-Hasyr: 7 and QS At-Taubah: 34–35, which explain hoarding of wealth and promote the use of money for the good of society, both highlight this principle of wealth sharing. Using data from pertinent literature and journals, this study employs a qualitative methodology based on literature reviews. Furthermore, This study is expected to provide the groundwork for a more effective sharia monetary policy that encourages equitable and balanced economic growth.

This research analyzes legal smuggling related to the principle of freedom of contract reflected in Book III of the Civil Code. The parties are free to draft any clause based on an agreement. However, it cannot be denied that the principle of freedom of contract is often misused to commit legal smuggling in agreements, which makes the deal seem legally valid, even though there are mixed legal provisions, thus causing irregularities and losses for parties who are in a weak position. This research method uses normative legal research by examining library materials with legal materials, such as laws and regulations, books, legal journals, and legal articles. The results of this study indicate that the actions taken by the dominant party, in this case, fulfill the elements of legal smuggling which also intersect with the act of abuse of circumstances, thus forming a tort committed by the dominant party in the agreement.

Polygamy in Islam is regulated with clear provisions based on the Qur'an and Hadith. Surah Al-Nisa/4:3 permits polygamy with a maximum of four wives, under the primary condition of fairness in fulfilling material needs such as food, clothing, and shelter. However, Surah Al-Nisa/4:129 emphasizes that emotional fairness, such as inclinations of the heart, cannot be mandated as it is beyond human capability. The Prophet Muhammad SAW exemplified how to practice polygamy while adhering to the principle of justice emphasized in Islam. Historically, the regulation of polygamy aimed to address social crises in early Islamic society, such as the high number of widows and orphans due to war. Polygamy was viewed as a social solution to protect the rights of women and children, albeit under strict conditions. In conclusion, polygamy in Islam is an option permitted only in specific circumstances, not an obligation or outright recommendation, with a strong emphasis on justice and the welfare of all parties involved.

This study aims to determine the effect of fintech, the amount of money in circulation, interest rates and economic growth on the analysis of digital economic trends on monetary policy in Indonesia. There are four variables in this study, namely fintech, the amount of money in circulation, interest rates and economic growth. The analysis method used is Vector Autoregression with the Impluse Response Function test or abbreviated as IRF and the Forecast Error Variance Decomposition test commonly abbreviated as FEVD, stationarity test, cointegration test, lag structure stability test and optimal lag length test. There is a contribution from each variable to the variable itself and other variables, according to the results of the Vector Autoregression study with a lag basis of 2. In addition, the results of the Vector Autoregression analysis show that the past variable (t-1) contributes to the current variable both to the variable itself and to other variables. The results of the analysis show that there is a reciprocal relationship between the variables. By using response function analysis, we can see if there is a response from other variables to changes in one variable in the short, medium, or long term. In addition, we know that the stability of all variables is formed in the short, medium, and long term. According to the Variance Decomposition Analysis, factors such as Fintech and Money Supply contribute the most to the variable itself. However, other variables that have the greatest influence on the variable itself and are supported by other variables in the short, medium, and long term are economic growth and interest rates are most influenced by Fintech.

In writing this journal, I as the writer want to describe and present topics regarding issues that are often hot and often become conflicts in our country, the Republic of Indonesia, regarding the border area at the tip of the northern region of Indonesia or what is widely known to the general public is called "Indonesia's outermost islands" or what many of us know as Natuna Island, which is directly adjacent to neighboring countries and directly borders the South China Sea, this is also what often triggers conflicts over state regulations over maritime territories. As an example, we most often know about the number of fishermen from neighboring countries such as Vietnam, the Philippines and Myanmar who smuggle into the seas of the Republic of Indonesia illegally and without official permission and then take the wealth and marine products that Indonesia itself owns. This also causes things such as smuggling of goods and prohibited items to pass through urgent areas such as Natuna Island. The purpose of writing this journal is to describe the steps and efforts taken by the Indonesian state to defend and protect its territorial sovereignty and rights as they should. Based on several articles and news circulating in the Indonesian mass media regarding conflicts and problems that often occur and the most hot news is regarding Indonesia's sea which is considered strategic and has several times wanted to be claimed by neighboring countries.

Granting Justice Collaborator (JC) status to perpetrators of criminal acts of corruption is one of the law enforcement strategies aimed at uncovering a wider network of corruption crimes. However, its implementation raises various problems, both in terms of law, morals and justice. This research aims to analyze the regulations underlying the granting of JC status, the criteria for its application, and the challenges that arise in practice. This study uses a juridical-normative method with an analytical approach to statutory regulations, court decisions and legal literature. The research results show that the granting of JC status is often not transparent, giving rise to controversy regarding the integrity of its implementation. Apart from that, there is a discrepancy between the ideal JC criteria as regulated in the Supreme Court Circular Letter (SEMA) Number 4 of 2011 and the practice of granting JC status. This has an impact on public trust in the criminal justice system. For this reason, it is necessary to strengthen regulations and tighter supervision so that granting JC status is in accordance with the principles of justice, transparency and accountability.
