This study aims to analyze the role and effectiveness of Islamic monetary policy in Indonesia in facing digital transformation, particularly through the instruments of Sertifikat Bank Indonesia Syariah (SBIS) and Sukuk Bank Indonesia (SukBI). The digital transformation of the national financial system demands an adaptive monetary policy that remains grounded in the principles of maqashid shariah. In the context of Islamic economics, monetary policy not only functions to regulate the money supply and maintain price stability but also ensures the realization of justice and economic welfare. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach, using literature-based data collection from official publications of Bank Indonesia, the Financial Services Authority (OJK), and relevant academic references on Islamic monetary policy. The analysis adopts an inductive approach by examining the roles of SBIS and Sukuk BI in supporting the stability of the Islamic financial system and their alignment with maqashid shariah values such as al-‘adl (justice), al-wudhuh (transparency), and ar-rawaj (circulation of wealth). The findings indicate that digitalization has positively impacted the efficiency and transparency of Islamic monetary instruments, where SBIS plays a role in regulating the liquidity of Islamic banks in a non-usurious manner, while Sukuk BI serves as an essential instrument in maintaining national economic stability. Nevertheless, challenges remain, including the limited digital infrastructure for Islamic finance and the need to strengthen regulations to ensure that digital monetary systems remain consistent with sharia principles.

Perkembangan teknologi telah mengalami kemajuan yang luar biasa, terutama dalam bidang Kecerdasan Buatan (Artificial Intelligence/AI) yang telah merevolusi berbagai sektor seperti pendidikan, hiburan, bisnis, dan komunikasi. Namun, di balik berbagai manfaat tersebut, muncul pula risiko serius, salah satunya adalah penyalahgunaan teknologi deepfake dalam pembuatan konten digital yang ilegal maupun tidak etis. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji penyalahgunaan AI dengan fokus pada motif, penyebab, langkah pencegahan, serta kasus-kasus yang terjadi di Indonesia. Metode yang digunakan adalah kajian pustaka dengan analisis kualitatif deskriptif, menggunakan data sekunder dari jurnal ilmiah, kerangka hukum seperti Undang-Undang ITE, Undang-Undang Pornografi, dan Undang-Undang Perlindungan Data Pribadi (PDP), serta laporan kasus yang beredar di media sosial dan berita daring. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa motif utama pelaku dalam penyalahgunaan deepfake meliputi keuntungan finansial, balas dendam pribadi, propaganda politik, dan eksploitasi seksual.

This study provides recommendations to increase the intensity of socialization and training on the use of the SiPraja application, as well as optimize the role of RT/RW as community assistance agents.

The role of Darul Falah Islamic Boarding School's policy in instilling an attitude of tasamuh (tolerance) among students amidst the challenges of the digital era is the subject of this research. In addition to offering many conveniences, the digital era has also become a tool for spreading exclusive ideologies, hoaxes, and hatred that threaten tolerance. As an Islamic educational institution, Islamic boarding schools have a responsibility to protect their students. This research collected data through in-depth interviews with Islamic boarding school leaders, ustadz, and students, as well as observation activities and analysis of policy documents (qanun). A qualitative approach, case study method, was used. The results of the study show that Darul Falah Islamic Boarding School implements three levels of policy: (1) Curricular Policy that focuses on the study of moderate yellow books (fiqh muqaranah and tasawuf) as the theological basis of tasamuh; (2) Student Policy that encourages discussion and interaction (such as bahtsul masail) with strict sanctions for bullying; and (3) Digital Adaptive Policy that establishes strict regulations on the use of gadgets and the "Ngaji Cyber-Akhlaq" program.

Increasing rural communities’ understanding of national health policy and system is a strategic step toward improving access and equality in Indonesia’s health services. Health policy education plays a crucial role in ensuring that citizens understand their rights and responsibilities as National Health Insurance (JKN) participants, as well as the mechanisms of available healthcare services. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of health policy education in rural areas, focusing on the improvement of health literacy, community participation in decision-making, and the role of health workers as facilitators. A descriptive quantitative method was applied through surveys and field observations in three villages of Sleman Regency, Yogyakarta. The findings reveal that 82% of respondents understood their JKN rights after the education program, compared to only 45% before. Major challenges included limited information media and low digital literacy among villagers. The study concludes that community education on national health policy effectively enhances public awareness of universal health coverage but requires continuous support through collaboration between local government, healthcare providers, and educational institutions.
