This community service program aims to empower students. The lack of digital business literacy and knowledge about Islamic entrepreneurship in Islamic-based schools, as well as the application of sharia business principles, are the main drivers of this program. The activity implementation technique uses the Participatory Action Research (PAR) methodology. Problem identification, needs analysis, preparation of materials and instruments, pre-testing, training in Islamic business ethics and entrepreneurship theory, digital business practices, mentoring, post-testing, and program evaluation are some of the steps included in the activity. A total of 60 12th-grade students and ten instructors participated in this activity. The results showed that students' knowledge of sharia-based digital business, digital marketing skills, and entrepreneurial drive all increased. Student interest in starting a business increased by 78%, and participants' understanding of digital literacy increased by 85%. Furthermore, the program successfully instilled the ideals of Islamic entrepreneurship, such as accountability, honesty, and trustworthiness, as well as the prohibition of usury in digital business operations. In addition to encouraging the development of an Islamic digital business community within the educational environment, this community service program helps students develop personalities with noble morals, creativity, and adaptability.

Kampar Kiri District faces challenges in the form of low public understanding of anti-corruption values, which has an impact on hampering the development of the people's economy and transparency of local governance. This Community Service (PKM) activity aims to increase critical public awareness and internalize the value of integrity in sharia-based economic activities. The implementation method is carried out through a participatory approach that includes socialization, education on moral-religious values, and interactive discussions. The activity was held on August 21, 2025, at the KUD Lipat Kain Hall, attended by 100 participants, and fully supported by the Kampar Regency Education Office. The results of the service show a positive response from the local government and high enthusiasm from the younger generation in maintaining integrity. Through the involvement of expert speakers from the Riau Anti-Corruption Counseling Forum and the Kampar Inspectorate, the community gained a comprehensive understanding of the dangers of corruption from a legal and religious perspective. This program has succeeded in laying the foundation for the formation of an honest, transparent, and accountable social ecosystem to realize a blessed community economy.

This article examines the implementation of a sharia financial literacy education program aimed at supporting community economic development at the Balai Perkumpulan Sub PPKBD Tambakkemerakan, Krian, driven by the persistently low level of community literacy regarding Islamic finance concepts and practices, which has the potential to impede the optimization of Islamic principles-based economic well-being. Employing the Participatory Action Research (PAR) method, this study engaged community members actively throughout the processes of problem identification, program implementation, and evaluation, with activities conducted through socialization sessions, interactive discussions, and practical demonstrations of sharia-compliant financial management in real-life contexts. The findings indicate a measurable improvement in community comprehension of Islamic finance fundamentals, including the prohibition of riba (usury/interest), the importance of financial planning, and the utilization of sharia-compliant financial institutions, alongside observable attitudinal shifts toward more prudent and Islamically normative financial behavior. These outcomes suggest that the program contributes positively to fostering community economic independence and strengthening the application of Islamic economic principles at the household level.

Indonesia is a country rich in cultural diversity, one of which is Javanese culture which is full of philosophical values ​​and symbolic meanings in every practice, including in the traditional wedding procession. One of the important rituals in Javanese traditional weddings is the Panggih Manten ritual, which represents the meeting between the bride and groom with various symbols of life, hope and blessings. Along with the development of the times and the flow of modernization, people's understanding of the philosophical meaning of the ritual has shifted. Some people still carry out this tradition as a hereditary custom without understanding the values ​​contained in it, even giving rise to debates regarding its suitability with Islamic teachings. This study aims to analyze the practice of the Panggih Manten ritual in Javanese traditional wedding traditions and review its suitability with the 'Urf argument in Islamic law. The research method used is qualitative with a juridical-normative approach, while the research location was carried out in Pengkol village, Mantingan District. The results of the study show that the Panggih Manten ritual is basically acceptable in Islamic law as long as it does not conflict with the principles of sharia. Based on analysis from the perspective of al-'urf, several aspects of the Panggih Manten ritual, such as muter asem (the act of making offerings), and the belief in disasters, contain elements that are inconsistent with Islamic law and could potentially lead to idolatry, thus being categorized as al-'urf al-fāsid. Therefore, the Panggih Manten tradition can be preserved through reinterpretation of its meaning and the elimination of elements that contradict Islamic teachings, thus aligning it with Islamic principles.

This study aims to analyze the comparison of equity-based financing decisions and sukuk from the perspective of Sharia principles in companies in Indonesia. The development of the Islamic capital market in Indonesia shows a significant increase in the use of financing instruments that comply with Islamic principles, thereby encouraging companies to consider funding alternatives that are not only financially efficient but also Sharia-compliant. In the framework of Sharia financial management, capital structure decisions must consider the prohibition of usury, the principle of risk sharing, fairness in risk distribution, and contract certainty. This research uses a qualitative approach with a literature study method thru the analysis of various scientific journals, regulations, and academic sources related to capital structure theory, the concept of Sharia equity, and the characteristics of corporate sukuk in Indonesia. The study results indicate that equity-based financing provides flexibility in capital structure and reflects a risk-sharing mechanism, but it has the potential to cause ownership dilution. Meanwhile, sukuk offers asset-based financing with a clear contractual structure and does not dilute company ownership, although it requires an underlying asset and a more complex issuance process. Comparatively, both instruments have Sharia legitimacy as long as they meet the screening requirements and contract structures applicable in Indonesia. This research emphasizes that corporate financing decisions in Indonesia need to consider the balance between financial efficiency and compliance with Sharia principles.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of mudarabah and murabahah contracts at the Baitut Tamwil Muhammadiyah (BTM) Al-Kautsar Islamic Cooperative in Makassar and to assess their compliance with Islamic principles and the Islamic Financial Accounting Standards (PSAK Syariah). The research employed a qualitative descriptive approach using in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation. The findings reveal that BTM Al-Kautsar has implemented mudarabah and murabahah contracts in accordance with Islamic principles, as evidenced by valid contract agreements, agreed profit-sharing ratios, and manual transaction recording. The mudarabah contract is applied for profit-sharing financing, while murabahah is more dominant due to its lower risk and stable returns. However, the application of PSAK Syariah remains suboptimal due to limited human resources, the absence of a Sharia supervisory board, and minimal digital accounting systems. These findings suggest the need to enhance Sharia literacy, strengthen internal supervision, and modernize accounting systems to support accountable and sustainable Islamic cooperative governance

Digital technology has, in many ways, altered the manner in which businesses function. This transformation touches on aspects like how products are developed, delivered, and sold. It opens up a range of possibilities for business owners to broaden their markets, boost profits, and make better use of online tools. At the same time, however, the digital age introduces certain difficulties. These include increased competition as well as risks related to practices that may conflict with sharia law—for example, charging interest, engaging in transactions with unclear risks, or producing counterfeit goods. The focus of this study is to examine the opportunities and challenges that businesses encounter in today’s digital world, viewed through an Islamic lens. The approach taken involves a review of existing literature, drawing from various sources dealing with digital commerce and Islamic economic principles. The results suggest that digital business ventures hold considerable promise, provided they are conducted with honesty, fairness, and transparency, while avoiding activities disallowed by sharia. This way, entrepreneurs can not only generate income but also develop their enterprises in a way that aligns with ethical and religious values.

The resolution of juvenile cases in Indonesia requires a restorative justice approach as outlined in Law Number 11 of 2012 on the Juvenile Criminal Justice System (UUSPPA). However, Article 7, paragraph (2) restricts diversion to crimes punishable by less than seven years, excluding repeat offenders. This presents challenges for minors involved in serious crimes, such as rape, leading to concerns over child protection and fairness in the justice system. The implementation of diversion in the Syari’ah Court follows national juvenile justice protocols but faces challenges, especially in maintaining consistency across law enforcement agencies and regions. The study employs an empirical juridical approach and explores the challenges of implementing diversion in the Aceh Sharia Court. Findings reveal that diversion efforts are often inconsistent and rely on the discretion of authorities. Although the Child Criminal Justice System Law mandates diversion for cases involving crimes with sentences under seven years and non-recidivists, its actual application varies. For instance, rape cases between 2020 and 2023 show that some were excluded from diversion due to their serious nature, while others still pursued diversion despite the potential for sentences exceeding seven years.

The money market plays a vital role in the global financial architecture as a provider of short-term liquidity and a primary channel for monetary policy transmission. This research is motivated by the rapid transformation of financial instruments, which now encompass conventional and Sharia-compliant sectors, as well as digital innovations such as e-money and stablecoins. The purpose of this study is to examine the concept of the money market, identify the diversity of modern instruments, and analyze their strategic role in economic stability through a qualitative literature review approach. The analysis shows that the money market is highly effective in managing bank cash reserves and controlling inflation by regulating the money supply. The presence of digital instruments has been proven to accelerate liquidity flows, while Sharia schemes provide transparent and equitable investment alternatives. However, the emergence of digital assets also brings challenges of volatility that require adaptive regulation and professional skepticism from market participants. The implications of this research emphasize the importance of synergy between monetary authorities and financial technology to address global disruption. Strengthening regulations on future instruments is expected to create a more inclusive and stable financial system that can respond precisely to economic shocks.

The development of modern economic systems shows that conventional approaches are often criticized for focusing too much on rational and mathematical aspects, while giving less attention to ethical and moral values in economic activities. This condition has encouraged the emergence of alternative systems that combine material and spiritual elements, one of which is the Islamic economic system.This study aims to analyze the characteristics and structure of the Islamic economic system as a framework based on Sharia principles. The research uses a qualitative approach with a literature review method by examining various relevant sources. The data are analyzed descriptively to better understand the basic concepts and structure of the Islamic economic system.The results show that Islamic economics has key characteristics such as a strong connection to divine values, a balance between individual and social interests, and an emphasis on justice and social responsibility in economic activities. Therefore, Islamic economics not only regulates economic practices but also incorporates moral and ethical values to achieve overall social well-being.This study is expected to contribute to the development of Islamic economic studies and can be used as a reference for building a more fair and sustainable economic system.

This study discusses the implementation of the concept of Islamic insurance in the Amanah Card product at Amanah Takaful Banten. In Indonesia, there are various economic activities such as trade, savings and loans, and Islamic financial institutions. Currently, the insurance sector is growing rapidly in Indonesia. There are two types of insurance in Indonesia, namely Islamic insurance and conventional insurance. However, conventional insurance poses concerns for Muslims due to the presence of elements such as riba (interest), gharar (uncertainty), and maysir (gambling). Therefore, Islamic insurance emerges as a risk protection system that prioritizes Sharia principles. The objectives of this study are: (1) to identify the concept of the Amanah Card product at Amanah Takaful Banten, (2) to examine the implementation of Islamic insurance principles in the Amanah Card product, and (3) to analyze how Amanah Takaful Banten improves the accessibility of the Amanah Card product. This research employs a qualitative approach using a field study method (direct observation in the field). Data were collected through interviews with informants, as well as observation and documentation methods. Data analysis was conducted through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. Relevant literature includes theories on insurance, Amanah Card, and zakat management institutions, as well as previous studies that examine the implementation of Islamic insurance concepts in insurance products such as Amanah Card. The results show that the Amanah Card product is categorized as a microinsurance product. It implements Islamic insurance principles, including the use of contracts (akad) and management practices that comply with Sharia principles and do not violate existing regulations. The Amanah Card product can be accessed offline through registration with Duta MT Bertaawun and online through social media and the Amanah Takaful website. In conclusion, the Amanah Card product is considered compliant both from a Sharia perspective and regulatory standards.

The rapid development of Islamic finance has encouraged central banks in dual banking systems to design monetary instruments that comply with Sharia principles while maintaining macroeconomic stability. However, the effectiveness of Islamic monetary instruments and their transmission mechanisms remain widely debated in the literature. This study aims to systematically review the empirical and conceptual literature on Islamic monetary instruments, focusing on their effectiveness, transmission channels, and macroeconomic outcomes. Using a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach guided by the PRISMA framework, this research synthesizes findings from major studies examining Islamic monetary policy operations, banking transmission mechanisms, and their impacts on inflation, output, and financial stability. The results reveal that the financing/credit channel and the interest–profit pass-through mechanism are the dominant transmission pathways in dual banking systems. Although Islamic banks often demonstrate relative stability during monetary shocks, policy transmission remains partly influenced by conventional interest rate benchmarks due to institutional and market structure factors. The effectiveness of Islamic monetary instruments is largely determined by the depth of Islamic money markets, the availability of liquid instruments such as central bank sukuk, and the strength of regulatory and institutional infrastructure. Furthermore, empirical evidence linking Islamic monetary instruments directly to macroeconomic outcomes such as inflation and growth remains limited. This study proposes an integrated conceptual framework linking Islamic monetary instruments, transmission channels, and macroeconomic outcomes, moderated by institutional quality, market share of Islamic banking, and market depth. The findings contribute to the literature by providing a comprehensive synthesis of existing research and offering policy insights for strengthening Islamic monetary policy frameworks in dual financial systems.

The community service activity entitled “Optimization of MSME Financial Management Based on Sharia Economic Principles” aims to enhance financial literacy and management capacity of micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in Bekasi Regency in a sustainable manner. This program is designed to address the practical needs of business actors in managing their finances in an orderly, transparent manner and in accordance with Sharia values. Through a participatory training approach and action-based mentoring, a total of eight MSME participants took part in a series of activities, including basic financial recording training, simulations of Sharia-based financial statement preparation, as well as an introduction to various halal financing alternatives and the utilization of Sharia fintech. The results of the activity indicate a significant increase in participants’ understanding of Sharia financial concepts, rising from 45% to 85%, along with improved skills in preparing financial statements in accordance with Sharia principles. In addition, this program also generated positive social changes, marked by the establishment of the “Bekasi Berdaya Sharia MSME Group” as a platform for collective learning, business collaboration, and network strengthening. These findings demonstrate that the application of Sharia financial principles in community empowerment programs can strengthen economic resilience while fostering ethical, transparent, and value-driven business practices.

Tight competition in the footwear industry requires companies to carry out production processes effectively and efficiently. Good production management will have an impact on the quality of the products produced and the achievement of the company's production targets. The purpose of compiling this internship report is to study and analyze the shoe production process based on the operational management perspective at PT. XYZ. The benefits of the report discussed are as a direct means in the world of work and as evaluation material for the company. The FAJAR Internship Activity of the Sharia Business Management Study Program in 2025 was carried out at PT. XYZ in the production department. Data collection was carried out using several techniques, namely direct observation of the production process, interviews with related parties, and documentation during the implementation of the internship activities. Based on the results of the analysis carried out, the production process at PT. XYZ is divided into several stages, preparation of raw materials, cutting processes, pressing and trimming (hotpress), to quality control.

The conclusion of this internship report is that the implementation of operational management has supported the smooth running of production activities, although improvements are still needed. It is recommended that the company improve coordination between departments and conduct regular production process evaluations to improve process efficiency and product quality.

Poverty remains a fundamental problem rooted in Indonesia's socio-economic structure, despite various mitigation schemes implemented by the government. As the country with the largest Muslim population in the world, Indonesia has enormous sharia-based public financial resources, where zakat should be positioned as a strategic means of wealth distribution. However, in reality, this instrument is often not optimally realised in national macroeconomic policy. This study aims to analyse Monzer Kahf's Islamic economic thinking on zakat and its relevance to poverty alleviation efforts in Indonesia. The research method used is qualitative with a library research approach through a systematic literature review of Monzer Kahf's fundamental works and various studies related to national zakat management, which are analysed descriptively and analytically to connect the theoretical framework with the socio-religious dynamics in Indonesia.  

This study aims to analyze the implementation of Islamic marketing and digital-based Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) at Pegadaian Syariah Surabaya from the perspective of maqashid sharia and assess how the integration of the two supports the sustainability of the institution and public trust. The background of the study departs from the development of digital technology that requires Islamic financial institutions to maintain transparency, fairness, data security, and sharia compliance in all marketing activities and social programs. The research method uses a descriptive qualitative approach through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation analysis on digital services and CSR activities of Pegadaian Syariah. The results show that digital Islamic marketing not only functions as a promotional tool, but also as a sharia education medium that upholds the values ​​of shidq, amanah, and maslahah, thereby supporting hifz al-din, hifz al-mal, and hifz al-‘aql. Meanwhile, the implementation of CSR covers the fields of religion, health, education, and empowerment of MSMEs that are in line with the five dimensions of maqashid sharia. The integration of Islamic marketing and CSR creates a strategic synergy that increases public trust, strengthens the institution's legitimacy, and ensures the sustainability of Pegadaian Syariah in the digital era. This research provides theoretical contributions regarding maqasid-based marketing and CSR strategies, as well as practical recommendations for strengthening sharia governance and digital education programs.

This study is developed as a conceptual paper that analyzes halal marketing practices through a maqashid shariah lens across three operational domains: digital marketing, customer service and business administration. The paper is motivated by recent developments in the global halal economy, the stronger linkage between halal assurance, governance quality and digital transparency, and Indonesia's policy acceleration toward mandatory halal implementation in October 2026. Methodologically, the study uses a structured literature review and conceptual synthesis of international reputable journals and relevant Indonesian journals, complemented by policy and industry reports. The analysis maps prior findings into maqashid dimensions (protection of religion, life, intellect, wealth and dignity) and translates them into practical indicators of honesty, transparency, fairness, consumer protection and procedural reliability. The paper argues that credible halal marketing depends not only on promotional messages but also on service conduct and disciplined administrative governance. It contributes a conceptual framework and practical propositions for evaluating halal marketing practices in MSMEs and service businesses.

This study aims to conduct a systematic synthesis of available empirical evidence to empirically ascertain the impact of Board of Directors' competence on earnings management practices in Islamic banking. The research employs a qualitative literature review approach. A literature search was performed on the Scopus database for the period 2010–2025, utilizing a combination of the keywords "Islamic bank," "Board of Director," and "Earnings Management." From an initial pool of 127 identified documents, a rigorous screening process based on inclusion and exclusion criteria yielded 53 reputable journal articles as the final units of analysis. Data analysis was conducted using thematic analysis to synthesize substantive findings. The synthesis results consistently confirm that Board of Directors' competence demonstrates a negative and significant impact on earnings management practices in Islamic banking. However, the effectiveness of this impact is not homogeneous. The principal findings identify three crucial boundary conditions: (1) The presence of specific expertise in finance and Sharia contracts at the board level serves as the primary differentiator of supervisory effectiveness; (2) The complementary interaction with the Sharia Supervisory Board (SSB) moderates the strength of this relationship; and (3) The regional institutional context (centralization model in Southeast Asia vs. decentralization in the GCC) significantly influences the effectiveness of governance in curbing the manipulation of discretionary accounts, including the Profit Equalization Reserve (PER).

Illegal street racing is a persistent issue in Indonesia, including Bungo Regency, endangering road users and violating traffic laws. This study, based on a case study at the Traffic Unit of Bungo Police Resort, aims to explore the police's role in addressing illegal street racing from an Islamic criminal law perspective. Using a qualitative juridical-empirical approach, the study examines legal regulations, institutional practices, and Islamic jurisprudence. Data was gathered from legal sources and literature related to law enforcement and Islamic criminal law. The results reveal that the police play a strategic role in combating street racing through preventative, preemptive, and repressive tactics. Repressive measures include law enforcement based on the Indonesian Traffic and Road Transportation Law, while preventive actions involve community outreach, traffic education, and regular patrols. From an Islamic criminal law viewpoint, illegal street racing is categorized as jarimah ta‘zīr, where authorities impose sanctions to maintain public order and prevent harm (mafsadah), aligning with the maqasid al-shariah goals of preserving property and life. The study concludes that effective and sustainable action against street racing requires collaboration between law enforcement, communities, and religious perspectives.

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) play a strategic role in economic development; however, their competitiveness is often constrained by weak branding and limited digital marketing capabilities. This community engagement program aimed to strengthen brand identity and digital capacity of the “Pukle” catfish cracker MSME in Karangsuwung Village, Cirebon Regency, through an integrated branding and sharia-based digital marketing approach. A participatory–collaborative method was employed, consisting of needs assessment, Workshops, technical mentoring, and monitoring and evaluation. The interventions included the development of brand identity elements (logo, tagline, and visual guidelines), improvement of informative packaging, activation and optimization of WhatsApp Business, and utilization of TikTok Shop as a social commerce channel. In addition, a standard operating procedure for sharia-compliant digital content based on the principles of shiddiq (truthfulness), amanah (trustworthiness), fathanah (competence), and tabligh (communicativeness) was formulated to enhance consumer trust. The results indicate improvements in product professionalism, digital channel management, content consistency, and customer interaction. The integration of branding and sharia digital marketing proved relevant in building differentiation, expanding market access, and strengthening long-term business reputation. The program highlights that MSME digital transformation requires capacity building, continuous mentoring, and ethical value integration to ensure sustainable competitiveness.
