Early marriage is a social phenomenon that still frequently occurs in Indonesia and gives rise to various problems, both from the perspective of state law and socio-religious aspects. From the standpoint of state regulations, early marriage is considered a violation of statutory provisions, particularly the Marriage Law, which stipulates a minimum legal age for marriage in order to protect children's rights. This practice results in various negative impacts, including increased health risks for mothers and children, disruption of educational attainment, economic instability within families, as well as high rates of divorce and domestic violence. From the perspective of Islamic law, early marriage is not absolutely prohibited; however, Islam strongly emphasizes the principles of public welfare (maṣlaḥah), physical and mental readiness, and responsibility in establishing a household. Therefore, Islamic legal solutions to early marriage as a violation of state regulations can be implemented through the maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah approach, which aims to protect life, intellect, and lineage, as well as by supporting state regulations intended to safeguard the rights and welfare of children. Consequently, synergy between Islamic law and state law is essential in preventing early marriage and in creating a healthy and just family structure.

This study examines the relationship between learning theories and the selection of instructional media in classroom practice. It is motivated by the observation that teachers often choose media based on availability rather than alignment with pedagogical goals. The purpose of this study is to analyze how behavioristic, cognitive, constructivist, and humanistic learning theories guide the design and use of effective instructional media. This research employs a qualitative approach using classroom observations, in-depth interviews with teachers and students, and document analysis. The findings indicate that instructional media aligned with learning theory significantly enhance students’ motivation, engagement, and comprehension. Interactive, student-centered media grounded in constructivist principles produced the strongest improvements, while drill-oriented media were most suitable for procedural skills. This study offers a practical model for aligning learning objectives, learning theories, and media selection that teachers can use in lesson planning.

The protection of suspects’ rights during the investigation phase is a fundamental component of a fair and effective criminal justice system. This study examines the implementation of the principle of due process of law in Indonesia and its implications for safeguarding human rights in criminal investigations. Utilizing a normative legal research approach, supported by statutory and conceptual analysis, the research evaluates both the legal framework and practical application of suspects’ rights under the Indonesian Criminal Procedure Code (KUHAP), the 1945 Constitution, and international human rights instruments such as the ICCPR. Findings indicate that while Indonesia has established comprehensive regulations to protect suspects, the practical implementation remains inconsistent due to structural, cultural, and procedural challenges. Deviations such as limited access to legal counsel, incomplete documentation of interrogations, and occasional coercive practices undermine adherence to due process standards. The study highlights the critical need for regulatory improvements, capacity building for investigators, and strengthened supervision mechanisms to ensure full protection of suspects’ rights. Enhancing the conformity of investigative practices with due process principles is essential not only for safeguarding individual rights but also for maintaining public trust and the integrity of the Indonesian criminal justice system.

This study examines the theological and moral dimensions of the Book of 2 Samuel by highlighting issues such as sin, repentance, justice, leadership, and its ethical implications for modern society. The aim of this study is to explore how the story of King David, with its moral complexity and the consequences of each of his actions, can serve as a reflective guide in dealing with contemporary ethical challenges. The method used is biblical hermeneutics combined with literature studies to interpret texts in their historical, social, and cultural contexts. This approach allows for a more comprehensive understanding of the theological message of the Book of 2 Samuel and its relevance to life today. The results of the study show that the value of sincere repentance, divine justice, and responsible leadership are universal principles that transcend the context of the times. These values are relevant in responding to modern problems such as abuse of power, integrity crises, and structural corruption. The novelty of this research lies in the effort to reinterpret ancient theological and moral teachings as an applicative ethical framework to strengthen moral leadership and ethical awareness in modern societ

This research aims to critically examine the ethical integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in education through the perspective of maqāṣid al-sharīʿah, emphasizing the alignment between technological innovation and Islamic moral principles. The methods used are a systematic literature review and thematic content analysis against peer-reviewed publications for the period 2015–2025, which discuss the application of AI in primary, secondary, and higher education. The study identified dominant ethical issues, such as data privacy, algorithmic bias, accountability, human agency, and moral development, which were then mapped to Islamic ethical goals, including ʿadl (justice), amānah (belief), karāmah al-insān (human dignity), and ḥifẓ al-ʿaql (protection of reason). The results of the analysis show that the adoption of AI in education often emphasizes efficiency, personalization, and predictive analytics, but has the potential to reduce learners' autonomy and ethical reasoning. The mapping of maqāṣid al-sharīʿah shows a strong normative conformity, so that Islamic principles can be a moral foundation as well as a practical guide for AI governance. The research contribution is theoretical by bridging the literature on AI ethics and Islamic educational philosophy, as well as practical by offering an integrative framework for AI policymakers, educators, and developers. The integration of maqāṣid al-sharīʿah in AI governance ensures justice, trust, inclusivity, and the development of the whole human being (insān kāmil).

The investigation stage constitutes a crucial phase in the criminal justice system, as it determines the direction and quality of subsequent law enforcement processes. Within the context of Indonesian criminal procedural law, the Criminal Procedure Code (Kitab Undang-Undang Hukum Acara Pidana/KUHAP) grants extensive authority to law enforcement officials, particularly investigators, in order to ensure the effective disclosure of criminal offenses. However, such dominance of authority has the potential to create an imbalance between the interest of law enforcement effectiveness and the protection of human rights, especially when it is not accompanied by adequate mechanisms of limitation and oversight. This study aims to critically analyze the dominance of law enforcement authority at the investigation stage and its implications for law enforcement effectiveness and the potential for abuse of power. The research employs normative legal research using statutory and conceptual approaches, supported by qualitative analysis of legal doctrines, legislation, and relevant academic literature. The findings indicate that while the dominance of investigative authority does contribute to the effectiveness of investigations, it simultaneously creates opportunities for abuse of power due to weak internal and external oversight mechanisms. This condition results in the erosion of the principles of due process of law and the protection of suspects’ rights within the criminal justice system. Therefore, this study emphasizes the need to strengthen judicial control mechanisms, enhance the accountability of law enforcement officials, and reform criminal procedural law in order to achieve a balance between effective law enforcement and the protection of human rights within a democratic rule-of-law state.

Leadership is a strategic factor in improving the quality of Islamic educational institutions. The challenges of social change and globalization demand leadership models that are not only managerially effective but also grounded in Islamic values. This study aims to analyze models of Islamic educational leadership and their implications for institutional quality. The research method employed is a literature review, examining books and national and international journal articles indexed in Scopus and SINTA over the last five years. The findings indicate that transformational, visionary, democratic, and prophetic leadership play a significant role in enhancing educator performance, building an Islamic organizational culture, and strengthening the governance of Islamic educational institutions. The integration of Islamic values with modern leadership principles emerges as a strategic approach to developing the quality of Islamic education.

The coaching and supervision of inmates is an integral part of the correctional system which aims to shape the behavior of inmates so that they are able to reintegrate socially while still upholding Human Rights (HAM). This study aims to examine the quality of coaching and supervision of inmates at the Class IIB Maumere State Prison (Rutan), especially in its implementation according to modern correctional principles. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, direct observations, and documentation studies. The results of the study show that the implementation of coaching and supervision has been carried out in accordance with the provisions of the applicable laws and regulations, but it has not run optimally. The main obstacles include limited human resources, inadequate facilities and infrastructure, and the implementation of a humanist approach in fostering assisted residents. In addition, coordination between officers still needs to be improved so that the coaching program runs more effectively. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen correctional management, increase the capacity and professionalism of officers, and support adequate facilities to realize effective, humane, and fair coaching and supervision.

In the contemporary era,many people have yet to fully comprehend or internalize the spiritual and social dimensions of prayer (shalat). As a result, shalat is often carried out merely as a routine obligation without deep reflection on its true purpose. In fact, shalat plays a significant role in shaping personal character and social behavior. This study employs a literature review approach by examining various sources, including books, academic journals, and educational articles that discuss the concept and significance of shalat as an act of worship. The findings indicate that a profound understanding of the inner meanings of shalat can foster self-awareness, self-control, and discipline. These values strongly contribute to the development of moral and ethical character. Furthermore, shalat reflects collective religiosity through its practices and procedures, symbolizing spiritual purification, reverence for God, and awareness of human limitations. Congregational prayer further emphasizes principles of unity, brotherhood, and equality, regardless of social status or background. In addition, shalat functions as a moral safeguard that prevents individuals from engaging in immoral and harmful actions. Therefore, shalat plays a crucial role not only in strengthening spiritual devotion but also in maintaining personal integrity and social harmony.

Urban waste management remains a major challenge in achieving a clean and sustainable environment, including in Bontoduri Sub-district, Makassar City. Waste banks, as a community-based waste management model, have significant potential to reduce waste generation while creating economic value. However, in practice, the role of waste banks has not been fully optimized due to limitations in institutional capacity, community participation, and managerial practices. This community service activity aimed to strengthen the role of waste banks in promoting a clean and economically valuable environment through participatory and community empowerment approaches. The methods employed included preparation, environmental education and socialization, waste bank management training, institutional mentoring, and activity evaluation. The program involved approximately 30 participants consisting of waste bank managers, local government representatives, and community members. The results indicated an increase in community awareness and understanding of waste segregation, improved managerial and administrative capacities of waste bank operators, and enhanced community participation in waste-saving activities. In addition, waste banks contributed to generating added economic value from household waste and reducing the volume of waste disposed of into the environment and landfills. This activity concludes that strengthening the role of waste banks through education, training, and continuous mentoring can serve as an effective strategy to support sustainable urban waste management based on circular economy principles.

Public services at the sub-district level still face various obstacles, particularly limited human resources (HR), which impact the quality of services to the public. On the other hand, increasing public demands require sub-district governments to be more adaptive and responsive. This study aims to analyze the implementation of agile governance in improving the quality of public services under conditions of limited HR in Meteseh Sub-district, Semarang City. This study used a mixed methods approach with an explanatory sequential design. Quantitative data were collected through surveys of officials and service users, while qualitative data were obtained through in-depth interviews and institutional document reviews. Data analysis was conducted descriptively and thematically using triangulation techniques. The results indicate that limited HR impacts the speed and responsiveness of public services. However, good organizational adaptability and the partial application of agile governance principles can maintain the quality of public services in the good category. Work flexibility, internal collaboration, and digital adaptation are key supporting factors in mitigating the impact of limited HR. This study concludes that agile governance can be an effective alternative approach to improving the quality of public services at the sub-district level, especially under conditions of limited human resources.

The phenomenon of students displaying lazy attitudes and a lack of learning motivation represents a major challenge in the teaching and learning process of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) in various schools across Indonesia. This condition has a direct impact on low levels of student engagement and the achievement of expected learning objectives. This article provides an in-depth analysis of the multidimensional causes of this phenomenon, including internal student factors such as learning interest, levels of self-efficacy, intrinsic motivation, and learning styles, as well as external factors encompassing the role of teachers, particularly in the selection of instructional methods, classroom management, and pedagogical interactions. In addition, the family environment, peer influence, and digital culture are also important factors affecting students’ learning motivation. The article also presents various practical and integrated strategies that can be implemented by PAI teachers to enhance students’ learning motivation. The proposed approaches include strengthening value-based classroom management rooted in Islamic principles, applying active, participatory, and contextual learning methods, and reinforcing collaboration between schools and families in building a positive learning culture. Using a descriptive qualitative approach and classroom action research (CAR), the analysis shows that teachers’ emotional engagement, the implementation of educational reward systems, reflection on religious values, and experiential learning are able to increase students’ intrinsic motivation. This study implies the importance of curriculum innovation and strengthening professional development for PAI teachers to better orient learning toward fostering students’ enthusiasm for learning and the sustainable development of religious character in the digital era.

The phenomenon of child labor exploitation in the textile industry is a form of human rights violation that continues to occur in various countries, including in the global supply chains of multinational corporations. This practice not only involves individual perpetrators but also demonstrates the systematic involvement of corporations through production policies, cost pressures, and disregard for labor standards. The concept of corporate complicity is relevant to analyzing the extent to which corporations can be held criminally liable for human rights violations that occur in their business activities. This study aims to examine the forms of corporate involvement in child labor exploitation in the textile industry and analyze the framework for corporate criminal liability from a national and international legal perspective. The research method used is normative legal research with a statutory, conceptual, and case study approach. The results show that corporations can be considered to have participated in or assisted in human rights violations if they know about, allow, or profit from the practice of child labor exploitation. Although various international legal instruments such as the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights have affirmed corporate responsibility for human rights, their implementation in national law still faces obstacles, particularly regarding proving the element of guilt and imposing criminal sanctions on legal entities. Therefore, strengthening regulations, supply chain oversight mechanisms, and strict law enforcement are needed so that corporate criminal liability can be an effective instrument in preventing the exploitation of child labor and ensuring human rights protection.

Abbreviation is a common linguistic strategy used to achieve efficiency and clarity in modern communication. This study examines the abbreviation systems of English and Indonesian through a contrastive linguistic approach, focusing on morphological patterns, phonological constraints, and usage conventions. Employing a qualitative descriptive design, the data were collected from established linguistic references and analyzed using classical contrastive analysis principles. The findings reveal that English abbreviation formation is structurally flexible, allowing both pronounceable acronyms and non-pronounceable initialisms, often maintaining complex consonant clusters and orthographic capitalization. In contrast, Indonesian abbreviation formation is strongly influenced by phonological preferences, particularly ease of pronunciation and conformity to open syllable structures, resulting in forms that closely resemble ordinary lexical items. These structural differences suggest potential sources of negative transfer for language learners and challenges in translation practices. The study concludes that abbreviation systems are shaped not only by linguistic rules but also by sociocultural and communicative needs. Understanding these contrasts is essential for language teaching, translation, and further comparative linguistic research.

PT. XYZ faces administrative challenges in implementing the Contractor Safety Management System (CSMS), which has been managed manually from risk assessment and pre-qualification to contractor selection resulting in validation delays, document duplication, and limited monitoring. This study aims to: (1) identify the constraints of the manual CSMS at PT. XYZ; (2) design an electronic-CSMS (e-CSMS) application tailored to internal user needs; (3) analyze the contribution of e-CSMS to document management effectiveness; and (4) evaluate the design's alignment with the Occupational Health and Safety Management System (SMK3) principles as per Government Regulation No. 50 of 2012. The method employed is Research and Development (preliminary stage) using a descriptive qualitative approach through interviews, observations, and document studies. The design results include: (i) a unified digital form integrating procurement data input, risk assessment entries (severity and probability), and document upload and assessment for pre-qualification/selection in a single workflow; (ii) a monitoring dashboard with filtering and export functions; and (iii) internal access settings within PT. XYZ's HSSE portal. Functionally, this design addresses the main bottlenecks of the manual process by creating a more concise, structured, and documented verification workflow, thereby making document management more efficient and traceable. In terms of compliance, e-CSMS supports the implementation of SMK3 elements in the administrative domain of policy establishment, planning, and execution of OHS plans through consistent recording and verification mechanisms. Development recommendations include expansion to field implementation phases, automation of risk-level calculations, and an option for preliminary data entry by contractors with final verification remaining with the internal team.

This study aims to examine the aligenment between class scheduling and the performance of the live daily prayers among student4s at UIN Walisongo Semarang. As an Islamic higher education institution, UIN Walisongo expected to integrate academic activities with the religious obligateions of its students. However, the intensity of class schedules and the dynamics of campus activities often have the potensial to conflict with prayer times, making it necessary to investigate the exten to which academic schedules are synchronized with the required times for prayer. This research focuses on three main aspects: (1) the compatibility of class schedules with the times of the five daily prayers, (2) the extent to which academic administrator consider prayer times when designing class scheduls, and (3) the forms of taysir or facilitative measures provided by the anniversity to support timely prayer performance. Using a qualitative field research method and a case study approach, data are collected through observations, interviews, and documentation related to class schedules and worship facilities within the campus environment. The findings of this study are expected to provide a comprehensive understanding of the relationship between academic scheduling systems and the practice of performing the five daily prayers among students. In addition, this research aims to generate recommendations based on Islamic jurisprudence and Islamic time management principles, which my serve as a foundation for developing academic policies that are more supportive of religious observance. Such policies would help ensure that academic activities and religious obligations can operate in harmony and mutually reinforce one another.

This research aims to normatively analyze the legal basis, rationality, and implications of the presidential threshold on the multi-party system and the principle of electoral justice in Indonesia, with a focus on Constitutional Court Decision Number 14/PUU-XI/2013. Thru a normative legal approach, this research examines the provisions of Article 222 of Law Number 7 of 2017 concerning General Elections and the Constitutional Court's constitutional arguments in maintaining the presidential nomination threshold. The analysis results show that although formally the presidential threshold is an open and legitimate legal policy, it substantially creates political inequality and limits the participation of small parties in the multi-party system. The Constitutional Court's decision is considered not fully reflective of the principles of electoral justice and popular sovereignty, as it prioritizes government stability over political equality. Therefore, it is necessary to reformulate the presidential candidacy threshold policy to make it more proportional, inclusive, and aligned with the principles of constitutional democracy. This reform is expected to strengthen the legitimacy of Indonesia's presidential system without neglecting the fundamental values of justice and political representation of the people.  

This study aims to explore the understanding of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) actors regarding financial statements as a basis for applying for Islamic financing. Financial statements play a crucial role in assessing business feasibility, especially in Islamic banking which emphasizes the principles of transparency, justice, and accountability. This research employs a qualitative approach using a descriptive method. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and observations involving MSME actors and Islamic banking practitioners. The results indicate that most MSME actors have limited understanding of financial statements, both in terms of preparation and utilization, which impacts their ability to access Islamic financing. Therefore, collaboration between Islamic banks and educational institutions is needed to improve MSME financial literacy, so they are better prepared and have sufficient understanding to prepare financial reports in accordance with Sharia principles. This is expected to improve access to and the quality of financing received by MSMEs in Indonesia.

This study discusses fiqh ibadah as an important branch of fiqh that regulates the procedures for performing worship in accordance with Islamic law. The main objective of this study is to clarify the basic concepts of law, principles, and scope of worship in Islam so that its implementation is in accordance with sharia provisions. The data sources consist of primary literature (the Qur'an and Hadith) by analyzing scientific works from Google Scholar from 2018 to 2025 sourced from Indonesian and English journals. This study systematically describes the meaning of fiqh ibadah, sharia, and the legal basis derived from the Qur'an, sunnah, ijma, and qiyas. It includes complete arguments such as istihsan, maslahah, and urf. The discussion also covers the principles of ibadah mahdhah, which emphasize the necessity of evidence in its implementation to prevent bid'ah practices. The scope of fiqh ibadah focuses on four main acts of worship, namely prayer, zakat, fasting, and hajj, which have specific provisions in sharia. In addition, it also discusses the essence and purpose of worship, which shows that worship is a form of submission and love of a servant to Allah SWT and the main purpose of human creation. Through an understanding of fiqh worship, Muslims are expected to be able to perform worship correctly, validly, and accepted by Allah SWT, as well as a means of achieving benefit and happiness in this world and the hereafter.
