Memorizing the Qur’an is a process, as the material to be memorized must be perfect, because this knowledge is studied to be memorized, not to be understood. However, once the memorization of the Qur’an is complete, it is then required to understand the contents contained within it. The purpose of this study is to find out how the tahfidz program is implemented at Pesantren Diniyyah Puteri Padang Panjang. By using a qualitative descriptive research method, it means that the data collected is not in the form of numbers but comes from interviews, field notes, and pictures. To obtain accurate results, this study uses data collection methods in the form of observation, interviews, and documentation. The analysis used includes data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of this study first show that the Al-Quran tahfidz program at Pesantren Diniyyah Puteri Padang Panjang is a mandatory activity for students in the dormitory and is included in In the extracurricular program at school, the implementation has been running quite well. Second, there are supporting factors from both internal and external sources that facilitate the tahfidz program, such as rewards for students who have reached their memorization targets, designated rooms for students to memorize, and guidance from professional supervisors. The inhibiting factors are: students' laziness due to a packed schedule in both the dormitory and school, and too little time to memorize and review their memorization.

Access to healthcare services is a crucial determinant in improving community health, particularly in rural areas that face geographic and social challenges. This study aims to describe the accessibility and utilization of healthcare services among residents of Desa Sama Subur, Kecamatan Motui, Kabupaten Konawe Utara. A descriptive quantitative design was employed, with the population comprising all active household heads in the village. A total of 45 household heads were selected using total sampling. Data were collected through face-to-face interviews using structured questionnaires during the 2025 Field Learning Experience (Pengalaman Belajar Lapangan, PBL). Descriptive analysis was conducted and results were presented in frequency distributions and percentages.The findings indicate that the majority of respondents possess health insurance (88.9%); however, the utilization of healthcare facilities remains suboptimal, with only 48.9% having ever accessed services. Perceptions of healthcare accessibility varied, with 51.1% considering it easy and 46.7% reporting difficulty. Motorcycles were the most commonly used mode of transportation (77.8%), and community health centers (Puskesmas) were the most frequently utilized facilities (60.0%). Regarding service satisfaction, nursing staff behavior received the highest satisfaction rating (28.9%), while waiting time remained the main concern. In conclusion, healthcare access in rural communities is multidimensional, influenced not only by health insurance ownership but also by geographic factors, transportation availability, and service experience. Enhancing the utilization of healthcare services requires strengthening primary care and improving physical access to healthcare facilities.

This study aims to analyze the role and optimization strategies of Pecalang Segara in monitoring fishing activities that contribute to coral reef ecosystem degradation in the Traditional Village of Pemuteran, North Bali. Pecalang Segara is a customary security institution that holds social legitimacy and customary authority in maintaining order within coastal areas. This research applies an empirical legal approach using a qualitative descriptive method. Data were collected through field observations, interviews with customary leaders and coastal communities, and a literature review of environmental laws and related regulations. The findings indicate that Pecalang Segara plays a strategic role in supervising fishing activities based on local wisdom, particularly in preventing destructive fishing practices that damage coral reefs. However, the effectiveness of this role remains limited due to insufficient technical capacity, low environmental legal awareness, and weak integration between customary law and formal legal systems. The study highlights the importance of strengthening Pecalang Segara through environmental education, regulatory-based monitoring training, and institutional coordination with local government authorities. The integration of customary law and national environmental law is expected to establish a sustainable community-based marine monitoring model capable of effectively protecting coral reef ecosystems and supporting environmental governance in coastal areas.

The development of industrial areas has direct implications for surrounding buffer villages, including Plenen Village, which is adjacent to the Batang Integrated Industrial Estate (KITB)/Batang Industropolis Special Economic Zone (SEZ). The main issue identified is the suboptimal utilization of industrial development opportunities to improve local community welfare. This study aims to analyze the synergy between village government and industrial areas in empowering the community of Plenen Village. A qualitative approach with a case study design was employed. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, field observations, and document analysis, and were analyzed thematically. The findings indicate that synergy between the village government and industrial area has been established through program coordination, facilitation of local labor absorption, and social support via corporate social responsibility programs. However, such synergy remains partial and has not been institutionally integrated, resulting in limited impact on community empowerment. The study concludes that strengthening collaborative governance and joint planning is essential to ensure that industrial development provides more inclusive and sustainable benefits for buffer village communities.

This study examines the implementation of the Manak Salah tradition in Padang Bulia Customary Village from the perspectives of legal certainty and human rights protection. Manak Salah is a customary practice associated with the birth of opposite-sex twins, which in Balinese Hindu cosmology is considered a sacred event that may disrupt the balance between the sekala and niskala realms, thereby requiring purification rituals. Although the contemporary practice of this tradition has become more humane and no longer involves social exclusion, its regulation remains unwritten and has not been formally codified in the village’s Awig-awig (customary law). This condition creates the risk of multiple interpretations, legal uncertainty, and insufficient protection of the rights of children and affected families. This research employs an empirical juridical method with a qualitative approach, using interviews with customary leaders, field observations, and document analysis of statutory regulations and customary legal sources. The findings reveal that the absence of written norms causes the implementation of Manak Salah to rely heavily on the discretion of customary authorities, leading to potential inconsistency and normative vulnerability. This study emphasizes the urgency of codifying the Manak Salah tradition into the Awig-awig as a form of customary law reform aimed at ensuring legal certainty, strengthening institutional accountability within customary villages, and harmonizing customary law with Bali Provincial Regulation No. 4 of 2019 and fundamental human rights principles.

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.

The city of Singkawang has experienced rapid population growth, leading to an increase in the number of students. On 17 September 2024, the Singkawang City Transportation Agency implemented a free revitalized Student Transport service to reduce the number of traffic accidents involving students. The aim of this study is to identify service and respondent characteristics, evaluate operational management, and assess performance and user satisfaction using the IPA and CSI methods, as well as Vehicle Operating Costs (VOC). The research employs a descriptive quantitative method by analyzing descriptive statistical data. Data were obtained from field observations, interviews, and surveys of 400 student respondents (146 users and 254 non-users). The results show that the student transport operates with two vehicles serving the North and East Singkawang routes. The load factor for outbound trips is 22%–32% and for return trips is 11%–12%, with travel times of 68–85 minutes, average operating speeds of 20–22 km/hour, and circulation times of 68–85 minutes. Based on the IPA analysis, the indicators in quadrant D require socialization regarding the functions and use of the interior of the student transport. The CSI result shows a score of 99.79% (very satisfied). The annual VOC amounts to IDR 292,905,814 (East Singkawang) and IDR 282,020,390 (North Singkawang). In conclusion, this service is satisfactory but still requires socialization to enhance its attractiveness and effectiveness.

A problem that is often debated by both the western and eastern world is the problem of determining the truth of a scientific field or theory. In western science, a thought emerged from a philosopher, namely the theory of falsification put forward by Karl Raymond Popper. In his theory Popper argues that the truth of a science is not determined through justification (verification), but through refuting the propositions that science itself builds (falsification). The study of Popper's falsification has been very widely published and discussed in various writings, especially in Islamic studies and science (science). In this article, the author tries to briefly describe the urgency of Karl R. Popper's thought in the academic field. The method used in writing this article is library research (literature review), using relevant documents, journals, and research. Through this research, it is known that the application of Karl Raimund Popeer's theory of falsification is very important in the academic field. This is evidenced by the concept of falsification which is used to determine the scientific knowledge. In addition, the concept of falsification was used long before Popper introduced the theory. One of them is used by the Muslim philosopher Imam Al-Gazali in defending and proving his arguments and thoughts. In the development of scientific methods, the principle of falsification plays an important role in strengthening scientific theory because it serves as evidence to disqualify other irrelevant theories.

The development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the 21st century has brought significant transformation to the field of education, including Islamic Religious Education (PAI). One of the most practical implementations of this technology is the chatbot an automated conversational system capable of providing quick and contextual responses to user queries. This study aims to analyze the utilization of AI-based chatbots in addressing Islamic-related questions among students of the Islamic Education Department at IAIN Kerinci. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collected through interviews, observations, and documentation. The findings reveal that students use chatbots as an initial source of information to understand Islamic concepts such as fiqh, tafsir, and hadith. Chatbots serve as learning aids that promote active learning and enhance students’ digital religious literacy. However, the study also identifies limitations related to the accuracy and validity of the sources used by the system, indicating that students still need verification from lecturers and authoritative Islamic literature. Overall, AI-based chatbots hold great potential to support interactive and contextual Islamic learning, provided their use is guided by academic supervision rooted in Islamic values.

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.  

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.

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.

The development of the Central Government Core Area (KIPP) of the Capital City of Nusantara (IKN) is a national strategic project that has significant implications, particularly in relation to state control/domination of land.  The relocation of the national capital to the Capital City of Nusantara (IKN) has become a strategic agenda of the Indonesian government, which aims to realize equitable development and a new administrative center in Indonesia (Law Number 3 of 2022 concerning the National Capital) and has an impact on all aspects of the lives of indigenous peoples in the IKN Nusantara region, particularly in the field of land.  However, this project raises serious issues related to state control of land, especially in terms of the rights of the surrounding communities whose land is affected by the Development of the Central Government Area of the Capital City of Nusantara (KIPP IKN).  Land restitution is a central issue because it concerns the guarantee of human rights, particularly the right to ownership, access to land, and social justice (Satjipto Rahardjo, Hukum dan Masyarakat [Law and Society] (Bandung: Alumni, 2000).  This study analyzes how land restitution in the KIPP IKN development project is viewed from a human rights perspective, emphasizing the need for a balance between national development interests and the protection of citizens' rights.

Strengthening family-based microenterprises is one strategic approach to improving the economic resilience and independence of local communities. Family microenterprises not only serve as a source of income, but also as an important instrument in maintaining the social and economic stability of households. This study aims to describe the conditions of family-based microenterprises, identify obstacles to their development, and formulate strategies for optimizing family economics in Neighborhood I of Padangmatinggi Village, Padangsidimpuan City. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, field observations, and documentation studies. Research informants include family micro-business actors, village officials, and other related parties. The results show that family-based micro-businesses have a real contribution to increasing household income and meeting basic family needs. However, business development still faces limitations in capital, low financial literacy, limited product innovation, and minimal marketing access. Therefore, an integrated development strategy is needed that includes increasing human resource capacity, facilitating access to financing, utilizing digital technology, and institutional support from the local government to realize the sustainability of family micro-businesses.

This study aims to analyze the supervisory strategy of the Panwascam (Central Election Supervisory Agency) of Sinjai Borong District in handling election violations in the 2024 Simultaneous Regional Elections in Sinjai Regency. The study focuses on two main aspects, namely preventive strategies and repressive strategies. The research method uses a qualitative approach with case studies, through in-depth interviews, observation, documentation, and interactive data analysis. The results show that the Panwascam's preventive strategies include socialization of election regulations, political education, and strengthening coordination with village officials and community leaders. This strategy has been proven to increase regulatory understanding among lower-level election organizers and public political awareness, especially first-time voters. Meanwhile, the repressive strategy is implemented through violation handling mechanisms, preparing legal recommendations, and summoning perpetrators and witnesses. Based on field findings, the Panwascam successfully handled one case of violation of ASN neutrality that was recommended to the Regency Bawaslu. This study concludes that the supervision of the Sinjai Borong Panwascam is relatively effective, although it still faces limited resources, low public legal literacy, and strong local political patronage. The results of this study provide a conceptual contribution to strengthening the community-based electoral supervision model, which integrates regulatory, educational, and collaborative aspects. They also serve as practical recommendations for improving the quality of electoral democracy at the local level.

This study is motivated by the rapid development of digital technology, which has positioned social media as an essential tool for disseminating information and conducting promotion, including in the field of arts and culture.

Mining of rocks, particularly andesite, in East OKU Regency provides significant economic contributions but generates environmental impacts that require rehabilitation through reclamation and post-mining management. This study aims to evaluate the compliance level of Production Operation Mining Business License (IUP OP) holders with these obligations and to identify challenges in their implementation. A descriptive quantitative and qualitative approach was employed, with primary data collected through interviews and field observations related to reclamation and post-mining plans, as well as the placement of guarantees. Secondary data included IUP licensing documents, legislation, and guidance letters from the Energy and Mineral Resources Office of South Sumatra Province. Quantitative analysis categorized compliance levels, while qualitative analysis examined challenges and guidance strategies. The results indicate variations in IUP OP holders’ compliance; some have prepared documentation and placed guarantees, but delays and lack of continuity were observed. Major challenges include profit-oriented approaches, limited technical and environmental understanding, and limited permit duration. Guidance strategies, supervision, guarantee management, provision of technical experts, and community empowerment proved essential. These findings have implications for enhancing compliance, sustainable post-mining planning, and responsible mining practices.
