Inheritance involving adopted children often becomes a complex and controversial issue in Indonesia’s dual legal system. In Islamic law, inheritance is strictly based on blood and marital relationships; therefore, adopted children are not considered legal heirs. To address this limitation, Article 209 of the Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI) introduces the concept of a wasiat wajibah or mandatory will, allowing adopted children to receive up to one-third of the adoptive parents’ estate. In contrast, civil law treats adopted children as equivalent to biological children if the adoption is legally recognized, granting them full inheritance rights. These contrasting provisions create legal disparities and confusion within society. This study aims to explore the different legal treatments of adopted children under both systems, identify the challenges they face, and analyze efforts toward harmonization. Using a qualitative, normative-juridical approach through literature and regulatory analysis, the study finds that Islamic law restricts inheritance through gifts and wills, while civil law ensures equal rights. Challenges include legal uncertainty, inconsistent judicial interpretations, and potential conflicts between adopted and biological heirs. Harmonization efforts are reflected in KHI provisions, legal reforms on adoption, and judicial practices seeking to balance sharia principles, social justice, and legal certainty.

The rapid development of information technology has created significant opportunities for secondary schools to improve the quality of learning through the use of digital-based applications. This study aims to design and develop a web-based tutoring application for students of Junior High School (SMP) Negeri 1 Tana Righu by applying Object Oriented Technology (OOT) as the software development approach. OOT was chosen for its ability to simplify the system design process through structured modeling using the concepts of classes, objects, attributes, and relationships between objects. The developed application provides various features, including the presentation of learning materials, interactive practice questions, learning outcome evaluations, and student progress reports accessible in real time by both teachers and students. The research method consisted of needs analysis, system design using UML diagrams, implementation, and application testing. The testing results indicate that the tutoring application is effective in improving the learning process, assisting teachers in monitoring and evaluating student progress, and providing students with a more engaging and interactive learning experience. Therefore, this application is expected to serve as an innovative solution to support tutoring activities in secondary schools and contribute positively to enhancing the quality of education in the digital era.

This study aims to analyze the effect of the distribution of Zakat, Infak, and Sadaqah (ZIS) funds, economic growth, unemployment rate, and Regional Original Revenue (PAD) on the poverty rate in West Sumatra Province during the period 2020–2024. The data used are secondary data obtained from BAZNAS, BPS, and the Directorate General of Fiscal Balance (DJPK), covering 12 regencies/cities in West Sumatra Province. This study employs panel data regression analysis using EViews 12 software to examine the relationships among the variables. The results indicate that, partially, the distribution of ZIS funds and PAD have no significant effect on the poverty rate. In contrast, economic growth and unemployment rate have a negative and significant effect on the poverty rate. Simultaneously, all four independent variables are found to have a significant influence on the poverty rate. The coefficient of determination (Adjusted R²) is 0.123, indicating that 12.30% of the variation in the poverty rate can be explained by the variables in the study, while the remaining 87.7% is influenced by factors outside the model. The study provides policy implications suggesting that optimizing ZIS management, promoting inclusive economic growth, expanding employment opportunities to reduce unemployment, and utilizing PAD more effectively are crucial strategies for local governments and relevant institutions to effectively reduce the poverty rate in West Sumatra.

This research aims to examine the dialectics of Islamic philosophers’ thought within the framework of Islamic philosophy of education, focusing on the ideas of Al-Farabi, Al-Ghazali, Ibn Sina, and Ibn Khaldun. The study is motivated by contemporary issues in Islamic education, which tends to emphasize cognitive and technical aspects while neglecting spiritual, moral, and social dimensions. In this context, the intellectual heritage of classical Islamic philosophers offers alternative paradigms that are more balanced, holistic, and future-oriented. The research applies a qualitative library-based design, employing philosophical hermeneutics to interpret primary texts and secondary literature. This method allows for a critical reading of the philosophers’ ideas, followed by a synthesis of their dialectical relationships. The findings reveal three major dialectics: rationality versus spirituality, represented by Al-Farabi and Al-Ghazali; individuality versus sociality, as reflected in Ibn Sina and Ibn Khaldun; and idealism versus realism, which bridges normative visions with historical realities. These dialectics do not end in opposition but generate an integrative framework for Islamic educational philosophy. The study concludes that Islamic education should be understood as a transformative process that unites intellect and heart, balances individual growth with social responsibility, and integrates ideal visions with empirical realities. The dialectics of Islamic philosophers therefore carry not only historical significance but also strategic relevance for developing Islamic curricula oriented toward nurturing the insan kamil and fostering a dignified civilization in the global era.

This study aims to determine the influence of Organizational Culture (X1), Work Climate (X2), and Work Discipline (X3) on Employee Job Satisfaction (Y) at a company with 52 employees as respondents. The sampling technique used was non-probability sampling with a saturated sample method, meaning all members of the population were included in the sample. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire based on a Likert scale and then analyzed using SPSS version 25. The research employed a quantitative approach with multiple linear regression analysis to examine the relationships between the variables. The results showed that both organizational culture and work discipline had a significant and positive effect on employee job satisfaction. A strong organizational culture contributes to a shared vision, values, and sense of belonging, which enhances job satisfaction. Work discipline, on the other hand, ensures employees meet performance expectations and follow organizational rules, which promotes a stable and productive work environment. Although the work climate variable did not show as strong an influence as the other two, it still plays an important role in shaping employee perceptions and comfort in the workplace. Overall, the findings suggest that improving organizational culture and reinforcing work discipline are effective strategies for enhancing employee job satisfaction, while maintaining a supportive work climate can further support this effort.

This study aims to examine the influence of servant leadership (SL) on perceived organizational support (POS), job satisfaction (JS), job embeddedness (JE), and turnover intentions (TI) among private bank employees in West Jakarta. The research is motivated by the high turnover rate in the banking industry, despite organizational efforts to strengthen leadership and employee support. A total of 154 employees participated by completing an online Likert-scale questionnaire, and the data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) with SmartPLS 4.1.0.9. The findings reveal that SL positively and significantly influences POS (β=0.667), JS (β=0.585), and JE (β=0.579). Furthermore, POS (β=−0.328), JE (β=−0.386), and JS (β=−0.220) significantly and negatively affect TI. Predictive relevance is supported with Q² values ranging from 0.283 to 0.604, while model fit testing using SRMR yielded 0.050 (saturated) and 0.127 (estimated). Bootstrapping was conducted with 5,000 resamples, two-tailed testing, bias-corrected accelerated (BCa), and 95% confidence intervals. Theoretically, this research strengthens the literature by demonstrating that SL enhances workplace relationships through improved POS, JS, and JE, which subsequently reduces turnover intentions. Practically, the findings provide implications for banking management to adopt servant leadership as a strategic approach to employee retention. Nevertheless, despite high levels of POS, JS, and JE, some respondents still report turnover intentions, indicating the presence of unmodeled external factors such as career opportunities, workload, or industry dynamics. This study is limited by its cross-sectional design and one-time self-report measurement; thus, generalizations and causal inferences should be made with caution.

This research examines the role of family quality time in dealing with children with special needs (ABK) from the perspective of John 9:2-3. Based on analysis of the text, this research uses a descriptive qualitative approach with library study methods to collect and analyze data from various relevant sources. The results of the discussion show that children with special needs are God's initial creation, and there is a need for a deep understanding of human diversity and rejection of stigmatization related to children's conditions. In this context, the role of the family is very important in supporting, protecting and treating children with special needs with appropriate love and respect. The perspective of John 9:2-3 shows that the physical or mental condition of children with special needs is not the result of sin, but is an opportunity to demonstrate God's power and demonstrate God's love and deep concern for children. Therefore, implementing the role of family quality time involves several approaches, including giving full attention when together, involving children in family activities, and reading and meditating on the Bible together. So, this approach has great potential to promote the well-being and development of children with special needs, as well as strengthen healthy and inclusive intrafamilial relationships. Thus, the role of family quality time in dealing with children with special needs is important morally and spiritually, as well as in forming a strong foundation for children's growth and happiness in the family context.

This study aims to examine and analyze the effect of labor costs and feed costs on the income of broiler chicken farming businesses in Sikka Regency. The background of this research is based on the fact that labor costs and feed costs are the largest expense components in broiler chicken farming, thus it is necessary to investigate their contribution to farmers’ income. This research applies a quantitative approach with a causal design to identify cause-and-effect relationships between variables. The population of the study consisted of 78 broiler chicken farming businesses in Sikka Regency, with the purposive sampling technique applied to determine the sample. Data were collected through documentation techniques within the observation period of 2022–2024. Data analysis was conducted using multiple linear regression with the aid of the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software. The results show that partially, labor costs have a significant effect on business income, indicating that the more efficient the management of labor, the higher the income generated. Feed costs also have a significant effect on business income, as feed is the main factor determining the growth quality of broiler chickens. Simultaneously, labor costs and feed costs significantly influence the income of broiler chicken farming businesses in Sikka Regency. These findings emphasize the importance of cost efficiency in the management of broiler chicken farming businesses to increase income and strengthen the competitiveness of local farmers amid the increasingly competitive poultry industry.

This study aims to examine how social interactions between stakeholders at Sunan Kalijaga State Islamic University (UIN) Yogyakarta affect the performance of outsourced security guards. In the context of higher education, outsourced security guards hold a strategic position in maintaining campus security, so the dynamics of social relationships involving them, both with internal and external parties, are important aspects to examine. The research approach used was qualitative, combining field observation methods, in-depth interviews with seven key informants, and documentation review. Data analysis was carried out through the stages of reduction, presentation, and drawing conclusions using the Miles and Huberman model. The results show that open communication, regular appreciation, and structured coordination contribute significantly to improving motivation, discipline, and the quality of security services. Healthy competition between members encourages increased professionalism, while conflicts that arise in daily interactions can be managed effectively through a persuasive approach and collective support from colleagues and superiors. These findings confirm that the performance of outsourced officers is not solely determined by formal work systems or hierarchical instructions, but also by the quality of social relationships established in the work environment. Thus, positive social interactions play a crucial role in creating optimal performance and can serve as a model for relevant managerial practices for other higher education institutions.

This research aims to identify factors that significantly influence employee performance and formulate strategies to improve it. This research was conducted through a comprehensive literature study of various studies related to employee performance. The main focus of this research is on internal factors such as motivation, leadership, and organizational culture, as well as external factors such as technology and changes in the business environment. The research results show that employee performance is influenced by various interrelated factors. Motivation, both intrinsic and extrinsic, is a key factor that encourages employees to achieve optimal performance. Effective leadership, especially transformational and democratic leadership styles, also has an important role in improving performance. In addition, a positive organizational culture, conducive work environment, and appropriate use of technology can increase employee productivity and job satisfaction. To improve employee performance, organizations need to create a supportive and motivating work environment. This can be done by implementing various strategies, such as providing ongoing training and development, implementing a fair and transparent compensation system, building positive interpersonal relationships, and providing sufficient autonomy to employees. Apart from that, organizations also need to pay attention to external factors such as technological changes and evolving market dynamics.

This study aims to analyze the influence of communication between leaders and employees on improving employee performance at PT Bams Proceed Mandiri Jakarta. The background of this study is the problem of high employee turnover and increasing customer complaints in the 2023–2024 period. This condition indicates an indication of weak internal communication which has an impact on decreasing work quality and customer satisfaction. The research method used is a quantitative approach with a total sampling technique, where the entire population of 55 employees is used as the research sample. Primary data was collected through a questionnaire, while data analysis was carried out using a simple linear regression test using SPSS version 27. The research instrument has been tested for validity and reliability, and tested through classical assumptions to ensure more accurate analysis results. The results show that interpersonal communication, especially vertical communication carried out by leaders through instructions, directions, providing feedback, and awards, has a positive and significant effect on employee performance. These findings demonstrate that the more effective communication between leaders and subordinates, the higher the quality of work, punctuality, and employee commitment to the company. The study's conclusions emphasize that effective communication is not only a tool for conveying information, but also an important strategy in building harmonious working relationships, motivating employees, and increasing productivity. Therefore, companies need to strengthen their internal communication systems as part of their human resource management strategy.

This study investigates the use of experimental statistical analysis as an instructional approach to enhance students’ understanding of variable relationships in science learning. Many students tend to memorize experimental results without comprehending the underlying relationships between variables, resulting in limited analytical reasoning and superficial understanding. To address this issue, the present study explores how integrating basic statistical tools-such as mean, correlation, and regression-into experimental activities can strengthen conceptual comprehension, analytical reasoning, and scientific literacy. Grounded in constructivist and inquiry-based learning frameworks, the research emphasizes active engagement, where students participate in data collection, analysis, and interpretation to draw evidence-based conclusions. The study employed a quasi-experimental design involving science students divided into experimental and control groups. Both groups conducted similar laboratory experiments, but only the experimental group received explicit instruction in statistical analysis. Data were collected through pre-tests and post-tests to measure changes in students’ understanding of variable relationships. The results indicated a 25% improvement in the experimental group’s comprehension and reasoning ability compared to the control group. Students who applied statistical analysis demonstrated greater proficiency in interpreting data, identifying causal patterns, and connecting theoretical knowledge to experimental findings. In contrast, students taught through traditional narrative-based instruction showed minimal gains and relied heavily on memorization. The findings highlight the effectiveness of integrating statistical reasoning in promoting critical thinking, problem-solving, and scientific reasoning skills.

Social changes driven by globalization and advancements in digital technology have led to a shift in the values surrounding human sexuality, from being sacred to becoming increasingly liberal and permissive. This phenomenon has triggered an identity crisis, particularly among the younger generation. This study aims to explore the meaning of self-control as presented in Sirach 5:2 and to evaluate its relevance as an ethical and theological foundation in addressing the contemporary crisis of sexuality. The method employed is a literature study using a qualitative-theological approach and textual analysis of Sacred Scripture. The findings indicate that self-control in Sirach 5:2 is not merely the suppression of desire but an expression of moral and spiritual maturity grounded in wisdom and divine grace. In light of Christian ethics, this virtue shapes responsibility, chastity, and fidelity within human relationships. Thus, self-control becomes a fundamental basis for building personal integrity and a dignified direction of life amidst a permissive cultural current.

This study aims to describe the implementation of the Christian mission by the Christian Veterinary Mission (CVM) in the development of agriculture/livestock and education for students of IAKN Tarutung, which also focuses on evangelism that introduces Christ to the communities and students being served. CVM, as an international Christian mission organization, carries out services that combine spiritual and practical approaches, particularly among communities that also include IAKN Tarutung students, through technical assistance, training, community empowerment, and educational support. This research uses a qualitative research method with a descriptive analysis approach, utilizing data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation from CVM workers, scholarship recipients, and the communities involved in the program. The theoretical basis of this research refers to the thoughts of David J. Bosch, who asserts that mission is an attribute of God (missio Dei) and the church is merely an instrument sent to carry it out. This also underpins the view that CVM's mission is not merely evangelism, but also practical service that addresses the real needs of society. The research findings indicate that CVM implements a holistic mission that focuses not only on evangelism but also on economic empowerment through agricultural and livestock training, improving the quality of human resources through formal and non-formal education, and building social and spiritual relationships within the community. This research emphasizes that CVM's application of the Christian mission is capable of providing positive transformation that encompasses social, economic, educational, and spiritual aspects of the community. This finding is expected to serve as a reference for the development of Christian mission models in other regions with relevant and contextual approaches.

This study discusses the implications of applying Restorative Justice on legal certainty and the protection of victims' rights in cases involving repeat offenders who have committed serious assault in the jurisdiction of the Tapa Police Sector, Bone Bolango. Normatively, Indonesian Police Regulation No. 8 of 2021, Article 5(e), explicitly prohibits the application of Restorative Justice for offenders who have committed repeat criminal offenses based on court rulings. However, the research findings indicate that in practice, law enforcement officials often exercise discretion to facilitate peaceful resolutions even for repeat offenders, citing the need to maintain social relationships and avoid lengthy litigation processes. This approach raises legal certainty issues, as inconsistencies between written norms and field practices can reduce legal predictability, open the door to discrimination, and weaken both general and specific deterrent effects. From the perspective of victim protection, peaceful agreements in cases involving repeat offenders risk not fully reflecting substantive justice, as victims may be in a vulnerable position due to social pressure or unequal power dynamics. This study concludes that the application of Restorative Justice to repeat offenders needs to be strictly limited through more detailed regulations and effective oversight mechanisms, so that the principles of the rule of law, legal certainty, and victim protection are upheld. Thus, Restorative Justice can remain an important instrument in Indonesia's criminal justice system without compromising legal integrity and public safety.

The family plays a central role in shaping children’s growth and well-being, particularly in marginalized communities where access to education and healthcare is limited. This study aims to describe the forms of family support in improving the well-being of children at Sanggar Anak Sungai Deli, a non-formal educational institution located along the banks of the Deli River in Medan City. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, the research involved observations, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The informants included families of children, sanggar administrators, and children actively participating in the program. The findings reveal that family support is manifested in six main indicators: (1) positive emotional relationships, (2) provision of safety and comfort, (3) instilling positive values, (4) support for education and talent development, (5) protection from negative influences, and (6) partial fulfillment of basic needs. These supports contribute significantly to children’s emotional, social, and intellectual well-being, although the physical aspect remains less fulfilled due to economic constraints. Despite limited financial resources, families demonstrate care and commitment to supporting their children’s development. Sanggar Anak Sungai Deli serves as an essential partner by providing a safe and supportive learning environment. This study concludes that family involvement, combined with community-based interventions such as SASUDE, is crucial in ensuring holistic child well-being. The implications highlight the importance of strengthening collaboration between families, community organizations, and government to address gaps in child welfare programs in marginalized areas.  

In inheritance law, the Qur’an typically stipulates a 2:1 distribution, where men receive two parts and women one. This division is often justified by the idea that men are responsible for earning a living, with women not typically involved in financial support. However, feminist exegete Amina Wadud argues that this distribution is not based on justice. She emphasizes that the primary consideration in inheritance should be the benefits the heirs will receive, rather than gender. This study aims to analyze inheritance distribution in Qs. al-Nisā’ verses 11-12 from Amina Wadud's feminist perspective, specifically her critique of the 2:1 ratio. The study is a qualitative library research study titled "Inheritance in the Review of Justice and Benefit Perspective Amina Wadud." The primary source is Wadud's book Women in the Qur'an and the Qur'an According to Women, with secondary sources drawn from related articles and journals. The findings indicate that while the Qur'an generally assigns men a larger share, inheritance is not always distributed in a 2:1 ratio. The division varies depending on factors such as family relationships, with sometimes equal shares (1:1) or a different distribution (1:2), prioritizing justice and the benefits of the heirs.

Students, as agents of change, play a significant role in instilling Islamic values and tolerance in a diverse society. One of the ways to implement these values is through the Student Creativity Week, which involves various educational, innovative, and collaborative activities. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Student Creativity Week in realizing Islamic values and tolerance in Manik Maraja Village. The research uses a descriptive qualitative approach, involving the community participatively in the planning, implementation, and evaluation stages. The results show that the Student Creativity Week successfully enhanced religious understanding among the youth, strengthened social solidarity, and fostered an inclusive attitude among residents. This program proved to be effective in building harmonious relationships among villagers and creating a more tolerant environment. Therefore, the Student Creativity Week program can be a collaborative community service model, with potential to be replicated in other villages to achieve sustainable social harmony.

In the healthcare sector, patient revisit intention serves as an important measure of hospital success, influencing financial stability, operational effectiveness, and long-term patient retention. With increasing competition, hospitals must strengthen trust, improve service quality, and maintain a positive institutional image to retain patients. This study focuses on the declining number of non-BPJS (non-insured) patients at Cinta Kasih Tzu Chi Hospital, Cengkareng, which impacts revenue sustainability. The research aims to assess how trust and customer perceived value affect revisit intention, and whether hospital image moderates these relationships. A quantitative approach was applied using a structured questionnaire distributed to 95 non-BPJS outpatients who had previously sought treatment more than once. Data were analyzed through Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) using the Partial Least Squares (PLS) method via SmartPLS software. The findings reveal that both trust and perceived value significantly and positively influence revisit intention, implying that patients with strong trust and satisfaction tend to return. Although hospital image directly influences revisit intention, it does not significantly moderate the link between perceived value and revisit intention. Therefore, hospitals are advised to enhance patient trust and perceived value while sustaining a credible institutional image to strengthen loyalty among non-BPJS patients

This study aims to analyze the management of short-term debt and its impact on cash flow smoothness in Toko Madura micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in Surabaya City. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, the research was conducted through in-depth interviews and field observations at Toko Madura Barokah located in Pasar Wonokromo. The results show that short-term debt management is characterized by flexibility and trust-based relationships between store owners and suppliers, with payment terms ranging from 10 to 14 days. Debt management is carried out adaptively according to sales fluctuations and cash flow conditions. The average ratio of short-term debt to monthly cash flow is 17.2%, indicating that the debt level remains within a safe and manageable range. However, the financial recording system remains simple and lacks separation between personal and business finances, which may cause inaccuracies in cash control. Overall, short-term debt management contributes positively to cash flow stability through trust and payment discipline. Nevertheless, improving financial literacy and implementing a more structured accounting system are necessary to support sustainable business growth and better financial decision-making.
