Arabic literature has undergone significant development from pre-Islamic times to the modern era, reflecting social, cultural and intellectual changes in Arab civilization. Changes in literary works, whether in the form of poetry, prose, or novels, have also influenced the development of the Arabic language in terms of vocabulary, structure, and style of expression. This study aims to analyze how the evolution of Arabic literature impacts the development of the Arabic language by using qualitative research methods. The approach used is descriptive analysis with library research techniques, where data is collected from various sources, such as classical and modern literary works, academic journals, and previous studies that discuss the relationship between literature and language. The results show that Arabic literature plays a role in the formation of modern Arabic through vocabulary enrichment, syntactic innovation, and the spread of various dialects. In addition, the influence of literature on language is also seen in the context of education and mass media. By understanding the close relationship between literature and language, this research is expected to provide new insights for the study of Arabic linguistics as well as the preservation of literary wealth in language development.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the legal status of fiduciary collateral objects designated as state-confiscated assets that have been auctioned, and to examine the resolution of the state's rights in confiscating and auctioning fiduciary collateral objects in relation to the rights of financing companies as fiduciary creditors whose claims remain unsettled. This study employs a normative juridical research method using statutory, case, and conceptual approaches. The results show that fiduciary collateral objects confiscated and auctioned by the state do not automatically nullify the creditor’s rights, as the principle of droit de suite entitles creditors to claim the object or the proceeds from its sale. Regulatory ambiguity creates legal uncertainty and discourages fiduciary-based financing practices. From a justice perspective, the state must not arbitrarily execute assets without considering the legitimate rights of creditors. Resolution of the conflict between the rights of the state and creditors must be carried out proportionally through criminal, civil, or non-litigation avenues, in order to establish a balance between law enforcement and creditor protection, thereby maintaining stability in the financing sector.

The First National Congress (MUNAS) of the Indonesian Civil Servant Lecturers Alliance under the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology (ADAKSI), held on May 2–4, 2025, in Jakarta, served as a pivotal moment for the consolidation and advocacy of civil servant lecturers at the national level. This event successfully formulated the organization’s strategic direction, ratified its Statutes and Bylaws (AD/ART), and developed a medium-term work plan for 2025–2028. The inaugural MUNAS of ADAKSI also produced twenty strategic policy recommendations to the government, particularly concerning the welfare and professionalism of civil servant lecturers. In addition to electing the national executive board, the congress affirmed ADAKSI’s role as both a strategic partner and a critical counterpart to the government in higher education reform. This article not only outlines the key outcomes of the congress but also examines the contributions and impact of strengthening the institutional position of ministerial civil servant lecturers within the national education ecosystem.

This article explores the political, religious, and socio-cultural dimensions of the Fatimid Dynasty's rule in Egypt, highlighting its unique contributions to Islamic civilization. The Fatimid Caliphate, which ruled from 969 to 1171 AD, represented a significant Shi'a Islamic power that challenged the dominance of the Sunni Abbasid Caliphate. The study analyzes the origins of the Fatimid dynasty, its establishment in North Africa, and its eventual relocation of the capital to Cairo, which became a vibrant center of learning and governance. Special attention is given to the administrative reforms, religious tolerance policies, and architectural advancements initiated by Fatimid rulers. Additionally, the article examines the tensions and conflicts both internally and externally that eventually led to the dynasty’s decline. By using historical and historiographical methods, this research aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of how the Fatimid Dynasty shaped the political and religious landscape of medieval Egypt and left a lasting legacy that can still be seen in Egyptian culture and architecture today.

Online lending has become an increasingly popular financial solution in Indonesia, providing easy access to funds for people who are not fully served by traditional financial institutions. Despite offering many conveniences, the rapid growth of online lending brings various risks, such as the rise of illegal online loans, high interest rates, and the potential misuse of users' personal data. This research aims to analyze consumer protection in online loan transactions, by reviewing existing regulations, such as Law No. 8/1999 on Consumer Protection, OJK Regulation No. 77/Pojk.01/2016, and the Electronic Information and Transaction Law (ITE Law). This research uses a normative legal research method with a statutory approach that prioritizes legal materials in the form of laws and regulations as the main reference. Data collection techniques are carried out through library research, analyzing relevant regulations and related literature. The results show that although these regulations already exist, the implementation of supervision and law enforcement is still weak, resulting in many violations harming consumers. Stricter supervision from OJK, strict sanctions against illegal fintech providers, and increased education to the public about their rights as consumers are needed. With more effective supervision and clearer regulations, it is hoped that the online lending industry can develop healthily and provide benefits without harming consumers.

The rapid changes in Indonesia's socio-political landscape have highlighted the urgency of reconstructing the governance of civil society organizations, especially in balancing the tension between the freedom of association and public order. This tension has emerged as a contemporary trend filled with controversy and civil unrest. This study aims to formulate a model of governance for civil society organizations based on Islamic values, using three theoretical frameworks: Najm al-Din al-Tufi's Maṣlaḥah Theory, Robert Putnam's Civil Society Theory, and Mark Bevir's Good Governance Theory. The methodology used is a qualitative-descriptive approach, which includes data collection through policy documentation, digital media analysis, and in-depth interviews with two key informants from religious-based civil society organizations—Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) and Persatuan Islam (PERSIS). Primary sources include official government documents such as Government Regulation in Lieu of Law (Perpu) No. 2 of 2017 and Minister of Home Affairs Regulation No. 57 of 2017, alongside empirical narratives from community leaders. The research findings suggest that the social legitimacy of civil society organizations is more influenced by the practical application of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah (obligatory duties) and their ability to address the real needs of society than by mere adherence to administrative regulations. These findings highlight the gap between legality and legitimacy and emphasize that integrating the values of maṣlaḥah (benefit), social capital, and transparency is essential to strengthening civil society in a democratic state. By embedding Islamic values into the governance models, civil society organizations can better serve the community while maintaining democratic principles, creating a more inclusive and beneficial governance framework that aligns with both public needs and Islamic teachings.

 A brand is one of the most valuable intellectual assets in the business sector, serving not only as a product identity but also as a reflection of reputation and quality. However, the increasing phenomenon of brand infringement indicates the urgent need for stronger and more effective legal protection. Brand infringement brings various negative consequences, including loss of consumer trust, unfair competition, and significant financial losses for brand owners. This study aims to analyze brand infringement from a criminological perspective, identify causal factors, and evaluate the role of law in addressing such violations. The research employs normative legal methods through analysis of statutory regulations, legal and criminological theories, and a literature-based approach using secondary data obtained from books, journals, and legal documents. The findings reveal that criminology provides relevant insights through theories such as Rational Choice Theory, which explains that perpetrators calculate the risks and benefits before committing the violation, and Anomie Strain Theory, which highlights how the inability to achieve economic or social goals legally can drive individuals or groups to commit brand infringement. The classification of violations includes imitation, counterfeiting, misuse, and unlawful exploitation of brand rights. Several causal factors were identified, including weak legal supervision, limited enforcement, and the high consumer demand for cheaper counterfeit products. Furthermore, the study underlines the essential role of the criminal justice system in addressing brand infringement through the enforcement of criminal, civil, and administrative sanctions as regulated under Law Number 20 of 2016 on Trademarks and Geographical Indications. In conclusion, brand infringement is not merely a legal issue but also a criminological problem that requires comprehensive handling through effective law enforcement, stronger supervision, and increased public awareness to protect intellectual property and ensure fair business practices.

Signal processing techniques including time frequency analysis were applied to extract damage sensitive features, which were then classified using machine learning algorithms to distinguish healthy and damaged structural states. Results: The experimental findings demonstrate high damage detection capability, stable sensor performance under cyclic loading, improved reliability compared to conventional monitoring approaches, and consistent monitoring accuracy throughout the fatigue life of the specimens. The integration of embedded sensing and data driven analytics significantly enhances structural response interpretation and supports predictive maintenance strategies.

This study examines the legal uncertainty regarding the status of adopted children as heirs within Indonesia’s pluralistic national inheritance legal system. The Civil Inheritance Law (KUH Perdata), Islamic Inheritance Law (KHI), and Customary Inheritance Law each regulate adopted children differently and incompletely, thereby creating a legal vacuum. that harms adopted children socially and emotionally. This study aims to analyze the weaknesses of these three legal systems and formulate a reconstruction of the status of adopted children based on substantive justice. Using a normative approach and the theories of legal reconstruction, substantive justice, and legal certainty, this study finds that reconstruction can be achieved through strengthening the mandatory will (wasiat wajibah), revising Article 209 of the KHI, and codifying and unifying national inheritance law through an Omnibus Law model. The parameters of justice used include the best interests of the child, public welfare, and non-discrimination. In conclusion, the reconstruction of the status of adopted children as heirs is urgently needed to fill the gaps in national inheritance law in a just manner.

This research examines how Pancasila and Islamic Religious Education function as foundational value systems in shaping civil law relations and promoting private justice, analyzed through the lens of Islamic Sociological Jurisprudence. Within Indonesia’s pluralistic yet religious societal framework, civil law extends beyond formal legal provisions and reflects the living moral, social, and religious norms embedded in the community. This study adopts a normative juridical method, complemented by conceptual and sociological approaches, and is supported by an extensive review of legal literature and scholarly discourse. The study reveals that Pancasila encapsulates essential principles, including justice, human dignity, and social equilibrium, which resonate with the ethical foundations of Islamic teachings. At the same time, Islamic Religious Education contributes significantly to cultivating legal consciousness and moral responsibility among individuals, thereby encouraging a model of private justice that transcends rigid legal formalism and emphasizes societal welfare (maslahah). From the standpoint of Islamic Sociological Jurisprudence, civil law should operate as a dynamic instrument that adapts to social realities while incorporating prevailing Islamic values. In conclusion, embedding the values of Pancasila and Islamic Religious Education within civil law frameworks enhances both the legitimacy and the substantive quality of justice. This research offers a conceptual contribution toward developing a civil law system that is more responsive, equitable, and aligned with Indonesia’s socio-cultural and religious context.

This study aims to analyze the Reconstruction of Contempt of Court Regulations  in Indonesia. Contempt of court is defined as an act of contempt against the judiciary. In Indonesia, the meaning of contempt of court is only interpreted narrowly so that it is considered less inclusive of all judicial organizers. This type of research is normative legal research with a legislative, conceptual, comparative and case approach. The results of the study are that the position of the contempt of court regulation in Indonesia has been contained in a chapter in the latest Criminal Code, but its application has not been supported by formal procedures. The meaning of contempt of court in Indonesia is only interpreted narrowly, this can be seen in the latest Padal 281 of the Criminal Code which only seems to protect judges, the contempt of court regulation should  also protect all judicial organizers who are directly involved in a judicial process, namely the prosecutor, legal representatives, victims, witnesses, and all trial participants. Next, contempt of court in Indonesia also only accommodates criminal contempt and sets aside civil contempt so that there is no deterrent effect for people, officials and others who do not comply with judicial decisions. Therefore, there is a need for special arrangements related to contempt of court in Indonesia that regulate crimes (criminal contempt) and non-compliance with court orders (civil contempt).

In the digital era and the Industrial Revolution 4.0 towards Society 5.0, innovation becomes crucial, but many young people are still trapped in consuming information immediately without sufficient analytical skills. The absence of a culture of literacy and reading causes innovation that is only based on imitation. The initial message of Islam "Iqra' wa rabbukal-akram" (Read, and your Lord is Most Gracious) provides a solution, emphasizing that reading is the key to gaining knowledge, broadening your views, and developing critical thinking. Reading includes observing nature, social phenomena, and the signs of God's power, which require reflective thinking. The history of Islamic civilization shows progress triggered by the spirit of "iqra'," which gave birth to famous scholars such as Ibn Sina and Al-Khawarizmi. In the current era of globalization and technological challenges, these values ​​are becoming increasingly crucial. Al-'Alaq 3 serves as an eternal call to develop critical thinking as a moral and spiritual responsibility, linking contemporary innovation with the ability to read critically. This article is intended to analyze QS. Al-'Alaq 3 as the basis of critical thinking in Islam, encourages scientific research and creative expression of gratitude. This study applies qualitative literature methods, which combine Islamic literature and contemporary critical thinking.

The heirs' clause in the credit agreement raises legal problems because it concerns the attachment of third parties. This study aims to analyze the inclusion of heirs' clauses based on privity of contract and its legal implications for legal protection for creditors and heirs. Normative juridical method has used with regulatory and conceptual approach. The results shown that the heir's attachment clause in a credit agreement does not necessarily bind the heirs automatically because the privity of contract limits the engagement only to the parties who made the agreement. This is based on the existence of the principle of saisine in Civil Law and the principle of ijbari in Islamic Law where the heir automatically becomes the owner of the heir's legacy. However, the attachment that arises is only limited to the management of heritage property before it is distributed as inheritance. The applicability of the clause must also take into account whether there is an inheritance by the heirs, because the liability for the heir's debts only arises if the inheritance is received. If the inheritance is rejected, the creditor cannot impose payment obligations on the heirs even though there is an attachment clause. On the other hand, Islamic Law has emphasized that inheritance received by heirs is only inheritance that has been reduced by burdens, including the heir's debt. Therefore, the inclusion of the heir's clause is only a notification that reminds the heirs that there are still unfulfilled heirs' obligations, namely debts.  

This article explores the significant role of the Mamluk Dynasty of Egypt in the history of Islamic civilization during the medieval period and examines the impact of its conflict with the Ottoman Empire. The Mamluk Dynasty, ruling from 1250 to 1517 CE, was uniquely established by former military slaves who rose to power. The dynasty played a crucial role in defending the Islamic world from Mongol invasions and Crusader attacks, notably through its victory at the Battle of 'Ain Jalut. However, in its final decades, the Mamluks suffered from internal strife, corruption, and failure to adapt to modern military developments. This study employs a descriptive qualitative and historical research approach, utilizing both primary and secondary sources. The main focus is the political and military confrontation between the Mamluks and the Ottomans, culminating in two decisive battles Marj Dabiq (1516 CE) and Ar-Raidaniyah (1517 CE) which ended Mamluk rule and marked the beginning of Islamic political unification under the Ottoman Caliphate.
