Global environmental challenges require active engagement from all sectors, including education. For Muslim youth, awareness of environmental sustainability aligns with Islamic ethical principles such as stewardship (khalifah), justice (ʿadl), and social welfare (maslahah). This study examines the influence of green economy education within Islamic higher education on students’ eco-literacy, ethical awareness, and sustainable economic behavior. A quantitative approach was employed using a structured questionnaire distributed to students from both Islamic economics and non-economics programs. Data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, independent t-tests, and one-way ANOVA to identify differences in environmental knowledge, attitudes, and behavior. Findings show that students with an Islamic economics background consistently achieve higher scores in knowledge, attitudes, and behavioral engagement related to sustainability compared to non-Islamic economics students. Integrating Islamic ethical values into the curriculum provides a holistic framework for internalizing sustainability principles, encouraging students to translate ethical knowledge into practical action. Pedagogical strategies such as project-based learning, reflective exercises, and experiential programs further enhance engagement and eco-conscious behavior. The study highlights the critical role of Islamic education in fostering a generation of ethically aware and environmentally responsible students. By embedding moral and ecological principles in academic programs, educational institutions can strengthen students’ capacity for sustainable decision-making and support broader goals of responsible economic and environmental stewardship.

The rapid advancement of digital technology has significantly transformed the economic landscape, particularly in payment systems that are shifting from conventional cash transactions to the use of Electronic Money (E-Money). E-Money has become increasingly popular due to the convenience it offers, allowing users to conduct transactions anytime and anywhere without the need to carry physical cash. As this payment innovation continues to expand, it is essential to examine whether its mechanisms comply with Islamic principles, given that the use of E-Money is closely related to the values of muamalah in Islam. This study aims to identify the underlying contractual structure (akad) governing Mandiri E-Money transactions and to assess its conformity with sharia principles. It further analyzes the potential presence of gharar, riba, or maisir within the top-up and transaction processes, as well as the sharia mitigation mechanisms that may be applied. The research employs a normative approach based on classical and contemporary Islamic legal theory, supported by observational analysis of Mandiri E-Money practices. Data were analyzed qualitatively using a descriptive method and maqashid al-shariah reasoning. The findings indicate that the use of Mandiri E-Money does not involve elements of riba, gharar, or maisir, and therefore does not deviate from sharia principles. These potential risks were examined through fiqh legal maxims and DSN-MUI fatwas to ensure comprehensive sharia compliance.

Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) have the potential to be recognized as an object of Rahn Tasjily collateral because they meet the criteria of property that can be transferred in accordance with the principles of muamalah in Islamic banking. However, its implementation faces legal challenges, particularly related to the dualism between the provisions of Fiduciary Guarantee (UUJF), which contains potential riba and gharar, and the DSN-MUI Fatwa No. 68/2008, which rejects such non-Sharia elements. This study aims to analyze the position of IPR as marhun according to the principles of muamalah and to identify substantial barriers in its application in Islamic Financial Institutions (LKS), particularly in the aspects of valuation and execution. The method used is normative law with an approach to regulations and concepts, analyzed descriptively and qualitatively using secondary data. The study concludes that the conflict between UUJF and Rahn Tasjily, the high risk of gharar in valuation, and the delays in execution due to the Constitutional Court's decision, highlight the urgent need for OJK and DSN-MUI to issue technical regulations to harmonize and mitigate risks in accordance with Sharia principles.

This research undertakes a comparative analysis of the concept of divorce within the frameworks of Islamic Family Law and Buddhist Ethics. Marriage, recognized as a profound bond of both physical and spiritual union, holds significant value in both religious traditions. However, contemporary social realities reveal a high incidence of divorce, prompting a critical examination of the legal and ethical mechanisms governing its dissolution. Within Islamic jurisprudence, divorce (talak) is permitted but considered detestable by Allah, governed by stringent procedural mechanisms including talak (the husband’s right), khulu’ or gugat cerai (the wife’s right to initiate), and fasakh (judicial intervention). These processes carry clear legal implications concerning the waiting period (iddah), the possibility of reconciliation (rujuk), and the division of marital property. Conversely, while Buddhism does not explicitly prohibit divorce, the teachings of the Buddha strongly encourage spouses to exhaust all avenues for peaceful conflict resolution before considering separation as a last resort. The ethical framework in Buddhism grants equal rights to both parties to dissolve the marriage. This study employs a qualitative descriptive analytical method through library research, drawing upon primary legal texts such as Indonesia’s Law No. 1 of 1974 on Marriage and the Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI) for Muslims, alongside the Vinaya Pitaka for adherents of Buddhism. The findings indicate that while both traditions view divorce as a final option, they diverge fundamentally in their legal structures; Islamic law establishes specific, gender-differentiated rights and obligations, whereas Buddhist ethics emphasize mutual consent and personal responsibility without formal legalistic procedures. The research concludes by recommending that couples, regardless of faith, prioritize reconciliation and peace, aligning with the core principles of both religions, and urges policymakers and legal practitioners to promote harmonious family life and reconsider legal frameworks that might better serve the welfare of children and families.

Aktivitas ekonomi mempunyai hubungan yang erat dengan transaksi antara entitas ekonomi, yang terkadang menyebabkan sengketa. Dalam konteks ekonomi syariah, sengketa muncul karena perselisihan antara pelaku ekonomi yang berbisnis berdasarkan hukum ekonomi syariah terkait hak atau kepentingan. Sengketa ini bisa diputus dengan instrumen hukum yang berbagai, baik litigasi di pengadilan agama maupun metode non-litigasi seperti negosiasi, mediasi, dan konsiliasi. Penyelesaian sengketa di pengadilan agama bertujuan agar terjaminlah keadilan dan keteguhan hukum sesuai prinsip syariah. Namun, dengan semakin meningkatnya tuntutan keadilan, penyelesaian sengketa melalui pengadilan relatif lama dan kurang efektif, maka alternatif penyelesaian di luar pengadilan semakin relevan. Negosiasi sebagai salah satu proses tawar-menawar dalam sengketa ekonomi syariah sangat memfokuskan pada persiapan dan komunikasi efektif kedua belah pihak. Salah satu penyebab sengketa ekonomi pada ekonomi syariah adalah wanprestasi dalam transaksi jual beli, terutama transaksi tanah. Oleh karena itu, regulasi ekonomi syariah yang mengatur prinsip keadilan dan keseimbangan hak dan kewajiban sangatlah perlu untuk menyelesaikan sengketa tersebut secara adil dan damai. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menggali penerapan regulasi ekonomi syariah dalam penyelesaian sengketa wanprestasi, khususnya yang berhubungan dengan sengketa tanah, dengan mengidentifikasi metode penyelesaian sengketa yang sesuai dalam hukum Islam dan hukum positif Indonesia. Penelitian ini diharapkan memberikan wawasan mengenai relevansi dan penerapan hukum Islam dalam menyelesaikan sengketa ekonomi syariah, serta menyoroti pentingnya penyelesaian sengketa melalui metode yang mengedepankan keadilan dan perdamaian.

This study aims to analyze the difficulties experienced by students in understanding abstract concepts in Islamic creed (akidah) and to evaluate the effectiveness of Islamic-based animation learning media as an innovative and interactive solution. The research employs a qualitative Classroom Action Research (CAR) approach, conducted in two learning cycles using observation, interviews, documentation, and questionnaires as data collection techniques. The implementation of Islamic animation learning media demonstrated a significant improvement in students’ conceptual comprehension. The results indicate that the average understanding score increased from 35.25% in the preliminary stage to 89.25% after the final cycle, showing a substantial rise in students’ achievement levels. In addition, students’ enthusiasm, motivation, and active participation in classroom activities increased markedly when learning materials were presented through animated visualization rather than conventional lecture-based instruction. Expert validation confirmed that the developed instructional media meets pedagogical, didactic, and visual quality standards, and responses from teachers and students revealed positive perceptions regarding the relevance and attractiveness of animation-based learning. The findings highlight that Islamic-based animation learning media serves as an effective educational tool capable of simplifying and concretizing abstract theological concepts, enabling learners to construct deeper understanding through visual and contextual illustration.Therefore,the study recommends the broader application of animation-based Islamic instructional media in akidah education to enhance comprehension, engagement, and learning outcomes in schools.

This study examines the comparative fatwas of Muhammadiyah and Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) regarding the Islamic legal ruling on smoking in the Indonesian context. The research employs a qualitative method through a literature-based analysis of official documents, academic journals, and decisions from Bahtsul Masā’il and the Majelis Tarjih dan Tajdid. The findings indicate that Muhammadiyah declares smoking as prohibited (ḥarām) because it contradicts the objectives of Islamic law (maqāṣid al-syarī‘ah), particularly in preserving life (ḥifẓ al-nafs) and wealth (ḥifẓ al-māl). Conversely, NU categorizes smoking as reprehensible (makrūh) on the basis that no definitive textual evidence explicitly forbids it, while also considering socio-economic factors within society. Muhammadiyah adopts a normative-preventive approach, whereas NU emphasizes a cultural-educational one. The difference between the two fatwas reflects not a contradiction but a constructive ikhtilāf, enriching the diversity of Islamic jurisprudence in Indonesia.

This study explores the major challenges faced by moral education in the modern era, particularly within Madrasah Ibtidaiyah, where rapid technological advancement, globalization, and shifting patterns of student interaction have significantly influenced the traditional process of moral development. The purpose of this research is to analyze teachers’ strategies in revitalizing moral education, identify the supporting and inhibiting factors in its implementation, and evaluate its impact on students’ discipline. Employing a qualitative approach with a case study design, data were collected through in-depth interviews with the school principal, Islamic ethics teachers, and students, as well as observations of daily moral habituation practices within the school environment. The findings indicate that effective revitalization of moral education occurs through an integration of teacher role modeling, consistent habituation of moral practices, and value internalization supported by interactive learning methods. These strategies contribute to improved student discipline, greater independence, and more stable behavioral patterns. However, the effectiveness of these efforts is still influenced by external factors such as excessive gadget use and limited continuity of moral guidance at home. The study provides an integrative and adaptive model of moral education that aligns with the characteristics of the digital generation and emphasizes the essential collaboration between teachers, schools, and families. The results highlight the importance of a responsive, contextually relevant approach to moral development that meets the evolving needs and challenges of 21st-century learners.

The transfer of hajj quotas for deceased pilgrims is a legal and social issue that is relevant to the dynamics of the implementation of the hajj in Indonesia. This phenomenon arises as a consequence of the long waiting list for the departure of pilgrims, which causes many prospective pilgrims to die before having the opportunity to perform the worship. From the perspective of Islamic law, the hajj is personal (fard 'ain) and attached to individuals who have met the requirements of istitha'ah. However, in the context of state administration, the right to portion Hajj is seen as an administrative right that can be transferred to certain heirs in a regulatory manner. This study aims to examine the legal basis for the assignment of hajj quota based on the principles of sharia maqashid and review its implementation in the socio-anthropological context of the Indonesian Muslim community. The research method used is normative law with a conceptual and sociological approach, through the analysis of laws and regulations and developing social practices. The results of the study show that the transfer of the hajj quota does not contradict sharia principles as long as it brings benefits, guarantees justice, and avoids potential abuse. Socially, this policy reflects respect for the deceased's worship intentions, strengthens kinship values, and shows the adaptation of Islamic law in responding to the needs of contemporary Indonesian Muslim society.

Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) play a strategic role in shaping the character and noble character of the younger generation amidst the increasingly sophisticated currents of modernization and digital challenges. This study aims to examine the process of character formation of students' noble character through habituation of attitudes at the Muhammadiyah Ibnu Juraimi PPTQ, as well as to understand the strategies, challenges, and roles of various parties in supporting this character development. The research method used is a qualitative approach with a case study type, through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The results of the study indicate that habituation of attitudes is the main strategy, which is realized through teacher role models, enforcement of discipline, routine worship such as qiyamullail, sunnah fasting, recitation of the Qur'an, and social habits such as respect and the use of Islamic greetings. The main challenges in implementing guidance are differences in student backgrounds, the motivation of administrators who still lack awareness in guiding children, and the negative influence of gadgets. Efforts to resolve this are carried out by limiting gadget access, strengthening role models, and involving students' guardians in supporting children's development. The conclusion of this study confirms that the formation of noble character is a long process that requires consistent habituation, contributions between teachers, students, administrators, and guardians of students, as well as overcoming external challenges wisely.

A comparison between classical and contemporary interpretations regarding the law of theft contained in Surah Al-Mā’idah verse 38, which stipulates the punishment of hand amputation for theft. This verse has long been the basis of Islamic jurisprudence, but its interpretation has evolved over time. The method used is qualitative with a literature study approach, which examines classical sources of interpretation such as Tafsīr al-Qurṭubī and contemporary interpretations such as al-Mishbāḥ. The research findings show that classical interpretations view this verse textually and normatively, with a focus on the application of hudud law as a form of justice and protection of property rights, as well as the imposition of strict conditions to avoid misuse. Meanwhile, contemporary interpretations view this verse contextually and humanistically, paying attention to social, economic, and humanitarian conditions. The punishment of hand amputation is understood not only as physical punishment, but also as a tool for moral education, crime prevention, and protection of community welfare. Although both share the same goal of upholding justice and safeguarding the welfare of the people, contemporary interpretations emphasize a more flexible application of law to align with the values ​​of social justice in the modern era. Thus, this study emphasizes the importance of contextualizing the understanding of Islamic law without neglecting the principles of sharia, which balance justice, humanity, and the welfare of the people.

This study explores the relevance of Imam Al-Ghazali’s educational philosophy to contemporary Islamic education in responding to current moral, social, and educational challenges. Using a library research method, the study systematically examines Al-Ghazali’s views on educational goals, curriculum orientation, the role of teachers, and instructional methods, and then contextualizes these perspectives within the dynamics of modern educational systems. The analysis highlights how Al-Ghazali’s educational thought addresses issues related to moral decline, character formation, and the imbalance between intellectual achievement and ethical development in present-day education. The findings show that Al-Ghazali’s emphasis on integrating knowledge and character, balancing cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects, and highlighting the teacher’s role as a moral exemplar remains highly applicable today. His educational framework which prioritizes spiritual development, moral formation, self-discipline, and closeness to God offers a strong, comprehensive, and relevant foundation for renewing Islamic education in the modern era and for fostering holistic learners with intellectual competence, ethical awareness, and spiritual integrity.

As a region with cultural, religious, and ethnic diversity, Bali functions as a social laboratory to understand the interaction between religious communities. The implementation of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) plays a strategic role in building harmony in a multicultural society. Therefore, comprehensive Islamic Religious Education (PAI) is needed to achieve the goal of a harmonious, peaceful, and secure community life even though they have different religions, tribes, nations and even languages. Based on the complexity of the problems above, the focus of the research is: 1) What is the strategy of educators in integrating Islamic values that are relevant to cultural diversity in Bali? 2) What are the challenges faced in implementing PAI in Bali's multicultural environment? 3) What is the PAI curriculum that supports the values of tolerance and diversity? The objectives of this study are: 1) To determine the strategy of educators in integrating Islamic values that are relevant to cultural diversity in Bali. 2) To determine the challenges faced in implementing PAI in Bali's multicultural environment. 3) To determine the PAI curriculum that supports the values of tolerance and diversity. This type of research is qualitative with a descriptive approach, informants are determined purposively. As sources of information (informants) are the Head of the Environment, Head of Customs, Muslim Community Leaders, Head of Foundation, Head of School, students and Parents. Data were collected through interviews, observations and documentation, then analyzed with the stages of data reduction, data presentation and drawing conclusions. 

The concept of money in Islamic economics is grounded in the understanding that money is not merely a medium of exchange but a trust that must be managed according to the principles of justice, benefit, and ethical conduct. In this perspective, money cannot be treated as a commodity traded solely for profit without supporting real economic activities, making practices such as usury (riba), excessive uncertainty (gharar), and hoarding incompatible with Islamic values due to their potential to create inequality and economic instability. Islamic economics emphasizes that the circulation of money must be connected to the real sector to generate added value and support sustainable economic growth. Furthermore, the management of money aims to promote fairness and social balance through mechanisms such as zakat, infaq, and charity. Thus, the Islamic view of money provides an ethical foundation and practical framework for developing a financial system that is stable, inclusive, and oriented toward societal well-being.

This study aims to examine the development of Islam during the Umayyad Dynasty as one of the important periods in the history of Islamic civilization. The main focus of the discussion is directed at the process of the emergence of Muawiyah ibn Abi Sufyan as the first caliph of the Umayyad Dynasty and his efforts to establish dynastic power after the Islamic Civil War (Fitnah Kubra). The Umayyad Dynasty played a strategic role in the transformation of the Islamic government system from an elective caliphate to a hereditary monarchy, while simultaneously expanding the territory of Islam to various regions. This study uses a literature review method with a historiographic approach, namely examining and analyzing relevant classical and modern historical sources. The results show that during the Umayyad Dynasty, Islam experienced significant developments in the aspects of politics, government administration, military, and culture. However, internal political dynamics, conflicts over the legitimacy of power, and dissatisfaction of certain groups also contributed to weakening the stability of the dynasty. This study also describes the process of decline of the Umayyad Dynasty until its eventual collapse and replacement by the Abbasid Dynasty.

The background of this activity is based on the low level of literacy among the community and the suboptimal use of mosque libraries as educational public spaces. This community service activity aims to strengthen the culture of literacy through the implementation of service learning at the Penyengat Mosque Library, Penyengat Island, Tanjungpinang City. The community service was carried out using a participatory approach through four main stages: needs identification, activity planning, programme implementation, and evaluation. The activities carried out included reading classes, discussions on books with Islamic and Malay cultural themes, and literacy visits to introduce the library's collection to the community. The results showed an increase in community enthusiasm for reading activities and strengthened the library's function as a centre for intellectual da'wah and community learning. For students, this activity provided contextual learning experiences and developed communication, leadership, and social empathy skills. Overall, this programme was effective in building a literacy ecosystem based on religious values and local culture.

This study aims to analyze the role of information technology systems in enhancing operational efficiency in modern Islamic banks. The implementation of information technology is considered essential for accelerating services, improving data accuracy, reducing administrative costs, and expanding the reach of digital financial services in the Islamic banking sector. This research employs a qualitative approach to explore processes, experiences, and the application of digital services in several Islamic banks that have implemented mobile banking, internet banking, and IT-based internal management systems. The findings reveal that information technology significantly improves operational efficiency and effectiveness through transaction digitalization, administrative process automation, mobile banking utilization, e-procurement systems, integration of digital payment features, and the adoption of fintech solutions. Information technology also strengthens data security and enhances service quality for customers. However, its implementation presents challenges such as cybersecurity risks, infrastructure readiness, human resource competence, and compliance with Sharia principles. Overall, the application of information technology systems contributes substantially to improving efficiency, productivity, and competitiveness in modern Islamic banking.

This study aims to describe the community empowerment strategy implemented by Lazis Nurul Falah in supporting Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Ketintang, Surabaya. The research used a qualitative descriptive approach with observation, interview, and documentation techniques. Data were collected directly during the distribution of business capital assistance and mentoring of beneficiaries. The results show that the empowerment program focused on improving economic independence through financial aid, business equipment, and moral support from volunteers. Although conducted modestly, the program had a significant impact on beneficiaries’ confidence and motivation to continue their businesses. It also strengthened social and Islamic values such as ta‘āwun (mutual help) and built harmonious relations between the institution, volunteers, and the community. The study concludes that empowerment based on collaboration and social proximity can create positive change and serve as an effective model to promote community economic independence.

This research is motivated by the diversity of students found in Islamic boarding schools. Islamic boarding schools are an appropriate base for instilling religious and cultural values ​​in students. Therefore, differences in race, ethnicity, customs, social class, and culture are not addressed with exclusive and fanatical attitudes to prevent conflict. The purpose of this research is to provide multicultural education management training in Islamic boarding schools as an educational alternative that can be applied to address the problems faced by students and the current multicultural society, so that each student can live side by side despite differences in harmony and peace in accordance with religious and cultural values. The research method used is qualitative with the PAR (Participatory Action Research) model. For data collection, in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation were used. The results of this study are that multicultural education management training is a preventive effort to address various problems and becomes a real solution to existing problems in Islamic boarding schools related to the religious and cultural values ​​of students. In addition to being an alternative means of solving problems, multicultural education management training is also a means of fostering students so that they do not lose their cultural roots in accordance with religious values. Thus, the implementation of multicultural education management training can be said to be successful if it can produce students who have a tolerant attitude, are not hostile, and do not conflict caused by differences in culture, ethnicity, customs, social class, abilities, and others.
