In guidance and counseling, psychological assessment is used to understand the client's condition more thoroughly. However, this process requires not only technical expertise, but also ethical responsibility from the counselor. The Ethics Profession includes things like maintaining data confidentiality, obtaining client consent, and ensuring that the measuring instruments used are appropriate and reliable. If these principles are ignored, violations can occur that harm clients and tarnish the counseling profession. This article discusses the importance of ethics in the practice of psychological assessment by counselors, the various challenges that often arise, and steps that can be taken to maintain professionalism. The goal is for counselors to be able to provide services that are safe, fair, and oriented towards the best interests of clients.

It draws on theories on professional ethics and also explores the advantages and limitations of psychological assessment and its implications for counseling services. The analysis shows that maintaining professionalism depends on a high level of ethical awareness, as well as supervision and self-reflection of counselors.

This study explores the role of Islamic accounting in advancing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Indonesia using a qualitative approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with 15 informants—academics, regulators, and practitioners—and analyzed using NVivo software. The findings highlight three critical themes: (1) maqasid al-shariah principles are embedded in regulation but constrained by dual regulatory authority, identified 28 times in the coding; (2) Islamic financial inclusion is expanding through profit-sharing contracts, yet low financial literacy emerged 35 times as the most dominant barrier; and (3) the dual financial system fosters innovation but is hindered by public misconceptions (12) and regulatory overlaps (10). These results demonstrate that Islamic accounting goes beyond normative discourse, functioning as an institutional mechanism that bridges regulatory ethics, literacy, and dual systems. The limitations of this study include its small sample size and qualitative scope, suggesting the need for future quantitative validation. The novelty lies in integrating empirical field data with the SDG framework, providing practical implications for regulators, financial institutions, and academia in aligning Islamic accounting with global sustainability goals.

The findings contribute to advancing knowledge on sustainable practices and supporting global sustainability initiatives.

Various studies show that learning evaluation instruments in the field still dominantly emphasize memorization aspects and do not fully measure students' higher-level thinking skills. The mismatch between learning objectives and evaluation instruments has an impact on the low validity of learning outcomes. This research aims to identify fundamental principles in the development of test-based evaluation instruments and assess their effectiveness in representing learning outcomes. This research adopts qualitative method with descriptive-analytical research type and uses literature review technique. Data were collected through documentation study of national journal articles, textbooks, and relevant digital documents. The technique applied to analyze the data was content analysis. The findings of this study indicate that an effective evaluation instrument must fulfill the principles of validity, reliability, objectivity, and practicality, and be supported by the principles of integration, pedagogical value, accountability, and continuity. Instruments built based on these principles not only act as instruments for measuring cognitive achievement, but also as reflection tools that encourage the spirit of learning and continuous improvement of teaching.  

This study explores the ethical perspectives of genetic editing from two distinct frameworks: Islamic bioethics and global medical ethics. Both ethical systems emphasize the protection of human dignity and the prevention of harm, aligning with the broader goal of promoting health. However, significant differences emerge when addressing the issue of genetic editing, particularly in relation to human procreation. While global bioethics focuses on universal human rights, Islamic bioethics introduces religious principles rooted in Sharia law, such as Maqasid al-Sharia (objectives of Sharia) and Maslahah (public interest), to guide the ethical evaluation of genetic technologies. The findings reveal that while both frameworks agree on the importance of medical necessity, the treatment-enhancement distinction plays a critical role in Islamic perspectives, leading to more cautious stances on genetic modifications aimed at enhancing non-medical traits. The study also underscores the cultural and regional variations in Islamic bioethics, reflecting how different Islamic schools of thought impact fatwa decisions on genetic editing. In comparison, global bioethics aims to establish universal principles, often focusing on human rights, equality, and equity. The paper concludes by recommending more inclusive discussions between Islamic scholars and global bioethicists to bridge the gap between religious ethics and global standards. This would help ensure that genetic technologies are applied ethically, respecting both cultural values and universal human rights, and addressing the challenges posed by emerging genetic technologies.

This study explores the Islamic perspective on Human Rights (HR) through a qualitative approach based on literature review. It emphasizes that the principles of human rights are not foreign to Islamic teachings, but are inherently embedded in the values of Sharia derived from the Qur'an and Hadith. Islam upholds justice, freedom of religion, equality, the right to life, and social and economic welfare. The article also examines contemporary challenges faced by Muslim societies in implementing human rights, such as gender inequality, restrictions on religious freedom, and the marginalization of vulnerable groups, including the LGBT community. The findings reveal that the tensions between Islamic principles and international human rights standards often stem from differing normative foundations and interpretations of individual freedom. Therefore, a contextual reinterpretation (ijtihad) is necessary to ensure that Islamic values remain relevant and responsive to modern global challenges. The study concludes that, when applied wisely and aligned with universal humanitarian values, Islamic teachings hold significant potential to contribute to the development of a just, inclusive, and dignified society.

Cooperatives play a crucial role as business entities in enhancing the people's economy in Indonesia. Rooted in the principles of kinship and mutual cooperation, cooperatives aim to improve the welfare of their members and society at large, rather than merely pursuing profit. This study employs a descriptive analysis method to examine the role of cooperatives as a pillar of the people's economy, focusing on their contributions to microeconomic empowerment, job creation, and strengthening community purchasing power. The findings indicate that cooperatives significantly contribute to local economic growth, particularly through synergy with MSMEs (Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises), as well as by providing members with access to capital and training. However, challenges such as weak management, low financial literacy, and inadequate technological adaptation still hinder the optimization of cooperatives' roles. On the other hand, sharia cooperatives also emphasize social functions based on principles of justice and social responsibility. To enhance the contribution of cooperatives, institutional strengthening, professional management, and regulatory support from the government are required. Thus, cooperatives remain relevant as instruments for inclusive and sustainable economic development in Indonesia. 

Mathematical logic is a branch of science that studies the principles of logical reasoning and how to judge the truth of a statement. This article discusses the role of mathematical logic in everyday life, especially in education, technology, and finance. Mathematical logic has been proven to help improve critical, analytical, and systematic thinking skills, making it easier for individuals to solve various problems more effectively and efficiently. In the world of education, mathematical logic supports the development of rational, argumentative, and problem-solving skills, and is an important foundation in the science and mathematics curriculum. Teachers can leverage this logic to encourage students in building consistent reasoning and logical argumentation. In the field of technology, mathematical logic is the foundation in the development of modern computing systems, such as algorithms, programming, artificial intelligence, and data structures.

This study explores the integration of Tasawwuf (Islamic mysticism) with Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿah (objectives of Islamic law) to propose a more ethical and effective social welfare framework. The research emphasizes the importance of combining the spiritual dimensions of Tasawwuf, such as Ihsan (excellence) and ʿAdl (justice), with the legal and ethical framework of Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿah, which seeks to preserve essential human interests such as religion, life, intellect, progeny, and wealth. This integrated approach is positioned as a comprehensive model for social welfare that addresses not only material needs but also promotes spiritual growth and ethical conduct. By blending these two frameworks, the study proposes a holistic view of social welfare that fosters empathy, justice, and social care. The findings highlight that Tasawwuf contributes to the ethical application of Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿah, enhancing social responsibility and promoting greater community cohesion and solidarity. The study also discusses the practical implications of this integration in contemporary Muslim societies, including its potential to reshape existing welfare programs. Recommendations for future research and policy development emphasize the need for further exploration of this integrated approach in Islamic finance, Takaful, and Zakat, as well as the creation of frameworks that balance legal compliance with ethical and spiritual principles. The results suggest that incorporating Tasawwuf alongside Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿah can significantly improve the ethical foundation of social welfare programs, fostering a more just and compassionate society.

This study investigates how artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming Islamic journalism and digital da’wah by analyzing the ethical challenges posed by algorithmically mediated media. Employing a critical-interpretive approach, the research examines how algorithmic logic impacts the production, visibility, and ethical dimensions of Islamic content on platforms such as YouTube and TikTok. The findings reveal a growing tension between Islamic communication principles—sidq (truth), amanah (trust), and hikmah (wisdom)—and the operational values of AI systems that prioritize virality, personalization, and engagement metrics. This paper contributes to global discourse by proposing a hybrid ethical framework that bridges Islamic communication ethics with digital media accountability. It argues for an integrative model where spiritual integrity, transparency, and justice guide the development and use of AI in Islamic media contexts.

This study examines the application of the retroactive principle in the issuance of State Administrative Decisions (KTUN) by regional administrative officials amid digitalization in public services. The research aims to examine the legal basis of retroactive application within administrative law and to identify appropriate mechanisms to ensure its benefit for public administration and society. Using a normative juridical method with statutory and conceptual approaches, the research is supported by literature studies on legal documents and regulations. The findings indicate that, under Indonesian administrative law, the retroactive application of KTUN is legally permissible if it meets specific conditions outlined in the Law on Government Administration—primarily to prevent greater harm and/or to protect citizens’ rights. Retroactive KTUN may address discrepancies between the timing of decision issuance and actual administrative activities, especially in a digital governance environment. The study concludes that to ensure legal certainty and accountability, such application must be based on formal mechanisms, including the development of standard operating procedures (SOPs) and the issuance of regional head regulations as normative foundations. These measures are essential to institutionalize retroactive KTUN and ensure its use aligns with principles of legal certainty, public benefit, and good governance in regional government administration.

Criminalization in criminal law should function to limit actions that harm society legally and proportionally, but excessive criminalization can ignore the principles of justice and legality. A striking gap arises when the law is used not to protect rights, but to expand state control over individual freedom through repressive and multi-interpretable articles. This study uses a qualitative research method with a conceptual approach. The data collection method was collected using library research, then analyzed using qualitative methods and presented descriptively. The results of the study show that unlimited criminalization reflects an abuse of power that moves criminal law away from its protective function towards an instrument of repression that exacerbates inequality and weakens legal legitimacy. To return criminal law to its fair function, legislative reform is needed based on transparency, participation, and a non-penal approach that prevents state domination over individual rights.
