This study aims to examine the factors influencing employee engagement in AI-driven organizations, particularly from the perspective of Artificial Intelligence (AI) leadership. This literature review focuses on the relationship between AI leadership, AI utilization, and employee engagement in contemporary organizational settings. The review was based on recent empirical studies selected according to their relevance to artificial intelligence, leadership, employee engagement, work engagement, and knowledge sharing. The analysis indicates that AI does not inherently improve employee engagement merely through its availability in the workplace. Employee engagement is likely to improve with AI-savvy leadership that is supported by meaningful AI utilization, an innovative organizational culture, effective change leadership, work engagement, and enhanced team performance. AI implementation can promote employee knowledge sharing through learning opportunities, especially when supported by paradoxical leadership and positive employee attitudes toward technology. Therefore, this review highlights the importance of human-centered leadership in enabling employees to experience AI as a source of learning, collaboration, empowerment, and meaningful contribution.

AL-MUSTAQBAL: Jurnal Agama Islam 2026 STIKes Ibnu Sina Ajibarang

This study aims to clarify the conceptual differences between measurement, assessment, and evaluation; present a comparative analysis of their characteristics; formulate concrete application examples across four Arabic language skills (istima', kalam, qira'ah, and kitabah) in madrasah; and analyze evaluation principles in creating an objective and fair assessment system. The study employs a library research method with a descriptive-analytical approach through content analysis of relevant academic sources. The findings indicate that measurement, assessment, and evaluation form a hierarchical and mutually reinforcing relationship, yet they differ in scope, function, and purpose. Measurement focuses on quantifying learning outcomes, assessment interprets those results, and evaluation provides overall judgment for decision-making. The current imbalance in Arabic language evaluation at madrasah, which often emphasizes cognitive measurement alone, can be improved through comprehensive assessment of all four language skills. This should be grounded in principles of validity, reliability, objectivity, practicality, and positive washback to ensure a fair, meaningful, and educationally sound evaluation system.

The rapid growth of digital technology and social media has reshaped communication practices, consumer behavior, and marketing approaches, particularly among Generation Z, who are widely recognized as digital natives. For this generation, social media serves as a major channel for obtaining information and exploring product references before making purchase decisions. In this environment, influencer marketing has emerged as a prominent promotional approach because it can foster audience interaction, emotional connection, and trust more effectively than conventional advertising. This study examines the role of influencer marketing in shaping the digital behavior of Generation Z in Indonesia. A qualitative literature review method was employed by analyzing secondary sources drawn from academic journals, books, and related publications. The findings indicate that influencer marketing has a meaningful influence on information-seeking behavior, decision-making processes, and the level of digital engagement among Generation Z. Influencers are commonly viewed as more credible, relatable, and authentic sources of information. Furthermore, the effectiveness of influencer marketing is determined more by credibility, authenticity, and the quality of interaction than by follower count alone. These findings suggest that companies should adopt digital marketing strategies that are more interactive, personalized, and relationship-oriented in order to engage Generation Z more effectively.

Public Wi-Fi services (Wifi_STAKat) at the State Catholic College of Pontianak continue to face technical issues, such as network speed and connection stability, as well as non-technical challenges, including the responsiveness of administrators to user complaints. This study aims to analyze user satisfaction based on the five Servqual dimensions and to map improvement priorities using the Importance–Performance Analysis (IPA) method. The relationship between Servqual and IPA is explained by mapping GAP values (perception–expectation) into the four IPA quadrants to determine the urgency level of service improvements. A 4-point Likert scale was used to avoid neutral responses and strengthen the clarity of respondents’ perceptions. The results show that all dimensions have negative GAP scores, particularly responsiveness and reliability, which are directly related to technical indicators (speed, stability, coverage) and non-technical factors (responsiveness to complaints, ease of access. The study recommends integrating an IT-based monitoring system and increasing network capacity to improve service quality.

Food safety of fresh fish is an important concern because fish is highly perishable and may be misused with hazardous preservatives such as formalin. This study aimed to determine formalin content and analyze the relationship between length and weight of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) and formalin levels in traditional markets of Gorontalo City. The study was conducted from January to February 2026 in five traditional markets, namely TPI Tenda, Moodu, Potanga, Andalas, and Sentral. Nile tilapia samples were analyzed using a formaldehyde test kit, and formalin levels were expressed in ppm. Total length and fish weight were measured, and the relationship between physical size and formalin content was analyzed using Pearson correlation. The results showed that all Nile tilapia samples tested positive for formalin, with concentrations ranging from 0.11 to 0.23 ppm. The highest formalin levels were found in TPI Tenda and Moodu, each at 0.23 ppm, while the lowest level was found in Sentral at 0.11 ppm. Fish length ranged from 19.43 to 25.61 cm, while fish weight ranged from 0.17 to 1.78 g. The correlations between length and formalin content and between weight and formalin content were both very strongly negative, with r = -0.97. These findings indicate that smaller fish tended to contain higher formalin levels. Market supervision, trader education, and formalin-free fish handling practices should be strengthened to protect consumer health.

Consumerism is an attitude, mindset, and lifestyle that prioritizes superficial desires. It is influenced by the development of globalization, which has had an impact on people’s lives, both in the cultural and technological fields. Currently, consumerism is a trend in society, with people competing to find happiness by purchasing items that suit their desires, and sometimes seeking recognition from others through consumerist behavior. The rapid development of globalization has greatly influenced today’s societal mindset, with people preferring superficial happiness without considering the impact behind it. The birth of consumerism is inseparable from the rapid development of technology, in this case social media. The presence of social media makes it easier for people to access various things, so that consumerism culture thrives because social media has provided various things. This concept is inversely proportional to Boethius’s concept of happiness. Boethius’s concept of happiness is not about superficial or temporary happiness (wealth, pleasure, and recognition from others), but true, eternal happiness. The purpose of this paper is to understand Boethius’s concept of supreme happiness, which will serve as a critique of consumerist culture. This research uses qualitative methods with a literature review approach (research gap), as well as a philosophical analysis of Boethius’s work, specifically regarding supreme happiness. The results indicate that Boethius’s concept of supreme happiness lies not in material wealth, social recognition, or pleasure, but rather in a relationship with the Divine, or transcendence. Therefore, the implication of this research is the need to reorient society’s understanding of true happiness.

This study aims to analyze the effect of profitability, company size, and type of public accounting firm on Key Audit Matters (KAM), with audit fees as a moderating variable in manufacturing sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2022–2024 period. This study used a quantitative approach with a purposive sampling method. Data were obtained from audited financial statements and annual reports published on the official Indonesia Stock Exchange website. The study sample consisted of 67 companies, with a total of 201 observations. Data analysis techniques used included descriptive statistical analysis, classical assumption tests, multiple linear regression, and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA). The results showed that profitability had a significant negative effect on KAM disclosure, while company size had a significant positive effect on KAM disclosure. The type of public accounting firm showed a significant negative effect on KAM disclosure. Furthermore, audit fees did not moderate the relationship between profitability and KAM, but they did moderate the relationship between company size and type of public accounting firm on KAM disclosure. This study demonstrates that company and auditor characteristics play a significant role in determining the disclosure of Key Audit Matters in the independent auditor's report.

Stunting remains a significant nutritional issue because it can impact a child's long-term growth and development. A history of low birth weight (LBW) is suspected to play a role, reflecting the condition of fetal growth during pregnancy. This study aimed to determine the relationship between a history of LBW and the incidence of stunting in children aged 2–5 years at the Bandarharjo Community Health Center in Semarang in 2025. This study used an analytical design with a case-control approach. The study sample consisted of 203 toddlers selected using consecutive sampling. Data were obtained from the KIA book and height measurements based on WHO standards. Analysis was performed using the Chi-Square test and Odds Ratio (OR) calculation. The proportion of LBW was 10.8% and stunting was 31.0%. There was a significant relationship between a history of LBW and the incidence of stunting (p = 0.012). Toddlers with a history of LBW had approximately a threefold greater risk of experiencing stunting compared to toddlers born with normal weight (OR = 3.059). There is a relationship between a history of low LBW and the incidence of stunting in toddlers aged 2-5 years at the Bandarharjo Community Health Center, Semarang in 2025.

This study examines the Massuru’ Tondok ritual as a space for encountering the Transcendent within the Aluk Todolo belief system of the Torajan community in the villages of Suppiran, Mesakada, and Salisali (SMS), Pinrang Regency, South Sulawesi. The ritual is understood not merely as a cultural tradition, but also as a religious expression through which the community establishes a relationship with Puang Matua as the Supreme Being. This research employs a qualitative method using a literature review approach. The analysis is based on Ninian Smart’s theory of the dimensions of religion, particularly the doctrinal, mythological, ritual, experiential, ethical, social, and material dimensions. The findings reveal that Massuru’ Tondok contains interconnected religious elements manifested through myths, ritual symbols, sacrificial offerings, prayers, customary regulations, communal participation, and sacred material objects. The ritual functions as a medium for expressing gratitude, seeking protection, fertility, and prosperity, while also strengthening social solidarity and maintaining harmony between humanity, nature, and the Divine. Therefore, this study concludes that Massuru’ Tondok represents a living religious and cultural heritage that continues to hold deep spiritual and social significance for the Aluk Todolo community.

This study seeks to examine the views of Islamic boarding school students regarding Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh) learning based on the Yellow Book as the primary reference at the Madrasah Diniyah Wustha An Nuur in Ponorogo. As a legacy of traditional Islamic scholarship, this book plays a vital role in the Islamic boarding school curriculum, although its relevance and effectiveness in modern education are often discussed among academics. Using a qualitative approach combined with descriptive-interpretive analysis, this study maps various aspects of students' perceptions, including teaching techniques, material content, obstacles encountered, and the relationship of the Yellow Book to understanding Islamic jurisprudence. The study revealed that students' responses were generally positive, but they were still hampered by limited Arabic language skills and difficulties translating the book's teachings into the context of contemporary life. Based on these findings, the implementation of more flexible learning methods such as bandongan, sorogan, and muhadlarah integrated with a contextual approach is needed to strengthen students' understanding and appreciation of traditional Islamic jurisprudence.

Technological developments have brought significant changes to various aspects of human life, including church life. These changes also impact intergenerational relationships within the congregation. This paper aims to examine the challenges faced by church leaders at GEKISIA Depok in serving Generation X, Millennials, and Generation Z, and to examine the relevance of the theological principle of Romans 12:2 in addressing these challenges. Ultimately, the author observes that differences in generational characteristics influence communication patterns, ministry models, and congregational expectations of church leadership. Therefore, church leaders in the digital age are required to be adaptive, transformative, and remain rooted in biblical values. Romans 12:2 serves as an important theological foundation for Christian leaders to experience a renewed mindset so they can serve according to God's will without being influenced by worldly patterns. Furthermore, the challenge of cross-generational leadership is not merely practical in nature, but also theological. Each generation brings different experiences, values, and perspectives in understanding faith and spirituality. Generation X tends to value institutional stability and loyalty, while Millennials are more oriented toward authentic experience and community. Generation Z, having grown up entirely in the digital age, communicates and expresses faith in ways that differ greatly from previous generations. In this context, church leaders are called to become bridges between generations, rather than simply following trends or rigidly preserving tradition.

This study aims to analyze the role of teachers’ personality competence in shaping students’ learning environments through a literature review approach. Personality competence reflects teachers’ stable, mature, and authoritative character, enabling them to serve as role models for students and influencing the creation of a conducive learning environment both psychologically and socially. The method used is a literature review by analyzing various sources such as books, academic journals, and relevant official documents. The results show that teachers with positive personality traits are able to build harmonious relationships, create a comfortable classroom atmosphere, and enhance students’ learning motivation. Therefore, teachers’ personality competence is an important factor in supporting the quality of the learning environment and the success of the learning process. In addition, findings from various studies indicate that personality competence not only affects classroom interactions but also contributes to the development of students’ attitudes, discipline, and emotional stability. Teachers who demonstrate consistency, empathy, and integrity tend to foster a sense of trust and respect among students, which further strengthens classroom engagement. Moreover, a positive teacher personality helps reduce learning barriers such as anxiety, lack of confidence, and lack of participation in classroom activities. In the context of modern education, where student-centered learning is increasingly emphasized, teachers’ personality competence becomes even more essential in facilitating active learning and meaningful student involvement. Thus, strengthening teachers’ personality competence through training, reflective practice, and continuous professional development is crucial to improving overall educational quality and achieving optimal learning outcomes.

This study aims to analyze the relationship between legal compliance and the internalization of the constitution in strengthening the concept of the rule of law through a constitutional rights approach and the theory of Islamic Sociological Jurisprudence. The main issue addressed is the low level of legal compliance, which is often caused by a weak understanding and internalization of constitutional values in society. This research employs a normative juridical method with conceptual and sociological approaches, supported by an analysis of Islamic legal theory that emphasizes the interconnection between legal norms, social values, and morality. The findings indicate that legal compliance does not solely depend on formal law enforcement mechanisms, but also on the process of internalizing constitutional values as part of public legal awareness. The constitutional rights approach positions individuals as primary subjects who possess awareness of their rights and obligations, while the theory of Islamic Sociological Jurisprudence reinforces the moral and social dimensions in the formation of legal compliance. The integration of these two approaches can create a legal system that is not only normative in nature but also responsive to the social and religious values of society. Therefore, strengthening the rule of law requires a comprehensive strategy through legal education, the internalization of constitutional values, and the enhancement of moral awareness based on Islamic principles. This study is expected to contribute both theoretically and practically to the development of integrative and contextual legal studies in Indonesia.

The phenomenon of tourist destinations experiencing a decline in popularity after a viral phase (post-viral stagnation) poses significant challenges to the sustainability of urban tourism. This study aims to test a structural model for destination reactivation in Kampung Pelangi, Semarang, focusing on the role of digital transformation in strengthening destination resilience through the mediation of competitive advantage. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected from 150 respondents and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM-PLS). The results of the hypothesis testing indicate that digital transformation has a positive and significant influence on competitive advantage (β = 0.495; t = 5.820; p < 0.001) and destination resilience (β = 0.312; t = 3.450; p < 0.001). Furthermore, competitive advantage was found to have a strong impact on resilience (β = 0.542; t = 7.115; p < 0.001). A mediation test demonstrated that competitive advantage significantly mediated the relationship between digital transformation and resilience (β = 0.268; t = 4.890; p < 0.001). This model demonstrated a predictive power of 61.2% (R2 = 0.612) for destination resilience. This finding emphasizes that post-pandemic destination reactivation requires the integration of digital capabilities that can restore differentiation and unique value propositions to achieve long-term resilience.
