Unemployment remains a structural problem in Indonesia with an open unemployment rate reaching 4.91% (BPS, 2024). This study aims to examine the concept of kasb (earning a living) from the perspective of Imam Al-Syaibani and its relevance in the socio-economic context of contemporary Indonesia. The method used is a qualitative literature study with a descriptive-analytical approach, collecting and analyzing classical to contemporary literature related to Al-Syaibani's thoughts and the issue of unemployment. The results of the study show that the concept of kasb emphasizes work as worship that must be carried out in a halal manner, oriented towards a balance between individual (self-interest) and social (public-interest) interests. Al-Syaibani classifies economic endeavors into four types: ijarah (rent), tijarah (trade), zaira'ah (agriculture), and sina'ah (industry), with agriculture as the main sector that brings blessings. This concept is relevant to improving work ethic, productivity, and social responsibility, so that it can be a theoretical and practical solution in reducing unemployment. The integration of spiritual values ​​in economic activities, such as the intention of worship and fair distribution of wealth, can encourage collective welfare. This study contributes to the development of Islamic economics by offering a holistic perspective that combines moral and technical dimensions in overcoming unemployment

Ibn Khaldun is recognized as a prominent Muslim thinker who made significant contributions to the fields of economics, sociology, and politics. In his seminal work Muqaddimah, he introduced economic ideas that were far ahead of his time, including the concepts of national wealth, wage theory, market mechanisms, and the role of the state in fiscal policy. This study aims to examine the core economic thoughts of Ibn Khaldun and their relevance to current economic dynamics. Using a qualitative descriptive approach based on literature review, the study finds that many of Khaldun's ideas remain highly relevant, particularly regarding the importance of productivity, fiscal justice, and the integration of social and economic aspects in building a sustainable system. Most people know that Ibn Khaldun is one of the most famous Muslim thinkers, and he did a lot in the fields of politics, economics, and sociology.  In his monumental work, Muqaddimah discusses various long-established economic concepts, such as the market mechanism, wage theory, national wealth, and the role of the state in fiscal policy.  The purpose of this research is to study Ibn Khaldun's ideas on economics and evaluate how these impact contemporary economic developments.  The study found that many of Khaldun's ideas are still relevant today thanks to the use of descriptive qualitative methodology based on literature study. A sustainable and inclusive economic system relies on the idea of productivity as the source of economic growth, fiscal justice in the taxation system, and integration between social and economic aspects.  The results show that classical economic thought not only has historical value, but also offers solutions to many modern economic problems such as inequality, productivity stagnation, and institutional crisis.

This study aims to analyze the economic thought of Ibn Khaldun and its relevance to the modern economic system. Employing a qualitative approach through library research and document analysis, the study examines key concepts in Al-Muqaddimah, such as the economic cycle theory, market mechanisms, the role of the state, and distributive justice advocated by Ibn Khaldun. The findings reveal that Ibn Khaldun’s economic thought holds significant relevance in addressing modern economic challenges, particularly social inequality, wealth redistribution, and market regulation. Empirical studies on the implementation of zakat systems in Malaysia and modern economic theories like Keynesianism and institutional economics support these findings. Therefore, integrating Ibn Khaldun’s classical economic values into contemporary economic policies can enhance the stability, justice, and sustainability of the global economic system. This research contributes to enriching Islamic economic literature and offers practical solutions for inclusive and equitable economic development.

Ibn Khaldun's thoughts in Muqaddimah on economic cycles and taxation remain relevant in the context of modern economics. He explains that the growth and decline of a nation's economy follow a cyclical pattern, where imbalanced fiscal policies can accelerate the downfall of a civilization. Ibn Khaldun emphasizes the importance of fair and proportional taxation to avoid hindering societal productivity and investment. His views on the impact of taxation on the economy align with the Laffer Curve concept, which states that excessively high taxes can actually reduce state revenue. This study employs a literature review method to analyze Ibn Khaldun’s thoughts and their relevance to modern economic systems and fiscal policies. The findings indicate that his ideas can serve as a foundation for formulating sustainable Islamic economic policies. By applying the principles of balance between taxation, production, and societal welfare, a nation can maintain long-term economic stability.

This research discusses Ki Hajar Dewantara's concept of educational thought, focusing on character education and the formation of students' personalities, as well as the challenges and opportunities in integrating this thought into the national education system. Ki Hajar Dewantara emphasized the importance of liberating education, namely education that does not only focus on intellectual aspects, but also on the formation of students' character as a whole so that they become independent, noble, and highly motivated individuals.
