In the Islamic perspective, blood donation is not only viewed from a medical perspective, but also from the perspective of sharia law and ethics that regulate the treatment of blood and the human body. This study aims to comprehensively examine the law, ethics, and benefits of blood donation according to Islamic perspective, and to provide a systematic understanding in order to eliminate doubts in the Muslim community regarding the issue of blood donation. This study uses a qualitative method with a literature study approach. Data were collected from various library sources such as books, journal articles, fatwas, and relevant official documents, then analyzed descriptively-qualitatively to identify the main themes related to the law and ethics of blood donation in Islam. The results of the study show that the majority of scholars allow blood donation in emergency conditions to save lives, based on the fiqh principle of ad-darurat tubihul mahzurat (emergency conditions allow what is forbidden) and maqasid sharia (hifz al-nafs/protecting the soul). Blood donation is also considered a highly recommended social charity and worship, and can even reach the level of fardhu kifayah, as long as it does not endanger the donor and is done sincerely. In addition, blood donation has health benefits for both donors and recipients.

This article aims to explain the theological relationship between Israel and the Church as God's people, as discussed in biblical studies, and to relate it to the history and development of the Church in Indonesia. Using a qualitative-descriptive approach, this paper explores key theological concepts regarding Israel and the Church, examining how these understandings shape the Church’s mission, identity, and role. The study spans from the colonial era to the digital age, highlighting how historical and cultural contexts influence ecclesial expressions. The article argues that while the Church does not replace Israel as God's covenant people, it participates in God's redemptive plan through Christ. In the Indonesian context, the Church manifests its identity as God's chosen people by embracing local wisdom, cultural diversity, and a contextual mission. This dynamic relationship reflects the Church’s calling to live out its faith in Christ within a pluralistic society, contributing to nation-building and bearing witness to the Gospel in relevant and transformative ways.

By understanding the client's cultural background, the counselor can minimize potential conflicts and increase confidence in the counseling relationship. This research uses a qualitative method with a literature study to explore the challenges and solutions in multicultural counseling practice. The findings of this article suggest that sensitivity to cultural diversity is essential for successful inclusive and responsive counseling.

Along with the rapid advancement of digital technology, the practice of zakat payment has also evolved, such as by making non-cash zakat payments online. Online zakat payment offers the potential to reach zakat givers and recipients more broadly, as well as to increase efficiency in the collection and distribution of zakat funds through a digital system. However, this online zakat payment system still raises debates among the public regarding the validity of its implementation and the law, which is considered unclear because the method was not found in the time of the Prophet Muhammad SAW. Therefore, this research was conducted to examine the concept, Islamic legal review, advantages and disadvantages, as well as challenges and solutions in the application of the online non-cash zakat payment system from the perspective of Islamic law. This research uses normative legal methods in qualitative form and by conducting a literature study of literature or library materials. The findings of this research show that online non-cash zakat payments are sharia-acceptable as long as they fulfill the pillars and conditions of zakat and are carried out by official amil zakat institutions or platforms affiliated with amil zakat institutions.

A leader is a highly important position that carries significant responsibility. In the books of Hadith, there are many terms that mean leader, such as Imām, Emīr, Khalīfah, Ḥakīm, Sulṭān, Mālik, Sayyid, Jabbār, Rāʿin, Qayṣar, Kisrā, and Aʿājim. The aim of this research is to understand leadership from the perspective of the Prophet’s hadiths. The study of leadership from the hadith perspective shows that there are various terms for leadership, and each term can also have multiple meanings. The approach used in this paper is the contemporary hadith approach of Yūsuf al-Qarḍāwī. This research employs a quantitative method based on library research, such as literature, books, journals, or other scientific works. The primary sources used are hadiths on leadership found in major hadith collections and the book Kayfa Nataʿāmal Maʿa al-Sunnah al-Nabawiyyah. Secondary sources include literature, books, journals, and other scientific works that discuss leadership. This research is linear in nature because it uses only one approach from a single field of study. It also briefly covers the meanings of leadership terms from dictionaries and various scholars.

Corruption is an extraordinary crime and has a systemic impact that is detrimental to the state and society at large. To overcome this problem, the Indonesian legal system provides the option of implementing the death penalty, which is regulated in Law Number 31 of 1999 in conjunction with Law Number 20 of 2001 concerning the Eradication of Corruption. However, the application of the death penalty has raised significant debate from various perspectives, both legal, philosophical, and sociological, considering that this action is contrary to the principle of respect for human rights. This study will discuss the threat of the death penalty as a form of ultimum remedium, namely as a last resort carried out in certain circumstances, such as when corruption occurs in a crisis or disaster situation. To analyze the effectiveness and urgency of implementing the death penalty in the context of anti-corruption law enforcement, a legal-normative approach is used

Conflicts of interest in corruption cases often involve abuse of power for personal gain. This article discusses the corruption case committed by Harvey Moeis with an emphasis on how conflicts of interest play a role in the occurrence of corruption. The purpose of this study is to analyze the link between conflicts of interest and corruption cases involving Harvey Moeis, its impact on law, ethics, and reputation, as well as find solutions to prevent similar cases. The methods used were purposive sampling in the selection of data sources as well as literature study to analyze related perspectives. The results of the analysis reveal that the corruption case involving Harvey Moeis demonstrates how financial conflicts of interest can culminate in abuses of power that harm the state and tarnish the law, ethics, and reputation. Strengthening regulation, transparency, law enforcement, and public participation as well as strengthening anticorruption institutions is therefore needed to prevent corrupt practices.

This study aims to analyze the song “Bayar Bayar Bayar” using the Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) approach based on Teun A. van Dijk’s model. The song was selected due to its explicit criticism of corruption and abuse of power within the Indonesian police institution. The analysis covers three main dimensions in Van Dijk’s theory: discourse structure (macrostructure, superstructure, and microstructure), social cognition, and social context. The analysis reveals that thematically, the song represents the collective experience of society in facing bureaucratic injustice, particularly in the form of illegal levies by the authorities. Its repetitive and straightforward superstructure strengthens the main message. At the microstructural level, the use of direct language, punk-styled stylistics, and the rhetorical repetition of “bayar polisi” (pay the police) create a provocative effect and reinforce the social critique being delivered. In terms of social cognition, the song reflects the public's mental model of the police as an institution that perpetuates social inequality rather than acting as a neutral protector. From a social context perspective, the song emerges from the reality of unequal power relations between citizens and authorities, serving as a symbolic form of resistance against hegemonic power structures. “Bayar Bayar Bayar” is thus not only a musical work but also an ideological expression with critical discourse value in advocating for social justice.  

This study analyzes the differences between Western and Middle Eastern media framing in reporting the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Western media tends to portray Israel as a party threatened by terrorism, with a focus on national security. In contrast, Middle Eastern media highlight the suffering of the Palestinian people and criticize Israeli policies that are considered as occupation. By analyzing reports from media outlets such as BBC, CNN, Al Jazeera, and Al Arabiya, it was found that these framing differences influence global public opinion. Western countries are more supportive of a two-state solution with an emphasis on Israel's security, while Middle Eastern countries emphasize justice for Palestinians. This difference creates polarization that hinders the peace process and creates tension in international diplomacy. This research suggests the need for a more balanced and inclusive narrative to achieve a sustainable peace solution.

This study discusses the accountability of perpetrators of online gambling crimes in Indonesia from the perspective of applicable positive law. Online gambling is a form of cybercrime that has developed along with advances in information and communication technology, and has various negative impacts on society, including economic losses, moral damage, and increasing crime rates. The main focus of this study is to examine how legal regulations in Indonesia, especially in the Criminal Code (KUHP), the Electronic Information and Transactions Law (UU ITE), and other related regulations, regulate and ensnare online gambling perpetrators, both as the main perpetrators, platform providers, and service users. This study uses a normative juridical method with a statutory approach and a case approach. Data were obtained through literature studies and analysis of relevant court decisions. The results of the study show that although Indonesian positive law has regulated the prohibition of gambling, there are still gaps in norms and challenges in implementation, especially related to evidence, jurisdiction of cross-border perpetrators, and adaptation of law enforcement officers to digital modus operandi. The conclusion of this study emphasizes the need for synchronization of regulations and increased law enforcement capacity, including the formation of more comprehensive special regulations regarding online gambling crimes. This is important so that the criminal responsibility of the perpetrator can be enforced effectively within the framework of justice and legal certainty.

Deconstruction was introduced by a French philosopher born in Algeria, Jacques Derrida. This theory challenges the centralized and rounded mode of meaning as might be desired by the text or which is deliberately made clear by the logical relationship of the text. The “unspeakable” power of the text is the logic that is trivialized or underestimated as a secondary meaning that at times endangers the structure of the text or produces ambiguous paradoxes, which will erode the reader. Deconstruction aims to dismantle the Western metaphysical tradition such as Husserlin's phenomenology, Saussurean structuralism, structuralism. Derrida's deconstruction method is better known as metaphorical deconstruction. Metaphor here is not understood as an aspect of the expressive function of language but as an essential condition of speech. Metaphor represents one way of constructing discourse and strongly influences the understanding of various texts. Deconstruction is carried out on metaphorical texts composed by the author. Deconstruction can occur in the text itself or vice versa, we who deconstruct a text. In conclusion, deconstruction can be applied in everyday life by recognizing that other people's views on a topic and perspective may have different meanings from ours.

This article comprehensively discusses the concept of zakat and waqf from the perspective of Islamic law, as well as its regulations and implementation in Indonesia. Zakat as a religious obligation has the function of purifying property and life, while waqf is a form of almsgiving which aims to provide sustainable benefits for society. In the context of national regulations, zakat is regulated in Law Number 23 of 2011, while waqf is regulated through Law Number 41 of 2004 and various implementing regulations. Zakat management is carried out by the National Zakat Amil Agency (BAZNAS) and the Zakat Amil Institute (LAZ), while waqf is managed by officially registered nazhir. This article highlights the importance of transparency, accountability and professionalism in the management of zakat and waqf funds, as well as the urgency of building synergy between the two to support sustainable social and economic development programs. Optimizing zakat and waqf as instruments for community empowerment requires strengthening institutional capacity, supporting adaptive regulations, as well as increasing literacy and community participation.

This article explores the dynamics of Islamic educational thought through the perspective of three influential figures: Al-Ghazali, Ikhwan al-Shafa, and Ibn Khaldun. Al-Ghazali, representing the conservative school, emphasizes education as a process of character building and drawing closer to Allah. Ikhwan al-Shafa, with their rational-religious school, emphasizes the importance of logic, observation, and dialectics in acquiring knowledge. Ibn Khaldun, as a representative of the pragmatic school, emphasizes education that is oriented towards social contribution and based on reality. This article analyzes the fundamental differences and contemporary relevance of these three schools, showing that an ideal Islamic education is one that can unite the three schools within the framework of an adaptive and responsive curriculum.

This study analyzes the comparison of peer-to-peer (P2P) lending contract law in the perspective of positive law and Islamic law. Major problems in the industry include the risk of default, contract defects, and a lack of transparency. The research method used is literature research. The results show that positive laws provide a framework for consumer protection, but are often inadequate in protecting vulnerable parties. On the other hand, Islamic law emphasizes justice and the prohibition of usury, although the practice in the field is not yet fully appropriate. The study recommends collaboration between regulators and service providers to create a fair and law-abiding system. This is expected to contribute to the development of P2P lending policies and practices that are more sustainable and in accordance with sharia principles.

Shodaqoh in the perspective of Islamic law is a noble act that contains social and spiritual values. In this study, shodaqoh is understood as a gift made sincerely to help others, either in the form of wealth, energy, or attention and without any reward. In the review of Islamic law, shodaqoh is classified into four categories, namely obligatory, sunnah, makruh, and haram. Obligatory shodaqoh applies under certain conditions, such as the obligation to pay zakat or provide assistance to those in dire need. Meanwhile, sunnah shodaqoh is recommended as a form of voluntary kindness, and makruh and haram shodaqoh are related to certain circumstances, such as bad intentions or non-halal sources of wealth. This research uses a normative method with a literature approach, which aims to examine the arguments from the Qur'an and Hadith as well as the views of scholars regarding the principles of shodaqoh management in accordance with Islamic law.

This study aims to analyze the theory and implementation of decision-making in public administration and to examine its relation to Rational Choice Theory. In the context of public administration, decision-making is influenced not only by norms and bureaucratic structures but also by the rationality of the actors involved. Rational Choice Theory views individuals as rational agents who make decisions based on cost-benefit calculations to maximize personal interest. This study adopts a qualitative approach using literature review and content analysis methods on public policies and relevant case studies. The findings reveal that the implementation of decision-making in the public sector is often not entirely rational due to the influence of political, social, and cultural factors. Nevertheless, elements of Rational Choice Theory remain an important framework for understanding the motivations of bureaucratic actors in formulating and executing policies. This study recommends integrating rational approaches with normative and contextual perspectives in public administration practices to produce more effective and responsive decisions.

Cybercrime is an unlawful act committed using the internet based on sophisticated computer technology, networks and other information technologies. This crime not only affects individuals, but also financial institutions, critical infrastructure, and even national and international security. Cybercrime has characteristics that distinguish it from conventional forms of crime, namely the ability to cross geographical boundaries of countries without physical barriers so that in this case this cybercrime is referred to as transnational crime. The purpose of this study is to examine and analyze the position of cybercrime in the perspective of international law and to examine and analyze the position of cybercrime in the perspective of national law. The results of the study were obtained from the perspective of international law, cybercrime has a strategic position as a global threat that requires a cross-country legal approach. Meanwhile, from the perspective of national law, cybercrime has a central position in the reform of the Indonesian criminal law system. Through the formation and improvement of the ITE Law, as well as increasing the capacity of law enforcement and the community, the state seeks to create a safe, fair and responsible digital space

The phenomenon of victim blaming remains a serious issue in various cases of violence, including family conflicts. Children who experience physical, psychological, or neglect-related abuse often face not only violence but also social stigma that blames them for their circumstances. From a victimology perspective, victim blaming against children in family conflicts occurs due to factors such as patriarchal culture, power imbalances within the family, and a lack of legal awareness regarding children's rights. This study employs a normative juridical method with a qualitative approach to examine the phenomenon of victim blaming against children in family conflicts based on victimology theory. The findings reveal that victim blaming in family conflicts manifests in various forms, including justification of violence against children, minimization of the harm caused, and denial of the perpetrator's role. The psychological and social impacts of this phenomenon are extensive, leading to anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and difficulties in forming healthy social relationships. To address this issue, active involvement from families, educational institutions, and child protection organizations is crucial in providing education and advocacy for children's rights. Additionally, victimology perspectives can be utilized to develop policies that support victims, prevent the recurrence of family violence, and minimize the practice of victim blaming against children.
