Education is a conscious effort that is held to explore and develop human capabilities so that a transformation occurs, both in terms of knowledge, behavior, or norms that have been set. Islamic education is different from other education because its size does not only look good or bad. Islamic education must be based on the Koran, which in Islam functions as the main source of law. In addition, Islamic education must also be based on the hadith. The final achievement is that humans have skills in aspects of education that are in harmony with these two main sources of law. So, the final goal is not just to change behavior, or thinking power, but everything must be in tune with the guidance of the Koran and Hadith. Educational and teaching activities can achieve success if supported by good components. Among the main components is the method. That is the way that must be taken by a teacher in educating his soul so as to achieve goals that are in line with the guidance of the Qur'an and Sunnah. The use of appropriate methods will largely determine the outcome of the education and teaching process. Thus, educators must be skilled at choosing and using methods to match the material and teaching material. Not to forget, as educators need to pay attention to several principles in the use of methos,so that teaching methods will lead to successful teaching    

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Regional Revenue Agency (Bapenda) in collecting hotel taxes in Dumai City. Using a qualitative approach with a case study method, this study explores the factors influencing the effectiveness of tax collection and the obstacles encountered. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation, which were then analyzed using thematic analysis. The results indicate that although the objectives of tax collection have been clearly defined and provide benefits for regional development, several obstacles still hinder the achievement of the expected targets. The main obstacles include a lack of coordination between relevant parties, immature planning, and policies that are not yet fully effective. In addition, bad debts on hotel taxes are a major challenge that affects the effectiveness of tax collection. This study also found that a broad socialization strategy and the provision of adequate infrastructure have helped increase taxpayer awareness and compliance. However, supervision and control need to be improved to prevent irregularities and ensure taxpayer compliance. By improving coordination, more detailed planning, data-driven policies, more intensive education, the use of information technology, and stricter supervision, it is hoped that the effectiveness of hotel tax collection can be significantly improved. This research provides an important contribution to the Dumai City Bapenda and other local governments in their efforts to improve the effectiveness of regional tax collection. It is hoped that the recommendations provided can be implemented to overcome existing obstacles and increase regional original income (PAD) in a sustainable manner.

Education is an important thing in human life. Every individual develops well through education. Education makes many contributions for every individual in developing their humanity. The achievement of the lofty goals of education may be hampered if the implementation of education is not managed professionally. Apart from that, education may be held far from the spirit of truth and applicable ethical norms. In this context, the role of administrative philosophy is needed to direct the parties involved in the implementation of education to explore and discover the deepest goals of education. Since the proclamation, the Indonesian nation has had the Pancasila philosophy which is the basis of the state as well as the basis of national education. Pancasila has been used as a guideline in making national education policies in general and in renewing the content of education in particular. This means that the direction of planning, policy and implementation of education should lead to the goals as outlined by the 1945 Constitution and Pancasila as the basis of national education.

Using plant-based pesticides is a good step for agriculture that is more environmentally friendly than chemical pesticides. Vegetable pesticides are more natural and safer for the environment than chemical pesticides because they are made from natural ingredients. The impacts that will be felt if the use of chemical pesticides continues will have an impact on animals and humans. Chemical pesticides have the most significant effect, namely causing the death of several other animals besides organisms. In addition, exposure to chemical pesticides also has significant effects on human health. Achievements in this community service can increase knowledge about pest control by using vegetable pesticides from onion skins which can be used as natural pesticides and the community can switch from using chemical pesticides to vegetable pesticides which are more environmentally friendly.

Economic growth serves as a crucial indicator in evaluating the well-being of a country. This study analyzes the economic growth of Indonesia and Malaysia from 2017 to 2023, taking into account the impact of inflation on the achievement of economic goals. The research employs a qualitative descriptive method with a literature review through literature analysis. The results reveal that the economic structures of both countries share similarities, particularly in the sectors of agriculture, forestry, and mining.
