This study aims to test the influence of digital literacy and the use of accounting applications on the effectiveness of MSME information systems with user competence as a mediating variable. The research sample amounted to 100 MSME actors in Gresik City who were selected using purposive sampling techniques according to the research criteria. Data testing was carried out using a quantitative approach using the Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS) method through the SmartPLS application. The results of the study show that digital literacy and the use of accounting applications have a positive effect on the effectiveness of MSME information systems. Meanwhile, user competence does not have a significant effect and is unable to mediate the influence of digital literacy and the use of accounting applications on the effectiveness of information systems. This research is expected to provide benefits for MSME actors in increasing the use of digital technology and accounting applications, as well as become an academic reference for future research. The limitations of this study lie in the scope of the MSME scale, which has not considered external factors, and the research model that has not fully explained the role of user competence as a mediating variable.

The rapid spread of hoaxes and disinformation in the digital era poses serious challenges to social cohesion, societal stability, and the internalization of moral values, particularly within Muslim communities. The circulation of unverified information has the potential to trigger conflict, polarization, and a decline in public trust. This study aims to explore digital literacy as an ethical and religious instrument in actualizing the Islamic principle of amar ma’ruf nahi munkar in the contemporary digital sphere. Employing a qualitative library research approach, the study examines classical Islamic sources, including the Qur’an and Hadith, alongside contemporary literature on digital communication ethics and digital citizenship. The findings indicate that digital literacy from an Islamic perspective extends beyond technical competence in accessing and disseminating information; it represents a form of moral responsibility (amanah) grounded in honesty (ash-shidq), prudence, and accountability. Practices such as information verification (tabayyun), clarification, and corrective engagement in online spaces are concrete expressions of amar ma’ruf nahi munkar. Strengthening ethically grounded digital literacy is therefore essential for fostering a healthy, just, and civilized digital public sphere.

This article develops a conceptual model that explains how social capital and digital literacy interact in shaping Islamic financial literacy in the digital era. Through a comprehensive literature review, this study synthesizes theories, empirical findings, and thematic patterns derived from reputable academic journals, scholarly books, and institutional publications. The analysis shows that social capital functions as a value foundation encompassing trust, collective norms, and behavioral orientations that influence individuals’ initial acceptance of sharia-based financial practices. Information obtained through family, religious communities, and social networks becomes a crucial entry point that shapes early perceptions and preferences toward Islamic financial products. Meanwhile, digital literacy strengthens individuals’ ability to access, evaluate, and verify Islamic financial information independently through various digital content such as online articles, infographics, educational videos, and Islamic fintech platforms. The interaction between these two dimensions creates a layered learning process in which social capital provides contextual value and trust, while digital literacy deepens technical understanding in a more objective manner. This article contributes theoretically by proposing the Social Capital–Digital Literacy Integrative Model and offers practical implications for Islamic financial institutions, regulators, and fintech providers in designing more effective strategies to enhance Islamic financial literacy in society.

The rapid development of digital technology has significantly influenced the lives of young children, affecting their cognitive, social, and emotional development. However, this advancement also presents challenges for parents in guiding their children to avoid the negative impacts of digital exposure. This article aims to explain the importance of digital literacy for parents, identify the main challenges they face in managing children’s technology use, and offer effective strategies for digital parenting. The method used is a literature review based on recent academic sources. The findings show that parents’ digital literacy plays a crucial role in shaping healthy digital behavior in early childhood. Parents with high levels of digital literacy can act as filters, facilitators, and role models in using technology wisely. Collaboration among families, educational institutions, and the government is also necessary to create a safe and supportive digital environment for children’s optimal development.

The rapid development of digital media has created a communication pattern in which information spreads quickly and often without verification. In this situation, hoaxes and disinformation have emerged as a serious threat that affects social trust, religious harmony, and individual behavior in online spaces. This study aims to explore Qur’anic principles that are relevant for building critical awareness, especially through the momentum of Nuzul Qur’an as an illustration of revelation that guides people in understanding messages accurately. The research uses a qualitative descriptive-analytical design with a thematic tafsir approach to examine verses related to verification, prohibition of false speech, and speaking truth. Primary sources consist of the Qur’an and classical as well as modern commentaries, while secondary sources include books and scientific articles on digital literacy and misinformation. The findings show that Qur’anic principles such as tabayyun, avoidance of false accusation, and responsibility in communication are aligned with core elements of digital literacy that require users to identify reliable sources and evaluate messages before sharing. The conclusion suggests that integrating Qur’anic ethical values into digital literacy programs can reduce the circulation of hoaxes and strengthen a culture of truth in digital interaction.

The era of digital disruption has brought significant changes to people's behavior, including investment activities. Retail investors have increasingly easy access to the capital market through digital applications such as Neo HOTs, Bibit, and Stockbit. However, this convenience is not always accompanied by adequate digital financial literacy. This study aims to explore retail investors' experiences using digital investment applications and understand their perceptions of sustainable investing in the Society 5.0 era. The research method used a descriptive qualitative approach with in-depth interviews with a number of active retail investors. The findings indicate that the majority of retail investors are attracted to investing due to ease of access and promotions, but many still make impulsive decisions based on social media trends (fear of missing out/FOMO). A small number of investors are beginning to understand the importance of sustainable investing (ESG), although it has not yet become a primary consideration in investment decisions. This study emphasizes the importance of more targeted digital financial literacy so that people can use technology wisely, maintain personal financial sustainability, and contribute to sustainable development.
