Basically, In order to have a lasting, contented, and successful family, a man and a woman must physically and spiritually join via marriage. This marriage contract gives both parties the right to enjoy a relationship in accordance with the Shari'a. This study aims to reveal and compare the views of scholars from various schools of thought (Hanafiyah, Malikiah, Syafi ivah, and Hanabilah) regarding temporary marriage, namely “Nikah Mutah,” which is viewed from the legal arguments of each scholar. The descriptive technique was used in this study. which describes the thoughts of previous scholars regarding mut'ah marriage and the legal basis they used. The study's findings indicate that the ulama agree to prohibit mutah marriages absolutely, based on several propositions and the Qur'an, such as surah An-Nisa (4) 24. Al-Mu'minun (23): 5-7, and At- Thalaq (65) 1, as well as various hadiths. The consensus of scholars also supports the prohibition of mut'ah marriage. On the other hand, the Svi'ah view regarding mut'ah marriage is that this marriage is permitted, referring to QS An-Nisa (4): 24, which is considered to be related to temporary marriage. This mut'ah marriage allowed during the period the beginning of Islamic history, and some narrations from Shiite sources indicate that the law on mut'ah marriage was never canceled by the Koran or the Prophet Muhammad SAW. According to Shiite scholars, the prohibition on mut'ah marriage occurred during the time of Caliph Umar bin Khattab, which they consider as an ijtihad.

This study explores the role of Hadith as a foundation for instilling the values of religious tolerance, with a focus on shaping the awareness of Generation Z in the contemporary era of technology and globalization. The Qur'an and the Hadith of Prophet Muhammad SAW emphasize respect for religious diversity and firmly prohibit intolerance, offering a strong theological basis for promoting harmonious coexistence. As a digitally active generation, Gen Z possesses significant potential to disseminate tolerance values through online platforms. Nevertheless, they face challenges such as disinformation, hate speech, and the spread of distorted religious interpretations, which may hinder the cultivation of inclusive attitudes. This research highlights that the integration of tolerance values requires methods aligned with Gen Z’s characteristics, including interactive discussions, the strategic use of social media, and educational approaches rooted in prophetic principles. By adopting such methods, religious teachings can be contextualized in a manner that resonates with Gen Z’s communication styles and digital literacy levels. The study employs a qualitative literature review to analyze relevant Hadith texts, their interpretations, and contemporary strategies for value transmission. The findings suggest that a combination of religious education, digital engagement, and community-based initiatives can effectively foster interfaith understanding and reduce intolerance among youth. Ultimately, this research offers a practical framework for educators, religious leaders, and policymakers to strengthen inter-religious tolerance by enhancing the comprehension and application of Hadith in addressing the unique challenges of the digital era.

The development of modern Muslim fashion has significantly transformed the way Muslims express their identity, especially in Indonesia, the country with the largest Muslim population. However, the growing popularity of “modest wear” fashion does not always align with Islamic principles as taught in the Hadiths. This study aims to explore the Islamic dress code based on thematic Hadith analysis (maudhū’ī), identify core dressing principles in Islam, and evaluate their implementation within the modern Muslim fashion culture. This research applies a qualitative method through library research, employing the thematic approach to collect and analyze Prophetic traditions related to clothing. The findings reveal that Islamic principles of dress include covering the ‘awrah (private parts), avoiding excessive adornment (tabarruj), refraining from imitating the opposite gender or non-Muslim cultures, and upholding modesty and dignity. These hadiths offer ethical guidance that is not only normative but also practical in the modern socio-cultural context. The study concludes that modern Muslim fashion can serve as an effective medium for visual da'wah if it remains aligned with Hadith-based values. The synergy between religious principles and creative design can form a relevant and dignified Islamic lifestyle rooted in the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad saw.

Leadership in Islam, highlighting its ethical and pragmatic foundations. Good governance in Islam is deeply rooted in the principles of al-amanah (trustworthiness) and al-'adalah (justice), which are not only administrative norms but also moral and spiritual obligations. Leadership in Islam is understood as a sacred mandate carried out by the caliph, imam, and ulil amri, each of which has spiritual, moral, and executive dimensions. Prophetic qualities in the form of shidq (honesty), amanah (trustworthiness), fathonah (intelligence/wisdom), and tabligh (accurate delivery/communication) are ethical foundations that are inseparable from effective leadership. The qualifications of a Muslim leader are very diverse, ranging from faith, noble morals, justice, knowledge, courage, and devotion in public service. The way of government of the Prophet Muhammad SAW was inclusive and tolerant. The period of the Khulafaur Rasyidin (Abu Bakar, Umar, Uthman, and Ali) shows how government administration developed, even though it was full of challenges. This history proves that the principles of good governance in Islam remain strong, even in difficult times.

Public service in the Islamic perspective is a comprehensive concept, integrating religious principles with governance practices to achieve justice, efficiency, and public welfare. This concept is based on the Qur'an and Hadith, which emphasize values ​​such as justice (*'Adl*), responsibility (accountability), consultation (*Shura*), and welfare (*Maslahah*). Public service in Islam is not only a transaction, but also has moral and spiritual aspects, where providing the best service is considered as worship and a form of obedience to Allah. The scope of public service in Islam includes various important sectors such as education, health, law, and socio-economic welfare. Islamic history, especially in the era of the Prophet Muhammad SAW and the Khulafaur Rasyidin, shows concrete examples of the application of these principles, such as the construction of mosques as centers of learning, the establishment of hospitals, and the management of Baitul Mal for the fair distribution of resources. In the modern context, especially in Indonesia, Islamic values ​​have proven to play an important role in bureaucratic reform and improving the quality of public services. Despite facing obstacles such as lack of resources and integration between institutions, the application of Islamic principles in public services—as seen in Islamic hospitals and Islamic travel agents—shows the possibility of producing more just, humane, and quality services. Thus, the Islamic approach to public services provides an ethical framework that is flexible, responsive, and focused on the welfare of society.  

Instilling Islamic art values ​​from an early age is a strategic step in shaping children's character based on local spiritual and cultural values. One potential approach to achieving this goal is through the introduction and learning of traditional Islamic musical instruments, such as the gendang habsyi. The gendang habsyi, as a musical instrument that is identical to the poems of praise to the Prophet Muhammad SAW, has high educational and spiritual value, and is able to attract children's interest through its rhythmic and interactive elements. This article aims to examine the role of the gendang habsyi in fostering elementary school children's interest in Islamic art, both from musical, educational, and social aspects. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, this study involved observation and interviews with art teachers, students, and parents at an Islamic elementary school. The findings show that the introduction of the gendang habsyi is not only able to arouse children's interest in Islamic musical art, but also strengthen their love for Islamic culture, foster a spirit of togetherness, and increase children's self-confidence in expressing themselves positively. In addition, the fun and contextual learning method through the habsyi drum game has proven effective in building an inclusive and meaningful learning atmosphere. Therefore, the integration of habsyi drums in the art curriculum at the elementary school level is worth considering as one of the strategic alternatives in Islamic art education based on local culture.

Understanding the legal system before the arrival of Islam is essential to trace the social, cultural, and spiritual transformation of society, especially Arab. The pre-Islamic legal system, known as the Jahiliyah legal sistem, reflects the social reality of the time and is the main comparison for the radical changes brought by Islam. This study aims to provide an explanation of the forms of law, their characteristics, and sources of law that applied in the pre-Islamic period (Jahiliyah) before the arrival of the Prophet Muhammad SAW. This study uses a qualitative approach with a historical descriptive method. Based on the results of an in-depth study of the pre-Islamic legal sistem (Jahiliyah), it can be concluded that the law in the pre-Islamic period was unstructured, particularistic, and heavily influenced by customary power and tribal dominance.

This study aims to explore behavioral leadership theory from an Islamic perspective, particularly in the context of education. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, the research examines how Islamic values such as syura (consultation), amanah (trust), ‘adl (justice), and khalifah (stewardship) are reflected in the behavior of educational leaders in Islamic institutions. Data were collected through literature review, in-depth interviews, and participatory observation. The findings indicate that effective leadership behavior in Islamic education involves a balance between task orientation and relationship orientation, as outlined in behavioral leadership theories. Prophet Muhammad SAW is presented as the ideal leadership model who combines strategic vision with strong spiritual and moral values. These findings suggest that behavioral theory can be applied to evaluate and improve leadership styles in Islamic education that are not only professional but also grounded in Islamic principles

A discussion on Islamic morality and ethics is the purpose of this paper. We see many modern generations paying little attention to how to apply morality in their daily lives. Morals and ethics are human behaviours in daily life that have been instilled. Morals come from the Qur'an and the Hadith of the Prophet Muhammad and include what is good, bad, right, and wrong in one's actions. Meanwhile, ethics come from the culture and customs of the local community. In this paper, the author discusses the meaning of morals and ethics, human relationships with God, humans, and nature. Protest is a legitimate form of expression in a democratic society. In Islam, protest is also recognised as the right of everyone to voice injustice and bias. However, protests must also be carried out with ethics that are in accordance with Islamic teachings. The ethics of protest can be explained in the hadith, namely: Protests must be carried out peacefully and not violate the law. This is in accordance with the hadith of the Prophet Muhammad SAW, "Whoever sees an evil should change it with his hand. If he is unable, then with his tongue. If he is unable, then with his heart. And that is the weakest faith." (HR Muslim). In this Hadith, the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) teaches that protests should be done in stages, starting with the lightest action, namely giving a direct response. If you are unable to do so, then you can protest verbally, for example by expressing your opinion or criticism through the media. If that is no longer possible, then protest can be done in the heart, i.e. still rejecting evil, but not taking actions that can lead to violence or riots. Protest must be based on truth and justice. This is in accordance with the hadith of the Prophet Muhammad (saw), "Indeed, Allah is true and loves truth." (Narrated by Bukhari) In this hadith, the Prophet Muhammad (saw) affirms that protest must be based on truth and justice. This means that protest must be done because of real injustice, not because of personal or group interests.

Public finance is a key element in state governance, especially in the collection and allocation of funds for public services and government. In the Islamic tradition, the concept of public finance has developed since the time of the Prophet Muhammad SAW with sharia principles such as justice, transparency, and accountability to achieve prosperity (falah) in the world and the hereafter. In the modern era, Islamic public finance faces new challenges and opportunities, especially through digitalization and economic globalization. Technologies such as blockchain and big data open up opportunities to increase the effectiveness and openness of Islamic public financial management. Innovations in sharia financial instruments such as zakat, waqf, and sukuk further strengthen the contribution of Islamic public finance to social and economic development. However, challenges such as low public understanding of sharia finance, gaps in access to technology, and the need for supporting regulations and infrastructure are still obstacles. Issues of fiscal sustainability, debt management, and the development of adaptive sharia instruments are also important concerns in the dynamics of the global economy.

In this article we discuss Pranks and Gimmicks from a Hadith Perspective. The issue of pranks and gimmicks has now become commonplace and often occurs in the public domain. Hadith is the second source of law after the Al-Qur'an and as a proposition containing ethical norms is also a relevant reference for addressing this issue. Therefore, this article aims to discuss the issue of pranks and gimmicks from a hadith perspective and how to apply the hadith in carrying out pranks and gimmicks. Pranks and gimmicks can be done as long as they promote the truth without causing anything negative to society and the people around them and vice versa. Which is explained from the Hadith which contains the Prophet Muhammad SAW's prohibition regarding the action of taking something even if the aim is to joke by lying. This research uses library research. By studying books, writings, reading books and journals and rivieuw literature from other references. As well as collecting hadiths related to the object being studied. This research aims to open up the public's perspective regarding prank and gimmicks trends so that people can review the principles of the Koran and Hadith. Pranks and gimmicks may be carried out on condition that they prioritize the principles of truth and do not harm the people around them. 

Islam after the death of the Prophet Muhammad SAW experienced a golden age. The peak of this glory was not seen from the size of its territory, but from the progress of various sectors such as art, culture, building architecture, and education. All of this success was achieved during the Abbasid Dynasty. This dynasty was different from the previous empire, namely the Umayyad, which focused more on expanding the territory of da'wah. In this short and simple article, the development of art, especially architecture, during the Abbasid Dynasty is discussed, which is one indicator of the progress of the Baghdad Caliphate. Architecture is the work of an architect designed to build spaces in a building with certain functions and purposes. The royal palace building is an architectural design that is formed according to the development of the times and contains certain meanings in each of its arrangements. This article aims to explain the architectural style of the Abbasid Caliphate palace, including its types and the influence of other architectural styles in its construction. The method used is a literature study (library research) by collecting data from various relevant literature. The results of this writing are expected to provide a general description of the characteristics of palace architecture during the Abbasid Dynasty.
