The phenomenon f fatherly parenting plays a vital role in shaping the emotional and social experiences of daughters, particularly in forming romantic relationships. The role of fathers is often overlooked in parenting, even though it significantly influences the development of a daughter's personality and interpersonal relationships. Fathers who are emotionally involved can provide a sense of security, confidence, and an understanding of love. This study aims to describe the experiences of young adult women regarding their fathers' parenting roles and their impact on romantic relationships. This study adopts a phenomenological approach using purposive sampling techniques. The research was conducted over four months, and data were collected through interviews and observations. Five participants aged 18 to 25 years, with experiences of both positive and negative fatherly parenting and a history of romantic relationships, were involved in this study. The results show that positive fatherly parenting fosters positive romantic relationship experiences, such as the ability to build trust and intimacy. Conversely, hostile fatherly parenting leads to negative relationship patterns, such as distrust or a need for emotional validation. The lack of fatherly parenting also drives women to seek a father figure in others and to feel less trustful toward their partners. These findings demonstrate that the father's role in parenting has a significant impact on young adult women's romantic relationships.

This study explores the evolution of Islamic economic thought from its classical roots to contemporary interpretations, highlighting significant paradigm shifts and the contributions of influential figures throughout its history. During the classical era, Islamic economic thought drew heavily from the teachings of the Qur'an and Hadith, as interpreted by scholars such as Abu Yusuf, al-Ghazali, and Ibn Khaldun. At the heart of this thinking are the principles of social justice, the prohibition of usury, and the need for a fair distribution of wealth. Recently, there have been important updates in Islamic economic thought, shaped by the global socio-economic context and the imperative to address modern economic problems. Key figures such as Muhammad Baqir al-Sadr and Umar Chapra have played an important role in developing a more relevant Islamic economic theory, combining concepts such as Islamic banking, macroeconomics, and entrepreneurship based on Islamic ethics.

This research aims to analyze the influence of economic growth, tax sector state revenue, Human Development Index, and poverty on the corruption perception index during the reform era in Indonesia from 1999 to 2022. Corruption can reduce the productivity of public spending, distort resource allocation, and slow down economic growth.  This study uses multiple linear regression analysis tools on time series data from Indonesia for the years 1999-2022, with the dependent variable being the Corruption Perception Index (CPI), which reflects public perception of the quality of corruption in the country. A higher CPI index value indicates a lower level of corruption. The independent variables in this study are economic growth, tax sector revenue, HDI, and poverty. The research results show that simultaneously, the independent variables have a significant effect on the dependent variable, while partially, the economic growth and HDI variables have a significantly positive effect on the CPI, whereas the tax sector revenue variable has a significantly negative effect. However, the poverty variable has no significant effect on the CPI. The goodness of fit test results indicate that 95% of the influence of the independent variables on the dependent variable can be explained by the model, while 5% is explained by variables outside the model.
