The development of the Industrial Revolution 4.0 to the Society 5.0 era presents new challenges for education, including Islamic Religious Education (PAI). PAI is required not only to transfer religious knowledge but also to shape character, morality, and 21st-century competencies. This study aims to examine the philosophical foundations, characteristics, and application of PAI learning models to ensure their relevance in modern education. The research employed a qualitative approach with a library research design, involving the exploration of primary and secondary literature, critical reading, systematic note-taking, and content analysis validated through triangulation of classical and contemporary sources. The findings indicate that PAI learning models are conceptual, theoretical, systematic, and rooted in religious, philosophical, psychological, and sociological foundations. Four main models behavioristic, information processing, social, and humanistic each have strengths and limitations, yet their integration is relevant to forming insan kamil, a holistic human being balanced in cognitive, affective, psychomotor, spiritual, and social aspects. Therefore, developing PAI learning models based on Islamic philosophy and adaptive to technological advancements is a strategic necessity to face global challenges.

The illicit circulation of narcotics in Indonesia has undergone a fundamental evolution into cyber-enabled crime, where drug syndicates systematically exploit children as technical operators through digital media to sever the main network chain and evade legal detection. This study aims to analyze the anatomy of the modus operandi of narcotics transactions involving children in the digital realm and examine its legal implications for the process of proof and criminal liability. Utilizing an empirical juridical research method with a sociological approach conducted in the jurisdiction of the Metro Police Resort, Lampung, this research identifies a shift in modus operandi towards the "Map System" or Dead Drop Method. In this modus, the child's role is divided into three sophisticated technical stages: pre-transaction via encrypted communication, field execution (mapping & dropping) using precise GPS coordinates, and post-transaction involving digital cleaning, which creates a phenomenon of crime "gamification" where children perceive the criminal act akin to an online game mission. The legal implications of this phenomenon present serious challenges regarding the validity of electronic evidence, which is volatile due to a weak chain of custody, as well as the reconstruction of the child's mens rea, which points towards premeditated intent (dolus premeditatus) driven by high digital literacy rather than mere negligence. These conditions complicate the application of pure diversion as mandated by law; thus, this study recommends a hybrid punishment approach where law enforcement proceeds to break impunity, but sanctions focus on specific rehabilitation in the Special Guidance Institution for Children (LPKA) to reorient the children's digital skills positively.

The transfer of hajj quotas for deceased pilgrims is a legal and social issue that is relevant to the dynamics of the implementation of the hajj in Indonesia. This phenomenon arises as a consequence of the long waiting list for the departure of pilgrims, which causes many prospective pilgrims to die before having the opportunity to perform the worship. From the perspective of Islamic law, the hajj is personal (fard 'ain) and attached to individuals who have met the requirements of istitha'ah. However, in the context of state administration, the right to portion Hajj is seen as an administrative right that can be transferred to certain heirs in a regulatory manner. This study aims to examine the legal basis for the assignment of hajj quota based on the principles of sharia maqashid and review its implementation in the socio-anthropological context of the Indonesian Muslim community. The research method used is normative law with a conceptual and sociological approach, through the analysis of laws and regulations and developing social practices. The results of the study show that the transfer of the hajj quota does not contradict sharia principles as long as it brings benefits, guarantees justice, and avoids potential abuse. Socially, this policy reflects respect for the deceased's worship intentions, strengthens kinship values, and shows the adaptation of Islamic law in responding to the needs of contemporary Indonesian Muslim society.

This study aims to examine learning typologies in Arabic language instruction and analyze how differences in learning styles influence the effectiveness of the learning process. The study focuses on identifying the characteristics of visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning types and how these variations can serve as the basis for designing more adaptive and meaningful Arabic teaching strategies. The method employed is a literature review, involving the examination of books, journal articles, previous research findings, and other relevant scientific documents. The analysis was conducted through the collection of references, in-depth review, critical evaluation, categorization of findings, and theoretical synthesis, resulting in a comprehensive description of learning typologies within the context of Arabic language learning. The findings indicate that Arabic language learning is influenced not only by variations in learning typologies but also by fundamental conceptual foundations of learning, which include philosophical, psychological, sociological, and communicative aspects. Learning typologies visual, auditory, and kinesthetic play a significant role in determining how learners understand and respond to Arabic material. Furthermore, learning success is strongly shaped by the application of active learning principles and the learners' cognitive processes. The cognitive domain, which refers to mental abilities to think, establish associations, understand, and analyze knowledge, becomes a crucial element in optimizing language comprehension. These findings affirm that Arabic language learning will be more effective when teachers are able to integrate fundamental learning concepts and adapt teaching strategies to learners' typologies and cognitive abilities.

This community service article focuses on the main issues faced by food processing Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Watesprojo Village, Mojokerto, namely stagnant productivity and sales due to the lack of implementation of innovation strategies, which directly hinders the improvement of the welfare of local Human Resources (HR).

The most significant impact was seen in the marketing aspect, where MSMEs recorded an average increase in online sales of 35%, expanding market reach beyond Mojokerto. Sociologically, this program successfully triggered proactive behavioral changes and fostered a new social institution in the form of a Local Leader, the "Watesprojo UMKM Digital Ambassador," who ensured the sustainability of self-reliance. In conclusion, the structured innovation intervention proved to be a catalyst for holistic socio-economic transformation, linking business efficiency with improved human resource well-being at the village level.

This study analyzes the application of sentence enhancement to perpetrators of fraud in the recruitment of civil servants (ASN) and examines the consistency of judicial reasoning in Decision No. 1175/Pid.B/2024/PN Mks. The research focuses on two main issues: the fulfillment of the requirements for sentence enhancement under Articles 52 and 486–488 of the Indonesian Criminal Code (KUHP), and the alignment of the judge’s considerations with the principles of criminal sentencing. Using a normative juridical method and employing statutory, case, and conceptual approaches, this research finds that the application of Article 378 KUHP was appropriate, as the elements of deception were proven. However, sentence enhancement under Articles 52 and 486–488 KUHP was not applied due to the absence of a functional connection between the perpetrator’s status as an ASN and the offense, as well as the failure to meet the formal requirements of recidivism. Although the decision is legally defensible in a formal sense, it lacks substantive completeness in addressing moral and sociological considerations. The perpetrator’s ASN status and prior conviction should reasonably serve as aggravating factors. The study concludes that while the decision is normatively consistent, it falls short of achieving substantive justice, particularly regarding public protection and the integrity of the civil service.

Consumer protection is an important pillar in ensuring fairness and balance in the relationship between business actors and consumers, including for foreign nationals who transact in Indonesia. Economic globalization and digital developments are expanding the range of cross-border economic activities that demand the presence of an inclusive legal protection system that is adaptive to modern trade dynamics. This research aims to analyze consumer protection for foreign nationals in Indonesia through juridical and sociological approaches to understand the implementation of legal norms, the effectiveness of dispute resolution mechanisms, and the social realities faced by foreign consumers in practice. The research method used is normative legal research with a legislative approach and a sociological approach through the analysis of the literature, regulations, and empirical findings from various studies related to cross-border consumer protection. The results of the study show that although normatively Law Number 8 of 1999 concerning Consumer Protection guarantees equal rights for all consumers, in practice there are still administrative, cultural, linguistic, and information access obstacles experienced by foreign citizens. These findings affirm the importance of harmonizing consumer protection policies with the principles of global justice, accessibility, and non-discrimination.

This study aims to analyze the formative influence of pre-Buddhist Indian culture on the development of social values within early Buddhist society. Prior to the emergence of Buddhism in the 6th century BCE, Indian civilization had already evolved a complex cultural and philosophical landscape characterized by the varṇa (caste) hierarchy, Vedic ritualism, and the metaphysical doctrines of the Upaniṣads concerning karma, saṃsāra, and mokṣa. Employing a qualitative library research method, this study draws on secondary historical and sociological literature as well as primary Buddhist scriptures from the Sutta Pitaka (Pali Text Society edition). The analysis identifies three major cultural elements Brahmanical ritualism, the doctrine of rebirth and moral causation, and the śramaṇa ascetic movements that provided both the context and the dialectical counterpoint to the rise of Buddhism. The findings reveal that the Buddha’s teaching emerged as a moral and philosophical critique of the Vedic worldview, rejecting hereditary privilege and ritual exclusivity in favor of ethical conduct (sīla), mental cultivation (bhāvanā), and compassionate social responsibility (mettā–karuṇā). Through this transformation, Buddhism redefined human worth based on moral action (kamma), rather than lineage or social status, thus creating an egalitarian and ethically grounded social order. Understanding the pre-Buddhist cultural background offers deeper insight into the sociological, philosophical, and ethical dimensions of early Buddhist thought and highlights its continuing relevance for contemporary discussions on social justice, equality, and interreligious harmony.

This study discusses the basis of Indonesian society’s obligation to comply with the Marriage Law (UUP) as a manifestation of obedience to both state law and religious teachings. The study arises from the reality that, despite the UUP and the Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI) serving as the legal foundation for marriage in Indonesia, many still violate its provisions, such as through unregistered (siri) marriages. Using a normative juridical approach and qualitative descriptive analysis, this research examines the juridical, philosophical, and sociological foundations of legal obedience to the UUP and its implications for family and social life. The findings show that juridically, obedience to the UUP is grounded in the principle of legality and state sovereignty; philosophically, it reflects the values of Divinity and Humanity embodied in Pancasila; and sociologically, it functions as social engineering to protect women and children while ensuring social order. Compliance with the UUP therefore holds not only legal but also moral and spiritual significance, serving as a means to achieve harmonious families, social order, and a just nation.

The dynamics of the positions of DPR members cannot be separated from the political activities of lame ducks. However, the lame duck era became problematic because the DPR's legislative activity suddenly increased rapidly towards the end of its term. This increase was accompanied by the controversial passing of a number of bills. This study will examine the urgency of the need for change and the formation of new laws during the lame duck era and the dynamics of the legislative process during the lame duck era of political leadership in Indonesia, using doctrinal research with a legislative and conceptual approach. Based on the research results, it is known that changes and the formation of new laws during the lame duck era lack urgency but will have a negative impact on the quality of legislation and public trust in the government. The dynamics of the legislative process during the lame duck era of political leadership in Indonesia can be reflected in the formation of the fourth revision of the Constitutional Court Bill and the Law on State Ministries. Furthermore, since the first level of deliberation, the process has been closed and rushed without significant public participation. Moreover, Indonesia is currently in a transitional position towards a new government. Therefore, no new regulations should be enacted during this transitional period, as the drafting of the Constitutional Court Bill fails to meet the philosophical, sociological, and legal requirements. Furthermore, the enactment of the State Ministry Law has also sparked controversy, ranging from its substance to its procedural basis.

The formation of regional regulations (Perda) is a constitutional derivative of the implementation of regional autonomy within the framework of the Indonesian legal system. Substantively, Perda function as regulatory instruments aimed at accommodating the specific interests of local communities, in line with fundamental values, contextual needs, and the hierarchy of applicable laws and regulations. However, the high frequency of annulment or cancellation of Perda indicates dissonance or non-compliance with the principles of sound legislative formation. This phenomenon raises the urgency to review the extent to which philosophical, sociological, and legal foundations have been internalized and comprehensively implemented in the regional legislative process. Therefore, this study focuses on analyzing the relevance of these three fundamental foundations to the quality and legitimacy of regional legal products. This study adopts a normative-juridical legal research method, involving descriptive analysis of the corpus of laws and regulations, legal doctrine, and the empirical practice of Perda formation. The results highlight that: the philosophical foundation provides a normative orientation in the form of ethical-teleological values ​​and goals; the sociological foundation reflects the actual needs and social realities of the communities subject to regulation; Meanwhile, the legal basis guarantees formal legality and vertical and horizontal consistency with the national legal system. Key findings indicate that these three foundations are inherently relevant and complementary in determining the quality of regional regulations. Synergy and harmonious integration between them are essential prerequisites for producing regional legal products that have legal validity, are capable of upholding substantive justice, and are responsive to the dynamics of public needs.  

This article examines Ahmad Muhamad Mustain Nasoha’s thought on Islamic nationalism as the basis of patriotism. Nasoha emphasizes that nationalism does not contradict Islamic teachings; in fact, the values of faith, morality, and brotherhood in Islam can strengthen national consciousness.

Furthermore, the article discusses the relevance of Islamic nationalism in addressing contemporary challenges, such as Indonesia’s plural society, globalization, radicalism, and digital disinformation. Nasoha stresses the importance of harmonizing Islamic values with Pancasila, so that Islamic nationalism can serve as both social cohesion and an ethical guideline for citizens. The implementation of Islamic nationalism can be carried out through education, legal reinforcement, moral development, and concrete social contributions, enabling Muslims to preserve their religious identity while actively participating in national life. Through this comprehensive study, the article asserts that Ahmad Muhamad Mustain Nasoha’s ideas significantly contribute to the development of a moderate, inclusive nationalism grounded in Islamic values. His thought offers a strategic framework to cultivate patriotic young Muslims without compromising religious identity.  while strengthening Indonesia’s national integrity in the face of contemporary challenges.

The rise of the phenomenon of early marriage in Indonesia is the background to the birth of Republic of Indonesia Law number 16 of 2019 concerning marriage and the compilation of Islamic law, which sets the age limit for marriage to 19 years. The reality is that in society there are many cases asking to be able to get married and have it officially registered, which has led to the existence of a marriage dispensation. Marriage dispensation is permitted by law by considering positive matters. The aim of this study is to determine the long-term impact of early marriage on the welfare of individuals, families and society. The method used is qualitative, data collection is carried out by interviews, direct observation and also data related to the theme. Using this method will make it easier to observe phenomena in society regarding marriage dispensations. The data analysis used was an inductive method (Creswell, 1994). The results obtained were that the marriage dispensation from a legal perspective did not conflict with Law 16 of 2019. The granting of marriage dispensations was carried out by considering the impact. From a sociological perspective, our society views early marriage as something normal and often forgets the impact of child marriage. Marriage dispensation is a rational choice, even though the risks faced are very high. Therefore, it is necessary to increase public awareness of promiscuity and return to the essence of marriage.

This research examines the paradox of Christian leader integrity in facing political polarization and group identity in Toraja society. The background of the problem is a contradictive phenomenon where Christian communities strongly emphasize ethical character of leaders, yet strong group identification can blind them to ethical inconsistencies of supported leaders, especially in the dynamics of regional and presidential elections that divide churches. This research aims to analyze the paradox of Christian leader integrity, identify psychological, theological, and sociological factors causing ethical blindness, and formulate leadership principles that can maintain integrity amid political pressure. Using qualitative descriptive methods based on literature study, this research collects data from leadership theology literature, group identity psychology, and empirical studies on political practices in Toraja Christian communities. Research findings show that the integrity paradox manifests in local political dynamics where ethical standards become loose when leaders come from the same identity group. Factors causing ethical blindness include in-group bias and cognitive dissonance (psychological), sacred-secular dualism and permissive interpretation (theological), as well as clan structure and conformity pressure (sociological). The formulated leadership principles include commitment to biblical standards, theology-based political education, transformative prophetic role, accountability systems, contextual leadership, and building mature faith communities. The implication is that this research provides theoretical contributions to the development of contextual leadership theology and practical recommendations for church leaders in navigating the complexity of identity politics. Research recommendations include developing theology-based political education programs in churches, building leadership accountability systems, and further empirical research to validate the conceptual framework that has been built.

Eclecticism in the Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI) is evident through the incorporation of various opinions from different schools of Islamic jurisprudence, including the Shafi‘i school as the dominant madhhab in Indonesia, as well as the Hanafi, Maliki, and Hanbali schools, alongside several modern approaches. This method reflects an effort to reconstruct Islamic law so that it aligns with social needs and the national legal system. This study employs a library research method. The primary sources consist of the official text of the KHI, classical fiqh works from the four major schools (Hanafi, Maliki, Shafi‘i, and Hanbali), and contemporary literature on Islamic family law in Indonesia. The analytical techniques used include document study, article content analysis, and tracing the compatibility of madhhab opinions with the norms adopted in the KHI, supplemented by a sociological approach to assess the implications of its implementation in practice. The findings indicate that the application of eclecticism in Book I of the KHI is grounded in (a) social plurality; (b) the sustainability of the national legal system; (c) the values of justice; and (d) legal adaptability. The procedural steps of madhhab-based eclecticism in the KHI involve: (a) identifying issues of Islamic law to be compiled, (b) examining textual evidences and madhhab opinions, (c) selecting the most beneficial view (maslahah), (d) harmonizing it with the national legal system, and (e) conducting academic validation and social feasibility testing.    

This research examines judicial discrepancies in criminal cases of fiduciary transfer, focusing on Decision No. 45/Pid.Sus/2023/PN.SMN. Discrepancy is understood as the inconsistency between trial facts, the prosecutor’s evidence, and the judge’s considerations, which may lead to injustice and reduce public trust in the judiciary. The purpose of this study is to analyze the forms of discrepancy found in the decision and to assess their legal implications for the protection of the defendant’s rights and legal certainty. The research method employed is empirical juridical research with a sociological juridical approach, using statutory analysis, case studies, interviews with law enforcers, and literature review. The findings indicate disharmony in the assessment of intent (mens rea), the interpretation of written consent, and the proof of losses suffered by fiduciary recipients. Such discrepancies weaken the quality of the judgment, create legal uncertainty, and potentially violate the principle of fair trial. This study concludes that harmonization between trial facts, prosecutorial evidence, and judicial reasoning is necessary to maintain the integrity of the criminal justice system, improve the quality of judicial decisions, and strengthen legal protection for the parties involved.

The problem of livestock roaming freely in Kerato Village, Unter Iwes District, causes damage to property, agricultural land, social conflict, and economic losses. To address this problem, Kerato Village Regulation Number 7 of 2021 concerning Livestock Maintenance was created. This regulation stipulates administrative sanctions in the form of fines and compensation for livestock owners who release their livestock in public places, residential areas, and agricultural or plantation land owned by others without supervision from the livestock owner. This study uses an empirical legal research approach, a method that analyzes social phenomena in society using a legislative approach, a sociological approach, a comparative approach, and a case approach. The results of the study indicate that the legal liability of livestock owners according to Kerato Village Regulation Number 7 of 2021 concerning Livestock Maintenance stipulates that livestock owners who roam freely and damage agricultural land will be subject to administrative sanctions in the form of fines for security costs and maintenance costs for the secured livestock and are required to pay compensation for damaged crops. Research results related to Islamic law emphasize the responsibilities of livestock owners based on the principle of justice, requiring balanced compensation and encouraging dispute resolution through mediation.

Regulatory changes through Law No. 3 of 2024 concerning the Second Amendment to Law No. 6 of 2014 stipulate an extension of the village head's term of office from six to eight years. This policy is intended to strengthen leadership stability and the sustainability of village development, but also raises concerns regarding reduced leadership circulation, weakened community political participation, and increased potential for abuse of power. This research uses empirical legal methods with sociological, conceptual, and case-based approaches, conducted through field observations and in-depth interviews with village officials, community leaders, MSMEs, and residents of Kerato Village. The results show a diverse response from the community. Some support this policy because it is seen as providing the village head with the opportunity to complete development programs sustainably. However, others reject it, arguing that term extension has the potential to reduce the quality of local democracy, limit leadership regeneration, and reduce the frequency of community political participation. The discussion emphasizes the dilemma between village government stability and the principles of participatory democracy. In conclusion, this policy is ambivalent: positive in maintaining development continuity, but risky for accountability and community participation. Therefore, strengthening the function of the Village Consultative Body (BPD), transparency, and effective oversight mechanisms are very necessary to maintain the balance between government stability and village democracy.
