This paper examines the violation of the Islamic business ethics principle of amanah (trustworthiness) through a case study of financial statement manipulation by PT Garuda Indonesia in 2018. The company recorded unrealized revenue of USD 239 million as profit, while in fact it was operating at a loss. This action not only violated accounting standards but also breached Islamic values such as amanah (trust), shiddiq (honesty), and involved elements of tadlis (deception) and gharar (uncertainty). Using a qualitative approach and case study method, this paper analyzes documents from the Financial Services Authority (OJK), the Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI), and Islamic business ethics literature. The findings reveal that this manipulation caused public distrust, administrative sanctions, and reputational damage. This paper recommends implementing Shariah-based corporate governance, ethical auditing aligned with Islamic principles, and strengthening ethical literacy in the business world. Therefore, justice and accountability in business can be upheld in accordance with Islamic teachings.

The development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology in the education sector has undergone major changes. These changes bring great opportunities to change the learning process to be more personal, effective, and inclusive. The purpose of this journal is to analyze the potential and challenges that need to be faced in the application of AI in education so that it can run optimally. The method used in this study is the literature review method of various recent studies that discuss the use of AI in education, The results of the study show that AI has great potential to improve the personalization of learning and educational efficiency. However, there are number of significant challenges, such as limited infrastructure, privacy and data security issues, resistance from educators and students, and the digital divide that still occurs in several regions. Therefore, a strategy is needed that includes a academic laziness that reduces learning motivation, constraints on AI contextual knowledge, Inability to process complex information, loss of literacy skills, amd the risk of addiction to AI technology. With a planned and sustainable strategy, AI has great potential to improve the quality of national education and also reduce the dangers that may arise from the modern technological era.

The rapid advancement of digital technology has transformed the landscape of language learning, particularly in the post-pandemic era where self-directed learning through mobile applications and online platforms is increasingly common. This study explores the effectiveness of two popular digital tools LuvLingua and YouTube in supporting independent Japanese language learning among Indonesian university students. LuvLingua offers a structured, gamified approach suitable for beginners, while YouTube provides authentic and contextual exposure through real-life content. Using a descriptive quantitative method, this research involved twelve students from non-language majors who actively use both platforms to study Japanese. The findings reveal that each platform has distinct advantages: LuvLingua excels in foundational vocabulary and pronunciation, whereas YouTube significantly enhances listening skills and cultural understanding. The combination of both platforms yields optimal learning outcomes, although success heavily depends on learners’ motivation, discipline, and time management. This study contributes to the growing body of research on technology-assisted language learning and provides practical recommendations for learners, educators, and content developers.

West Sumatra, situated at the convergence of the Indo-Australian and Eurasian tectonic plates, experiences frequent earthquakes and aftershocks due to the complex geological setting. This study utilizes the Omori-Utsu method, a modified version of Omori’s law by seismologist Tokiji Utsu, to estimate aftershock duration. Data on aftershocks from significant earthquakes (magnitude ?5.5M) between 2021 and 2023 were accessed through the BMKG earthquake catalog. The study finds that aftershock durations vary significantly depending on the earthquake's tectonic origin. The longest recorded aftershock duration occurred after the West Pasaman earthquake on February 22, 2022, lasting 21 days, while the shortest was one day following the Mentawai earthquake on September 11, 2022. These variations highlight the influence of tectonic structures on aftershock activity, with subduction zones exhibiting shorter decay times. This research provides critical insights into earthquake behavior, aiding in disaster preparedness and mitigation strategies for the West Sumatra region.

This research method is the Experimental Method. This experimental method is a method that seeks influence on something between cause and effect carried out by researchers. This researcher uses the Pre Experimental Design type with One Group Pretest-Posttest Designs. The population of this study was 13 children in group B at Al-Anshor Islamic Kindergarten Palembang. The observations that researchers use with the determination to determine the influence of group B children aged 5-6 years at Al-Anshor Islamic Kindergarten Palembang. Based on the results of the research and discussion that has been carried out, there has been an increase in oral language skills in children. It can be said that in this study there is a significant influence given puppet activities, this is shown in the post-test experiment using story books. Before the puppet activities were implemented, children who had low fine motor development abilities were 3 children, while those with moderate scores were 10 children. After the wayang activity was implemented, 6 children had a high score or developed very well in their language skills, while 4 children had motor development skills that developed according to expectations, and only 3 children had a starting to develop score, which means that after being given treatment, children's fine motor development increased compared to before the treatment, and the Wayang activity was to improve the language skills of early childhood.
 

The aim of this study is to examine the philosophical and practical differences between conventional and Islamic financial reports. Laporan keuangan konvensional disusun berdasarkan prinsip-prinsip ekonomi kapitalis, dengan orientasi pada laba dan kepentingan pemegang saham. Meanwhile, Islamic financial reports are based on Islamic principles that emphasise justice, transparency, and social responsibility, as well as holding financial activities accountable not only to humans, but also to Allah SWT. The research method used was qualitative descriptive-comparative through a literature study of accounting standards and related journals. The results of the study show differences in reporting objectives, report structure, basic principles, transaction measurement methods, and stakeholder orientation. Laporan syariah mencakup unsur-unsur tambahan, seperti laporan zakat, qardh, dan tanggung jawab sosial, yang tidak ditemukan dalam sistem konvensional. Memahami perbedaan ini sangatlah penting untuk mempromosikan praktik pelaporan keuangan yang tidak hanya berorientasi pada keuntungan, tetapi juga menjunjung tinggi nilai-nilai etika dan keberlanjutan.
