This research was conducted using a descriptive qualitative approach. Data was collected through observation and interviews. The data sources for this research are BMT employees in the AOSP and AOAP divisions and BMT UGT Nusantara Capem Gadang customers.

The Mobile UGT system also helps institutions synchronize field data with that in the system. The number of customers and transaction frequency increases every year showing customer interest in Mobile UGT.

Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui makna simbolik dui’ menre’ dalam adat pernikahan masyarakat Bugis dan bagaimana agama Islam memaknai adat tersebut. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan mengumpulkan data melalui observasi, wawancara dengan lima orang informan, dan sejumlah artikel ilmiah yang relevan. Temuan penelitian ini menunjukkan pentingnya simbolis dui’ menre’ dalam pernikahan Bugis sebagai tanda kesungguhan dan kerja keras seorang pria dalam melamar seorang wanita. Pekerjaan calon pengantin perempuan, status sosial, tingkat pendidikan, kondisi fisik, dan faktor-faktor lain memainkan peran penting dalam menentukan berapa banyak dui’ menre’ yang pantas diberikan. dui’ menre’ dan mahar merupakan hal yang berbeda. Meskipun keduanya diwajibkan, dui’ menre’ tidak sama dengan mas kawin karena menurut adat masyarakat Bugis, dui’ menre’ adalah sebuah kewajiban, sedangkan mas kawin adalah sebuah kewajiban menurut tradisi Islam. Dari sudut pandang Islam, seorang pria tidak diwajibkan untuk memberikan dui’ menre’, melainkan hanya diharapkan untuk memberikan mahar kepada wanita yang akan dinikahinya. Tradisi ini diperbolehkan selama tidak memberatkan dan sesuai dengan prinsip-prinsip syariah, meskipun tidak diatur oleh hukum Islam. Agar pernikahan dapat berlangsung dengan baik dan damai, masyarakat harus menyeimbangkan antara tradisi dan ajaran agama.

This study aims to analyze the influence of self-concept and self-regulation on academic stress in students of Universitas Islam 45 Bekasi. A quantitative approach with a correlational design was used to test the relationship between these variables. Data were collected through a Likert-based questionnaire on 137 active students aged 18–23 years. The results of the analysis showed that self-concept had a significant negative relationship with academic stress, while self-regulation did not show a significant effect. These findings indicate the importance of self-concept in managing students' academic stress. Although self-regulation was not statistically significant, there was still a relevant negative relationship. The implication of this study is the need for self-concept development programs to support student well-being, while improving self-regulation can be considered in other contexts. This study provides new insights into managing academic stress and supports more effective interventions in higher education settings.
