Masalah hak asuh anak di luar nikah merupakan isu hukum yang rumit di Indonesia, baik dari sudut pandang hukum positif maupun hukum Islam. Undang-Undang Nomor 35 Tahun 2014 tentang Perlindungan Anak memberikan landasan hukum untuk melindungi hak-hak anak, termasuk mereka yang lahir di luar pernikahan sah. Sementara itu, dalam hukum Islam, hak asuh anak (hadanah) berlandaskan prinsip perlindungan dan kesejahteraan anak, dengan mempertimbangkan kebutuhan fisik dan psikologisnya. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengkaji hak asuh anak di luar nikah menurut pandangan hukum Islam dan kaitannya dengan ketentuan dalam Undang-Undang Perlindungan Anak. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kajian Pustaka dengan mengumpulkan data terkait pengaturan hak asuh anak di luar nikah dalam kedua sistem hukum tersebut. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dalam hukum Islam, anak yang lahir di luar nikah berhak atas perlindungan dan pengasuhan, dengan prioritas hak asuh diberikan kepada ibu hingga usia tertentu, sedangkan ayah berkewajiban memberikan nafkah. Di sisi lain, Undang-Undang Perlindungan Anak menjamin hak setara bagi semua anak tanpa memandang status pernikahan orang tua mereka, meliputi hak asuh, pendidikan, dan perlindungan dari kekerasan. Meskipun terdapat perbedaan dalam pembagian kewajiban dan hak asuh antara ibu dan ayah, kedua sistem hukum ini memiliki keselarasan dalam menjunjung kepentingan terbaik anak. Oleh sebab itu, diperlukan sinergi antara hukum Islam dan hukum positif untuk memastikan perlindungan hak anak di luar nikah, terutama dalam hal pengasuhan yang berfokus pada kesejahteraan anak.

Penelitian ini menganalisis persepsi masyarakat Desa Mlawang Kecamatan Klakah Kabupaten Lumajang, terhadap tradisi pemberian zakat fitrah kepada kiai dan mengkajinya berdasarkan Surah At-Taubah ayat 60. Dalam masyarakat Madura yang mayoritas menganut Islam, kiai dihormati sebagai tokoh agama, sehingga zakat fitrah sering diberikan kepada mereka meskipun dianggap cukup secara ekonomi, berbeda dari delapan golongan mustahiq yang disebutkan dalam Al-Qur'an. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode lapangan dengan wawancara, observasi, dan studi kepustakaan untuk menggali data dan menganalisis praktik tersebut secara deskriptif-induktif dalam perspektif hukum Islam. Hasilnya diharapkan memberikan pandangan komprehensif terkait tradisi ini dan kesesuaiannya dengan syariat. Penelitian ini mengkaji persepsi masyarakat Desa Mlawang, Lumajang, tentang tradisi pemberian zakat fitrah kepada kiai serta meninjau praktik tersebut berdasarkan Surah At-Taubah ayat 60. Tradisi ini berlangsung secara turun-temurun sebagai penghormatan kepada kiai yang dianggap bagian dari golongan sabilillah karena perannya dalam dakwah dan pembinaan spiritual. Menggunakan metode kualitatif, penelitian ini menemukan bahwa meskipun kiai tergolong "mampu," praktik tersebut sah menurut syariat Islam berdasarkan interpretasi luas terhadap fi sabilillah. Selain memenuhi aspek keagamaan, tradisi ini mencerminkan penghargaan masyarakat atas peran kiai dan harapan memperoleh keberkahan melalui pengabdian mereka.

This study examines the use of Bank Indonesia's monetary policy to control the money supply (JUB) and its impact on the unemployment rate in Indonesia. The objectives of this study are to: (1) evaluate Bank Indonesia's use of monetary policy to control money supply from 2014 to 2023; and (2) investigate how controlling money supply impacts the unemployment rate in Indonesia. The main focus of the study is to determine how effective Bank Indonesia's monetary policy is in managing JUB as a tool to reduce unemployment. Secondary data from the period 2014-2023 which includes data on unemployment rate and JUB were analyzed through simple regression analysis method and quantitative descriptive approach. The results of the analysis show that, with a correlation coefficient of 0.063 and an influence contribution of only 0.4%, there is a very weak and insignificant relationship between money supply and unemployment rate. According to the regression equation Y = 5.748 + 5.971X, every 1% increase in money supply will increase unemployment by 5.971. This finding suggests that Bank Indonesia's monetary policy in controlling the money supply.

The results of the analysis show significant differences between regencies/cities, with population growth rates ranging from 0.98% to 1.97% per year. The highest population density was recorded in East Barito, while Lamandau had the lowest density. The sex ratio tends to show a male dominance, with Lamandau having the highest ratio. These findings provide an overview of the challenges and opportunities in development planning, as well as the need to design policies that are in accordance with the demographic characteristics of each region. A deeper understanding of this data is expected to support more effective policies in population management and development in Central Kalimantan.

Dehydration occurs when the body loses too much water and essential fluids in the body. Diarrhea is the main cause of dehydration in toddlers. Toddlers often get diarrhea because their immune system is still vulnerable. If the problem of dehydration is not addressed immediately, it can lead to other health problems such as shock risk. This study aims to determine the effect of video education and demonstration on the ability of first aid dehydration due to diarrhea in mothers with children 0-5 years in Siding Tuban Village. The research design used was Pre Experimental with a one group pretest-postest approach, a sample of 16 respondents taken from 66 populations through Purposive Sampling. Research instrument Ability was measured by observation sheet and analyzed using Wilcoxon Signed Rank test (?=0.05). Before the intervention, 93.8% of respondents had poor skills and after the intervention, 100% of respondents had good skills, which showed an increase in the value of dehydration first aid skills. The results of the analysis obtained p-value=0.000 (<?), meaning that there is an effect of education on the ability of first aid for dehydration due to diarrhea in children. The combination of video and demonstration methods improves the mother's ability to dehydrate children due to diarrhea through visualization and hands-on practice, facilitating understanding and effective application. It is expected that mothers can carry out first aid for dehydration due to diarrhea in children without guidance, reducing the risk of child mortality.

When making investment decisions, it is crucial for investors to consider various risks that may arise, both in the short and long term. One method to measure risk is through volatility. Volatility represents a statistical measurement of the degree of price variation over a specific period, expressed as volatility (?) (Aklimawati & Wahyudi, 2013). This study aims to discuss the pricing of European option contracts using Conditional Monte Carlo simulation and the Black-Scholes method. The data used in this study is secondary data obtained from Yahoo Finance. The data consists of quantitative information, namely the monthly closing prices of Toyota Motor Corporation (TM) stock, spanning 5 years from July 1, 2019, to July 1, 2024, yielding 60 data points. In this research, the pricing of European call option contracts was calculated using Conditional Monte Carlo simulation and the Black-Scholes method. The study concludes that European option contract pricing can be determined using two methods: Conditional Monte Carlo simulation and the Black-Scholes method. Conditional Monte Carlo simulation can be employed to calculate European option prices in a structured manner, utilizing stochastic volatility estimated through the Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) method. The two methods yield differing option prices; Conditional Monte Carlo simulation produces lower option price estimates with relatively lower error values compared to the Black-Scholes method at every strike price. The lower estimates from Conditional Monte Carlo simulation are due to its consideration of stochastic changes in volatility, whereas the Black-Scholes method results in higher prices due to its assumption of constant volatility. The comparison demonstrates that Conditional Monte Carlo simulation provides cheaper price estimates under market conditions with non-constant volatility, despite requiring higher computational time compared to the Black-Scholes method.

Madrasah Tsanawiyah Azzidin Medan is a junior high school in Medan Denai District that promotes not only through manual media, but also through social media. However, during the period of 2023, the number of students who want to attend Madrasah Tsanawiyah Azzidin has decreased from 85 students in 2022 to 73 students in 2023. This is because there are still many teachers, education staff and school marketing staff who are unable to convey good and positive communication to prospective consumers through e-wom facilities, so they are less able to give a positive impression when conducting promotions. As a result, promotions with e-wom have not been utilized optimally, which makes parents of students as consumers unable to communicate carefully every message and positive impression through the school, because they still prioritize manual promotions, so that many of these prospective consumers have not been moved, so they decide not to attend Madrasah Tsanawiyah Aidin Medan Denai so that training and teaching are needed regarding the implementation of e-WOM. The method of implementing this training is done by conducting lecture methods, as well as through real presentations and simulations in implementing e-WOM applications on social media to carry out promotional activities in order to increase the number of students attending Madrasah Tsanawiyah Azzidin Medan. From the results of community service in the form of training on implementing e-WOM marketing applications, it can be seen that 37 education personnel, teachers and marketing personnel at Madrasah Tsanawiyah Azzidin Medan can improve their ability to implement the use of e-WOM applications when conducting promotions to increase the number of students who will attend Madrasah Tsanawiyah Azzidin Medan.
