Abstract

The issue of online gambling advertisements proliferating on Instagram's platform is of significant concern and demands immediate attention. To curb this trend, Instagram must strengthen its measures against users who propagate these advertisements to discourage others from following suit and prevent them from appearing on the platform's timeline. Such deterrent measures must be implemented without delay to ensure Instagram's platform's continued integrity and safeguard its users from exposure to unwanted content. The present study employs qualitative reception analysis, and the findings underscore the need for Instagram to implement stringent measures to prevent the proliferation of online gambling advertisements on its platform. The imperative to preserve the intended purpose of social media and ensure a positive user experience necessitates that Instagram improves its reporting feature to regulate such ads more effectively. Taking a proactive approach will bolster the platform's efforts to promote social media's health and safeguard the interests of its users. By adopting a proactive approach, the researcher can implement various strategies and policies that will help enhance the platform's overall user experience. This may include improving content moderation, preventing the spread of misinformation and harmful content, and addressing technical issues. This approach will enable us to prioritize the safety and well-being of social media users by implementing more robust privacy and security measures and providing more comprehensive support for those experiencing online harassment or other forms of abuse. Through these efforts, we can build a more robust, more resilient platform that is better equipped to meet the evolving needs of its users.

Abstract

Urbanization in major cities such as Jakarta frequently results in heightened social inequality and economic segregation, further widening the gap between different societal groups. Jakarta vs Everybody portrays these urban challenges by depicting the harsh realities of city life through characters ensnared in crime and economic hardship. This study adopts a qualitative methodology, employing semiotic and discourse analysis to examine how the film represents social inequality in the context of urbanization. The findings reveal that the film effectively illustrates marginalization, social injustice, and economic segregation present in Jakarta. Specifically, it highlights disparities in access to opportunities and resources among various social groups, which drive the main characters toward a life of crime as a shortcut to survival. These results bolster existing theories of social and economic segregation in urbanized settings, demonstrating that inequality in large cities extends beyond economic factors and shapes broader social and cultural dynamics. The implications of this research underscore the need to address uneven urbanization, which exacerbates inequality and crime in big cities. The film serves not only as a medium for raising social awareness but also as a platform for provoking deeper discussions on spatial policies and social justice in urban environments. Consequently, this study contributes to the literature on the interaction between popular media and social issue representation in urban society.

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to examine the dynamics of Islamic media on Instagram via a comparative analysis of two da'wah accounts, Lensamu and Aisyiyah Pusat. This study uses a qualitative methodology and content analysis to investigate differences in digital communication methods, message framing, and audience interaction patterns across both accounts. Primary data were taken from Instagram uploads over a specific time period, while secondary data were gathered from literature on digital communication and Islamic media. The study's findings suggest that Lensamu uses an engaging and inspiring visual approach to catch the attention of the younger population with light and easy-to-understand material.  Aisyiyahpusat, on the other hand, employs a more formal and analytical communication style, focussing on in-depth material presentation and critical conversations that foster excellent interactions. These findings emphasize the significance of tailoring digital da'wah techniques to audience characteristics, as well as contributing to the creation of more adaptable Islamic communication approaches in the age of social media.

Abstract

This study explores marketing communication strategies and the application of Islamic ethics in TikTok live streaming within social commerce. As live streaming becomes a prominent promotional tool, understanding its ethical implications is essential, especially for Muslim entrepreneurs. This qualitative research employed semi-structured interviews with selected TikTok influencers and micro-entrepreneurs actively engaged in live selling. The findings reveal that effective marketing strategies on TikTok include real-time audience engagement, influencer credibility, scarcity-based promotions, and informal entertainment styles to build emotional connections. However, several practices conflict with Islamic ethical principles, particularly regarding truthfulness (ṣidq), trustworthiness (amānah), and respectful conduct (adab). Exaggerated product claims and misleading demonstrations were observed, potentially violating Islamic business ethics. The study concludes that while TikTok live streaming offers strategic advantages for social commerce, ethical compliance remains a challenge. It recommends increasing digital ethical literacy and developing Islamic marketing guidelines for practitioners. These findings contribute to a deeper understanding of how contemporary digital marketing can align with religious values in the evolving landscape of e-commerce.

Abstract

This study explores the innovative communication strategies employed by Muhammadiyah in promoting the ideology of Progressive Islam through digital platforms. Utilizing the theoretical frameworks of Diffusion of Innovations (Rogers) and Communicative Constitution of Organizations (CCO), this research aims to examine how ideological messages are disseminated and adopted through digital communication channels. A qualitative approach was applied, involving in-depth interviews, direct observation, and document analysis of Muhammadiyah’s digital campaigns, including social media content and official publications. The findings reveal that the diffusion process follows a systematic progression, starting from knowledge exposure, persuasion, decision-making, implementation, to social confirmation. Muhammadiyah’s communication strategy integrates universal values such as education, social justice, and economic empowerment with engaging visual formats that appeal to digitally native youth. Inclusive narratives are delivered through infographics, videos, webinars, and action-based social programs, enhancing the relevance of the ideology in contemporary society. Furthermore, the involvement of charismatic figures, collaboration with educational institutions, and the use of Muhammadiyah’s organizational networks significantly accelerate the adoption of its messages. The study concludes that Muhammadiyah’s communication approach is adaptive, participatory, and context-sensitive, positioning it as a compelling model for ideological communication in the digital era. These findings contribute theoretically to the field of religious organizational communication and offer practical insights for developing technology-based da’wah strategies in the future.

Abstract

This study aims to critically examine Joseph Conrad’s Lord Jim through the lens of Edward Said’s theory of Orientalism, focusing on how the novel represents the East as subordinate to Western ideological and moral authority. Employing a qualitative literary analysis, this research explores narrative structure, characterization, and setting to reveal how the novel systematically marginalizes Eastern voices and constructs the East as a passive backdrop for the psychological and moral journey of the Western protagonist, Jim. Key findings show that the Indigenous characters in Patusan are denied subjectivity and interiority, their perspectives filtered entirely through the Western narrator, Marlow. The narrative elevates Jim to a position of moral superiority and leadership, reinforcing colonial myths of the “white savior” and the supposed dependency of Eastern societies on Western governance. The absence of Eastern perspectives in the novel underscores the epistemological dominance of the West, making Lord Jim not a true intercultural dialogue, but a monologue that serves Western self-definition. The study concludes that Conrad’s novel, despite its literary complexity, perpetuates Orientalist discourse by silencing the East and reinforcing hierarchical binaries between the West and the non-West. Future research is encouraged to compare such colonial narratives with postcolonial works that reclaim indigenous voices.
