Abstract

This research aims to examine the enforcement of SNI (Standar Nasional Indonesia) certification for electronic products in the Medan Denai District of Medan City and to evaluate the accountability of electronic store operators concerning consumer protection under both civil and criminal law. The significance of this study lies in its exploration of the intersection between legal frameworks, consumer rights, and public safety, offering a nuanced understanding of how these elements interact in a localized setting. By focusing on the Medan Denai District, the research not only highlights the specific challenges and dynamics faced in ensuring compliance with SNI standards but also reflects broader national concerns. The incorporation of Maqashid Al-Syari'ah, an Islamic jurisprudential principle, is crucial as it frames the discussion within a moral and ethical context. Maqashid Al-Syari'ah, which aims to protect fundamental human interests such as religion, life, intellect, lineage, and property, provides a unique lens through which consumer protection can be viewed. This perspective emphasizes that ensuring product safety and adherence to standards transcends mere legal obligations, embodying a deeper commitment to fulfilling religious and moral duties. The focus on Medan Denai District as a case study is essential because it offers a tangible example of how these principles are applied in practice, revealing both the successes and limitations of current enforcement mechanisms. This research, therefore, contributes valuable insights into how consumer protection can be enhanced by aligning legal and ethical standards, ultimately promoting societal well-being.

Abstract

One of the uses of technology in the video game industry has led to a new reality: playing video games can now become a profession with significant income. E-Sports (Electronic Sports) is a form of competitive video gaming that demands high skill and teamwork to achieve victory. This profession has grown in popularity as its income often far exceeds the regional minimum wage in various cities. This situation raises questions about the obligation of zakat for e-sports players, considering that in Islam, zakat is required for professions whose income reaches the nisab or minimum threshold. Zakat plays a crucial role in promoting wealth distribution and community welfare. However, applying zakat to modern professions such as e-sports requires adjustments in terms of nisab, rate, and payment timing, which can be determined through the method of qiyas (analogy). This study aims to examine the concept of the nisab for professional zakat in e-sports from a qiyas perspective. The research uses a normative approach with a conceptual approach, where data analysis is conducted through literature review by studying relevant theories from related literature. The analysis shows that income from the e-sports profession is subject to zakat, using the analogy of gold zakat, with a nisab value of 85 grams of gold and a zakat rate of 2.5%.
