Abstract

Students have a role as agents of change as activists for the country, students who are faced with various challenges in this modernisation era have many challenges and also increasingly complex demands.  The development of technology has a big impact at this time. Students continue to strive to overcome problems in the development of this nation. In our country, students play many roles in the political world including (1) Awareness of politics and education, (2) Advocacy of social justice, and (3) Moral guardians in the political world. However, students are still faced with various challenges in this global era related to their status as Muslim intellectuals. The challenge is the lack of understanding from the Muslim community about the principles of Islam.

Abstract

This article explores the role of the Qur'an in perpetuating the rejection of female presidential candidates in the context of Presidential Elections in Indonesia from 2004 - 2024. To date, Indonesia has not had a female president directly elected by the people. In 2004, Megawati Soekarno Putri became the first woman to run for president. There was both support and rejection of Megawati's candidacy. The rejection response by some groups was based on the teachings of Islam. The rejection of women's leadership as president was based on the Qur'an surah An-Nisa verse 34. After the 2004 and 2009 presidential elections, there were no presidential candidates from among women. The use of the Qur'anic verse to reject a female president is a latent problem even though there are no female presidential candidates in the presidential elections in Indonesia. This means that the use of the Qur'an to reject a female president in Indonesia could still happen in the future. The method used is a literature study with qualitative analysis by utilising primary sources on presidential elections and female presidential candidates. In this article, three discussions will be discussed. First, the use of the Qur'an to reject women's leadership in the presidential election in Indonesia. Second, the rejection of the president with the legitimacy of the Qur'an is a latent problem of the future. Third, how does the alternative narrative of al-Qur'an support women's leadership in the realm of presidential elections?
The Relationship between Politics and Religion (An Examination of the Concept of the Islamic State in the Perspective of Abu al-A'la Al-Maududi) Taufiq, Muhammad

Abstract

Islam, as a comprehensive and universal way of life, governs not only worship but also politics, statehood, economics, and social systems. Al-Maududi proposed an Islamic state based on the Qur’an, Sunnah, and practices of the companions, advocating for a caliphate system over a monarchy. He argued that the decline of Islamic politics began with the abandonment of the Khilafah system, emphasizing that true sovereignty belongs to God, with humans as executors of God’s will. A government enforcing God’s rules commands the people’s obedience. Al-Maududi outlined three state institutions: executive, legislative, and judiciary, functioning independently. The head of state, also the executive leader, must consult the Shura Council but isn’t bound by its majority opinion. The people must monitor the head of state, who can be dismissed if driven by personal desires. To prevent dictatorship, the head of state’s powers should be administratively limited, though Al-Maududi did not specify the term of office. In legislative elections, self-nomination is discouraged as it undermines political and social morale, contrary to Islamic law. Al-Maududi also opposed Muslim women holding key government positions or sitting in the Shura Council and People’s Council. Establishing an Islamic state is deemed essential to implement Allah’s commands in all life aspects.

Abstract

This research aims to explore bitcoin as an online payment system of pee-to-peer electronic money sent directly from one party to another without going through financial institutions. The existence of bitcoin as a virtual currency is considered legal, or allowed with conditions, namely if it is recognised by the state. The rights and obligations to manage iqtishadiah including the issuance of new currencies are the authority of the state. In this research, all factors, both oral and written, from data sources have been taken and presented to answer the problems in the research. Therefore, this research is a type of descriptive research, which is research that makes a description of situations or events. In this case, bitcoin is not issued by the state and is not recognised by the Indonesian bank, so bitcoin is a currency that is considered illegal in Indonesia. The concept of bitcoin according to classical scholars and contemporary scholars includes: first, bitcoin in function is the same and there is no difference. Second, the content of bitcoin legality is illegal currency in Indonesia. Third, the weakness side can be used as a money laundering tool. Bitcoin is a digital currency that can be used by developed countries. This currency is haram li ghairihi, because the violation is caused by something else, not the substance of bitcoin itself.

Abstract

Minangkabau is one of the cultures or ethnic groups in Indonesia that remains a popular subject for research from both cultural and religious perspectives. This is understandable given that the traditions within Minangkabau culture offer intriguing aspects for scholars to analyse. For instance, the matriarchal system in Minangkabau presents a paradox between the matrilineal perspective in culture and the patrilineal perspective in religion, showcasing the Minangkabau community's efforts to accommodate and reconcile cultural and religious approaches. This paper aims to explore the social relations within the Minangkabau community from Hamka's perspective as presented in Tafsir Al-Azhar. This study falls into the category of literary research with a qualitative approach. The data sources for this research are drawn from various library references, including the Tafsir Al-Azhar as the primary source and other related books as secondary sources. The data analysis method employed is content analysis. This research indicates that Hamka has a unique reading of social relations in Minangkabau, highlighting the distinctive influence of matriarchal/matrilineal practices on the social order of Minangkabau society. The explanation of social relations in Minangkabau exists in his tafsir as a tool to provide analogies or explanations of the meaning of verses, making them easier for readers to understand, considering that Tafsir predominantly has a social orientation.
The Interpretation of the Verse of Qiwāmah from the Perspective of Muhammad Sa'id Ramadhān al-Būthī: An Analysis of the Book Al-Mar'ah bain Thughyān al-Nidzām al-Gharbiy wa Lathā'if al-Tasyri' al-Rabbaniy Fitriyah, Zakiyatul

Abstract

This paper discusses the leadership relations between men and women in Islam, especially in the context of qiwāmah based on the views of Muhammad Sa'id Ramadhān al-Būthī in the book al-Mar'ah bain Thughyān al-Nidzām al-Gharbiy wa Lathā'if al-Tasyri' al-Rabbaniy. The purpose of this study is to examine in depth the meaning of qiwāmah according to al-Būthī and how this concept is applied in the relationship between husband and wife. This study uses a qualitative method by analysing the main text of the book, as well as other literature related to the issue of qiwāmah. With a moderate and comprehensive tafsir approach, al-Būthī interprets 'qiwāmah' as the husband's responsibility to protect and nurture the family, not domination over the wife. The husband's leadership is based on his physical advantages and his role as breadwinner, but without demeaning the wife. In essence, wives still have the right to work and contribute economically as long as the work does not burden them.

Abstract

This article explores the controversy through the perspective of environmental theology developed by Sayyed Hossein Nasr. Nasr, an Islamic scientist and theologian, argued that the principles of trust (responsibility) and caliph (leader) in Islam emphasize the importance of wise and sustainable management of natural resources. He also criticized consumerism and exploitation that undermines the ecological balance and spirituality. Viewed from Nasr's point of view, this article suggests that NU's mining concessions need to be evaluated to ensure their conformity with the principles of sustainable development and environmental responsibility, as well as the need for education and awareness of environmental theology in mining practices.

Abstract

Suku Sasak merupakan suku terbesar di NTB dan sebagian besar mendiami pulau Lombok walaupun juga banyak tersebar di kabupaten kota lain yang ada di NTB maupun diberbagai provinsi lain di Indonesia. Jika dilihat dari sisi historis masyarakat Sasak Lombok merupakan masyarakat banyak menyimpan cerita, baik cerita penaklukan maupun cerita abstraksi lainnya. Dalam berbagai buku sejarah disebutkan jika Suku Sasak pernah berselisih atau diinvasi oleh suku lain sebut saja misalkan, oleh Suku Jawa, Makassar, Bugis, Bali, dan seterusnya sehingga pernah berhasil menguasai Lombok lebih kurang satu milenium. Sehingga dalam proses dinamika penaklukan Suku Sasak tersebut terselip berbagai cerita rakyat yang beneran terjadi maupun yang lebih bersifat abstraksi atau foklor. Maka cerita tersebut diteliti menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif jenis library research (penelitian kepustakaan). Maka penelitian ini menyimpulkan jika, terdapat dua cerita rakyat sasak yang penulis atau peneliti kaji yaitu cerita yang didalamnya memiliki pesan-pesan nilai politik, yang pertama adalah cerita rakyat sasak Putri Mandalika dan yang kedua cerita rakyat sasak Asal Muasal Nama Kota Ampenan. Lebih jauh kajian ini menunjukkan bahwa terdapat masing-masing dua bentuk-bentuk nilai politik yang terkandung dalam cerita rakyat sasak tersebut, yakni Kebebasan individu, Persatuan, Kepercayaan dan Tanggung jawab. Dan nilai-nilai politik cerita rakyat sasak tersebut dalam implementasi birokrasi pemerintahan sekarang ini terdapat keselaranasan dalam arti yang lain babhwa kedua nilai tersebut masih berjalana diamalkan hingga saat ini dalam birokrasi pemerintahana, nilai yang dimaksud dalam temuan hasil kajian ini adalah adanya implementasi nilai kebebasan Individu dalam berekpresi serta nilai persatuan yang masih terjaga dengan baik.

Abstract

We analyzed how Pilkada content on the @ricowaas Instagram account shapes political awareness among students at UINSU. To do this, we studied posts from the 2024 Medan City Pilkada campaign and interviewed eight students. We found that the content mostly highlighted personal branding, community interactions, and campaign promises. It helped increase student knowledge, though it did not directly dictate their voting choices. Students showed different levels of awareness. Some focused on simple visual branding, while others practiced critical awareness, verifying facts, comparing sources, and weighing actual work programs before forming an opinion. Ultimately, our research shows that social media’s true value is not just in grabbing attention; it is in sparking critical thinking. Thus, political actors should use social media for voter education, not only to spread one-way messages but also to create spaces for dialogue that build political literacy among young people.

Abstract

Customary marriage remains a living institution among the Sasak community of Gadung Mas Village, West Sakra Subdistrict, East Lombok Regency, West Nusa Tenggara, even where such marriages are never registered with the state. This study examines how customary legitimacy and state legal recognition interact when an unregistered customary marriage later generates an inheritance dispute. Using empirical legal research with a socio-legal approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews with a customary leader, a religious leader, and the village head of Gadung Mas, supplemented by a systematic review of national legislation and Scopus-indexed comparative literature on legal pluralism and Indonesian inheritance law. The findings show that marital legitimacy in Gadung Mas rests on three interlocking pillars: adat procession as social legitimacy, religious solemnization (akad nikah) as normative validity, and state registration as administrative certainty; the third pillar is frequently deferred or omitted without the marriage being regarded, locally, as defective. Inheritance disputes are resolved through a multi-tier mechanism that begins with family deliberation (musyawarah keluarga), proceeds to mediation by a customary leader (tokoh adat) working alongside a religious figure, and escalates to the Religious Court only when consensus fails. Read through Griffiths' theory of legal pluralism, Ehrlich's (1936) and Soekanto's (1981) concept of living law, and Radbruch's triad of legal purposes, this pattern is best understood not as a competition between adat and state law but as a functional division of labor: adat law supplies social legitimacy and restorative resolution, while state law supplies evidentiary certainty when adat consensus is unattainable. The study's original contribution is a Social–Juridical Legitimacy Harmonization (SJLH) model that maps how these two forms of legitimacy combine across the marriage cycle and the stages of dispute resolution.
