Abstract

This study examines the typology of the work ethic of the people on the North Coast (PANTURA) of Java Island and the correlation between work ethic typology and economic conditions. The research uses qualitative and quantitative methods to focus on communities in Indramayu, Cirebon City, and Cirebon Regency. Results show that 86% of respondents follow the Qadariyah Theological Doctrine, 6.6% adhere to the Jabariyah Doctrine, and another 6.6% have a combined Qadariyah-Jabariyah typology. 86% of workers in the private sector align with Qadariyah, while all civil servants follow Qadariyah. A significant correlation exists between work ethic typology and income: Qadariyah adherents generally have higher monthly incomes than those following Jabariyah or combined typologies. Respondents with Jabariyah and combined typologies typically earn less than 5 million monthly rupiah. Among the 26 respondents with a Qadariyah work ethic, 14 earn more than 5 million rupiah monthly. The study concludes that theological doctrines significantly influence work ethic and economic conditions in Java's coastal areas.

Santri, in this context, refers to students in Islamic boarding schools. A qualitative descriptive research method involves data collection through observation, interviews, and document analysis. The findings revealed that sholawat therapy with role-playing techniques had a significant positive impact on Santri's self-confidence. Santri, who participated in this program, experienced increased self-confidence, more active involvement in religious activities, and positive changes in their social behavior. This study suggests that sholawat therapy with role-playing techniques is an effective approach to strengthening Santri's self-confidence in the context of religious education.

Abstract

This study aims to determine how the development of research topics related to the performance of the BAZNAS mustahik empowerment program in the last 5 years. The research method used is a qualitative method with a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach using the VOSviewer application on journal papers indexed by Scopus and Google Scholar and published from 2019-2024. The results showed that research interest in BAZNAS empowerment programs has increased over the past 5 years. BAZNAS, in terms of institutions, has a very good performance in carrying out mustahik economic empowerment programs through business capital assistance and not only providing guidance in terms of material but also the spiritual side by running mosque-based programs and collaborating with da'i and Islamic universities as evidenced by the condition of mustahik who have begun to turn into muktafi and munfiq which shows that in Islam there is the concept of abundance, there is a sense of wanting to share despite limitations. However, the obstacles come from the mustahik themselves because their low level of education affects their mindset to change for the better, in addition to the limited human resources of assistants who have not been able to maximize training and coaching.
