Abstract

This study aims to analyze the practice of buying and selling shared Canva Premium accounts from the perspective of Sharia Economic Law. The increasing demand for digital design tools has led to the emergence of account-sharing transactions, where premium access is resold by third-party sellers at lower prices. Although economically attractive, this practice raises legal and Sharia concerns related to contractual compliance, ownership of digital access rights, and the continuity of benefits.This research employs a qualitative approach using normative analysis of Islamic commercial law (fiqh muamalah) combined with an examination of digital transaction practices. The data were analyzed based on the principles of Sharia Economic Law, particularly the concepts of milk al-manfa'ah (ownership of benefits), gharar (uncertainty), darar (harm), and al-wafa' bi al-'aqd (fulfillment of contractual obligations).The findings indicate that shared Canva Premium account transactions may conceptually be understood as the transfer of digital benefits. However, such transactions are considered problematic due to contractual violations of platform terms, uncertainty regarding access continuity, and the risk of account suspension. These conditions introduce elements of gharar and potential harm, which undermine the validity of the transaction under Sharia principles.This study contributes to the development of contemporary Islamic commercial jurisprudence by highlighting the legal implications of digital subscription-based services. It also provides a critical perspective on the application of Sharia principles in evaluating modern digital economic practices.

Abstract

The wasiat wajibah is a form of reform in Islamic inheritance law that has evolved to provide protection to family members who do not receive their rights under the classical inheritance system. This study aims to analyze the regulations governing wasiat wajibah in Indonesia, Egypt, and Pakistan and to assess their relevance as an instrument of family protection from the perspective of the maqashid al-sharia. This study employs a normative legal method using legislative, conceptual, and comparative legal approaches. Legal materials were obtained from legislation, legal literature, and scholarly articles, which were analyzed qualitatively. The results indicate that all three countries share the same objective to provide economic protection to family members who may lose their rights due to the application of the classical inheritance system but employ different mechanisms. Indonesia regulates the mandatory bequest for adopted children and adoptive parents through Article 209 of the Compilation of Islamic Law; Egypt grants a mandatory bequest to grandchildren who are barred from receiving an inheritance through Qanun al-Wasiyyah No. 71 of 1946; while Pakistan implements a system of heir representation through Article 4 of the Muslim Family Laws Ordinance of 1961. From the perspective of maqashid al-sharia, these three models are oriented toward the protection of descendants (hifz al-nasl) and the protection of property (hifz al-mal), thereby demonstrating that Islamic inheritance law possesses the flexibility to achieve justice and the public interest in accordance with the needs of society.

Abstract

Judicial ethics constitutes a fundamental pillar in ensuring justice, integrity, and accountability within legal systems. In Islamic teachings, the judicial profession is regarded as an amanah (trust) that requires judges to uphold ethical and moral principles in carrying out their duties. This study aims to analyze the ethical principles that guide judicial conduct from an Islamic perspective and to examine their relevance to contemporary judicial professionalism. This study employed a normative juridical approach using statutory and conceptual approaches. Data were collected through library research from legal regulations, Islamic legal sources, academic books, and scholarly journal articles, and were analyzed qualitatively through descriptive and thematic analysis. The findings reveal that Islamic judicial ethics is fundamentally grounded in the prophetic values of shidiq (truthfulness), amanah (trustworthiness), tabligh (transparency), fatanah (competence and wisdom), and istiqamah (consistency). These ethical values provide a comprehensive framework for judicial conduct by integrating moral integrity, professional responsibility, and spiritual accountability. The study further finds that Islamic judicial ethics contributes significantly to the realization of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah through the protection of rights, prevention of injustice, and promotion of social welfare. Moreover, Islamic judicial ethics demonstrates substantial compatibility with contemporary judicial standards, particularly the principles of independence, impartiality, integrity, accountability, equality, and competence reflected in the Bangalore Principles of Judicial Conduct. This study concludes that Islamic judicial ethics remains highly relevant as a normative and practical framework for strengthening judicial professionalism, enhancing public trust, and improving judicial governance in contemporary legal systems.

Abstract

This study examines the transformation of Pondok Pesantren Darussalam Kersamanah, Garut, from 1986 to 2021 as a dynamic process of institutional adaptation within contemporary Islamic education in Indonesia. This study addresses an important gap in pesantren studies, as previous research has largely focused on general modernization trends, while limited attention has been given to longitudinal historical analyses of pesantren transformation using institutional perspectives. This research employs a historical method involving heuristics, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography. Data were collected from archival documents, institutional records, internal publications, and interviews with key informants. Talcott Parsons’ structural-functional theory was employed as the analytical framework to examine how pesantren adapt to changing social and educational environments while maintaining institutional continuity. The findings reveal that the transformation of Pondok Pesantren Darussalam occurred through three major phases: the pioneering phase (1986–1995), the consolidation phase (1996–2008), and the expansion phase (2009–2021). The transformation involved three major dimensions: institutional transformation, educational transformation, and social transformation. The findings show that Darussalam successfully evolved from a relatively small pesantren into a modern Islamic educational institution through governance restructuring, educational innovation, infrastructure expansion, digital adaptation, and economic strengthening. Despite significant modernization, the pesantren maintained its core identity through the preservation of Islamic values, discipline, classical Islamic scholarship, and character formation. This study demonstrates that pesantren transformation in contemporary Indonesia should be understood as a multidimensional process involving adaptation, continuity, modernization, and institutional sustainability. The study contributes to broader discussions on pesantren studies and Islamic education by offering a structural-functional perspective for understanding the transformation of Islamic educational institutions in modern Indonesia.

Abstract

This study examines the practice of gold-indexed land pawning in Tlonto Ares Village, Pamekasan Regency, and analyzes its compatibility with the principles of Islamic Economic Law. The study addresses an important gap in the literature, as existing research on land pawn transactions has primarily focused on collateral utilization and the general legality of rahn, while limited attention has been given to gold-based debt valuation in rural community transactions. This research employs an empirical legal method with a qualitative socio-juridical approach. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation involving pledgors (rahin), pledge holders (murtahin), religious leaders, community figures, and village officials. The findings reveal that land is used as collateral, while the debt value is converted into a specific quantity of gold at the time of contract formation and repayment is adjusted according to prevailing gold prices at redemption. During the contract period, the pledge holder also retains control over and benefits from the pledged land. The study identifies a dual-benefit structure in which the pledge holder gains both economic protection through gold indexation and additional benefits from land utilization. From the perspective of Islamic Economic Law, this practice partially supports the objective of wealth protection (ḥifẓ al-māl) by preserving the real value of debt. However, it also raises significant concerns regarding riba, gharar, contractual imbalance, and potential economic exploitation. Viewed through the framework of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah, the practice reflects a tension between wealth protection and the realization of justice (al-‘adālah) and public welfare (maslahah). This study contributes to Islamic Economic Law scholarship by demonstrating that the legal assessment of community-based pawn transactions must extend beyond formal contractual validity to include substantive justice, proportional benefit distribution, and broader socio-economic welfare.

Abstract

Advocates occupy a strategic position as law enforcers and play a crucial role in ensuring access to justice, protecting legal rights, and maintaining the integrity of judicial processes. However, the increasing involvement of advocates in legal misconduct, including bribery, corruption, document forgery, breaches of confidentiality, conflicts of interest, and obstruction of justice, has raised serious concerns regarding professional integrity and ethical accountability. This study aims to analyze the enforcement of the Advocate Code of Ethics against advocates who commit legal misconduct and to evaluate such enforcement through the principles of amanah (trustworthiness) and al-‘adl (justice) in Islamic law. This study employed normative legal research using statutory, conceptual, and Islamic law approaches. The research relied on primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials collected through an extensive literature review and analyzed using qualitative legal analysis. The findings reveal that although ethical enforcement in Indonesia is supported by a relatively comprehensive legal framework through Law Number 18 of 2003 and the Indonesian Advocate Code of Ethics, its implementation remains constrained by weak disciplinary supervision, inconsistent sanctions, limited transparency, institutional fragmentation among advocate organizations, and the separation between ethical accountability and criminal liability. From the perspective of Islamic law, legal misconduct committed by advocates reflects a failure to uphold the principles of amanah and justice, which constitute the moral foundation of professional integrity. This study offers an integrative analytical framework that combines positive law and Islamic legal ethics to evaluate ethical enforcement and argues that strengthening advocate professionalism requires not only regulatory compliance but also the internalization of trustworthiness, fairness, accountability, and justice.

Abstract

This study examines Muhammad Arkoun’s thought on the sacred and the profane in Islamic thought and analyzes how these categories shape the historical development of Islamic intellectual traditions. The study is motivated by the persistent epistemological problem in Muslim societies, particularly the tendency to conflate divine revelation with human interpretations, which has contributed to the sacralization of intellectual products, the formation of orthodoxy, and the narrowing of critical inquiry. While previous studies on Arkoun have largely focused on his critique of Islamic reason and hermeneutics, limited attention has been given to the sacred-profane dialectic as a historical structure in Islamic thought. This study employs qualitative library research using historical-intellectual and philosophical approaches. Primary data were obtained from Muhammad Arkoun’s major works, while secondary data consisted of books, journal articles, and other relevant scholarly sources. Data were analyzed using content analysis through thematic, historical, and philosophical interpretation. The findings reveal that Arkoun firmly distinguishes between the sacred, which originates from divine revelation and prophetic experience, and the profane, which consists of human interpretations and socio-historical constructions. The study also shows that the transition from the Qur’anic fact to the Islamic fact marked a crucial transformation in Islamic intellectual history, contributing to the emergence of orthodoxy, sacralization, and epistemological rigidity. Furthermore, social actors such as religious scholars, political authorities, and reformist movements played significant roles in shaping the dynamics of Islamic thought. This study concludes that Arkoun’s Applied Islamology offers an important framework for reconstructing contemporary Islamic thought through a more critical, historical, and contextual approach.

Abstract

The formation of the integral human being requires an understanding of biological, intellectual, spiritual, and moral dimensions. However, studies integrating Islamic philosophy and modern neuroscience in explaining this formation remain limited. This study examines the concepts of consciousness proposed by Ibn Sina and Santiago Ramón y Cajal and formulates a conceptual synthesis for integral human development. Using library research with a comparative approach, the study analyzes Ibn Sina’s Aḥwāl al-Nafs and Al-Najāh, alongside Cajal’s Texture of the Nervous System of Man and the Vertebrates and Advice for a Young Investigator. Data were analyzed through concept identification, classification, comparison, interpretation, and synthesis. The findings show that Ibn Sina understands consciousness as a manifestation of the soul (al-nafs) actualized through intellect (al-‘aql) toward intellectual, spiritual, and moral maturity. In contrast, Cajal explains consciousness through neuronal organization, the nervous system, and neuroplasticity as the biological basis of cognition. These perspectives are complementary, producing a model of integral human formation that unifies biological, intellectual, spiritual, and moral dimensions. This study contributes to interdisciplinary scholarship and provides a holistic foundation for education, character development, and future human-development research.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the concept of boycott and its relevance to Qur’an Surah Al-Mā’idah (5):2 from the perspective of Tafsir Al-Azhar by Buya Hamka. The study employed a qualitative approach using library research. The primary data consisted of Qur’an Surah Al-Mā’idah (5):2 and Tafsir Al-Azhar, while secondary data were obtained from books, journal articles, and other relevant literature. Data were collected through documentation and analyzed using content analysis and descriptive-interpretative analysis. The findings indicate that Qur’an Surah Al-Mā’idah (5):2 contains a command to cooperate in righteousness and piety and a prohibition against cooperation in sin and hostility. From Hamka’s perspective, these principles encompass both social relations and economic activities. A boycott may be understood as a form of moral responsibility and humanitarian solidarity when it seeks to reduce support for injustice, is conducted peacefully, is based on valid information, and takes public benefit into consideration. This study emphasizes that boycott is not merely an economic action but also has ethical, social, and spiritual dimensions. The novelty of this study lies in integrating the concept of boycott, the principle of ta‘āwun (mutual cooperation), and the perspective of Tafsir Al-Azhar as a framework for contemporary boycott ethics.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the concept of gharimin in Surah At-Taubah verse 60 according to the Qur’anic Exegesis of the Ministry of Religious Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia and to examine its relevance to the phenomenon of online lending from the perspective of hifẓ al-māl (the protection of wealth). This study employed a qualitative approach using library research. Primary data were obtained from Al-Qur’an dan Tafsirnya, published by the Ministry of Religious Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia, while secondary data were derived from Qur’anic exegesis books, scholarly books, journal articles, regulations, and relevant literature on zakat, maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah, and online lending. The data were analyzed using content analysis through a thematic exegesis approach. The findings indicate that gharimin refers to individuals who are burdened by debt and unable to repay it for reasons recognized by Islamic law. The Ministry of Religious Affairs’ interpretation identifies gharimin as eligible recipients of zakat who should be assisted in alleviating economic hardship and preserving their dignity. This concept is relevant to individuals trapped in online lending due to urgent needs, high interest rates and penalties, and limited financial literacy. Within the framework of hifẓ al-māl, zakat functions not only as a means of debt relief but also as a preventive instrument through financial literacy, economic empowerment, social solidarity, and the development of Islamic financing. Therefore, the interpretation of the verse concerning gharimin may serve as a normative foundation for protecting society from the economic consequences of digital debt and for promoting justice, public welfare, and economic resilience.
