Abstract

Asnaf Faqir refers to a group of indigent people who have no source of income, possess neither property or material of their own, and they earn less than 50 percent of their own and their dependents’ basic necessities in life. This study was conducted to identify the indicators that can be used to steadily empower destitute people based on Imam Al-Ghazali’s thoughts and views. The subsequent findings produced a basic framework for the formation of Asnaf Faqir’s career path, based on the concept of spirituality. This qualitative study used library methods for the data collection. The data for this study were collected through various documents and manuscripts, including the Holy Quran, Books of Hadith, Al-Ghazali’s works, journal articles, and others. The data for this study were analyzed deductively and inductively to extract basic spiritual principles related to career paths, as suggested by Al-Ghazali. This study shows that the elements of al-Ruh, al-Insan, al-‘Aql, al-Qalb and al-Jasad of humans are important in shaping the career path of Asnaf Faqir. These five elements were found to be critical factors in fulfilling the planning, exploration, gathering of information, and determination of the career path of Asnaf Faqir as entrepreneurs or skilled workers.

Abstract

Indonesia stands firm in its democratic values and respects its presidential election in 2024. However, the scent of the history of identity politics still lingers and threatens the harmony of voting. Even though identity politics seem to be a common and acceptable method, it bears danger, especially to Christians as a minority. This can happen through the burdens and biases of Christians to vote. Through descriptive literature methods of biblical perspective with contextual interpretation alongside political reviews and literature, this paper tries to answer the question of how a Christian should vote for their future leader amidst the pressure of identity politics. The Bible can be a clear guideline to show that such political events and methods had already occurred in the Old Testament and New Testament eras. The wisdom contained in the Proverbs that was intended for future young leaders, as well as the wisdom of Jesus Christ, can help shape the answer on how a Christian should vote for their future leaders. This paper finds that Christians as minorities should try to be objective following biblical standards and the quality of a leader, such as righteousness, multiple councils, servanthood, and accountability, rather than drowning in misconceptions of defensive and subjective votes based on religion-ethnicity sameness or popular opinion.

Abstract

The vocational high school principal is a determining factor for the progress or failure of a school. Therefore, the principal's performance evaluation must be optimal. This study explores the government direction on this performance evaluation in two neighboring countries: Indonesia and Malaysia. The research method uses a qualitative approach, by interviewing both school supervisors and principals, and analyzing documents. The steps are 1) collection of resources through multi techniques; 2) reducing data with the aim of simplifying and categorizing data; 3) presenting data in the form of qualitative descriptions; 4) drawing conclusions and 5) compiling research reports and formulate comparative research findings. For Indonesia, once a year, the School Supervisor and a team from the Education Office in Indonesia are responsible for carrying out the review of the performance of the principals of vocational schools. The current evaluation of the principal of a vocational high school in Malaysia is a component of the overall review of the school's performance. Standard of Educational Quality in Malaysia is the name given to this evaluation, and it has been in effect since 2017. Standard 1 Kepemimpin is the most important benchmark to consider in relation to principal performance (Leadership). The performance evaluation in Indonesia seems still separated from school performance evaluation or accreditation. Although each evaluation scheme has its own format and purposes, the implementation could be made in such a concurrent time. Meanwhile in Malaysia, the principal performance is likely one of the evaluated aspects in the school performance evaluation (SKPM), especially Standard 1 Kepemimpinan (leadership) and Standard 2 Pengurusan Organisasi (organization management).

Abstract

The rapid advancement of modern technology, particularly in the context of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (IR 4.0), presents Muslims with a range of complex challenges, including ethical dilemmas and questions regarding the social impact of innovations such as artificial intelligence, biotechnology and digital media. These challenges are significant as they impact daily life and raise profound concerns about the preservation of religious values, identity and social order. While technological progress offers undeniable benefits, it also generates indirect risks that may be overlooked if assessed solely from a utilitarian or secular perspective. Against this backdrop, Islamic law, guided by the higher objectives of maqāṣid al-sharī`ah provides a principled and comprehensive framework for evaluating technological innovation, ensuring that developments remain aligned with core Islamic moral and ethical standards and ultimately promote human well-being in a holistic sense. Central to this approach are the concepts of al-thawābit (the immutable) and al-mutaghayyirāt (the changeable) which serve as critical tools for adapting Islamic legal rulings to new technological realities. This article adopts a library research and content analysis methodology to examine existing literature and provide a comprehensive understanding of Shariah’s role, specifically through the lens of maqāṣid al-sharī`ah in regulating technological advancements. The study concludes that although technology constitutes part of al-mutaghayyirāt and continues to evolve, the immutable principles of maqāṣid al-sharī`ah serve as an essential safeguard to ensure that technological change continues to advance the holistic well-being of humanity. In sum, the maqāṣid al-sharī`ah framework provides the critical criteria for balancing benefits and harms, ensuring that technological advancement ultimately serves the comprehensive well-being and public interest (maṣlaḥah) of humanity.

Abstract

Crowdfunding, a modern scheme of raising funds via online platforms, has garnered significant attention in recent years. This study explores crowdfunding through the lens of Islamic jurisprudence, explicitly examining its compatibility with Maqasid al-Shariah (the high objectives of Islamic law). This study utilises a qualitative research approach to explore the harmonious alignment of crowdfunding practices with Islamic principles. The findings illuminate that, despite its modern guise, crowdfunding is profoundly rooted in Islamic traditions, bolstered by diverse interpretations of the Quran and foundational Islamic beliefs. Remarkably, the study affirms that crowdfunding resonates with the essence of Maqasid al-Shariah, especially in its remarkable potential to preserve and enhance wealth (Māl). The implications of this research are crucial for policymakers and Islamic institutions seeking to leverage crowdfunding for economic growth and financial inclusion while adhering to Shariah principles. This study contributes to the growing literature on Islamic finance and fintech, offering a unique perspective on the intersection of faith and technology in financial innovation.
