Abstract

Background: Community medicine increasingly integrates interdisciplinary approaches to address complex determinants of health, including biological, psychological, and social factors. Art-based interventions (ABIs, such as music therapy, visual arts, narrative medicine, and performance) have shown promise in promoting community health, yet their underlying biological mechanisms remain underexplored. Objective: This study aims to examine the contribution of neuroscience in elucidating the mechanisms through which ABIs exert health benefits, thereby reinforcing their scientific legitimacy within the field of community medicine. Methods: A total of 10 peer-reviewed articles were selected based on relevance, methodological quality, and alignment with inclusion criteria. Thematic synthesis and content analysis were used to extract and categorize data on neurological, psychological, and immunological effects of ABIs. Results: The review identified consistent activation of key brain regions, such as the prefrontal cortex, amygdala, anterior cingulate cortex, and insula, during artistic engagement. These neural activities were linked to improvements in emotional regulation, cognitive flexibility, and empathy. Conclusion: Neuroscience provides a biologically grounded explanation for the efficacy of ABIs, validating their integration into community medicine. By influencing neural, endocrine, and immune pathways, ABIs contribute to psychosocial resilience, health promotion, and disease prevention. These findings support the strategic inclusion of arts in public health frameworks, particularly in underserved or culturally diverse communities.

Abstract

The rapid advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has brought significant transformation to the field of education, including Islamic elementary teacher education (PGMI). This study aims to explore how PGMI students can be empowered to develop AI-integrated teaching materials that promote innovation, ethical awareness, and leadership readiness for the future. This research employed a qualitative descriptive method involving PGMI students at Universitas Muhammadiyah Riau as the participants. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation of the process of designing, implementing, and evaluating AI-assisted learning media, and analyzed through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The results reveal that students are able to integrate AI creatively and ethically in developing teaching materials. The use of AI enhances students’ technological competence, critical thinking, and creativity while fostering ethical responsibility in technology utilization. Thus, integrating AI into learning media development serves as a strategic effort to prepare PGMI students as innovative and ethical future educators and leaders in Islamic education.

Abstract

Physiology forms the scientific foundation of modern medicine, linking cellular mechanisms with systemic functions that sustain human life. In the context of contemporary healthcare, understanding physiological principles is not only essential for clinical decision-making but also for effective health management. This study explores the integration of physiological reasoning into health system governance, clinical protocols, and practice management. Through a systematic literature review, this paper examines how physiological understanding informs policies in resource allocation, technology adoption, and service delivery. The findings reveal that physiological literacy among healthcare leaders improves clinical efficiency, enhances patient safety, and supports rational health planning. Therefore, strengthening physiological education and its application in health management is crucial to building sustainable, effective, and patient-centered health systems.

Abstract

This paper develops a conceptual framework for integrating zakat and waqf as complementary instruments aimed at sustainable economic empowerment. The two main pillars of Islamic social finance, zakat and waqf, have historically and theologically pursued complementing social goals of the public interest (maslahah), social protection, and poverty alleviation. In many Muslim-majority nations, waqf (an endowment intended to produce enduring public benefit) and zakat (a redistributive, mandatory alms giving) have mainly functioned in separate institutional and legal frameworks while having a similar goal of improving human welfare and acts of worship. This paper aims to discuss the strategic integration of zakat and waqf, particularly in contemporary forms like cash waqf, zakat-funded waqf seed capital, and joint zakat-waqf impact programs, to significantly increase the resource base for programs aimed at sustainable economic empowerment, boost the effectiveness of attaining the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and enhance governance and accountability in Islamic social finance. The paper presents an operational framework for integration, addresses governance safeguards and shariah considerations, and provides policy recommendations to practitioners, regulators, and donors using a systematic literature synthesis, comparative models, and illustrative case studies (Indonesia, Malaysia, Nigeria) and contemporary conceptual models. The study concludes that, despite operational, legal, and institutional obstacles, digitally enabled governance, standardized impact indicators, and hybrid public-private partnerships offer practical means to scale zakat-waqf integration for inclusive and sustainable development.

Abstract

This study aims to construct a conceptual framework that explains how zakat contributes to shared prosperity and supports the development of a sustainable society. It seeks to model measurable links between zakat distribution and key social-sector indicators, such as poverty, education, employment, health, and household welfare, using the available national indicators. The study builds a conceptual framework that integrates zakat and shared prosperity within sustainability theory. The zakat is effective in reducing vulnerabilities and promoting shared prosperity within four objective indicators, which are reduced poverty, better education, improved health, and economic inclusion. This study is primarily conceptual, and therefore, it needs further simulated empirical modelling on the availability and quality of real-world datasets. Many national statistics data variables are not directly relevant as data sources for zakat impact, which can lead to more integrated data available for shared prosperity. The results can assist zakat institutions in improving targeting accuracy, designing evidence-based intervention programs, and aligning zakat distribution with national poverty-reduction strategies. Policymakers may use the framework to integrate zakat into broader social protection systems and data integration. By demonstrating how zakat contributes to shared prosperity, the study reinforces zakat’s role in reducing inequality, strengthening social cohesion, and enhancing the welfare of vulnerable groups. It also promotes a sustainable society where economic justice and moral responsibility converge. This study offers a unique combination of conceptual theory and empirical modelling for zakat effectiveness, supported by a measurable framework tied to national indicators. It is among the first to propose a scalable zakat–shared-prosperity model, enabling future studies to replicate, refine, and apply the approach in policy and institutional settings.

Abstract

Artikel ini bertujuan untuk meneliti lintasan historis dan intelektual gerakan reformasi Kaum Muda dan peran pentingnya dalam membangun identitas Muslim moderat di Indonesia. Studi ini berupaya menunjukkan bagaimana etos reformis Kaum Muda telah membentuk moderasi Islam, progresivisme, dan keterlibatan sosial dari awal abad ke-20 hingga periode kontemporer. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan konseptual-kualitatif dengan analisis historis-kritis dan tinjauan pustaka. Data primer diambil dari buku-buku akademis, artikel jurnal yang ditelaah sejawat, dokumen sejarah, dan karya-karya intelektual kunci tentang reformasi Islam, Islam Indonesia, dan moderasi. Analisis ini mensintesis periode sejarah, wacana reformasi, dan dinamika kontemporer untuk mengidentifikasi pola kontinuitas dan transformasi. Studi ini menemukan bahwa reformasi Kaum Muda meletakkan fondasi yang kokoh bagi moderasi Islam Indonesia melalui reformasi pendidikan, integrasi pengetahuan agama dan sains, dan penekanan pada etika sosial daripada dominasi politik. Ekspresi kontemporer Islam moderat dan Islam progresif ditunjukkan sebagai perluasan dari warisan reformis ini. Lebih lanjut, pengalaman Indonesia menunjukkan bahwa Islam dapat hidup berdampingan secara konstruktif dengan demokrasi, pluralisme, dan nilai-nilai kemanusiaan global. Penelitian ini berkontribusi pada pemahaman yang lebih mendalam tentang moderasi Islam sebagai proyek peradaban, bukan sekadar agenda politik jangka pendek. Penelitian ini memberikan wawasan konseptual bagi para pembuat kebijakan, pendidik, dan lembaga keagamaan dalam memperkuat Islam moderat melalui pendidikan, tata kelola, dan keterlibatan sosial. Artikel ini menawarkan kerangka kerja historis-konseptual terintegrasi yang menghubungkan reformasi Kaum Muda awal dengan tantangan masa kini dan masa depan, memposisikan Islam Indonesia sebagai model Islam yang konstruktif, progresif, dan moderat di abad ke-21 dan seterusnya.

Abstract

Kajian ini membahas pentingnya Tadabbur Quran, sebuah praktik refleksi mendalam terhadap ayat-ayat Al-Quran, terutama menyoroti ayat-ayat Surah At-Taubah ayat 67-70. Kajian ini menekankan pentingnya memahami dan mengimplementasikan ajaran Al-Quran dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan hermeneutika, kajian ini menjelajahi makna-makna halus dari ayat-ayat tersebut, menyoroti ancaman serius yang Allah tujukan kepada orang munafik, seperti dilupakan-Nya mereka, siksaan abadi di Neraka, dan sia-sia dari perbuatan mereka. Kajian ini menarik pelajaran bagi umat Muslim kontemporer, mendorong mereka untuk mengenali perilaku munafik, menghindari godaan duniawi, belajar dari kesalahan peradaban masa lampau, menegakkan ketaatan agama, dan memupuk dukungan saling antar mukmin. Tadabbur Quran dan analisis hermeneutika disajikan sebagai alat penting untuk memahami hikmah yang dalam dari Al-Quran dan menghadapi tantangan moral dan spiritual.
Pro-Kontra Fenomena Jamaah Majelis Sholawat Berjoget: Perspektif Etika Islam Dari Abdurrahman Al-Baghdadi Dan Imam Jauzi Prabowo, Yuga Bayu; Ervani, Dilfam Adisya; Archningtia, Putri Dwi

Abstract

Kajian ini membahas fenomena berjoget dalam majelis shalawat melalui studi kepustakaan dengan pendekatan deskriptif-analitis (library research). Data diperoleh dari sumber primer, yaitu karya Abdurrahman Al-Baghdadi dan Imam Ibnul Jauzi, serta sumber sekunder seperti jurnal ilmiah, artikel akademik, dan dokumentasi media sosial. Fokus analisis adalah perbandingan pandangan kedua ulama mengenai seni dalam ibadah. Hasil kajian menunjukkan perbedaan perspektif di antara mereka. Imam Ibnul Jauzi menolak gerakan berlebihan dalam ibadah karena dianggap dapat menghilangkan kekhusyukan dan menjadi tipu daya setan. Menurutnya, ibadah harus dilakukan dengan ketenangan dan ketundukan hati sesuai dengan tuntunan Rasulullah SAW. Sebaliknya, Abdurrahman Al-Baghdadi berpendapat bahwa seni, termasuk ekspresi gerakan dalam sholawat, dapat menjadi sarana dakwah jika tidak melanggar batasan syariat. Ia menilai bahwa selama gerakan tetap beradab, tidak menimbulkan fitnah, dan tidak melalaikan dari dzikir, maka dapat diterima dalam konteks spiritual dan dakwah. Dalam hukum Islam, berjoget dalam ibadah memiliki status hukum yang berbeda tergantung pada konteksnya. Jika dilakukan dengan adab dan tetap menjaga kekhusyukan, maka hukumnya bisa mubah (diperbolehkan). Namun, jika berlebihan dan menjadikannya lebih mirip hiburan daripada ibadah, maka hukumnya menjadi makruh atau bahkan haram. Kesimpulannya, seni dapat menjadi media dakwah, tetapi ibadah harus tetap dijaga kesakralannya. Pandangan yang lebih kuat adalah pendekatan kehati-hatian sebagaimana ditekankan oleh Imam Ibnul Jauzi, sedangkan pendekatan Abdurrahman Al-Baghdadi dapat diterapkan dalam ranah seni dengan batasan yang jelas sesuai nilai-nilai Islam.

Abstract

The rapid advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has intensified ethical debates within contemporary technology studies. Nevertheless, current AI ethics discourse remains predominantly shaped by Western philosophical paradigms such as utilitarianism, deontology, and virtue ethics, which often overlook moral, social, and spiritual dimensions central to non-Western societies, including Islamic ethical traditions. This study aims to map contemporary AI ethics scholarship, critically examine Islamic ethical responses to AI, and develop an evaluative framework grounded in Maqasid al-Shariah. Using a qualitative approach with a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) design, this research analyzes peer- reviewed publications from the last decade drawn from major academic databases. Data analysis is conducted through thematic analysis, comparative analysis, and conceptual synthesis. The findings reveal that Islamic AI ethics studies are still dominated by normative and declarative approaches, with limited operationalization of Maqasid al-Shariah as an evaluative tool, and a notable absence of integrative models connecting Islamic ethics with global AI ethics frameworks. This study contributes theoretically by positioning Maqasid al- Shar??ah as a holistic, value-based, and applicable ethical framework for assessing AI in relation to justice, public welfare, and the protection of human dignity within a global technological context.

Abstract

Within the larger context of Islamic social finance, this research explores how waqf has evolved from a conventional charitable organization to a useful tool for long-term socioeconomic development. In Muslim societies throughout history, waqf has been essential in promoting communal welfare, healthcare, education, and religious institutions. However, weak governance structures, insufficient legal and regulatory frameworks, poor asset management, and a lack of strategic alignment with national and community development goals have limited its effectiveness in many modern contexts. Waqf is therefore frequently limited to temporary humanitarian endeavors rather than being utilized as a long-term development organization. This research investigates the evolving role of waqf within Islamic social finance using a qualitative research technique. It draws on an extensive survey of scholarly literature, policy documents, chosen case studies, and insights from expert interviews. The analysis finds important institutional, ethical, and practical constraints that impede waqf's developmental potential, such as governance flaws, inadequate transparency, poor public awareness, and fragmented cooperation with other Islamic social finance mechanisms like zakat. The findings show that waqf has considerable untapped potential to contribute to long-term human development when repositioned within a comprehensive development framework. Institutional reforms, professional management practices, accountability systems, and policy integration appear to be significant variables for improving its efficacy. The research suggests that integrating waqf with maq??id al-shar??ah objectives and current development concerns can reposition it as a sustainable funding mechanism alongside other Islamic finance instruments. The research concludes with practical policy proposals aimed at strengthening waqf governance, institutional capacity, and strategic relevance, thus increasing its contribution to long-term social and economic growth in Muslim nations.
