Abstract

This research examines the impact of toll road construction on Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) using Creative Destruction theory and contemporary Islamic philanthropy. The construction of toll roads, although accelerating distribution and accessibility, has had a significant negative impact on MSMEs in various regions. This study explores how MSMEs, particularly in North Sumatra, Pekalongan, and Brebes, are experiencing a decline in income due to reduced vehicle traffic. In addition, this article highlights the role of zakat, infaq, and sadaqah as mechanisms to increase the resilience of MSMEs. This research uses a qualitative approach with observation methods, in-depth interviews, and a literature review, showing that Islamic philanthropy can support the adaptation and sustainability of MSMEs amidst infrastructure changes. The research results show that the negative impact of toll road construction is significant, especially for MSMEs that depend on vehicle traffic, such as dodol in Serdang Bedagai, batik in Pekalongan, and restaurants in Brebes. The turnover decline reached 70-80% in some regions. Many MSMEs were also forced to lay off their employees due to decreased income. However, this study also found that Islamic philanthropic practices such as zakat, infaq, and sadaqah play an important role in increasing the resilience of MSMEs. MSME players who regularly carry out zakat, infaq, and sadaqah can show better adaptation, including product diversification and transition to online business models. Thus, Islamic philanthropy provides short-term assistance and supports long-term positive economic changes for MSMEs.

Abstract

Parenting in the family has an impact on the child in all aspects. A contemporary approach to child care will produce an effective and appropriate model for current conditions. Neuroparenting is a contemporary parenting model that is starting to be adopted by many families, especially in Indonesia. This article aims to examine the concept of neuroparenting and find its relevance to contemporary Islamic family law. This article is a qualitative descriptive research whose data was collected from related literature. Literature data was obtained from journals and books that discuss neuroparenting and contemporary Islamic family law, which focuses on discussing the purpose of Islamic law (maqāshid al- al-sharīah). The data was then reduced, presented, and analyzed using an inductive method using hadanah theory and maqāshid al-sharīah to conclude. The research results show that parenting today cannot be separated from developments in science and technology, including neuroparenting. Neuroparenting is a parenting model that uses a medical approach to neuroscience studies. Neuroparenting helps direct child care tailored to gender, age, existing facilities, and infrastructure in the family, especially parents. The implementation of neuroparenting has been under the goals of Islamic law as a form of integration of contemporary science

Abstract

This study explores the policy implications of the TikTok Shop e-commerce platform in the contemporary era through the lens of Siyasah Syar'iyyah. As one of the fastest-growing e-commerce platforms, TikTok Shop has significantly influenced the dynamics of digital transactions and interactions between consumers and businesses. However, with the rapid pace of digital transformation, there is a need for policy evaluation that effectively regulates transactions and aligns with Shariah principles. The research adopts an empirical juridical approach, employing field studies and in-depth interviews as the primary methods for data collection. Interviews were conducted with Islamic economic experts, e-commerce practitioners, and relevant policymakers. The findings indicate that existing TikTok Shop policies can be aligned with Siyasah Syar'iyyah principles by emphasizing justice (al-‘adalah) and public benefit (al-Maslahah). This includes ensuring equal opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and other small-scale entrepreneurs and maintaining that products sold meet Shariah standards, such as being halal and providing transparent product information. However, key challenges in implementing Shariah-based regulations include monitoring the dynamic content and transactions on the platform and addressing the use of algorithms that may be unfair or manipulative. To address these challenges, strict yet adaptive regulations are needed to keep up with technological advancements. The academic contribution of this study lies in advancing a more relevant and practical application of Siyasah Syar'iyyah for regulating digital platforms in the modern era. Furthermore, it provides policy recommendations to create a fairer, more transparent e-commerce ecosystem that upholds Shariah values, delivering long-term benefits for society and the global digital industry.

Abstract

This study examines the application of fiqh tolerance in State Islamic Higher Education Institutions (PTKIN) within the context of contemporary challenges. The research focuses on student responses to religious extremism in Indonesia, which has become increasingly relevant in the era of digital media and globalization. This field study uses data collection methods, including interviews and documentation. Three key findings emerged from this study. First, most students firmly reject religious extremism, although a minority still supports it due to misinformation and the influence of narratives spread through digital media. Second, extremist recruitment strategies in PTKIN are carried out through religious activities, social media, and the dissemination of extremist ideologies through various channels, such as books, journals, and financial support, which have become more sophisticated using information technology. Third, preventive measures involve strengthening academic and non-academic understanding, including integrating religious moderation values into the curriculum, conducting seminars and training, and empowering student organizations to build resilience against extremism within the PTKIN environment. The academic contribution of this study lies in aligning fiqh tolerance with contemporary challenges, particularly in dealing with digital-based extremism, which has become more complex. This research offers a new perspective by integrating religious and social approaches to raise collective awareness among students at PTKIN. Furthermore, the findings enrich academic discourse by providing concrete recommendations for strengthening curricula based on religious moderation and developing adaptive preventive strategies in response to social and technological changes. This makes the study theoretically and practically relevant in creating a more inclusive and resilient higher education environment.

Abstract

This article examines the growing influence of identity politics and polarization in contemporary Muslim countries, focusing on the impact of elections, the widespread role of social media, and global dynamics. As political systems in the Muslim world become more fragmented, identity-based movements—often rooted in ethnic, religious, or sectarian affiliations—have gained significant prominence. These dynamics have heightened political polarization when intertwined with electoral processes, shaping voter behaviour and policymaking. The rise of social media has further transformed political engagement, both as a platform for grassroots activism and a tool for spreading misinformation that deepens societal divisions. This research uses a qualitative approach with literature analysis to explore the relationship between identity politics and polarization in contemporary Muslim countries, focusing on elections, social media, and global dynamics. The findings highlight the urgent need for effective strategies to reduce polarization and promote inclusive governance. Often fueled by identity-based divisions and amplified by social media, polarisation poses serious threats to political and social stability. In today's interconnected world, these divisions extend beyond local and national politics, influencing international relations and regional security. Addressing these challenges requires a comprehensive approach that fosters open dialogue, strengthens democratic institutions, counters misinformation, and raises public awareness to bridge societal gaps. Inclusive governance also demands policies that engage marginalized groups, ensuring fair representation and addressing the root causes of polarization. By adopting these measures, Muslim-majority countries can work toward more excellent political stability and social cohesion.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of Muslim countries in global geopolitics and how they navigate challenges while capitalizing on opportunities amid the international political dynamics in the era of globalization. As the world order undergoes significant shifts, Muslim countries face complex issues such as geopolitical tensions, regional conflicts, major power interventions, and changing strategic alliances. However, they also have opportunities to strengthen their diplomatic and economic positions through international collaboration, investment, and active roles in multilateral organizations. Using a qualitative analysis approach, this research examines foreign policy, diplomatic strategies, and international relations dynamics of Muslim countries, including their role in organizations like the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) and their relations with major powers like the United States, China, and Russia. The study employs a qualitative analysis approach with a literature review method. Data is sourced from secondary materials such as academic journals, books, policy reports, and articles relevant to the geopolitical issues of Muslim countries. This approach enables the researcher to analyze various foreign policies, diplomatic strategies, and dynamics in international relations. The data is then analyzed using a descriptive-analytical approach to explore the role of Muslim countries in global geopolitics and how they tackle challenges while leveraging opportunities in the era of globalization. The findings indicate that despite significant challenges, Muslim countries possess the potential to act as critical players in global geopolitics if they can optimize available opportunities, such as enhancing economic cooperation and diplomacy based on shared interests.

Abstract

This study examines the transformation of public trust in implementing restorative justice by the prosecutor's office in Indonesia, particularly in a contemporary era that demands a more inclusive and responsive legal approach. Using a qualitative approach, this research combines insights from Islamic law and social studies to examine the factors influencing public trust in restorative justice and the prosecutor's role in resolving conflicts and promoting social harmony. The study gathers insights through in-depth interviews with legal academics, prosecutorial practitioners, and community representatives, aiming to understand their perceptions of the effectiveness and fairness of the restorative justice process. From the Islamic law perspective, the study highlights a normative framework rooted in values of justice, consultation (shura), and restoration (islah), which closely align with the core principles of restorative justice. Social studies provide additional depth by exploring the influence of individual experiences, legal awareness, and public perceptions of the prosecutor's office on trust dynamics. The findings indicate a gradual increase in public trust in restorative justice within Indonesia, reflecting growing acceptance of its potential as an alternative to conventional punitive measures. However, significant challenges persist, particularly regarding transparency and consistency in its implementation by the prosecutor's office. Studies on similar cases worldwide reveal that transparent processes and accountability are essential for maintaining public confidence, underscoring the importance of addressing these gaps in Indonesia. By positioning restorative justice as a culturally resonant and equitable alternative within Indonesia's legal framework, the study provides actionable insights for policymakers and practitioners striving to create a justice system that aligns with societal needs and ethical values.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the reformulation of progressive fiqh of Talak (divorce), with a focus on SEMA No. 1 of 2022, which emphasizes the principle of making divorce more difficult in the interest of protecting women. In the context of Islamic law, divorce has often been considered a unilateral right controlled by the husband, potentially neglecting the rights of women. SEMA No. 1 of 2022 was introduced as a response to this issue, offering a fairer and more just approach for all parties involved. This research employs a library research method, reviewing legal literature, official documents, as well as the views of legal scholars and practitioners regarding the implementation of this policy. The analysis results show that the reformulation of the fiqh of divorce in SEMA No. 1 of 2022 provides a better platform for protecting women's rights in divorce proceedings, including encouragement for mediation and peaceful dispute resolution. Furthermore, this study identifies challenges in the application of this principle on the ground, including cultural and social resistance. This research is expected to contribute to the development of family law in Indonesia that is more responsive to the needs of women, as well as to raise awareness of the importance of justice for all parties in the context of divorce. This study serves as an important reference for further research on fiqh of divorce and women's protection policies within the framework of contemporary Islamic law.

Abstract

This study examines the controversy surrounding gender equality in women's political rights in the public sphere. This discussion arises from differing interpretations of existing texts, which have persisted from the classical era to the contemporary period. This study employs normative legal research, utilizing library materials and secondary data as primary sources. It involves reviewing literature, including articles, books, and other relevant resources. The collected data, comprising primary and secondary legal materials, is analyzed qualitatively and presented descriptively. The study finds that Islam upholds gender equality by placing women in a noble and honorable position and affirming their rights and roles as stated in the words of Allah. Among classical Islamic scholars, there is debate about whether women are permitted to hold leadership roles. Imam Malik, Imam Shafi'i, and Ahmad Ibn Hanbal prohibited it, while Imam Abu Hanifah allowed women to lead if they possessed adequate capability and competence. Scholars like Ibn Jarir Al-Tabari and Ibn Hazm also allowed women to assume leadership positions without any conditions. Contemporary scholars, including Ibn Ashur, Yusuf al-Qaradawi, and Quraish Shihab, support women's participation in politics, both in voting and being elected. Yusuf al-Qaradawi, however, set conditions, emphasizing that women must adhere to Islamic ethics, fulfill their duties as wives and mothers, and not violate Sharia principles. If the exercise of women's political rights leads to harm, it is prohibited based on the principle of sadd al-zari'ah. This study contributes to the understanding of Islamic perspectives on gender equality in politics, examining viewpoints from both classical and contemporary scholars. It also provides a discourse on the conditions required for women to exercise their political rights within the framework of Islamic law.

Abstract

This study explores the legal politics of halal tourism in Thailand by highlighting the impact of digital advertising interventions on consumer intent, recommendations, and engagement. Thailand, as a leading global tourist destination, is increasingly expanding its halal tourism sector but faces challenges in aligning the needs of Muslim travelers with effective digital promotion strategies. This research analyzes how digital advertising can influence consumer perceptions and decisions, especially in the contemporary era of globalization and digital transformation. With a qualitative approach, this study uses data from literature studies, interviews with tourism industry players, and analysis of Thai government policies related to halal tourism. The findings show that the right digital advertising interventions can increase Muslim tourists' intention to visit, encourage positive recommendations, and strengthen consumer engagement. In addition, legal policies supporting halal tourism promotion are essential in creating competitive attraction in the global market. The results of this study contribute to the understanding of the political law of halal tourism in Thailand, as well as offer strategic recommendations for the government and industry players to utilize digital advertising in supporting the growth of this sector. The implications of this research are also relevant in building a sustainable halal tourism ecosystem amid the dynamics of the contemporary era.
