Abstract

In this research, not all Muslim communities in DKI Jakarta can be classified as muzaki (an individual who pays zakat, a mandatory charitable contribution in Islam, to those who are eligible to receive it), as they have not met the minimum asset threshold established. However, this does not diminish the interest of the Muslim community in DKI Jakarta in paying zakat. The research involved 160 respondents from the Muslim community in DKI Jakarta, utilizing purposive sampling for data collection. The results indicate that only the digital payment variable does not significantly affect the interest of the Muslim community in paying professional zakat. In contrast, the variables of income, altruism, environment, attitude, norms, and behavior all have a significant positive impact on the interest of the Muslim community in paying professional zakat.

Abstract

This study assesses the financial feasibility and social impact of a community-based health initiative by the XYZ Indonesia Foundation, which provides free HIV testing to key populations. Using evaluative analysis and descriptive quantitative methods, the research applies financial indicators such as Payback Period (PP), Accounting Rate of Return (ARR), Net Present Value (NPV), Internal Rate of Return (IRR), and Profitability Index (PI). Results show a PP of 4.28 years, an ARR of 14.01 percent, a negative NPV of Rp 246,530,081, an IRR of 7.26 percent, and a PI of 0.885, indicating the project is not financially viable. Despite this, the initiative delivers significant social benefits, including improved access to health services for vulnerable groups, reduced HIV-related stigma, and greater community engagement. Although the project does not achieve commercial viability, its social value supports continued investment through social funding, public-private partnerships, and enhanced program governance.

Abstract

The rapid advancement of digital technology in healthcare has transformed the way nursing students access information, communicate, and practice clinically. While digitalization offers numerous benefits, it also introduces ethical challenges related to confidentiality, professionalism, and online conduct. This study explores the role of ethical education in helping nursing students prevent ethical code violations in the digital era. A qualitative descriptive approach was used, with data collected from 15 nursing students through semi-structured interviews and document analysis. The findings indicate that ethical education enhances students' ethical reasoning, digital responsibility, and awareness of legal implications. Participants reported that ethical education enabled them to critically reflect on their actions, particularly in online environments where ethical boundaries are often ambiguous. The study emphasizes the importance of integrating ethical values continuously throughout the nursing curriculum, rather than treating it as a standalone course. Key factors such as institutional support, curriculum relevance, and educator role modeling were identified as essential in promoting ethical behavior. The results underscore the need for enhanced ethical education in nursing programs to ensure that graduates are not only clinically proficient but also ethically responsible in their digital and professional interactions.

Abstract

Living away from home during university years presents both opportunities and emotional challenges for students. This study aims to explore the mental health experiences of students who reside far from their families while pursuing higher education. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through semi-structured interviews with 15 students aged 18-22 years, purposively selected from various faculties. Thematic analysis revealed several recurring issues, including homesickness, social isolation, academic pressure, and limited access to mental health services. Many participants reported difficulties in adapting to independent living, especially when emotional support from family was unavailable. Students also expressed hesitation in utilizing available university counseling services due to stigma and lack of information. However, those who maintained regular communication with their families or developed peer support networks exhibited better emotional resilience. These findings suggest that emotional well-being is strongly connected to social relationships, living environment, and institutional support systems. The study recommends that universities implement proactive strategies such as emotional wellness workshops, inclusive peer networks, and improved promotion of mental health services. Strengthening mental health support is essential for enhancing both academic performance and the overall quality of life for students living away from home.

Abstract

This study investigates the role of transformational leadership and organizational culture as key determinants of sustainable performance within organizations from a strategic management perspective. By integrating transformational leadership practices such as inspirational motivation, intellectual stimulation, and individualized consideration with strong organizational culture, organizations can enhance operational efficiency, innovation, and long-term performance outcomes. The study highlights how the alignment of leadership style and cultural values fosters employee engagement, adaptive decision-making, and the effective implementation of strategic objectives. While these factors can drive sustainable performance, challenges may arise, including cultural resistance, misalignment between leadership and organizational values, and insufficient mechanisms to measure long-term outcomes. A strategic, phased approach emphasizing the development of leadership competencies, reinforcement of supportive cultural practices, and the use of integrated performance metrics can overcome these barriers and promote continuous improvement. Ultimately, transformational leadership combined with a robust organizational culture contributes not only to enhanced efficiency and performance but also to sustainable growth, competitive advantage, and a culture of excellence.

Abstract

This study explores how financial literacy and financial inclusion influence economic decision-making in the digital era. By examining the integration of digital financial tools, online banking services, and mobile financial applications, individuals can make more informed, efficient, and strategic economic choices. Financial literacy equips individuals with the knowledge and skills to understand, evaluate, and manage financial products. In contrast, financial inclusion ensures equitable access to formal financial services, reducing vulnerability to economic risks. The study also highlights how digital platforms amplify both opportunities and challenges, including information overload, digital inequality, and cybersecurity risks. Implementing strategies to improve financial literacy and expand financial inclusion through education, policy support, and user-friendly digital solutions can foster responsible financial behavior, promote sustainable economic participation, and enhance personal and societal financial well-being. Ultimately, aligning financial knowledge, inclusive access, and digital capabilities transforms economic behavior, enabling individuals to make data-driven decisions that support long-term financial stability and growth.

Abstract

The crime of corruption is an extraordinary crime that has a broad impact on the morality of the nation, social justice, and the sustainability of national development. In the Islamic perspective, corruption is not only seen as a violation of positive law, but also as an act of great sin that contains elements of betrayal of trust and creates social damage (fasad fil-ardh). Therefore, handling corruption is not sufficient through legal instruments alone, but also requires a moral and spiritual approach based on the values of the Qur'an and hadith. This article aims to examine the implementation of corruption crimes in the perspective of tafsir and hadith by examining Qur'anic verses related to the concepts of ghulul (betrayal), risywah (bribery), sariqah (theft), and hirabah (robbery), as well as traditions that condemn similar behavior. This study uses a normative qualitative approach with thematic interpretation (mauḍu'i) and hadith analysis methods to find Islamic universal values in the prevention and eradication of corruption. The results of the study show that the implementation of the crime of corruption in the perspective of tafsir and hadith is a moral and spiritual deviation that is contrary to Islamic teachings. The Qur'an describes corruption through the terms ghulul (embezzlement), risywah (bribery), which will cause fasad fil-ardh (damage), all of which indicate the unauthorized deprivation of other people's rights. QS. Al-Baqarah: 188 prohibits consuming wealth through unlawful means, while the Hadith narrated by Bukhari No. 3196 emphasizes severe punishment for the perpetrators. Corruption is a grave sin that violates the principles of trust and justice, so its eradication must be through strict law enforcement and moral guidance based on the values of the Qur'an and hadith.

Abstract

Underage marriage is still a concerning phenomenon in Indonesia despite the regulation of Law No. 16 of 2019 which sets a minimum age limit of 19 years. This study aims to analyze the law of underage marriage in the perspective of maqashid sharia and formulate a reconstruction of a more contextual understanding of contemporary Islamic law. The research uses a juridical-normative method with an analytical qualitative-descriptive approach. Primary data sources include the Qur'an, Hadith, classical and contemporary fiqh books, and laws and regulations. The data analysis technique uses the ushul fiqh approach with the maqashid sharia theoretical framework of Imam Ash-Syatibi. The results show that underage marriage is contrary to the fundamental principles of maqashid sharia, specifically: (1) hifdzun nafs because it threatens the physical and mental health of children; (2) hifdzun 'aql because it inhibits the right to education and cognitive development; (3) hifdzun nasl because it increases the risk of mother-child mortality and stunting; and (4) it fails to realize the purpose of marriage, namely sakinah, mawaddah, warahmah. This study concludes that although there is no explicit prohibition in the text, early marriage must be prevented because its madarat is greater than its maslahat. The reconstruction of contemporary Islamic legal understanding must be based on a contextual approach that integrates maqashid sharia with the findings of modern science to realize the true benefit for children.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze and compare the performance of the Indonesia Sharia Stock Index (ISSI) and the Composite Stock Price Index (IHSG) in responding to economic volatility during the 2020–2025 period. This timeframe represents a phase of heightened economic uncertainty triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic, rising global inflation, monetary policy tightening, and international geopolitical instability, all of which exerted substantial pressure on Indonesia’s capital market. In this context, understanding the comparative characteristics and resilience of sharia and conventional stock indices is essential for both academic development and sustainable investment decision-making. This research adopts a qualitative approach using a literature review method. Data were collected through a systematic examination of reputable national and international academic journals, as well as official reports published by the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) and the Financial Services Authority (OJK). The analysis employs a descriptive-comparative framework by synthesizing empirical findings and theoretical perspectives related to stock index performance, market volatility, and the fundamental characteristics of sharia and conventional investments. The findings indicate that both ISSI and IHSG experienced significant fluctuations throughout the observation period, particularly during the early stage of the COVID-19 crisis. However, ISSI tended to exhibit relatively lower volatility compared to IHSG during periods of extreme economic pressure. This condition is associated with the sharia screening mechanism, which restricts interest-based leverage and speculative activities, resulting in a more defensive risk profile. Conversely, IHSG demonstrates greater sensitivity to macroeconomic changes and global investor sentiment, offering higher return potential under stable market conditions but accompanied by higher risk levels. The study concludes that ISSI shows stronger relative resilience during periods of high economic volatility, while IHSG performs more optimally in normal or expansionary market phases.
