Abstract

This study investigates Islamic jurisprudence principles concerning workers’ protection regarding wage determination and payment in Indonesia. Employing a juridical-normative approach, the research analyzes labor regulations, Islamic jurisprudential rules, and the concept of labor law. Data were collected through legal document analysis, Islamic literature review, and comparative studies and were analyzed qualitatively using descriptive-analytical methods. The findings indicate that Islamic jurisprudence principles, prioritizing justice, equality, and workers’ welfare, have been incorporated into Indonesian labor law through Law Number 13 of 2003 on Manpower and Government Regulation Number 51 of 2023 on Wages. Islam regards workers as equals to employers and prohibits the imposition of excessive workloads, delays in wage payments, and unjust treatment of workers. Similarly, Indonesian legislation prohibits employers from delaying wages and ensures workers receive fair compensation. The study underscores the significance of integrating Islamic principles with positive law to establish a more humane and equitable wage system that safeguards workers’ rights and promotes their welfare in Indonesia, particularly within the context of Subang Regency as an industrial area. This research contributes to a comprehensive understanding of legal protection for workers within the wage system by synthesizing the principles of Indonesian positive law and Islamic jurisprudence.

Abstract

This research examines the complexity of the relationship between spiritual and economic aspects in the context of the pilgrimage of saints in Indonesia. Using qualitative and anthropological approaches, this research relies on secondary sources of relevant literature. The ’ziarah wali’ (saint pilgrimage), which has strong roots in traditional Muslim cultures, has undergone significant transformations along with economic and political developments in the modern era. This study analyzes how the veneration of holy men in many parts of Javanese culture transformed from religious ritual into social and economic activity manifested in popular tourism. The literature review includes various sources of literature data related to the study of the history of the pilgrimage of saints, socio-cultural changes, government policies related to religious tourism, and the economic impact on the community around the pilgrimage site. The main findings indicate an ongoing negotiation between spiritual values and economic interests in shaping the contemporary pilgrimage landscape in Indonesia. The analysis shows the complex dynamics between pilgrims’ spiritual motivations, local communities' economic interests, and government policies in developing the religious tourism sector. This research contributes to a more nuanced understanding of socioeconomic dynamics in spiritual practices and the implications for policies on cultural heritage preservation and religious tourism development in Indonesia.

Abstract

The rapid development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has brought significant transformation across various sectors but also presents complex and urgent ethical challenges. Key issues include algorithmic bias that may reinforce social discrimination, privacy violations due to massive data collection without adequate control, and unclear accountability in autonomous AI systems. These challenges threaten social justice, individual rights, and public trust in technology. This study aims to develop an AI ethics framework grounded in Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿa, the Islamic legal philosophy emphasizing the protection of five fundamental values: religion (ḥifẓ al-dīn), life (ḥifẓ al-nafs), intellect (ḥifẓ al-ʿaql), lineage (ḥifẓ al-nasl), and property (ḥifẓ al-māl). A qualitative literature review method employing content analysis and thematic synthesis was applied to examine relevant literature on AI ethics and Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿa, identifying gaps and opportunities for normative integration. The findings demonstrate that Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿa offers a holistic perspective complementing Western AI ethics frameworks by incorporating spiritual, moral, and social justice dimensions. The principle of ḥifẓ al-ʿaql underpins efforts to combat misinformation, while ḥifẓ al-māl guides the equitable development of Sharia-compliant fintech. This study recommends inclusive algorithm design, Sharia-based regulation, and multidisciplinary collaboration among religious scholars, technology developers, and regulators to ensure ethical, responsible, and sustainable AI development.

Abstract

This study investigates the dynamics of interactions among stakeholders in shaping MSME actors' business orientation in Gili Trawangan regarding acceptance and rejection of halal certification on food and beverage products. Using a qualitative approach and case study method, data were collected through participant observation over two months and in-depth interviews with 18 key informants, including MSME actors, government representatives, and tourists. The study explores how MSME actors' attitudes amid contestation between the government as an institutional stakeholder and tourists as primary stakeholders influence decisions to accept or reject halal certification. Findings show that the dominance of primary stakeholders, namely tourists, is the main factor shaping MSME business orientation, which tends to follow tourists' preferences in offering food and beverage products. Conversely, the government's function as an institutional stakeholder in promoting halal certification is less effective, leading MSMEs to resist certification and rely on traditional halal-based offerings and product diversification into non-halal items to attract various tourist segments. This research contributes significantly to understanding power relations and interests among stakeholders in MSME management within tourism and policy implications related to halal certification. Limitations include geographic scope, focus on certain MSME groups in Gili Trawangan, and reliance on data subjectively reported by informants. Future research should broaden the context and include diverse MSME groups in different regions to obtain a more comprehensive picture of stakeholder influence on business orientation.

Abstract

Community policing, a proactive crime prevention strategy, faces unique challenges in apartment-based urban environments like South Jakarta's Kalibata City Apartment complex. These communities are characterized by higher levels of individualism and lower social cohesion, making it difficult to establish effective community-police partnerships. The study, involving 360 randomly selected residents, found that the social fabric of apartment communities lacks the integration necessary for successful community-policing partnerships. The study also highlighted the socio-spatial characteristics of apartment complexes, such as high population density and vertical living arrangements, which significantly shape the feasibility and outcomes of community policing initiatives. This research contributes to the broader discourse on urban policing by identifying key gaps in existing practices and emphasizing the need for context-sensitive approaches.

Abstract

This study examines the pattern of religious identity resistance in the translation of Fiqhu al-Nisa’ from Arabic into Indonesian. Resistance in this context refers to the translator's strategy in maintaining religious terms without domestication or significant cultural adaptation, in order to maintain the integrity of meaning, sacred value, and Islamic identity in the translated text. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with a comparative approach between the source and target texts. Data in the form of religious terms were analyzed based on Al Ghamdi’s categories of religious identity, which include eschatology, moral and ethical criteria, religious artifacts, religious buildings, religious events, religious groups, religious figures or appeals, religious sites, special religious activities, supernatural beings, and enlightenment terms. The findings indicate that the strongest resistance emerges in the categories of specific religious activities and moral and ethical criteria. It is because terms within these categories are deeply rooted in Islamic epistemology and function as carriers of doctrinal authority. Such terms are difficult to substitute or domesticate without compromising their theological specificity and sacred function. Therefore, the translator consistently preserves these terms through transliteration or literal translation. This practice is not merely due to the absence of equivalent terms in Indonesian but rather represents a deliberate ideological choice to resist the secularization of religious language. These findings affirm that the translation of religious texts constitutes an ideological practice that plays a crucial role in maintaining Islamic identity and authority in the target text.

Abstract

This research examines the alignment between Restorative Justice concepts and constitutional principles embedded in Indonesia’s 1945 Constitution, analyzing its effectiveness in achieving substantive justice and social restoration. Employing normative legal research methodology with statute, conceptual, comparative, and case approaches, this study investigates how Restorative Justice can serve as an instrument for actualizing constitutional values within Indonesia's constitutional system. The research reveals profound philosophical harmonization between Restorative Justice principles and constitutional values, particularly regarding human rights protection (Article 28I), substantive justice (Article 28D), and the rule of law principle (Article 1(3)). The analysis demonstrates that Restorative Justice effectively achieves substantive justice through participatory processes that prioritize dialogue, accountability, and community involvement over punitive measures. Evidence from juvenile criminal justice implementation and comparative analysis with international practices indicates significant effectiveness in reducing recidivism rates and strengthening social cohesion. The study concludes that Restorative Justice constitutes a constitutional imperative rather than merely an alternative judicial mechanism, representing the actualization of substantive constitutionalism that aligns with Indonesia’s foundational Pancasila values. This research contributes to constitutional law scholarship by establishing a theoretical framework that integrates alternative justice mechanisms within constitutional governance, providing empirical evidence for constitutional-based Restorative Justice effectiveness, and offering methodological foundations for future research examining the intersection between constitutional values and innovative justice practices.

Abstract

Indonesia faces significant challenges in ensuring equitable health rights fulfillment despite having comprehensive health legislation, with persistent disparities in healthcare access across geographical and socioeconomic dimensions raising questions about the effectiveness of health rights implementation within the international human rights law framework. This research aims to analyze the implementation of health rights in Indonesia within the framework of international human rights law, evaluate the conformity of Indonesian health policies with international human rights standards, identify legal and policy factors contributing to healthcare access disparities, and assess the effectiveness of health regulation implementation in ensuring citizens’ health rights fulfillment. The study employs normative-empirical methods with a policy analysis approach. Research findings demonstrate that despite Indonesia’s comprehensive legal foundation from constitutional to technical, operational regulations, healthcare access disparities remain a complex structural challenge. The evaluation of AAAQ principles (Availability, Accessibility, Acceptability, and Quality) reveals significant geographical and socioeconomic inequality, particularly between urban-rural areas and western-eastern Indonesian regions. The effectiveness of health regulation implementation shows a paradox between firm normative commitments and diverse practical realities, with challenges including coordination complexity across government levels, limited healthcare human resources, and unequal health facility distribution. This research recommends human rights-based health policy reforms that integrate Pancasila values to create a more inclusive, equitable, and sustainable healthcare system that achieves health justice in Indonesia.

Abstract

This paper examines local culture and traditions as representations or means of accommodation for the socio-economic and cultural expectations of the Banjar community, particularly among women. Specifically, this paper explores how the Banjar community, especially Banjar women, build, grow, and transform knowledge through the reading of Siti Khadijah’s manaqib. The recitation of Siti Khadijah’s manaqib is a tradition among Banjar women, and it is performed on various occasions during specific religious rituals. In particular, the recitation of Siti Khadijah’s manaqib is also routinely carried out in religious institutions on the 11th day of each Hijri month. Banjar women in this study play an active role in socio-cultural transformation. An important finding in this study is that religious institutions, especially the ritual of reading Siti Khadijah’s manaqib, are a dynamic expression of Banjar women’s social and economic spirit. Through religious institutions, primarily through the ritual of reading Siti Khadijah’s manaqib, women play a role in dynamizing the economy and teaching worldly asceticism. Siti Khadijah’s reading of manaqib reflects how local communities foster and raise hopes for prosperity, ensuring the sustainability of life and society.
