The Nexus between The Islamic Human Development Index (I-HDI), Unemployment, and Population Growth in Influencing Poverty
This research investigates the relationship between the Islamic Human Development Index (I-HDI), Unemployment, Population Growth, and their impact on Poverty in G20 countries from 2010 to 2021. A purposive sampling method was used to select eight countries: the United States, Indonesia, the United Kingdom, Italy, Germany, Canada, France, and Turkey. The I-HDI was calculated using five Maqasid Shariah indicators. Unemployment was measured by the national unemployment rate, and Population Growth was represented by the annual population growth rate. A total of 384 panel data points were analyzed using the Fixed Effect Model (FEM) regression technique. The findings reveal a robust negative relationship between I-HDI and the Poverty Rate, indicating that improvements in human development are key drivers in alleviating poverty. In contrast, Unemployment shows a significant positive association with the Poverty Rate, meaning that an increase in unemployment leads to a rise in poverty levels. However, Population Growth does not exhibit a significant effect on the Poverty Rate, suggesting that demographic changes alone are not adequate to explain fluctuations in poverty across the G20 countries. These results offer valuable insights for policymakers focused on enhancing human development and addressing unemployment to effectively combat poverty
Management of Madrasah Teacher Empowerment in Analyzing HOTS-Based Test Items in the Semarang City Area
This study aims to analyze the management of empowerment of madrasa teachers in conducting item analysis based on Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) in the Semarang City area. Using the Participatory Action Research approach, 15 Madrasah Ibtidaiyah teachers were actively involved. The results of the study showed that the training provided was effective in reducing the gap in teachers' understanding of item analysis, reflected in the increased ability to compile question grids. In addition, there was an increase in teacher commitment to mastering item analysis, which was demonstrated through the skill of assembling questions independently. Skills in compiling multiple-choice questions based on HOTS also increased, evidenced by the systematic ability to create distractor answer sheets. These findings recommend the importance of a national certification program in HOTS-based question analysis by the Ministry of Religion in order to improve the competence of madrasa teachers. Structured empowerment management is expected to support the improvement of the quality of madrasah education and prepare students to think critically and analytically
Empowerment Based on Social Solidarity in the Management System of Sharia Homestay by the Muslim Community in Dieng Kulon Village
The tourism sector is one of the shortcuts to stimulate the economic development of a community. However, the significant growth potential is also accompanied by various risks, including negative impacts on social, cultural, and even economic aspects. This prompted the community in Dieng Kulon village to adopt a different approach in response to the rapid tourism development in the Dieng Plateau. Using a qualitative research method with a phenomenological approach, this article aims to explore how social solidarity-based empowerment of the Muslim community is implemented in the management system of Sharia homestay in Dieng Kulon village. The findings of this study indicate that social solidarity-based empowerment in the management system of Sharia homestay can be successful because the community possesses social capital in the form of land assets, as well as social solidarity in the form of trust, mutual assistance, and mutually beneficial cooperation. Furthermore, the social solidarity is derived from two factors: genetic, as most of the Dieng Kulon community is still bound by kinship ties (family); and even if not through kinship, there is a sense of shared identity as natives of Dieng Kulon. These factors bind the community of Sharia homestay entrepreneurs in Dieng Kulon to remain committed to achieving shared welfare while upholding Islamic values, norms, and teachings
Community Economic Empowerment Training Based on Mosques through Productive Zakat Management in Banyuputih Village, Batang Regency
Zakat management in mosques in Banyuputih is often still consumptive in nature and has not touched on aspects of sustainable economic empowerment. The purpose of this community service is to increase the capacity of mosque administrators in productive zakat management; provide entrepreneurship training to the community around the mosque and form a sustainable mosque-based economic empowerment model through collaboration between UPZ, the community, and universities. This training activity uses a participatory training approach through several training steps, namely: training, monitoring, and evaluation. Economic empowerment training based on the mosque through productive zakat management in Banyuputih Village has proven to have a significant impact on increasing the economic capacity of mustahik and strengthening the role of the mosque as a center for community empowerment. This model can be replicated in other mosques provided there is professional governance, continuous mentoring, and synergy between the mosque administrators, the community, and zakat institutions
Analysis of Teachers as Role Models in Strengthening the Character of Elementary School Students: Phenomenological Study at SDN Tegal Alur 08 Pagi
This study aims to describe and analyze the profile and process of teachers who act as models in strengthening students’ character, as well as to identify their weaknesses and strengths in performing this role. The research is relevant to current educational issues concerning the importance of character education and the need for teachers to serve as moral exemplars for students. This study employed a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach conducted at SDN Tegal Alur 08 Pagi, involving six teacher participants selected purposively. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and document analysis, and analyzed using NVivo software. Data validity was ensured through confirmability, credibility, transferability, and dependability. The findings indicate that teachers’ profiles as role models in character education are reflected in habituation programs, active learning, and continuous reflective approaches supported by professional competence and integrity. The process of character strengthening is carried out systematically and sustainably through multifaceted roles and techniques applied both inside and outside the classroom. Challenges experienced by teachers include limited facilities, family environmental influences, and emotional pressure in balancing academic and moral responsibilities. Meanwhile, teachers’ strengths lie in their consistency as role models, close relationships with students, the use of persuasive discipline, creative learning approaches, and the holistic integration of character values supported by the school’s vision and mission. From a phenomenological perspective, the study highlights how teachers interpret their experiences as moral models, viewing character education as a reciprocal process of learning and reflection rather than a one-way teaching effort
Bridging Theory and Practice Through Real-World Language Assessment Design
Language assessment is a crucial component of effective language teaching. However, many pre-service teachers lack sufficient training in assessment practices, resulting in a gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application. This study explores how pre-service teachers perceive the effectiveness of a project-based approach to designing and administering real-world language assessments and examines the challenges they face. Combining a closed questionnaire and semi-structured interviews, the study gathers quantitative and qualitative data from twenty-five pre-service teachers. The findings revealed that hands-on involvement in assessment design enhances teachers' understanding of key assessment principles, increases confidence, and bridges the gap between theory and practice. However, participants also faced challenges, particularly in ensuring the validity and reliability of their assessments. These challenges were manageable with the support provided in the course, indicating the value of structured guidance and expert collaboration in developing assessment literacy. The findings underscore the value of integrating theory with practice in teacher training, providing important insights for language assessment education. Future research could examine larger samples, long-term impacts of such training, and the role of digital tools in developing assessment literacy
Islamic Law Analysis of the Prosecutor's Authority in Asset Forfeiture from Corruption
Efforts to recover assets resulting from corruption remain hindered by legal loopholes and concealment strategies, especially when offenders register illicit assets under the names of third parties. This study explores how prosecutors perceive the legitimacy of such assets and their views on the necessity of reforming Indonesia’s asset forfeiture framework. Using a qualitative empirical design, the research is based on semi-structured interviews with four prosecutors who have handled corruption cases involving complex asset ownership. The findings reveal that prosecutors consistently view these assets as materially and morally illegitimate, even if formally registered under others' names. They also support introducing a non-conviction-based asset forfeiture (NCBAF) model to overcome the limitations of conviction-dependent mechanisms, especially in cases where suspects die or flee. Islamic legal principles, such as the ḥifẓ al-māl (preservation of wealth) and taʿzīr bi al-māl or discretionary penalties targeting unlawfully acquired assets, offer a moral and doctrinal basis for such reforms. These insights contribute to ongoing legal debates and support the development of a more effective and ethically grounded policy for asset recovery in corruption cases
Dynamic program for selecting syari’ah share for maximum profit
The right investment can increase a person's income by placing a number of funds in an investment instrument. One of the investment instruments is investing in the capital market by buying a number of stocks with good fundamentals. The selection of syari’ah shares is the right choice for the Indonesian people, most of whom are Muslim. The method used to select Islamic stocks in this study is dynamic programming. Simulations carried out with dynamic program algorithms produce selected syari’ah stocks, namely ACES, ICBP, SMGR and ANTM in order to get the maximum profit. Among the five shares, the one that provided the greatest return was ANTAM shares. This was proven in 2025 when ANTAM's share price rose by 22% even though the Indonesian economy was sluggish. ANTAM shares are given priority as shares that an investor must own
REKONSTRUKSI EPISTEMOLOGI ISLAM: INTEGRASI BAYANI, IRFANI, DAN BURHANI UNTUK RESILIENSI PENGETAHUAN DI ERA DIGITAL
Epistemologi sebagai fondasi filsafat yang menyelidiki esensi pengetahuan, memainkan peran vital dalam membentuk pemikiran manusia. Dalam konteks Islam, epistemologi tidak hanya sekadar analisis rasional, melainkan sintesis harmonis antara wahyu ilahi, akal budi, dan pengalaman spiritual. Artikel ini mengeksplorasi sumber-sumber pengetahuan utama seperti rasionalisme, empirisme, wahyu, dan otoritas; serta kriteria kebenaran yang meliputi korespondensi, koherensi, dan pragmatisme. Lebih lanjut, dibahas tiga corak pengetahuan Islam klasik yaitu bayani, irfani, dan burhani. Al-Quran dan Sunnah Nabi Muhammad SAW ditekankan sebagai pondasi utama, yang tidak hanya memberikan petunjuk moral tetapi juga mendorong inovasi ilmiah di era digital. Kajian ini menerapkan metode kualitatif melalui riset pustaka (library research), menggunakan inferensi konten, interpretasi hermeneutik, dan sintesis komparatif terhadap sumber primer (kitab klasik Islam) dan sekunder (jurnal serta buku modern). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa epistemologi Islam bersifat komprehensif dan integratif, di mana wahyu menjadi kriteria utama yang melengkapi akal dan intuisi; ketiga corak pengetahuan saling melengkapi dalam hierarki holistik; serta kerangka ini relevan untuk mengatasi tantangan kontemporer seperti misinformasi digital dan krisis identitas pengetahuan. Analisis ini bertujuan untuk membangun pemahaman holistik yang menggabungkan tradisi Islam dengan dinamika modern, dengan harapan memperkaya diskursus akademik khususnya di bidang filsafat Islam. Untuk memperjelas fokus kajian ini, artikel secara eksplisit menempatkan kesenjangan riset pada minimnya model konseptual yang menghubungkan pola-pola epistemologis klasik (bayani, irfani, burhani) dengan mekanisme verifikasi pengetahuan di platform digital kontemporer. Secara metodologis, penelitian ini mengandalkan pendekatan kualitatif riset pustaka dengan unit analisis berupa teks klasik (pilihan bagian dari Ihyaʼ Ulumuddin, karya-karya Al-Jabiri, Ibnu Sīnā, dan Ibnu Rusyd) serta artikel akademik kontemporer tentang epistemologi Islam dan studi media digital; analisis dilakukan melalui tahapan kategorisasi tema, koding tematik, dan sintesis argumentatif untuk membangun proposisi teoretis. Kontribusi kebaruan artikel ini terletak pada perumusan proposisi integratif yang mengaitkan fungsi normative wahyu (bayani), pembuktian rasional (burhani), dan ketanggapan spiritual (irfani) dengan strategi verifikasi dan resiliensi epistemik di era misinformasi, sebuah sumbangan konseptual bagi diskursus filsafat Islam dan aplikasi pendidikan agama di ranah digital
Identity Imperialism and Nation Building: Governance, Corruption, and Separatism in Nigeria
This paper studies how Nigeria’s national unity, governance, and socioeconomic growth have been structurally weakened by the externally imposed identity that was a legacy of British colonialism. It also examines how this has fuelled ethnic polarisation, corruption, and separatist movements. Based on the Centre-Periphery and Psycho-Cultural Conflict theories, the study uses qualitative content analysis of secondary data to explain how imposed colonial identity impedes genuine nation-building and good governance. By methodically connecting identity imperialism to deficiencies in governance and development issues, this study closes a significant gap. The way that legal frameworks sustain identity fragmentation is further demonstrated by an analysis of the 1999 constitutional of Nigeria. The study concluded with evidence-based recommendations that highlight constitutional changes that promote fiscal federalism and inclusive national discourse as necessary conditions for long-term national development and cohesion
