Transformative Corporate Social Responsibility and the Circular Economy as a Community-Based Social Work Intervention: Evidence from the WIRALODRA Group in Indonesia
The integration of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and the Circular Economy (CE) has garnered increasing attention as a strategy to address environmental degradation, economic inequality, and social vulnerability in industrial areas. However, many CSR initiatives remain philanthropic in nature and have limited impact on long-term community empowerment. This study examines the implementation of the circular economy as a transformative CSR strategy to enhance community income and capacity, drawing on a case study of the WIRALODRA Group in Indramayu, Indonesia. A qualitative case study approach was employed, with data collected through in-depth interviews with key stakeholders, participant observation, and document analysis. The data were analyzed thematically to capture the dynamics of program implementation and its socio-economic implications. The findings reveal that circular economy practices—such as plastic waste recycling, organic waste processing through Black Soldier Fly (BSF) maggot cultivation, and waste-based product innovation—have facilitated a gradual shift from a linear to a circular waste management system. These practices have generated alternative income sources while strengthening technical skills, social capital, and collective agency among community members. Although income growth remains modest in the short term, the program has fostered social learning processes and enhanced livelihood resilience. This study demonstrates that circular economy–based CSR can function as a form of community-based social work intervention that promotes empowerment, sustainability, and inclusive development in Global South contexts.

Integrasi Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) dan Circular Economy (CE) semakin dipandang sebagai strategi penting dalam menjawab tantangan degradasi lingkungan, ketimpangan ekonomi, dan kerentanan sosial di wilayah sekitar kawasan industri. Namun, sebagian besar praktik CSR masih bersifat filantropis dan belum mampu mendorong pemberdayaan masyarakat secara berkelanjutan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji implementasi ekonomi sirkular sebagai strategi CSR transformatif dalam meningkatkan pendapatan dan kapasitas komunitas, dengan studi kasus Kelompok WIRALODRA di Indramayu. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan desain studi kasus. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara mendalam dengan pemangku kepentingan kunci, observasi partisipatif, dan analisis dokumen, kemudian dianalisis secara tematik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penerapan ekonomi sirkular melalui daur ulang sampah plastik, pengolahan sampah organik berbasis budidaya maggot Black Soldier Fly (BSF), serta inovasi produk berbasis limbah mendorong transformasi sistem pengelolaan sampah dari pola linear menuju sistem sirkular. Praktik ini tidak hanya menciptakan sumber pendapatan alternatif, tetapi juga memperkuat keterampilan teknis, modal sosial, dan agensi kolektif anggota kelompok. Meskipun peningkatan pendapatan belum signifikan dalam jangka pendek, program ini berhasil membangun proses pembelajaran sosial dan ketahanan mata pencaharian komunitas. Studi ini menegaskan bahwa CSR berbasis ekonomi sirkular dapat berfungsi sebagai bentuk intervensi pekerjaan sosial berbasis komunitas yang berorientasi pada pemberdayaan dan keberlanjutan.

INTEGRASI SHIFA AL-QUR'AN DAN HERBAL DALAM KONSELING PSIKOTERAPI TABIB HASAN DI BENGKULU
This study examines the practice of Tabib Hasan in Kaur Regency, Bengkulu, which integrates Shifa Al-Qur’an (the use of Quranic verses for healing) and herbal medicine in psychotherapy counseling. The background of this research is the limited access to mental health services in Indonesia, particularly in rural areas, and the need for a holistic approach. The research objectives include analyzing the profile of counseling problems, identifying the Quranic verses and herbs used, describing the integration process, evaluating the therapy outcomes, and developing a conceptual framework for Islamic psychotherapy counseling. A qualitative descriptive method with a case study and phenomenological approach was employed, involving in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation. The results show that Tabib Hasan primarily addresses physical complaints triggered by stress, using specific Quranic verses and various herbs. The therapy process includes holistic assessment and spiritual counseling sessions, with clients reporting improved sleep quality and calmness. Therapy success is measured by the client's awareness of their improved condition. This research presents an innovation through the holistic integration of Shifa Al-Qur’an and herbal medicine, and the development of a conceptual framework for Islamic psychotherapy counseling.

ENHANCING THE ROLE OF STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT IN ADVANCING THE SUSTAINABILITY OF ISLAMIC FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS
The increasing complexity of global economic competition and the rapid transformation of the financial industry present significant challenges to the sustainability of Islamic financial institutions. These challenges are further amplified by the necessity to align financial performance with ethical, social, and environmental responsibilities as mandated by the principles of maqasid al-shariah. Despite the growing discourse on sustainable finance, limited studies have integrated the domains of strategic management, sustainability, and Shariah compliance into a unified conceptual framework tailored to the specific context of Islamic financial institutions. This study aims to analyze and synthesize the role of strategic management in advancing sustainability within Islamic financial institutions, offering a comprehensive perspective that bridges theoretical insights and practical applications. The research adopts a literature review method, systematically examining and synthesizing relevant academic works, policy documents, and best practices from global and regional contexts. The findings indicate that embedding sustainability principles into the core of strategic management not only enhances institutional competitiveness and resilience but also strengthens public trust, expands financial inclusion, and ensures long-term socio-economic contributions. Furthermore, the study reveals that an integrated approach combining visionary strategic planning, adherence to maqasid al-shariah, and proactive adaptation to technological and regulatory changes serves as a robust foundation for sustainable growth. It is concluded that sustainability should be institutionalized as a strategic imperative, supported by clear performance indicators, capacity-building programs, and technology-driven innovations. The study recommends that Islamic financial institutions engage in constructive collaboration with regulators, industry associations, and stakeholders to foster an enabling ecosystem for inclusive and sustainable development. This conceptual synthesis not only contributes to the academic discourse but also provides actionable insights for policymakers and practitioners seeking to reinforce the long-term viability of Islamic financial institutions in the evolving global financial landscape

Leveraging Social Media for Da’wah and Waqf: Al-Bahjah’s MIZKA Program in Enhancing Community Engagement and Pesantren Development
Al-Bahjah Islamic Boarding School in Cirebon has intensified promotional efforts to boost community participation in charitable giving, including donations and almsgiving, to support its land endowment (waqf) program and pesantren development through the MIZKA initiative, increasingly utilizing social media as a primary medium. This shift reflects a transition from conventional to digital da’wah models. This study examines the mechanisms of this transition, employing a qualitative approach informed by Anthony Giddens’ structuration theory to analyze interactions between social media and da’wah activities. Findings reveal that pesantren administrators, recognizing technological advancements, leverage social media to sustain da’wah’s core identity. They disseminate Qur’anic verses, hadith, and scholarly opinions to foster followers’ awareness and encourage contributions. The effectiveness of this approach is maintained through transparent social media posts showcasing construction progress and funds raised, establishing a new model of accountability. This indicates that tech-savvy preachers reconstruct social media not only as a tool for outreach but also as a platform for managerial transparency and responsibility
The Role of WhatsApp Social Media in the Spreading of Community-Based Bil Tadwin Preaching: A Case Study of Ustadz Hanan Attaki's Preaching Channel
This study examines the role of WhatsApp as a community-based da'wah bil tadwin media, focusing on Ustadz Hanan Attaki's da'wah channel, which uses a one-way communication format. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of WhatsApp in spreading da'wah to a wide and diverse audience, while exploring how this approach allows full control over da'wah content. Using a qualitative method with a case study approach, data were obtained through observation of message content, interviews with community members, and analysis of literature related to digital da'wah. The study results indicate that WhatsApp's one-way format effectively maintains the consistency of da'wah messages, reduces the risk of information distortion, and maximizes control of narrative quality. Messages delivered through the bil tadwin format, such as inspirational quotes, study materials, and calls for goodness, were well received without direct interaction. This shows that the one-way approach on WhatsApp provides advantages in controlling the quality of da'wah messages, maintaining narrative consistency, and reducing the risk of information distortion. Messages delivered through the bil tadwin format, such as inspirational quotes, study materials, and calls for goodness, were well received by the audience, even without direct interaction. In addition, the private nature of WhatsApp helps create an exclusive and focused environment for the da'wah community, where the audience feels more connected to the religious message being conveyed
Viral Humanitarian Imagery: The Impact of #AllEyesonRafah on Global Social Media Dynamics
This study examines the impact of viral humanitarian imagery, focusing on the AI-generated image campaign with the hashtag #AllEyesonRafah on global social media dynamics. It explores how the imagery influences public awareness and encourages responses to humanitarian issues in Rafah, Palestine. The study aims to identify a pattern linking social media use to social mobilization driven by humanitarian imagery. Data were collected through analysis of digital content posted by public figures and humanitarian organizations, employing a qualitative approach informed by relevant communication theories. Primary sources included posts by public figures such as Bella Hadid, Ariana Grande, and Paramore, which significantly increased engagement. The analysis integrates three theories: Mark Granovetter’s Social Network Theory to examine the viral spread of AI-generated imagery on platforms like X, Instagram, and TikTok; Stuart Hall’s Representation Theory to analyze global public interpretations of these images; and Marshall McLuhan’s “Medium is the Message” Theory to assess how social media platforms and visual formats shape perception of the Rafah crisis. Findings indicate that viral humanitarian imagery not only raises awareness but also drives tangible global audiences. The study confirms social media’s role as an agent of social change, with its novelty lying in the detailed explanation of emotions in visual communication. The limitations of this study include the focus on one aspect of social media and the lack of longitudinal analysis, while suggestions for further research include a broader exploration of audience interactions and offline dimensions of similar phenomena
