KAFA'AH IN ISLAMIC MARRIAGE: CONCEPTUAL RECONSTRUCTION AND CRITICAL REVIEW OF CONTEMPORARY JURISPRUDENCE
Full text linkThis study aims to explore and reconstruct the concept of kafa'ah in Islamic marriage law, which has often been misunderstood as a form of rigid and discriminatory social stratification. In fact, in classical Islamic jurisprudence, kafa'ah is intended as a principle of benefit to maintain marital harmony through the compatibility of partners in religious, moral, and social aspects. Using a qualitative approach and literature study methods, this study examines the views of four Islamic schools of jurisprudence and the dynamics of understanding kafa'ah in the contemporary context. The results show that kafa'ah is not a requirement for valid marriage, but rather a relative and contextual principle. The narrowing of its meaning due to the dominance of local culture and textualist interpretations has obscured the substance of justice in Islam. Therefore, a reinterpretation of kafa'ah based on maqāṣid al-shari'ah is necessary to realize the principles of justice, gender equality, and benefit in modern marriage practices

Regional Economic Literature Analysis: The Effect of PPPK Civil Servant Status Changes to PNS on Local Economic Circulation in Jambi Province
Full text linkThis study aims to comprehensively examine the regional economic effects of the employment status change from Government Employees with Work Agreements (PPPK) to Civil Servants (PNS) in Jambi Province. Using a literature analysis approach, this research explores previous studies that discuss the relationship between civil service employment policies and regional economic dynamics. The main focus is directed toward the impact of increased income and job stability on money circulation, household consumption, savings, and the growth of the MSME sector. The synthesis results indicate that the transition from PPPK to PNS has the potential to create an economic multiplier effect through increased purchasing power, government employee spending, and local investment. On the other hand, fiscal policy and public expenditure planning become determining factors to ensure that these economic benefits remain sustainable. This article contributes theoretically to strengthening the model of regional economic analysis based on public employment policy and provides policy recommendations for optimizing apparatus-based regional developmen

THE CONCEPT OF FORGIVENESS IN THE QUR’AN: A QUR’ANIC APPROACH TO MENTAL HEALTH
Full text linkPurpose: This study examines the concept of forgiveness in the Qur’an by integrating semantic, normative, and psychosocial perspectives, with the aim of clarifying its role in character formation and mental well-being. Methodology: Using a qualitative library-based approach, the study analyzes Qur’anic verses, Prophetic hadith, and classical as well as contemporary exegesis through linguistic–semantic, comparative exegetical, and normative–ethical analysis. Findings: The Qur’an presents forgiveness as a hierarchical ethical system comprising al-‘afw (relinquishing retaliation), aṣ-ṣafḥ (inner magnanimity), and al-maghfirah (moral and social protection). Forgiveness is positioned as a higher moral choice beyond justice, contributing to tazkiyat al-nafs, emotional regulation, mental tranquility, and the formation of Qur’anic character. Research Implication: The findings provide an integrative ethical framework applicable to Islamic character education, conflict resolution, and mental health discourse. Originality: This study offers a holistic Qur’anic model of forgiveness by systematically integrating theological, ethical, and psychospiritual dimensions within a single analytical framework

IMPLEMENTATION OF THE ELABORATION LIKELIHOOD MODEL (ELM) IN THE POLITICAL COMMUNICATION STRATEGY OF THE JAYA-WIBAWA PAIR ON INSTAGRAM IN THE 2024 DENPASAR REGIONAL ELECTION
Full text linkThis study examines the political communication strategies of the Jaya-Wibawa couple to form their leadership image through the @jayawibawadenpasar Instagram account in the 2024 Denpasar Regional Elections, based on the Elaboration Likelihood Model (ELM) framework. The methodology used is qualitative descriptive, which is carried out by observing the content and responses from the comment column, completing digital documentation, literature studies, and conducting in-depth interviews with members of the Jaya-Wibawa couple's campaign team. The findings of this study indicate that this couple's communication approach is built on two main categories, namely incidental content and persuasive content, which complement each other to achieve engagement and appeal to young voters. The application of ELM theory can be seen in the merger of two persuasion paths. The central path emerges through data-driven content, explanations of programs, and policy arguments that encourage high elaboration, which is demonstrated by the audience's critical comments on the effectiveness of the program and the sustainability of public policy. Meanwhile, peripheral pathways are more visible through aesthetic visual elements, music, symbols of unity, and emotional touches that create a positive impression without deep analysis. The merger of these two channels of persuasion has succeeded in increasing the electability of candidate pairs. This study confirms that Instagram plays the role of an interactive and live-action political communication platform, which is able to strengthen the legitimacy of candidates and encourage the participation of young voters through a lightweight, visual, and accessible campaign approach

Diagnosing the Typology of the Human Psyche in the Qur’an: A Study of the Salim, Muqtashid, and Maridh Souls
Full text linkThis study aims to examine the typology of the human psyche in the Qur'an, focusing on three principal categories of the soul: salīm, muqtasid, and marīd. Employing a thematic approach to relevant Qur'anic verses, the research analyzes how the Qur'an portrays the inner states of the human soul and offers a conceptual foundation for understanding and addressing psychological challenges. The study is conducted through library research using a thematic exegesis (tafsīr) approach, complemented by an exploration of the views of both classical and contemporary scholars regarding the Qur'anic construction of human psychology. The findings reveal that the salīm soul is described as pure, free from polytheism, and firmly rooted in monotheism, representing the ideal state of spiritual wholeness. The muqtasid soul occupies a moderate position, symbolizing individuals who strive to balance purity and deviation a type particularly relevant in contemporary social contexts. Meanwhile, the marīd soul reflects a disturbed psychological condition caused by doubt, hypocrisy, or destructive desires, which the Qur'an addresses comprehensively through spiritual purification (tazkiyah al-nafs), the strengthening of faith, and psychospiritual therapy. This study highlights that the Qur'anic classification of the soul is not merely theoretical but also practical, offering both preventive and curative solutions to the moral and spiritual crises of modern society, and contributing to the advancement of Islamic psychology and character education.
Penelitian ini bertujuan menguraikan tipologi kejiwaan manusia dalam Al-Qur’an dengan menitikberatkan pada tiga kategori pokok jiwa, yaitu salīm, muqtasid, dan marīd. Dengan pendekatan tematik terhadap ayat-ayat terkait, kajian ini menelaah bagaimana Al-Qur’an memaparkan dinamika batin manusia dan menyediakan kerangka konseptual dalam memahami serta mengatasi persoalan psikologis. Penelitian dilaksanakan melalui studi kepustakaan dengan metode tafsir tematik (tafsīr maudhū‘ī), disertai telaah atas pandangan ulama klasik dan kontemporer mengenai konstruksi psikologi Qur’ani. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa jiwa salīm digambarkan sebagai jiwa yang suci, bersih dari syirik, dan teguh dalam ketauhidan, mencerminkan kondisi ideal kematangan spiritual. Jiwa muqtasid berada dalam posisi tengah, mewakili individu yang berusaha menyeimbangkan antara kesalehan dan penyimpangan, sehingga relevan untuk konteks sosial modern. Adapun jiwa marīd menunjukkan kondisi kejiwaan yang terganggu oleh keraguan, kemunafikan, atau dorongan negatif, yang ditangani Al-Qur’an secara menyeluruh melalui pemurnian jiwa (tazkiyah al-nafs), penguatan iman, serta pendekatan terapi psiko-spiritual. Kajian ini menegaskan bahwa klasifikasi jiwa dalam Al-Qur’an bersifat aplikatif sekaligus konseptual, memberikan solusi preventif dan kuratif atas krisis moral-spiritual masa kini, serta mendukung pengembangan psikologi Islam dan pendidikan karakter
