Data collection by interviews and documentation. The data was then tested for data validity using theoretical triangulation and qualitative descriptive analysis. The research results show that the profit sharing of mudarabah financing at KSPPS Tamzis Bina Utama is in accordance with the theory of profit sharing of mudarabah financing because there are no elements of gharar, maisir, compulsion and disadvantage from either party. This financing is in the nature of a loan so that when members do not make a profit, they are only obliged to repay the loan at the beginning of the contract without any additional profit sharing. Meanwhile, the determination of profit-sharing provisions at the beginning of the contract is permitted by Imam Syafi'i based on sales or money that has been generated from mudarabah financing and KSPPS Tamzis Bina Utama uses a minimum investment return system to determine the profit sharing. This system which is run by KSPPS Tamzis Bina Utama is a form of ijtihad which is used as a reference for the profits that will be obtained, not as a certainty in the profits that will be obtained, and still be negotiated if the mudarib has not met the profits determined by the investment return requirements minimum. So, it can be concluded that the system of minimum investment returns on mudarabah financing loans applied at KSPPS Tamzis Bina Utama according to contemporary muamalah fiqh is legally valid because of the principle of mutual consent, permissibility, and the absence of gharar elements that are uncertain in the transaction
THE OWNERSHIP OF COPYRIGHTED WORK: A MALAYSIAN LEGAL PERSPECTIVE
Full text linkA copyrighted work is a creation by an author, such as a literary, musical, or film work, that falls under section 7(1) of the Copyright Act 1987. The matter of ownership pertaining to copyrighted works that form part of an individual's property is extensively debated during their lifetime. However, the matter regarding the issue of ownership concerning copyrighted works after the owner's demise is hardly addressed. There is a misconception among the public that every copyrighted work automatically enters the public domain or becomes public property after the death of its owner. This article discussed the law regarding the eligibility of works to the copyright protection and the ownership which is applied during the lifetime of the author. This article aims to address the legal position of the copyrighted works ownership during the lifetime and after the death of the owner. The discussion adopts the qualitative doctrinal legal research method and uses content analysis method to analyse the data. This article concludes that the ownership of the copyrighted works owned by the original owner during his lifetime can be transferred to the legal heirs who can enjoy the rights associated with the copyright for a term of fifty years after the death of the owner. However, the principle under Copyright Act 1987 must be read together with the laws relating to the succession of deceased estates. This paper also suggests that it is high time for the relevant authorities to review the current duration of copyright protection by taking into account the life plus seventy years’ duration as applied in other countries such as Singapore and Australia for the benefit of the legal heirs

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP AND ORGANIZATIONAL CITIZENSHIP BEHAVIOR AMONG LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS IN MALAYSIA
Full text linkThis study aimed to investigate the correlation between transformational leadership and follower organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) within law enforcement agencies. Using a quantitative approach, transformational leadership traits were assessed based on leader perceptions. The modified Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ) 5x Short was used to measure four dimensions of transformational leadership: Idealized Influence, Inspirational Motivation, Intellectual Stimulation, and Individualized Consideration. Additionally, a modified OCB scale was used to evaluate the relationship between these leadership traits and followers' organizational citizenship behaviors, specifically Altruism, Sportsmanship, and Courtesy. The literature review examined the core characteristics of transformational leadership, the dimensions of OCB, and the nuances of the leader-follower dynamic. The findings suggest that transformational leadership positively influences follower OCB, with standardized regression weights ranging from 0.72 to 0.85, indicating strong effects. Despite some model fit indices, such as GFI and AGFI, falling slightly below the ideal threshold, the study provides valuable insights into how transformational leadership significantly shapes follower behaviors in a law enforcement context. Further refinement of the model may enhance the overall fit and deepen understanding of these relationships
