Meanwhile, North Sumatra, Papua, East Java, South Sumatra, and East Nusa Tenggara are the five provinces with the lowest IHDI. The regression analysis results show that the IHDI in Indonesia is positively influenced by domestic investment and government expenditure, while foreign direct investment does not affect the IHDI in Indonesia
The Phenomenon of Pregnant Muslim Marriages in Lintau Buo Utara, Tanah Datar, West Sumatra
Full text linkA marriage where the woman is pregnant due to adultery is considered uncommon and taboo in Muslim society. The pregnancy is always kept secret by the prospective married couple and their families. The pregnant Muslim women marriage rate in Lintau Buo Utara is quite high. This study focuses on the case of pregnant women's marriages, specifically how the Office of Religious Affairs (KUA) officers may learn about the prospective bride's pregnancy and the family's actions after the prospective bride gives birth. The research was carried out in the form of a field study using the socio-legal research method with interviews conducted with relevant parties in this case. The results concluded that the majority of pregnant marriages at KUA Lintau Buo Utara were predominantly experienced by young couples at elementary and junior high education levels. KUA officials could discover about the future bride's pregnancy by observing the attitude of the prospective partner or their families during the registration process, the answers of the partner throughout the interview session, and the results of the examination done by the Public Health Center staff. The family's stance towards the pregnant woman's marriage is that the couple will hold a remarriage after the bride gives birth. The new findings in this study are related to the way KUA officers reveal the state of the prospective bride's pregnancy, which was originally kept secret. This is very important to be applicable to KUA officers in other areas
Epistemology of Interdisciplinary Research at Islamic Study on State Islamic Religious Higher Education in Indonesia

Third, the results of these interdisciplinary Islamic studies can develop, enrich and produce the intellectual treasures of Islamic studies at State Islamic Religious Higher Education in Indonesia (PTKIN

Empirical Model of Poverty Alleviation in Islamic Economic Perspective: Evidence from Indonesia
Full text linkThis study aims to examine the model of poverty alleviation by analyzing several aspects that in Islamic economics are considered to have an effect on poverty alleviation. Using a sample of provinces in Indonesia, this study applies to panel data analysis. The novelty of this research is using more variables, including some aspects rarely discussed in previous empirical models. The results of this study indicate a significant negative effect of mandatory and charity transfer variables on the poverty level. Although using different proxies, the results of this study are in line with and confirm previous theories and empirical research regarding the effect of zakat on poverty alleviation. In addition, the variable of increasing income was also found to have a significant effect on poverty alleviation. This provides an overview for the government to be able to optimize the role of zakat and increase income to reduce poverty, for example, by integrating the distribution of ziswaf through the provision of working capital more broadly and integrated towards economic improvement and growth so that it will bring a greater multiplier effect. In addition, the results of this study also provide recommendations for researchers to complement the limitations of this study. The limitation of this study is the lack of proxies in describing aspects that become variables of poverty alleviation in Islam as a whole. Whereas in Islam, poverty and its alleviation are multidimensional things and are not limited to material aspects but also spiritual

This is because UNIDA Gontor applies ihktiar al-diniyyah and al-ilmiyyah at the same time preventing the spread of Covid-19 infection. The two pledges were integrated within the framework of an Islamic worldview, thus, giving rise to three forms of strategic policies, namely; First, form a Covid-19 task force; second, involve elements of the government and IKPM Gontor; and the third, self-isolation. By consistently implementing these efforts, the entire academic community and students in the UNIDA Gontor environment can avoid and function normally even in the midst of the Covid-19 virus infectio
