Therefore, it is important to maintain and advance moral education to prevent its extinction and replacement by something else.

Analysing Child Bullying Case from the Perspective of Media Political Economy and Islamic Communication in Ihya Ulum Al Din by Al Ghazali

The rise of child bullying cases has not escaped the media spotlight. News about cases found and their developments grab the attention of the public, especially bullying cases involving minors as perpetrators and victims. Children associated with cases that should have privacy and protection, in reality, become media and public consumption. Bullying cases no longer only focus on the case, but also the privacy of the perpetrators and victims. Responses from various communities have also been in the spotlight. Condemnation and blasphemy against the perpetrators then become their own form of bullying outside the case. One of the cases that caught the public's attention was the bullying case of Audrey, a junior high school student in Pontianak in 2019. The case even went viral and received public support through an online petition with the hashtag #justiceforaudrey. However, it was later discovered that the case was a fabrication made by Audrey after several years of the case going viral. The audience was then made guilty of blaming the alleged perpetrator without seeing the real truth first. Content about bullying cases is then no longer a bridge of information for the public, but also a business field and a place to get public attention. This research aims to dissect how cases of child bullying in the media from the perspective of media political economy and Islamic perspective communication.

PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT OF ISLAMIC BANKS IN THE LIGHT OF MAQASID AL-SHARIAH: A GLOBAL EVIDENCE

As an “Islamic” entity, Islamic banks are expected to fulfill the purposes of Islamic law. This study aims to assess the performance of Islamic banks beyond traditional yardsticks, to emphasize their ethical, social, and environmental role in accordance with the higher goals of Islamic law namely Maqasid al-Shariah. Based on Imam al-Ghazali’s concept of Maqasid al-Shariah, we develop a Maqasid al-Shariah index including the 5 objectives of Shariah (Preservation of Life, Religion, Intellect, Posterity, and Wealth). Sekaran’s operationalization method is used to transform the theoretical concept of Maqasid al-Shariah into measurable indicators. The originality of this study stems from two factors: First, we build on previous research to develop a new Maqasid al-Shariah index with 12 dimensions, 25 elements, and 25 indicators. Second, we provide fresh insight into the Maqasid al-Shariah performance of 10 large and well-established Islamic banks from 2017 to 2021. The results of the 5-year study show that Meezan Bank in Pakistan performed the highest score, while Dubai Islamic Bank received the lowest. Furthermore, when comparing the performance of the sampled Islamic banks across the five objectives, we find that they earned the lowest score in the objective of intellect due to their failure to disclose the required information in their annual reports.

Reinterpreting Modern Monetary Theory Through an Islamic Lens: Insights from Indonesia's Economic Thought

Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) has gained attention, particularly following the crisis caused by COVID-19, which led every country to experience a significant decline in economic growth. This concept proposes the idea that a central bank can create money to finance real sector activities without having to borrow from specific parties, which is then believed to solve various economic problems. This theory has sparked various disagreements within conventional economics. Therefore, in countries that adopt dual economic systems, they certainly have their own perspectives when considering this monetary theory. This research utilizes library documentation or collected reading sources as data sources. The research findings suggest that the concept of MMT is not in conflict with Islamic Sharia, as the MMT concept aligns with the functions of money described by Al Ghazali and Ibn Khaldun. Hence, the MMT concept is not expected to lead to excessive inflation, as it conforms to the Islamic theory of the function of money, where money serves as a medium of exchange rather than a tradable commodity. With this concept, the quantity of goods in a country will be accompanied by the Money Supply. However, the application of economic theories like MMT must be adapted to the conditions and economic concepts of a given country. Despite MMT's compatibility with Islamic monetary concepts, Indonesia is not yet ready to fully implement MMT, which is why the predicted level of moral hazard risk is higher.
