From Fiqh al-Ibadat to Muamalat: Repositioning Zakat Management in Indonesia in the Perspective of Maqāṣid Al-Sharī’ah

Zakat is one of the pillars of Islam and is considered an instrument that can potentially contribute to the economic development of the Muslim community in Indonesia. However, the current system and management of zakat have not been able to minimize the gap between the potential zakat that exists and the actual zakat that can be collected. This paper aims to examine zakat in its position as fiqh al-ibadat (Islamic jurisprudence of worship) and the consequences of its limited application, if not non-existent. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to complement existing literature by proposing a new solution to the problem of zakat. This empirical legal study employed the maqāṣid al-sharī’ah (objectives of Islamic law) approach. Data were collected by means of interview and literature review from relevant journal articles, books, and websites. The results of the study revealed that there is a need to reposition zakat from fiqh al-ibadat to fiqh muamalat. This will allow for more flexible zakat management that will have a maximum impact on the welfare of the Muslim community. Therefore, it can be argued that from the perspective of maqāṣid al-sharī’ah, zakat is not only an act of worship related to the purification of wealth, but more than that, zakat can also be an instrument to promote the welfare and economic development of society if it is managed effectively and properly. The change in meaning and paradigm is significant to ensure that the maqāṣid al-sharī’ah can be achieved effectively.

Ecological and social volunteering prioritized by governmental regulatory documents is not consistent with implementing sustainable development goals. The need to facilitate volunteering development in universities accomplishing the mission of social and economic development of society in partnership with businesses and civil society institutions is underestimated both in research and in practice. Using system and activity approaches, the authors set the goal to describe the present state of students’ ecological and social volunteering as an efficient platform for attaining sustainable development goals and necessitate its further systemic support. It is shown that the concept of sustainable development is not being an ideological orientation of volunteering practices, although students’ competences aimed at promoting common welfare could be more efficiently developed not only at theoretical level but through real volunteering for the good of future generations. In cross-sectoral partnership of universities, businesses and state, ecological and social goals are achieved by means of volunteering under the supervision of the state while Russian businesses, applying the ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) principles, do not spare their efforts on collaborative development. As for the subjective factor impeding the development of university students’ volunteering the lack of ideological orientation towards sustainable development, which could be based on universal values specified by Russian culture codes

INTRODUCTION OF SHARIA FINANCING CONTRACTS FOR THE INDONESIAN MSMEs

This is a community service related to the economic society development through introduction of sharia financing contracts for the Indonesian Micro, Small and Medium Enterprise (MSMEs), especially to get the funding of their business. Sharia economics always encourages profit-sharing practices, trading and prohibits usury, which makes Sharia Financial Institutions and stakeholders tend to be more resilient in the face of crises.

Relationship between Hair Designer's Propensity to Consume, Motivation for Purchasing Luxury Goods, and Luxury Purchase Attitude

The need for research on luxury consumption behavior is increasing as individual luxury consumption is expanding among various consumers as a symbolic factor representing their individuality and social status due to the economic development of society and the increase in personal income. Therefore, in this paper, propensity to consume, motivation for purchasing luxury goods, and luxury purchase attitude were investigated and analyzed to study the consumption behavior of the hair designer group. This study directly distributed 400 questionnaires to adults in their 20s and older in Seoul and Gyeonggi Province through a self-response survey, and collected 338 questionnaire analysis data, excluding 62 that were deemed insufficient to analyze. Through reliability analysis and factor analysis, the validity and reliability of hair designers' propensity to consume, motivation for purchasing luxury goods, and luxury purchase attitude were confirmed. In addition, through regression analysis, it was analyzed how propensity to consume, affects motivation for purchasing luxury goods and luxury purchase attitude, and how motivation for purchasing luxury goods affects luxury purchase attitude. As a result of the analysis, it was confirmed that consumers with high ostentatious and planned tendencies are more likely to have an incentive to motivation for purchasing luxury goods, and consumers with reasonable tendencies have a negative relationship with the motivation for purchasing luxury goods. It has also been confirmed that hair designers who want to purchase luxury goods for social or practical purposes have a more positive attitude toward luxury goods. This shows that there is a close relationship between motivation for purchasing luxury goods and purchase attitude, and suggests that consumers' purchase motivation should be considered through strategies that emphasize brand value.
