Asriani, Jhonmarth Kastanya, Usrina La Ode Raipu, Rita J D Atarwaman
Abstract: Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) are important pillars of the regional economy, yet they still face various limitations in financial management and business decision-making. A low understanding of accounting… often leads to financial decisions being made intuitively without an adequate information base. This article aims to analyze the impact of accounting understanding on the quality of financial decision-making in culinary MSMEs in Ambon City, using the case study of Ibu Suherni La Umar's Ayam Geprek business. The research method uses a qualitative explorative approach through in-depth interviews and observation. The results showed that although the business owner has not fully implemented a formal accounting system, practical understanding related to costs, turnover, profit margins, and the use of digital platforms and non-cash payments has helped in making more rational financial decisions. The use of GoFood and QRIS was proven to increase turnover, transaction efficiency, and the financial security of the business. This study concludes that a simple understanding of accounting plays an important role in improving the quality of financial decision-making and the sustainability of culinary MSMEs.

THE SOCIAL FUNCTION OF TRADITIONAL POETRY OF BINI PULAU ROTE IN THE MAINTENANCE OF THE SOCIO-CULTURAL IDENTITY OF LOCAL COMMUNITIES

Yeheskial A Roen, Jeni M. Ataupah, Jacklin S. Manafe
Abstract: This study aims to analyze the social function of bini traditional poetry in the maintenance of the socio-cultural identity of local communities in Londalusi, East Rote District, Rote-Ndao Regency. The focus of the research… rch is directed at the identification of the educational, normative, symbolic, integrative, and communicative functions of oral traditions related to the life cycle of society, including birth, marriage, and death. This study uses a qualitative approach with ethnographic-descriptive design. Data was collected through in-depth interviews and documentation of traditional narratives submitted by two key informants, namely traditional speakers (manehelo) and local traditional leaders. Data analysis was carried out thematically to map the social function of traditional narratives in the context of people's social lives. The results of the study show that traditional narratives and traditional bini poetry play an important role as a medium for inheriting traditional values, collective memory, local cosmology, and inter-generational social ethics. This oral tradition functions as a means of informal education, a regulator of social norms, a symbol of representation of the Rote people's worldview, a strengthening of social cohesion, and a cultural communication medium that maintains the continuity of the socio-cultural identity of the local community. This research confirms that the oral tradition of bini is not just an aesthetic expression, but a living and adaptive socio-cultural system. These findings contribute to strengthening the study of oral literature and cultural anthropology, especially in the context of Indonesian archipelago communities.

EXPERIENTIAL VALUE AS A DRIVER OF BRAND LOVE AND CUSTOMER LOYALTY THROUGH CUSTOMER SATISFACTION IN THE SLOW BAR COFFEE SHOP TOKO KOPI LAJENG

Rama, Putu Nina Madiawati, Arry Widodo
Abstract: The increasing popularity of slow bar coffee shops in Indonesia reflects a shift in consumer preferences towards more personalized, immersive, and educational coffee experiences. This study aims to examine the effect of&#8230; Experience Value, consisting of Customer Return on Investment (CROI), Service Excellence, Aesthetics, and Enjoyment, on Brand Love and Customer Loyalty through the mediating role of Customer Satisfaction among customers of Lajeng Coffee Shop in Bandung. A quantitative survey was conducted using purposive sampling, collecting 251 valid responses through a Likert scale questionnaire, and the data were analyzed with Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) using SmartPLS. The results show that Experience Value has a significant effect on Customer Satisfaction (β = 0.721; p < 0.001). Customer Satisfaction acts as a partial mediator in the relationship between Experience Value and Brand Love and Customer Loyalty. Furthermore, the effect of Customer Satisfaction on Customer Loyalty (β = 0.462; p < 0.001) is stronger than its effect on Brand Love (β = 0.441; p < 0.001), indicating that satisfaction is more easily translated into loyal behavior than into emotional attachment. These findings extend customer experience research in the slow bar context and offer practical guidance for managers to prioritize experience investments that strengthen loyalty and brand love.

A NEW DIRECTION IN ARABIC MORPHOSYNTACTIC STUDIES: INTEGRATING CLASSICAL THEORY, MODERN LINGUISTICS, AND PEDAGOGICAL APPLICATIONS

Muhammad Fathin Haqqar, Hamzah
Abstract: Traditional Arabic linguistic studies often fall into a dichotomy that separates Nahwu (syntax) and Sharf (morphology), causing learners to lose the functional orientation of the language. This research aims to formulate&#8230; a new direction in Arabic morphosyntactic studies through the integration of classical theory, modern linguistics, and pedagogical applications. Using a qualitative-descriptive approach with a library research method, data were analyzed comparatively and integratively from various reputable scientific literatures. The research results show that the integration of Al-Jurjani's Nazhm theory with systemic functional and generative-transformational linguistic perspectives is capable of providing a more logical explanation of Arabic language structures. Furthermore, digitalization through corpus analysis and computational linguistics enables empirical mapping of language patterns to support AI development. Pedagogically, the implementation of an integrative approach that unites the teaching of Nahwu and Sharf, alongside the utilization of data-based media, has proven to be more effective in enhancing students' communicative skills compared to conventional methods. This research concludes that strengthening morphosyntactic studies is a crucial step in modernizing Arabic language learning in the global era.

RECONSTRUCTING SOCIAL PIETY: OVERCOMING THE HYPER-INDEPENDENCE OF GENERATION Z PERSPECTIVE OF AL-QUR'AN SURAH AL-MA'UN

Muh. Alimin, Syamsul Ma’arif Ilyas, Ahmad Tri Muslim HD, Harel Bayu Paizin, Ratnah Umar
Abstract: This research aims to deconstruct the phenomenon of hyper-independence that massively affects Generation Z within the contemporary digital ecosystem. As digital natives, Generation Z often falls into the trap of extreme&#8230; self-reliance, which is regarded as a personal achievement but sociologically triggers the disintegration of social capital and societal atomization. The primary issue raised is how technological independence paradoxically creates emotional distance and social apathy toward real-world suffering. Utilizing a qualitative method based on library research and a Social Interpretation (al-tafsir al-ijtima’i) approach, this study positions Surah Al-Ma’un as a theological framework to address this solidarity crisis. The analysis is conducted by creating a dialogue between the Quranic text and digital sociological theories regarding social ties and atomization. The results show that Surah Al-Ma’un offers a radical critique of "religious individualism" by categorizing those who separate prayer rituals from social sensitivity as deniers of the faith. This study finds novelty in the reinterpretation of the term al-ma'un, which in the digital era is no longer limited to simple material aid but has transformed into "collaborative assets" encompassing information literacy, emotional support, and digital resource accessibility for marginalized groups. The research formulates the Inclusive Social Piety model, which integrates three main pillars: spiritual interconnection awareness, digital altruism, and empowering independence. This model functions as a solution to transform the narcissistic "I" paradigm into a collaborative "We" paradigm. In conclusion, the internalization of Al-Ma’un's values acts as a bridge between the personal advancement of Generation Z and their collective responsibility, serving as a basis for character strengthening in Islamic higher education to remain functional and responsive to human problems in the era of disruption.

Rita J D Atarwaman, Yosefa.Reresi, Inkana Dewanti Banea, Permata Sary Lausiry
Abstract: Transparent and accountable village financial management is one of the important indicators in realizing good village governance. The government has established the Village Financial Accounting Standards (SAKD) as guidelines&#8230; ines for the preparation and presentation of village financial reports. However, in practice, the implementation of SAKD still faces various challenges, particularly those related to the competence of village officials as financial managers. This study aims to analyze the effect of village officials’ competence on the implementation of the Village Financial Accounting Standards (SAKD) in Poka Village. This study uses a quantitative approach with a survey method. Data were collected through the distribution of questionnaires to all village officials directly involved in village financial management using a saturated sampling technique. The independent variable in this study is the competence of village officials, which includes technical, managerial, and conceptual competencies, while the dependent variable is the implementation of SAKD. Data were analyzed using linear regression analysis with the assistance of statistical software. The results of the study indicate that the competence of village officials has a positive and significant effect on the implementation of SAKD in Poka Village. These findings suggest that improving the competence of village officials can encourage more optimal implementation of SAKD and enhance the quality of village financial management and reporting in a sustainable manner, thereby supporting public transparency and accountability as well as more effective and responsible village financial decision-making by the village government and stakeholders.

CLASSICAL NAHWU SCIENCE: THE THEORY OF I'RAB, 'AMIL, AND A CRITICAL REVIEW OF THE BASRAH AND KUFA MODELS

Erni Nurjaya, Ahmad Dani, Hamzah
Abstract: This research discusses the concepts of i’rab and ‘amil in Arabic grammar and examines the methodological differences between the Basra and Kufa schools as the two primary streams in the construction of nahwu (syntax). I’rab&#8230; ). I’rab is understood as the changes in the vowels at the end of words influenced by the presence of an ‘amil (governor) and the word's position within the sentence structure, thus playing a vital role in preserving meaning and syntactic order in the Arabic language. This study employs a qualitative approach with a library research method, tracing primary sources from the works of classical scholars and secondary sources from modern studies. Data analysis was conducted using content and comparative analysis methods to identify the epistemological characteristics of both schools. The results of the study show that the Basra school is prescriptive, rational, and selective regarding linguistic sources, whereas the Kufa school is more descriptive, flexible, and open to various speech patterns, including those considered syadz (irregular). These differing approaches impact how both schools understand and formulate the rules of i’rab and ‘amil. This study concludes that both schools provided distinct yet complementary contributions to the development of Arabic nahwu, where Basra played a role in theoretical standardization and Kufa contributed to the preservation of linguistic reality. These findings emphasize that the understanding of i’rab is not only related to grammatical aspects but is also supported by historical and epistemological perspectives within the scientific tradition of the Arabic language.

THE INFLUENCE OF LEADERSHIP STYLE AND ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE ON REMOTE WORK ADAPTATION READINESS WITH THE MEDIATION ROLE OF INDIVIDUAL DIGITAL READINESS

Rita J D Atawarman, Siti Sholeha hasan, Rivaldo Lyonel Papilaya
Abstract: The development of digital technology and changes in the global work environment, particularly post-pandemic, have encouraged organizations to adopt remote and hybrid work systems. The successful implementation of these&#8230; work systems is determined not only by technological readiness but also by organizational and individual factors. This study aims to analyze the influence of transformational leadership style and organizational culture on readiness to adapt to remote work, and to examine the mediating role of individual digital readiness in this relationship. This study uses a quantitative approach with an explanatory method. Data were collected through a Likert-scale-based questionnaire distributed online to employees working in remote or hybrid work systems using a purposive sampling technique. Data analysis was performed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) and PROCESS macro to test the direct relationship and mediation effects between variables. The results of this study are expected to provide theoretical contributions to the development of literature related to leadership, organizational culture, and individual digital readiness, as well as provide practical implications for organizations in designing leadership strategies, strengthening organizational culture, and developing digital competencies to improve readiness to adapt to remote work effectively and sustainably.

THE CONCEPT OF TA’DIB IN ISLAMIC EDUCATION AS A SOLUTION TO THE DIGITAL ETHICS CRISIS AMONG STUDENTS: THE PERSPECTIVE OF SYED MUHAMMAD NAQUIB AL-ATTAS

Suyono, Diky Ardha Sundawa, Rizaldi Isnanta, Jailani, Bahtiar Siregar
Abstract: The increasingly pervasive development of digital technology has not been fully accompanied by the strengthening of ethical awareness in its practical use. This situation is reflected in various phenomena among students,&#8230; including the tendency toward excessive use of social media, the declining quality of ethics in online communication, and the weakening of mutual respect in digital spaces. These conditions indicate that digital ethics cannot be understood merely as a technological problem but are closely related to the direction of values and the fundamental goals of education. Departing from this reality, this study aims to examine the concept of ta’dib in the thought of Syed Muhammad Naquib al-Attas as an alternative conceptual framework for responding to the digital ethics crisis from the perspective of Islamic education. This study employs a qualitative approach through library research by critically examining al-Attas’s major works as well as national and international scholarly journal articles from the past five years relevant to digital ethics and Islamic education. The findings reveal that the weakening of digital ethics is rooted in an educational paradigm that tends to emphasize cognitive aspects and technical skill mastery, while the formation of adab as the core of education is neglected. Within this framework, the concept of ta’dib offers a holistic philosophical foundation by positioning education as a process of internalizing adab that integrates intellectual, moral, and spiritual dimensions in an integral manner. Therefore, this study concludes that the application of the concept of ta’dib has the potential to serve as a strategic foundation for building sustainable, value-oriented digital ethics among students that are relevant to the challenges of Islamic education in the digital era.

THE EFFECT OF BUDGETARY DECENTRALIZATION (DECENTRALIZATION CUTS) AND THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEM ON THE QUALITY OF ACCOUNTABILITY OF THE COOPERATIVE SERVICE'S FINANCIAL REPORTS

Rita J D Atawarman, Natalie Jessica Rubak, Natalia H.Tatuhey, Erika Kili-Kili
Abstract: AThis study aims to empirically test and analyze the influence of Budgetary Decentralization (DP)—including the dynamics of Decentralization Curtailment—and the Effectiveness of the Internal Control System (ICS) on the Quality&#8230; he Quality of Financial Statement Accountability (QFSA) at the Ambon City Cooperatives Office. QFSA is considered a crucial reflection of public entity responsibility, affected by the mechanism of fiscal authority allocation and the internal oversight system. This quantitative research employs a survey method, with the population being all staff involved in the financial cycle at the Ambon City Cooperatives Office (Head of Office, PPK, and PPTK). Given the limited number of relevant subjects, a Saturated Sampling (Census) technique was used. Primary data was collected via a Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed using Multiple Linear Regression Analysis with SPSS software. Empirically, the results are expected to prove that (1) Budgetary Decentralization (including curtailment dynamics) has a significant influence on QFSA, and (2) The effectiveness of a robust ICS is positively and significantly correlated with QFSA. These findings are important for enriching the public sector accounting literature, highlighting the necessity of balancing delegated authority (decentralization) with the strengthening of internal control to achieve optimal financial statement accountability at the Local Government Unit (SKPD) level
