Abstract:This study discusses the adaptation strategies of non-Muslim MSMEs to halal certification regulations in Manado City from the perspective of Maqasid al-Syari'ah. This is a qualitative study. The research design is field…
research. The informants in this study consisted of MUI officials in North Sulawesi Province and non-Muslim MSME actors in Manado City. The results of this study indicate that: Non-Muslim SME actors have demonstrated a high level of adaptation to halal certification regulations through gradual and pragmatic strategies. They began by improving hygiene, recording raw materials, and participating in training and capacity-building programs. These strategies reflect that the actors do not reject the regulations but require an approach tailored to their capacities. In many cases, halal certification is even positioned as a branding tool and a means of market expansion, rather than merely legal compliance. This adaptation also reflects the success of a values-based approach rooted in the principles of maqasid, where regulations are accepted as meaningful and beneficial ethical business practices. Through a dialogic and contextual approach, non-Muslim SME operators have successfully transformed halal certification into an opportunity rather than a threat to their identity.
Abstract:In discourse, speech is not only considered as a linguistic phenomenon but also as a means to maintain or change power relations in society. One of the clearest examples of the use of speech in discourse to change social…
change occurred in The Black Civil Rights Movement from 1955 to 1968 in the United States. Based on the interest in studying Malcolm X's speech further, the thesis writer decided to analyze Malcolm X's speech at the Oxford Union Debate using Fairclough's Critical Discourse Analysis framework with a qualitative method that will focus on linguistic issues as part of social and humanitarian issues. The results of this study showed deconstruction result of Malcolm X's speech text by analyzing various linguistic features from the dimensions of text practice (including positive and negative lexical items, key terms of ideology and belief, modality, and rhetorical devices), discursive practice (including intertextuality and shared knowledge), and sociocultural (including formality and personal pronouns), then continued with a discussion of the relationship between discourse, power, and ideology and the role of Malcolm X's speech in the historical context at that time. It can be concluded that Malcolm X's speech highlights his advocacy for revolutionary justice and self-defense for oppressed black people. He also challenged the power structures of his time, opposing segregation and exposing the hypocrisy of the American and Western governments with white supremacy and colonialism behind the mask of democracy.
Abstract:This study examines the role of textual practice (micro-structure) in shaping humanitarian narratives in news coverage of the Israel-Palestine conflict by CNN US and CNN Indonesia. Employing Fairclough’s Critical Discourse…
urse Analysis (CDA), the research identifies key linguistic features, including lexical choices, sentence structure, modality, rhetorical devices, and pronoun usage, that contribute to the ideological framing of news articles. The findings indicate that CNN US employs neutral and euphemistic language, passive constructions, and hedging devices to maintain journalistic objectivity, whereas CNN Indonesia utilizes emotionally charged language, active voice, and definitive claims to frame the conflict with a strong pro-Palestinian stance. These textual differences underscore the influence of language in constructing public perceptions of humanitarian crises.
Abstract:Marriage Law in Indonesia is the result of the convergence between Islamic legal principles and state regulations, as outlined in Law Number 1 of 1974 on Marriage and the Compilation of Islamic Law (KHI). This study aims…
to analyze how Islamic law and positive law interact in regulating marriage and to what extent their convergence occurs in the practice of religious courts and within the Muslim community in Indonesia. The research employs a normative approach by analyzing sources of Islamic law, statutory regulations, and religious court rulings related to marriage. The findings indicate that although Indonesia’s marriage law is based on Sharia principles, several adjustments have been made to align with positive law to ensure justice and protection for all parties, particularly in aspects such as marriage registration, minimum marriage age, and women's rights. The convergence between Islamic law and positive law reflects efforts to harmonize religious values with national legal interests. However, challenges remain in its implementation, particularly concerning child marriage, polygamy, and divorce, which often spark debates in society. Therefore, further studies are needed to evaluate the effectiveness of Indonesia’s marriage regulations and how Islamic law can continue to adapt within the framework of a modern legal state.

Abstract:Earnings management practices that are increasingly common and have become a culture in some companies are one of the main problems in financial reporting. With the convergence of IFRS standards, it is expected that managers…
gers will produce high quality financial reports, so that reported earnings become more reliable. The purpose of this study is to analyze whether IFRS convergence that has been implemented in Indonesia is able to prevent earnings management practices in Indonesia. This research uses the literature study method, namely, secondary data obtained from articles related to IFRS convergence and earnings management practices in Indonesia. The results showed that the opportunity for earnings management practices still exists after convergence with IFRS, but the value of earnings management after IFRS convergence is lower than before the implementation of IFRS convergence.

Apart from that, direct observation of the report preparation process was also carried out to gain a more in-depth understanding. The research results show that although many accounting firms have implemented best practices in preparing financial and tax reports, there are still several areas where improvements can be made. This includes increased use of technology to increase efficiency and increased collaboration between accounting teams and clients to ensure better compliance. By implementing the recommendations resulting from this research, it is hoped that accounting services firms can improve the services they provide and ensure better compliance with accounting and tax standards

Recommendations include improvements in two-way communication between management and members, integration of information technology, and strengthening of institutional capacity.
Abstract:Disclosure of a criminal case in order to find the perpetrator of a criminal act cannot be separated from witness statements as evidence. Witness testimony that is recognized as evidence is only testimony that meets subjective…
ective and objective requirements as a witness. In this regard, problems often arise in practice regarding testimonium de auditu witnesses, related to the strength of their evidence before the trial. For certain criminal acts, finding witnesses who saw, heard and experienced the crime is not easy. For example, criminal acts of sexual abuse against children, which are difficult to find because when a criminal act of sexual abuse occurs, at that time there must be only the perpetrator and the victim. The aim of this research is to determine the value and evidentiary strength of the testimony of testimonium de auditu witnesses in the process of proving criminal acts of child molestation. This problem will be answered using normative legal research methods through case studies of Decision Number: 146/Pid.Sus/2020/PN Ktg. The results of the research in writing this article are that the evidentiary value of all evidence, including witnesses, is in the hands of the judge. Judges in determining the value and proof of evidence must pay attention to its suitability with other evidence.
