Published: January 2025

This study aims to explain al-Ghazali's views on the relationship between spiritual intelligence based on al-Qalb (the heart) and work performance. In this context, al-Ghazali argues that to achieve high-quality work, an employee needs to have a strong al-Qalb (heart). Without it, the work results may not meet the desired objectives. The study uses a literature review methodology with a descriptive analytical approach to examine al-Ghazali's views and other sources supporting the concept of spiritual intelligence. The data obtained will be analyzed using content analysis techniques. The analysis results show that al-Ghazali emphasizes that spiritual intelligence, particularly through the role of al-Qalb (the heart), is key in shaping good and quality personal values. This concept underscores the importance of integrating both spiritual and professional aspects in a person's life. The relevance of al-Ghazali's model of spiritual intelligence lies in the close relationship between spiritual aspects and work performance. To achieve spiritual intelligence based on al-Qalb, one must apply the principles of tawhid accurately and comprehensively.

Published: January 2025

Occupational safety and health are especially important in the new normal era due to the pandemic threat which may have implications for individuals and organizations. Moreover, accidents and injuries in the workplace can cost the organizations financially and non-financially. Although workplace safety has been widely investigated, less consideration is given to the small and medium enterprises. Regrettably, majority of workplace accidents come from SMEs. Furthermore, workplace accidents cause a lot of problems for SMEs such as loss of production time and compensation cost. In Malaysia, the incidence of workplace accidents has been rising in recent years, with the SMEs sector accounting for 80–90% of these incidents. As a result, the study's discussion of health and safety-related issues and challenges in Malaysian SMEs is centred on how these issues may affect the SMEs' ability to grow. Given the increased significance of occupational health and safety, a number of suggestions and solutions are made.

Published: January 2025

This study explores the intersection of religion and entrepreneurship, examining how these domains converge to shape societal and economic landscapes. Religion, with its enduring values and ethical frameworks, profoundly influences entrepreneurial activities, serving as a moral compass and source of inspiration for many entrepreneurs. Conversely, entrepreneurship is often perceived as a means of fulfilling religious obligations, such as charity and community service. Recent research has increasingly highlighted the significant role of religion in guiding ethical decision-making, influencing business practices, and contributing to entrepreneurial success. This bibliometric review provides a comprehensive analysis of global research trends in this field, focusing on 1,387 articles published since 1966. The study employs VOSviewer software to map existing literature and identify key themes, regional focal points, and influential studies. Findings reveal that most research originates from economically developed countries, with the United States (US), the United Kingdom (UK), Indonesia, and Malaysia leading in publication output. This distribution underscores the importance of religion in shaping entrepreneurial activities across diverse cultural and economic contexts. Despite the growing academic interest, the study acknowledges certain limitations, including the reliance on the Scopus database, which may exclude relevant works from other sources. Additionally, the focus on publications from 1966 onward may overlook earlier foundational literature. This review contributes to a deeper understanding of how religion and entrepreneurship intersect, offering insights into emerging themes, gaps in the literature, and potential directions for future research.

Published: January 2025

In recent years, the emerging trend of female entrepreneurship as a sustainable activity has attracted the attention of developing countries such as Bangladesh. Nevertheless, the issues of entrepreneurial leadership and gender relevant to female entrepreneurship have not been sufficiently explored. The growth of social entrepreneurs in Bangladesh remains low compared to the country's population and social problems. Women entrepreneurs have demonstrated their potential to serve society by playing an increasingly important economic role, actively creating jobs and income, and contributing to the tax base. Therefore, it is important to focus on existing women entrepreneurs and their motivations for transforming their businesses into social enterprises. This study proposes an agenda to explore the perspectives of women food entrepreneurs in Bangladesh regarding the development of their food business into a social enterprise, with a focus on the potential impact on food security and sustainable growth. The research agenda emphasizes the relevance and effectiveness of women entrepreneurship in the food sector. Using a qualitative approach, the research agenda aims to gather insights from women entrepreneurs in the food sector. The findings are expected to contribute to discussions on sustainable development and women’s empowerment and highlight the role of women-led social enterprises in the food industry.
INTRANS: AN EMERGING DESIGN OF MALAYSIAN NATIONAL IDENTITY IN TRANSFORMING SCULPTURE
Authors: Abdul Karim Azwan , Khidzir Nik Zulkarnaen , Ibrahim Zukeri , Zali Abdul Aziz Zalay
Published: January 2025

The first transforming sculpture was introduced in Japan by Tomoo Yamaji in the year 2000, and he became one of the artists who popularized this style. Since then, many artists have attempted to replicate this transforming style; however, they have not reached the same standard or style as Yamaji’s sculptures. Additionally, there are very few adaptations of this style or concept worldwide, especially in Malaysia. Therefore, we aim to adapt this concept from Malaysia’s perspective, incorporating both 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional design elements through the Interactive Transforming Sculpture (INTRANS) branding to showcase national identity on a global scale. To realize this innovative INTRANS concept, we need to investigate the appropriate processes and requirements. This involves examining materials and techniques through observation and analysis of previous artworks by various artists, which could help design a sculpture that embodies Malaysian national identity and assist Malaysian sculptors in embracing this identity. Literature indicates that there is a very limited number of fine artists interested in applying this kind of sculpture technique, primarily due to a lack of knowledge about transforming mechanisms and a lack of passion. The adaptation of this concept could lead to further research and development in INTRANS creative innovation.

Authors: Othman Zul Hanis Yop , Sha’ri Sharil Nizam , Abdul Aziz Adi Yasran , Husain Salina
Published: January 2025

The definition of lexical meaning in the Northern Dialect (DU) has caused problems for users due to the existence of confusion due to the dexterity of the meaning, the circularity of the meaning and the overlapping of meanings in interpreting an entry/subentry and phrase. This study will identify DU entries that have ambiguity in meaning based on the definition in the Kamus Dewan Fourth Edition (KD4), describe DU entries that have ambiguity in meaning based on the definition in KD4 using the Meaning Component Analysis Theory (1975) and formulate a new definition of DU entries in KD4. This study will use a total of 30 staff members from the Federal Agricultural Marketing Board (FAMA) by using a group sampling method based on criteria that have been set such as age, academic level, state of birth, and service level. Respondents will be interviewed in groups according to state related to DU entries taken in KD4 to obtain data and the data will be analyzed using theory. The interview process takes between 15 and 20 minutes. The results of the study found that there is a difference in the meaning received by users regarding the DU entry referred to in KD4 with the meaning given by native DU speakers. Therefore, it is hoped that this study can provide an opportunity for future researchers to carry out studies related to lexical meaning, especially in the Malay dialect.
LANGUAGE VITALITY AMONG THE YOUNG GENERATION OF A MINORITY ETHNIC GROUP IN SABAH
Authors: Dani Noor Aina , Seruji Zuraini
Published: January 2025

This research paper assessed the vitality of the Bisaya language, spoken by a minority ethnic group in the Beaufort district of Sabah. The study utilized a field survey method, distributing questionnaires to participants, 205 upper secondary students from the Bisaya ethnicity representing three national secondary schools. The authors employed the UNESCO language vitality assessment model. The findings indicated that Bisaya speakers are at risk within the larger population. The intergenerational transmission of the Bisaya language between older and younger generations is under threat, and its use across various domains is declining. Although some written materials in Bisaya are available, they primarily serve only a portion of the community; for others, the language may hold merely symbolic significance. Notably, there is no literacy education in the Bisaya language in the school curriculum. Despite these challenges, community members generally express positive attitudes toward preserving the language. While the quality and type of documentation for the Bisaya language are reasonable, the influence of the Malay language has begun to impact the home environment. The status of the Bisaya language demonstrates a clear risk of endangerment, even though its speakers have not yet transitioned to using another language. The authors recommend that the Language Development Agency of the Ministry of Education, Malaysia, establish an ethnolinguistic framework for revitalizing the vitality of the Bisaya language.

DEVELOPMENT OF CAUSAL LOOP DIAGRAM FOR UNDERSTANDING THE SUSTAINABILITY OF MALAYSIAN GLUTINOUS RICE: A SYSTEM DYNAMICS APPROACH
Authors: Nor A’zam Muhammad Khairul Zharif , Ahmarofi Ahmad Afif
Published: January 2025

The cultivation of glutinous rice remains limited in Malaysia which occupies less than four percent of the total rice-growing area in the country. In this regard, this study examines the complex dynamics of the glutinous rice system in Malaysia using a causal loop diagram (CLD) to understand the interactions between various factors like productivity, land use, population growth, and food security. To fulfill that, a CLD based on the system dynamics (SD) approach is developed to highlight the reinforcing and balancing loops that drive and constrain the system. In the developed CLD, the causal relationships are established by connecting the identified cause-and-effect variables. Subsequently, the causal signs are determined based on a positive (+) or a negative (–) sign to each relationship between variables. As a result, balancing loops illustrate that an increase in research and development (R&D), training, and government subsidies can enhance rice production, thereby improving food security and income levels. However, these benefits are tempered by a reinforcing loop that reflects the system’s limitations, which eventually curb sustainability glutinous rice production, particularly caused by the increasing Malaysian population. Furthermore, higher productivity and food security must be managed carefully to avoid over-exploitation of resources. The insights from this model are critical for policymakers to ensure the long-term sustainability of the glutinous rice sector while meeting the growing demand.

Published: January 2025

Electronic payments, also known as cashless transactions, offer numerous advantages over traditional cash transactions, such as eliminating the need for change, reducing the risk of theft, and enhancing convenience. Many retailers have embraced electronic payment methods, including QR pay, credit or debit cards, and e-wallets, as viable alternatives for customers. Despite the availability of these options, there remains a reluctance among university students and staff to fully adopt cashless payment methods. In addition, issues such as concerns over privacy and data security, a lack of trust in the reliability of digital payment platforms, and inadequate awareness of how these systems function contribute to this hesitation. Thus, this study aims to explore the underlying reasons for this hesitation. Findings reveal that attitudes, knowledge levels, and willingness to embrace cashless transactions are key factors influencing this hesitancy. Accordingly, it is crucial for university administrations to implement appropriate digital policies to facilitate the transition towards a fully cashless and digitally integrated campus environment.

Published: January 2025

The loyalty of students in Pesantren (Islamic Boarding School) is influenced by the leadership of the Kiai, religious culture, and information technology. The purpose of this study is to understand the influence of the leadership style of the Kiai and the culture of the Islamic boarding school on the loyalty of students with information technology as a moderator variable. This study combines quantitative and qualitative approaches with a mixed method and a multi-case study. Data were collected through questionnaires, semi-structured interviews, and documentation. Quantitative analysis used moderate regression analysis (MRA), while qualitative analysis was conducted using thematic analysis. Data triangulation and member checks ensured the validity of the results. The study results indicate that kiai leadership and pesantren culture significantly influence students' loyalty at the Nurul Jadid Probolinggo and Al-Hikam Malang pesantren. With a personal approach, Kiai's inspiring and humanistic leadership builds a strong emotional bond with students. In addition, the pesantren culture that emphasises religious values ​​and character forms student loyalty. Information technology also supports communication, operational efficiency, and more enjoyable learning. Regression analysis shows that pesantren culture has a more significant influence than leadership style, with an R² of 0.670 indicating a moderate relationship between the independent and dependent variables. The implications of this study indicate that Kiai's leadership and the pesantren's culture play an important role in building the loyalty of the students, which is strengthened by the application of information technology. The limitations of this study lie in the scope, which is limited to two pesantren, so the results cannot be generalised to other pesantren.

The evolution of Electronic Health Records (EHR) has facilitated comprehensive patient record-keeping, enhancing healthcare delivery and decision-making processes. Despite these advancements, analyzing EHR data using ensemble machine learning methods poses unique challenges. These challenges include data dimensionality, imbalanced class distributions, and the need for effective hyperparameter tuning to optimize model performance. The study conducted a thorough comparative analysis of various ensemble machine learning (EML) models using Electronic Health Record (EHR) datasets. After addressing data imbalance and reducing dimensionality, the accuracy of the EML models showed significant improvement. Notably, the Gradient Boosting Machine (GBM) and CatBoost models exhibited superior performance with an accuracy of 73%, achieved through experiments involving dimensionality reduction and handling of imbalanced data. Furthermore, optimization techniques such as Grid Search and Random Search were employed to enhance the EML models. The results of model optimization revealed that the GBM + Random Search model performed the best, achieving an accuracy of 74%, followed by the XGBoost + Grid Search model with an accuracy of 73%. The GBM model also excelled in distinguishing between positive and negative classes, boasting the highest Area under Curve (AUC) value of 0.78, indicative of its superior classification capabilities compared to other models. This study emphasizes the significance of incorporating cutting-edge EML techniques into clinical workflows and emphasizes the revolutionary potential of GBM in classification modeling for patient severity conditions.

Published: January 2025

Stress comes in many forms for livestock, including physical, chemical, nutritional, thermal, and psychological stress. Changes in skin temperature, heart rate, respiration rate, and rectal temperature are indicators of physiological reactions to heat stress. Regression investigation of the physiological reactions of Nigerian native goat breeds (West African dwarf and Red Sokoto) to heat stress was the goal of this study. 400 goats (200 West African Dwarf and 200 Red Sokoto) from Osun, Ondo, and Ekiti states in Nigeria were subjected to varying climatic conditions (temperature and humidity) in order to gather data on physiological indicators (rectal temperature, pulse rate, and respiration rate). An analysis of variance (ANOVA) was performed to evaluate variations in the physiological parameters, and the temperature and humidity index (THI) was computed for the study's environmental conditions.  The coefficient of determination (R2), which represents the accuracy of the predictions, was calculated using regression analysis. The results demonstrated that both breeds' physiological characteristics reacted similarly, with higher THI values considerably increasing heart rate, respiration rate, and rectal temperature. Regression evaluation indicated that THI had a significant (P ≤ 0.05) and positive effect on heart rate (R² = 0.545), respiration rate (R² = 0.32), and rectal temperature (R² = 0.146) for the Red Sokoto breed. These physiological adaptations enable goats to survive and thrive in challenging and variable environments.

Published: January 2025

Este artigo apresenta um breve estudo sobre o advogado empregado e a subordinação jurídica focando principalmente nos liames fáticos do vínculo empregatício na advocacia. Portanto, será dividido em três tópicos principais com subtópicos para melhor esclarecimento através de uma metodologia quantitativa, com consulta doutrinaria, jurisprudencial e a outros meios disponíveis. O objetivo, após estudo doutrinário, é demonstrar que o direito do trabalho foi concebido e materializado como um instrumento de proteção aos trabalhadores com baixo nível de qualificação, entendidos como aqueles que, sem propriedade dos meios de produção, vender seus produtos. trabalhar força por uma quantia monetária. A hipossuficiência, no âmbito do modelo de produção fordista/taylorista, se confundia com a submissão do trabalhador às ordens diretas do tomador de serviços, fato este que ensejou a elaboração de um conceito de subordinação jurídica atrelado ao exercício efetivo, pelo tomador dos serviços, do seu poder diretivo, sendo este o seu conceito clássico. Por outro lado, o conceito de potencial oculto surge então como uma proposta teórica que visa contextualizar o direito do trabalho no contexto socioeconómico e tecnológico contemporâneo, salvando assim o ideal protetor e socializador deste ramo específico da ciência jurídica. O advogado empregado está previsto na Lei nº 14.365 de 2 de junho de 2022 publicado pela Ordem dos Advogados do Brasil, que reflete a realidade do mercado de trabalho nacional. Neste contexto, a doutrina e a jurisprudência nacional da maioria podem destacar a subordinação jurídica como requisito que caracteriza a relação de trabalho do advogado. Tal como a isenção técnica, a independência e a liberdade profissional do exercício da advocacia, a subordinação jurídica do advogado assume novos contornos, exigindo uma interpretação diferente ou atenuada da instituição face a uma concepção clássica dela.

De natureza exploratória, análise metodológica qualitativa e método hipotético-dedutivo, destina-se a responder o seguinte questionamento: em que medida a Lei da Reforma Psiquiátrica contribuiu para o enfraquecimento da hegemonia do modelo manicomial? Concluímos que, apesar da considerável redução de leitos e fechamento dos hospitais psiquiátricos, ante o obedecimento das diretrizes previstas na Lei da Reforma Psiquiátrica, esta contribui parcialmente para o enfraquecimento da hegemonia do modelo manicomial, tendo em vista que ainda existem hospitais psiquiátricos e leitos psiquiátricos, disponibilizados em todas as regiões do território nacional.

Authors: João Vitor de Paula Hokama
Published: January 2025

A presente pesquisa tem como principal objetivo analisar a viabilidade jurídica do pedido de conversão do pedido de demissão em rescisão indireta, abordando-se, para tanto, as decisões conflitantes na Justiça do Trabalho acerca do tema, bem como os argumentos que advogam pela possibilidade e, ainda, pela inviabilidade do pleito em comento. Nesse sentido, a problemática do referido pedido é consubstanciada no debate acerca da imediatidade, da questão do ato jurídico perfeito do pedido de demissão e da gravidade do ato praticado pelo empregador à luz do Artigo 483, da CLT. Para a referida análise, foi realizada análise jurisprudencial, sopesando-se 21 decisões dos TRTs e do TST, bem como ampla pesquisa doutrinária e bibliográfica acerca do tema. Ao realizar o cotejo entre os argumentos e as decisões proferidas pelos Tribunais, foi possível constatar a existência de precedentes favoráveis à conversão no âmbito do TST, bem como a importância da edição de Súmula que aborde a viabilidade do pleito, com o objetivo de reduzir o número de decisões conflitantes, especialmente no âmbito das Varas do Trabalho e dos Tribunais Regionais, garantindo, assim, maior segurança jurídica e celeridade aos processos que debatam a matéria.

Published: January 2025

Este artigo faz uma análise crítica da indústria da moda e visa contribuir para as discussões sobre a relação entre a Fast Fashion e o crescente número de casos de trabalho escravo na indústria da moda. Demonstra-se que as condições de trabalho nessa indústria pioraram com a recente Reforma Trabalhista de 2017. Nesse contexto, aponta-se que a relevância contemporânea do tema é significativa, uma vez que há pouco conhecimento escrito que foque nas preocupações com as condições de trabalho no setor da moda e como as mudanças nas leis trabalhistas impactam essas condições. Além disso, são discutidas as violações das leis trabalhistas no Brasil e os desafios de fiscalização das políticas públicas nesse campo.

The purpose of this study was to investigate how digital literacy influences students' motivation and Fiqh academic achievement at MA Badrul Islam Gulung. A quantitative descriptive correlational approach was employed, with a sample of 23 purposively selected twelfth-grade students. Data were collected using questionnaires to assess digital literacy and motivation, semester exam scores for academic achievement, and observations on the use of technology in learning. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, and simple linear regression. The results revealed a significant positive correlation between digital literacy and both learning motivation (r = 0.652, p < 0.05) and academic achievement in Fiqh (r = 0.718, p < 0.05). Digital literacy accounted for 42.5% of the variance in learning motivation and 51.5% of the variance in academic achievement. These findings suggest that students with higher levels of digital literacy are more motivated and perform better academically, particularly in Fiqh. The study concludes that digital literacy plays a critical role in enhancing students' motivation and academic success. It emphasizes the need for integrating digital literacy into the educational curriculum, particularly in Islamic education, to foster better learning outcomes and equip students with the necessary skills for success in a technology-driven world. This highlights the importance of digital literacy as an essential component of modern educational practices.

This study aimed to: 1) analyze the correlation between learning media variation and students' understanding of Fiqh material in Grade VI at SDIT Abuhurairah Mataram; 2) examine the correlation between students' reading interest and their understanding of Fiqh material; and 3) determine the joint influence of learning media variation and reading interest on students' understanding of Fiqh material. A quantitative correlational approach was employed, with data collected from 30 students using questionnaires to assess learning media variation and reading interest and tests to measure understanding of Fiqh material. Data were analyzed using Pearson’s correlation coefficient and multiple regression analysis. The results revealed three key findings: 1) a strong positive correlation (r=0.72) between learning media variation and students' understanding of Fiqh material, indicating that diverse teaching tools significantly enhance comprehension; 2) a positive and significant correlation (r=0.65) between reading interest and understanding of Fiqh material, demonstrating that higher reading interest fosters better engagement and comprehension; and 3) a significant joint influence of learning media variation and reading interest, accounting for 68% of the variability in students' understanding (R²=0.68). Regression analysis indicated that learning media variation (b₁=0.45) had a slightly greater impact than reading interest (b₂=0.38). These findings highlight the importance of integrating diverse teaching media, such as visual aids, technology, and interactive activities, alongside fostering reading interest through engaging materials and activities to optimize student comprehension. Practical implications include adopting innovative teaching methods to enhance engagement and learning outcomes.
