Authors: Wulandari Theresia Diyah , Balaraman Rani Ann 
Published: October 2023

Abstract: Research on gender bias is always interesting and can continue research related to other fields. One is the study of gender bias in reporting women leaders in the mass media. The social construction in Indonesia distinguishes men and women. Megawati Soekarnoputri is a female leader known as the first and only female President in Indonesia. This study uncovers the news content of two newspapers in Indonesia, namely Kompas and Kedaulatan Rakyat, during Megawati's presidency in the era 2001 - 2004. The researcher uses a content analysis method with the "pen pix" dimension by Cathy Jenkins. This study then interviewed two female journalists from Kompas and Kedaulatan Rakyat to confirm the findings of the news text research in the context of the news production process at the Kompas and Kedaulatan Rakyat editorial staff. The study results show that Kompas and Kedaulatan Rakyat are still gender-biased and focus more on the appearance and personal character of female politicians. The implications of this research are considered essential for media actors' guidelines to maintain gender equality between women and men as news subjects through the choice of news angles and news content flow.

Abstract: Education is the lifeblood that provides knowledge to the community in various fields. The systematic beginning of education has now started from pre-school, primary school, secondary school and to higher level in college or university. All parties regardless of ethnic background, language and religion need the education to be able to live life more harmoniously, respect each other, build success and live based on humanity. At the same time in countries with diverse ethnic, religious and racial communities, the demand for education to understand religious beliefs is often heard. For more countries it is not a big issue to allow the community to provide religious education but not all countries are open and allow educational institutions other than those provided by the government. This is where various problems arise for communities to learn religious teachings, especially for Muslim minorities. Muslim minority communities face various challenges to obtain formal religious education facilities in government-owned schools. Therefore, there are several challenges that have to be overcome to ensure that the Muslim community is able to practice religious teachings while studying in schools owned by the government. This study examines the challenges faced by Muslim minority communities, especially Malays in Perth, Australia.

Abstract: Several determining factors influence the success of the teaching and learning process in the classroom. This study aims to examine the extent to which environmental factors, parents, and peers affect the academic excellence of fifth-grade students in selected religious schools in the state of Terengganu and to analyze the relationship between environmental factors and student academic excellence. This study used a qualitative approach involving document analysis, observation, and interviews with fifth-grade students. The study results found that most parents have a good relationship with the respondents and always motivate them. Still, they provide less help with academic matters such as schoolwork and the preparation of study schedules. Peers also found similar academic excellence and strong socialization influence on respondents. Therefore, parental and peer factors remarkably impact each student in determining academic excellence. In conclusion, the education system greatly depends on the support of environmental factors such as parents and peers to ensure that student academic excellence is at its best.

Abstrak: Keberhasilan sesuatu proses Pembelajaran dan Pengajaran (PdP) di dalam bilik darjah dipengaruhi oleh beberapa elemen penentu kejayaan. Kajian ini dijalankan bertujuan untuk meninjau sejauh mana elemen persekitaran, ibu bapa dan rakan sebaya mempengaruhi kecemerlangan akademik murid tingkatan lima di sekolah-sekolah agama terpilih dalam Negeri Terengganu seterusnya menganalisis hubung kait di antara elemen persekitaran dan kecemerlangan akademik murid. Kajian ini menggunakan pendekatan kaedah kualitatif melibatkan proses menganalisis dokumen, pemerhatian dan temubual responden dalam kalangan murid tingkatan lima. Hasil kajian mendapati kebanyakan ibu bapa mempunyai hubungan yang baik dengan responden dan selalu memberi motivasi kepada mereka tetapi kurang membantu dalam hal-hal pelajaran seperti kerja sekolah dan juga penyediaan jadual belajar. Rakan sebaya juga didapati mempunyai kecemerlangan akademik yang lebih kurang sama dan memberi pengaruh sosialisasi yang kuat kepada responden. Maka, kedua-dua elemen ibu bapa dan rakan sebaya sememangnya memberi impak yang tersendiri kepada setiap individu murid bagi menentukan kecemerlangan dalam bidang akademik. Kesimpulannya, sistem pendidikan sangat memerlukan sokongan elemen persekitaran seperti ibu bapa dan rakan sebaya bagi memastikan kecemerlangan akademik murid berada di tahap yang terbaik.

[The Liberal Approach to Islam and Its Contractions with The Sunni] Pendekatan Liberal terhadap Islam dan Percanggahannya dengan Manhaj Ahli Sunah Waljamaah
Authors: Shafie Ahmad Bazli , Wahab Muhammad Rashidi 
Published: October 2023

Modernism has a great influence on contemporary human civilization. Modernization not only brings about changes in advancement of science and technology, but also challenges the credibility of religious institutions and authorities through ideologies based on secular philosophy. In the Muslim context, the “renewal” or “reform” movement, known as Liberal Islam, has emerged to give a new interpretation of Islam, deconstructing the manhaj of Ahli Sunah Waljamaah and reconstructing a new methodology in accordance with liberalism framework. Through the method of document content analysis, this paper aims at analysing the thoughts of Liberal Islam, in particular; its critical study of the history of Muslim intellectualism and its reinterpretation of the Qur’an based on hermeneutics. The results of the study show that the Liberal Islam approach is completely in conflict with the manhaj of Ahli Sunah Waljamaah which is founded on the basis of wasatiyyah, just (‘adl) and adab. The Sunnis approache has been able to put a balance between the literal-exclusive and liberal-inclusive approaches in the interpretation of Islam throughout the history of Muslim intellectualism. In conclusion, the Liberal Islam thoughts must be rejected as declared in the decision of the Malaysia Fatwa Council.
Modenisme telah memberi pengaruh yang besar ke atas tamadun manusia zaman kini. Modernisasi bukan hanya membawa perubahan dalam bentuk kemajuan sains dan teknologi, tetapi turut mencabar kewibawaan institusi dan autoriti agama melalui pelbagai aliran berasaskan falsafah sekular. Dalam konteks umat Islam, gerakan “pembaharuan” atau “refomasi” yang dikenali sebagai Islam Liberal muncul memberi tafsiran baharu terhadap agama Islam, iaitu dengan merombak manhaj Ahli Sunah Waljamaah dan membina metodologi baharu selari dengan kerangka liberalisme. Melalui pendekatan analisis kandungan dokumen, makalah ini menilai pemikiran Islam Liberal, khususnya penelitian kritis terhadap sejarah intelektualisme umat Islam dan pentafsiran kembali al-Quran menggunakan kaedah hermeneutik. Hasil kajian mendapati bahawa pendekatan Islam Liberal bercanggah sama sekali dengan manhaj Ahli Sunah Waljamaah yang sabit serta bersifat wasatiyyah iaitu adil-beradab. Ahli Sunah Waljamaah berupaya mengimbangi antara literal-ekslusif dan liberal-inklusif ketika berdepan dengan pelbagai aliran pemikiran menyeleweng sepanjang sejarah umat Islam. Disebabkan itu, pemikiran Islam Liberal perlu ditolak oleh umat Islam di Malaysia selari dengan keputusan fatwa.
