<p><strong>Abstract:</strong> As a potential financial instrument, waqf has played an essential role in resolving the social problems of the society (ummah). Although Indonesia has long applied the existence of waqf, it has not had an impact on providing an optimal contribution to the welfare of the people. Several studies identified patterns of administration in the management of waqf. The purpose of this study aims to identify and explore the model of empowerment of Mahammadiyah waqf land in Magelang and its challenges in the development of the ummah. The study method used to collect data was descriptive qualitative and interviews, which covered the areas administered by the Mahammadiyah. About 78% of these areas are empowered in the form of educational and worship facilities. However, it was observed that empowerment of the land in Magelang was not optimized due to lack of financial resources, unproductivity, and the presence of incompetent and professional Nazhirs. The solution to these problems is through collaboration with financial institutions in collecting cash equivalents, land specifications, formulating a special legal framework for empowering Muhammadiyah waqf, and training for the development of the capacity of the areas.</p><p><strong>Abstrak:</strong> Sebagai instrumen finansial yang potensial, wakaf memiliki peran penting dalam menyelesaikan permasalahan sosial masyarakat (ummah).

The article describes the structure and powers of the provincial government in the implementation of the main directions of state social policy. It was noted that on theterritoryofBelarusthey played a major role in solving the social problems of the population due to the lack of zemstvos. The outdated legal framework and the lack of a clear division of functions hampered their effectiveness.In the mid 1880s regulatory committees were established in the structure of the provincial institutions. On the territory of the Belarusian provinces they played an important role in the implementation of social policy, as they controlled the financing of the rural­medical part and partly public charity. However, the experience of the activities of the regulatory committees was unsatisfactory. In this regard, at the end of the XIX century the Interior Ministry proposed to eliminate them, as well as to abolish the provincial food commissions and departments of public charity. It was planned to transfer their functions to the zemstvos. This proposal was implemented partially, as a result of the introduction of the institutions of local economy in theVitebsk,MinskandMogilevprovinces in 1903.At the end of the XIX century in the structure of the provincial administration ofBelaruswere created the offices which were entrusted with the functions of monitoring compliance with the workers’ legislation, and then the insurance of workers. They were formed under the influence of new social demands. These offices corresponded to new social and economic conditions, in contrast to the provincial institutions, which managed public charity, national food and health care.

The discourse on waqf recently appears the back to the surface. It not only discusses about the opinion of the fiqh scholars who have no uniform about understanding and nature waqf  itself, but also to reform and optimize waqf  in order to do more, namely to superintend the social problems of society, related to the prosperity of the economy of the people. Therefore, contextualization and repositioning of waqf institutions becomes a necessiry for immediate implementation. The function and role of waqf is very large in supporting the development and progress of the muslims. Therefore the management of waqf must be able to be optimized. Tragically the management of waqf in Indonesia is still not maximized, so there are some waqf property abandoned in its management, some even missing. This is due to the waqf management still uses traditional-consumptive management pattern. Efforts to develop waqf to be productive and productive, there are four things to note; Institutional aspect, accounting aspect, auditing aspect and aspect of nadhir. If these four aspects can be met, then the utilization of waqf will be more efficient. There are several forms of models that can be run by the manager of waqf, such as by holding Sharia banks as a partner with schema of mura>bah}ah, istis}na>’, ija>rah muntahiyah bi al-tamli>k (financial leasing with purchase option), muza>ra’ah, qard} al-h}asan, musha>rakah (partnership) and mud}a>rabah muqayyadah.

The aim of the article is to report on research findings that could contribute to the development of decolonised academic material. Africanisation of curricula implies that education and training as well as praxis be informed by the reality of the South African context, the viewpoints of the people of South Africa and their descriptions of what is needed to build a just society. This is relevant to a variety of service professions. This article was presented from a trans-disciplinary framework, and the term ‘professional carers’, including the social service and theology professions, was used.

Se presenta la manera en la que dos organizaciones hermanas, pretenden insertarse en el esquema gubernamental de financiamiento rural, destacando los elementos que potencian y/o obstaculizan el que las organizaciones se apropien de esta fase del desarrollo. Se exponen las disyuntivas que enfrentaron ambas organizaciones para definir su posición, haciendo énfasis en los encuentros y desencuentros que les implicó. Se concluye que el esquema oficial de financiamiento confunde la revolvencia de los recursos financieros de altos índices de ganancia con el desarrollo. El Estado emplea su función reguladora para normalizar muy estrictamente la estructura y el funcionamiento financiero sin intervenir en las condiciones que establecen las entidades financieras con sus usuarios ni en el impacto que estas condiciones generan. Las organizaciones sociales tendrán que crear una estrategia propia de desarrollo, asegurando contar con la existencia de mecanismos especiales que les permitirán tener recursos económicos y humanos especializados conectados con el resto de los vínculos de desarrollo. Así podrán ofrecer opciones de desarrollo adaptadas a las necesidades y posibilidades de sus socios y miembros.Abstract: This article explains the manner in which two related organizations try to place themselves in the governmental rural financing scheme. The paper outlines the elements that promote or prevent the organizations’ appropriation of this development phase. It presents the dilemmas both organizations faced, in order to define their position, highlighting the agreements and disagreements due to the different priorities and ways of working. Finally, the article concludes that the official financing scheme confuses the «revolving» financial resources that have high profit indexes, with the development. The State uses its regulatory function to rule in a very strict way the structure and the financial performance but does not intervene in the conditions the financial institutions establish with their customers and the impact these conditions generate. The social organizations must generate their own strategy of development and ensure the existence of special mechanisms, which allow them to have specialized resources, both economic and human, connected with the rest of the development links. This way they will be able to offer suitable development options that meet the needs and possibilities of their associates and members.Résumé : Cet article explique comment deux organisations jumelles essaient de s’insérer à l’intérieur d’un schéma gouvernemental de financement rural. L’accent est mis sur les éléments qui facilitent et/ou empêchent ces organisations de s’approprier cette phase de développement. Y sont exposés les dilemmes auxquels ces deux organisations ont dû faire face pour définir leur position, mettant en lumière les accords et désaccords soulevés par les différentes priorités et manières de travailler. Enfin, l’article conclut que le schéma officiel de financement confond les ressources financières à haut niveau de profit et le développement. L’État emploie sa fonction régulatrice pour définir de manière très stricte la structure et la performance financière mais n’intervient ni dans les conditions que les institutions financières établissent avec leurs clients ni dans leur impact. Les organisations sociales doivent créer leur propre stratégie de développement et assurer l’existence de mécanismes spéciaux qui leur permettent d’avoir des ressources spécialisées, tant économiques qu’humaines, en relation avec le reste des moyens de développement. De cette manière elles pourront offrir à leurs associés et membres différentes options de croissance correspondant à leurs besoins et possibilités.

Peraturan Bupati Nomor 5 Tahun 2010 tentang Peraturan Penegakan Syariat Islam dalam pemakaian busana Islam di Kabupaten Aceh Barat. PERBUP ini adalah menjadi pokok permasalahan yang utama dalam penelitian ini. Penerapan peraturan tersebut menjadi kontradiksi di kehidupan masyarakat dalam memahami dan mematuhi kebijakan tersebut. Permasalahan lain dalam qanun syariat islam yang diterapkan di Provinsi Aceh dan khususnya Kabupaten Aceh Barat adalah belum diberlakukannya aturan kepada Warga Negara Asing yang melanggar norma-norma syariat islam. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi dan menganalisis permasalahan sosial yang dialami masyarakat terkait pelaksanaan peraturan Syariat Islam di masyarakat Aceh Barat. Pendekatan penelitian ini menggunakan kualitatif. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa permasalahan sosial penerapan Syariat Islam di Kabupaten di Aceh Barat pasca pemberlakukan peraturan Bupati Nomor 5 Tahun 2010 belum berjalan secara maksimal karena terjadi peningkatan kasus-kasus yang signifikan dari tahun 2011-2015. Pelanggaran-pelanggaran terhadap penerapan syariat Islam tersebut diantaranya disebabkan oleh kelemahan sosialisasi ke masyarakat dalam penerapan kebijakan dan kurangnya anggaran operasional, sehingga implementasi kebijakan tidak berjalan dengan baik. Selain itu ada juga intervensi kelompok aktivis Hak Asasi Manusia yang meyakini bahwa hukum syariat Islam yang diterapkan di Aceh adalah melanggar HAM.Regent Regulation No. 5 of 2010 on the Regulation of Enforcement of Islamic Sharia in the use of Islamic dress in the District of West Aceh.

In addition there are also intervention groups of human rights activists who believe that Islamic sharia law applied in Aceh is a violation of human rights.
