 Arabic usually use the word al-usrahor al-‘ailahto refer to family. However, the Qur’an also employs some different words to describe family, namely ahl, ‘asyirah, rahtu,alu, qurbaand ruknu. This article aims to examine the word ahl. This is based on the fact that ahlis the most frequent word mentioned theQur’an to refer to the family. Using the semantic analysis proposed by ‘Aisya bint al-Syati’, this article shows that the original meaning of the word ahlis “entitled”and “appropriate”.Itscontextual meaning, however,might refer to the people of the book (ahl al-Kitab), residents (al-sakin), followers (qawm al-Nabī), people who are entitled or reserve the right(al-mustahaq), the core family (usrah), and clans or extended family (‘ailah). This article contributes to the ideal of building a family. By referring to the meaning of ahl,the family should be correctly and appropriately built so as to achieve happiness.

To the ancient Greeks, democracy meant gathering in public and debating laws set by a randomly selected assembly of several hundred citizens. To the Icelandic Vikings, democracy meant meeting every summer in a field to discuss issues until consensus was reached. Our contemporary representative democracies are very different. Modern parliaments are gated and guarded, and it seems as if only certain people — with the right suit, accent, wealth, and connections — are welcome. Diagnosing what is wrong with representative government and aiming to recover some of the lost openness of ancient democracies, this book presents a new paradigm of democracy in which power is genuinely accessible to ordinary citizens. This book favors the ideal of “representing and being represented in turn” over direct-democracy approaches. Supporting a fresh nonelectoral understanding of democratic representation, the book recommends centering political institutions around the “open mini-public” — a large, jury-like body of randomly selected citizens gathered to define laws and policies for the polity, in connection with the larger public. It also defends five institutional principles as the foundations of an open democracy: participatory rights, deliberation, the majoritarian principle, democratic representation, and transparency. The book demonstrates that placing ordinary citizens, rather than elites, at the heart of democratic power is not only the true meaning of a government of, by, and for the people, but also feasible and, today more than ever, urgently needed.

The people of West Sumatra, who have been adhering to the Minangkabau matrilineal cultural tradition, are currently experiencing cultural decay. Many studies speculate that the unique Minangkabau culture will not be too much disturbed by the influx of globalization because in essence the only part that will be eroded is the peripheral part, while the core will remain preserved for all time. This study photographed the people of Tanjung Raya District based on existing family typologies, then saw a shift in norms passed on to teenagers using the six Hofstede cultural dimensions. This study surveyed five types of families with calculations using a simple addition operation. The results of the questionnaire were made high and low criteria, then presented in cobweb graphical form. The assessment indicators are based on the six dimensions of Hofstede's culture. Shifting the teachings of exemplary teachings from Minangkabau culture is determined using the ANOVA test. The results of this study are to map the portrait of Minangkabau culture according to Hofstede and a portrait of each of Hofstede's dimensions in each type of family in Tanjung Raya District. From there, it can be seen how far away the approach of the values taught by the family towards Minangkabau culture is approaching.

AbstractThis study departs from a juridical confusion regarding the age limit of marriage with other provisions regarding age. Article 7 Paragraph 1 of Law No. 1 of 1974 concerning Marriage, states that marriage is only permitted if the male has reached the age of 19 (nineteen) years and the female has reached the age of 16 (sixteen) years. Law Number 23 the Year 2002 concerning Child Protection states that what is called a 'child' is a person who is under 18 years of age. As for Law Number 26 of 2000 concerning the Human Rights Court, it is explained that an adult category is a person who is 18 years old. The Marriage Age Maturing Program (PUP) offers a solution, namely the ideal age of marriage seen from various perspectives is a minimum of 20 years for women and 25 years for men. Departing from this, this study seeks to explore why the need for an ideal marriage age limit according to Maqasid Sharia, as well as how to analyze Maqasid Sharia against the provisions of the ideal age limit of marriage in Mating the Age of Marriage (PUP). To answer this question, this study uses Maqasid Sharia theory with the basic assumptions of the theory, namely the protection of religion, soul, reason, descent, and property. The normative-empirical approach in this study refers to the study of the formal aspects of the Marriage Age Maturity (PUP) program.This study found that the existence of an ideal marriage age limit in Maqasid Sharia theory can have a variety of positive impacts when applied. The positive impact is in the form of increasing the ideal age of marriage; increasing family welfare; improved education; increased understanding related to the importance of the ideal age of marriage; and parents increasingly understand the importance of the ideal age of marriage when they want to marry their children. The provisions of the ideal marriage limit in Maturing Marriage Age (PUP) are at least 20 years for women and 25 years for men. Sharia Maqasid's analysis results in this study indicate that the ideal age provisions applied in the Marriage Age Maturing (PUP) program are the right solution in creating a good Sharia Maqasid family. The application of these provisions can regulate relations between men and women; look after offspring; creating sakinah, mawaddah, warahmah families; maintain lineage; maintain diversity in the family; set the pattern of good relationships in the family and regulate financial aspects in the family.Keywords: Maqasid Sharia, Maturity Maturity (PUP). AbstrakPenelitian ini berangkat dari sebuah kerancuan yuridis mengenai batas usia perkawinan dengan ketentuan lain mengenai usia. Pasal 7 Ayat 1 UU Nomor 1 Tahun 1974 tentang Perkawinan, menyebutkan bahwa perkawinan hanya diizinkan apabila pihak laki-laki telah mencapai umur 19 (sembilan belas) tahun dan pihak perempuan sudah mencapai usia 16 (enam belas) tahun. Undang-Undang Nomor 23 Tahun 2002 tentang Perlindungan Anak menyebutkan bahwa yang disebut dengan ‘anak’ adalah orang yang masih berusia di bawah 18 tahun. Adapun dalam Undang-Undang Nomor 26 Tahun 2000 tentang Pengadilan Hak Asasi Manusia, dijelaskan bahwa kategori dewasa adalah orang yang berumur 18 tahun. Program Pendewasaan Usia Perkawinan (PUP) menawarkan solusi, yaitu usia ideal perkawinan dilihat dari berbagai perspektif adalah minimal 20 tahun bagi perempuan dan 25 tahun bagi laki-laki. Berangkat dari hal tersebut, penelitian ini berusaha menelusuri mengapa perlunya batas usia ideal perkawinan menurut Maqasid Syariah, serta bagaimana analisis Maqasid Syariah terhadap ketentuan batas usia ideal perkawinan dalam Pendewasaan Usia Perkawinan (PUP). Untuk menjawab pertanyaan tersebut, penelitian ini menggunakan teori Maqasid Syariah dengan asumsi dasar teori yaitu perlindungan terhadap agama, jiwa, akal, keturunan, dan harta. Pendekatan normatif-empiris dalam penelitian ini mengacu pada kajian aspek formal program Pendewasaan Usia Perkawinan (PUP).Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa adanya batas usia ideal perkawinan dalam teori Maqasid Syariah dapat memberikan berbagai dampak positif apabila diterapkan. Dampak positif tersebut berupa meningkatnya usia ideal perkawinan; meningkatnya keluarga sejahtera; meningkatnya pendidikan; meningkatnya pemahaman terkait pentingnya usia ideal perkawinan; serta orang tua semakin memahami pentingnya usia ideal perkawinan ketika hendak menikahkan anaknya. Adapun ketentuan batas ideal perkawinan dalam Pendewasaan Usia Perkawinan (PUP) yaitu minimal 20 tahun bagi perempuan dan 25 tahun bagi laki-laki. Hasil analisis Maqasid Syariah dalam penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa ketentuan usia ideal yang diterapkan dalam program Pendewasaan Usia Perkawinan (PUP) merupakan solusi tepat dalam menciptakan Maqasid Syariah keluarga yang baik. Penerapan ketentuan tersebut mampu mengatur hubungan antara laki-laki dan perempuan; menjaga keturunan; menciptakan keluarga sakinah, mawaddah, warahmah; menjaga garis keturunan; menjaga keberagamaan dalam keluarga; mengatur pola hubungan yang baik dalam keluarga dan mengatur aspek finansial dalam keluarga.

Severe congenital impairments in one child will affect the whole family, possibly for a generation if the child remains at home as an adult. Disability acquired in adult life will affect both partners as roles are gained or relinquished. For children this may result in a loss of parenting. The adjustment process to any psychological or personality changes may be very painful, particularly if children have no one outside the family to provide informed support. Acquired illness or disability in children may have enormous consequences for siblings, the health of the parents and the whole fabric of family life, often resulting in family isolation. In some Asian families, the feeling that the extended family unit is self sufficient and able to provide care may conflict with the ideal of increasing independence fostered by the professionals, and limit the possibility of support from social workers or psychologists. The extended family may reduce the need for statutory support. The expectation that care will be provided to old people by their daughters or daughters-in-law may be frustrated if the younger generation of women are disabled or otherwise engaged, resulting in possible family strife or rejection.

Opening ParagraphThis paper first seeks to show how far the actual forms of the Konkomba family and household coincide with their forms as conceived by the people themselves. The second part (which will appear in a later number of this journal) analyses some of the functions of these units of organization. By function, I mean the relation of the household to certain aspects of Konkomba life: namely, the household as a unit of production and consumption, as a unit of social control, as a ritual unit, and so on. The term ‘household’ refers to the total group of persons living together in one compound (letʃeni), which is a cluster of round houses distributed about a central space and linked by a low wall (see Fig. I). The head of a household (letʃendaa) is the senior man, the husband and the father of the family that is the nucleus of the household. This may be an elementary or a polygynous family; or it may be an expanded family consisting of a number of brothers and their wives, sons, and unmarried daughters; or it may be an extended family, consisting of a man, his wives, their sons, sons' wives and children, and their unmarried daughters. To this nucleus other kin are added and it will be shown that these additional members are always either members of the minor lineage group of the household head or wives or widows of members.

Social media is currently not only used to communicate with friends but as a platform for business. This trend has been increasing since the Covid-19 pandemic, where more and more people are using it to buy and sell. However, there are doubts in running a business through social media, i.e., the absence of the right business strategy, understanding of business competition, and the personal characteristics of the people it needs. Therefore, this study aims to determine the ideal personal characteristics needed in running a social media-based business. Using qualitative research methods, data analysis from 20 interviews identifies twelve characters, six of which are critical to someone who has good potential to do business on social media and who can make the most of it. The suitability of an entrepreneur’s character and the demands of doing business on social media will lead to positive attitudes that are key to business success.

At all stages of the existence of the state, one of its main tasks is the care and protection of the health of the people and the preservation of its gene pool. The solution to this problem is impossible without the direct par-ticipation of the state in creating a full-fledged and healthy family, as well as taking direct measures to prevent the birth of children with congenital dis-eases and diseases transmitted by inheritance, which is expressed in the legal regulation of medical examination of persons entering into marriage. We analyze the legislation of foreign countries. We state two approaches to regulating this issue, where some states adhere to the position that premarital medical examination is a right, not an obligation, while others hold the exact opposite opinion. We establish contradictions between the norms of family law and the norms of the family code with the norms of federal regulations. We identify the reasons for the lack of a mechanism for exercising the right to free medical examination of persons entering into marriage. Taking into account foreign legislation and on the basis of the identified problems of the implementation and protection of the right to free medical examination of persons entering into marriage, we propose amendments and additions to the Family Code of the Russian Federation.
