The reception of Thomistic political and legal philosophy is considered with respect to what is called ‘political liberalism’. The appeal to a hypothetical state of nature should be rejected, as it misconstrues the social nature of human beings. Aquinas’ account of the origin of political society starts from an interpretation of human nature. On this basis one can account for human rights, the importance of the right to religious liberty, the family as the basic cell of society, civil society as including subsidiary authorities, the importance of private property, and the nature and role of freedom. A key question for the continued flourishing of a free society is what practically enables persons to govern for the genuine good of others.

Such rapid development of science and technology lately resulted in such rapid changes in the social life of the human culture, one of which is medical field. But although there has been no progress there may be some problems that have not been solved by human beings, such as the discovery of drugs or a potent bidder to cure deadly diseases such AS AIDS, cancer, and other malignant diseases. These deadly diseases are a reason for someone to end his life from having to endure a long time ill one of them by asking for family assistance to end his life, which in medicine is called euthanasia. This research aims to determine how the position of passive euthanasia and birthright position for applicants of euthanasia passive according to Islamic law when viewed in terms of maqāṣid al-Syarī'ah. This research is done by collecting the library materials in the form of books, encyclopedia, and scientific works related to this discussion. The results of this study gave the answer that stopping the treatment, or releasing the organ and respiratory aids from the sick or euthanasia passive the law may but only in the case of the sick suffer the death of the brainstem. Because while using these tools is contrary to sharia teachings among them, postponing the management of dead and its funeral without emergency reasons, postponing the division of inheritance and resigning the time of his wife. Therefore, the birthright position for the heir or the family that asks or plea for passive euthanasia is not hindered by the heir. Because the passive euthanasia in this case is not classified as an act of murder.

The paper investigates how the digital technology’ advancement has affected our communal being and what could be done to address these challenges. In doing the research, I employ qualitative research to gather the data by documentation, observation, and interview technique with willing and selected informants. My study finds that excessive usage and inability to control the technology endanger human beings, make them submissive to the technology’ logic, and divide community. Community resilience can be achieved if every family units in the neighbourhood are strong and stable. The spread of the COVID-19 pandemic enhances the widespread use of digital technology in many things, such as the learning process, economic transactions; it has changed the social structure. Despite bringing new opportunities, digital technology also presents significant challenges on issues such as gender relations in the family, patterns of parent-child relationships, and even on community health and cohesion. Digital technology might influence the shift of habitus. Still, parents and educational institutions also have the opportunities to contend the digital technological-based habitus and become the axis for the formation of a new habitus for people to navigate their lives guided by love, compassion, and respect.

<p>Reviewing the history of Muhammad’s behavior and business ethics before being appointed as a prophet is an interesting study, because Muhammad’s behavior and business ethics were based on the study of Quran verses. Once appointed to be prophet at the age of 40, the prophet Muhammad’s<br />life was guided by the revelations of the Qur’an which came down to him. Meanwhile, before being appointed to the prophet, his life was purely as ordinary human beings, struggling with the social reality of ignorant people. His profession as a shepherd and merchant were experiences that he gained during adolescence age. Although Halima al Sa’diyah and Abu Talib are poor but both of them had a big influence in shaping his personal character. Therefore, this study is aimed to determine what factors were becoming the background of Muhammad to be perpetrator of business and<br />how the ethics business is done to develop his business. The results obtained from this study show that the factors that encourage Muhammad became businessmen during the time before appointed to be prophet include geographical factors, economic factors, family encouragement factor, and factor of married to Khadija. While the business ethics include being honest, trustworthy, accurate in weighing, avoid the trick, not hoard the goods, do not do deceit, and uphold mutual benefit<br />principle between the seller and buyer. Experience and ethics that made by Muhammad in the business world before he was appointed to the prophet were legitimized by the Prophet Muhammad as his sunnah after he was appointed to prophet, beside some sunnahs made and carried out at specified time after bearing the Prophet.</p>

Violence against women (VAW) continues to exist as a pervasive, structural,systematic, and institutionalized violation of women’s basic human rights (UNDivision of Advancement for Women, 2006). It cuts across the boundaries of age, race, class, education, and religion which affect women of all ages and all backgrounds in every corner of the world. Such violence is used to control and subjugate women by instilling a sense of insecurity that keeps them “bound to the home, economically exploited and socially suppressed” (Mathu, 2008, p. 65). It is estimated that one out of every five women worldwide will be abused during her lifetime with rates reaching up to 70 percent in some countries (WHO, 2005). Whether this abuse is perpetrated by the state and its agents, by family members, or even by strangers, VAW is closely related to the regulation of sexuality in a gender specific (patriarchal) manner. This regulation is, on the one hand, maintained through the implementation of strict cultural, communal, and religious norms, and on the other hand, through particular legal measures that sustain these norms. Therefore, religious institutions, the media, the family/tribe, cultural networks, and the legal system continually disciplinewomen’s sexuality and punish those women (and in some instances men) who have transgressed or allegedly contravened the social boundaries of ‘appropriateness’ as delineated by each society. Such women/men may include lesbians/gays, women who appear ‘too masculine’ or men who appear ‘too feminine,’ women who try to exercise their rights freely or men who do not assert their rights as ‘real men’ should, women/men who have been sexually assaulted or raped, and women/men who challenge male/older male authority.

Abstract. Educational environment is needed in the education process, because the educational environment serves to support the process of teaching and learning, a comfortable environment and support for the implementation of an education is needed. The environment is distinguished into the biological environment, the non-living natural environment, the artificial environment and the social environment. Education is one of the first obligations for parents. In Islam, the person most responsible for the education of the child is the parent. The family is the "smallest people" who have leaders and members, has a division of work and work, and the rights and obligations of each member. The best exemplary education for children is if both parents are able to connect their child with the example of Rasûlullâh SAW, as uswah of all mankind. A positive school environment is a school environment that provides facilities and motivation for religious education. Keywords. Environment, Education   Abstrak.
