Each religion has its own institution and ways of dealing with all the religious-related matters in the community. For the Muslim community, the mosque, or known as "Masjid" in Arabic, is a place of worship for performing prayers and other religious-related activities. In conducting those activities, mosques usually receive funding from public donations, fundraising, "waqaf", the government and many more. Managing a mosque fund is crucial in order to build trust among the public, and simultaneously safeguard the mosque’s financial resources. Therefore, it is important for each mosque to adopt good financial management practices in managing funds effectively. The data for this study was collected through a questionnaire distributed to 23 respondents from 14 mosques in the district of Kuala Nerus, Terengganu, to explore their financial management practices. The descriptive analysis surprisingly shows that 79% of the mosques still use a manual system in managing their funds instead of a computerized accounting system. It is timely to develop a customized accounting system to cater the needs of mosques’ management to set up a systematic and efficient fund management.

Penelitian ini merupakan jenis penelitian studi literatur dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif. Data diperoleh dari berbagai sumber referensi baik jurnal, pernyataan para ahli, maupun referensi dari media. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pemerintah Indonesia dalam sistem akuntansinya masih berdasarkan Peraturan Pemerintah Nomor 24 Tahun 2005 yaitu basis kas menuju akrual (cash toward accrual).

Hal tersebut mendorong pemerintah pada tahun 2010, melalui Komite Standar Akuntansi Pemerintahan menerbitkan standar akuntansi pemerintahan berbasis akrual yang ditetapkan melalui Peraturan Pemerintah Nomor 71 tahun 2010 tentang Standar Akuntansi Pemerintahan menggantikan Peraturan Pemerintah Nomor 24 tahun 2005. Pemerintah Indonesia telah melaksanakan reformasi di bidang akuntansi dengan keharusan menerapan akuntansi berbasis akrual. Penggunaan basis akrual merupakan salah satu ciri dari praktik manajemen keuangan modern di sektor publik yang bertujuan untuk memberikan informasi yang lebih transparan. Namun kenyataannya penerapan sistem akuntansi berbasis akrual tersebut masih banyak kendala pada sektor sumber daya manusianya. Kata kunci :  Basis akrual, basis kas, sistem akuntansi pemerintahan

A will is a financial management instrument after one’s death. Majority of Muslims in Malaysia are aware and familiar with the term Islamic ‘will’. However, the number of Muslims who write a will is very low.  Studies have concluded, the reluctance factors to write a will were due to a) lack of knowledge, b) religious factor and c) financial obligation. Therefore, it is the interest of the researchers to investigate the relationships of these three contributing factors towards will adoption among urban Muslim community in Klang Valley. The paper adopts a quantitative method of research design, which utilises descriptive analysis, correlation analysis and regression analysis to analyse the raw data. The results show all the independent variables have positive relationship with the dependent variable, in particular a strong significant relationship for knowledge. Thus, the paper suggests that any Muslims who are aware and has knowledge should write a will regardless of their age. In addition, writing a will before one’s death provides a peace of mind to that person.

In 1989, 96 Liverpool Football Club supporters were killed at the Hillsborough Stadium in Sheffield. It was the biggest sporting disaster in British football. The original inquests returned a verdict of ‘accidental death’. For over 20 years the families of the 96 and the survivors campaigned against this verdict. In 2010 the government set up an Independent Panel with myself as its Chair. Its remit after consultation with the families and survivors was to access and analyse all the documents related to the disaster and its aftermath and to write a report to add to public understanding. The Panel’s Report was published in 2012 and led to the quashing of the original verdicts and the setting up of fresh inquests. After two years and the longest inquests in British legal history, the jury gave its determination of ‘unlawful killing’. Here I reflect theologically on the public and pastoral role of the Church of England and its mission to wider society.
