<p>This research examines the underlying motive of CSR implementation and design, according to maqasid al-sharia. A qualitative descriptive approach was used to obtain primary data through interviews with 5 CSR informants. Secondary data was collected from the public company’s annual report on the IDX in 2019. Data was sampled and examined using purposive and content analysis technique. The results showed that there are 2 motives in CSR, specifically social and economic. Furthermore, the economic motive is more dominant and expects provision of monetary feedback. Consequently, CSR becomes less effective and most programs do not follow the real stakeholders’ needs. The dignity of CSR needs to be regained by implementing maqasid al-sharia dimensions. There are 2 approaches used to implement CSR, including a support system that utilizes pressure. The transcendental approach initiates corporate actors through religious values from maqasid al-sharia, making the implementation more humanist and stakeholder-oriented.</p>

This study aimed to examine and explain the passages or propositions for the inquiry of veil use, some opinions of leading scholars, and to correct or refute some weak and controversial statements and interpretations related to veil and its law. This research employed qualitative-descriptive approach with content analysis technique and library research. The result shows that the veil is prescribed in Islam. This is based on the word of Allah in the Quran surah Al-Ahzab verse 59 which is interpreted by commentators among the companions and tabi'in as a command to cover the face. In the long story of ‘ifk, it is also mentioned that Aisyah covered her face. The scholars of schools (Hanafiyyah, Malikiyyah, Syafiiyyah, and Hanabilah), even though they disagree whether covering the face is obligatory or sunnah, they agree that veil is something recommended, specifically at the time when it is feared of triggering tribulation in society due to showing off the faces of women. Some commentators also hold that they must cover their faces as they emphasize in their commentaries. Some interpretations or statements related to veil as well as its law are weak. For example, the interpretation that the use of veil that prevailed in Arab societies was a tradition for certain societies is such a fallacious statement. Considering the existing history, the previous Arab communities which were commonly called the jahiliyyah community were ignorant about covering, let alone the veil.

John Taylor complains that the Kalam cosmological argument gives the appearance of being a swift and simple demonstration of the existence of a Creator of the universe, whereas in fact a convincing argument involving the premiss that the universe began to exist is very difficult to achieve. But Taylor's proffered defeaters of the premisses of the philosophical arguments for the beginning of the universe are themselves typically undercut due to Taylor's inadvertence to alternatives open to the defender of the Kalam arguments. With respect to empirical confirmation of the universe's beginning Taylor is forced into an anti-realist position on the Big Bang theory, but without sufficient warrant for singling out the theory as non-realistic. Therefore, despite the virtue of simplicity of form, the Kalam cosmological argument has not been defeated by Taylor's all too swift refutation.
