Wabak COVID-19 telah menular di seluruh dunia selama hampir dua tahun. Penularan wabak ini telah menyebabkan Pertubuhan Kesihatan Sedunia (WHO) mengisytiharkan COVID-19 sebagai pandemik kerana telah menjejaskan pelbagai sektor terutamanya ekonomi, sosial, pendidikan dan sektor kesihatan tanpa sempadan. Keadaan ini turut memberi kesan kepada institusi dan pusat zakat apabila kadar kemiskinan dalam kalangan pelajar dan lingkungan mereka yang terjejas oleh masalah kesihatan meningkat. Pada masa yang sama, jumlah mereka yang masih tercicir daripada menerima bantuan zakat tetap berlaku. Selain itu, perekodan data golongan asnaf yang kurang efisen juga menjadi antara masalah yang dihadapi dalam penyaluran bantuan. Hal ini memerlukan institusi dan pusat zakat merangka strategi baharu dalam mendepani pandemik ini. Justeru, kajian ini menganalisis strategi Unit Zakat Sedekah dan Wakaf UiTM Cawangan Kelantan (UZSW) dalam pengurusan zakat bagi mendepani pandemik COVID-19. Kajian ini menggunakan kaedah kualitatif. Data dikumpul daripada data sekunder, iaitu laporan tahunan bagi mendapatkan data berkaitan UZSW daripada tahun 2020 hingga 2021. Data primer turut digunakan melalui kaedah temubual bagi mendapatkan maklumat yang tepat mengenai pengagihan zakat asnaf pelajar. Metode observasi juga turut digunakan bagi memahami gerak kerja UZSW dalam memastikan pengagihan zakat dilaksanakan secara efektif. Hasilnya, beberapa tema ditakrifkan daripada data sebelum dianalisis berdasarkan kaedah analisis kandungan.

Praying is not only a duty, but it has its own wisdom and philosophy that must be concerned by every Muslim. This article analyzes the views of Shah Wali Allah on the secrets of praying based on Hadith of the Prophet. This study uses qualitative methods through library research and document analysis on the book of Hujjah Allah al-Balighah and also books related to secret of solat. The study found that there are three principles of prayer, namely the heart bowing to Allah SWT, performing to Him and glorifying Him. These three principles are part of the main character that every Muslim needs to achieve happiness. Therefore, Shah Wali Allah has explained in depth the philosophy of solat based on the Prophetic traditions of the Prophet. Praying is one of worship that must be done to subdue the nature of the animal (bahimiyyah) and thus produce the nature of the angel (malakiyyah). ABSTRAK Ibadat solat bukan sekadar dilaksanakan untuk memenuhi tuntutan syarak semata-mata, namun ia mempunyai hikmah dan falsafah tersendiri yang perlu dihayati oleh setiap Muslim. Artikel ini menganalisa pandangan Shah Wali Allah terhadap rahsia solat yang terdapat dalam Hadis Nabi SAW. Artikel ini menggunakan kaedah kualitatif melalui kajian kepustakaan dan analisis dokumen terhadap kitab Hujjah Allah al-Balighah serta buku-buku berkaitan falsafah ibadat solat. Hasil kajian mendapati bahawa terdapat tiga prinsip ibadat solat, iaitu hati tunduk kepada Allah SWT, bertawajjuh kepadaNya dan mengagungkanNya. Ketiga-tiga prinsip ini merupakan sebahagian daripada akhlak utama yang perlu diraih oleh setiap Muslim dalam mencapai kebahagiaan.    Sehubungan itu, Shah Wali Allah telah menjelaskan secara mendalam falsafah ibadat solat berdasarkan maksud Hadis-hadis Nabi SAW. Ibadat solat merupakan salah satu ibadat yang perlu dilaksanakan untuk menundukkan sifat kebinatangan (bahimiyyah) seterusnya membuahkan sifat kemalaikatan (malakiyyah).

Organizations or government agencies are constantly faced with various forms of threats either from within or outside the environment and these threats can affect the performance, productivity and future of an organization. Today, the average threat to an organization stems from individuals within the organization itself and in turn involves other members who damage the identity of the government organization. Typically, these threats are closely linked to issues of ethics and integrity. Neglect of these two principles can open up opportunities for malpractice, corruption, misconduct and abuse of power in an organization. This article explains the practice of excellent work culture in an organization as stipulated by Islam and applied in the current days. The article exemplifies how Islam stresses on the application of excellent work culture and moral values to be practiced in strengthening an organization. The main purpose of this writing is to identify the elements of work culture in Islam and the characteristics of excellent work culture that every Muslim should know. Apart from that, this writing also aims to describe the challenges in implementing Islamic work culture. In the era of globalization, portraying good work ethics among Muslims is essential. Good work ethics are not only about being a diligent, persistent and loyal workforce, but it is also about being a workforce who integrates Islamic values into their daily life, which do not derail from the values as prescribed in the Qur'an and As-Sunnah. This article also explains how the concepts, conditions, ethics and characteristics of work culture in Islam remain relevant and practicable in today’s society. The basis of work culture for Muslim is to seek the pleasure of Allah SWT. The individual’s connection with God shapes their ethical work culture to be extra careful and diligent in their work practices. They will strive to do their best to obtain the pleasure of God and foster good relationships among their colleagues within the organization. This article also highlights the need for every Muslim to embrace Shariahcompliant practices in all aspects of their work. This writing instrumented the qualitative research as its methodology by conducting a library study of the sources of the Quran and hadith as well as scientific materials such as journal articles, reference books from religious scholars related to the scope of the study topic. The results of this writing can be used as a reference and guidance to increase the level of awareness, open the minds of every Muslim as well as remind each party to fulfill their rights and responsibilities towards every job entrusted to them. Work in the Islamic concept is often associated to the term charity which has a wider scope than simply working for profit or wages. It is hoped that this writing can be used as a guideline or standard for all employees and organizations to work in line with Islamic requirements.

Critical thinking is a very important intellectual tool that could help a person form arguments, determine the credibility of sources, analyse presumptions or make decisions in various contexts. Hence, this study intended to examine the Western and Islamic critical thinking concepts as well as its significance according to the al-Quran and the views of scholars. The library research method was used extensively for collecting and analysing data, which was sourced from literature by philosophers, psychologists and Islamic scientists, especially those involved in the cognitive field. The conceptual framework was built using the content analysis method. According on the analysis, the importance of Islamic critical thinking based on the al-Quran and views of scholars in the cognitive field were extensively elaborated to assist in the practice of Islamic critical thinking.  The study found similarities and differences between Islamic and Western critical thinking. The similarities are from the rational utilization aspect and the difference is from the value of truth aspect, whereby Islamic critical thinking accepts divine deliverance (wahyu) as the main source of reference when thinking so that the product of thinking eventually becomes the absolute truth. Hence, the major significance of Islamic critical thinking is to enhance the faith (iman) and piousness (takwa) towards Allah SWT by contemplating and examining nature. At the same time, critical thinking helps a person to face contemporary challenges and solve problems related to every aspect of life. Moreover, critical thinking activities are greatly demanded in Islam so that the mind bestowed by Allah SWT is not neglected and is used properly without transgressing HIS divine deliverance (wahyu).
