“…Sharia or Islamic law has become a discussion in foreign countries, including in matters relating to politics. For westerners, sharia is considered equal for all Muslims, even though sharia itself is a variation that occurs due to the interpretation of the Qur'an which is different from the process that involves interpretation techniques, judgments, knowledge and even doctrinal studies (Possamai et al, 2017).…”

The terms that arise regarding the Sharia economy are common in the community, especially in Aceh Province where this area is known as the Veranda of Mecca city. With the rapid development of Sharia understanding, a qualified understanding is needed by the community regarding terms related to the Islamic economy. The solution that can be offered is strengthening community understanding regarding the intralingual translation of Sharia terms. This research was a descriptive-qualitative research. The data was compiled from test results in the form of intralingual translation regarding 10 sharia terms to 91 purposive selected early semester students of the economics faculty from May 15 to June 12 in 2023 at Samudra University which was carried out online with the help of Google forms and distributed via the WhatsApp application. The research data that had been analyzed will be translated which could be classified as a good translation or not. The results of the research that obtained the majority of correct answer ranges regarding the understanding of Sharia terms. This underlies that the term sharia for students in Aceh is well understood so that the development of the sharia system can be in harmony with the insights of the people

“…Even though an extensive body of research has observed the international media coverage of Islam, far less attention has been devoted to the media coverage of Sharia. Current studies on media and Sharia have been undertaken in Western media settings (Bowe and Hoewe 2016;Hoewe et al 2014;Korteweg 2008;Mora 2013;Possamai et al 2013Possamai et al , 2017. While in the context of Aceh, most previous studies on media and Sharia were also constrained to specific events or aspects of Sharia, for example, caning (Amri 2019), the inclusion of non-Muslims in Qanun Jinayat (Fitri 2015), and tight clothes raids by Sharia police (Maulina 2019), which could potentially limit a broader picture of Sharia in the media.…”

Aceh is the only province in Indonesia with an exceptional degree of autonomy to implement Sharia. This paper explores how Serambi Indonesia—the leading Acehnese local newspaper—framed the implementation of Sharia in the region. This study employed content analysis of the Sharia coverage in Aceh from 2012 to 2020 using a hybrid approach, combining issue-specific and generic frames. The results revealed the four identified frames: Sharia codification, deviance from Sharia, desirable Sharia enforcement, and Islamic morality. among those frames, the deviance from Sharia was much preferred. The frame prominence was more prevalent after Qanun Jinayat (Islamic Criminal Bylaw) took into effect in Aceh. It was also given more prominence on the front page than on other pages. However, other frames made up 60% of the articles, implying that the Acehnese local newspaper positively represented the implementation of Sharia in Aceh while highlighting Sharia problems surrounding its enforcement. These findings exemplify the use of a hybrid approach to better examine the media frames, support the effect of critical events on changes in the media frames, and confirm the different prominence of the frame based on the page placement.
