Nurul Wahida Aprilya — 2025-02-22

High employee turnover is a major challenge for organizations, as it can impact productivity and long-term stability. In this context, an Islamic values-based approach offers a potential solution but is rarely addressed in research. This study aims to analyze the relationship between individuals and organizations in an Islamic perspective and identify factors that influence employee retention. This research method uses secondary data through literature review related to the individual-organization relationship, especially in relation to the concepts of Person-Organization Fit, Islamic Work Ethics (IWE), and Psychological Contract. The results show that individual and organizational relationships based on the values of honesty, trustworthiness, and fairness can strengthen employee loyalty and improve retention. On the other hand, conventional factors such as fair compensation, job satisfaction, and a positive work environment also proved to have a significant effect on employees' decision to remain in the organization. The Islamic perspective further emphasizes the importance of Islamic Organizational Commitment and the concept of The Celestial Management, which integrates spiritual and sharia values to create a work environment that supports well-being and long-term commitment. This research provides new insights into how Islamic values can be implemented in employee retention strategies to sustainably strengthen the individual-organization relationship.

Mathias Raihan Narayan Hutauruk — 2025-03-22

Miswak and toothpaste represent two separate methods for preserving oral hygiene; miswak is favored in Islam, whereas toothpaste is favored in the modern period. While both offer advantages, there is limited research that compares their medical effects and alignment with the Sunnah. This study aims to examine their function and relevance in promoting oral health. The main objective of this study is to answer the question of whether the function of miswak has been replaced by toothpaste or if miswak still has a unique role that is important for dental health and the spiritual identity of Muslims. The methods used include analysis of hadith texts and a review of scientific literature related to the benefits of miswak and toothpaste from a health perspective. The results of the study indicate that miswak contains active substances such as natural fluoride, antibacterials, and antioxidants that are beneficial for dental and gum health, which are also found in modern toothpaste. Although toothpaste offers practicality, miswak still has irreplaceable value, both in terms of health and spirituality. The combination of the two is recommended as an integrative approach in maintaining dental health according to Islamic teachings and modern health needs.
