Studies explore Muḍārabah-based Shariah frameworks for Afghan Islamic banking, Islamic financing mechanisms for SME-driven financial inclusion in Tajikistan, the comparative jurisprudence of wiping over socks, waṣiyyah as an instrument of intergenerational wealth transmission, the influence of the five major legal maxims on Indonesian economic fatāwā, nushūz in comparative Afghan-Malaysian family law, the Qur'anic methodology in countering hoarding across psychological and social dimensions, Sadd al-Dharāʾiʿ and the maqṣad of life preservation through Maliki fatāwā, maqāṣid-grounded governance of zakāh institutions, jurisprudential and legal responses to war damages in Sudan, Islamic ethics among university students through thematic analysis, and the jurisprudential and societal implications of Nikāḥ al-Shighār in Afghanistan. The issue reflects sustained scholarly engagement with both foundational legal methodology and urgent contemporary challenges facing Muslim communities across conflict zones, transitional economies, and established institutional contexts.
