Recent reported cases and news on children and the Internet reflect the vulnerability of children when they are online, especially with in using the new medium of social networking websites such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. The criminal justice system faces the dilemma when children break the law, as children are considered as minors who are not legally responsible for their actions. In most cases, the society tend to focus on protecting children from neglect, abuse or harms but often overlooked of protecting children who are involved in harming or causing injury to other people or cause damage to property. It is equally important to address the growing concern on children‘s exposure to usage of the Internet. Thus, the question such as, can the child‘s wrongs on the Internet be considered as a de-linquent act, namely possible wrongful acts conducted by children that would otherwise be an offence if committed by an adult, is ex-plored. The legal status and minimum age of criminal responsibility in Malaysia are also examined. In addition, the Shariah views will be discussed briefly. Then, the paper explores the problems and challenges face by children in using social media websites. Finally, the paper suggests that the government and the community in particular parents and teachers have vital roles to play in ensuring that the poli-cies and rules provide mechanism not only to protect children but also to empower them as a citizen of the country. This may be done by advocating legal awareness and educating the children to be more responsible in their acts online and uphold respect in law, ethics and morality.

Perundangan Islam menganjurkan seluruh umat manusia untuk saling menghormati di antara satu sama lain walaupun mempunyai kepercayaan yang berbeza. Fakta ini jelas sebagaimana yang dinyatakan oleh Allah SAW di dalam surah alAn’am ayat 108. Walaupun Islam jelas membawa mesej keharmonian, perbuatan penghinaan ke atas Rasulullah SAW tetap juga berlaku sehingga ke hari ini walaupun manusia pada era ini sudah dianggap mempunyai tamadun yang tinggi. Apa yang menyedihkan, perbuatan ini bukan hanya dilakukan oleh masyarakat bukan Islam sahaja, namun ia juga turut dilakukan oleh masyarakat Islam itu sendiri dan tidak terkecuali masyarakat Islam di negara kita. Justeru, timbul persoalan adakah mereka yang melakukan perbuatan ini menyedari implikasinya dari sudut undang-undang jenayah Islam dan Undang-Undang sedia ada di Malaysia. Oleh yang demikian, kertas kerja yang menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif ini akan merungkai persoalan tersebut dengan memberikan penerangan yang jelas terhadap implikasi dan hukuman terhadap perbuatan menghina Rasulullah SAW dari sudut undang-undang Jenayah Islam dan Undang-Undang di Malaysia. Hasil kajian mendapati bahawa undang-undang terutamanya di Malaysia perlu lebih tegas dalam menangani perbuatan ini bagi menjaga sensitiviti umat Islam dan mengekalkan keharmonian agama. Peruntukan khusus dan jelas berkaitan penghinaan terhadap Rasulullah SAW serta penalti yang terperinci juga perlu diwujudkan di dalam perundangan negara.

Over the last three decades, the Islamic finance industry has grown at an exponential rate, with current market sizes ranging from USD1.66 trillion to USD2.1 trillion. It is predicted to grow to furthermore than USD4 trillion by the end of 2025 (Islamic Commercial Law Report 2018). This rapid progress should be accompanied by IFIs' financial and non-financial disclosure to shareholders, existing and potential investors, and capital providers of the institution's economic resources, claims on those resources, and any transactions or events that may affect them. Disclosure is one method of disseminating information to investors in order to be transparent, which can aid them in making better investment decisions. This study investigates the significance of Islamic Financial Institutions' (IFIs') Environment, Social, and Governance (ESG) disclosure and its relevance in the eyes of Maqasid al-Syariah. It is maintained that, while the environment, social, and governance components of business highlighted in ESG disclosure are within the scope of Islamic law, they are not prioritised by IFIs. This is demonstrated by IFIs' weak ESG disclosure, as well as a lack of awareness and voluntariness in the topic. As a result, this article demonstrates the good motivations and effects of ESG disclosure for IFIs.

Sustainable solid waste management contributes to three important aspects of sustainable development, namely, the environment, and economics, and social well-being. Electronic waste (also known as e-waste) is a type of household hazardous waste that will contribute to environmental pollution if it is managed unsustainably, as its disposal in landfills will contribute toxic substances to the landfill leachate, which subsequently could adversely affect the environment. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to analyse the sustainable household e-waste management in Malaysia from a legal perspective by employing library research methodology. The lack of a legislation in respect of household e-waste management is identified as one of the challenges, which has caused difficulty in managing household e-waste. Hence, there is a need to improve the existing legal framework to enhance the sustainable management of household e-waste in Malaysia.
