1. Ahmad Mahmudi (Indonesia)
   What are the strengths and challenges of applying a transdisciplinary research framework based on the New Maqasid in analyzing contemporary social phenomena?

2. Efridani Lubis
   Would you please explain the limitation in the new maqasid approach, without falling into a secular methodological approach?

3. Dita Kharisma (ICA26106)
   In modern Muslim-majority states, economic policy is often shaped by global financial pressures. How can maqasid methodology influence macroeconomic decision-making without being reduced to symbolic rhetoric?

4. Maghfiroh
   Amid strong global economic integration, how can the methodology of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah be practically implemented in the economic policies of Muslim-majority countries so that it genuinely shapes policy priorities, rather than remaining merely normative discourse?

5. Heru Kurniawan (STAI Al Bahjah Cirebon)
   Why is the new Maqasid approach relevant in transdisciplinary research?

6. Zinnurain (Mandalika University of Education, Lombok NTB)
   There are many economic guidelines in the Qur’an, yet poverty is often associated with those who adhere to these verses. How can this issue be directed toward a more constructive solution?

7. Mamdukh Budiman, PhD (Malaysia)
   What is the gap, and how can it be fixed?

 All audience are also welcome to ask question in this forum. Thank you.
