“…Consequently, it can be said that H4 is not supported. This outcome is consistent with Paramita and Hidayat (2023), Anifa and Sanaji (2022); Suhadi and Alamsyah (2022); Rahman (2018) findings. However, this outcome contradicts the research of earlier researchers, including An et al ( 2023); Asampana et al (2022); Chan et al (2022); Sarkar et al (2020); Barry and Jan (2018), and Barry and Jan (2016) who discovered a strong relationship between perceived usefulness and the intention to adopt mobile commerce in Malaysia.…”

Mobile commerce transactions adoption among consumers in Malaysia has become a major challenge for mobile commerce providers. This paper aims to determine the factors affecting the intention to use mobile commerce by integrating the Technology Acceptance Model and the updated IS Success Model. A non-probability convenience sampling is employed, collecting 395 questionnaires from Klang Valley residents of Malaysia. A two-stage structural equation modeling is employed to test the hypotheses. The findings indicate that system quality, service quality, and perceived enjoyment significantly affect the intention to use mobile commerce. However, the findings further revealed that information quality, perceived ease of use, and perceived usefulness do not significantly influence the intention to use mobile commerce in Malaysia. These findings will benefit mobile commerce providers and businesses aiming to improve the acceptance of mobile commerce transactions in Malaysia. However, this study is valuable for academicians, researchers, policymakers, and practitioners.

“…In respect of recruiting for ʿāmil positions in Malaysia, a state’s zakat institution under the supervision of the State Islamic Religious Council (SIRC) may appoint an individual or institution that will be responsible for collecting and distributing zakat. An individual ʿāmil is appointed based on the recommendation made by the mosque committee in every district (Ab Rahman, 2014). The ʿāmil ’s appointment can be done on a permanent or seasonal basis such as the appointment of ʿāmil for collecting zakāh al-fiṭr (charity given to the poor during the fasting month).…”

Purpose The purpose of this study is to propose a contemporary human resource management (HRM) framework by zakat institutions, which collect and manage religious alms, both obligatory (zakat) and voluntary (ṣadaqah), in Malaysia. Design/methodology/approach In doing so, discussions pertaining to the key elements of zakat institutions’ HRM including recruitment, selection, performance appraisal, training and development and compensation are gathered from the existing literature and other sources of information such as zakat institutions’ websites and publications. In addition, zakat officers’ insight on how HRM is practiced at their institutions is gathered through a series of semi-structured interviews and incorporated in the findings of this study. Findings The paper finds that the state government, by virtue of the State Islamic Religious Council (SIRC), which is the sole trustee of all waqf properties in Malaysia, may have significant influence in formulating the human resource strategies and policies in zakat institutions. Research limitations/implications The proposed HRM model can be a useful reference for SIRC in enhancing the current human resource practice in its respective zakat institutions. Originality/value The novelty of this study lies in the proposed HRM model applicable to zakat institutions. The model emphasizes the alignment between the zakat institutions’ HRM practice and their zakat collection and distribution goals, as well as zakat management objectives in general.

“…Most of the studies focused on the pathological aspects i.e. stress, anxiety and depression (See & Chuah, 2015;Salam, Yousuf, Bakar & Haque, 2013;Rahman & Noor, 2014). Absence of pathological mental issues does not indicate good mental health.…”

With the increasing popularity of positive psychology, current studies are more concerned in promoting mental health rather than only focusing on pathological disorders. Hence, the term "subjective well-being" was introduced as a pertinent area of study where new research has emerged regarding its components: positive affect, negative affect and life satisfaction. The current study serves as a preliminary study within the Malaysian higher education context with the aim to examine the impact of a relatively new approach to mindful art therapy, Zentangle®, on improving the subjective well-being of first year teacher trainee students in a Malaysian public university in terms of positive affect. This study adopted the one-group pretest posttest design in which 44 students participated in the study. Participants were required to answer two sets of questionnaires before and after the Zentangle® intervention. Through descriptive and inferential analyses of data obtained, this study found that the level of positive affect was not significantly correlated with stress level. In addition, the most important finding in this study was level of subjective well-being in terms of positive affect significantly increased after participants' experience with mindful art therapy. This study serves as the first, or one of the first to study on Zentangle® in the Malaysian context and aims to provide insights on mindful art therapy and positive affect, probing future studies looking into related topics.
