innovation and digital developments to their advantage (Najih & Hamhij, 2021).

Given that technology was created by humans to facilitate human life, it is imperative that it

is protected through legal mechanisms to prevent misuse. According to Suryadi (2020), Today's

technological advances are changing many aspects of human life. Thanks to ever-evolving technology,

human life now exists in a world without the limits of time and space. According to Azwar (2019),

Today's modern and advanced technologies have paved the way for vast global information networks.

This technology makes it easier for humans to communicate with each other, and the virtual world

allows people to communicate remotely (Rini et al., 2021; Sulistianingsih et al., 2023).

fairness in decision-making, and impact on the workforce arise.

Advances in knowledge and technology have led to changes in trade in the era of Industry 4.0.

Now, robotics, big data, artificial intelligence, and digital electronics enable electronic commerce.

However, from a different perspective, this phenomenon can have both positive and negative impacts.

They can remove barriers that stand in the way of global human connections, which can contribute

to changes in civilization, progress, and human well-being, resulting in increased productivity,

quality, and corporate investment, as well as changes in culture, economy, and the socio-economics

of society. One of the negative consequences is the emergence of social fragmentation, which leads to

increased economic inequality, changes in the role of conventional markets, the inability of

delivering goods. In Indonesia, digitalization is developing in various fields, including the economy,

government, education, etc. Digitalization is converting analog (pre-existing) products or services

into digital form. Digitalization affects the effectiveness and efficiency of time is increasing, because

work can be done more optimally.

Connectivity and digitalization enabled the rapid development of the Industry 4.0 era, with all

systems starting to connect to the digital era. This allows the industry to improve production

efficiency and product quality. Instead, Industrial Revolution 4.0 will negatively impact 800 million

jobs worldwide by 2030 when robots replace them (Satya, 2018). This will challenge Indonesia, a

developing country with a high workforce and unemployment rate.

In the face of the fourth industrial revolution, Indonesia must not remain passive. Many

Industrial Revolution 4.0. Computers in the era of the Industrial Revolution 3.0 make the addition of

industrial technology more challenging. However, the future era of the Industrial Revolution 4.0

allows computers from the era of the Industrial Revolution 3.0 to connect and communicate. That

way, humans will be helped in carrying out all forms of activities, including for those who run the

economy in the business world.

Business plays quite an important economic role in human civilization because it has the ability

to drive the economy, create job opportunities, generate added value, and meet customer needs and

desires (Santoso, 2021). However, businesses can also affect the environment, deceive consumers,

According to Jones (1991), business ethics includes aspects related to moral actions carried out by

companies. It is necessary to maintain consumer confidence and corporate image in the long run

(Rustandi & LAH, 2023).

Industri 4.0 memiliki banyak manfaat potensial. Ini dapat meningkatkan layanan pelanggan,

pendapatan, kecepatan produksi, dan fleksibilitas. Meskipun Industri 4.0 membawa banyak

keuntungan, itu juga menyajikan tantangan. Menyadari potensi manfaatnya akan berdampak positif

pada ekonomi suatu negara. Negara-negara yang memulai industri 4.0 menghadapi banyak

tantangan. Termasuk dalam hal ini adalah keberdayaan dalam menghadapi perubahan sosial dan

demografi, instabilitas politik, keterbatasan sumber daya, risiko bencana alam, dan kebutuhan akan

teknologi yang ramah lingkungan. Hal ini dikemukakan oleh Prasetyo dan Sutopo (2018)., ada

more likely to use digital technology in a way that is in harmony with the Bible to maximize their

profits. For example, the rise of online lending, also known as lending platforms, through the use of

seemingly lender-friendly apps is actually very profitable (Kamijaya, 2021; Syukur & Syahbudin, 2020).

Due to rapid business growth, businesses often face ethical issues (Pangiuk, 2021). In the era

of Industry 4.0, inequality, unfairness, and abuse of power are some examples of ethical negligence.

(Suraji &; Istianingsih, 2020). According to Bala (2019), poor countries and consumers do not enjoy

as many financial benefits as rich countries or large companies (Kamijaya, 2021).

Not all business people can consistently apply business ethics in their operations. According

to Barney (1991), several reasons why businesses find it challenging to do so include pressure from

competition, prioritizing profit over moral values, and a lack of awareness about the importance of

The presence of applicable business law in Indonesia is an additional component that

influences the practice of business ethics. According to Acker et al. (2012), business law consists of

rules and regulations governing business activities in Indonesia. This includes business ethics.

Therefore, business law plays an important role in determining the business ethics applied by

companies. Moral and responsible business practices are necessary to ensure that businesses

contribute to maximum benefit to society and the country. Moral and responsible business practices

include regulatory compliance, respecting consumer rights, and protecting the environment.

However, unlawful and unethical business practices still prevail in Indonesia (Wilardjo, 2011)

(Rustandi & LAH, 2023).

monitoring remain problematic (Agustina, 2022). Regulatory complexity, customer demand, and

intense competition are some of the factors influencing business practices in Indonesia (Kamijaya,

2021).

A set of rules or standards that govern everything, especially human life, is called a law. To

protect the interests of their fellow human beings, people must have certain rules in their lives. The

purpose of the law is to make people's lives better and fairer. This rule is intended to create peace

and meet the needs of all people without interfering with each other (M. Taufiq, 2021).

There are three types of law in Indonesia: Customary Law, Islamic Law, and Positive Law

(Indonesian National Law). Of the three laws, the author will only discuss two types that are the focus

of this study. Both Positive Law and Islamic Law have different views on business. According to

formulated or written. Therefore, it can be concluded that Islamic law regulates more aspects of

business relations than positive law. There are three types of law in Indonesia: Customary Law,

Islamic Law, and Positive Law (Indonesian National Law). Of the three laws, the author will only

discuss two types that are the focus of this study. Both Positive Law and Islamic Law have different

views on business. According to Islamic teachings, based on the Qur'an and Hadith, business is a

buying and selling transaction between a seller and a buyer. Religious activity is also included in

practical Islamic law. Therefore, Islamic law regulates business relations between humans and God,

i.e., Allah Almighty. On the other hand, Indonesian positive law comes from the Western (Dutch) legal

tradition. In business, positive law only regulates the relationship between individuals and legal

entities. Positive laws are made by humans for humans through authorized institutions and are

considered valid by society after being formulated or written. Therefore, it can be concluded that

Islamic law regulates more aspects of business relations than positive law (M. Taufiq, 2021).

In this study, researchers try to explain the integration of legal regulations using applicable

sources in terms of Islamic Law and Positive Law related to business ethics in the era of the Industrial

Revolution 4.0 and Society 5.0. In addition, the reason researchers use Islamic Law and Positive Law

is to see how the two laws are enforced. As well as seeing how the development of the two laws in

regulating and providing regulations related to business ethics in the era of the Industrial Revolution

4.0 and Society 5.0 is currently becoming popular among companies and medium traders who are

starting to follow by utilizing online platforms.

accordance with Islamic business principles. By applying these principles, there is no doubt because

they have believed that this is the right action in accordance with Islamic values (Juliyani, 2016).

Business ethics are essential to achieving business goals. One of the main problems is that society

does not understand business ethics according to Islamic principles and procedures, regardless of the

size of the business, whether small, medium, or large. Since it seems they do not apply Islamic ethics

in their business activities, this problem becomes clearer.

Islamic law was crucial in overcoming the moral dilemmas of the era of the Fourth Industrial

Revolution and the Society of 5.0. Fairness, transparency, and sustainability are values Islamic law

offers in terms of business ethics. In such circumstances, it is very important to adapt the conduct of

doing business in accordance with the principles contained in the teachings of Islam. It includes not

practice of riba (interest) is considered unfair and prohibited because it can lead to economic

inequality. There is a Hadith of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) about prohibiting fraud and obscurity in

business transactions (HR. Muslim). Based on the hadith, Islamic Law demands accountability and

transparency in all aspects of business. This includes conducting business honestly, avoiding fraud,

and providing clear information to all parties involved. Although Sharia business law emphasizes the

importance of innovation in business, such innovation must conform to Islamic ethical principles. This

means that technology and business innovation in the Industrial Revolution Era 4.0 and Society 5.0

must be used for the common good and must not harm society or the environment.

Young leaders and entrepreneurs should realize that they need to return to the teachings of

the Qur'an and Sunnah so that they can come up with ideas to utilize the Islamic economic system.

conditions, especially in Muslim countries where poverty is very high. As a result, Islamic economics

emerged as an answer to the problems in Muslim countries. Suppose we want to implement Islamic

Sharia in the business world. In that case, we need to change our mindset from capitalist businesses

to businesses that use Islamic Law as the basis of their operations.

Apart from business ethics, there are many unethical business behaviors while doing

business. Fraud or attempted fraud is one example of unethical business behavior not justified by

Islamic and Positive law. Fraud is when someone uses photos/images that do not match the product

sold to consumers. Photos/images that are not suitable, such as not using actual photos taken from

the internet or photos that do not match the circumstances of the product being traded. Therefore,

accordance with it because it does not provide benefits and benefits, even tends to harm consumers,

and can kill a business.

Furthermore, the author will provide a brief business ethics background from the positive

legal side. Business activities in Indonesia are regulated by Law No. 40 of 2007 concerning Limited

Liability Companies, Law No. 8 of 1999 concerning Consumer Protection, Law No. 30 of 2000

concerning Business Secrets, and Law No. 32 2009 concerning Management and Environmental

Protection. However, unethical business practices and law violations still occur in Indonesia (Agustina,

2022; Rustandi & LAH, 2023).

Another example of unethical behavior in business is stealing business ideas. If trade secret

rights holders file a lawsuit against this action, there are clearly risks involved. Article 17 paragraph

such as artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things (IoT), robotics, and Big Data analytics have

government must update laws and regulations in accordance with technological and business

developments and ensure that they maintain the values of Pancasila and the national interest. In

addition, the government must also improve the ability of business legal human resources to adapt to

digital technology and face new cases arising from digital business activities.

In the era of Industrial Revolution 4.0 and Society 5.0, the challenge of business ethics requires

integration between Islamic Law and Positive Law regulation. Although Islamic Law provides a solid

foundation for business ethics, it is important to ensure that laws that benefit businesses also bind

the same moral principles. This involves creating new regulations relevant to technological

Researchers have noticed the impact of the Industrial Revolution 4.0 on Indonesia's legal

system and technology-related policies. This study examines the impact of the Industrial Revolution

4.0 on Islamic Law and positive legal systems and technology-related policies. However, Society 5.0

emphasizes that human well-being is very important in the technological age. A better, sustainable,

and inclusive future can be created if these two ideas work together and support each other (Suhaidi

et al., 2023).

According to Trisnantoro (2018), Profit-seeking is a normal aspect of business, but there is no

formula for individual businesses. According to Ariadi et al. (2022), Many entrepreneurs will do

anything to make a profit. One way to reduce production costs is to remove employee rights, lower

the regulation of Islamic law and positive law in the context of business ethics in the digital age.

Develop recommendations for policy development that is able to bridge these two legal systems to

create an ethical and sustainable business environment. By understanding the synergy between

Islamic law and positive law, this research is expected to make a meaningful contribution in the

formation of business regulations that are adaptive, responsive, and based on moral and ethical

values, in accordance with the demands of the times.

The author is interested in how a company or a businessman runs their business and whether

the business ethics carried out are in accordance with the rules in Islamic and Positive Law. This

research was conducted to determine the integration of Islamic and Positive Law regulations in

overcoming business ethics from both companies and individual businesses that are run by utilizing

The authors use two research approaches: the Statute Approach and the Conceptual Approach.

The Statute Approach examines all laws and regulations relating to the legal issues being addressed.

The Conceptual Approach takes perspectives and doctrines developed in legal science (Diantha, 2017,

p. 135).

Legal material consists of primary legal material and secondary legal material. The main Legal

Material (Primary) includes laws, official records or protocols related to Lawmaking, and court

decisions. This literature is an important resource in legal research because it helps one understand,

interpret, and apply law (Muhaimin, 2020, p. 124). In addition, secondary legal material describes

primary legal material collected from library research, such as articles, books, and other literature

related to this research (Muhaimin, 2020).

recognizes the universal values underlying both legal systems, such as justice, balance, and

sustainability, while considering the uniqueness and cultural context.

The integration of the regulation of Islamic Law and Positive Law involves the identification

of points of similarity and difference between the two. This includes an in-depth understanding of the

basic principles of Islamic Law, such as sharia, qiyas (analogy), ijma (consensus), and istihsan (policy

deviations), as well as the positive legal principles underlying the legal system in force within a

country. For example, principles such as legal certainty, equality before the law, and individual

freedom take center stage in positive law. This integration also considers contemporary aspects of

both legal systems, such as technological advancement, globalization, and economic complexity,

which can affect the interpretation and application of those legal principles.

framework for regulating business behavior fairly and sustainably. This approach allows combining

the most beneficial elements of both legal systems, while minimizing conflicts and tensions that may

arise in their application. The following are Legal Regulations, both Islamic Legal Regulations and

Positive Legal Regulations related to business ethics:

"And do not unjustly waste the property of others, nor send it to the authorities, that ye may

spend a portion of the property of the sinful men when ye know." This verse emphasizes the

importance of fairness in all business transactions. A business built on fairness and honesty

is the only accepted business in Islam.

is unrighteous." This verse illustrates the importance of respecting others and not belittling

or demeaning them, which is also true in business.

“Hai anak Adam, ambillah perhiasanmu di tiap-tiap masjid, makanlah dan minumlah, tetapi

janganlah kamu berlebihan. Sesungguhnya Dia tidak menyukai orang-orang yang melampaui

batas.” Ayat-ayat ini menggambarkan pentingnya memperlakukan sumber daya alam dengan

hati-hati dan tidak berlebihan. Bisnis dalam Islam harus memperhatikan dampak lingkungan

dari kegiatan mereka dan meminimalkan kerusakan yang ditimbulkan.

From Abdullah bin 'Amr bin al-'Ash, Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said, "The one

most favored by Allah is the one who benefits man the most. The one most favored by God is

the one who benefits man the most." This hadith stresses the importance of providing benefits

to others, which can include ethical behavior in business such as providing quality products

or services or providing fair profits.

The verses of the Qur'an and Hadith that discuss business ethics in Islamic Law have a direct

relationship with Jewish moral principles and values. However, these verses provide guidance and

principles to ensure that business conduct and practices align with Islamic values that promote

justice, honesty, and social responsibility.

sellers. In the context of business ethics, this law encourages fair, honest, and responsible

business practices toward consumers. Through provisions on truthful and non-misleading

information and sellers' obligations to provide quality goods and services, these laws help

promote ethical business practices.
