ijibec.v3i1.1618 jel: g20; g21 abstract non-performing investment are the amounts that can not be collected by organization from clients. in bangladesh banking sector is facing severe consequences from lack of collection of non performing loan(non performing investment for islamic banks). emphasizing the significance of the subject the study is undertaken to find out how non performing investment effect performance of islamic banks in bangladesh for five year period from 2012 to 2016.statistical tests such as (descriptive statistics, correlation and regression analysis) are performed to find out the effect non performing investment have on the overall performance of islamic banks. correlation analysis opine negative association of non performing investment with bank performance, bank size and capital adequacy ratio. on the other hand, regression analysis did not found any significant effect of non performing investment with bank performance.. effect of non-performing investment on islamic banks performance: an empirical study on islamic banks in bangladesh 1 bba,mba, department of finance, university of chittagong,chattogram, bangladesh. 2 assistant professor, department of finance, university of chittagong, chattogram, bangladesh. corresponding email: shafir121@gmail.com2 1. shafir zaman1 2. md. mohiuddin chowdhury2 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 1-82 1. introduction in order to be an efficient economic system financial system should be transparent and accountable. banking industry as a life blood of economic system should be efficient. bank performance is satisfactory when banks can satisfy the customers with minimum risk and maximum return. poor performance of banking industry has a consequence on both the economy of a particular country and in the world economy,(khan and senhadji, 2001).among many risks facing by banks the most severe risk is the risk of non-recovery of loans (non performing investments for islamic banks) that are given to borrowers. default loans after a specific period become non-performing loans. nonperforming loans are not a source of earning for banks rather they are loss for banks (hennie, 2003). loopholes in the financial system, lack of inefficiency of management system, political influence are the prime reasons of nonperforming loan. in bangladesh there are almost 58 listed banks. at present the amount of npl is increasing in bangladesh. in 2010 the npl as an outstanding loan was 7.2% and in 2017 september it was 10.7%.the rate of npl ratio is much more higher than other neighbor countries. almost 45000 billion money was written off as npl (islam,m.a,2018).report from bangladesh bank(the central bank of bangladesh) stated that default loan have increased to 74303 crore in 2017 compared to 62172 crore in 2016.default loans as a portion of outstanding loans have also risen to 9.31% from 9.23% in 2017 compared to 2016 (mallick,s.2018).from the statistics it can be noticed that non-performing loan has become a major concern for financial industries of bangladesh specially for banking industry. the study is undertaken to discover how non performing investment effect islamic banks performance by analyzing the research question: do non performing investment effect the performance of islamic banks in bangladesh? although much research on this topic done by researchers are basically related with impact of npl in terms of banks profitability as well as how credit risk effect bank performance there is little work done considering how non perforimng investment can effect the performance of islamic banks. the research aims to remove research gap by studying how npi can effect performance of islamic banks in bangladesh and further opening a field for research in the topic throughout the world. 2. literature review the loans that cannot be collected by banks from customers are regarded non-performing loans. the prime cause that is responsible for non-performed loan is failure to choose potential customer i.e. the customers who can pay loans in right time (chowdhury,h.m.m.).other causes include:poor credit appraisal, high-interest rate, inflation, low amount of gdp (hou,2007).financial institutions especially banks suffer severely as a result of npl. reserves needed to be maintained by banks to guard against npl. increase in npl reduce banks profit which is in turn reduce income of banks. excess npl decreases the money flow in the economy which results in economic recession. for finding out the association between npl and bank efficiency of malaysia and singapore banks a study had been done by (karim, chan and hassan,2010) .the study revealed npi increases as a result of cost inefficiency of banks. to show how credit risk management effect the performance of nigerian banks for 2004 to 2008 (kargi,2011) conducted research. descriptive statistics, correlation and regression analysis were done. the result opined that credit risk had significant relationship with bank performance. further research emphasizing the impact of credit risk on nigerian bank performance for 20042008 by (hamisu,2011) revealed credit risk and bank profitability were significantly related. similar type of study on pakistani banks by (iftikhar,2016) found npl and capital adequacy ratio had significant existence with performance of bank (roa and roe). international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 1-8 3 a different type of study undertaken on central and eastern european countries for 2009-2012 to explore the association of npl with gdp, inflation and unemployment problem by (skarica,2014) found npl negative relationship with gdp and positive relationship with unemployment rate, inflation. to find out relationship between npl with profitability of nigerian banks for period of 2006 to 2012 research were done by (adebisi and benjamin,2015).the research found roa was insignificantly related with npl but roe was significantly related with npl. for seeing the impact bank-specific factors had with npl on albanian banks for period 20022012 (ali and eva,2015) undertook a study. the result revealed exchange rate and loan growth had positive relationship with bank performance and gdp, interest rate had negative relationship with bank performance. study was conducted to find out the relationship of npl with other factors for period 20082014 in malawian banks by (chimkono, muturi &njeru,2016).the result opined that npl ratio, cost efficiency ratio, average lending interest rate had significant existence with bank performance. to explore how nonperforming loan effect nigerian banks performance a study had been conducted for period 1994 to 2014 by (etale. l,ayunku & etale. e, 2016). descriptive statistics, unit root test, correlation, regression analysis were conducted by researchers. the results found negative association of npl with roce which meant increase in npl cause decrease in firm performance. similar type of study on the nigerian bank for period of 2000 to 2013 was done by (ozurumba,2016). the results found negative relationship between roa and roe with npl.the study opined that this negative relationship was an indicator of danger for sustainability of banks. to find out the effect of npl with net interest on the stock exchange of bangladesh for the period 2008 to 2013(akter & roy,2017) conducted research. the research found significant relationship of npl with net interest margin of banks. further research were done to find the relationship between npl and profitability of ethiopian banks by (balango and rao,2017).the study revealed that npl was negatively associated with profitability . study on kenyan banks with respect to bank performance (roa and roe) and npl were undertaken by (chege and bichanga,2017) for period 2011 to 2015.the study found that nonperforming loan, size of the bank, operating cost and liquidity were significantly associated with bank performance (roa) and capitalization was insignificantly related with bank performance (roa). for exploring how profitability is related with ghana banks (baasi,2018) conducted research for period (2006-2015). the result revealed that npl had negative relation with roe, on the other hand car had positive relation with roe. hypothesis of the study: for the study hypothesis are developed by studying research papers . a study is done on the effect of non -performing loan on the profitability of ethiopian banks by (balango and rao 2017) took non-performing loan ratio as a hypothesis. therefore the first hypothesis of the study is: ho1: there is no relationship between npi with islamic banks performance. ha1: there is relationship between npi with islamic banks performance. bank size is used as an indicator to find out the effect it has with npi. a study made by (chege and bichanga, 2017) studying non-performing loan and financial performance of kenyian commercial banks considered bank size is an indicator. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 1-84 the second hypothesis of the study is: ho2: there is no relationship between size of the bank with islamic banks performance. ha2: there is relationship between size of the bank and islamic banks performance. capital adequacy ratio have been used as an indicator to measure the effect of nonperforming loan on ethiopian banks by (balanco and rao,2017) . the third hypothesis of the study is: ho3: there is no relationship between car with islamic banks performance. ha3: there is relationship between car with islamic banks performance. 3. research method the study uses simple random sampling. simple random sampling is used because it gives the chance of every sample being selected. there are eight islamic banks in bangladesh. samples of six islamic banks are being taken for research. the study used secondary data which is collected from annual reports of six islamic banks from 2012 to 2016. 2012 to 2016 period is used because non performing investment during this period have become an area of concern of banks as it has increased to a great level. thirty annul reports of six islamic banks for year 2012 to 2016 are being used for the study. variables used in the study: dependent variable: bank performance (roa and roe). independent variable: size of bank, npi and car. software used to perform tests: ibm spss 20 software is used to do descriptive statistics, correlation analysis and regression analysis. model development: for the study econometric model is used. the model is as follows: y = a +β 1 x 1 + β 2 x2 + β 3 x 3 + € here y= bank performance(roa and roe) a = constant β 1β 3= regression coefficient of independent variables. table 1. variables and their proxies variable symbol proxies roa y net income / total asset roe y net income/ total

ratio analysis is undertaken to evaluate the overall performance of the islamic banks. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 1-8 5 table 2. five-year ratio

4.24 12.77 2016 1.08 13.07 5.48 4.57 11.89 source: annual report of six sample islamic banks from 2012-2016. return on asset: the return on asset can be computed by taking net profit with respect to total asset of banks. roa shows the profitability of banks. in 2012, roa was 1.48%.roa continued to decrease till 2015.in 2016, roa increased to 1.08% .it indicates the good revenue generation of islamic banks to fulfill short-term obligations. return on equity: roe is is found by dividing net income to total equity. the more the roe the better return is for the shareholders investment. in 2012, roe was 14.28% which decreased in 2013 to 11.79%. in 2014 and 2015 roe declined. in 2016, it increased slightly. this indicted external source of funds require higher cost and it decreases profitability for islamic banks . bank size: bank size is calculated by taking the logarithm of total assets. the size of islamic banks were 5.48% in 2016 and it gradually increased from 2012 to 2016. non-performing investment ratio: non-performing investment ratio is calculated by dividing the non-performing investment to total investments.high ratio results in large amount of bad debts which is loss for the banks. islamic banks had the low ratio of npi in 2012. the highest figure of the npi ratio was in 2016. capital adequacy ratio: car shows how bank assets (loans, investments, securities) have been financed by using capital of the banks. it is described as a percentage of a bank’s riskweighted credit exposures. car ensures safety of depositors money as well as financial soundness of banks. capital adequacy ratio of islamic bank increased from11.69% to 12.77% in 2015. in 2016 it decreased to 11.89% which meant the slowdown of islamic banks capital. it shows that capital cannot be used to cover up due dates and risks will be faced by banks in upcoming days. 4.2 descriptive statistics table 3. calculation of minimum, maximum, mean & standard deviation items n minimum maximum

values of range, minimum, maximum, mean and standard deviation can be found. range is found by maximum minus minimum value. highest value is termed as maximum value and lowest value is termed as minimum value. mean represents average value of all observations which is found by dividing all the number of observations. standard deviation measures the risk involved . standard deviation of all variables is low. it can be concluded that less risk involved. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 1-86 4.3 correlation analysis table 4. pearson correlation test items roa roe size npi car roa 1 roe 1 size -.669 -.567 1 npi -.577 -.351 .951 1 car -.786 -.910 .216 .003 1 from table -4, correlation analysis of independent variable with dependent variable can be found. independent variables bank size, npi, car are negatively related with dependent variable roa and roe. negative association between bank performance and npl also found by (etale. l, ayunku & etale. e, 2016), (ozurumba,2016) and (balango and rao,2017). negative correlation opines an increase in the independent variable causes dependent variable to decrease and vice versa. it is seen that bank size, npi, car will reduce as a result of the increase in roa and roe and increase as a result of the decrease in roa and roe. 4.4 regression analysis table 5. regression analysis based

in table-5 & 6, regression analysis is done in terms of dependent variable (roa and roe).r value indicates how dependent and independent variables are associated. in case of roa and roe, the value is .995 and .990. the value close to 1 means the bank performance (roa and roe) are positively related with size of the bank, npi, car. r square shows the variation of the independent variable concerning the dependent variable. the value of r square is .990 regarding roa and .981 regarding roe. the result suggests that dependent variable roa and roe can explain 99% and 98.1 % of the independent variables (bank size, npi and car). adjusted r square shows how close the international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 1-8 7 data fits the line of regression. the respective adjusted r square values are .962 in case of roa and .924 in case of roe.so 96.2% and 92.4% of data fits the regression line. durbin watson statistics give an idea about the consistency of time series data. the standard value is 0 to 4. dw value in case of both roa and roe is 2.599.the value above two opines that data series are consistent and there is no autocorrelation involved. p value in both cases of roa and roe is greater than 0.05 which rejects the alternative hypothesis and indication of no relationship between islamic bank performance with npi. similiar type of result is also found by (adebisi and benjamin,2015) on their conducted research on impact of npl in terms of profitability of nigerian banks. 5. conclusion the study explore how non performing investment effect islamic banks performance. negative effect of non performing investment with islamic banks performance are found in terms of correlation analysis. in regression analysis no effect is found between non performing investment and banks performance. the research creates a scope for researchers to identify the reasons of negative effect of non performing investment with bank performance when correlation

iqamah al-`adl (establishing justice) sharia bank has to ensure that all the fund that they receive and distribute are free from riba, deceit, corruption, gharar, maysir, etc. c. jalb al-maslahah

with alpha 0.05 is gained r table 0.1661. to determine the validity of the questionnaire, so r which is obtained (r count ) consulted to (r table ). if r count is bigger than r table (r count > r table ), therefore the instrument is valid, and if r-count is smaller than r table (r count < r table ), the instrument is invalid. after validity test conducted with spss, all statement items on variable x, which is sharia marketing characteristics (theistic, ethics, realistic and humanism) and statement items on variable y, which is customer’s satisfaction rated as valid because it has correlation coefficient value above 0.1661. on reliability test, questionnaire items each variable has cronbach alpha > 0.60. table. 1 reliability test result no variable cronbach alpha information 1 theistic 0.802 reliable 2 ethics 0.737 reliable 3 realistic 0.744 reliable 4 humanist 0.819 reliable 5 customer’s satisfaction 0.692 reliable source: data processed based on table 1, we could see that each independent variable (teistis, etics, realististic, humanism) and dependent variable customer’s satisfaction have cronbach alpha value above 0.60. thus, five variables are reliable. table 2 multicollinearity test no variable tolerance< 0.1 (vif)>10 1 theistic 0.732 1.366 2 ethics 0.218 4.583 3 realistic 0.205 4.880 4 humanism 0.663 1.508 source: data processed based on classic defiant test: on multicollinearity test, the value of tolerance of each independent variable is above 0.1 and the value of variance inflation factor (vif) variable is smaller than 10, therefore it can be confirmed there is no multicollinearity among regression model. based on regression analysis above, the formula as follow: y = α + β1x1 + β2x2 + β3x3 + β4x4 +e y = 4.663 + 0.399x1 + 0.498x2 + 0.561x3 + 0.262x4 + e regression formula above can be explain as following: α = 4.663. konstantin value (α)shows positive value amount 4.663. it means if that variabe theistic, ethics, realistic and humanist is constant, thus customer’s satisfaction in saving in sharia bank of jateng increases amount 4.6663 items. β1 = 0.399 theistic variable coefficient regression value shows positive value amount

economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 137-145 β2 = 0.498 ethics variable coefficient regression value shows positive value amount 0.498. it means that in every increase of variable ethics cause the increase of customer’s satisfaction in saving in sharia bank of jateng, around 0.498, with assumption another variable are fixed. β3 = 0.561 realistic variable coefficient regression value shows

0.95 (95%). it is stated as significant if the value of significance α ≤ 0.05. (2) test criteria if t count > t table then h 0 is rejected and h a accepted. if t count < t table then h 0 accepted and h a rejected. table. 3 hypothesis no variable hypothesis t count t table accepted/rejected 1 theistic (h2): theistic (rabbaniyyah) has positive influence to customer’s satisfaction in saving at sharia bank of jateng 4.852 2.47 accepted 2 ethics (h3): ethics (akhlāqiyyah) has positive influence to customer’s satisfaction in saving at sharia bank of jateng 4.174 2.47 accepted 3 realistic (h4): realistic (al-waqī’iyyah) has positive influence to customer’s satisfaction

looking at df1 or k-1, which is the number of variable minus 1 (5–1=4) and df2 (n-k) which the number of sample reduced by the number of variable (100-5=95). the value of f count is greater than f table (f count: 22.439 > f table: 2.47) indicates independent variables simultaneously affect customer’s satisfaction. as for hypothesis that stated “sharia marketing has positive influence to customer’s satisfaction in saving at sharia bank of jateng” is accepted. 6. conclusion according to regression analysis result it is found that beta value of theistic independent variable with amount

assumption another variable are constant. among the four variables, realistic variable has the highest influence in customer’s satisfaction to save in sharia bank of jateng with amount of 0.561. it is suitable with herman kertajaya’s concept where he argued that sharia market cannot be classified as emotional market, considering that the sharia market is very critical in choosing financial institution. furthermore, it is classified as spiritual market. spiritual market is 144 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 137-145 a market that is combining customer’s mundane needs and afterlife needs. this strengthen individual behaviour theory that suitable with sharia economics concept, where customer’s decisions in choosing sharia bank were not made based on material consideration, but emphasizing more on syar’i, faith and the maslahah (benefit) on doing economic activities aspect. as pointed out by adiwarman karim (2009), the general principles of islamic economics in muamalah are tauhid (faith), ‘adl (justice), nubuwwah (prophethood), khilafah (government) and ma’ad (final result). the second variable that influencing customer’s satisfaction in saving at sharia bank of jateng is ethics variable with the amount of 0.498. respect and appreciation attitude also has an important role in attracting customer. as a service company, employee’s ability in akhlaqiah has dominant role, where all of employee’s attitude are based on applicable norm. a customer will trust a financial institution that prioritize moral, ethics and good character in its operational system to reach maslahah (benefit), to invest his/her fund. according to as-shatibi, maslahah (benefit) as a foundation for human life, consists of five things, which are religion (dien), soul (nafs), intellectual (‘aql), family and offspring (nasl) and material (wealth). sharia bank’s customer oriented on mundane and afterlife’s happiness to reach falah and fulfil five needs of maslahah, therefore there will be balance between material and non-material life. the result of data analysis with anova shows that the first hypothesis: sharia marketing characteristics have positive influence to customer’s satisfaction in saving at sharia bank of jateng” can be accepted. the result of data analysis showed that variable theistic (rabbaniyah) has positive influence to customer’s satisfaction in saving at sharia bank of jateng. thus, the second hypothesis is accepted. the result of data analysis showed that ethics variable (akhlāqiyyah) has positive influence to customer’s satisfaction in saving at sharia bank of jateng. thus, the third hypothesis is accepted. the result of data analysis showed that realistic (al-waqī’iyyah) variable has positive influence to customer’s satisfaction in saving at sharia bank of jateng. thus, the fourth hypothesis is accepted. the result of data analysis showed that humanism (insāniyyah) variable has positive influence to customer’s satisfaction in saving at sharia bank of jateng. thus, the fifth hypothesis is accepted. the result of the whole research showed that theistic, ethics, realistic and humanism variable influence customer’s satisfaction in saving at sharia bank of jateng. those things become essential where increasing sharia compliance at sharia bank of jateng will expand the chance to rise the number of customer, because according to this research, independent variable can predict dependent variable. those conclusions resulted in some suggestions, as following: (1) sharia bank of jateng could increase their sharia marketing implementation to increase customer’s trust and their consistency in implementing islamic principle. (2) to the next researcher, it is expected to find another variable that can influence customer satisfaction to institution. (3) to the next researcher, it is expected to analyse all of bank in whole central java area, not just in puwokerto. references adiwarman, k.

introduction in order to provide assurance that foods which people consume is halal and proper for consumption, in particular to moslem, indonesia ulama committee (i.e., mui) makes a policy by organizing a department of assessment on foods, drugs, and cosmetics (i.e., lppom) that function is to monitor and study products of foods, drugs, and cosmetics which in turn providing suggestions toward committee of fatwa to establish halal certificate on products that meet the criteria of halal. this far, lppom mui is passive. that is, this department is about to conduct a study on a product by request from companies who are willing to make their products recognized as halal products, given that act no. 33 year 2014 has not been implemented yet. in short, halal certificate by lppom mui east java is by request from companies, which in turn having an audit on documentation, ingredients, location, and process of production. from such audit, the committee of fatwa mui may define whether or not the product is halal. the validity period of this halal certificate is two years, but for import meats as its validity period is every shipping. the data since 2011 to 2018 (up to august) showed that the number of halal-certified products, both regular proposal and small middle enterprises (smes) cooperated with related instances was 91.676 products, and the total number of halal-certified companies was 4.425. the number of halal-certified products was significantly increasing, especially in 2016. however, the data of halal certificate in 2018 was only up to august although it was commonly counted at the end of the year, particularly for smes. it is based on the following data. table 1. halal products no year the number of halal certificate the number of product

products, it showed that many food products had not been certified. act no. 33 year 2014 that requires every product registered, spread out, and sold in indonesia to have halal certificate is about to be implemented. of course, it may bring several problems for fodd companies, especially those classified into small middle enterprises (smes). they have limitation on finance and human resources. on the other hand, the government should empower the actors of smes, given the huge number of employees engaged within, and thus, the attempt of poverty alleviation in indonesis may work well. this far, a facility of halal certification cooperated with lppom mui and government intances, in particular to both provincial and local department of industry and commerce has been organized, however, it is merely certification and the smes thought that the process has ended when they 121international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 119-125 had the certificate. they thought that halal certification was like another licensing (anwar, 2018), whereas it is a kind of continual activities, not only at the beginning, but also sustaining the quality of the product, especially the halalness. being halal and haram is principle in islam, as alquran and hadits clearly get human to have good and halal consumption, as allah saying in al-quran: “oh, mandkind, eat from whatever is on earth [that is] lawful and good and do not follow the footsteps of satan. indeed, he is to a clear enemy” (qs. al-baqarah [2]: 168), as well as allah saying: “oh, you wh have believed, eat from the good things which we have provided for you and be grateful to all if it is [indeed] him that you worship.” (qs. al-baqarah [2]: 172). in addition, allah also said: “and eat of what allah has provided for you [which is] lawful and good. and fear allah, in whom you are believers.” (qs. alma’idah [5]: 88). furthermore, many verses have prohibited mankind consuming haram products, as allay said: “oh, you who have believed, indeed, intoxicants, gambling, [sacrificing on] stone alters [to other than allah], and diving arrows are but defilement from the work of satan, so avoid it that you may be successful.” (qs. al-ma’idah [5]: 90). allah also said: “you are forbidden (to consume) the dead, blood, and the flesh of swine; also flesh dedicated to any other than allah, the flesh of strangled (animals) and of those beaten, that which is killed by falling, gored to death; mangled by beasts of prey, unless you find it (still alive) and slaughter it; also of animals sacrificed on stones (to idols). (you are forbidden) to seek division by the arrows, that is debauchery. those who disbelieve have this day despaired of your religion. do not fear on them, but fear on me. this day i have perfected your religion for you and completed my favour to you. i have approved islam to be your religion. (as for) he sho does not intend to commit a sin but is constrained by hunger to eat of what is forbidden, then surely allah is forgiving, merciful.” (qs. al-maidah [5]: 3). from those all verses, what is defined as halal food is any good food and allowed to eat based on the tenet of islam, which corresponds to al-quran and hadits. ibnu katsir (2000, vi-415) defined the term halal as something good that brought benefits for body and religion, and what was being haram is something bad that brought disadvantages and danger for body and religion. simply saying, marzuki (2014) defined halal food as those allowed by islam to eat based on alquran and hadits. furthermore, the definition of good food (thayib) is any kinds of food that may bring health for body, revealing a willing to eat and not forbidden by al-quran and hadits. if it is not found in al-quran and haditz, it needs more detail and clearer explanation through ijtihad in the form of ijma’ and qiyas toward a common nash that should be more explored by ulama in order to avoid any syubhat (doubt). 2. research method this study is field research. as the practical sources, it is conducted in department of halal certification lppom mui east java and halal-certified companies of food products, as well as another place related to this study. for data collection, it is through observation, interview, and documentary. this study is qualitative, since the data is analyzed in verbal-descriptive manner. in this study, the author would have both qualitative (quality-oriented) and quantitative (quantity-oriented) data collection. therefore, it is classified into qualitative research as it focuses more on meaning along with qualitative data and analysis. toward the quantitative data, it would be organized in quantitative manner withougt being forced to be analyzed qualitatively. this is what the author intended to do in data collection. therefore, the quantitative data would not be counted through evidence for a prediction, but would be used as a supporting phenomenon for 122 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 119-125 qualitative analysis in order to bring reliability on its final conclusion. after having data collection, the next stage is analyzing them all. as it is a qualitative research, the data analysis is open-ended and inductive. using inductive manner, the data would be analyzed through descriptive-qualitative way. in this case, the author would apply content analysis as well. it is a scientific analysis on the content of a phenomenon or communication. 3. result and discussion 3.1. the urgency of halal assurance system as mentioned in the document of lppom mui, halal assurance system is an integrated management system structured, applied, and maintained by companies in order to regulate their ingredients, process of production, products, human resources, and particular procedrues for the sake of sustainability on the process of halal production based on the requirement of lppom mui (lppom mui,2018). this definition shows that halal assurance system is an ideal system consisting of various elements that every halal-certified company should have. in simply saying, halal assurance system (i.e., sjh/sistem jaminan halal) consists of several elements, as follow. 120  research as it focuses more on meaning along with qualitative data and analysis. toward  the  quantitative  data,  it  would  be  organized  in  quantitative  manner  withougt  being  forced  to  be

of a phenomenon or communication.    3. result and discussion  3.1. the urgency of halal assurance system  as mentioned in the document of lppom mui, halal assurance system is an integrated  management  system  structured,  applied,  and  maintained  by  companies  in  order  to  regulate  their  ingredients,  process  of  production,  products,  human  resources,  and  particular procedrues for the sake of sustainability on the process of halal production  based on the requirement of lppom mui (lppom mui,2018). this definition shows that  halal  assurance  system  is  an  ideal  system  consisting  of  various  elements  that  every  halal‐certified company should have.  in simply saying, halal assurance system (i.e., sjh/sistem jaminan halal) consists  of several elements, as follow.                              figure 1. halal assurance system    3.2. halal assurance system as the guarantee for product reliability  in accordance to its title, this halal assurance system aims to assure that a company’s  products are classified into halal products and have corresponded to the requirement of  lppom mui. it is a kind of necessity since it is impossible for the official of lppom mui  to conduct daily monitoring on product halalness.  in addition, this system is a kind of quality assurance that considers halal as one of  the criteria. thus, halal‐certified products are those corresponding to the criteria of halal  under the provision of mui. similar to another quality assurance which has certification  of  quality  system  on  it,  the  analogue  of  assurance  for  halal  product  is  called  halal  certification. it is a kind of   systematic examination to find out whether a company’s product consistently satisfies  figure 1. halal assurance system 3.2. halal assurance system as the guarantee for product reliability in accordance to its title, this halal assurance system aims to assure that a company’s products are classified into halal products and have corresponded to the requirement of lppom mui. it is a kind of necessity since it is impossible for the official of lppom mui to conduct daily monitoring on product halalness. in addition, this system is a kind of quality assurance that considers halal as one of the criteria. thus, halal-certified products are those corresponding to the criteria of halal under the provision of mui. similar to another quality assurance which has certification of quality system on it, the analogue of assurance for halal product is called halal certification. it is a kind of systematic examination to find out whether a company’s product consistently satisfies the criteria of being halal. the resul of this certification is the recognition of halalness on the tested product based on the provision of mui, in the form of halal certificate. as halal assurance system is classified into quality assurance in the form of halal certificate, following anwar (2017), halal certification by lppom mui is an attempt to protect consumers, particularly moslem, from any haram products that islam has forbid. as commonly seen that islam provides a rule to its follower to consume halal products and forbid them consuming haram ones. moslem consumers need to be protected from any haram products as well (ridlwan, 2017), 123international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 119-125 as one primary purpose of consumer protection is to make every individual healthy both physic and mental. it is as sidabalok (2010:6) argued that one primary reason addressing why consumers should be protected is for the sake of creating healthy individuals, both physic and mental, as the generation of development, which also implies to maintain the sustainability of national development. the law of halal product assurance (i.e., uu jph) mentions that the assurance of halal product is a legal certainty toward products, and it is proven by halal certificate. the organization of jph aims to (1) provide convenience, safety, security, and assurance of the availability of halal products for every body, and (2) enhance the value-added for companies to produce and sell halal products. 3.3. halal assurance system as a sustainable assurance for product halalness halal assurance system is an integrated management system structured, applied, and maintained by companies in order to control all the ingredients they use, the process of production, the product, the available human resources, and the applied procedures. it is conducted in order to keep the sustainability of halal production under the regulation of lppom mui. maintaining the sustainability of halal production is necessary due to several cases of halalcertified companies which products contain pork within. among those cases, a restaurant using pork in its menu is found. this may be due to the fact that the management does not apply halal assurance system in complete manner (billiocta, 2015). whereas, less restaurants are halalcertified, as the study from halal watch; an official body providing advocation and protection for consumers in case of halal issue. it found that less restaurants had halal certificate. among 3.081 restaurants in indonesia, only 46 of them had halal certificate, or it was only 1.49% (sugianto, 2016). halal assurance system is made and applied optimally by companies in order to avoid any haram products that islam has forbidden to eat, both haram lidzatihi (i.e., due to the ingredients) and haram lighairihi (due to the process of production). there are 11 criteria in halal assurance system, including (1) the policy of halalness that contains company’s policies in keeping their products halal, (2) halal management team consisting of employees with responsibility on product halalness, (3) training and education on halal production by companies toward their employees, (4) every ingredient the companies use, both raw, additive, and processing aid materials, should be halal, (5) the products they produce should not be against the syari’ah regulation, (6) the facility of production should be clean from any najis, both najiz mukhaffafah, mutawasithah, and mughaladhah, (7) the companies should have written procedures of critical activities on halalness, (8) the capability to track on halal-certified products, (9) unqualified product handling, (10) internal audit, and (11) management review to maintain the halalness of product. applying those 11 criteria, halal-certified companies may assure that their products are completely halal based on the standard of lppom mui. therefore, in order to motivate the employees to work properly based on the existing regulation and criteria on halal assurance system, the companies should organize a program of education and training, as well as reward and punishment on them, and thus, the possible risks due to human error may be eliminated, for instance, unqualified ingredients against the list of ingredients recognized by lppom mui, and any other possible risks that may happen (sholihah, 2017). 3.4. halal assurance system provides satisfation to consumers a modern management does not only think on how to get consumers, but also how to maintain them to be customers. one of the ways is by providing satisfaction to consumers (kavanillah, 2018). in general, normasari (2013) defined customer satisfaction as a comparison between services and 124 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 119-125 the result the customers perceive with an expectation that both services and result they perceive, at least, should be equal as what they had expected, or even beyond their expectation. it means that customer satisfaction refers to customers’ feeling as the response to the goods and services they receive. halal assurance system is a part of effort to provide satisfaction to customers, in particular to moslem customers. companies that implement halal assurance system is likely to understand the characteristics of their consumers and customers, and it is commonly called customers’ behavior. assael, in anwar (2014), explained that understanding the characteristics of consumers was very crucial for companies in order to produce the appropriate goods and services as people expected, provide a fair price in more interesting condition compared to what other companies have offered. hence, the consumers may completely give their trust on the company. in the perspective of marketing, halal assurance system is a part of syari’ah marketing. kertajaya and sula (2006) defined the term “syari’ah marketing” as a discipline of strategic business that leads to the process of creating, offering, and altering the value of an initiator toward the stakeholders, which all the process is consistent with the value of syari’ah. thus, syari’ah marketing is implemented based on the concept of islam as what nabi muhammad saw has taught. it means that, in the practice of syari’ah marketing, all the processes (creating, offering, and altering the value) should not have things against the principles of islamic muamalah. following anwar (2014), the characteristics of syari’ah marketing which implicitly takes ethics and moral as its priority refers to providing an excellent service to consumers, and in turn, providing satisfaction to the consumers. it is due to psychological factors, such as motivation, perception, learning, trust, and attitude, which may affect the consumers’ selection on buying things. recently, therefore, halal products become a new trend on business, particularly in international commerce (zulkarnain, 2014). the government, through its related departments, facilitates small middle enterprises (smes) to have halal certification with an expectation that they may have capability to compete with big companies that have already had high awareness on halal sertification as well as halal assurance system (anwar, 2017). 4. conclusion in accordance to the discussion and analysis of this study, it concludes that, in order to assure the halalness of food products from halal-certified companies, it needs halal assurance system. it is made and applied by halal-certified companies to maintain the sustainability of their product halalness. it is a way to bring satisfaction to customers. from this conclusion, the author suggests that every halal-certified company, in particular to those in food industry, should pay more attention on halal assurance system, both its manual and implementation, in order to improve the consumers’ trust on their products. acknowledgment this article is the result of research in 2018. the author would like to thank the

mailto:egi.firmansyah@unpad.ac.id 2 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 1-10 1. introduction in indonesia, islamic bank consists of two categories, namely islamic commercial bank (bank umum syariah) and islamic rural bank (bank pembiayaan rakyat syariah or known as bprs). bprs is allowed to run its business after receiving a license from indonesia financial service authority (ojk). in its operation, bprs is not allowed to provide financial services related to payment traffic. bprs cannot either have any branch outside the province of its headquarter, moreover overseas (ojk, 2016). thus, bprs acts as the local bank, serving customers with limited financial services such as saving and loans. this aspect is one of the distinct things that differ bprs from the commercial bank. the research in islamic banking is extensive as has been conducted in several countries (akbar, shah, & kalmadi, 2012; echchabi & olaniyi, 2012; hassan, 2009; islam & rahman, 2017; noman, chowdhury, & arifuzzaman, 2013; saini, bick, & abdulla, 2011). the topics of those research are mostly related to the practice of sharia-compliant commercial banks. as a derivation of islamic banking, it is also worth noting that islamic rural banks play an essential role in the empowerment of society. thus, studying islamic rural banks can help us understand better the aspects related to them. the research focusing on islamic rural banks has been conducted by several scholars as an effort to understand this islamic microfinance institution. fitriah and buchori, in their study, concluded that the third-party fund of islamic rural banks is affected by the proportion of profit and loss sharing with its customers (fitriah & buchori, 2011). so, increasing the ratio of this profit and loss sharing can be taken as a strategy to increase assets (isnandar, firdaus, & maulana, 2016). in terms of banking efficiency and profitability, most of the islamic rural banks in indonesia fell in two categories, namely, those who are highly efficient but less profitable, and those who are less efficient but have high profitability. this result indicates that the efficiency of islamic rural banks in indonesia does not correlate with their profitability (warninda & hosen, 2015). the efficiency of rural banks affects the number of loans provided to small and medium enterprises (anwar, nidar, komara, & layyinaturrobaniyah, 2019). those previous works have provided some insight into islamic rural banks. however, little research had been done to explore the side of customers of islamic rural banks. therefore, this research is trying to do so by first identifying the source of knowledge of the respondents on islamic rural banks. observing these factors allows the managers to have a proper understanding of the effective socialization of islamic rural banks. also, with these data, islamic rural banks are possible to create the right marketing strategy to cater to potential customers. second, this research aims to study the factors considered necessary by the respondents in selecting islamic rural banks. the results of this study will provide an understanding of the reasons why respondents chose islamic rural banks. third, this research studies the level of knowledge and awareness of the respondents on the products or contracts of islamic rural banks. finally, this paper aims to compare the respondents’ knowledge and awareness based on gender, education level, and period of banking in islamic rural banks. thus, it is expected that this research is expected to shed light, adding a gap in the literature of islamic rural banks. the remainder of this paper is outlined as follows. the second part of this paper outlines the research method, while the third part shows the results and discussions. in this third section, descriptive results and hypothesis testing results are presented. the fourth part puts the conclusions and recommendations. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 1-10 3 2. research method this research uses a descriptive and quantitative approach. a descriptive approach was conducted to answer the first, second, and third research hypothesis, while the quantitative approach was done to answer the fourth hypothesis. to answer the fourth hypothesis, we use the t-test. since there are two types of t-tests, the independent t-test was chosen as it is suitable for the research sample in this research, namely to see the mean difference between the two independent groups (kim, 2015). we collected data using a questionnaire, both offline and online versions, distributed to respondents in several cities in west java indonesia. the respondents in this research are customers of sharia rural banks using the financial services of the banks, both lending and saving products. the sampling technique used in this research is convenience sampling because we asked the respondents available at the site, amounted to 285 respondents. convenience sampling is relatively cost-effective and allows researchers to perform faster survey research. this sampling technique has also been used by previous scholars in their studies (amin, hamid, lada, & baba, 2009; iskandar et al., 2015; shaari, hasan, ramesh kumar moona haji, & mior ahmad jafri md, 2013) to make it possible, we first asked for permission from the management of the banks using formal letters before performing the survey. one month before conducting the survey, we sent the letters to the directors of the islamic rural banks. therefore, we found no difficulty in interviewing the respondents inside the bank. moreover, the situation in the islamic rural banks was conducive since the number of daily visitors was small. this research was conducted in two months (august – september) in 2018. design of the questionnaire in this study, we used a three-section questionnaire where the first section asks the knowledge and understanding of the respondents about the islamic rural banks. the first question in this section asks the means, which becomes the source of knowledge for the respondents for knowing the islamic rural banks. we provided ten options that could be selected, either one or more. the second question in the first section asks the understanding of the respondents about the contracts or products available in islamic banking consisting of nine contracts. in this part, we used the likert scale using five points (5 = understand strongly, and 1= do not understand at all). respondents table 1 shows the demography of the respondents participating in our research. the number of male (54 percent) and female (46 percent) is quite proportional. of these two gender groups, one participant (0.35 percent) was 20-25 years old, 34 percent were 26-30 years old, 26 percent were 31-35 years old, 20 percent were 36-40 years old, 11 percent 41-45 years old, and 9 percent were more than 45 years old. it is also shown that 61 percent of respondents graduated from bachelor's degree programs (s1), 22 percent from a diploma program, and 16 percent from high school. none of the respondents graduated from the lower education level. most of the respondents had an experience of 2-5 years as the islamic rural bank customers. the rests had an experience less than two years (29 percent) and above five years (25 percent).. 3. results and discussions demography of respondents table 1 shows the demography of the respondents in our research. although islamic rural banks are not only for muslims, the respondents in this research are coincidentally all 4 international journal of islamic business and economics

asked the respondents about the sources where they earned knowledge of islamic rural banks. for this question, respondents were allowed to answer more than one answer. among the nine statements we provided, the top three sources are their experience of taking islamic economics or banking at college, their company’s decision to use islamic rural bank services, and conventional media such as newspapers, magazines, and television. most of the respondents (17%) answered that they had ever taken at least a course in islamic finance or economics class at college/university. this fact is in line with the previous result shown in table 1, where most of our respondents are categorized as educated people. in fact, according to statistical center bureau, most of the indonesian population aged fifteen years old above have a lower education level where those who can enter college degrees are only about 11 percent (badan pusat statistik, 2018). as most of the respondents graduated from undergraduate and diploma programs, it can be said that the participants in our research are educated persons. this result is similar to (shome, jabeen, & rajaguru, 2018), where most of the respondents had a college degree. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 1-10 5 their exposure to islamic compliance is higher than those who do not have education at the university level. table 2: source of knowing islamic rural banks how did you know the islamic rural banks? frequency percentage of the total sample rank i have ever studied islamic

concerned about sharia compliance banking. regarding this notion, using a five-point likert scale, we provided 14 factors that may be chosen by our respondents. of these 14 factors, two of them are related to islamic-ness. surprisingly, these two factors are not even in the top rank. the first five factors considered by our respondents are not related to sharia compliance. the result of this research is not in line with (ltifi, hikkerova, aliouat, & gharbi, 2016), stating that the customers of islamic banking in tunisia are mostly concerned with sharia compliance. as shown in table 3, their main reasons for selecting islamic rural banks are attractive incentives or prizes, the recommendation of others, excellent staff services, the ability to survive during the crisis, and innovativeness of islamic rural banks’ products. these top five factors have the highest scores, indicating that our respondents are those who already ponder the professional aspect of islamic banks. in the past, customers of islamic banks chosen islamic banks because of the sharia compliance aspect. however, our descriptive results indicated that this idea has shifted where the customers pay close attention to other aspects. table 3: factors in selecting islamic rural banks no what makes you select islamic rural banks? average score rank 1 attractive incentives / prizes 3,57543 1 2

data (2018) knowledge and awareness of the products or contracts of islamic rural banks in this research, we also try to measure the level of knowledge and awareness of the respondents about the contracts used in islamic rural banks. also, using the five-point likert scale, we asked the respondents to rate their knowledge on nine contracts. the results are shown in table 4 as follows: table 4: knowledge and awareness no contracts average score rank 1 qardhul hasan 3,589473 1 2 wadiah 3,578947 2 3 mudharabah 3,575438 3 4 rahn 3,449122 4 5 musyarakah 3,445614 5 6 murabahah 3,364912 6 7 istisna 3,228070 7 8 bai salam 3,143859 8 9 ijarah 3,049122 9 source: processed data (2018) table 4 shows that the top three contracts, which are the most familiar among our respondents are qardhul hasan, wadiah, and mudharabah contracts. qardhul hasan, also known as a beautiful loan, is a free-interest loan provided by the islamic banks, either private or government-owned banks. in his research, (firmansyah, 2016) stated that governmentowned banks tend to have a higher rate of qardhul hasan than private banks. qardhul hasan is believed to be effective in providing financial assistance to those who are in need, such as farmer or the poor (rahman, 2010; saqib, zafar, khan, roberts, & zafar, 2015; widiyanto, mutamimah, & hendar, 2011). in order the interest-free loan be qualified as qardhul hasan, it must have ten requirements, namely the item of qard is halal, the item in the qard was acquired through permissible way, sincere intention to please allah, no commitment of lender to harass the debtor, no extra or decrease over the principal, no proviso for any other contract for the accomplishment and termination of the former, no stipulation of debtor to provide any kind of facility to the creditor except if it has been the common between them, must not be advanced for the aims which oppose values of sharia, must not be advanced intentionally to anyone aiming to utilize the money for causing destruction, and there should be relaxation and no punishment if the debtor is in a real economic difficulty and does not have anything to pay back the credit (abdullah, 2016). international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 1-10 7 wadiah is a contract where the banks act as the custodians of the customers’ fund. the customers deposit their money in the banks without expecting to earn any returns. the banks provide services in the form of custody and others and charge the customers only for these services, not to earn return or profit. this contract is merely a contract of trust (amanah) where the trustee should protect the deposited fund and is not allowed to take any benefit of it (hassan, 2009). mudharabah is a contract where the owner of the capital (shahibul maal) entrusts his or her funds to the entrepreneur (mudharib) who has skills in conducting business, and they share the profits from this cooperation (hassan, 2009). in the case of saving where mudharabah contract is used, the bank acts as the mudharib, and the depositor acts as the shahibul maal. conversely, in the context of financing, the banks play a role as the shahibul maal, and the debtor or businessman requiring funds plays a role as the mudharib. aside from the banking industry, mudharabah contract is also used in the stock market where shareholders or investors act as the shabibul maal, and the issuing firms act as mudharib utilizing the fund for the business purpose. between these two parties, there is a profit and loss sharing mechanism that resembles the mudharabah contract (alam, akbar, shahriar, & elahi, 2017). hypothesis testing knowledge and awareness based on gender using t-test in microsoft excel data analysis tool pack, we performed a t-test to examine whether there is a difference between the two gender groups (male and female) about the understanding of the top three contracts of islamic rural banks, namely qardhul hasan, wadiah and mudharabah as shown in table 4. to do this, we first converted the ordinal data to be internal data using the method of successive internal (msi), also in microsoft excel. thus the following alternative hypotheses in this first hypothesis testing can be formulated as follows: h1: there is a difference in knowledge and awareness about qardhul hasan contract between male and female respondents. h2: there is a difference in knowledge and awareness about wadiah contract between male and female respondents. h3: there is a difference in knowledge and awareness about mudharabah contract between male and female respondents. the calculation result shows that the p-value of the first hypothesis is 0,283. as this pvalue is larger than alpha of 5%, it can be stated that the h1 is rejected, and h0 is accepted. thus, there is no difference in knowledge and awareness about qardhul hasan contract between male and female respondents. the p-value of the second hypothesis is also larger than alpha of 5%, namely 0,375. thus it can be stated that there is no difference in knowledge and awareness about wadiah contracts between male and female respondents. a similar result is also obtained for the third hypothesis as its p-value is larger than alpha of 5%, i.e., 0,697. thus it can be said that there is no difference in knowledge and awareness about mudharabah contract between male and female respondents. as these three hypotheses (h1, h2, and h3) are rejected, we conclude that the level of awareness and knowledge of both gender groups about the islamic financial products is the same. there is no indication that male respondents are more superior to the female respondents, vice versa. these results motivated us to compare the knowledge and awareness based on education level, as shown in the next section. 8 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 1-10 knowledge and awareness based on the education level the difference in knowledge and awareness based on education level was tested using the ttest. we compared the respondents with a bachelor's degree (s1) and non-bachelor degree holders. the following alternative hypotheses in this second part of hypothesis testing can be formulated as follows: h4: there is a difference in knowledge and awareness about qardhul hasan contract between bachelor degree and non-bachelor degree respondents. h5: there is a difference in knowledge and awareness about wadiah contract between bachelor degree and non-bachelor degree respondents. h6: there is a difference in knowledge and awareness about mudharabah contract between bachelor degree and non-bachelor degree respondents. the calculation result shows that the p-value of the fourth hypothesis is larger (0,167) than an alpha of 5%, indicating the rejection of this fourth hypothesis. so we can say that there is no significant difference in knowledge and awareness about qardhul hasan contract between bachelor degree and non-bachelor degree respondents. the p-value of the fifth hypothesis (0,058) is slightly larger than the alpha of 5%, so the fifth hypothesis is also rejected. thus, there is no difference in knowledge and awareness about wadiah contract between bachelor's degree and non-bachelor’s degree respondents. knowledge and awareness based on banking period also employing a t-test in microsoft excel, we tested the difference in knowledge and awareness among our respondents based on their banking period. we hypothesized that those who have longer banking experience would have a better understanding of the products or contracts of islamic rural banks. thus, our hypothesis in this third part is as follows: h7: there is a difference in knowledge and awareness about qardhul hasan contract between respondents who have a banking period of less than one year and those who have an experience of more than one year. h8: there is a difference in knowledge and awareness about wadiah contract between respondents who have banking period of less than one year and those who have an experience of more than one year. h9: there is a difference in knowledge and awareness about mudharabah contract between respondents who have a banking period of less than one year and those who have experience of more than one year. the calculation result shows that the respondents do not have a different level of knowledge and awareness for the three contracts in islamic banking. the seventh, eighth, and ninth hypotheses are rejected as their p-values are larger than the alpha 5%, namely 0,444, 0,941 and 0,617, respectively. therefore, we can say that there are a comparable knowledge and awareness about the islamic contracts between those who are relatively new to islamic rural banking and those who are not, meaning have more experience in this banking. this fact may appear to the surface because the respondents might have already experience of islamic banking. thus, their understanding of the terminologies in islamic banking is not significantly different. 4. conclusion most of the respondents in our research are categorized as educated customers of islamic rural banking for they have a university degree. most of them also had ever taken the course or subject in islamic banking or economics, making them more familiar with the contracts and international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 1-10 9 every aspect of islamic rural banking. this research also found that the most substantial factor affecting the respondents to choose islamic rural banking is surprisingly not sharia compliance. they tend to see the attractive incentives or prizes offered by islamic rural banking. thus, it seems that the economic factor has been the primary driven in choosing islamic rural banks. recommendation of family, friends and business partners, as well as good service of staff of islamic rural banking, are the critical factors in their consideration. these results, hence, contribute to the theoretical field of the islamic microfinance institutions, whereby the sharia aspect does not always become the primary consideration in selecting an islamic financial institution. the customers of islamic microfinance institutions, specifically in indonesia, may have different motivations from the customers of islamic banks in selecting islamic institutions. we can also conclude that qardhul hasan, wadiah, and mudharabah are the most popular contracts among our research respondents. the level of knowledge and awareness on these three contracts are not significantly different between male and female, between different education levels, and between banking experiences of the customers. these results imply that there should be no segregations or variations of strategies for targeting the current markets because they relatively have similar banking preferences. references abdullah, m.

(2018) established that bmt and btm, the popular islamic financial cooperatives in indonesia have different conventional dimensions. the two are registered by the ministry of cooperatives and smes under act no.25/1992 and adhere to islamic rules (afandi, 2014). seibel (2005) stated that bmt is a commercial and social institution, while btm has a strong commercial orientation. furthermore, usamah (2015) established that the former was founded by muhammadiyah, indonesia's largest modern muslim organization. improving performance and maintaining soundness is crucial for sharia microfinance institutions in indonesia. according to l.j. gitman (2012), btm strives to get a high profit that could give it a competitive edge, attract cheap capital from in-house companies, foreign capital, and partnerships. this increases microfinance profitability, a source of equity that promotes economic growth. ministry of cooperatives and smes issued regulation no. 35.3/per/m.kukm/x/2007 regarding guidelines for financial health assessment of islamic microfinance institutions. zein (2018) stated that this policy monitors capital, productive asset quality, management, efficiency, liquidity, independence and growth, participation, and compliance with sharia provisions from the fatwa institution of the indonesian ulama council. this study evaluated performance based on capital, risk, financing, costs, and assets ratios, as roa (singh et al., 2016). with roa as the dependent variable, proxies used include capital adequacy ratio (car), non-performing finance (npf), financial to deposit ratio (fdr), and operating expenses and operating income (bopo). btm was established on january 5, 1996, in pekalongan and inaugurated by lukman harun, a muhammadiyah leader, and famed islamic fighter. the btm pekalongan, the mother of all btms, has subsidiaries on java islands, sumatra, and kalimantan. it also has microfinance architecture in primary btm (regional), btm center, and parent btm at the center. btm bojong achieved a 5.01 roa in 2015, which is the highest in the history of btms. in 2016 btm bligo recorded an average of 4.7960154598, a decrease of .3039845402. btm bojong recorded a further .2671520366 decrease in 2017 and btm wiradesa .5797203543 increase in 2018. the average btm roa in central java in 2015 was 1.39 and decreased to 1.01 in 2016. in 2017 the figure reduced to 0.91 and 0.73 in 2018, drawing the attention of the institution. btm is now betting on information technology systems to improve its roa. muriu (2011) established that studies aimed at investigating the performance of microfinance institutions are limited, affecting analysis of bopo, car, and npf impacts on microfinance profitability. according to veithzal (2007), bopo, a comparison between operational costs and operating (oeoi) income, measures the efficiency and ability of banks to carry out their operations. a low oeoi occurs when the operating income is higher than operating costs, showing that the bank has a better efficiency ratio. btm uses fdr to assess the financing quantity of third parties, meets deposit withdrawals made, and repays borrowers when due to improve its liquidity. according to horne & jr ( 2005), trade-offs between liquidity and profitability significantly affect the financial performance of institutions. liquidity reduces investment income when organizations hold their funds, while profitability utilizes assets and available funds to yield higher returns. almazari (2014) supported the financial intermediation theory that states high fdr shows a better link between savers and borrowers increasing profitability and financing. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 105-115 107 kamir (2010) established that the capital adequacy ratio is the capital to risk-weighted total assets ratio that determines the bank’s financial position. banks with high car have a better efficiency level, implying that they can face unexpected credit risks. btm capital ensures funds are available to avoid risks and maintain its car to a minimum of 8% through customer protection and stabilizing the financial system. btm’s capital adequacy is the ratio between the available capital and the risk-weighted total assets. high car shows the btm is financially healthy; hence can manage credit risks. channeling funds to financial investments can also reduce the credit risks, which are measured with npf. according to al-smadi-wabel (2011), financial institutions should develop lending policies to lower loan defaulting for high profitability. financial institutions use roa as a comprehensive profitability measure (muiru, 2011). expressed in percentage, roa of 5%, 20 %, or more is healthy, implying that the bank is making more profits. hasbi (2015) stated that the capital structure accounts for 43.3% and the alpha of 5% profitability. diknawati (2014) & m. khoirun (2019) supported this, establishing that capital adequacy ratio significantly affects profitability. m. khoirun (2019), warda & widyarti (2015), wulundari & shofawati (2017), and fitriyah &sholikhin (2019) showed that deposit ratio (fdr) significantly and positively affects roa while non-performing financing (npf) has no effects on bank's return on capital. warda & widyarti (2015) supported that operating costs and operating income affect return on assets. diknawati (2014) and fadrul, dan asyari (2018) disagreed with this, stating that operational costs and operating income (bopo) negatively affect return on assets. although muslims are the largest members of islamic mfis, most of them choose where to save or borrow money. masyita & ahmed (2013) stated that their selection bases on non-economic factors, including service quality, convenience, speed, proximity, payment methods, and loan officers, increasing the need for information technology to improve operations. adrian et al. (2019) established that information technology is the success key for companies and smes. information technology mediates resources and technological capabilities to give organizations a competitive advantage, showing the importance of these computer-based systems (jeffers et al., 2008); (nigel p. melville, 2010); (amirbekova, 2016). sravani (2013) revealed that overcoming technology-related problems speeds up the growth of the financial sector. this study supported sowmya & reddy (2018), which stated that integrating information technology (i.t.) into microfinance institutions improves the flow of information, efficiency, and outreach of services. also, it provided empirical evidence on the factors affecting performance (roa) and the information technology system as the moderator. 2. research method the target population for this study was members of the btm syariah center in central java, indonesia. data from 2015 to 2018 available at central java sharia office in jl. mayend s. parman no. 3 183 wiradesa pekalongan was used to collect a sample size of 14 from 21 btms. the members were obtained from central java sharia yaitu, btm wiradesa, btm doro, btm kalibening, btm batang, btm wuled, btm talun, btm kedungwuni, btm kesesi, btm punggelan, btm bligo, btm bojong btm kota pekalongan, btm kaliwungu and btm wonopringgo. 108 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 105-115 according to munawir (2001), roa describes the results obtained from the company's financial resources. this ratio determines profit or shu that could be distributed to shareholders or used to obtain information on the returns the company and cooperatives will provide on total assets. the roa formula is presented as follows: roa = %100 assets total after tax shu x source: (ministry of cooperative and micro small-medium enterprises, 2007) the ratio measures the capital adequacy of islamic microfinance institutions, enhancing absorption of reasonable risks (kasmir, 2010). according to the minister of cooperatives and smes, btm kspps should have a healthy car of at least 8%, which can be calculated with the following formula; assets weighted-risk capital weighted car = source: (ministry of cooperative and micro small medium enterprises, 2007) nugroho et al. (2021) stated that npf focuses on stakeholders of islamic financial institutions as the primary sustainability indicator calculated with the following formula: financing total financing performing-non total npf = x 100% source: (ministry of cooperative and micro small medium enterprises, 2007) according to veithzal (2007), the financing to deposit ratio (fdr) shows the bank’s financing amount to its third parties. customer credits may offset the bank's obligation to meet deposit withdrawals and satisfy extended credit (kasmir, 2010). ldr is a ratio between the banks’ credit granted and public funds deposited. a ratio below one shows that the bank satisfied its extended credit with its own deposit. fdr can be calculated with the following formula. fundsparty thirdtotal financing total fdr = source: regulation of the minister of cooperatives and smes in 2007 the efficiency and capability levels of a bank are shown with fdr, whose indicators also take advantage of bopo, a ratio between operating costs and operating income (kasmir, 2010). total expenses total revenue source: (ministry of cooperative and micro small medium enterprises, 2007) this study used spss 20, classical assumption testing, and hypothesis testing to analyze the model equations (ghozali, 2018) as follows: model 1 : roa = α0 + β1 car + β2 npf + β3 fdr + β4 bopo + e model 2 : roa = α0 + β1 (car*sti) + β2 (npf*sti) + β3 (fdr*sti) + β4 (bopo*sti) + e international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 105-115 109 variables : roa : return on asset (y) car : capital adequacy ratio (x1) fdr : financing to debt ratio (x2) npf : non-performing financing (x3) bopo : cost-efficient (x5) sti : sistem teknologi informasi (z) 3. results and discussion a. descriptive statistics the variable results showed that the value of roa ranged from 0.45 to 2.48, with a mean of 0.9433 and 0.52473 standard deviations. the fdr score ranged from 29.24 to 102.39, with a mean of 66.57321 and 15.14664 standard deviation. bopo had a minimum score of 61.77, a maximum of 119.40, a 88.6437 mean, and a standard deviation of 12.15625. the minimum value car was 0.48, maximum of 30.48, a mean of 8.3130, and the standard deviation of 8.21852. the npf scored a minimum of 1.31, a maximum of 5.67, a mean of 3.2081, and a standard deviation of 1.01733. b. the test of classical assumption 1) the test of normality the results of the normality test with kolmogorov-smirnov showed that the value of asymp value. sig. (2-tailed) was 0.200 greater than the 0.05 alpha (a) value; hence the regression residuals figure was normally distributed. 2) the test of multicollinearity this study used variance inflation factor (vif) and tolerance, a type of multicollinearity test. in the test, tolerance value was < 0.10 and vif > 10, giving a multicollinearity result with a tolerance value > 0.10 and vif to all variables < 10. the results showed the research model had no multicollinearity problem. 3) the autocorrelative test the autocorrelation test results with spss showed that the d.w. value is 1,773, between du = 1,730 and value 4 – du = 2,270. therefore, there was no autocorrelation among residual values in the multiple linear regression data. 4) the test of heteroskedasity in this test, variables significantly and positively affected each other with values > 0.05 (5%); hence no heteroscedasticity problem. c. multiple regression analysis 1) t statistic test table 1: the statistics test indonesian islamic bank b beta tsig constant 2.347 5.441 0.000 fdr .002 0.64 .899 0.372 bopo/oeoi -.017 -.405 -5.225 0.000 car .046 0.626 8.863 0.000 npf_trns -.113 -.220 -3.093 0.003 110 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 105-115 source: secondary data that has been processed, 2020 t statistic tests aimed to examine the impacts of fdr, bopo, car, and npf_trans on roa and npf_trans roa_trans btm in central java. the results showed that the coefficient value for the fdr btm model in central java is 0.002, and t is 0.899, as illustrated in table 1. fdr had no effect on roa with a significance level of 0.372. bopo with a significance level of 0.000, the regression coefficient of -0.17, and the t value of -5.255 positively and significantly affected profitability. the car coefficient scored -0.017 with a tvalue of -8.863 and a significance level of 0.000, implying it affects returns on assets. the npf_trans coefficient scored -.113 with a t-value of -0.017 and a significance level of 0.003, implying it positively affects the bank's profits from its assets. the regression equation was arranged arranged as follows roa = 2,347 + ,002 fdr ,017 bopo + ,046 car ,113 npf_trans + e table 2: the statistics test indonesian islamic bank b beta tsig constant 1.642 5.062 .000 fdr .026 .736 7.493 .000 bopo/oeoi .026 -.607 -8.269 .000 car .035 .482 5.280 .000 npf_trns fdr_system bopo_system car_system npf_system -.122 -.028 .018 -.006 .073 -.237 -1.790 1.544 -044 .244 -2.789 -7.789 6.566 -.617 1.327 .007 .000 .000 .450 .190 source: secondary data that has been processed, 2020 roa = 1,642 ,028 fdr_system + ,018 bopo_system ,006 car_system + ,073 npf_system fdr_system variable, which moderates information technology obtained -0.028, the t value of -7.789, and sig. 000, affecting profitability. the bopo_system with a coefficient value of 0.018, the t value of 6.566, and sig. level of 000 has a positive correlation with roa. furthermore, the car_system with a coefficient of -0.006, a t of the value of -.617, and sig. level of .450 and npf_system coefficient that scored .073, a t value of 1.327 and sig. level of.190 negatively affected performance. 2) f statistic test the f test showed that car, npf, and bopo positively affected the performance of btm as illustrated below; table 3: the statistics test model f sig. btm in central java 56.353 0.000 source: secondary data that has been processed, 2020 table 3 above shows btm central java scored an f-number of 56.353 with a international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 105-115 111 significance level of 0.000 in an f statistics test that used a 5 % significance level. the results also established that fdr, bopo, car, npf_tran, fdr_system, bopo_system, car_system, and npf_system positively affect profitability. 3) coefficient determination test this test aimed to investigate the impacts of fdr, bopo, car, and npf_tran on roa, and the results are presented in the table below. table 4: the statistics test model adjusted r square std error of the estimate btm in central java 0.723 .27623 table 4 above shows the coefficient of determination (adjusted r2) value obtained in btm central java is 0.723. these results show that the four independent variables have a 72.3% ability to explain their correlation with roa and the other 27.7% explanations come from sources beyond the research model. discussion of fdr with a regression coefficient of .026, t value of 7.493, and a significance level of .000 notably affected the performance of btm in central java. a high fdr in this institution indicates stable financing due to more income in profitsharing or margin. the sample size used in this study showed that the average btm fdr declined in 2016 and increased in 2017 and 2018. the 2018 fdr increase affected the roa of several btms in central java, showing that the institution efficiently manages investments. windriya (2019), risalah et al. (2018), primasari (2018), wulandari & shofawati, (2017), m. khoirun (2019), wardana & widyarti (2015), diknawati (2014) and fitriyah & sholikhin (2019) aslo supported this study, stating that fdr significantly affects roa. the bopo or oeoi obtained a regression coefficient of -0.026 and t -8.269 and a significance level of 0.000, meaning this independent variable positively correlates with btm performance. generating high operating income with low operating costs indicates this sharia microfinance institution is efficient and competent. if the company fails to operational costs, expenditure will increase, negatively affecting performance. islamic mfis should strive to achieve a better bopo or oeoi like the btm in central java that increased its profitability. wahyudi et al. (2021),windriya,(2019), risalah et al.(2018), m. khoirun(2019), wardana & widyarti (2015) supported this study, establishing that reducing operational costs and increasing operational income positively affect performance. however, serby (2021) and dicknawati (2014) stated that different bopo results are negatively related to profitability. car with a regression coefficient of 0.035, t value of 5.280, and the significance level 0,000 positively affected profitability of btm in central java. high car shows that btm can effectively handle credit risks because it is in good financial health. wahyudi et al. (2021), risalah et al. (2018), diknawati (2014), and m. khoirun (2019) also stated that capital adequacy ratio positively significantly affects profitability. however, fitriyah & sholikhin (2019) had a different opinion, stating that car is negatively correlated with roa. npf_trans achieved a significance level of 0.007, affecting profitability because of better bopo or oeoi recorded at btm in central java. these results supported wardana 112 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 105-115 and widyarti et (2015), wulandari r (2017), which established that non-performing financing is positively correlated with performance. however, fitriyah & sholikhin (2019) disagreed with these studies, stating that npf is negatively correlated with roa. fdr_system and bopo_system have a significance level of .000, implying they affect profitability when used with information technology systems. the car_system with a regression coefficient of -.006, t value of 5.280, and a significance level of 0.540 and npf_system with a 0.073 coefficient, at-value of 1.327 and a significance level of 0.190 negatively affect performance. the moderating variables, including fdr_system and bopo_system, affect roa btm. the results are also in line with the results of research conducted mulla et al. (2019), (oyewole et al., 2013) and (siddik et al., 2016) and supported this study, stating that adopting e-banking affected profitability. 4. conclusion this study showed that fdr, bopo, car, npf_tran, fdr_system, bopo_system, car_system, and npf_system are positively correlated with roa. fdr, bopo, and car had a significance level of .000 and npf_trans 0.007, implying they affect profitability. fdr_system and bopo_system also positively and significantly affect roa except for the car_system and npf_system. future studies should utilize other variables, including net operating margin (nom), btm age, and btm ownership. this adjustment is expected to increase the r square with near-perfect results. references adriani, z., joeliaty, hilmiana, & yunizar.

inflation doi: https://doi.org/10.28918/ ijibec.v3i1.1797 jel: g20, g21 abstract this study aims to determine the effect of rupiah exchange rate on the us dollar (us dollar) and inflation on mudharabah deposits of islamic banking in indonesia. this research is a descriptive quantitative study with secondary data. this study took samples at islamic commercial banks and islamic business units from january 2013 to december 2017. the analysis technique used was multiple linear regression analysis. before conducting regression testing, the data were tested by classical assumption test, namely normality test, multicollinearity test, autocorrelation test, and heteroscedasticity test. the results in this study are the first rupiah exchange rate has a significant effect on mudharabah deposits in a positive direction. this means that if rupiah exchange rate increases the impact on community activities in investing in mudharabah deposits increases. the second is that iinflation has no significant effect on mudharabah deposits, but has a relationship with a positive direction. this means that if the inflation increases, the impact on community activities in investing mudharabah deposits also increases. third, rupiah exchange rate and inflations are simultaneously affect on the mudharabah deposits of islamic banking in the amount of 59.9%. the implication is that the high rupiah exchange rate situation attracts investors to invest in mudharabah deposits. the increase in the rupiah against the us dollar tends to cause multiplier effect which results in rising prices of commodity goods. high prices of commodity goods cause macro consumption to decrease, too because people tend to be efficient in consumption. an analysis the rupiah exchange rates effect against the

3(1) june 2019, 61-69 1. introduction the growth of islamic banking has always increased from the beginning of the year from the emergence of islamic banking in indonesia. the growth of islamic banking is characterized by the increasing number of islamic banking assets from year to year. figure 1. total assets islamic banking (source: islamic banking statistics, processed 2018) islamic banking continues to experience total assets enhancement from 2012 to 2017 indicating that indonesian people’s interest in islamic banking is increasing. the products both in the collection and distribution of funds in islamic banking are carried out with various islamic contracts. in fund collection products, banks are generally divided into demand deposits, savings and time deposits. one product of islamic banking fund raising is mudharabah deposits. deposits in islamic banking still dominate the set of third party funds (tpf). as of june 2018 the third party funds of islamic banking with a composition of 57.42% of mudharabah deposits, 29.81% savings, 12.77% current account. this percentage is from 348.38 trillion in total dpk (www.ojk.do.id) the total collection of islamic banking mudharabah deposits in 2013-2017 is always increasing. the mudharabah deposit fund product is an investment product that is quite attractive to banks because the period of taking by the customer is longer and determined. therefore that banks try to increase the collection of funds from mudharabah deposits. figure 2. total mudharabah deposits (source: islamic banking statistics, processed 2018) mudharabah deposits are characterized by macroeconomic factors, such as inflation, the bi rate, changes in the rupiah exchange rate against foreign currencies, especially the us dollar, gross domestic product (gdp), and so on. meanwhile, the economic conditions in indonesia in recent years have experienced significant changes. one of the macroeconomic factors experiencing a significant change was the decline in the rupiah exchange rate against the us dollar. the development of the rupiah depreciation against the us dollar can be seen in the following graph. 63international journal of islamic business and economics 3(1) june 2019, 61-69 figure 3. development of the rupiah exchange rate against the us dollar (source: islamic banking statistics, processed 2018) according to sukirno (2004: 38), verdelhan (2010) exchange rate of foreign exchange will determine the return on real investment. the impact on banks in general is that these conditions reduce people’s interest in saving their funds in banks, both savings and time deposits. this situation also has an impact on islamic banking. weakening of the rupiah exchange rate against the us dollar has an impact on rising prices of goods in indonesia, especially imported goods or goods whose raw materials are imported from abroad. according to stiglitz & greenwald (2003) that the rise in prices of some commodities both goods and services as a whole is called inflation (karim, 2012). according to iskandar (2014), gul., irshad & zaman (2011), reinforced by the opinion of anbar & alper (2011), inflation affects the amount of deposits of conventional banks and islamic banking. based on the description of the background above, this research has a novelty where sharia banks that have distinctiveness use the profit sharing system in their deposits (their business) does not affect inflation. 2. literature review and hypoteshis iskandar and firdaus (2014) talk about the influence of interest rates, inflation, and the exchange rate of the rupiah against mudharabah deposits and conventional bank deposits for 2008-2012. the results of this study are: (1) inflation and the interest rate affect significant deposits in islamic and conventional banking. inflation and interest rates negatively affect deposits in islamic banks, but it has a positive effect on conventional bank deposits. this means that the increase in inflation and exchange rates will reduce the amount of deposits in islamic banks; on the contrary this increase will raise the amount of deposits in conventional banking. if there is an inflation which effect on people’s declining purchasing power where the majority of the money needs to fulfill consumption activities, the community automatically withdraws the funds in the bank. if sbi (bank indonesia certificate) interest rate increases, the behavior of the customers is still influenced by the interest rate so that the conditions are inversely proportional to the mudharabah deposits, if sbi (bank indonesia certificate) increases, the people prefer to save their money in conventional banks so that it has an impact on islamic bank mudharabah deposits (decrease). if the level of profit sharing in islamic banks increases, then mudharabah deposits will also increase. similarly, the rupiah exchange rate will affect the deposits of mudharabah deposits. where if the rupiah exchange rate decreases (weakens) against the dollar, it has an impact on people’s purchasing power, purchasing power is reduced so that what happens is the community will withdraw their money in the bank to meet their daily needs (consumption needs). novianto and hadiwidjojo (2014), research in order to analyze various factors that influence the collection of deposits in the form of mudharabah deposits in islamic banks in indonesia in 64 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 61-69 2005-2013. analyzed by the vector auto regression (var) method, the results of the study show that inflation has no significant effect on mudharabah deposits. inflation is not very influential in islamic banks because the system uses a system or contract for profit sharing. the society in placing or storing their funds in islamic banks is not only aimed at gaining profit. the enthusiasm for mutual help in kindness and the belief of the muslim community that bank interest containing elements of usury is prohibited is another reason the community places the funds in islamic banks. muliawati and maryati (2016), this study aims to test and analyze the effect of inflation, exchange rates, bi rate and proportional profit sharing from mudharabah deposits at syariah mandiri bank in 2007-2012. the data were analyzed by multiple linear regression (ols) method. the results of this study indicate that the inflation variable does not significantly affect mudharabah deposits. variable exchange rates have a significant negative effect on mudharabah deposits. most people do not make an inflation factors as their determinant in saving or withdrawing their funds in islamic banking in the form of mudharabah deposits, but the exchange rate is just the opposite. maulana (2015) aims to analyze how the effect of profit sharing, inflation and liquidity levels on mudharabah deposits of islamic commercial banks registered with bi in 2011-2014.this study uses multiple linear regression analysis. the results of the partial study show that: inflation has a negative effect and not significant on the amount of deposits from mudharabah deposits 2.1 mudharabah deposits islamic banking products in addition to current accounts and savings which are included in the collection of funds are deposits. unlike the other two types of deposits, where deposits contain elements longer term (maturity) and can be withdrawn after maturity. likewise, interest rates or profit sharing are relatively higher than the two previous types of deposits (goodhart, 2008), (danupranata, 2013), (ali et al., 2012), (yulianto & sholikhah, 2016), (shin, 2008), (hilman, 2016). based on law no. 10 of 1998 concerning changes to law no. 7 of 1992 concerning banking, time deposits are deposits whose withdrawals can be made at certain times according to the agreement between the depositor and the bank concerned. time deposits are deposits with a type or type of predetermined time period. the time period varies from 1, 2, 3, 12, 18 to even 24 months (danupranata, 2013). 2.2 kurs exchange rates according to frankel (2005), k rugman and maurice (2000), allayannis & ofek (2001), amuedo-dorantes & pozo (2004), phylaktis & ravazzolo (2005) the exchange rate is the price of a country’s currency against another country or the currency of a country expressed in other countries’ currencies. according to sukirno (2004: 22), the exchange rate is a foreign exchange value that indicates the amount of domestic currency needed to obtain a unit of foreign currency. according to krugman and maurice (2000), levy-yeyati & sturzenegger (2005), choudhri & hakura (2006), the exchange rate created by market forces will change every time the values of one of the two components of the currency change. a currency will tend to be more valuable if demand becomes greater than the available supply. the exchange rate will be reduced if demand is less than the available supply. 2.3 inflation inflation is the tendency of prices to rise in general and continuously over a certain period. if the inflation rate increases, conventional banking deposits will decline (meija, 2014), (friedman, & schwartz, 2008), (woodford, 2011), (minella et al., 2003). 65international journal of islamic business and economics 3(1) june 2019, 61-69 inflation is a process of continually increasing various prices and generally relating to a market mechanism caused by various factors including the increased consumption of the community or the instability of goods distribution (saragih, 2016). inflation stability is one of the prerequisites for the creation of a continuous economic growth in order to improve people’s welfare. inflation is unstable and the tendency is high has a negative impact on socio-economic conditions in the community. the high inflation making people’s living standards decline due to lower real income. while the volatility of inflation makes economic players faced with conditions of uncertainty. figure 4. research framework in accordance with the objectives of the research and the above framework, the research hypothesis can be formulated as follows: h 1 : inflation affects the growth of islamic banking mudharabah deposits h 2 : the rupiah exchange rate against the us dollar has an effect on the growth of islamic banking mudharabah deposits 3. research method this study uses multiple linear regression analysis. the independent variables in this study are: inflation and the rupiah / exchange rate against the us dollar. the inflation formula used is as follows: inf = (ihk n) – (ihk n-1) x 100% (ihk n-1) inf : inflation ihk n : consumer price index (ihk) month in question ihk n-1 : consumer price index (ihk) previous month while the rupiah exchange rate is measured in the middle exchange rate. middle rate = sell rate + buy rate 2 while the dependent variable in this study is mudharabah deposits. the data used is the development of the number of mudharabah deposits from 2013 to 2017 obtained from the annual islamic banking statistics publication report. jd_m = a + b 1 kurs + b 2 inf + e r where: jd_m = mudharabah deposits a = constant 66 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 61-69 kurs = rupiah exchange rate against us dollar inf = inflation b 1, b 2 = regression coefficient e r = error 4. results and discussion regression analysis in this research is a measuring tool to measure how the influence of the independent variable on the dependent variable. in this study multiple linear regression analysis is used to determine the effect of the rupiah exchange rate and inflation on easy-to-deposit deposits. the results of multiple linear regression analysis are as follows: table 1. results of multiple linear regression analysis t test result information t count t table sig. hypothesis result rupiah exchange rate 9,487 2,00247 0,000 accept h a take effect inflation 0,698 2,00247 0,488 accept h 0 no effect source: data processed 2018 4.1 the effect of the rupiah exchange rate on mudharabah deposits the effect of the rupiah exchange rate on mudharabah deposits in islamic banking in indonesia in 2013-2017. the results of the t test on the rupiah exchange variable obtained the probability of sig of 0,000. sig value <0.05 (0,000 <0,05) and t count > t table (9,487> 2,00247) then the decision is h0 rejected and ha accepted, means insignificant which means that inflation does not partially affect mudharabah deposits. the high rupiah exchange rate situation attracts investors to invest in mudharabah deposits. the increase of the rupiah against the us dollar tends to cause multiplier effect which results in rising prices of commodity goods. the high prices of commodity goods cause macro consumption to decrease, because people tend to be efficient in consumption. declining consumption activity results in economic activity, for example the trade sector is sluggish, so people, who have a lot of money, prefer to save money in the bank, usually in the form of deposits. the exchange rate of rupiah has a significant effect on mudharabah deposits in accordance with iskandar and firdaus’s research (2014); which states that the rupiah exchange rate has a positive and significant effect on mudharabah deposits. this result is also incompatible with muliawati and maryati (2016) that the exchange rate has a negative effect on mudharabah deposits. this result is also not in accordance with sukirno’s theory (2004: 38) which states that foreign exchange rates will determine the returns on real investments. the impact on banks in general is that these conditions reduce people’s interest in saving their funds in banks, both savings and deposits. 4.2 effect of inflation on mudharabah deposits the effect of the inflation rate on mudharabah deposits. the results of the t test on the inflation variable obtained the probability of sig of 0,000. sig value <0.05 (0.488 <0.05) and t count < t table (0.698 < 2.00247) then the decision is h 0 accepted and h a rejected, that is not significant which means that the inflation does not partially affect mudharabah deposits. the inflation even though it has no significant effect. this fact relates to transactions in islamic banking which tend to use a profit sharing the system where the small division of the results of the business between the parties that make the agreement depends on the results of the business that really obtained mudharib (manager). 67international journal of islamic business and economics 3(1) june 2019, 61-69 the inflation has no significant effect on mudharabah deposits is not in accordance with iskandar and firdaus’s (2014) study which states that inflation has a significant effect on mudharabah deposits. but this result is also in accordance with the results of the research of muliawati and maryati (2016); maulana (2015); novianto and hadiwidjodjo (2014) which stated that inflation has no significant effect on mudharabah deposits. while the simultaneous test results are as follows: table 2. f test result information f count f table sig. hipotesis result rupiah exchange rate and inflation 45,129 3,158843 0,000 terima h a take effect simultaneously source: data processed 2018 the simultaneous test results with the f test on the variable exchange rate of the rupiah against the us dollar and inflation are obtained by a probability of sig of 0,000. sig value <0.05 (0,000 <0,05) and f count> f table (45,129> 3,158843) then the decision is ho rejected and ha accepted, that is significant which means the rupiah exchange rate against the us dollar and inflation have a simultaneous effect on mudharabah deposits. this test also means that the regression model is appropriate for describing mudharabah deposits. the coefficient of determination test results is as follows: table 3. the coefficient of determination test results (r2) model summaryb model r r square adjusted r square std. error of the estimate 1 ,783a ,613 ,599 17141,433 a. predictors: (constant), inf, kurs b. dependent variable: jd_m source: spss processed data, 2018 based on the table above, the determination coefficient of adj r2 (adjusted r square) is 0.599 or 59.9%. this shows that the rupiah exchange rate and inflation had an effect of 59.9% on mudharabah deposits in islamic banking in indonesia. while the remaining 40.1% is influenced by other variables that are not mentioned in the study. 5. conclusion based on the results of data analysis and discussion, the author draws conclusions that can be drawn from the study of the influence of the rupiah exchange rate and inflation of mudharabah deposits is as follows: the first, the rupiah exchange rate has a significant effect on mudharabah deposits in a positive direction. this means that the increase in the rupiah exchange rate against the us dollar has increasingly had an impact on community activities in investing mudharabah deposits is also increased. the high rupiah exchange rate situation attracts investors to invest in mudharabah deposits. the increase in the rupiah against the us dollar tends to cause multiplier effect which results in rising prices of commodity goods. high prices of commodity goods cause macro consumption to decrease, too because people tend to be efficient in consumption. declining consumption activity results in economic activity, for example the sluggish trade sector, therefore that people who have a lot of money, prefer to save their money in banks, usually in the form of deposits. the second, inflation does not have a significant effect on mudharabah deposits. this 68 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 61-69 fact relates to islamic banking transactions which typically use a profit sharing system. the profit sharing system where the small share of the results of the business depends on the results of the business that mudharib (manager) actually obtained. acknowledgment we are as the

(2010) said that islamic work ethics positively impacts on good organizational functions and puts islamic work ethics in the organization's operations will result a sustainable organizational development, increase customers satisfaction and shown good business representation. ali and al-owaihan (2008) said that the successful achievement of islamic work ethics will lead to better performance and broader adequacy. in addition, many researchers guarantee that islamic work ethic improves the quality and performance of both individuals and organizations (ahmad, 2011: ali and al-owaihan, 2008: husin, 2012: jalil et al. 2010: kumar and rose, 2010). commitment is the individual expression and reflects the fundamental standard values of individual existence. allen and mayer (1990) define organizational commitment as a psychological revelation of an organization in hiring its employees. commitment can be defined as a pressure that connects individuals to relevant actions to achieve certain targets. commitment can be seen from employee loyalty in an organization, motivation to achieve organizational goals involves itself in the organization. meyer and allen (1990) introduced a three-dimensional model of organizational commitment to simplify the concept of organizational commitment, namely affective commitment, normative commitment and continuance commitment that describes emotional bonds, perceived perceptions and sunk costs that are clear in an organization. according to jaros (2007), affective commitment is based on the emotional ties built by workers because of positive work experience. strong affective commitment is a form of worker confidence to stay within an organization. haar and spell (2004) state that workers have strong affective commitment because they hope that their individual social needs are met. continuance commitment is based on the assumption of 32 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 30-39 financial change between workers and organizations (meyer et.al :002). continuance commitment explains the strength of individual intentions to keep working for the organization because of a number of investments such as time, effort and friendship that must be sacrificed when leaving the organization. normative commitment is the feeling of staying in an organization because of an individual's sense of obligation and moral responsibility against the organization. normative commitment is the result of the process of socialization in organizational culture. according to sager et al. (1998: 255), turnover intention reflects the individual desire to leave the organization and seek alternative employment. this is described as the thought of going out, looking for another job, and the desire to leave the organization. robbins (1996: 18-19), explains that turnover can occur voluntarily (voluntary turnover) or involuntary (involuntary turnover). voluntary turnover or quit is the employee's decision to leave the organization voluntarily due to factors of how attractive the current job is, and the availability of other alternative jobs. conversely, involuntary turnover describes the decision of the employer to stop working relationships and is uncontrollable for employees who experience it. according to zeffane (1994), the factors that influence the occurrence of turnover come from external and internal, external factors such as the labor market, and internal factors such as work space, wages, work skills, supervision, personal characteristics of employees such as intelligence, attitudes, past times, gender, interests, age and duration of work and individual reactions to their work. meanwhile, according to mowday in (triaryati, 2002), the factors that can influence turnover intentions include job attitude, personality, biodemographic, economic factors, personal factors, job characteristics, rewards systems, supervision, and group relations. yousef which examines islamic work ethics on muslim employees in the united arab emirates with the title "organizational commitment as a mediator of the relationship between islamic work ethics and attitudes toward organizational change". this study uses islamic work ethics variables, organizational commitment, and attitudes toward organizational change using analysis tools such as path analysis. the results of path analysis indicate that islamic work ethics have a positive influence on commitment and job satisfaction, and are moderators of the relationship between them. so, the more individuals have a high commitment to islamic work ethics (emphasizing hard work, dedication to work, cooperation), the higher perceived job satisfaction, and the stronger the commitment to the organization they have. hayati (2012: 272-277) in "islamic work ethic: the role of intrinsic motivation, job satisfaction, organizational commitment and job performance" also examined islamic work ethics and its relation to intrinsic motivation, job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and performance. as a result, islamic work ethics has a greater influence on intrinsic motivation and organizational commitment, compared to the effect on job satisfaction and performance. so, the islamic principle that is trusted by the individual will be embedded into intrinsic motivation in him, and this intrinsic motivation has the strongest influence on achieving individual job satisfaction. furthermore, rokhman (2010: 21-27) in his research entitled "the effect of islamic work ethics on work outcomes" analyze using instrument from ali (1992: 507-519) that there is a positive and significant influence between islamic work ethics on job satisfaction and commitment, but not significantly on turnover intention. this research states that islamic work ethics is very important and has a strong influence on job satisfaction and organizational commitment. another of previous study that investigated the relationship between nik, at el, (2004) international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 30-39 33 investigated the relationships between islamic work ethics and organizational commitment. organizational commitment consists of three dimensions: affective, continuance and normative commitments. the study samples came from 227 employees from several branches local bank. the results show that these dimensions have direct, positive and significant effect with islamic work ethics. specifically, affective commitments has high correlation with the latter than continuance or normative commitment. another study that discussed islamic work ethics was also carried out by salem (2012: 64-78) in "the effects of islamic individuals' ethics on organizational commitments of employees in libyan public banks". this study uses variables of islamic work ethics, affective commitment, continuous commitment, continuous commitment and demographic characteristics using a questionnaire instrument made by yousef (2000: 513-537). the research was aimed at employees of public banks in libya. the results of the regression analysis show that the influence of ethical positive islamic individuals with a level of confidence of 0.05. the results of this assessment indicate that individual islamic ethics have a positive influence on affective commitment, continuous commitment and normative commitment. the concept of islamic work ethics on job satisfaction, organizational commitment and turnover is not limited to literature and research only, but also need to be applied by islamic microfinance institutions. therefore, this study seeks to analyze the influence of islamic work ethics on organizational commitment, job satisfaction and turnover intention in islamic microfinance institutions (lkms) in pekalongan, indonesia. 2. research method 2.1. samples the type of data used in this study are primary data and secondary data. data

data in the form of ali (1992 numbers and analysis using statistics. islamic work ethics used instruments developed by: 512). job satisfaction used the dubinsky and harley instruments (1986: 40-41). while organizational commitment used a questionnaire instrument developed by meyer and allen (1990: 6-8) and turnover intentions adapted from previous research (hom and griffeth, 1991: 350-366). the scale of points used is from a scale of 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). the collected data was analyzed using statistical package for the social sciences (spss) 16.0. while secondary data is obtained from journals, articles, previous research and information from various national and international publications relating to islamic work ethics and related topics. the analysis used descriptive statistics such as frequency and percentage that show the main characteristics of the sample. to analyze hypotheses, this study used simple regression analysis as the main analytical method. from the analysis technique, it can be seen the influence of islamic work ethics on organizational commitment, job satisfaction and turnover intentions of islamic microfinance institutions (lkms) in pekalongan. 34 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 30-39 3. results and discussions 3.1. test validity based on the results of the test

4(1) june 2020, 30-39 37 from the results of this research, it can be seen that the islamic work ethics of employees in lkms pekalongan can improve job satisfaction, organizational commitment (affective commitment, continuous commitment, and normative commitment), and turnover intentions significantly. this research shows that islamic work ethics has a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction. islam is a theological impulse that teaches character education that will affect satisfaction in work. three important and influential things are the social aspects that are applied in organizational life, justice and humility and involvement in economic activities. this research also found that islamic work ethics will significantly affect intense turnover. this means that the application of islamic work ethics to employees in lkms pekalongan will reduce the desire to move to another place. in this research proves that the application of islamic work ethics also increases the organizational commitment of employees in lkms pekalongan both affective commitment, continuous commitment and normative commitment. increasing the affective commitment of employees in lkms pekalongan will have implications for the reduced intense turnover and motivation of employees to make meaningful contributions to the organization. increased continuous commitment will have implications for psychological, physical health and career path so that these employees have physical and psychological prosperity. increasing normative commitment will have consequences on employee productivity such as employee attendance, performance, and ownership of obligations and duties. therefore to improve job satisfaction, organizational commitment and reduce intense turnover, the islamic work ethics can be one of the focus of solutions that can be applied to lkms in pekalongan. suggestions regarding the methods used to improve the islamic work ethics in lkms in pekalongan are as follows: 1. applying the values of islamic work ethics as part of the corporate culture. if there is a culture that is not following islamic values, it can be considered to replace, so that the culture is adapted to the values of the islamic work ethics. 2. applying islamic work ethics as an indicator in measuring employee performance and development. the values contained in islamic work ethics are universal which can be applied to everyone. the value of islamic work ethics can be done to evaluate employee performance. if there are employees who apply the islamic work ethics, then lkms provides appreciation in form of promotions or rewards. the company also provides opportunities and facilities for employees to improve the value of the islamic work ethic in themselves. increasing the value of islamic work ethics such as providing time for employees to pray on time, places of worship and facilities and infrastructure such as a library containing islamic readings. 3. consideration for recruiting employees. the character of prospective employees who have the value of islamic work ethics is considered as an added value because this reflects high job satisfaction, good organizational commitment and low willingness to move to other places. 38 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 30-39 references ali, a.

primary data from questionnaires filled by muslim batik entrepreneurs. the ols method was applied to analyze the total of 30 samples using spss. in this analysis, there were two things having strong significant correlations to production ethics namely (1) the application of islamic values of the entrepreneurs on environmental sustainability and (2) the acknowledgement of the entrepreneurs

june 2018, 3 9 5 040 1. introduction the dilemma of current economic development faced onto two sides. one side of the economic development pursues the welfare of society, and the other is the implications. one of the environmental implications is the unresolved pollution (karsa, 2008). pollution issue becomes a grand topic worldwide, including indonesia called out by national geographic in 2016 as a state of waste emergency (suara merdeka 2017: 5). even though indonesia already has a clear regulation on such matter in the constitution no. 32/2009 about environmental protection and management as well as the regulation of minister of environment no. 13/2012 about implementation guidelines of 3r (reduce, reuse and recycle). the constitution no. 32/2009 states that the environment is defined by the unity of space with all matters, power, circumstances, and organisms including human beings and their behavior, which affect the nature itself, the survival of life, and the welfare of human beings and other organisms (article 1). by this understanding, environment has several elements: (1) human and their behavior, (2) environmental conditions, (3) process of survival and (4) welfare obtained by humans and other creatures. environment is a vital place in the cycle of human life. human cannot live without the environment. therefore, polluting the environment will render direct impact on health, aesthetics, economic losses, and disruption of natural ecosystems (rahmadi, 2011: 3). in the context of local economic growth, producers are required to be responsible and accountable as in the hadith mentioned “every one of you is a leader and every leader will be held accountable for what he leads” (lidwa pusaka, hadith no. 844). from this statement, basic demands for producers are material and moral demands. the material demands will obviously be ruled by existing regulations (hardjasoemantri, 1992) while the moral demands are from perceptions that generate awareness. pekalongan district, central java province is an area with many batik producers. every day, tens of tons of batik fabric and cloth are exported to other regions in indonesia. in pekalongan, simbangkulon (one of administrative villages in buaran sub-district, pekalongan district) is the object of this research based on three reasons: (1) the religiosity where the majority are educated muslims, (2) the large size of batik producers where more than 30 batik entrepreneurs take place (maladzi, july 6, 2017), and (3) the strategic geographical location where the border of the district and the city of pekalongan located. therefore, all of sociological phenomenon are often used as reference and sampling parameters of research. recently, the sick environmental conditions demand the more established research. to find a solution, the anthropocentric paradigm ansich is certainly not enough but requires a pure awareness and spiritual appreciation. each individual must understand religious values and morality (ulumuna, 2012). the awareness to overcome the crisis is crucial, especially by exploring the spiritual religious values such as values of ecotheology. quddus (2012) contends that integral environmental insights of ethical-theologic and ethical-anthropologic dimensions can be the guiding principles in nature management. according to him, the relation between the three poles (god, nature and human) must walk in conformable, balance and harmony. the removal of one of these poles will cause imbalance that leads to environmental exploitation and crises. globally, there is an ecological crisis depicted at least in three forms of environmental degradations: (1) global warming, (2) depletion of the ozone layer, and (3) acid rain (quddus, 2012). thus, the religious sensitivity is needed and expected to generate modern ecological solutions holistically. from the perspective of religion, the solution regarding to the issue of environmental reality can be formulated for the benefit and maslahah of all people. international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 3 9 5 0 41 this research formulated the perspective of muslim batik entrepreneurs in simbangkulon, pekalongan regency, related to production ethics with environmental insights. the ethical influence of batik producers on environmental conditions in pekalongan was analyzed using simple linear regression model. in addition, this study also analyzed the correlation between production ethics and environmental conditions. 2. research methods this study used ordinary least square (ols) from simple linear regression analysis to investigate the effects of production ethics with environmental insights of muslim businessmen in simbangkulon, pekalongan. this method is the mostly employed by researchers in analyzing the relationship between variables. the simple formula of linear regression can be written as follows: (1) where y is the dependent variable, x is the independent variable, a is the constant, b is the regression coefficient (slope), and e is the size of standard error. in practice, this method requires several tests before processing the regression model. some of classical assumption tests are tests of data validity, data reliability, normality, multicollinearity, heteroscedasticity and autocorrelation. this study made muslim batik entrepreneurs located in simbangkulon, pekalongan district, as research objects. data were collected by distributing questionnaires to respondents from may to august 2017. a total of 30 samples were collected for analysis. variables assigned were ethical production with environmental insight as independent variables and environmental conditions as a dependent variable. among the respondents, there were 8 females (26.7%) and 22 males (73.3%). based on the education level, there was one (3.3%) respondent not graduating elementary school, 6 people (20%) graduated from primary school, 10 people (33.3%) graduated from junior high school, 10 people (33.3%) graduated from senior high school, and the rest of 3 people (10.0%) had a bachelor degree. from marital status, there were 17 people (56.7%) already married, and the rest of 13 people (43.3%) were single. there were 16 respondents (53.3%) not having children, 3 respondents (10%) with one or two children, and 8 respondents (26.7%) with more than three children. then, in terms of age, 50% of respondents were aged between 21-30 years, 30% were between 31-40 years, and only one respondent was more than 60 years old. moreover, 8 out of 30 respondents (26.7%) had a background in islamic boarding school. based on the motivation, 13 people (43.3%) categorized financial problems as their motivation, 33.3% intended to create employment, and those continuing the family business were 23.3%. then, the results of questionnaires from respondents also indicated that the majority of muslim batik businessmen (73.3%) were not aware of 3r information. this was unfortunate because the knowledge of 3r is substantial to preserve the environment. also, 70% of respondents said that they did not possess a waste shelter for the residues of the batik production indicating that they did not understand the importance of shelter waste production. furthermore, 93% of respondents also stated that their batik waste was not reprocessed or reused rather directly dispose it to the river. then, the majority of respondents (93.3%) mentioned that their batik waste was not made into handcrafts. analysis of production ethics applied by muslim batik entrepreneurs using questionnaires was distributed and collected to attain the answers based on their own perception and to international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 3 9 5 042 determine the frequency regarding to the production ethics with environmental awareness and environmental conditions using likert scale, where the scales weighed as follow: a) answer 1 for stating very bad. b) answer 2 for stating bad. c) answer 3 for stating quite well. d) answer 4 for stating good. e) answer 5 for stating very good. an overview of variables affecting the ethical production with environmental insight is described as follows. the average muslim batik entrepreneur stated that the understanding of ethics in producing batik was “good”, then the islamic teachings on environmental sustainability was also “good”. answers to the question of muslim batik entrepreneurs in terms of application of islamic teachings on sustainability was also “good”. meanwhile, the understanding of the impact of batik waste, from production process, of muslim batik entrepreneurs was “quite well”. also, the understanding of muslim batik entrepreneurs about 3r information was “quite well”. then, the understanding of muslim batik entrepreneurs associated with the direct disposal of batik waste carelessly to the river was “bad”. batik entrepreneurs had a “good” understanding on the availability of shelters of batik waste. their understanding on recycling batik waste was “quite well”. the acknowledgement of respondents about the role of local government in handling batik waste was also “quite well” while the understanding of muslim batik entrepreneurs about the government counseling about batik waste was “good”. 3. results 3.1. validity test and data reliability validity test was performed to determine the accuracy of the instrument representing the purpose or the content of measurements. this study employed standard data validity based on critical value table of pearson correlation. as commonly known, the number of samples (n) used was 30 thus the degree of freedom is 28 (n-2). then, r table obtained for pearson correlation coefficient (product moment) with significance level 0.05 was equal to 0.361. therefore, if the correlation of the calculation was more than 0.361 then the conclusion was valid, and vice versa. table 1 shows the results of data validity test based on answers from respondent. table 1. data validity test questions r calculated r table sig. value explanation x 1 0.509 0.361 0.00 valid x 2 0.548 0.361

the value of r calculated > r table for all items specified that the all research items were valid. then, this study utilized the cronbach alpha test to see whether the measurements yield consistent results by using spss. reliability test was done by comparing the actual and minimum values (0.6) of cronbach alpha. in other words, if the cronbach alpha value calculated from spss was greater than 0.6 then it is concluded that the questionnaire was reliable, and vice versa. table 2 shows the cronbach alpha test output from spss. table 2. data reliability test variables cronbach’s alpha explanation production ethics 0.783 reliable environmental condition 0.793 reliable based on the results of reliability test in table 2, it is recognized that the cronbach’s alpha was equal to 0.783, hence it can be concluded that the research instruments measuring the variable of production ethics with environmental awareness were reliable. table 2 above also describes the value of cronbach alpha of 0.793 for environmental condition measurement variable, thus the variable was reliable as well. 3.2. items affecting production ethics based on table 1 above, it is clearly presented that there were 10 instruments in production ethics variables. the relationship strength between each instrument and production ethics (x) is explained as follow: 1) the correlation coefficient between x 1 (understanding of production ethics) and production ethics was 0.509 indicating that the understanding of production ethics had a strong positive correlation with the production ethics. 2) the improvement in islamic teachings related to sustainability (x 2 ) had a strong significant correlation to production ethics with a coefficient of 0.548. 3) application of islamic teachings (x 3 ) had a strong significant correlation as well to production ethics with a coefficient of 0.772. 4) the understanding of the muslim entrepreneurs on dire impact of waste (x 4 ) had a fairly strong, significant correlation with production ethics with a coefficient of 0.401. international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 3 9 5 044 5) the understanding of muslim businessmen on 3r information (x 5 ) had a strong, significant correlation with production ethics with a coefficient of 0.481. 6) the understanding of muslim entrepreneurs on disposing batik waste into the river (x 6 ) had a strong, significant correlation with production ethics with a coefficient of 0.737. 7) the understanding of muslim entrepreneurs on batik waste shelters (x 7 ) had a strong, significant correlation with production ethics with a coefficient of 0.693. 8) the understanding of muslim entrepreneurs on recycling batik waste (x 8 ) had a insignificant correlation with production ethics with a coefficient of 0.574. 9) the understanding of muslim entrepreneurs on local government responsible in handling batik waste (x 9 ) had a strong, significant correlation with production ethics with a coefficient of 0.509. 10) the understanding of muslim entrepreneurs on the local government counseling about batik waste (x 10 ) had an insignificant correlation with production ethics with a coefficient of 0.751. from the explanation above, the conclusion is that the indicators of production ethics (items affecting production ethics) were correlated positively and significantly to production ethics. in addition, the items influencing production ethics did not have weak correlations with production ethics. the items correlating the lowest to production ethics were the comprehension of muslim batik entrepreneurs (1) on the dire impact of batik waste and (2) on 3r information. then, there were two items with strong and significant correlation to production ethics: (1) the application of islamic values of environmental sustainability and (2) the understanding of muslim batik entrepreneurs on the counseling of batik waste management held by local government. 3.3. items affecting environmental conditions meanwhile, the relationship of instruments on environmental conditions (y) can be explained as follows: 1) increasing the role of muslim entrepreneurs in preserving environment (y 1 ) was associated strongly and significantly with environmental conditions (coeff. = 0.716). 2) the increase of dire impact of batik waste on the environment (y 2 ) was correlated strongly and significantly with environmental conditions (coeff. = 0.650). 3) the sense of justice from batik waste production (y 4 ) was associated very strongly and significantly with environmental conditions (coeff. = 0.796). 4) the surrounding environmental conditions (y 5 ) had a strong and significant correlation with environmental conditions (coeff. = 0.455). 5) the water condition of the river in surrounding environment (y 6 ) was associated very strongly and significantly with environmental conditions (coeff. = 0.855). 6) the condition of the well water in the neighborhood (y 7 ) was associated very strongly and significantly with environmental conditions coeff. = (0.675). from the explanation above, it can be concluded that all independent variables (items affecting environmental conditions) were correlated positively and significantly with environmental conditions. furthermore, conditions of river water had the highest correlation to environmental conditions which is equal to 0.855. international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 3 9 5 0 45 3.4. the effect of production ethics on environmental conditions this section discusses the implications of production ethics on environmental conditions. regression analysis is commonly used to determine the effect of independent variables (x) on the dependent variable (y). the independent variable x was the production ethic including ten (10) questions mentioned above while the dependent variable y represented the environmental conditions including seven (7) questions. meanwhile, the method commonly used to estimate the regression model is the ordinary least square (ols). in practice, this method requires several tests before applying regression model. some of the usual classical assumptions are as follows: 1) normality test the normality test aims to test whether in the regression model, residual variable has a normal distribution. this study used kolmogorov-smirnov test to conduct normality test. table 3 shows the spss output from the kolmogorov-smirnov test. table 3. normality test unstandardized predicted value n 30 normal parametersa mean 23.4333333 std. deviation 1.83808530 most extreme differences absolute .124 positive .124 negative -.092 kolmogorov-smirnov z .677 asymp. sig. (2-tailed) .750 based on table 3, the kolmogorov-smirnov z value was 0.677, and asymp. sig. (2-tailed) was 0.750 greater than 0.05 so it can be concluded that the data was normally distributed. 2) multicollinearity test multicollinearity test is performed to test whether the independent variables are correlated each other. if there is a correlation, multicollinearity problem exists in the model. in a proper regression model, independent variables should not be correlated each other. multicollinearity can be seen from (1) the value of tolerance and its opposite (2) variance inflation factor (vif). the cutoff value used to indicate the presence of multicollinearity is when (1) tolerance problem is equal or less than 0.10 and (2) vif more than 10. if not violating the criteria of tolerance level and vif, it can be concluded that there is no multicollinearities between independent variables in the model regression (santosa, 2005). international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 3 9 5 046 table 4. multicollinearity test model unstandardized coefficients collinearity statistics b std. error tolerance vif 1 (constant) 1.022 2.276 production ethics .657 .066 1.000 1.000 a. dependent variable: environmental conditions from table 4, the tolerance value was equal to 1.00 while the vif value equal to 1.00. so it can be said there was no multicollinearity problem between variables of production ethics and environmental condition. 3) heteroscedasticity test the heteroscedasticity test aims to test whether in the regression model there is a variance inequality of residuals from one to another observation. to test heteroscedasticity, this study used glejser test. table 5. heteroscedasticity test model unstandardized coefficients standardized coefficients t sig. b std. error beta 1 (constant) 4.802 4.244 1.131 .267 production ethics -.079 .116 -.127 -.680 .502 a. dependent variable: res2 based on table 5, it is known that the significance value was 0.502 greater than 0.05. therefore, it can be concluded that there was no heteroscedasticity. 4) autocorrelation test the autocorrelation test aims to test whether in the linear regression model, there is an autocorrelation between the sample error in period t with the sample error in period t -1 . this study used durbin watson test for autocorrelation test. table 6. autocorrelation test model r r square adjusted r square std. error of the estimate durbin-watson 1 .882a .779 .771 1.528 1.668 a. predictors: (constant), production ethics b. dependent variable: environmental conditions to know the existence of correlation can be explained as follows. if the durbin watson number is below -2 then there is a positive autocorrelation, if the durbin watson number is between -2 to +2 then there is no autocorrelation, and if the durbin watson number is above +2 then there is negative autocorrelation (santosa, 2005). from table 6, the value of durbin-watson was 1.668 stating that there was no autocorrelation problem. international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 3 9 5 0 47 spss output showed that the classical assumption test of least squares method to analyze the regression model. in table 7, the regression had been successfully performed, thus conclusion presented was accountable. table 7 below shows the estimation coefficients of the regression model to analyze the effect of ethics owned by moslem batik producers on environmental conditions. table 7. regression coefficient model unstandardized coefficients standardized coefficients t sig. b std. error beta 1 (constant) 1.022 2.276 .449 .657 production ethics .657 .066 .882 9.924 .000 a. dependent variable: environmental conditions from table 7, it can be identified that the regression coefficient b shows an effect of ethical production on environmental condition. the linear regression equation based on the result above can be written as follows: (2) where e is the error term. from the linear regression model in equation (2), conclusions are explained as follow. the production ethics had a regression coefficient of 0.657 stating that for a unit increase in this variable, it was predicted to increase the environmental condition by 0.66 units when other variables were constant. in other words, production ethics of muslim batik entrepreneurs in simbangkulon, buaran, pekalongan had a positive influence on the environmental condition as much as 0.66 points. using 0.05 significant level, it is concluded that the coefficients of the ethical variables of production differed significantly from zero because the p-value was equal to 0.000. table 8 below shows the determinant coefficient. table 8. determinant coefficient model r r square adjusted r square std. error of the estimate 1 .882a .779 .771 1.528 a. predictors: (constant), production ethics b. dependent variable: environmental conditions table 8 shows that the r-square value was 0.779 meaning that 77.9% of production ethics of muslim batik entrepreneurs can be explained by environmental conditions in pekalongan. meanwhile, the remaining 22.1% of the production ethics of muslim batik entrepreneurs was influenced by other variables. 4. discussion environmental problem, from time to time, always brings us fascinating ideas, from classical to transcendental ideas. the classical idea is that environmental problems are the results of human actions (surah arrum [41]: 40). in america, this discussion surfaced in the 1960s. rachel carson (1962), lynn white (1967), and garett hardins (1968) have addressed the issue of environmental crises and analyzed some of the causes of the global environmental crisis. one of the causes was international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 3 9 5 048 the anthropocentric paradigm, placing human as center of the universe where the dominant and significant causes were rooted from exploitative and consumptive behavior of mankind (walker, 2009). meanwhile, the transcendental idea invited humans to re-preserve, put and take care into the nature. this view raised ethics and religion as solutions to environmental crisis currently occurring. akhtar (1996), marsuki (2012) mentioned that the future religious agenda urgently needed is to establish sustainable development. where religion has a vital role to persuade humans to preserve the nature they occupy (marsuki, 2012: 28). indonesian intellectuals capture the term of environmental crisis in several terms of discussions, (1) islamic ecoethics, is a term to explain how the islamic economic views the environment. the function of islamic ecoethics is the role of environmental ethics influencing ecological economics, which leads to the inspiration of green economy (amhar, 2013), (2) ecotheology, is an understanding of islam against the environmental crisis derived from the dalil of naqliyah (argument based on the quranic texts/verses). sacred cosmology dalil of naqliyah can contribute positively as guiding principles of nature management. contributions of religion are based on several ecotheology principles i.e. the principles of taukhīd (unity of all creation), amānah-khalīfah (trustworthiness-moral leadership), and ākhirah (responsibility) (quddus, 2012), and (3) environmental ethics, this word is used as a basis for scope differentiation between term of ecology in ecological economics and the term of environment in environmental economics. from such perspective, research on environmental crisis still continues since it has influences on environmental condition of human. 5. conclusion from the description above, this study generates following conclusions. the production ethics with environmental insights applied by muslim batik entrepreneurs in simbangkulon, buaran. pekalongan were as follows. the majority of muslim batik entrepreneurs were unaware of basic knowledge of production ethics including 3r information, the availability of waste shelters, the processing of waste, and batik waste turned into handcrafts. then, there were five indicators of production ethics depicting the good understanding of muslim batik entrepreneurs i.e. the understanding of ethics in producing batik (x 1 ), the understanding of islamic teachings on environmental sustainability (x 2 ), the application of islamic values of environmental sustainability (x 3 ), the understanding of waste shelters (x 7 ) and the understanding of the existing counselling about batik waste held by local government (x 10 ). furthermore, muslim batik entrepreneurs had a poor understanding of batik waste dumped to the river (x 6 ). items affecting the ethics of muslim batik producers in simbangkulon, buaran, pekalongan were indicated by a positive and significant correlations between the indicators of production ethics and the ethics of the entrepreneurs. it was known that two indicators had a very strong significant correlation to production ethics i.e. the producers’ application of islamic values to environmental sustainability and the understanding of the entrepreneurs upon the batik waste counselling from local government. then, there were two things also strongly correlated with environmental conditions i.e. the community justice regarding to batik waste (y 4 ) and the understanding of surrounding river water conditions (y 6 ). the implications of production ethics of muslim batik entrepreneurs in simbangkulon, buaran, pekalongan can be elaborated as follows. production ethics variable had a very strong positive significant correlation on the environmental condition variable that was equal to 0.779 (77.9%). then, for every unit increase on the variable of production ethics was expected to improve the environmental condition variable value by 0.66. in other words, the increase of the comprehension of muslim batik entrepreneurs on production ethics was directly positively proportional with the improvement of the surrounding environmental conditions. international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 3 9 5 0 49 the limitation of this study was the small size of sample used, where only 30 respondents answered the questionnaire correctly. another limitation was that the variables included is limited, thus not generating maximum analysis. hence, for further research it is recommended to use larger sample size and more independent variables (x). meanwhile, based on the results of this research, some suggestions can be given related to the ethics of moslem batik producer production and environmental conditions in simbangkulon administrative village, buaran sub-district, pekalongan district: (a) it is required to increase the basic knowledge of production ethics, especially the insight on how waste can impact the surrounding nature, (b) it is substantial for local government to provide information on 3r (reduce, reuse, and recycle) to batik entrepreneurs in pekalongan, and (c) it is prominent for government to conduct socialization or counselling in order to educate batik producers on how to manage their batik waste properly, and (d) it is vital for government to put more attention on river water conditions in pekalongan. references akhtar, m.

ibrahim & yaya (2015); and velayutham (2014). in their analysis, i did not see a serious effort to link islamic accounting and cash waqf in their studies. vice versa, in several studies of cash waqf, islamic accounting is not so well reviewed. we can see as researched by ibrahim, amir & masron (2013) who only see cash waqf as one of the economic development instruments of muslims; ahmad (2015) who analyzes cash waqf only with a normative approach. against this backdrop, the paper will highlights the use of islamic accounting in medieval and modern times, tracing the development of the cash waqf, exposing islamic accounting as a form of accounting, showing how accounting for the cash waqf has been done in the medieval times as well as in modern times relative to specific waqf mandate(s). the paper concludes with a statement on the indispensability of islamic accounting as far as the cash waqf is concerned. the author is aware that islamic accounting is largely construed as a recent phenomenon, nevertheless, accounting for the ottoman cash waqfs as the paper demonstrates is nothing but islamic accounting.. 2. research method this research belongs to the type of library researh by making islamic accounting and cash waqf as the main object of study discussed. this research data is taken from various literatures that contain islamic accounting and cash waqf. i will tend to analyze the object of research with a normative and historical approach. . 3. results and discussions 3.1. the legitimacy of waqf narrated ibn `umar: “umar bin khattab got some land in khaibar and he went to the prophet (saws) to consult him about it saying, "o allah's messenger (saws) i got some land in khaibar better than which i have never had, what do you suggest that i do with it?" the prophet (saws) said, "if you like you can give the land (corpus) as endowment and give its fruits in charity." so `umar gave it in charity as an endowment on the condition that would not be sold nor given to anybody as a present and not to be inherited, but its yield would be given in charity to the poor people, to the kith and kin, for freeing slaves, for allah's cause, to the travellers and guests; and that there would be no harm if the guardian of the endowment ate from it according international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 146-155 148 to his need with good intention, and fed others without storing it for the future (with a view to becoming rich)” (sahih al-bukhari 2737: book 54, hadith 24). deducible from the above is that the traditional waqf which the prophet acceded to was an endowment of a physical asset exhibiting perpetual characteristics as well as purpose permanence and clarity. this cannot be however categorically said about the cash waqfs as their legitimacy did not come directly from the prophet and their would-be inherent corpus characteristics are questionable. in essence cash is not and has never been the underlying asset for a waqf (keles, 2001). the cash waqfs became prominent during the ottoman caliphate in the 1300’s following an islamic ruling opinion by an imam called zufar in the eight century. 3.2. cash waqfs; its evolution and meaning the corpus of a cashwaqf is cash. in other words, a waqf whose endowment primarily consists of cash is indeed a cashwaqf. operationally, the corpus i.e. cash is invested and the proceeds used in line with the endowers wish and directive, in most cases for charitable purposes. with specific reference to the ottoman cash waqf, the waqf is initiated when a seemingly affluent individual wishing to dedicate his wealth declares his intention publicly through approved legal channels. once the endowment is made, the cash is invested through a process called istiglal, in modern terminologies; a sort of lease, buy back arrangement. such arrangement entails a fund seeking entrepreneur relinquishing his ownership/usufruct right to his property e.g. house, to the waqf in exchange for working/investment capital he needed. the obtained fund is invested by the entrepreneur and this arrangement remains in force for a specified period of time usually a year. thereafter, the entrepreneur can request to assume usufruct rights on the hitherto relinquished property for a rental fee in favour of the waqf which is to be paid for as long as the capital obtained from the waqf is still with him. in most cases, the entrepreneur returns the capital obtained from the waqf within a year and his thus entitled once again to the ownership rights of his property. this process is replicated comprising of a number of fund seeking entrepreneurs and as such the returns emanating from such arrangement constituted the mega profit of the waqf which is then channelled to philanthropic purposes as stipulated by the endower. of course, administrative cum management expenses and other overhead expenses are taking into consideration before the waqf funds are disbursed or better still the endower’s wish(es) is/are carried out. through this process, the corpus (cash) is somewhat maintained and sometimes enhanced if the trustee or waqf management decides to augment the existing corpus by adding some of the profit which are not disbursed. essentially, the waqf was able to protect the corpus, ensure continuity and consequently able to generate income from the property of the entrepreneur who obtained his much needed capital for investment. worthy of note is that the waqfs could not come together in the name of financial cooperation to lend out cash endowments, this restriction helped them preserve their identity as social services organizations as opposed to commercial ones. the entire process is pictorially represented below; 149 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 146-155 figure 1.a classical ottoman cashwaqfkey 1-corpus (cash);2aproperty (ownership rights);2bcash (investment capital);3cash;4a transfer of usufruct right on property;4b-rentfromusufruct for a specified period;5acash (corpus returned);5b-ownershiprights returned;6enhanced waqf subject to management decision to plough back profit or disbursement to waqf purposes less waqf overhead or running cost;isale;iilease;iiibuy back; ivistiglal. the institutionalization as well as development of the cash waqf was not without controversies. the opposers of the cash waqf contended that; lending out the capital to entrepreneurs was tantamount to desecrating allah’s property and as such a sacrilege, this somewhat relates to the corpus immovability argument, they also contended that the istiglal process meant that the endower was not permitted to rescind his decision and revoke his waqf, it was also advanced that the cash waqfs intricacies somewhat attacks the very foundations cum applications of the law of inheritance. another contention was that the corpus i.e. cash is invested through interest bearing mediums as well as the contestable and controversial bay alinah. in fact, the controversies dragged to the later part of the fifteenth century when a consensus was reached in the ottoman empire and the waqf was legalized by the then sultan, murat the 3rd. (cizakca, 2011). the triumph of the cash waqf and its accompanying legality made it quite popular during the ottoman times and subsequent periods. for example, it is reported that approximately 46.13 percent of the entire operational waqfs from the middle of 15th century to middle of 16th century in istanbul were indeed cash oriented. similarly in the 1700’s the number of operational cash waqfs was 761 in bursa from which over 10 percent of the populace benefited from credit facility extensions. even the anatolia and the european regions of the caliphate were not left out as the cash waqfs were visible. particularly in the 1500’s, the ottoman’s cash waqfs had become the first choice of wealthy individuals with high liquidity interested in endowments (mandeville, 1979) and were so pervasive that concerns about the supplanting of traditional bank functions by the waqfs and the erosion of individual wealth became pronounced. this was because over half of the endowments in the period were cash constituted (cizakca, 1995). as far as its socio-economic impact was concerned, baskan (2002) reports that the impact of the cash waqfs was mainly felt in sectors such as; social services including social amenities and infrastructural facilities, judiciary, education, agriculture and religious affairs whilst the unhabitat (2005) submits that the cash waqf was instrumental to requisite credit and financial service provision. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 146-155 150 despite its popularity and apparent usefulness in the ottoman period, the cash waqf did not gain prominence in other contemporary muslim territories as it is believed to harbour or disguise interest transactions operationally, and remained debated. while some jurists opine that its use is a matter of derived demand; a potent mechanism for wealth protection and enhancing flexibility in philanthropic investments channels, hence very pragmatic and economically feasible. (cizakça 2000, 2004, mandeville 1979), some argued that the cash waqfs were indeed legal and the returns accruing to the waqfs were indeed profits and not interest thereby upholding the verdict of the ottoman’s. eventually, the popularity of the cash waqf was short lived and its use waned owing to hostile state take-overs which encouraged banking. (cizakca, 2011) however, there has been a resurgence of the cash waqf (sait and lim, 2006) especially with the advent of the incorporated cash waqf otherwise called stock waqf in recent times. 3.3. islamic accounting defined shahul (2009) defines islamic accounting as “the ‘the accounting process’ which provides appropriate information (not necessarily limited to financial data) to stake holders of an entity which will enable them to ensure that the entity is continuously operating within the bounds of the islamic shari’a and delivering on its socioeconomic objectives”. he is of the opinion that it is indeed an evaluative tool for muslims who are conscious of their accountability duty to the creator. while they are both concerned with information provision, islamic account is believed to be different from conventional accounting in four major ramifications; the rationale behind information provision, information of interest, mannerism in obtained information measurement, valuation recording, communication and the target users (shahul, 2009). 3.4. medeival islamic accounting for cash waqf unexpectedly, sophisticated book keeping was a fundamental feature in medieval times especially in cities where waqf was instituted. mannan (1992) reports that as far back as the 1400’s and 1500’s useful and relevant records of waqf assets were kept in municipal jurisdictions and that great care was taken by the endowers, courts cum relevant authorities to protect and preserve such information. he further asserted that many of these information are still available for public scrutiny in isfahan, istanbul, damascus, cairo, jerusalem, fez, amongst other cities. also providing relevant information were the waqf census registers. cizakca (2004) reveals that the census register of the 1500’s and 1700’s contained standardized entries of data on quite a number of endowments and that the structure, contents and manner of recording remain largely unchanged for over two and a half centuries. waqf accounting registries as well as registries of the conditional awqaf were also in existence. they provided ample information regarding the quantum of money a waqf possess, duration of capital building or accumulation, manner of accumulation, additions to capital and investments in percentages, debtors and owing(s) to the waqf as well as the nature of loans and purpose of such loans. specifically, the record entries spelt out detailed and rich information, such as amount of loan, the name of the debtor, nature of loan extension whether with deed, acknowledgement or guaranty, commentaries on waqf income and expenditures, debt or loan dates and maturity, delivery dates, explanation showing when the debts are paid back, debt/loan and other investment recouping proceedings including forceful takeovers and sale of debtors assets. this information were usually matched with each accounting entry. kurt (1998) also reports that there were recordings of estates of the deceased as well as manner of estate distribution among heirs 151 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 146-155 including court decisions on matters concerning them most of which were domiciled in the sharia courts. fee registries were also maintained by the courts which provided information on charges paid by claimants to the court. this helped the waqfs to account for court expenditures. a.) the name of the waqf and the purpose for which it was established b.) the name of the neighbourhood cum district, in which the endowment was registered.c.)the name of the trustee. d.) the time period covered by the census. e.) original capital of the waqf. f.) later additions to the capital of the waqf either by individuals or by other waqfs. g.)the balance of the new capital thus formed. h.)the return obtained from the investment of the endowed capital at the end of the year. i.) the purpose for which the annual return was designated j.)the names of the borrowers.k.)the amount of capital they borrowed. l.) the neighbourhood where the borrowers lived. m.)the religious denomination of the borrowers and n.)gender. register record of a typical ottoman cash waqf. source: ottoman archives. bearing in mind the workings of the cash waqf, accounting for ottoman cash waqf entailed a single-entry method in the accounting convention. this is a relatively easy and simple accounting method. daily income and expenditure were recorded with explanations. the corpus (cash) of the cash waqf was denominated in qurush and para. the yearly accounting entry was simply to subtract all expenditures from the income generated from the corpus and the remainder (if any) added to the corpus, of course, after the wish of the owner has been carried out. summarily, this is shown below; annual fiscal position of the cash waqf = endowed capital + (incomes expenditures) "the account of the revenue and expenditure of the muslim endowments for the purpose of (assisting) the avariz and nuzul taxes for the (residents of the) orhangazi district of the city of bursa during the trusteeship of esseyidhalil aga, the trustee of the said endowment from the year 1200 in hegira (1785) until the end of zilhicce of the same year”. this particular cash waqf was endowed with an initial capital of 2377.5 grus. to this, the "profit" of the previous year was added which increased the capital to 2544 grus. later, we have three other awqaf further contributing to this 2544 grus. the first contribution, 50 grus, was provided by the waqf of the aysehatun for the purpose of reciting the mevlid. the second one, 85 grus, came from the waqf of hakim hatun, for the same purpose. finally, the third contribution, 50 grus, also came from the waqf of hakim hatun this time, for the purpose of buying candles for the orhangaziwaqf. the total capital of the endowment thus, increased from the original 2377.5 grus to 2729 grus, a total addition of 351.5 grus. this enhanced capital of 2729 grus was then distributed as credit to 20 individuals. these investments generated a return of 257.5 grus, murabaha fi sene-i kamile, which represented 9.4 per cent of the invested capital. out of this return of 257.5 grus, a total of 86.5 grus were spent to assist the payment of avariz and nuzul taxes, to recite the mevlid, to buy candles, to pay the trustee and the bookkeeper, and for miscellaneous expenses. the remaining 171 grus was called the ziyadeezmasraf and was added the following year to the capital of the endowment.” a typical ottoman cash waqf accounting entry source: cizakca (2004). international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 146-155 152 cash waqf accounting records and related information e.g. waqf deeds were normally in one document but in some cases separate records were kept. also book of payables were also kept. the payables book provided invaluable information. information such as; the list of assets of the waqf, incomes and expenditures; the present waqf income or earnings, magnitude of loans made by the waqf, amount of additions to capital and investments, nature of charges made by the waqf on its properties , names of the guarantors, can be seen in the book of accounts. a sort of audit in the form of inspections was regularly carried out to determine the true financial positions and modus operandi of the waqf. the cash waqf censuses proved particularly useful for this purposes as the regular inspections and comparison of both past and current accounting records were documented in them. a typical cash waqf census provided information such as; the endower of the waqf , the date of registration and waqf inception, type and amount of properties, annual income obtained from these properties, annual expenditures by day, month and year, income-expenditure totals and where available, the difference between them. these records cover definite year periods. a.)names and addresses of people who borrow money from the waqf.b.)amount of money borrowed, payback time, lending period. c.) the specifications of properties hypothecated. d.)the specifications of real property hypothecated. e.) sale of properties or goods, after collecting the receivables of foundations paying the money left to the owner in the case of default on the credit. f.)determination of information about the guarantor, if there is a guarantor for the debt, and lending after “kefilvezaminiz” (guarantor, surety) promise is taken. g.)in the case that the debt is not paid back, records showing that receivables of the waqf have been taken from guarantors if available, and if the guarantor had died before the foundation collected the debt, receivables have been collected from the estate of the guarantor. information provided in a typical book of payables source: ottoman archives. specifically, regarding the recognition of income and expenditure, items such as philanthropic bequests, taxes taken from agricultural products, revenues of businesses operated by waqf, rental incomes majorly from land, bath revenues, revenue from mills and factories constitute income streams for the cash waqf institution. depending on the endowers instructional mandate, expenditures of the waqf cut across service payments, catering for the poor, salaries and wages of workers and managers which were disbursed monthly, quarterly, bi-annually or annually, building maintenance including repairs, lighting etc. subject to funds availability and priorities of the waqf, religious related payments, festivities related payments, educational development expenses such as payments to scientists, health related spending including medicine supplies to nursing homes and alms houses supports. such expenditures were recorded as expenditures to waqf account (kurt, 1996). 3.5. modern islamic accounting for cash waqf with specific reference to the cash waqf whose objective cum endowers wish is to empower small and medium enterprise (sme), the profit and loss (pls) paradigm becomes pertinent and instrumental in allocating resources between surplus and deficit units. essentially, the cash waqf institution acts as surplus unit with capital while the sme acts as the deficit unit, a fund seeking entity with business idea or acumen but with no capital. both the 153 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 146-155 sme’s and the waqf institution benefit as they get requisite funds for business ventures and returns on investment respectively, which helps business continuity as well as corpus preservation and endowment purpose permanence so long as profits are made. the quantum of partnership investment relationship between the sme’s and the cash waqf institution however depend on cash available at the waqfs disposal. to this end, a typical contemporary cash waqf focusing on sme’s would have corpus, income streams and expenditure items as follows; single or pooled cash endowment from endowers which could be individuals, institutions at the inception or during the perpetual life of the waqf institution, usufruct rights granted by individuals as well as corporate entities on its assets to the cash waqf institution which generates income for the institution, investment deposits in returns or profit remitting giving institutions such as islamic banks, dividend and capital gains arising from securities investment in e.g. capital market, profit (loss) from “safe” business partnership, administrative as well as management expenses, endowers wish implementation cum beneficiaries settlement and capital augmentation activities. the modern accounting for cash waqf is identical to accounting for nonexpendable fund, a form of fiduciary fund. fiduciary funds constitute funds in the coffers of public sector organizations through a formal trust relationship agreement in which the fund holder acts in trust or agency capacity on behalf of an endower or donor. under the arrangement, the funds or capital are provided by the donor to the public institution who invests it or expends its proceeds in accordance to trust agreements (engstrom& hay, 1996). nonexpendable trust funds are essentially trust funds governed via statutory laws and individual trust agreement .under which principal(s) must be maintained. their accounting therefore requires a capital maintenance approach where revenue and expenses will be treated on an accrual basis. income received, on which the public institution concerned has no spending rights is recorded in the nonexpendable trust fund. similarly, real trading investment activities, rental, business as well as other commercial activities that generate incomes and/or represent additions to capital are also recognized in such fund accounts. (engstrom& hay, 1996) taking a cue from the nonexpendable trust fund whilst considering the mandate of the cash waqf focusing on sme’s, typical accounting entries of a cash waqf fund would be; a.) cash received from donator recorded as “revenues-grant”. b.) when the cash capital of waqf fund used in investment activities is recorded as investment. c.) income streams from cash waqf investment activities are entered as “revenues-investment income”, which is used for paying administrative expenses, beneficiaries and add up the initial funds. operating statement of the fund would consist of revenues from corpus as well as revenue from investment while assets of waqf fund will include items such as cash, investments and investment income receivable. . 4. conclusion by and large, the paper has demonstrated the use as well as application of islamic accounting in medieval times and modern parlances as far as cash waqfs are concerned, attesting to its relevance for such voluntary redistribution and wealth management institution. in fact, the waqf, an age-long institution would not have been able to see the light of the day without thorough accounting. the current resurgence as well as continued existence of the waqf institution is indeed a testimony that islamic accounting has lived to expectation in the information dissemination business within the purview of sharia and is a sine qua non if the institution must continue to exist. the author is of the opinion that there is no scientific distinction in objective, between the accounting for waqf in the ottoman’s and in recent times. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 146-155 154 thus, the clamour for islamic accounting in recent times relative to islamic institutions including the cash waqf is to a great extent unnecessary and it is arguably a case of old wine in new bottles. references ahmad, m.

technological developments, making it easier to pay zakat through digital payments. one of the groups of people who use digital payments is the millennial generation. the millennial generation is also known as the generation that likes things that are easy and related to technology. this study aims to analyze how the millennial generation intends to pay for zakat through digital payments. the method used in this research is logistic regression. the results showed that the variable trust, perception variable, and convenience variable had a significant influence on the intention of the millennial generation to pay zakat through digital payments, while knowledge and motivation had an insignificant effect. this research result implies that opz must make a convenient application for the millennial generation in making zakat payments digitally.. international journal of islamic business and economics available at http://e-journal.iainpekalongan.ac.id/index.php/ijibec issn

background for the industrial revolution 4.0. the european parliamentary research service states that the industrial revolution occurred four times. the first industrial revolution took place in england in 1784. at the end of the 19th century, the second revolution took place. next, the third revolution took place in 1970 (davies, 2015). the fourth revolution was announced a priori because the actual event had not yet occurred and was still in the form of ideas. changes that are happening today have made business people make innovations so that their products and services can be integrated with technology. digitalization in all sectors, including the industrial sector, must be carried out to survive in the global era. along with technological advances and the 4.0 industrial revolution, in indonesia, the use of the internet is growing and developing. according to the indonesian internet service usage association (apji), the number of internet users in indonesia increases every year. based on the results of the apji survey and the indonesian polling, the number of internet users in indonesia in 2018 increased by 27.91 million (10.12%) to 171.18 million people. this data means that the penetration of internet users in the country has increased to 64.8% of the total population (apji, 2019). according to plunkett (2008), the internet is the preferred means of support in the global economic trading system because of its strategic role in expanding markets worldwide. as many as 71 percent of internet users have bought a product online or through e-commerce and payment through digital payments. digital payments in indonesia continue to increase from year to year. the large population and increasing e-commerce in indonesia are accelerating digital payment transactions in the country. every year in indonesia, there is an increase in digital transactions. the volume of digital transactions in 2010 only reached 41,060,149 million transactions, with a total nominal transaction of idr 981,296,980,076 billion. but in 2020, the volume of digital transactions will increase to 4,625,703,561 billion, with a total nominal transaction of 204,909,170,021,918 trillion. based on population projections for 2015-2045, according to the inter-census population survey (supas) results in 2015, indonesia's population will reach 269.6 million by 2020. this figure consists of 135.34 million men and 134.27 women. as many as 66.07 million people are in the non-productive age category (0-4 years), then 185.34 million people are in the productive age group (15-64 years), and 18.2 million people are in the unproductive age group ( 65+ years). currently, indonesia is entering the era of the demographic bonus, where the number of productive age population is more than the unproductive age. due to the increasing number of internet users and digital payments in indonesia every year. so, digitizing payments is the main focus in order to increase the potential for zakat in indonesia. in 2019, the state of indonesia, with the largest muslim population globally, has the potential for zakat reaching rp. 233.8 trillion (puskas baznas, 2020). the development of zakat in indonesia changes dynamically from time to time, both in terms of regulations, institutions, collection, and distribution processes. this change is, of course, based on the needs and demands of zakat stakeholders. towards 2020, the condition of zakat in indonesia is racing towards better management. we can observe this from the various innovations that are being and have been carried out by the opz (zakat management organization), including efforts to integrate zakat management with technology through digital-based service processes, harmonization of national zakat integrated data systems, and the formulation of research-based strategic policies in the 40 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 38 – 47 management of zakat. (puskas baznas, 2019). the zakat institution has made collection efforts by digitizing it through two platforms: internal and external (puskas baznas, 2018). for the internal platform, opz has digitized collection services using several facilities, including the opz website. apart from going through the website, opz has also developed an android-based application to collect zakat funds from muzakki. nilawati & rijal (2020) state that online zakat payments are quite effective and efficient in increasing zakat income. for external platforms, opz collaborates with external platform providers. first, the ride-hailing platform from indonesia, namely gojek. through his company's unit called gogive. baznas, dompet dhuafa and rumah zakat have collaborated with the ride-hailing platform to collect zakat funds. second, opz utilizing crowdfunding. one of the crowdfunding platforms used is kitabisa. third, baznas, as the coordinating institution for opz, formed zakathub. transactions using e-wallets or digital wallets have become a trend in society to carry out various transactions. thus, opz has collaborated with e-wallet platforms to provide non-cash zakat payment facilities, such as gopay, linkaja, and ovo, in receiving zakat payments. with more than 260 million, with more than 85 percent of the population being muslim, indonesia certainly has a significant number of potential millennial muzakki. the millennial generation, as described in the thematic gender statistics report (2018) by the ministry of women's empowerment and child protection (kemenpppa), are those born in the early 1980s to 1999 (baznas outlook, 2020). the baby boom generation plus veterans are only 11.27 percent of the total population, then generation x is 25.74 percent, and generation z is 29.23 percent, while the millennial generation is more than all generations 33.75 percent of the total. indonesian residents. the use of financial technology in zakat collection has been proven to absorb the potential of zakat from millennials. baznas in indonesia's 2019 zakat outlook states that the trend of digital zakat payments has been implemented since 2016. this implementation increased zakat collection by 19.66 percent in 2017 compared to absorption in 2016. in line with the 2019 indonesian zakat outlook, santoso (2019 ) said that digital or digitalization in zis could increase public trust, which impacts increasing zis collection. the digitization of zakat can make it easier to educate the indonesian people about zakat, infaq, and sadaqah, mostly muslims. rohim (2019), by transforming into the use of channels in digital fundraising, zakat management and collection programs can be carried out better and educate the public about the obligation to give zakat. however, in 2018 opz realized online zakat to increase zakat income from the millennial generation, it still cannot be maximized. this fact is evidenced in saragih's (2018) research showing that the millennial generation (generation y) trusts zakat more directly to mustahik rather than giving it to opz. saragih (2018) mentions why muzakki who directly choose zakat are because they feel more affectionate than giving it to opz. furthermore, they do not need to pay additional fees, they already know the actual condition of the mustahik, and finally, there are still many mustahics that baz / laz has not reached. the security factor will be one of the determining factors for muzakki in paying zakat using a digital platform (khotimah & larasati, 2019). the potential for zakat from the millennial group in 2020 can be reflected by the potential for zakat income among those aged 25-40 years. assuming more than 80 percent of indonesia's population is muslim, and the number of millennials increasing in 2020, there will be a significant potential for zakat. this data is a challenge for opz to realize. in addition international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 38-47 41 to the potential for income zakat, the millennial generation also has excellent potential to provide other islamic funds such as infaq, waqf, and alms. at least this potential can be measured from indonesia's achievement as the number one country in terms of donating according to the world giving index (2019). of course, this will be a challenge for opz to capture and realize the opportunities of the millennial generation in donating. the level of zakat literacy will affect the intention of muzakki to pay zakat through digital payments (kasri & yuniar, 2021). there are still not many studies related to the intention of the millennial generation to pay zakat through digital payments, so this will be the main contributors to this research. therefore, this study aims to analyze how the millennial generation intends to pay zakat through digital payments. in addition, this study also aims to analyze the level of use of digital payments in zakat payments for the millennial generation. 2. method this study used a non-probability sampling technique with a purposive sampling method and obtained a sample of 100 respondents. all respondents are those who have made zakat payments through digital payments or cash and will make zakat payments through digital payments or in cash with the age range of respondents from 20-40 years. the questionnaire was distributed to 100 millennial generation in the jakarta area. the analysis technique used by the author is a quantitative research method, using a logistic regression analysis model. this study uses logistic regression because the dependent variable is qualitative in the form of two decision choices. this is the main reason for choosing the logistic regression technique in this study. the feasibility of the regression model was assessed using the hosmer and lemeshow's goodness of fit test. this model is to test the null hypothesis that the empirical data fits or fits the model. then, perform the overall model fit test to find out whether all the independent variables in the logistic regression simultaneously affect the dependent variable and finally do the determination coefficient test to see how much influence the independent variables and the dependent variable partially. the independent variables used in this study were knowledge, belief, perception, motivation and convenience. the dependent variable in this study is intention. the mathematical equation of logistic regression is as follows: 3. result and discussion respondents taken in this study are the millennial generation of dki jakarta who are muslims and will or have already paid zakat through digital or cash payments. the samples taken were 100 respondents. based on table 1, it is explained that as many as 68% of respondents chose to pay zakat in cash and as many as 32 percent of respondents chose to pay zakat through digital payments. this shows that most respondents still use zis cash payments. maulidina & solekah (2020) state that there are still many muzakki who distribute zakat directly compared to through opz. 42 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 38 – 47 table 1. number of respondents based on payment methods table 1 shows that as many as 28 percent of respondents use ovo to pay zakat, 25 percent of respondents choose bank transfer, as many as 21 percent of respondents pay zis through kita bisa, as many as 8 percent of respondents choose to pay zis through go-give, as many as 6 percent of respondents choosing through link aja, as many as 5 percent of respondents pay zis through tokopedia, 3 percent of respondents use dana to pay zis, as many as 3 percent of respondents pay zis via the opz’s web and as much as 1 percent of respondents pay zis through youtap. figure 1. number of respodent based on digital payment method figure 2 shows the chi-square value of 13.723 with a significance of 0.056. based on these results, because the significance value is greater than 0.05, it can be concluded that the model is able to predict the observation value or it can be said that the model is acceptable because it matches the observation data. table 2. hosmer and lemeshow test chi-square df sig 13.723 7 0.056 table 2 is a display of the comparison of the difference in the value of -2 log likelihood which consists of constants only and -2 log likelihood which consists of constants and independent variables. the difference follows the chi square distribution. the chi square value is 24.731 with df 5. based on table 3, it is obtained a significance value of 0.000 because this value is less than 5%, it can be concluded that knowledge, trust, perception, motivation and ease simultaneously influence intention. table 3. comparison of value from -2ll chi-square df sig. step 1 step 24.731 5 .000 block 24.731 5 .000 model 24.731 5 .000 table 3 shows that the value of

results of the research in table 5 show that the knowledge variable has no effect on the intention of the millennial generation to pay zakat through digital payments. these results contradict the results of research conducted by huda & ghofur (2012), saad et al. (2016), and martono et al. (2019). table 5. logistic regression result variable coefficient se sig. constant. -6,218 2,702 0,021*** knowledge -0,230 -0,611 0,706 trust 1,170 0,592 0,048** perception 1,526 0,629 0,015** motivation 0,633 0,682 0,353 convenience 1,434 0,711 0,044** note: significance level *(10%), **(5%), ***(1%) the results of the logistic regression analysis in table 5 also show that the trust variable has a significant effect on the intention of the millennial generation to pay zakat through digital payments. if paying zakat through digital payments is trustworthy, the tendency of the millennial generation to pay zakat through digital payments can increase. in this study, the results of the trust variable support the results of research conducted by martono et al. (2019), usman et al. (2020), and syafira et al (2020) that the trust variable has an influence on the interest in paying zakat. muzakki's trust is influenced by the reputation of the zakat management organization (mukhibad et al., 2019). accountability of zakat organizations have a positive influence on the muzakki paying behavior (nurkholis & jayanto, 2020). table 5 also shows that the perception variable has a significant effect on the intention of the millennial generation to pay zakat through digital payments. if the perception of paying zakat through digital payments is good, then the tendency of the millennial generation to pay zakat through digital payments can increase. kurniaputri et al (2020) also found similar results where intentional behavior will determine people's decisions to pay zakat through digital platforms. perceived subjective norms and behavioral control will influence the intention to give infaq and shadaqah (kharisma & putri, 2020). andam & osman (2019) finds that attitude, descriptive norm, and moral norm have a positive relationship with the zakat intention. one of the positive perceptions of zakat management organizations is due to promotions carried out using public figures. antonio et al (2020) state that one of the things that increases public interest in paying zakat is the use of public figures by opzs. perceptions arise from the information obtained by muzakki, that digital zakat payments will make the obstacles or barriers to information smaller (hanadi, 2020). muhammad & saad (2016) also found that attitude and moral reasoning had a positive impact on zakat intention among businessmen in kano nigeria. the results of the logistic regression analysis of the motivational variables in table 5 show that there is no influence on the intention of the millennial generation to pay zakat 44 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 38 – 47 through digital payments. in this study, the results of the motivation variable contradict the results of research conducted by majid (2017), kamaruddin et al (2015) and rizkia et al (2014). this can occur due to the lack of socialization carried out by opz on zis payments based on digital payments. this study also shows that the convenience variable has a significant effect on the intention of the millennial generation to pay zakat through digital payments (see table 5). if paying zakat through easy digital payments, the tendency of the millennial generation to pay zakat through digital payments will also increase (kasri & yuniar, 2021). in this study, the results of the convenience variable are similar to the findings of ichwan (2020), sukoraharjo (2018), and karmanto & baskoro (2020) that the convenience variable affects the interest in paying zakat. one of the challenges faced with digital zakat payments is that internet access in indonesia is still uneven (utami et al, 2020). rachmat et al (2020) stated that there are several other factors that determine the behavior of gen y muslims in the use of digital zakat payments. these factors are performance expectations, business expectations, social influences, facilitation conditions, hedonic motivation, price values, habits, and safety. mobilization of zakat payments through opz can be done by increasing awareness and willingness to pay zakat and the use of technology (doktoralina et al, 2018; sedjati et al, 2018). one of the awareness of paying zakat by the community is built through video public service advertisements (bawono & erlangga, 2019). in addition, the digital zakat campaign through the institution's official social media needs to be increased (hudaefi & beik, 2021). tantriana & rahmawati (2018) recommends zakat management organizations to further promote zakat payments digitally to increase the literacy about zakat. because literacy will have implications for the higher intention of muzakki paying behavior (yusfiarto et al., 2020). 4. conclusion this research shows that the millennial generation pays more zakat in cash or directly by 68 percent, while 32 percent pays through digital payments. this is due to the lack of knowledge and motivation possessed by the millennial generation regarding zakat payments through digital payments. there are many choices of services to pay for zis through digital payments. this research concludes that the millennial generation prefers to use ovo services to pay zakat through digital payments. the empirical results obtained show that the trend of zis payments in the future will rely on digital payments. therefore, each opz must be able to adapt to this trend, including being more active in enhancing the features contained in this digital payment service. millennials will feel more comfortable using digital payments in every economic activity, including zakat payments.. references andam, a. c., & osman, a. z.

hillhilyatunnafisah@gmail.com, supri1101.sy@gmail.com abstract net asset value (nav) is a measure of investment performance for sharia mutual funds derived from the entire value of the mutual fund portfolio fewer liabilities. this research aims to analyze the effect of the rupiah exchange rate, inflation, jakarta islamic index (jii) and bank indonesia sharia certificate (sbis) on net asset value (nav) of sharia mutual funds. the object in this research consisted of 5 companies registered with the financial services authority (ojk) from 2012-2019. panel data regression analysis was used to test the hypothesis in this study. a random effect is used to determine the differences in the effect. the result of this study concluded that rupiah exchange rate, inflation and jii and sbis effect on nav of sharia mutual funds simultaneously. partially, an unstable rupiah exchange rate is considered to have an impact on the company's production factors and affect the validity of the stock price; this causes investments no longer be attractive to investors, thereby reducing the value of investments that have an impact on the declining mutual fund nav. inflation decreases the real income of people with fixed income will also reduce the value of wealth in the form of money so that people will prefer to invest their money in the form of real assets that will result in reduced investment in the financial and capital markets and lower the nav value of islamic mutual funds. jii describes the performance of stocks which are one of the portfolios of sharia mutual funds. if the jii index value rises, then the increase in the portfolio of sharia mutual funds that share type will also rise which will have an impact on the increase in the nett asset value of sharia mutual funds. sbis does not affect the sharia mutual funds nav. the relationship between sbis and the sharia mutual fund nav as well as the relationship between interest rates and stock prices is negative or in the opposite direction. if interest rates rise at an adequate level, investors will try to move their investments from stocks to deposits. international journal of islamic business and economics

obtain several benefits in the future. investments that are following islamic teachings are, of course, investments made in the real sector and must be following islamic sharia principles. one place for investors to invest and finance following sharia principles is in the islamic capital market. islamic capital market (islamic stock exchange) is an activity related to the trading of sharia securities of public companies related to the issuance of securities, as well as professional institutions related to them, where all products and operational mechanisms are running not in conflict with muamalat islamiyah law (hamid, 2009). over the past 20 years, the capital market in indonesia has shown rapid development. this capital market has seen from the increase in demand for the main instruments of capital market activities such as stocks, bonds, foreign exchange (fardiansyah, 2002). one investment instrument in the islamic capital market that is experiencing rapid development is islamic mutual funds. sharia mutual funds are a container used to collect funds from the public (financiers), and then invest in securities portfolios by investment managers and following the provisions of regulations and laws that have been determined principally by allah swt. sharia mutual funds are an attractive investment for people who want to invest the following sharia because these investments tend not to require significant capital and do not take up investor time (rahman, 2015). one measure of islamic mutual fund investment performance is net asset value (nav). the nav is derived from the full value of the mutual fund portfolio and reduced by liabilities. nav is one of the benchmarks in monitoring the results of sharia mutual fund portfolios. the development of sharia mutual funds can have seen in the following table 1: table 1 development of sharia mutual funds in indonesia years number of shariah mutual funds total sharia mutual funds nav (rp. billion) 2012 58 8.050,07 2013 65 9.432,19 2014 74 11.158,00 2015 93 11,019,43 2016 136 14.914,63 2017 182 28.311,77 2018 224 34.491,17 2019 262 48.471,93 source: otoritas jasa keuangan judging from its performance so far, sharia mutual funds can be categorized as one of the potential sharia-based investment instruments and have prospects that will continue to grow. however, the excellent performance of sharia mutual funds so far has not always promised this investment to be in a safe position, a slight change in the economy can directly affect the performance of sharia mutual funds. according to hamid (2009), changes in economic, political conditions, including social and security conditions at home and abroad can affect company performance, including companies that have gone public / listed on the stock exchange. these macroeconomic variables will affect the effects included in the mutual fund portfolio. factors that suspected international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 11-20 13 of influencing the performance of islamic mutual funds include the rupiah exchange rate, inflation, the jakarta islamic index (jii) and the bank indonesia syariah certificate (sbis), where the exchange rate and inflation are considered as a reflection of the economic situation of a country while jii and sbis have considered as a reflection of the state of the money market and capital market. table 2 exchange rate growth, inflation, jii, sbis and sharia mutual fund nav 2012-2019 years nab (%) kurs (%) inflasi (%) jii (%) sbis (%) 2012 8.99 9.22 4.3 6.39 4.80 2013 9.15

5.90 source: otoritas jasa keuangan, bank indonesia kraugman (2005) states that fluctuations in currency exchange rates against foreign currencies significantly affect the investment climate in the country, especially the capital market. this evidenced by the increase in the exchange rate during the study period, followed by an increase in nav in the same year (table 2). putratama (2007) states that the rate of inflation harms the nav of islamic mutual funds if the impact of inflation reduces consumption and purchasing power. however, the data presented in table 2 does not show this, there is any inconsistency between the relationship of inflation with the sharia mutual fund nav in 2014-2015 when the inflation rate falls, and the nav also decreases. noviayanty (2016) states that jii is very influential on nab performance fluctuations because jii is a sharia index which is used as a benchmark to measure the performance of an investment in shares on sharia basis. table 2 shows that jii fluctuations sometimes have positive effects such as in 2013-2016 and also harmful in 2012-2014 on nav, therefore further research is needed to find out the extent of jii's influence on nav. putratama (2007) and arisandi (2009) stated that the relationship between sbis and sharia mutual fund navs was negative. so if sbis decreases, nav increases. however, this is not in line with the results of table 2 in 2012-2013, where the value of sbis and nav both increased. this research is a development from previous studies. the variables used in this study are kurs, inflation, sbis, jii, and focus on the net asset value of mixed sharia mutual funds. this research conducted from january 2012 to july 2019. the period of 2012 chosen because it was a transitional year for sharia mutual fund supervision from bapepam-lk to the financial services authority (ojk), whereas 2019 was a year of transition in indonesian political conditions that made the economy unstable and had an impact on the investment climate. the period of the year was chosen to see how the influence of kurs, inflation, jii as indicators of the economy, and sbis as one of the sharia monetary instruments in influencing changes in nav of sharia mutual funds. sharia mutual funds sharia mutual funds according to the mui no.20 / dsn-mui / ix / 2000 mui national fatwa (dsn) are mutual funds operating according to islamic sharia principles and principles, both in 14 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 11-20 the form of a contract between the financier as the owner of assets (shahib al-mal / ran almal) with investment managers as representatives of shahib al-mal, and between investment managers as representatives of shahib al-mal and investment users. sharia mutual funds are the same as conventional mutual funds which aim to raise funds from the public which are then managed by investment managers have invested in instruments in the capital market and money market. such instruments are like stocks, bonds, foreign exchange and short-term debt instruments (commercial paper). the investment instrument has chosen in the sharia mutual fund portfolio categorized as halal. it is said as halal, if the party that issues the investment instrument does not do business that is contrary to islamic principles, does not make usury or lend money. only securities that categorized as halal can included in the portfolio of islamic mutual funds. besides, in terms of managing mutual funds and sharia also based on islamic principles, which do not allow the use of investment strategies that lead to speculation. mutual funds are an alternative investment for the community of investors, especially small investors and investors who do not have much time and expertise to calculate the risk of their investment. mutual funds designed as a means to raise funds from people who have capital, have the desire to invest but have limited time and knowledge (sutedi, 2011). there are four types of mutual funds based on their investment portfolios, namely: (1) money market funds are mutual funds that invest 100% in money market securities. this mutual fund has the lowest risk level; (2) fixed income fund (fix income fund) is a mutual fund that invests at least 80% of its assets in the form of debt securities. this mutual fund has a relatively higher risk than money market mutual funds; (3) equity fund is a mutual fund that invests at least 80% of its assets in the form of equity. this mutual fund has a higher risk than the two previous types of mutual funds; (4) mixed mutual funds (discretionary funds) are mutual funds whose investments are in equity securities and money securities. net asset value (nav) is one measure of the performance of islamic mutual fund portfolios. nav is obtained from the sum of the entire portfolio of mutual funds and reduced by liabilities. nav can formulate as follows: rupiah exchange rate foreign exchange rates are the price of the unit of currency in units of other currencies. exchange rates determined in the foreign exchange market, where different currencies are traded (samuelson, 2004). changes in exchange rates are usually called appreciation and depreciation. the depreciation of a country's currency makes the prices of its goods cheaper for foreign parties, assuming all other conditions remain (cateris paribus). conversely, if an appreciation of a country's currency causes the price of its goods to be more expensive for foreign parties assuming all conditions are fixed (kraugman, 2005). if in conventional terms foreign exchange rates are known as foreign exchange, then in islam the foreign exchange rate is called al-sharf. in the al-munjid fi al-lughah dictionary, alsharf means selling money for other money. al-sharf means the addition, exchange, avoidance, or sale and purchase transactions. thus al-sharf is the exchange of currencies, both between similar currencies and between different currency types (sholihin, 2010). there are four types of foreign exchange transactions, namely: (1) spot transactions, i.e. transactions of buying and selling foreign currencies for delivery at the time (over the counter) or settlement no later than two days. the law is permissible, because it considered a cash transaction, whereas a two-day period is considered an inevitable settlement process navt = (mvat – liabt/nsot) international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 11-20 15 and is an international transaction; (2) forward transactions, i.e. transactions of buying and selling of foreign currencies whose value determined at present and enforced for the future, between 2 x 24 hours up to one year. the law of this transaction is haram, because the price used is the agreed price (muwa'adah) and the delivery is done in the future, even though the price at the time of delivery is not necessarily the same as the agreed price, unless done in the form of a forward agreement for needs that are not can avoid (lil hajah). (3) swap transaction, which is a contract of buying or selling foreign currencies at a spot price combined with a purchase between selling the same foreign currency as the forward price. this transaction law is haram because it contains elements of maysir (speculation); (4) option transactions, i.e. contracts to obtain rights to buy or sell rights that do not have to be carried out on several foreign exchange units at a specific price and period or end date. the law of this transaction is haram because it contains elements of maysir (speculation). according to madura (2001) when a country's currency is depreciating, and other things fixed, investors are diverting their investment by buying shares; consequently, the demand for shares rises and so does the stock price. otherwise, if a country's currency experiences appreciation, the demand for shares will go down, and so will the share price. the exchange rate of the rupiah against the us dollar has a positive relationship with the return of shares traded by issuers engaged in imports in the sense that the higher the exchange rate, the higher the return generated by the stock market. when the rupiah depreciates against the us dollar because at the time of export, the profits obtained are in dollars so that the company's profits increase, this causes an increase in the company's performance so that the price of shares sold on the stock market increases, where this will eventually result in increased returns obtained by investors. likewise, the relationship between the exchange rate of the rupiah and nav, if the exchange rate rises, shares will also increase, of course, will increase the nav of islamic mutual funds because one of its portfolios is in the form of shares inflation inflation is a state of the economy characterized by rapidly rising prices that have an impact on the decline in purchasing power, often also followed by a decrease in the level of savings funds or investment due to increased public consumption and only a little for long-term savings (sholihin, 2010). inflation caused by several things such as natural inflation, namely inflation that occurs due to natural causes such as drought, floods, tsunamis. which causes the supply of goods and services to decrease when demand is constant or even rising, which results in price increases. the second is human error inflation, which is inflation caused by human error such as corruption. inflation causes a decrease in real income in people with fixed income, reduces the value of wealth in the form of money, and worsens the distribution of wealth. in general, inflation can result in reduced investment in a country, encourage an increase in interest rates, encourage speculative investment, the failure of development, economic instability, the balance of payments deficit and the decline in the level of social welfare. according to islamic economists, inflation is terrible for the economy because (i) it causes disruption to the function of money, especially to the function of savings (saving value), (ii) weakens the spirit of saving and attitudes toward saving from the community (decreasing marginal propensity to save), (iii) increasing the tendency to shop especially for non-primary and luxury items (increasing marginal propensity to consume), and (iv) directing investment in non-productive things such as hoarding wealth such as land, buildings, precious metals, foreign currencies at the expense of investment towards productive activities such as 16 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 11-20 agriculture, industry, trade, transportation and others (karim, 2014). hifdzia (2012)argues that inflation does not affect the nav of islamic mutual funds. it concluded that the sharia mutual fund nav is not dependent on inflation. jakarta islamic index (jii) according to martalena (2011), the jakarta islamic index (jii) is a sharia index consisting of 30 shares that accommodate investment conditions in islam or an index based on islamic sharia. in other words, this index includes sham-shares that meet the investment criteria in islamic law. jii is the latest index developed by the jakarta stock exchange (jsx) in collaboration with danareksa investment management to respond to information needs related to islamic investment. mursyidin (2010) argues that jii has a significant and positive influence on the nav of mutual funds sharia. jii as one of the places where investors know what types of shares permitted in sharia and do not contain prohibited elements, then jii becomes an index that can be calculated by investors in choosing shares to be selected according to sharia. the increase in jii reflects the company's improved performance so that it has the potential to earn more revenue. increased corporate income will cause an increase in return for the results of islamic mutual funds. therefore, people will invest their funds through sharia mutual funds in the hope of obtaining a higher return. in other words, the improved performance of shares in jii will spur increased funds in sharia mutual funds, especially sharia shares, which could cause the total nav of sharia mutual funds to obtained. bank indonesia syariah certificate (sbis) according to bank indonesia regulation number 10/11 / pbi / 2008, bank indonesia sharia certificates (sbis) are securities based on short-term sharia principles in rupiah issued by bank indonesia. sbis issued as one of the instruments of open market operations in the context of monetary control conducted based on sharia principles. for islamic banks, sbis can be used as an investment tool, as is bank indonesia certificate (sbi) in conventional banks. the contract used in sbis is also a contract, which is an agreement or commitment (iltizam) to provide certain rewards (reward / iwadh / ju'l) for achieving the results (natijah) specified in a job. bank indonesia determines and provides rewards for issued sbis. sbis issued through an auction system where the parties entitled to participate in the auction are sharia commercial banks (bus), sharia business units (uus) and brokers acting for and on behalf of bus and uus. however, bus and uus can only participate in the sbis auction if they meet the financing to deposit ratio requirements set by bank indonesia. sholihah (2008)states that sbis does not affect the sharia mutual funds nav. it concluded that the nav of reksadana syariah does not depend on sbis. in recent years, sbis has shown a decline. shows that islamic banks prefer to expand their financing because it gives better results compared to the sbis bonus/reward level obtained. this condition reflects the expansion of islamic bank financing, which is getting better. generally shows that the development of the real sector is more a consideration of investment in islamic banks than in money market conditions. 2. research method this research included in quantitative research. the scope of this study is to look at the effect of exchange rates, inflation, jii, and sbis on the net asset value (nav) of islamic mutual funds during the period january 2012 to july 2019. the data taken is monthly data. while the type international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 11-20 17 of data that the authors use in this study is time series data and cross-section data. the sampling technique in this research is to use judgment sampling. this study uses panel data regression analysis using eviews version 9 and microsoft excel 2013 computer programs. sharia mutual funds used in this study are aaa amanah syariah (pt. aaa asset management), mandiri investa syariah berimbang (pt mandiri manajemen investment), cipta syariah balance (pt ciptadana asset management), sam syariah berimbang (pt samuel aset manajemen), and trim syariah berimbang (pt trimegah asset management). 3. results

(t-test) macro variables that significantly influence the performance of islamic mutual funds are the exchange rate (0.0000), inflation (0.0011) and jii (0.0000). while the sbis variable (0.0841) did not significantly influence the performance of islamic mutual funds. simultaneously (f test) the independent variable (0.000000) has a significant effect on the nav of sharia mutual funds so that the regression model can be used to predict the dependent variable. the exchange rate is a macroeconomic variable that also influences the stock price validity because an unstable exchange rate is considered to have an impact on the company's production factors. exchange rates that continue to fluctuate certainly have an impact on the economy, both positive and negative. one of the negative impacts is that if the exchange rate decreases, production costs will increase and the company's debt will increase, so that the revenue share will decrease, causing investment to no longer be attractive to investors, thereby reducing the value of investments that have an impact on declining mutual fund nav. while the positive impact of the decline in the exchange rate gave its blessings for several sectors including ponds, companies engaged in the tourism industry, marine and fisheries, palm oil farming, and several other sectors, that is because their production costs in rupiah tend not to impact the increase in the dollar, while their demand calculated in dollars (herlina, ratna, & nandari, 2017). causes an increase in company performance so that the price of shares sold on the stock market increases, where this will eventually result in 18 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 11-20 increased returns obtained by investors. if the domestic currency increased against foreign currencies, the purchasing power of the people would increase so that the ability of the people to invest will increase. besides, according to lm theory in macroeconomics, if the money supply rises, interest rates will go down, causing savings to fall and investment to rise. economically, if the exchange rate appreciates, the price of our country's currency is higher for foreign parties, and vice versa if there is depreciation. if our currency depreciates the money supply will increase, if it appreciates, the money supply will decrease. what causes if the exchange rate increases (in nominal terms), the sharia mutual fund nav as one of the investment instruments will also increase. rupiah exchange rate will have a positive impact on the development of islamic capital markets such as islamic mutual funds, which is reflected by an increase in sharia mutual funds nav (madura, 2001). inflation has adverse effects such as will reduce the real income of people who have a steady income, inflation will also reduce the value of wealth in the form of money so that people will prefer to invest their money in the form of real assets that will result in reduced investment in financial markets and capital markets which means it will reduce the value of sharia mutual funds nav as an investment instrument in the islamic capital market in indonesia. moreover, vice versa when the inflation rate falls, people will start flocking to increase investment in the financial sector, one of them in the islamic capital market, this will later increase the value of the nav sharia mutual funds (lestari, 2019). according to mursyidin (2010), jii has a positive effect on the nav of islamic mutual funds. jii describes the performance of stocks which are one of the portfolios of sharia mutual funds. if the jii index value rises, then the increase in the portfolio of sharia mutual funds that share type will also rise which will have an impact on the increase in the net asset value of sharia mutual funds. according to sholihah (2008), sbis does not affect the sharia mutual funds nav. the relationship between sbis and the sharia mutual fund nav as well as the relationship between interest rates and share prices is negative or in the opposite direction. if interest rates rise at an adequate level, investors will try to move their investments from stocks to deposits. in other words, there will be a stock sell-off which will result in a decline in share prices and vice versa. likewise, what happens to sbis and nav, if sbis offers an adequate level of profit-sharing, investors will move their investment from sharia mutual funds to sharia deposits so that the nav from sharia mutual funds will decrease, and vice versa. in recent years, sbis has shown fluctuations. shows that islamic banks prefer to expand their financing because they provide better results than the sbis bonus/reward level obtained. generally shows that the development of the real sector is still a consideration for investment in islamic banks compared to money market conditions. panel data regression equation nabit = 0.961278 + 0.295555 kurst –

panel data regression results show that rupiah exchange rate, inflation and jii and sbis effect on nav of sharia mutual funds simultaneously. partially, an unstable rupiah exchange rate is considered to have an impact on the company's production factors and affect the validity of the stock price; this causes investments no longer be attractive to investors, thereby reducing the value of investments that have an impact on the declining mutual fund nav. inflation decreases the real income of people with fixed income will also reduce the value of wealth in the form of money so that people will prefer to invest their money in the form of real assets that will result in reduced investment in the financial and capital markets and lower the nav value of islamic mutual funds. jii describes the performance of stocks which are one of the portfolios of sharia mutual funds. if the jii index value rises, then the increase in the portfolio of sharia mutual funds that share type will also rise which will have an impact on the increase in the net asset value of sharia mutual funds. sbis does not affect the sharia mutual funds nav. the relationship between sbis and the sharia mutual fund nav as well as the relationship between interest rates and stock prices is negative or in the opposite direction. if interest rates rise at an adequate level, investors will try to move their investments from stocks to deposits. 20 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 11-20 references arisandi, t. d.

malaysia, bandar baru nilai, 71800, malaysia 3 faculty of economics, universitas esa unggul, jakarta 11510, indonesia *corresponding email: dodik.siswantoro@ui.ac.id abstract the objective of the research is to compare the incentive zakat agency mechanism between indonesia and malaysia. in indonesia, private institutions are permitted to collect zakat and have the agency to support zakat collection, while in malaysia only state institution collects zakat. to enhance zakat fund collectability, they need agencies located in specific institutions. however, both countries share a similar mechanism of incentive zakat agency allocation. the method of the research is based on a qualitative study. some respondents are questioned and interviewed on a specific topic of incentive zakat agency mechanism. the result shows that the agency mechanism in private zakat institutions in indonesia is more flexible than malaysia. the agency is authorized to get zakat allocation to be disbursed to surrounding zakat recipients and develop the allocation report. on the other hand, a zakat rebate can be a supporting factor for muslims to pay zakat more in malaysia than in indonesia. this is the first study which compare the incentive zakat agency mechanism between indonesia and malaysia. most of previous research does not investigate and compare the zakat incentive. international journal of

of zakat fundraising is still an interesting topic as not all muslims are aware of the obligation of zakat payment. many factors may cause why muslims do not pay zakat. however, zakat is one of the five pillars of islam which must be conducted by a muslim or otherwise they are not classified as muslim (nurhayati & siswantoro, 2015a). the mechanism of zakat collection must be improved to get a much zakat fund. this must be supported by a good system like tax collection. previously, muslims only paid zakat as obligatory worship and charity and endowment as advisable worship. at that time, zakat can be taken forcefully in the age of umar bin khattab. then, tax and customs are considered as a supplementary income source for the state (siswantoro, 2012). different countries have applied different types of agencies for zakat collection. the agency is operated (a) under a ministry in such countries as saudi arabia and kuwait; (b) under the government in such countries as malaysia and brunei; and (c) in a mixed type in such countries as indonesia and singapore. however, malaysia and indonesia share similarities in zakat fundraising which involve communities to be a partner for collection and distribution of zakat fund. incentives are given in the form of zakat fund allocation distribution for a community agency. in malaysia zakat payers can deduct their tax payment, while in indonesia zakat can only deduct the taxable income. this payment is valid even though zakat payers give it to community zakat agencies (munandar et al. , 2019). zakat collection in malaysia in 2016 was 2.5 billion rm (8.7 trillion idr), while in indonesia, it was 3.6 trillion idr in 2016 (baznas, 2016; migdad, 2019). malaysia was 2.4 fold zakat collection compared to indonesia. however, total population in malaysia is only 10% from indonesia. this research aims to compare the incentive zakat agency mechanism between indonesia and malaysia. no previous research is found in this case, while zakat fundraising is an important issue in some muslim countries. most of previous studies only discussed zakat agency management (owoyemi, 2020; widiastuti, wahyuningsih, & indrawan, 2016), accountability and transparency of zakat agency (nikmatuniayah, marliyati, & a, 2017) in a single country. to contribute to fill this gap, this paper compares incentive zakat agency mechanism between indonesia and malaysia. some countries organize zakat collection and distribution because of its importance for social welfare (obaidullah, 2016). the optimal collection and distribution reduce the disparity between the rich and the poor. for that, some countries enhance the tax benefits such as tax deduction to incentivize zakat collection (widiastuti, mawardi, robani, & rusydiana, 2018). some empirical evidence revealed that tax deduction regulation affects the tax payment level (munandar et al., 2019). a high rate of zakat collection leads to sufficient resources to alleviate poverty and minimize economic injustice. for that, a high collection of zakat correlates with equal zakat distribution (ridwan, 2016). for this issue, zakat institutions should implement good governance for increasing public trust and zakat collection (amalia, 2019). some countries like malaysia and indonesia involve communities to be partners for collection and distribution. unfortunately, the different regulation between malaysia and indonesia provides different incentives and zakat collection. finally, zakat rebate can be an important factor for zakat payment in malaysia rather than in indonesia (nurhayati & siswantoro, 2015; siswantoro & nurhayati, 2012). zakat fund management structure has some such characteristics as centralized, decentralized, distributed, delegated, coordinated, supervised, isolated and integrated. indonesia practices the delegated type like that in egypt, international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 1-13 3 libya, while malaysia practices the decentralized characteristics like uea, yemen, and arab saudi (lubis, ridho lubis, & almaarif, 2019). however, both countries have similarities in zakat rebates and management. zakat would be effectively managed if it is under a government structure (dodik siswantoro, 2017). fundraising in the government and private sectors has different types. the government’s zakat institution would take zakat from the salary of state employees, while private zakat institutions would create an innovative program and accountability (kholis, sobaya, andriansyah, & iqbal, 2013). other institutions like the zakat unit of wonoketinggal village is combining two models of fundraising, namely direct and indirect fundraising. the first is more effective since the upz (zakat unit) has received support from the local government. they actively collect zakat from farmers (ridwan, 2016). the latest developments of islamic charities and their role as the major non-state actors in indonesia’s field of social welfare shows that islamic charity is no longer primarily associated with social welfare and social justice but increasingly with economic gain (kailani & slama, 2019). zakat management and credibility have contributed to the development of the zakat institution. this condition is also supported by the community as a mutual contribution (cokrohadisumarto, zaenudin, santoso, & sumiati, 2019). 2. methods the research method is based on a qualitative study that employs cases in indonesia and malaysia. two malaysian zakat institutions, including zakat units and zakat payers in malaysia, were interviewed. in indonesia, two zakat institutions, zakat units, and stakeholders participated in the research. the analysis would identify the comparison of incentive zakat agency mechanisms in indonesia and malaysia. both countries may share similar characteristics as they rooted in the same tradition of melayu ethnic. the main difference is that indonesia was under dutch colonialization while malaysia was under british colonialization with different legal systems and monarchies. the research method of data collection is information gathering from the zakat agency website about the coverage structure of zakat institution, zakat unit listing, category, payment, sharing ratio, and waiting type, zakat rebate. the data analysis is comparing coverage structure, listed in registered zakat institution, category of zakat unit, payment type, waiting time, sharing ratio, and zakat rebate for zakat unit in indonesia and malaysia. the research has applied trustworthiness to ensure the reliability and validity aspects. validity includes credibility and transferability, credibility by choosing competent resources and triangulation and transferability by description. reliability consists of dependability by saving and analyzing data and confirmability by providing research phases. 3. result and discussion the analysis of the issue of zakat fundraising incentive for zakat unit in indonesia and malaysia would be discussed in some topics as follows (see table 1). 4 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 1-15 table 1. comparison of zakat unit mechanism no description indonesia malaysia 1 coverage structure national, provinces, city/regency (state and private) state 2 listed in registered zakat institution not all listed mostly listed 3 category zakat unit zakat unit: varied 4 payment type government: fully private: partly full 5 waiting time government: 5 days private: none tentative (almost three months) 6 sharing ratio flexible (30% in general, 100% in specific cases) flexible (50% in general) 7 zakat rebate taxable income deduction tax deduction source: research data (2019) a. coverage structure of zakat institution the structure of zakat institutions in indonesia consists of three levels: national, provincial and local. this includes private and state zakat institutions. the requirements of private zakat institution for national level the minimum zakat fund collection is rp50 billion in one year; at the provincial level it is rp20 billion in one year; and at the local level, it is rp3 billion. besides, they must have three branches in their sub-regions. such terms and conditions do not apply to the state zakat organization as they can establish any zakat institution without any requirements. in aceh province, the structure of zakat is similar to that of other provinces, but they have a smaller structure until the district (kampong). in indonesia, the zakat unit is called unit pengumpul zakat (upz). upz can range from masjid to soes zakat institutions which were transformed to zakat unit due to the regulation. any illegal zakat collection without permission would be fined up to rp500 million and sentenced up to 5 years based on the act no. 23/2011 on zakat. the issues here are: 1) there would be conflicts in the level of province and city/regency for state zakat institutions as they share similar coverage. 2) conflicts may also occur among zakat institutions as they share similar zakat coverage. the issue here is double zakat receivers if zakat institutions share have similar coverage in zakat distribution. therefore, masjid as a zakat unit plays an important role in distributing zakat to the precisely needy and poor (see figure 1). each masjid has smaller coverage for zakat distribution. meanwhile, to empower people and the economy, masjid may have limitations to carry out this program. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 1-13 5 figure 1. masjid as zakat unit in indonesia source: research data (2019) in malaysia, states have different authorities to collect and disburse the zakat fund. to raise the zakat fund, some agents are based on online, bank, company, university, and school. each state may only collect and disburse zakat fund in their community in their state. b. zakat unit listing in indonesia, the list of zakat units is not always available in zakat institution information such as website and brochure. this presents a problem for zakat payers who want to give their zakat as zakat rebate as it is only given if zakat is paid under the registered zakat institution including zakat unit. only under the registered zakat institution can the payment of zakat be claimed for zakat rebate (zakat as taxable income deduction). therefore, there is a way to check if the zakat unit is under zakat institution or otherwise. table 2 shows that only baznas west java provides zakat units. table 2. zakat units in baznas west java no upz address 1 upz pemerintah provinsi jawa barat jalan diponegoro no.22, citarum, bandung wetan, kota

https://baznasjabar.org/content/unit-pengelola-zakat (2020) in malaysia, zakat units which are called agents or assistants are registered in zakat institution information. therefore, zakat payers would choose the closest zakat unit to give their zakat fund. this would ease and enhance the reliability of zakat payers as they would give zakat to the right place. figure 1 shows the list of zakat units of zakat selangor, while the zakat unit of pusat pungutan zakat (ppz) can be seen in appendix 1. https://baznasjabar.org/content/unit-pengelola-zakat international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 1-13 7 8 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 1-15 figure 1. zakat unit in zakat selangor brochure in zakat selangor, an agency can distribute zakat as well especially in university and school. the beneficiaries are students from related zakat units. this, however, would create a sense of belonging to the institutions where students study. c. category in indonesia, the zakat unit can collect and disburse the zakat fund. by regulation, the zakat unit is under act no. 23/2011. zakat unit is only mentioned under the government zakat institution at the levels of sub district (kecamatan) and village (kelurahan). based on the government regulation no. 14/2014, the government zakat institution can establish zakat units in any places such as government offices, companies, schools, and masjids, at the national, provincial, and local levels. zakat unit only collects zakat funds based on that regulation. upz is also supervised by the national zakat institution (baznas). this refers to the regulation of the ministry of religious affairs no. 30/2016. detailed regulation on the zakat unit is elaborated in the national zakat institution regulation no. 2/2016. zakat units can also distribute zakat funds after they fully transfer to the zakat institution. the maximum distribution is 70%, while masjid can distribute 100% of the zakat fund (article no. 35). international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 1-13 9 however, the zakat units under private zakat institutions are not explicitly regulated, but it is permissible to establish a zakat unit. meanwhile, in malaysia, there are two types of institutions. they only collect the zakat fund (penology amil) and collect and disburse the zakat fund (ejen). each state has different regulations on the zakat unit. zakat only collects and distribute in the specified state, and no across zakat distribution is allowed. d. payment, sharing ratio, and waiting time malaysia indonesia agency government institution mechanism 1 2 3 1 2 3 assistance private institution mechanism 1 2 1 2 figure 2. zakat mechanism type in indonesia, the mechanism of zakat fund payment to zakat institution can be classified into private type and government type. in private type, zakat units can only give partial zakat funds to the zakat institution. for example, zakat units can collect rp100 million. then they only give rp 30 million to the zakat institution. there is no waiting time as the zakat unit only gives a part of zakat to the zakat institution. in general, zakat units can only give 30% or less to the zakat institution based on the agreement of both parties. in government type, all zakat funds must be given to zakat units. if there are some distributions, zakat units can propose to the zakat institution. it takes about 5 days for the zakat fund to be distributed to zakat units. the maximum portion that zakat units can distribute is 70% for institutions and 100% for the masjid. this can be applied to any zakat unit institution. in the case of malaysia, zakat units must give fully rp100 million and in return, zakat units will get rp50 million. the amount includes the 6.5% portion for the amil (zakat zakat unit zakat institution zakat recipients zakat unit zakat institution zakat recipients zakat unit zakat institution zakat recipients zakat unit zakat institution zakat recipients 10 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 1-15 manager) in general. in indonesia, the maximum portion for amil (zakat manager) is not explicitly stated in the agreement. zakat units have to wait for around 2 months. this process continues so that the fund would come to zakat units any time since the first transfer. the mechanism of zakat fund type among zakat units, zakat institutions and zakat recipients can be seen in figure 2. e. zakat rebate zakat rebate can be an incentive for zakat payers as they give zakat to the registered zakat units. in indonesia, zakat payment can deduct taxable income. the process usually takes place after annual tax payment. when zakat payers want to propose a zakat rebate, they must propose restitution by filling the tax report. over tax payment would be paid after the restitution process. table 3 shows the difference between taxable income deduction and tax deduction. in malaysia, zakat deducts tax directly. for example, a muslim pays zakat of rm15, while his tax is rm30. therefore, he would have to pay tax only rm15 in that month. in malaysia, zakat rebates can be conducted anytime within a year. table 3. comparison of zakat rebate description zakat as a tax deduction zakat not as taxable income deduction zakat as a taxable income deduction taxable income 100 100 100 zakat 15 15 15 tax (rate 30%) 30 30 25.5 total paid 30 45 40.5 4. conclusion incentive zakat mechanism can be classified into two parties: (a) zakat units are legalized and authorized to distribute zakat fund to the surrounding areas that would create a sense of belongings to zakat payers and result in a zakat rebate; (b) zakat institution would also get bigger zakat fund from zakat units. zakat institution would get partial funds from zakat units. this would increase the coverage of potential zakat. in general, the participation of zakat units in the collection and distribution of zakat funds would benefit the surrounding community. in the long run, all zakat recipients would be covered by zakat units. this can be the originality of the research. the limitation of this study is only from public information and only comparing coverage structure of zakat institution, zakat unit listing, category, payment, sharing ratio, and waiting type, zakat rebate. for that, the data analysis is comparing coverage structure, listed in registered zakat institution, category of zakat unit, payment type, waiting time, sharing ratio, and zakat rebate for zakat unit in indonesia and malaysia. future research should broaden the information and also confirming the information by interviewing the officers from the zakat unit from both countries. also, next study should broaden and deepen the information analysis by empirical analysis. funding statement this work was supported by kementerian

(2013), closer attention needs to be paid to the issue of financial support for funerals, the limited amount of literature, and the mortality rate, which increases simultaneously with the elderly population. meanwhile, research from south africa showed that funeral costs are a huge expense for poor households (roth, 2001), as the households in the study spent about 15 times the average monthly income. hougaard & chamberlain (2015) also noted that the high cost in this country is due to the belief that funerals are a dignified activity and should be given priority, hence, including food and transportation for the attendees. lii (2007) stated that south african participants do not go through a medical examination process for the insurance funeral fund products, and the companies can apply a waiting period of up to six months for the benefits of natural and not accidental death. meanwhile, a delay of the premium paid due to financial difficulties does not result in a cancellation of the policy. a policyholder yet to pay is given one month, and the grace period is extended by a month for each valid year, with a maximum of six months for policies longer than one year. roth (2001) explained that the funeral fund in africa is provided through a non-profit scheme that features rotating savings and credit associations (rosca). in malaysia, the fund is provided by the mosque council to cover expenses and benefits related to the funeral of muslim family members (ismail et al., 2019) and is a part of the al-khairat scheme. conversely, managing funerals and death funds can be a family business in the us, and the methods and management offered are more professional and scalable (austin, 2018). funeral funding in indonesia is provided by either government, private, informal institutions, or the family. meanwhile, the management of funerals is usually performed by families of people who die on family-owned burial grounds. the government provides burial management through the regional or central division on grounds owned by them. hence, the management and tariffs relating to funeral costs are controlled by the local or central government regulations. conversely, the burial grounds offered by private parties is owned by domestic property companies, which also regulate the management and funeral. table 1 shows the funeral costs incurred by the private sector in indonesia and the data, shows the high cost of caring for corpses. table 1. funeral costs by government and private parties name of funeral management kind of management cost of funeral san diego hills private rp 37 million – rp 1.4 billion al azhar memorial garden private rp 43.5 million – rp 929.2 million raudhatul jannah private rp 39.1 million – rp 209.7 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 59 70 61 million dinas pemakaman kab. bogor governmen t rp 630 thousand – rp 2.1 million dinas pemakaman kota bogor governmen t rp 1.2 million (average) dinas pemakaman kota depok governmen t rp 500 thousand (average) source: processed from various sources, 2020 subsequently, the local government social services set the provisions regarding the types and amounts of benefits from funeral funding offered by them. the compensation for death is in a regional regulation (perda), which includes kediri (kediri mayor regulation, 2020), and gresik (regulation of the regent of gresik, 2017). others are padang (regulation of the mayor of padang, 2015), tulang bawang (regulation of the regent of tulang bawang, 2018), south tangerang (regional regulation of the city of south tangerang, 2018). funeral funding can also be provided by social security or informal micro-insurance (roth, 2000; hougaard, c, and chamberlain, d, 2011). these schemes can subsequently be categorized as micro-takaful, which is defined as an alternative to micro-insurance services with an islamic contract for an underprivileged community. it is born from a mutual agreement to help (ta'awun) in recovering from the risks of loss or certain calamities that befall the community (jaenudin et al., 20018). the main benefit of micro takaful in its implementation is executing allah's religion ى َعاَل َ ت َو ُ ه َ by manifesting ta'awun in virtue and piety. these are meant to bring good ُسْبَحان fortune to the muslim community and safety from the ugliness and consciousness of the individual roles and responsibility. consequently, ta'awun for an ummah is a manifestation of personality and the foundation in fostering the life of the people (qs al-ma'idah, 5: 2). ibn kathir explained that allah ta'ala asked his servants who believed to always help one another in righteousness, through the term, al-birru, meaning benevolence, and to leave all forms of reneging, through at-taqwa. a form of al-birru is helping families or relatives that are overwritten by the ordeal through death. meanwhile, the practice of micro takaful involves giving financial advice and benefits to society. whoever leaves advice to his brother and abandons him is, in essence, a deceiver and not their defender, as a consequence of loyalty is advising and helping in virtue and piety. hence, ta'awun in micro takaful entails realizing the consequences of wala '(loyalty) by muslims, according to allah's word ى َعاَل َ َو ت ُ ه َ .(qs al-tawbah, 9: 71)ُسْبَحان the management of funeral funds has been implemented by almost all homeowner associations in indonesia, making it interesting to observe, with the underlying reason for their existence being that poor families require help in the event of death. meanwhile, rt / rw management is the first party to receive reports from residents and needs a death compensation assistance scheme. they work together to raise funds for financing funeral expenses, which may be collected weekly or monthly. funeral funds managed by rt / rw aims to help residents and are one of the ta'awun management practices used to help the community (jaenudin et al., 2018). the scheme is managed by rt / rw, according to allah's orders, which urge people to work together or ta’awun in virtue and piety and forbid mutual worship in sin and hostility. previous studies on the management of funeral funds by informal institutions include ismail et al. (2019), prasojo et al. (2017), asrifah (2013), jirhanuddin et al. (2016). ismail et al. (2019) researched the practice of funeral fund (al-khairat) managed by mosque 62 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 59 70 administrators in selangor state, malaysia. some of the variables observed were member size, benefit schemes, marketing, and investment, using a research sample of 20 funds. subsequently, almost all the al-khairat funds were discovered to have been operating for more than 10 years with membership sizes of 100 to 700 participants and an average of about 500. additionally, prasojo et al. (2017) researched the practice of managing ta'awun funds at the al-hijriyah mosque in kerobokan village, badung regency, where each member pays a fee of rp 100,000/kk/year to the manager. the study had a more varied magnitude and method compared to the findings in the “rukun kifayah kerobokan (rkk).” the form of contribution was determined by deliberation and was consistent with the rkk case study findings. compensation for funerals can be claimed through submission to the “rukun kifayah kerobokan” head, and the benefits cover the costs for bathing, covering, and praying. the study found that the form of compensation provided could be money, groceries, body equipment, or rice, and the rkk reports management transparency every three months. therefore, funeral funds are managed by informal institutions, as well as the al-hijriyah mosque in kerobokan village (prasojo, et al., 2017). this scheme was named “rukun kifayah kerobokan” (rkk) and they explained that the management had not routinely made reports regarding compensations for death. furthermore, asrifah (2013) researched funeral funds managed by an insurance company, pt. bni life insurance, which handles death benefits, with various planning options for 1, 3, and 6 months. the members subsequently receive death benefits along with the profit obtained from the investment returns of b'life wadi'ah. also, jirhanuddin et al. (2016) conducted similar research on an informal institution, called "rukun kematian." the scheme aims to ease the burden on the heirs in managing bodies, funerals, and administrative arrangements in local governments. the study discovered that rukun kematian does not fully apply the principles of ta'awun during the distribution of compensation. this community organization applies the principle of a 3month waiting period. then, the members receive benefits after 3 months of membership, while those that experience the risk of death during the waiting period cannot obtain compensation. however, this is against the principle of providing help or ta'awun. this research differs in several ways compared to previous studies, particularly ismail et al. (2019) and prasojo et al. (2017), which were conducted on the operators of funeral fund management, namely mosques. research by ismail et al. (2019) was performed on mosques in selangor, malaysia, prasojo et al. (2017) in kerobokan village, badung regency, and jirhanuddin et al. (2016) on rukun kematian. research by asrifah (2013) was performed on formal funeral fund management, specifically insurance companies. meanwhile, this study aims to analyze how the concept of funeral fund scheme as part of micro takaful is carried out by the homeowner association. funeral funds managed by the homeowner associations certainly have many differences. they are motivated by the diversity of indonesian customs and cultures, as well as the financial capacity of the group. therefore, these differences in habits, culture, and environment are reasonably suspected to result in differences in the management of funeral funds in villages and residential areas. studies on the appropriateness of the rt / rw funeral fund management for the implementation of the ta'awun fund, as well as the differences and similarities between residential and village areas, are important for residents. the management of the body is "fardhu kifayah" and this is important for rt / rw administrators to understand. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 59 70 63 based on the background, this research aims to analyze whether the funeral funds managed by informal institutions in residential and village areas correspond with the micro takaful principle. the problems to be resolved are calculation, collection method, and amount of contributions of the funeral fund, alongside the calculation and amount of benefits. 2. method this research uses comparative and descriptive methods to conduct a causal analysis of the factors that cause the emergence of a phenomenon (baumgartner et al., 2011). the comparative study is performed without a hypothesis, and the most striking feature of this research form is that the incident under investigation is already happening. hence, it traces back the chronology of the events being examined to find a causal relationship, such that the generation of predictive answers indicates belonging to the hypothesized comparative study. conducting a comparative study begins with defining the research problem, followed by a literature review, and the formulation of assumptions to perform the basic procedures of comparative studies. then, the subjects and relevant data sources are chosen, and the collected data are compiled and classified, according to the study purpose. these categories are formed by exploring the nature, relationships, or similarities of the research object data. finally, the data is ready to be analyzed, validation techniques are performed, and the analysis is carried out. subsequently, the study used a random sampling technique with the sample of households in the two regions represented by a questionnaire that was submitted to the head of the rt / rw or community leader in charge of managing the neighborhood funeral funds. meanwhile, primary data was collected through questionnaires, by taking a sample representing the homeowner associations of residential and village areas as the scope and the smallest community structure. then, google form questionnaires were uploaded on the link https://forms.gle/61fqdajsjjimyhoe7 and distributed through wa groups, email, facebook, and other social media platforms. the questionnaire was answered by the chairman of homeowner associations or officials with authority. data was also collected through notes and audio recordings to simplify and support the processing and analysis, while the sample collection was for 1 month period from 12 june to 12 july 2020. to obtain the expected amount of data, this study used slovin's random sampling with the formula: furthermore, the population included all the rt / rw and community leaders in java island, with an expected sample size was 84, while the collected data was processed via the description and stratification. the description was performed to describe the questionnaire results, which were further analyzed through a narrative, and the stratification was by grouping the interview data results according to the village and residential areas. 3. result and discussion with a target of 84 samples, this study managed to collect data from 31 respondents, https://forms.gle/61fqdajsjjimyhoe7 64 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 59 70 meaning 37% of the target was covered. although the number did not meet the target, it was better than previous studies, as research by prasojo et al. (2017) used 1 sample, which al-hijriyah mosque, kerobokan village, north kuta district, badung regency. asrifah (2013) and jirhanuddin et al. (2016) also used 1 sample each, comprising pt. bni life insurance jakarta and rkm puntun, palangka raya, respectively, while ismail et al. (2019) utilized 20 samples from mosques in selangor state, malaysia. the data collected was processed and analyzed by dividing the two groups, namely the residential and village areas. this was unlike previous research by prasojo et al. (2017), asrifah (2013), jirhanuddin et al. (2016), and ismail et al. (2019), which did not perform a comparative analysis of these two communities. subsequently, the respondents' residences were 62%, 15%, 14%, and 9% living in west java, dki jakarta, banten, and east java, respectively. the east and south areas of dki jakarta comprised 50% of the respondents each, while the west java region consisted of 45%, 20%, and 5% in bogor, depok, and garut, respectively, alongside 15% each in bandung and bekasi. furthermore, the east java region was composed 33% in gresik and 67% in malang, while banten comprised 25% in pamulang and serang each, alongside 50% in tangerang. the data showed that 49% of the respondents lived in residential areas, while 51% were village residents. a. calculation of contribution according to figure 1, 72% of the respondents in the village had calculations of the contribution and 28% did not, while 47% from the residential area had them and 53% did not. the data above shows that there was a predominant method of calculating funeral fund contribution in the management of rt and rw in the village. however, this number does not yet indicate that the literacy of this management in the calculation process. figure 1. calculation of funeral fund contribution sources: processed data table 2 shows the data of the village area respondents of the contribution calculation, where a proportion of 56% explained that it used a mutual agreement at a community meeting. conversely, 25% proposed the rt and rw management meeting, then determination at a meeting of all residents, while the remaining 19% chose the meeting of residents only. conversely, 47% of the residential area respondents that answered had contribution calculations, where 53% explained that it employed mutual agreement at a community meeting. however, 33% chose the proposal at the rt and rw management meeting, international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 59 70 65 followed by determination at a meeting of all residents, while 13% selected the meeting of all residents. table 2 also shows that the determination of contribution calculations is made through community meetings in both areas, with 53% and 56% outcomes for the resident and groups. this fact shows that calculating contributions of funeral funds are not through actuarial techniques but via an agreement with the deliberation method, as stated by prasojo et al. (2017). table 2. method of funeral fund calculation method resident village 1 agreement at a neighborhood meeting 53% 56% 2 proposing at the rt and rw management meeting, then determining at a meeting of all residents 33% 25% 3 meeting all residents 13% 19% sources: processed data b. collection method of funeral fund contribution the predominant method of funeral fund contribution in residential areas was performed by officers, at a proportion of 65%, 29% was handed over by community members, while 6% were positioned in a place and picked up. however, this third method of contribution was paid with rice and not cash. conversely, direct payment of the contribution by the community members to the officers was dominant in the village area and performed by 67%, 28% was picked up, while the remaining 6% was kept in front of the house to be picked up by the manager. this finding shows that officers actively collect funeral funds from community members in residential areas, which differs from village areas, where the members actively visit the officers. this visitation habit corresponds with the study by prasojo et al. (2017), where the participants came to the rkk head to pay contributions. meanwhile, there is a common tradition in both residential and village areas, involving the collection of the funeral fund by the officer after placement in a mutually agreed site, usually in front of the house. the contribution is usually in the form of rice rather than cash. subsequently, this finding is different from previous studies by prasojo et al. (2017), asrifah (2013), jirhanuddin et al. (2016), and ismail et al. (2019) who found that the payment was solely in cash. furthermore, 34% of the residential area respondents stated that the amount of rice was not determined, while 33% each gave answers of as much as 1 cup and between 501 grams -1 kg. conversely, 43% in the village area stated that the amount was more than 1kg, 29% responded that it was voluntary, while 14% each stated 1 glass and between 251 -500 grams. this data shows that the villagers are predominantly able to pay funeral funds with rice weighing more than 1 kg/month, whereas the residential area respondents give rice contributions without any provisions. c. amount of contribution fund the payment in residential areas was predominantly more than rp 10,000, as stated by 66 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 59 70 59%, and rp. 3,001 5,000, according to 24%. however, 6% each paid below rp. 3,000 and between rp. 7,501 10,000, while the remaining 5% paid the contribution voluntarily. in the village, 55% of the respondents gave between rp. 3,001 and rp. 5,000, 17% between rp. 7,501 10,000, 11% offered more than rp. 10,000, while the remaining 17% was voluntary. this data shows that residential areas pay more funeral funds than the villages. there were differences in the ability to pay contributions, as the residential communities had more capabilities than the rural areas. the contribution paid by the residential community was equal to that of the ‘rukun kematian’ members at idr 10,000 / month (jirhanuddin et al., 2016). it was almost similar to that by rkk members at idr 100,000 / year (prasojo et al., 2017). meanwhile, the highest contribution of funeral funds was rp 10,000/month or rp 120,000/year, which was below the contribution managed by mosques in selangor. according to ismail et al. (2019), more than 50% of al-khairat contributes rm 50/year or an equivalent of rp. 176,000/year. the lowest contribution was 26% by rp. 3,001 –5,000 or an equivalent of rp. 36,01260,000 / year. this amount was much smaller than the contribution managed by mosques in selangor, which was rm25 / year or equivalent to rp. 88,454.5. although the difference between malaysian and indonesian contributions and benefits is relatively high, this study did not include the purchasing power parity variable. hence, the comparison has not been able to capture the benefits provided by the respective amounts of contributions and benefits. furthermore, the collected funds were entirely for benevolence and funeral expenses, and this finding corresponds with the al-khairat fund management in selangor, where there is no investment policy. al-khairat or charity funds, which can also be part of social insurance for the sick, are managed by the mosque committee and any member who wants coverage is asked to voluntarily contribute (ismail et al., 2019). d. calculation of funeral fund benefits about 59% of the residential area respondents predominantly have calculations of the funeral fund benefit, while the remaining 41% do not. conversely, 83% of the village have calculations of the benefits, while 17% do not, showing that this community possesses greater understanding in calculating the benefits of the funeral fund compared to residential areas. however, this amount does not show that the rt and rw management in the village has literacy in this calculation process, as indicated by the respondents.' the analysis showed that 54% of them use the 'deliberation with the rt / rw management' method. conversely, 33% apply the 'proposed at the rt and rw management meeting, followed by determination at the residents,' while 13% employ the 'meeting of all residents' method. this finding corresponds with studies by prasojo et al. (2017), where the determination of funeral fund benefits was by the rkk manager, as well as asrifah (2013) by insurance management. however, it differs from ismail et al. (2019), where three mosques were shown to have criteria for determining benefits, according to the takaful principle. in residential areas, 56% employed the 'proposed at the rt and rw management meeting' method, 25% used the 'proposed at the rt / rw meeting and determined through community meetings,' while 19% applied the 'determined at the meeting of all residents.' consequently, the data showed that agreeing on the funeral fund benefits through a meeting of the rt / rw management as the determining party is sufficient for the village international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 59 70 67 and residential areas. e. amount of funeral fund benefit the amount of funeral fund benefit received by the heirs in the village area was dominantly between rp. 500,000 1,000,000, as stated by 50%, between rp. 1,000,001 3,000,000, according to 11%. meanwhile, 17% receive voluntarily, 16% obtain below rp 500,000, while 6% are given between rp. 3,000,000 – 5,000,000. the number of benefits from funeral funds in residential areas was relatively the same as in villages. subsequently, 56% of the respondents in residential areas obtained monetary benefits between rp. 500,000 rp. 1,000,000, 20% got between rp. 1,000,000 rp. 3,000,000, while 24% were paid voluntarily. meanwhile, these amounts were smaller than the total compensation of idr 1,500,000 idr 2,000,000, according to jirhanuddin et al. (2016). it was also different from prasojo et al. (2017), which found that participants received benefits through services, such as the process of bathing, dressing, and praying for the body. meanwhile, ismail et al. (2019) discovered that the benefits received by participants were similar to prasojo et al. (2017) and also included transportation services to funeral sites and offerings of prayers. f. recommendations the micro takaful concept is a mutual guarantee of individual contribution to an insurance fund managed optimally to increase the prevention of risks and strengthen the security of members. subsequently, the informal funeral funding scheme (iffs), as part of the micro takaful concept is performed by the homeowner association by collecting a few funds from the members. for a long time, this association has practiced iffs as a means of helping members of the community that have suffered death. iffs is a cooperative scheme that embodies the spirit of takaful. the muamalat teachings displayed by the contracts are based on partnerships, as stated by jaenudin et al. (2018), and include mudharabah, wakalah, waqf, wakalah bil ujrah, musyarakah, and mudharabah musytarakah. for instance, during the use of mudharabah contracts in iffs, participants' donations can be managed by the homeowner association. figure 2 subsequently explains the underwriting process. figure 2. iffs simple contribution this program is assumed to provide compensations of rp 5.000.000 per person for 68 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 59 70 their family welfare assistance and funeral costs, according to the stipulated provisions. therefore, communities, especially low-income groups, will greatly feel the impact of micro takaful benefits and the ta'awun concept. the collection methods of database information from the target groups, called scheme participants include: a. members of the homeowner association categorized as poor have a status that is determined from time to time. b. the recipients of this scheme's benefits are dependents on the death event of the head of their household. c. the following will be considered as recipients of the benefits and each family will be given an amount of rp 3.500.000 or 5.000.000. this scheme still requires deep work to deepen the penetration into the community, and the public awareness needs to be part of the virtues of contributing to the benefits. consequently, this will have a direct impact on raising the living environment by providing services and assistance to the community. hence, the role of the local government to appeal to the public about the importance of being a participant in iffs is required. community leaders, ulama, chairmen of mosque committees, and homeowner associations are important parts of iffs success. they are required to convince the community and entrusted to make iffs well equipped as a new product for the transformation of micro cooperatives, and also by attending relevant courses and training. therefore, this program requires stakeholders to follow procedures that correspond to the micro takaful-related regulations stipulated by the government. 4. conclusion the funeral funds managed by homeowner associations were shown to not fulfill the takaful principle, as observed through the variables of calculation, collection method, and amount of contribution fund, alongside the calculation of and amount of benefits. meanwhile, a unique finding was that the contribution payments were by giving rice, as well as cash, as observed in almost all research objects in the residential and village areas. research findings of funeral fund management between village and residential areas as shown in table 3. table 3. comparison between residential and village areas village residential 1 calculation of contribution mutual agreement at a community meeting a mutual agreement at a community meeting 2 method of collecting the funeral fund contribution the contribution is paid directly to the officers by the community members contribution collection is performed by officers 3 amount of contribution fund between rp. 3,001 and rp. 5,000 more than rp 10,000 4 calculation of funeral fund benefits deliberation with the rt / rw management proposing at the rt and rw management meeting, then determination at a meeting of all residents international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 59 70 69 5 amount of funeral fund benefit between rp. 500,000 rp. 1,000,000. between rp. 500,000 rp. 1,000,000 this study suspects that the method of calculating takaful through money may not sufficiently or fully accommodate this form of compensation. another argument states that a development strategy that involves the private and public sectors is needed to accelerate the management of funeral funds and provide more maslahah (austin, 2018). in residential areas, the officers actively collect funeral fund contributions from community members, unlike villages, where the members actively visit the officers. furthermore, there is a common tradition in both areas, as the fund is collected through placement in a mutually agreed site, usually in front of the house, where the officer will collect the contributions, which are in the form of rice not cash. references asrifah, a. pengelolaan dan pemberian santunan duka. maliyah, 3(2), 148477. austin, d. w.

agenda and a critical issue of all countries; particularly in developing countries. in ethiopia, lack of employment opportunities for educated young people is a critical development challenges facing the country. the objective of this study was to identify the determinants of graduate youth unemployment. to answer the research objective data was collected by a structured questionnaire from 312 samples of respondents, wherein a snow ball sampling technique was used and data was analysed using mixed research design, descriptive and casual design; where a binary logistic regression model used to examine the relationship between dependent and independent variables. the result indicated that amongst the nine variables of the determinants of graduate youth unemployment; education, number of graduates, work experience, career advice, market information, family income, aspire to the low-income job, and education quality, all were significantly affected unemployment rate except entrepreneurial ability. as a result, based on these findings, it can be recommended that there is a critical need for government, ngos and all other stakeholders to work on these determinants to reduce graduate unemployment. international journal of islamic business and economics available at http://e-journal.iainpekalongan.ac.id/index.php/ijibec issn 2599-3216 e-issn 2615-420x vol 3 no 2

among the fundamental macro-economic problems the recently rising and threatening the whole nation is the problem of youth unemployment, particularly graduated youth unemployment. youth unemployment is a fundamental problem facing and challenging the social, political and economic activities of all countries. according to msigwa and kipesha, (2013) an active and qualified youth has the potential to change the social and economic development of the country if they are well managed and involved in all important sectors of the economic activities of the country. however, youth those have ample potential to influence and change the socioeconomic activities of counties becoming a major policy challenge for all nations in the world due to unemployment problem. unemployment is becoming sources of complex and significant crises such as rising crime rates and violence, dependence on family, low self-esteem, poor social adaptation, depression, and loss of confidence that devastate and hamper the socio economic development of the country (kabaklarli et al, 2011). as ilo (2001) defined, unemployment is a condition of being without work but actively seeking available job at the prevailing wage level in the given period of time; while graduate unemployment is a type of unemployment among people holding academic degrees (saptakee, 2001). graduate unemployment is caused by countless of factors some of which involve a difference between aspirations, skills, and self-concept of graduates and employment opportunities available to them (sampson, 1992). several studies have conducted various studies in different parts of the world and investigated different factors and their impacts on youth unemployment. according the investigations made, the study done by assad & levison (2013), baah-boateng (2016) on reasons of employment inadequacy for youth identified low rate of job creation and increasing environmental threats as major factors for youth unemployment. muhammedhussen (2016) show that youth unemployment’s dream to create their own job is constrained highly by shortage of finance and lack of work place. similarly, the result of msigwa & kipesha (2013), bayrak & tatli (2014), baldry (2015), ndyali (2016), nyarko, baah-boateng, & nketiah-amponsah (2015) identified gender, location, education, skills, and marital status as important factors for youth employment. further, kakwagh & agnes (2010) and asmare & mulatie (2014) also revealed that increasing population growth, a high degree of geographical mobility, lack of employable skills, and low participation of youth in decision-making processes and the perception of policy makers were the primary factors for high youth unemployment rate. the developing countries are more victimized than others and ethiopia has its own long history of unemployment than any other countries. ethiopia is a poor agrarian country with per capita income of usd 350 (world bank, 2011). however, recently the country has been started to register an encouraging economic growth and significant reductions in poverty (woldehanna, hoddinott, and dercon, 2008). in the same way, the economist (january 6, 2011) reported that ethiopia had ranked as the fifth fastest growing economy in the world through the periods 2001-2010 and forecasted to grow at 8.1% during 2011-2015. in spite of the recently started promising economic growth still the rate of underemployment and unemployment remained high and becoming the serious socio-economic problems of the country (bimal & kayak, 2014). some of the limited studies that addressed the employment challenges in ethiopia made by (wb, 2007; nzinga & tsegay, 2012; and yohannes & missaye, 2014). then based on the reviewed literature, some of the common predictors that influence graduate youth unemployment were: the number of graduated youth, family economic performance, levels of education, entrepreneurship skills, access to job information, quality of education, the international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 90-103 92 absence of career advice, aspires to low income jobs and work experience. hence, the purpose of this study was to investigate determinants of graduate unemployment. 2. research method this this research used a mixed research design means descriptive and casual design. the descriptive design employed using descriptive statistics such as frequency mean and cross tab and casual design employed binary logistic regression to investigate the impact of the various independent variables under the considerations on the dependent variables. for this study, primary data was collected from unemployed and employed graduated youths based on the data at the end of 2008 e.c and used the questionnaire as data collection instrument. the populations of the study were 11,595 unemployed graduated youth registered in zonal labor and social affairs office of west shoa zone at the end of 2008 e.c. from this population 346 sample size calculated using yemane taro formula (1967) by using 95 % confidence level & 0.05 precision levels and the sampling techniques used were systematic and snowball sampling system. but from the total sample calculated only data collected from 312 were edited and analyzed. this study used a binary logistic regression model. the particular model was chosen by the researchers’ based on the behavior of the dependent variable; where the dependent variable is categorical variable with two groups (employed & unemployed which valued as 1 & 0 respectively). the researchers had chosen the cumulative logistic regression model for its easiness and more significant interpretation of odds ratio; even though the logit model yield similar parameter estimates (gujarati, 2004). therefore, the binary logistic regression model of a dichotomous dependent variable which is takes either 1 or 0 value depending on y is used. the probability that the outcome is present (probability of success) will be given by: we obtain the odds of success as: in logistic regression analysis, it is assumed that the explanatory variables affect the response through a suitable transformation of the probability of the success. the transformed variable, denoted by logit (π) is the log-odds and is related to the explanatory variables as: where = (β0, β1, β2… βk) are the model parameters and = (x1, x2… xk) are explanatory variables. the above equations give suitable representations of the success probability, odds, & log-odds. indeed, these representations facilitate interpretations of parameter estimates. the parameter refers to the effect of xi on the log odds that y = 1, controlling the other x’s in the model. finally employed model

were male and the remaining 145(46.50%) of them were female. the gender ratio of the respondents was fairly equally represented in the sample. similarly, the distribution of level of education of the respondents shown on the same table 1, were 210(67.31%) of them were academically from level 1-4 and the rest 102(32.69%) of them were held ba degree. the results show that out of the total respondents, the majority about 67.31% of the graduated unemployed were from level 4. table 1 also display the distribution of the status of graduate unemployment, from table 1, 76(24.36%) of the respondents were employed and 236(75.64%) of them were unemployed. this shows that the majority, three-fourths, of the graduated youth unable to be employed. 3.1. descriptive analysis of factors

from survey data table 2 presents gender and education distribution by graduate unemployment status. this objective was to investigate whether there is a relationship between gender and status of graduate unemployment; level of education and graduate unemployment status a cross tab between the variables done on table 2 above. the cross tabulation indicate that males were more employed 15.38 %, compared to females 8.97% graduated and also 38.15% % of the males graduated were unemployed compared to 37.5 % of the females graduated. this shows the existence of an association between gender difference and unemployment status. also the pearson chi-square shows the existence of a major variance between graduated males and females status in unemployment, where the p-value is 0.053 at the p < .05 level. this is the fact that males are less restricted by family and culture to go freely where they like compared to female in actively searching for opportunities. similarly, the cross tab made between level of education and unemployment status also show that only 7.69% of respondents from level 1-4 of educational status employed compared to 16.67% of respondents employed in ba degree, or 59.62% of the respondents within level 1-4 education status were unemployed compared to 16.02% of the respondents with education status of ba degree holder. also, the chi-square test further revealed that there is a statistically strong relationship between education level and unemployment condition at 5% probability level. the findings showed the inverse and significant relationship between the levels of education. this means that unemployment status means as education level increases unemployment decreases. table 3. number of graduate and work experience distribution by graduate

of 82.37%of the respondents were unemployed as a result the large number of graduate which constitute around 66.99% compared to small 8.66%. as indicated in table 3 the chi-square test also shows the significant statistical relationship between work experience needed and unemployment status. among the key factors that responsible for the unemployment of graduated youth one of the major variables is absence of work experience. as shown in table 3, 63.46% of the respondents indicated that different job vacancy announced at different times needed high work experience rather than a fresh graduate with zero experience. only 24.36% of respondents indicated that the job vacancy needs low work experience. the result of the cross tab also shows that 75.64% of the respondents were unemployed as a result of the lack of high work experience compared to 24.36% of those employed with high work experience requirement. the chi-square test also shows the significant statistical relationship between work experience needed and unemployment status. table 4.career advice and job information distribution by graduate unemployment dependent variable career advice provision. total test low high x2 sig

international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 90-103 96 career advice is important especially for unemployed graduate youth. provision of a good career advice for unemployed graduate youth energizes to search better job, rather than merely being employed in any organization or motivate them to start their own job freely rather than searching to be employed in private or public organization. as table 4 shows, that among the respondents, 49.3% of them replied that they acquired low career advice about 42.31% unemployed and the remaining 50.32% replied that they got high career advice, which is about 33.33% unemployed. similarly, the cross tab shows that 16.99% of graduated youth with high career advice employed compared to 7.37% of graduated youth are employed with low career advice, or only 43.91% of graduated youth are employed with low career advice compared to 31.73% of graduated youth unemployed with high career advice. the chi-square test also shows the significant relationship between career advice and graduate youth unemployment level. labor market information plays a significant role in maintaining the efficiency of the labor market. labor market information is scarce, and is not available to all job seekers. improved accessibility to information more requires the availability of facilities as transportation, availability of newspaper where the job to be announced and internet facility. for graduated youth from poor families and those living in the remote rural area further from better facilities getting job information is unusual. table 4 shows; that the availability of labor market information also influences the level of graduated youth unemployment. in table 4, 57.05% of the respondents replied that there was low availability of labor market information and 42.95% of them replied there was highly available market information for graduated youth. then we can conclude that as job information was available unemployment is decreasing. but the chi-square test is 0.53, which means there is no statistically significant relationship between the labor market information and graduated unemployment status. table 5. family income and aspire to job distribution by graduate unemployment dependent variable family income/economic performance total test low income medium income x2 sig. graduate

strong correlation between the employments of graduated youth and their family economic/income level. unemployment and family’s level of income have a marked two ways relationship, where household income is higher unemployment rates lower and the vice-versa. table 5 display, 57.37 % of the respondents were from the family of low economic performance and the remaining 42.63% were from medium family economic performance. besides, the frequency distributions the cross tab between family economic performance and the unemployment status of the graduated youth. the result show that, 18.27% of employed graduated youth were from the family of medium economic performance compared to 6.09% of employed graduated youth from low-income earner, or only 68.27% unemployed from the family of low-income earner compared to 24.36% of unemployed graduated youth from the family of medium economic performer. the variables are statistically significant at 5% level of significance. employment status also influenced by aspires of graduate to join low salary/income jobs. as indicated in table 5, 77.56% of the respondents had a low aspiration to join low salary jobs from this about 68.27% was unemployed while the remaining 22.44% % had a high aspiration to join low salary jobs and from this about 7.37% was unemployed and the left 15.07% employed. this result shows that the relationship is statistically significant at 5% level. table 6. entrepreneurship and education quality distribution by graduate unemployment variables employed unemployed t-value value sig. value n mean sd n mean sd

level. sd = standard deviation poor quality of education and graduation of students without acquiring enough knowledge and understanding the contents and objective of the curriculum designed and lack of desired theoretical and practical knowledge created high unemployment problem in ethiopia (british council, 2014). similarly, the emphasis is given by ethiopian government to high education coverage regardless that the education quality created poor education quality that made graduated student incompetent relative to the requirements of the labor market (guarcell & rosita, 2009). table 6 shows; the mean of 2.89 of response of employed graduated youth education quality was more than the mean.2.31, the response of unemployed graduated youth education quality. the result showed that the mean score of the employed graduated youth are positive and significance at less than 5% level of significance. therefore, it can be concluded that low quality of education leads to high unemployment status. the other variable that influences the graduated youth unemployment is their entrepreneurship ability. table 6 shows, that the mean response of employed graduated youth entrepreneurship ability is 3.1 compared to 2.98 mean response of unemployed graduated youth entrepreneurship ability. the t-value, 0.167, is not statistically sufficiently significant at 5% level of significance. therefore, one can generalize that entrepreneurial ability of graduated international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 90-103 98 youth is not significantly related to graduated youth unemployment status. this means that whether the graduated unemployed youth have enough entrepreneurship skills or not, it does not matter to be employed or not. 3.2. binary logistic regression results as mentioned in the methodology section logic model was chosen to identify the causes of graduate unemployment in the target area of study. the correlation of the independent variable was conducted so as to test whether the problem of co-linearity exists or not. thus, it was found that there was no significant multi-co-linearity issue between the examined explanatory variables. the log likelihood ratio also tested and presented as follows. 3.3. model summary table 7. model summary -2 log likelihood cox & snell r square nagelkerke r square 131.753 .497 .742 source: analysis result in general, -2log likelihood (-2ll) is a measure of badness of-fit, illustrating error remaining in the model after accounting for all independent variables. the -2ll of 131.753 shows that there is no major error left over in the model. the model summary provides some approximation of r2 statistic in logistic regression. cox and snell r2 or nagelkerke r2 is an analogous statistic in logistic regression to the coefficient of determination r2in linear regression, but not close analogue. cox and snell’s r2 attempts to imitate multiple r2 based on likelihood. in this study, cox and snell r2 indicate that 49.7% of the deviation in the dependent variable was explained by the explanatory variables. nagelkerke r2 in the table 7 is 0.742 that shows 74.2% of the variability in the dependent variable using of graduate unemployment method was explained by the explanatory variables. 3.4. multy-co-linearity table 8. multi-co-linearity model co

multi-co-linearity might push up standard errors; but until there is not any perfect multico-linearity there is no bias if regression estimates will be used. for the purpose of the problem of perfect multi-co-linearity among the variables, variance inflated factors (vif) are estimated and displayed in the above table 8. for this particular study, variance inflation factor for all variables tested and resulted below 10; showing that there is no signal of colinearity that does influence the main variable of interest in a model. therefore, it can be concluded that multi-colinearity is not a problem in the data. baum (2006) explained that near co-linearity that doesn't affect the key variable of concern in a model cannot be a difficult issue and can be ignored. 3.5. binary logistic result

independent variables are shown in table 9. the “sig” column conveys the significance (or p-value) of all variables whereas β values show the trend of the association of a specific independent variable to the dependent variable. on the other side, exp (β) column denotes the odds ratio. using 0.05 and 0.1 level of significance as a standard for the test of statistical significance, the coefficients of all the variables are statistically significant, except entrepreneurship. as a result, the study reveals that education level and graduate youth unemployment have a positive relationship. the odds ratio of being unemployment rises by .045 as a unit individual graduate from higher education and gets a certificate increase. this may be because of individuals’ job preference; the presence of high competition in the government sectors and the slow growth of the private sector as compared to the number of youth graduates per year. the results confirm the study of (nganwa, assefa, & mbaka, 2015) that shows having an education certificate did not guarantee employment. likewise, the reason why unemployment rates is higher for educated young is absence of resources to support full-time job search in international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 90-103 100 ethiopia like many other developing countries unlike the situations in latin american countries (godfrey, 2003). similarly, nebil, gezahegn & hayatet (2010) revealed that low level of education is a reason for unemployment in ethiopia. also the result of study made by broussar & tekelesilassie (2012) show that youth with grater education were less likely to be unemployed. this shows that the labor demand has not been able to accommodate in terms of number and diversified graduating students with different skills. the number of graduates and unemployment has a positive relationship from table 9, which means that as the number of the graduates increases in the selected area, unemployment also increases. the results indicate statistically significant relationship at 10% level of significance. for this variable, the odds ratio is 3.167. this implies that a 1 percent increase in the number of graduates the unemployment increase by 3.167 times. table 9, further provided that if all other variables are being fixed, the odds of a graduate youth with low work experience to be unemployed were approximately 9.23 times higher than those of youth having work experience. this implies that a graduate youth who has a relatively low work experience is more likely to be unemployed, compared to those with adequate job experience. the result is statistically significant at (p <0.001) at 1% level; and the result confirms the conclusions of duong & vanet (2005) and hassen (2005). the study has also shown the existence of inverse relationship between career advice and unemployment. the odd ratio was .217. this implies that as a 1% decrease in career advice result to 21.7% increase of graduate youth unemployment. as a result, the relationship between access to job information and graduate youth unemployment was negative and statistically significant at 10% level. the odds ratio was .393. this implies that as access to job information decrease by 1% the probability of graduate unemployment is increased by 39.3%. the result shows that lack of access to job information significantly affect youth unemployment status. regarding the relationship between family income and youth unemployment status, the results show that individuals from low-income families are more unemployed compared to those from high-income families and the results are statistically significant at a 1% level of significance. the odds ratio of unemployed graduate youth decreases by .069 if their families are high economic performance. the result is because of the fact that graduated youth from high and middle income families are in better position to search jobs from everywhere available without finance limitation or able to start their own business with minimum initial capitals. the result confirm the finding of (amanuel, 2016) that show graduated youth whose family is poor are more likely to be unemployed related to those from better income family. aspire to the job and graduate unemployment has a negative relationship and the odds ratio was .017. this implies that as the interest too low income decreased by 1% the probability of graduate unemployment increase by 1.7 %. the result goes with the finding of serneels (2004) that stated people prefer earning wage informal employment in public or private sector than self-employment due to the fear of hard work and risk of self-employment. as revealed in table 9 there was a negative relationship between entrepreneurship skill and unemployment. but it is not significant since the p-value is greater than 0.06 (0.942>0.05). this implies that as entrepreneurship ability increase by 1% the probability of unemployment may be decreased by 1.063 as odd ratio reports. this may be in case of any graduated individuals not needing to have entrepreneurial ability, but they can create job opportunities for graduates. according to un habitat (2003) people are driven to make their own jobs because of the low probability of getting jobs in the labor market. 101 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 90-103 table 9 also display the statistically significant (p = 0.00 < 0.05) and inverse relationship between quality of education and graduate youth unemployment. similarly, the odds of welltrained graduate youth being unemployed were .016 times lower than those of less quality. the results support the findings of gebeyaw (2011) that concluded the inverse relationship between training and unemployment. the implication of this result is that, training is one of the important strategies for decreasing youth unemployment. 4. conclusion based the aim of the study was to investigate the determinants of graduate youth unemployment in west shoa zone, ethiopia. the study used mixed research design, descriptive and casual design; a binary logistic regression model used to examine the relationship between dependent and independent variables. the conclusions from the results of the descriptive analysis show that the existence of close association at 5% level of significance between gender difference and unemployment status, the inverse and significant relationship between the levels of education and unemployment, significant and positive statistical relationship between work experience needed and unemployment status, and significant relationship between career advices and graduate youth unemployment level; whereas insignificant statistical relationship between the labor market information and graduated unemployment status; entrepreneurial ability of graduated youth and graduated youth unemployment status at 5% level of significance. on the other hand, before the analysis of the binary logistic regression, the researchers checked the existence of the problem of multi co-linearity and proved that there was no significant multi-co-linearity issue between the explanatory variables under investigations. therefore, the results of binary logistic regression show that out of the nine explanatory variables, eight variables including number of graduate, job information and work experience are significantly related to unemployment rate at 5% level of significance; whereas education level, career advice, aspire to low income job, family income, and quality of education are statistically significant at 0% level of significance; however entrepreneurial ability is not significantly related to unemployment rate at 5% level of significance. generally, the results of this research, reinforce the earliest well-known education and knowledge theory introduced by ibnu khaldun in islamic economics regarding labor. ibnu khaldun stressed the professionalism, skills and specialization that must be possessed by workers to get the right position. further, the result support human capital theory that proved education could support smooth employment and rise employment wages by enhancing people’s distribution efficiency. acknowledgement first of all we would like to express our deepest gratitude to the staff of west shoa zone workers and social affairs office for their heartily support during data collection. our special thanks also go to respondents for sacrificing their valuable time in filling the questionnaire. references abshoko, a. d.

(2001) reported that all the performance measure in product development can be grouped into three main categories. the first category is the time which comprises average time to market, on-time delivery and schedule adherence. npd performance (lee, 2008) is often referred to as the extent to which the new product has achieved its expected performance, including profit margin, return on assets and return on investment. the second category is the cost which includes total project cost against budget, profitability analysis (performance against objectives), product cost, actual to predicted profit on products, product development cost as percentage of turnover and margin analysis. the third category was stated as the number and nature of engineering change requests per project, adherence to original product specification and field trials which were described as quality and customer. o’dwyer and ledwith (2009) grouped np performance measures under five categories, (1) market-level measures; (2) financial measures; (3) customer measures; (4) product level measures; and (5) timing measures. nevertheless, amongst the five categories, customer and financial measures were termed “core success/failure measures” (griffin and page, 1993; im et al., 2003). godener and soderquist (2004) identified seven areas of measurement that were related to npd which are financial performance measurements, customer satisfaction measurements, process management measurements, innovation measurements, strategic measurements, technology management measurements and knowledge management measurements. sherman et al. (2005) utilized six performance variables in their investigation. of these six variables, product prototype development proficiency, product launch proficiency and design change frequency were processoriented performance variables. while variables like market forecast accuracy and technological core competency fit were grouped as performance competencies, the only standalone variable was product development cycle time. ledwith and o’dwyer (2009) reported that new product performance is measured in terms of market-level measures, financial measures, customer acceptance measures, product-level measures and timing measures. liu et al. (2005) identifed international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 2 7 3 7 29 three performance measures are as follows, (1) new product life cycle; (2) new product sales and profits; and (3) time to market for new product. we adapt the npd performance measures proposed by akroush (2012) in the present study, two npd performance measures are as follows financial performances, and customer performance. npd innovation innovation is vital to the survival of modern corporations (ko, to, zhang, ngai, & chan, 2011). rogers (1983) defined an innovation asan idea, practice, or object that is perceived as new by an individual or other unit of adoption. a product, service, or process can be the subject of innovation (bhoovaraghavan and vasudevan 1996).schumpeter (1934)classifies innovations in two types: (1) radical and (2) incremental. radical innovations are those originating from the process of creative destruction, a term coined to explain technological or market paradigm breakthroughs, shifting to something completely new and that can be represented by a product or a process. product innovativeness refers to the level of perceived newness,originality, and uniqueness of a product (garcia & calatone, 2002). for any organization, npd innovation is crucial in achieving the success. vinayak & kodali (2014) proposed six elements npd innovation, (1) product innovation; (2) process innovation; (3) market innovation; (4) service innovation; (5) behavioral innovation; and (6) managerial innovation. product innovation is often referred to as the novelty and meaningfulness of new products introduced to the market in a timely fashion (wang and ahmed, 2004). product innovation is critical to product success which in turn is highly related to sustainable business success, providing great opportunities for businesses in terms of growth and expansion into new areas (cooper, 2000; henard and szymanski, 2001). process innovation refers to the introduction of new production methods and new technology that can be used to improve production processes (wang and ahmed, 2004). maravelakis et al. (2006) emphasized that process innovation may result in product innovation and likewise product innovation may force process innovation, an inference that product innovation and process innovation are strongly correlated. in our study, process innovation constructs have been taken as those related to product development process issues concerning production methods and the distribution cycle. market innovation is the newness of approaches that organization adopts to enter and exploit the targeted market, i.e. innovation related to market research, advertising and promotion as well as identification of new market opportunities and entry into new markets (wang and ahmed, 2004). market innovation is central to product innovation and likewise, product innovation maintains a central focus for product newness. here, we refer to market innovation in the context of novelty of market-oriented approaches. similarly, service innovation refers to the differences and novelties that can be built into the dimensions of intangible service offerings (zolfagharian and paswan, 2008). in service innovation, activities are undertaken to deliver core services so as to attract more consumers (oke, 2007), which in turn tend to create a new revenue streams. behavioral innovation in the organization is directly related to the people and their practices. here, innovation is brought in to the social system of an organization like focusing on the innovative practices, culture, the overall internal receptivity to new ideas and innovation adapted by individuals and teams in the organization. managerial innovation practices focuses more on leadership/senior management’s role in building the organizational structure, administrative processes and enabling the human resources toward an innovative culture. in the present study, management strategy on innovation, administration or leadership innovation, focus on feasibility studies or risk-taking attitude of management, support for knowledge management, organization’s characteristics and motivation of people to innovate were taken as constructs of managerial innovation. international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 2 7 3 730 customer brand trust trust is the belief that an exchange partner is honest, reliable, and is interested in the welfare of the other party (doney and cannon 1997; morgan and hunt 1994). brand is not only a symbol but also an entity (something that has unique and distinct existence) which can be easily recognized and promise certain values (nicolino, 2004). brand is actually a reflection of promises about the product promoted by producer to the consumer about the product’s quality. hence, there needs to be a trust in the brand. in branding, trust is the willingness or the want of consumers in facing the risk associated with the notion that the purchased brand will provide a positive or favorable results (lau and lee, 1999). according to keller (2003), brand lowers the risk in using the product. consumers often interact with brands as if the brand is human, thus the similarities between the consumer selfconcept to the brand can build trust towards the brand. trust involves the willingness of a person to behave particularly because of the belief that its partner will deliver what he/she expected, and an expectation that is generally owned by someone that the word, promise or statement of other people can be trusted. it is the emerging force of customer retention, because the trust can create a relationship exchange with great value to both parties. herbiniak (in morgan and hunt, 1994) stated that relationship, which is characterized by trust, is highly valued on parties with a desire to commit or bind themselves to a particular relationship. commitment is prone to change without involving trust aspects. therefore, trust in the brand became the basis of ongoing relationship in maintaining valuable and important relationships created by the existence of the trust. trust in the brand is the customer’s trust behavior toward the shariah product. trust creates exchange relationships that are highly valued (morgan and hunt 1994). definition of trust provided by moorman, zaltman, and deshpande (1992, p. 315) and morgan and hunt (1994: 23). chaudhori & holbrook (2001) define brand trust as the willingness of the average consumer to rely on the ability of the brand to perform its stated function. brand trust was measured as a four-item index based on five-point ratings of agreement (1 = very strongly disagree, 5 = very strongly agree) with the following four statements: “i trust this brand,” “i rely on this brand,” “this is an honest brand,” and “this brand is safe.” shariah value logic service science is the study of service systems and of the co-creation of value within complex constellations of integrated resources (spohrer et al., 2007, 2008). service is the application of competences (knowledge and skills) by one entity for the benefit of another (vargo and lusch, 2004, 2006). this definition provides a fresh perspective for understanding economic phenomena, by implying that value is created collaboratively in interactive configurations of mutual exchange. it centers on the participants, processes, andresources that interact to create value in service systems. so value and value creation are at the heart of service and are critical to understanding the dynamics of service systems and to furthering service science. but value is an elusive term. marketing basics highlight the importance of understanding different consumer segments and relating to their needs (kotler and armstrong, 2006). mirroring the holistic view of islamic legislation through its prime underpinning objectives (maqasid ash-shari’ah) and seeing islam not only as a culture but as creed (‘aqidah), worship (‘ebadat), interactions (mu’amalaat), and morality (akhlaq), elbassiouny (2014) attempted to set a humble precedent aimed at presenting amacromarketing view(see p. 46) of the potential implications of islamic marketing according to the macro-level and integrated approach of the spirit and heart of islam, namely the sources and goals of islamic shari’ah. overall depiction of the transcendental values integration model discussed in el-bassiouny (2014). international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 2 7 3 7 31 the “maqasid ash-shari’ah” of preservation of self, intellect, posterity, wealth, and faith represent the soul of islamic legislation that permeate its inherent value system, and offer a broad framework for actions and deeds consistent with its morals, priorities, and ideals (el-bassiouny, 2015). based service dominant logic (vargo & lusch, 2006) and islamic religiusity (el-bassiouny, 2015), we proposed measure in the present study as shariah value logic with the following five statements, (1) create values religiusity to stakeholders; (2) use a spiritual brand character; (3) prioritization of values religiusity; (4) co-creation business based shariah values; and (5) create values religiusity system, preservation of self,intellect, posterity, wealth, and faith. proposed model and hypotheses figure 1 introduces the paper’s proposed model and its related hypotheses. 43  figu re 1. pro pose d re sea rch m ode l h1 h2/h7 h3/h6 h4 h5 systems and to furthering service science. but value is an elusive term.    marketing  basics  highlight  the  importance  of  understanding  different  consumer  segments and relating to their needs (kotler and armstrong, 2006). mirroring the holistic  view  of  islamic  legislation  through  its  prime  underpinning  objectives  (maqasid  ash‐ shari'ah) and seeing islam not only as a culture but as creed (‘aqidah), worship (‘ebadat),  interactions (mu'amalaat), and morality (akhlaq), el‐ bassiouny (2014) attempted to set a  humble precedent aimed at presenting amacro‐marketing view(see p. 46) of the potential  implications of islamic marketing according to the macro‐level and integrated approach of  the spirit and heart of  islam, namely the sources and goals of  islamic shari'ah. overall  depiction  of  the  transcendental  values  integration  model  discussed  in  el‐bassiouny  (2014).    the “maqasid ash‐shari'ah” of preservation of self, intellect, posterity, wealth, and  faith represent the soul of islamic legislation that permeate its inherent value system, and  offer a broad framework for actions and deeds consistent with its morals, priorities, and  ideals  (el‐bassiouny,  2015).  based  service  dominant  logic  (vargo  &  lusch,  2006)  and  islamic  religiusity  (el‐bassiouny,  2015),  we  proposed  measure  in  the  present  study  as  shariah  value  logic  with  the  following  five  statements,  (1)  create  values  religiusity  to  stakeholders; (2) use a spiritual brand character; (3) prioritization of values religiusity; (4)  co‐creation  business  based  shariah  values;  and  (5)  create  values  religiusity  system,  preservation of self,intellect, posterity, wealth, and faith.    proposed model and hypotheses  figure 1 introduces the paper’s proposed model and its related hypotheses.              according to the model, we proposed seven hypotheses, (1) npd innovation is positively associated with shariah value logic; (2) shariah value logic is positively associated with npd performance; (3) npd innovation is positively associated with customer brand trust; (4) customer brand trust is positively associated with npd performance; (5) shariah value logic is positively associated with customer brand trust; (6) npd innovation is positively associated with shariah value logic and customer brand trust through shariah value logic; (7) shariah value logic is positively associated with customer brand trust and npd performance through customer brand trust. 2. research methods purposive sampling is applied to this study. the questionnaires will be given to only the customers of lkms (shariah micro finance board) in pekalongan, indonesia with total 199 customer from 13 lkms (baitul maal wa tamwil, baitul tamwil, kospin jasa shariah, and kspp shariah). step analysis consist of confirmatory factor analysis, analysis exogen construct confirmatory, analysis inter endogen construct confirmatory, estimate structural full model, and examine discriminant validity. the constructs include, npd performance, npd innovation, shariah value logic, and customer brand trust. all questionnaire items were measured using a 5-point likert scale ranging from “strongly disagree” to “strong agree”. international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 2 7 3 732 table 1. construct, indicator construct, and code research construct indicator construct code npd performance increasing our company’s revenues from new customers increasing our current customers account share increasing our company’s market share increasing our company’s sales volume increasing our company’s net profits increasing our company’s cash revenues overall, our customers are more satisfied with our np/s np fits target customers better increasing our customers’ loyalty attracting more new customers due to our np/s our nps are more successful the marketplace than before our customers encourage other people to buy our nps x 1 x 2 x 3 x 4 x 5 x 6 x 7 x 8 x 9 x 10 x 11 x 12 npd innovation newness/novelty/originality/uniqueness new production methods customer focus/customer relationship management after-sales support services employees individual innovativeness administration/leadership innovation x 13 x 14 x 15 x 16 x 17 x 18 shariah valuelogic create values religiusity to stakeholders use a spiritual brand character prioritization of values religiusity co-creation business based shariah values create values religiusity system, preservation of self, intellect, posterity, wealth, and faith x 19 x 20 x 21 x 22 x 23 customer brand trust i trust this brand this is an honest brand this brand is safe we trust that this lkms keeps our best interests in mind immediate supervisors at timesmust make decisions which seem to be against the interest of the customer we had a trust-based relationship with our subcontractor x 24 x 25 x 26 x 27 x 28 x 29 3. result with regard to construct validity, as recommended by hair et al. (1998), exploratoryfactor analysis (efa) and confirmatory factor analysis (cfa) were used to assessconstructs validity. all the research items were subjected to efa. an index of kaiser’smeasure of

brand trust, but only managerial innovation and behavioral innovation are significantly. this indicates that indirectly npd innovation affect toward npd performance.there is a positive and significant effect of npd innovation toward shariah value logic. shariah values are referred to the theory islamic religiosity, developed by el-bassiouny (2015) in the concept of transcendental values integration, states that the process of developing shariah value, especially in the service of a company based on shariah involves value co-creation activities that have a positive impact on marketing activities (in this case supporting research results). vargo (2006) argues that, there is a value creation process in instilling trust in customers when marketing or selling new products resulting from innovation and product development.with regard to mediation variable, as recommended by baron and kenny (1986), in the first order shown that shariah value logic and customer brand trust mediated between npd innovation and npd performance. conclusion the conclusions of the research are the creation of shariah value logic values and the customer brand trust mediating the relationship between npd innovation and npd performance in the board of sharia micro finance, it must be corroborated by the trust of customers in the name of products that have a spiritual character. the absolute affect of npd performance is shown in the relationship between npd performance and npd dimension of customer performance. in general, the relationship between constructs is not significant, but the relationship between construct and construct construct dimension is significant, as shown in the relationship between npd innovation with product, international journal of islamic business and

to investigate whether the organizational support provided by baznas and laznas has a positive impact on the success of micro business development programs and poverty alleviation. population in this study are mustahiq who have received empowerment program from baznas and laznas with the total sample size are 89 mustahiq. data were collected using questionnaire with likert scale 1 – 5 and were analyzed using path analysis. the results of this study indicate that the organizational support provided by laznas tends to be better when compared baznas. this study also found an important fact that the mustahiq micro-business development program was able to alleviate poverty. the results of this study imply that to get a maximum result of mustahiq micro-business development, baznas must evaluate and innovate the mustahiq micro-business development program. meanwhile laznas must provide more optimum support for capital assistance and mentoring to get a maximum impact. this is the first study in comparing the micro-business development between baznas and laznas in indonesia. keywords: mustahiq empowerment, micro-business development, poverty alleviation, baznas, laznas doi:

1. introduction poverty alleviation is not only a priority for the government of indonesia, but also a serious concern by the united nations. united nations issued a sustainable development goals (sdgs) program which consists of 17 main targets. one of the 17 programs is poverty alleviation. poverty alleviation programs are made a priority because more than 700 million people live in extreme poverty (united nations, 2021). the indonesian government has also issued various programs to alleviate poverty, including rice assistance for the poor (raskin), direct cash assistance (blt) to other non-cash transfers such as labour-intensive programs. the government also encourages each company to set aside a portion of the company's profits for social programs intended for the poor in the company's operations. the government has also begun to optimize the role of zakat organizations in helping alleviate poverty. some scholar like as sadeq, (1997), ben jedidia & guerbouj, (2020) and razak, (2020) argues that zakat as the instrument of islamic wealth in poverty alleviation and redistribution. zakat is also good for social protection for the poor and the needy (bilo & machado, 2020). the government is well aware that as the largest muslim country in the world, it certainly has great potential in collecting zakat funds. according to the results of mapping conducted by the national zakat agency (baznas), the potential for zakat in indonesia reaches idr 233.8 trillion (republika, 2019), even the potential for zakat in indonesia in 2023 according to the global islamic state will reach idr 500 trillion (dompetduafa, 2021). with such a large potential, it will be very helpful in alleviating poverty in indonesia. according to the indonesian central statistics agency (bps), the poverty rate in indonesia in march 2020 reached 9.78 percent or as many as 26.42 million people (bps, 2020). the government can optimize the level of generosity of indonesians in collecting zakat funds. even though in the covid-19 pandemic conditions, the rate of zakat collection actually increased to 46 percent in 2020 when compared to 2019 (kompas, 2020; hudaifi and beik, 2021). this shows that the indonesian people have a good level of obedience in carrying out religious orders and at the same time show a high social spirit. table 1. zakah organization in indonesia (laznas) no

of zakat funds in indonesia is also carried out by the national zakat institute (laznas). laznas is a zakat organization managed independently by the community. the existence of laznas really helps the government and baznas in international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 114129 118 collecting zakat funds. laznas's contribution in collecting zakat funds in indonesia reaches 40 percent of the total national zakat revenue (insight, 2019). until 2019, there are 572 zakat management organizations that have been authorized and have obtained permits, consisting of 491 baznas and 27 laznas and 54 lazda. in 2019, the total zakat funds collected will be idr 10.2 trillion, where most of the distribution was allocated for humanitarian social programs amounting to 36.9 percent, for da'wah by 25 percent, for education 19.3 percent, for the economy 13.5 percent and for health as much as 5.2 percent (puskas-baznas, 2021). the presence of two zakat management organizations, namely baznas and laznas, is certainly a challenge for the manager, especially for laznas. they must have a superior program that can be used as a barometer for muzakki to be willing to distribute their zakat funds to their institution, without the trust of muzakki, it is impossible for laznas to continue running the organization's operations. one of the superior programs owned by baznas and laznas is the mustahiq empowerment program. the purpose of empowering mustahiq is to create economic independence for mustahiq and in turn be able to alleviate poverty (trianto, 2020). mustahiq economic empowerment programs through the management of microbusiness units by zakat organizations aims to create economic independently of mustahiq. through this program, mustahiq will get an income to buys daily needs such as food, cloth and others. mustahiq miro-business development usually use a zakah fund scheme, where the mustahik do not need to return the funds. this scheme is often referred to as productive zakah, namely zakah funds obtained by zakah organizations for the poor in the form of business capital assistance. however, there are also zakah organizations that use csr funds in implementing the mustahiq empowerment program (trianto et al., 2018). to obtain maximum results, zakah management organizations provide assistance to mustahiq in the form of business capital support, training support and accompaniment business support. the problems faced in empowering mustahiq between baznas and laznas are relatively the same, first, related to business capital assistance. business capital assistance for mustahiq is relatively small so it is difficult for mustahiq to turn its capital, so that it has an impact on the continuity of their business. second, related to business training. for mustahiq who do not have business experience, the training provided by the zakat institution is not optimal due to the frequency of training and training materials that are deemed inappropriate. the third is related to mustahiq business assistance. almost all zakah management organizations do not have a mustahiq business assistance team that is competent in providing business assistance for mustahiq. besides not having competence, the mustahiq mentoring team is also relatively small and has other jobs in zakat management organizations. these various problems will certainly have an impact on the success of the mustahiq empowerment program. this research aims to determine the level of success of the mustahiq empowerment program carried out by baznas and laznas in pekanbaru city, indonesia. although research related to mustahiq empowerment has been carried out by many previous researchers such as (trianto et al., 2020), (furqani et al., 2018), (fauziyah taufiq et al., 2018), (rahmi adilah et al., 2018), (romdhoni, 2018), (fikriyah & ridlwan, 2018), (ernawati, 2016), (azam et al., 2014), muhamat et al (2013), and (alam choudhury & harahap, 2009), but there has not been study to investigated the mustahiq micro-business development program by comparing baznas and laznas programs and this study was conducted to fill this gap. by knowing the level of success of the program of both, we can international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 114129 119 provide an important suggestion to zakah organizations on mustahiq micro-business development. this study will contribute in the development of zakah organization in indonesia by implementing the theory of organizational support for non-profit oriented organization development by (rhoades & eisenberger, 2002). rhoades & eisenberger (2002) state that the aims of organizational support is to increasing the maximum performance of employee. in the context of mustahiq empowerment program, the zakat organization support will help the mustahiq in build their micro-business well. 2. research method the respondents of this study were the mustahiq who received empowerment programs from baznas pekanbaru city and laznas in pekanbaru city, indonesia. laznas which is the object of research is dompet duafa pekanbaru and rumah zakat pekanbaru. in this study, the sample was determined based on the following conditions: (1) joined an empowerment program in 2016 – 2018, (2). get capital assistance from zakat organizations, (3). get business training, and (4). get business assistance. from the predetermined criteria, the number of samples from baznas is 45 mustahiq and from laznas is 44 mustahiq. the research data were taken using a questionnaire using a likert scale of 1 5. in this study, there are three exogenous variables, namely capital support, training support and accompaniment support. meanwhile, there are two endogenous variables, namely the variable success of mustahiq business and success to alleviate poverty. the following is a empirical model in this study: figure 1. empirical model from the empirical model built in figure 1, two structural equations or formula are generated, namely: 1. y1 = β1 x1 + β2 x2 + β3 x3 + ε…………………………………………………………………..……………(1) where : y1 = endogenous variable or success of

+ ε………………………………………………………………………………………………………….(2) where : y2 = endogenous variable or success to alleviate poverty β2 = path coefficient of exogenous variable y1 y1 = exogenous variable or success of mustahiq business variable the research data were analysed using path analysis. path analysis is a statistical technique that allows users to investigate pattern of effect within a system of variables (allen, 2017). the aims of path analysis is to provide estimates of the magnitude and significant hypothesized causal connection among sets of variables displayed through the use of path diagram (stage et al., 2004). in this study, data were analysed using lisrel 8.8 and spss 26 software. lisrel was developed to perform analysis with latent variables in structural equation modelling analysis (hayduk, 1996), but lisrel software can also be used to perform path analysis tests (hannessy, 1985). 3. result and discussion 3.1. mustahiq demographic the mustahiq empowerment program carried out by baznas and laznas in pekanbaru city has a tend different. in this study, the mustahiq who participated in the empowerment program at baznas were dominated by men, namely 27 people or 60 percent, while the female mustahiq were only 18 people or 40 percent. meanwhile, the mustahiq empowerment program carried out by laznas was dominated by women who reached 35 people or 79.55 percent, while the male mustahiq only amounted to 9 people or 20.45 percent. for more details, see table 2. these results indicate that the patterns and types of mustahiq empowerment in pekanbaru city are different, according to the policies of each zakat organization. table 2. mustahiq gender no. business model total % 1 baznas male female total 27 18 45 60,00 40,00 100 2 laznas male female total 9 35 44 20,45 79,55 100 source: authors finding, 2021 the results of this study also showed that the level of education of the mustahiqs who participated in this empowerment program also tended to be different between baznas and laznas in pekanbaru. the mustahiq empowerment program carried out by baznas is dominated by the level of lower secondary education reaching 18 people or 57.78%, while the mustahiq who have the secondary education level and above are 19 people or 42.22 percent. meanwhile, the empowerment programs carried out by laznas were mostly followed by mustahiqs who had a secondary education level and above which international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 114129 121 reached 23 people or 52.27 percent. meanwhile, 21 people or 47.73

working capital assistance, baznas and laznas also have a different pattern. baznas tends to provide business capital assistance in cash, where the mustahiq is made a bank account and the funds are transferred through a designated bank. meanwhile, laznas in providing business capital assistance is provided in cash through the purchase of required business equipment. table 4 shows the amount of business assistance provided by baznas to mustahiq in cash of idr. 2,000,000/mustahiq. meanwhile, the business capital assistance provided by laznas if converted into rupiah is idr 4,500,000/mustahiq. the results of this study indicate that the business capital assistance provided by laznas is greater than the assistance provided by baznas. table 4. capital assistance from zakah organization no.

who received assistance from baznas before the mustahiq empowerment program was implemented was rp. 412,582, while the income of the mustahiq family who received the empowerment program from laznas was rp. 290,514. on average, the income of the mustahiq family who received the empowerment program from baznas had a higher income compared to the income of the mustahiq family who received assistance from laznas. after running the empowerment program, there is an income for the mustahiq family of rp. 561,701 for mustahiq from baznas and rp. 569,957. when viewed from the income of the mustahiq family, the two zakat organizations have the same ability to increase the income of the mustahiq family, but in percentage terms the programs implemented by laznas have a higher percentage level of increased income when compared to baznas which is 96.17 percent. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 114129 122 table 5. average income of

3.2. statistics descriptive table 6 shows the minimum, maximum, mean and standard deviation values. the minimum value for baznas is 2.00 in the x2 and x3 variables, while the maximum value is 5.00 in the x1 variable with a mean of 3.53 and a standard deviation of 0.597. this result means that the mustahiq who are respondents to baznas have a tendency to provide sufficient answers. meanwhile, respondents who have affiliation with laznas tend to give better answers, namely agree. this can be seen from the mean value for each research variable where the results are close to the value 4, with the highest standard deviation is the x1 variable which is 0.939 and the smallest is the y2 variable of 0.462. table 6. minimum, maximum, mean and standard deviation, variable minimum maximum mean

the two organizations has a value above 0.6. this means that all statement items have a good level of internal consistency. meanwhile, table 8 shows the correlation between variables involved in this study. in baznas, variables that have a pathway relationship have a weak correlation, for example the relationship between x1 and y1 and the relationship between x2 and y1. meanwhile, the variable that has a positive and significant relationship is variable y1 and variable y2. meanwhile, the correlation between variables in the laznas zakat management organization has a positive and significant

obtained that the variable capital support at baznas has a negative and insignificant relationship with the variable success mustahiq business. meanwhile in the laznas organization, although the

running a micro-scale business. to support this program, zakat organizations provide assistance in the form of business capital. the results of this study indicate that the provision of venture capital by baznas does not have a significant impact on the success of the mustahiq economic empowerment program and even has a negative effect with a path coefficient of -0.04. this result contradicts with by muhamat et al (2013) where capital is a factor influencing the success of developing a micro-business conducted by mustahiq. however, boudreaux and nicolaev (2019) emphasize that capital is not the only factor that causes the success of a business, there are other factors that can cause a person's business to be successful, for example entrepreneurial motivation. meanwhile, in laznas zakat organization, capital has a positive effect, but not significant with the path coefficient of 0.07. the results of this study are in line with research conducted by muhammat et al (2013), although the effect is not significant, the capital given to mustahiq to develop their micro-business has a positive effect. this means that the venture capital provided by laznas to mustahiq is very useful for running their business. there are several reasons why the business capital assistance provided by baznas has a negative impact. first, the capital given to mustahiq is relatively smaller when compared to the capital provided by laznas. second, baznas provides business capital assistance in the form of cash so that it provides opportunities for mustahiqs to be used to buy daily necessities such as paying debts or buying food. meanwhile, laznas provides business capital assistance in the form of non-cash, thus closing opportunities for mustahiqs to use outside their micro-business needs. this result implies that the provision of capital in the international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 114129 126 form of cash is not the right thing to give to mustahiq, because it makes it possible for mustahiq to use it outside of his business needs. the results of this study also show that the training variable provided by baznas has a significant effect but has a negative effect with a path coefficient of -0.44. the results of this study are in line with (indarti, 2020) and muhammat et al (2013) where the training program for mustahiq has no impact on success in increasing mustahiq's business. this failure can be caused by several things, first the training program provided by baznas is not in accordance with the needs of the mustahiq. this is because the training provided is more general, even though the training needs for each mustahiq business are different, some require training for marketing, business operational training to customer service training. this is the same as found by (indarti, 2020), that training for entrepreneurs/mustahiq is not in accordance with the needs required by entrepreneurs. meanwhile, the training provided by laznas has a positive and significant impact. the results of this study are in line with research conducted by (rahmi adilah et al., 2018) and (mensah & benedict, 2010) where the training provided has made a positive and significant contribution to the success of the micro-business run by mustahiq. this indicates that the training provided by laznas is in accordance with the needs of the mustahiq in running their micro-business. this study also found that the mentoring program provided by baznas had a positive and significant effect on the success of the micro-business run by mustahiq with a path coefficient of 0.60. meanwhile, the mustahiq mentoring program carried out by laznas has a positive but insignificant effect with the path coefficient of 0.11. this indicates that the mustahiq mentoring program is a crucial program in empowering mustahiq through microbusiness activities. this research is in line with research conducted by fauziyah taufiq et al., (2018). meanwhile, the mustahiq empowerment program through micro-business activities carried out by baznas and laznas was able to alleviate mustahiq poverty with the magnitude of the β coefficient of 0.52 and 0.59, respectively. this indicates that the mustahiq empowerment program through micro-business activities is a program that must be maintained and developed more broadly by baznas and laznas. overall, the results of this study illustrate that in developing micro-enterprises managed by mustahiq, the variables of capital, training and business assistance have an important role in achieving success, although in its implementation, zakat institutions have different results. the results of this study are in line with several previous researchers such as muhamat et al (2013), (indarti, 2020), (rahmi adilah et al., 2018) and (mensah & benedict, 2010) and fauziyah taufiq et al., (2018). however, this study places more emphasis on evaluating the implementation of empowerment programs at governmentowned zakat institutions and community-managed zakat institutions with an organizational support theory approach. from the findings of this study, it provides the fact that the organizational support provided by the zakat institution to mustahiq is very meaningful in the success of the micro business development program run by mustahiq. the results of this study illustrate that the theory of organizational support can be implemented in non-profit oriented organizations such as zakat institutions, especially in running mustahiq empowerment programs in the context of poverty alleviation. however, the implementation of the theory has not been fully implemented, especially by baznas. this is due to several things, including experience in running empowerment programs, limited funding and limited human resources. however, theory organizational support can be implemented properly by laznas. for this reason, it is necessary to have efforts from the management of zakat managers to increase international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 114129 127 understanding related to organizational support theory so that the organizational support provided provides the results that are expected. 4. conclusion mustahiq micro-business development carried out by zakat organizations in indonesia is one of the agendas to increase mustahiq's income and welfare. the results of this study indicate that the support of zakat organizations in developing the micro-business of mustahiq between baznas and laznas has a different impact. the capital support provided by baznas has a negative effect on the development of the mustahiq business. meanwhile, the capital support provided by laznas has a positive impact even though the impact is not significant. in the baznas zakat organization, the training support provided to mustahiq in running its business does not have a positive effect, it has a negative effect on mustahiq business development. meanwhile, the training support provided by laznas has succeeded in providing a positive impact on the development of the mustahiq business. accompaniment support provided by baznas is able to have a positive impact on mustahiq's micro-business development. meanwhile the accompaniment support provided by laznas had a positive impact, although it was not yet significant. this indicates that the mustahiq mentoring program plays an important role in the mustahiq economic empowerment program. the mustahiq economic empowerment program through microbusiness activities carried out by baznas and laznas has had a positive impact in alleviating poverty of mustahiq in pekanbaru, indonesia. therefore the mustahiq economic empowerment program must be developed better so that it has a wider impact on the poor and the needy in indonesia. however, this research has limitations, which is only conducted in pekanbaru, so the results cannot be generalized for all of indonesia. the implication of research is although the mustahiq economic empowerment program through microbusiness activities is able to increase income and alleviate poverty, there is a need for better development. references alam choudhury, m., & harahap, s. s.

international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 117-129 1. introduction as a large country that has rich tourism resources, in the form of natural beauty, rich cultural diversity, and potential of special interest tourism, indonesia is well worthy of being the main tourist destination in the world. indonesia's tourism industry, if developed professionally, will be able to compete better with other countries, especially in the competition over tourist visits and spending as non-oil and as foreign exchange sources. besides the tourism natural beauty, cultural wealth and diversity and potential of special interest tourism, indonesia also has great opportunities in developing religious tourism given its religious population and cultural diversity. one of the tourism potentials that is developing progressively well at this time is the religious tourism and pilgrimage. in java, the graves of religious scholars have long been the object of tourist visits. the pilgrimage tours have great economic impacts and religious development that must not be ignored. the development of religious tourism continues to accelerate, supported by religious passion in indonesia which has an impact on tourists' satisfaction on the sharia services provided. whereas, religious tourism certainly has different markets such as services, islamic values and destination image many previous studies have been conducted on the quality of sharia services, islamic values and destination image such as juniawan who concluded that assurance, reliability, tangible, and empathy has a significant effect on the customers’ satisfaction, but the variables of compliance and responsiveness have no influence on it (juniawan, 2014: 56). meanwhile, according to astuti, in the model, it is known that only reliability and tangibility dimensions that are significant, while others are not (astuti, 2009: 57). according to the analysis of khan et al., it was found that destination image has a positive relationship with tourists’ satisfaction, and service quality has a positive relationship with satisfaction of islamic tourism destinations in malaysia (khan, haque, & rahman, 2013: 1631). qomariyah, in the her research concluded that the service quality did not affect satisfaction, while the institutional image and islamic value had a significant effect on satisfaction . service quality, institutional image and islamic values have no influence on loyalty, while satisfaction has a significant effect on loyalty (qomariyah, 2012a: 177). the findings in rahman's research show that the islamic attributes have a positive relationship on the islamic tourists’ satisfaction and destination loyalty (rahman, 2014: 63). the destinations have a positive effect on satisfaction of islamic tourists but are negative with destination loyalty. from the results of juniawan and astuti's research, it is shown that the reliability and tangibility have a significant effect on the customers’ satisfaction. the compliance also has no effect on satisfaction. then, the similarities between khan, qomariyah and rahman are islamic values and destination image have a significant effect on the tourists’ satisfaction, and satisfaction have a significant effect on loyalty. besides the different results of the research above, the researcher has never found a study that uses carter dimension other than on sharia banks. therefore, to be more varied, further research is needed on the carter dimension in the religious tourism sites as the research object in order to sharpen and deepen the correlation between the influence of sharia service quality on the visitors’ satisfaction and loyalty (kasdi, farida, & cahyadi, 2019: 469–470). referring to the descriptions of the research background this study aims to empirically examine the effects of sharia service quality on the visitors’ satisfaction in the great mosque of demak (masjid agung demak/mad), to empirically examine the influence of islamic values on mad visitors’ satisfaction, to empirically examine the influence of destination image on mad visitors’ satisfaction, to empirically examine the influence of sharia service quality on mad international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 117-129 119 tourism loyalty, to empirically examine the influence of islamic values on mad tourism loyalty, to empirically examine the influence of destination image on mad tourism loyalty, to empirically examine the effect of visitors’ satisfaction on mad tourism loyalty, to empirically examine the intervening influence of visitors’ satisfaction between the quality of sharia services and loyalty of mad tourists’ visitors, to empirically examine the intervening influence of visitors’ satisfaction between islamic values and loyalty of mad tourists’ visitors, as well as to empirically examine the intervening influence of visitors’ satisfaction between destination image and loyalty of mad tourists’ visitors. 2. research method this this was a field research using a quantitative approach. the data used were primary and secondary, taken using a survey through the distribution of questionnaire. there were three independent variables in this research: (x1) sharia service quality, (x2) islamic values, and (x3) destination image. the dependent variable of this research was (y1) loyalty, and the intervening variable (y2) was the visitors’ satisfaction. the research population was all the visitors of great mosque of demak in the last one year, with the sample consisting of 167 respondents, selected using random sampling. the hypothesis testing was done using sem-pls. sem-pls was used for more explorative studies. in other words, the pls approach was more suitable to be used for predictive goals (sholihin & ratmono, 2013: 8). the pls approach was used as a measurement tool with the consideration that the measurement scale for the dependent variable and the independent variable used in the study was nominal and ordinal (non-parametric). unlike the sem used in the research that used interval scale, pls was a measuring tool that could be used in the research using ordinal or nominal measurement scale. another consideration in using pls as a measurement tool was that the indicators that made up the constructs in this study were reflexive. the reflexive model assumed that the latent variable influenced the indicators whose direction of the causality relationship was from the construct toward indicator or manifest (sholihin & ratmono, 2013: 9). 3. results and discussions 3.1. theoretical framework quality, according to kotler and keller, is the entire features and characteristics of a product or service that depends on its ability to satisfy expressed or implied people’s needs. meanwhile, service is any action or activity that can be offered by a party to another, which is basically intangible and does not result in any ownership (kotler & keller, 2009: 143). in providing quality services as an effort to achieve customers’ satisfaction, the tourism industry can be guided by the dimensions of service quality. there are five important aspects in analyzing or measuring the quality of services, namely: reliability; responsiveness; empathy assurance; and tangibles (tjiptono, 2008: 175). these five dimensions, if applied in sharia institutions, tend to assess normative matters. addition of dimensions in servqual is intended to make it more in line with the industry and the quality of its services that will be measured. this is very important, because religious tourism has specific characteristics compared to general one; it applies sharia principles in carrying out its activities. one of the dimensions is compliance, which means measuring the company's ability to conform to islamic law and the principles of sharia economics (astuti, 2009: 50). othman and owen conceptually and operationally defined sharia service quality, where each variable is displayed in several dimensions: compliance, assurance, reliability, tangibles, 120 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 117-129 empathy, and responsiveness. if a quality service has been fulfilled for a tourist, it will have a positive impact on his loyalty. every tourist always has high expectations for of what he will visit (juniawan, 2014: 52). these expectations represent the expectations on the services to be provided by service providers. industrial services with islamic nuances certainly have their own characteristics when compared to the general one, so the dimension of compliance becomes very important in maintaining the tourist loyalty. utama research, showed that the service quality has a significant direct effect on the loyalty of the listeners of bali cassanova radio channel(ermayanti, suprapti, & sukaatmadja, 2015: 1496). the results of rahman's research also showed that the service quality has a significant relationship with the loyalty (rahman, 2014: 71). light, keller & calhoun have limited the value as general ideas of the people, who talk about what is good or bad, and what is expected or not. the value influences someone in certain situations. adhered values tend to affect their entire ways of life. the building of islamic economics is based on five universal values, namely: tauhid (faith), ‘adl (justice), nubuwwah (prophethood), government, and ma'ad (results) (hakim, 2012: 68). these five values form the basis of inspiration for compiling sharia economic propositions and theories. from these universal values, three derivative principles are built (multitype ownership, freedom to act, and social justice) which become the characteristics and forerunners of the sharia economic system. above all values and principles, morality concept is built. the moralilty occupies the top position, because it is the objective of islam and da'wah of the prophets. it is this morality that guides economic and business actors in carrying out their activities (karim, 2012: 34). moral values teach humans to behave and act properly based on the norms and right manners (adab), so that they will lead to a peaceful, harmonious and balanced life. thus, it is clear that the values of islamic teachings are the values that will be able to bring people to happiness, prosperity, and safety both in life in the world and in the afterlife. islamic values that are internalized in an industry or business certainly bring its own nuances. additional applications in the form of islamic values provided will be a priority for the tourists in choosing a tourism destination. if they feel that they it is in accordance with what they have believed in, it will allow islamic values to have an impact on the visitors’ loyalty. lawson and baud bovy defined the destination image as an expression of individual knowledge, impression, prejudice, imagination and emotional and thoughts in a particular place (rajesh, 2013: 68). crompton defined the destination image as the sum of one's beliefs, ideas and impressions of a destination. he also stated that destination image is people's beliefs, ideas or impressions about a place (mohamad & ali, 2013: 287). given the tourist destinations, it is possible to define the image as facts of form, slogan images, or writings that make an impression within people's mind and for the tourism promotion and marketing, image is an important factor that influence the demand. the tourists will conduct a post-purchase evaluation in the form of comparing the destination performance based on the expectations they want. the results of post-purchase evaluation are satisfaction or dissatisfaction. satisfaction with the destination image will have an impact on tourists’ loyalty so that the better the destination image, the higher the tourists’ loyalty level. 3.2. general descriptions of respondents the respondents in this study consist of 66.5% male and 33.5% female. whereas according to the age, they are mostly at 21-30 years old as many as 55.1%, 24% visitors aged 31-40, and 4,2% visitors are 41-50 years old, and only 1,8% are above 50. viewed from international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 117-129 121 educational level, the visitors who have senior high school diploma is as much as 52.7%, higher education level (universities/ colleges/ academies) as much as 28%, and those having lower level education is only 19 , 2%. according to the occupations, the visitors’ jobs are quite varied. those who still have status as the college students is as much as 21.6%, then the visitors work as the entrepreneurs is 19.2%, working as private / honorary teachers is 18.6%, thos working as the private is 16.8%, those who are still high school students is 13.2%, civil servants (pns) as much as 4.2%, housewives as much as 2.4%, working as the farmers as is 3%, and the visitors who work as the lecturers is 2,1%. 3.3. descriptive-statistics variable table 1. descriptive

source: primary data 2019. based on sem-pls testing procedure, the evaluation of convergent construct validity uses indicators such as loading factor and average variance extracted (ave), composite reliability, and cronbach alpha. the results of the outer model using the pls 3.0 warp program in the table above show good significance, so that the data can be used in the research. 122

an early indication of the support for the mediation hypothesis, because the mediation relationships require a significant correlation between independent, mediating and dependent variables (sholihin and ratmono, 2013: 73). conversely, the moderation model requires that the moderating variable should not correlate significantly with the independent and dependent variables. 3.6. direct effect

has no effect on the loyalty because the significance value is above 0.05, the islamic values affect loyalty, and destination image affects the loyalty, with the significance of p <0.01. 3.7. indirect

criteria has been met. that is, the apc and ars values are statistically significant and vif is lower than 5 (sholihin & ratmono, 2013: 61). 3.9. influence of sharia quality service on the loyalty 124 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 117-129 the results of the testing using pls 3.0 warp software indicate that the quality of sharia services has a positive but not significant effect on the visitors’ loyalty of the great mosque of demak. this means that the quality of carter sharia services implemented by the great mosque of demak tourism management has not been able to form the loyalty well. zain viewed the customers’ loyalty as a function of past experience (setyawati, 2009: 12). the first time they come to a destination, they will observe carefully from the characteristics of management services, services offered, to the physical characteristics of a destination that surely get attention from them. the evaluation process done by the customers finally forms a destination image. if the results of the evaluation provide a positive image, then they will probably visit it next time. the test results show that the direct effect coefficient of qss on lo (path c) in the model (1) is 0.03, and the value of p = 0.39). this shows that (h1) is rejected, that there is no influence between the sharia services quality on the loyalty. this study accepts the results of the research conducted by salma and ratnasari, kresnamurti and sinambela, aryani and rosinta, ermayanti, et al., as well as qomariah, but rejects fasochah and jatmiko. 3.10. influence of islamic values on the loyalty the test results using pls 3.0 warp software show that the islamic values have a direct positive and significant effect on the loyalty of visitors of the great mosque of demak. this means that the stronger the islamic values instilled by the great mosque of demak tourism management, the higher the loyalty. the islamic economic building, according to adiwarman karimm is based on five universal values, namely: tauhid (faith), ‘adl (justice), nubuwwah (prophethood), khilafah (government), and ma'ad (results). these five values form the basis of inspiration for compiling islamic economic propositions and theories. from these universal values, three derivative principles are built (multitype ownership, freedom to act, and social justice) which become the characteristics and forerunners of the islamic economic system. above all values and principles, the morality concept is built. morality (akhlak) occupies the top position, because this is the goal of islam teachings of the prophets. it is the morality that guides the economic and business actors in carrying out their activities (karim, 2012: 34). the test results show that the iv direct effect coefficient on lo (path c) in the model (1) is 0.34 and significant (<0.01). this shows that h2 is accepted, that there is an influence of islamic values on the loyalty. the results of this study reject qomariah’s research (qomariyah, 2012b). 3.11. influence of destination image on the loyalty the test results using pls 3.0 warp software show that the destination image has a positive and significant effect directly on the loyalty of the visitors of the great mosque of demak. this means that the better the image of the great mosque of demak, the higher the loyalty of the visitors. the destination image, according to lawson and baud bovy, is the expressions of individual knowledge, impression, prejudice, imagination and emotional and thoughts on certain places or sites (rajesh, 2013: 68). the test results show that the di direct effect coefficient on lo (path c) in the model (1) is 0.38 and significant (<0.01). this shows that h3 is accepted, that there is an influence of the destination image on the the loyalty. this study accepts the results of the research conducted by putri, et al., as well as maryam and novasari, but rejects qomariah, as well as lamidi and rahadhini. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 117-129 125 3.12. influence of sharia service quality on the visitors’ staisfaction the test results using warp software pls 3.0 indicate that service quality does not affect the visitors’ satisfaction of the great mosque of demak. this means that the service quality with the carter dimensions of the great mosque of demak has not been able to provide what the visitors expected. the test results show that the sea indirect effect coefficient on vs (path a) in model (2) is 0.16 and p = 0.1. this shows that h4 is rejected, that there is no influence of the sharia service quality on the visitors' satisfaction. this finding supports qomariah’s research but is different from khan, et al., kresnamurti and sinambela, juniawan, aryani and rosinta, fasochah and harnoto, salma and ratnasari, ermayanti, et al., as well as jatmiko. 3.13. influence of islamic values on the visitors’ satisfaction the test results using pls 3.0 warp software show that islamic values have no effect on satisfaction of the visitors of the great mosque of demak. this means that the islamic values of the great mosque of demak tourism management cannot form the visitors’ satisfaction. one of the tools of islamic business institutions to deal with strong competition is by developing various high-quality and more islamic products and services to be offered to the customers. this is the reason for othman and owen to conclude that there is a need for the islamic business institutions to use various islamic service quality programs. othman and owen defined the conceptual and operational aspects of islamic service quality on each variable are displayed in some dimensions: sharia compliance, assurance, reliabilit, tangible, empathy, and responsivness (juniawan, 2014: 53). the test results show that the iv indirect effect coefficient on vs (path a) in the model (2) is 0.12 and the value of p = 0.07. this shows that h5 is rejected that there is no influence between islamic values on the visitors’ satisfaction. the results of this study reject qomariah’s research. 3.14. influence of destination image on the visitors’ satisfaction the test results using warp pl 3.0 software show that the destination image has a direct positive and significant effect on the visitors’ satisfaction of the great mosque of demak. this means that the better the image of the great mosque of demak, the higher satisfaction. the test results show that the di indirect effect coefficient on vs (path a) in model (2) is 0.64 and significant at p<0.01. andreassen & lindestad argued that the natures of intangibility, inseparability, heterogeneity, and perishability of a tourism place cause the tourists to deal with a lack of attributes to evaluate whether it is good or not (raharso, 2008). however, because the decisions must be made, they use the image of a tourist destination as a medium for evaluating. of course, the image that lies within their mind is not always aligned with the real conditions, then leblanc and nguyen stated that the destination image has the potential to influence the competitiveness of a tourism site (raharso, 2008). this shows that h6 is accepted that there is an influence between the destination image and visitors’ satisfaction. this study accepts the results of the research conducted by khan, et al., lamidi and rahadhini, qomariah, maryam and novasari, as well as putri et al, but rejects the research of chen and tsai. 3.15. influence of visitor’ satisfaction on the loyalty the test results using warp pls 3.0 show that visitors’ satisfaction has a positive and significant effect on the loyalty toward the great mosque of demak tourism edestination. this 126 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 117-129 means that the more satisfied the visitors of the great mosque of demak, the higher the loyalty. as a product, they may come back (revisit) or recommend their friends and family as a potential travel destination. in this context, the study of consumers’ loyalty can be applied to the tourism field, where according to dimanche and havitz, tourism is a product or service that is served to the tourists in the middle of increasingly tight destination marketing competition (utama, 2014: 7). the test results show that the vs indirect effect coefficient on lo (path b) in model (2) is 0.24 and the value of p <0.01. this shows that h7 is accepted that there is an influence of the destination image on the visitors’ satisfaction. this study accepts the results of the research conducted by aryani and rosinta, kresnamurti and sinambela, fasochah and harnoto, salma and ratnasari, ermayanti, et al., lamidi and rahadhini, qomariah, jatmiko, maryam and novasari, as well as putri, et al. 3.16. influence of sharia service quality on the loyalty with the visitors’ satisfaction as the intervening variable based on the results of comparison of the direct effect and indirect effect test, it can be seen that the indirect effect test results are not significant. therefore, it is stated that visitors’ satisfaction does not become a mediator between the syaria service quality and the loyalty. this means that the sharia service quality provided by the great mosque of demak tourism management has not been able to meet the visitors’ expectations. the tourists will conduct a post-purchase evaluation by comparing the performance of the sharia service quality based on the expectations they want. the results of post-purchase evaluation are satisfaction or dissatisfaction. satisfaction on the sharia service quality will have an impact on their loyalty, so that the better the sharia service quality provided, the higher their loyalty. the test results show that the qss direct effect coefficient on lo (c) in the model (1) is 0.03 and not significant (p = 0.39). the estimation model (2) shows the kls indirect effect coefficient of lo (c ″) drops to 0.01 and is not significant (p = 0.47), while the influence of sea on vs (path a) is 0.16 and not significant (p = 0.10), the influence of vs on lo (path b) is 0.24 and is significant (p <0.01). this shows that h8 is rejected, that is the visitors’ satisfaction does not mediate the effect of the sharia service quality on the loyalty. the results of this study reject the research of salma and ratnasari, as well as ermayanti, et al. 3.17. influence of islamic values on the loyalty with the visitors’ satisfaction as the intervening variable based on the results of the comparison of the direct effect and indirect effect test, it can be seen that the indirect test results are significant but the β value increases from 0.34 to 0.35. this shows that the requirements to be mediated are not fulfilled, thus it is stated that the visitors’ satisfaction does not become a mediator between the islamic values and loyalty. the tourists will conduct a post-purchase evaluation by comparing the performance of islamic values based on the expectations they want. the results of post-purchase evaluation are satisfaction or dissatisfaction. satisfaction on the islamic values will have an impact on their loyalty, so that the better the islamic values implemented, the more loyal will be the tourists. the test results show that the iv direct effect coefficient on lo (c) in the model (1) is 0.34 and is significant (p <0.01). the estimation model (2) shows that the iv indirect effect coefficient on lo (c ″) increases to 0.35 and remains significant (p <0.01) while the effect of iv on vs (path a) is 0.12 and not significant (p = 0.07), while the influence of vs on lo (path b) is 0.24 and is international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 117-129 127 significant (p <0.01). this shows that h9 is rejected, that is the visitors’ satisfaction does not mediate the influence of islamic values on the loyalty. the results of this study accept qomariah’s research. 3.18. influence of destination image on the loyalty with the visitors’ satisfaction as the intervening variable based on the results of the comparison of the direct effect and indirect effect test, it can be seen that the indirect effect test results have decreased. then, it can be stated that the visitors’ satisfaction acts as the mediator between the destination image and loyalty. this means that the better the tourism destination image of the great mosque of demak, the higher the loyalty, but it must be accompanied by high visitor satisfaction (kasdi, 2017: 18–19). the tourists will conduct a the post-purchase evaluation in the form of comparing the destination performance based on the expectations they want to meet. the results of the post-purchase evaluation are satisfaction or dissatisfaction. satisfaction on the destination image will have an impact on the tourists’ loyalty, so that the better the destination image, the more loyal the tourists. the test results show that the di direct effect coefficient on lo (c) in the model (1) is 0.38 and is significant (p <0.01). the estimation model (2) shows that the di indirect effect coefficient of lo (c ″) drops to 0.26 and remains significant (p <0.01), while the influence of di on vs (path a) is 0.64 and significant (p < 0.01), and the influence of vs on lo (path b) is 0.24 and is significant (p <0.01). this shows that h4 is accepted, that the visitors’ satisfaction mediates the influence between the destination image and loyalty. this study accepts the results of lamidi and rahadhini's research, as well as maryam and novasari. 4. conclusion based on the descriptions that have been disclosed in the discussion, some following conclusions are drawn; first, the sharia service quality has no effect on the loyalty to the visitors of the great mosque of demak, shown by the coefficient β = 0.03 and

abstract the research aims to know the variables that affect the assets of pension funds by financial institutions (dplk, pension funds by financial institution) muamalat, which is the performance of bank muamalat as internal factors that described in the variable profit of bank muamalat and third-party funds. the external factors are bank indonesia sharia certificates (sbis, sertifikat bank indonesia syariah) as an indicator of the placement of islamic funds, and profit of dplk muamalat as a religious factor.the method used in this research is done by multiple correlation regression analysis with monthly data starting from april 2008 (since the existence of sbis) until october 2017. moreover, analysis method of hahslm theory is added which is an analysis that approached according to islamic thinking model to provide a benchmark that corresponds to the religious value.the final result of this study emphasizes that all factors, which consist of the internal factors, external factors and religious factors, affect the assets of dplk muamalat. it is interesting to know that the profit of bank muamalat has a negative correlation. that is certainly not in accordance with the existing theory that performance or credibility of the main business (bank muamalat) has a big influence on the performance of dplk muamalat. it is expected that the results of the research is useful for every party, from the regulator party like the financial services authority (ojk, otoritas jasa keuangan), the industrial parties (the other dplk), the company, and the participants of the pension funds by financial institutions. determinant of islamic pension fund in indonesia 1. roikhan mochamad aziz1, 2. acep r. jayaprawira2, 3. sulistyowati3 1. universitas islam negeri syarif hidayatullah

economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 51-60 1. introduction the understanding of an islamic economic system always refers to a thorough islamic concept or kafah. this islamic approach to the kafah contains the meaning of the exposure of the faith, islam, and ihsan. three things of this discourse are strengthened by the pillars of islam are: 1) syahadat, 2) prayers, 3) zakat, 4) fasting and 5) hajj. the outcome of the pillars in islam is embodied in three basic theories of islamic economics, consisting of 1) theory of tawheed, 2) theory of worship, 3) theory maslahah. implementation of the main pillar of the economy is in line with the development of existing banking in indonesia (aziz, 2017). the grand building theory of the theoretical building of islam and economics is the tim or tauhid-ibadah-maslahah theory, derived from the quran, thus raises the main concept of economic and financial structure division. qs. haji [22]: 78 “so establish prayer and give zakah and hold fast to allah. he is your protector, and excellent is the protector, and excellent is the helper”. the development of islamic economics has been based on linear thinking with a secular approach, separating scholarship with religion so that automatically the meaning of worship is uprooted by itself. the meaning of worship is a natural process in every activity of human life including the economy. instructions concerning worship was given by allah swt and came from kauliyah verse, namely al-qur’an and as-sunnah, and verse kauniyah, namely the universe. banking aims to become an intermediary system and to provide services. the main function of the bank is to collect public funds in the form of savings, demand deposits and deposit products, then channel funds in the form of credit or financing. another function is to provide services related to financial transactions, such as interbank transfers, bank notes, or other financial transactions. bank, as a financial institution engaged in the field of service, must be able to provide the best service, either in the service officer or transaction service type services that can be provided by the bank. m. akram khan, in his book “an introduction to islamic economics” formulates the definition of islamic economics as an islamic economics which aims to conduct a study of the happiness of human life (human falah), which is achieved by organizing natural resources on the basis of mutual cooperation and participation. therefore, akram khan wants to provide normative content in the goals of economic activity, namely the happiness or the success of human life that is not only worldly, but also ukhrawi. islamic banking has a noble function in the economy of indonesia because it is the end of the code of ethics in business and develop the national economy on the basis of noble morals, not allowed to receive funding (savings funds) from illegitimate sources because sharia banking views the property owned by humans is deposit/amanah allah swt, so the way to acquire, manage, and use it must be according to islamic teachings. one form of fund savings, which the way of obtaining and managing it is very beneficial for people, is by managing pension funds. by managing pension funds, people who are no longer productive will still earn income as determined. in the law of the republic of indonesia number 13 of 2003 on employment article 167 paragraph 1, that entrepreneurs may terminate employment of workers/laborers due to entering retirement age, and if employers have included workers in pension programs whose contributions are fully paid by employers then workers / laborers are not entitled to severance pay and so on. this law means that this pension program is very beneficial for entrepreneurs because it does not need to pay severance pay at once but can be paid in installments per month so as not to burden the cash flow of entrepreneurs. according to law no.11 / 1992 it is permitted to establish a pension fund, a legal entity 53international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 51-60 that manages and operates a program that promises a pension benefit called the pension fund by financial institution (dplk). bank muamalat as the first sharia bank to run its business activities based on sharia principles, also formed a subsidiary named pension funds by financial institution (dplk) muamalat. this dplk service is not limited to internal employees, but to all levels of society that meet the requirements, both from private agencies and government employees. the research aims to know the variables that affect the assets of pension funds by financial institutions (dplk, pension funds by financial institution) muamalat, which is the performance of bank muamalat as internal factors that described in the variable profit of bank muamalat and third-party funds. 2. literature review to find out how islamic sharia devices affect the formation of an economic system in arab society during the time of the prophet muhammad, we must conduct a serious study of the qur’an, because the qur’an was made as a source of reference in educating and managing society at that time. the qur’an is the word of allah revealed to the holy prophet because it comes from the allknowing god, the qur’an is a perfect and comprehensive book which includes an

that promises pension benefits. this is different from the pension of government employees (pns) which is regulated through law no. 11 of 1969, for employees who work for the government, which is not the object of this study. broadly and in terms of organizational institutions, pension funds in accordance with law no. 11 of 1992 can be grouped into 2 types, namely (1) employer pension fund (dppk, dana pensiun pemberi kerja) and (2) pension fund by financial institutions (dplk, dana pensiun lembaga keuangan). the employer pension fund (dppk) is a pension fund established by a person or entity employing the employee, as the founder, to provide a definite benefit pension plan or a defined contribution pension program (ppip, program pensiun iuran pasti), for the benefit of some or all of its employees as a participant, and which creates liability to the employer. in addition, there is a profit based pension funds (dpbk, dana pensiun berdasarkan keuntungan), which is the employer pension fund (dppk) that organizes a defined contribution pension program (ppip), with a contribution only from the employer based on the formula attributed to the employer’s profits. while the pension fund by financial institution (dplk) is a pension fund established by a bank or a life insurance company to provide a defined contribution pension program (ppip) for an individual, either an employee or an independent worker separate from the employer’s pension fund or for a bank employee or insurance company the soul in question. type of pension can be grouped into four kinds as follows: (1) normal pension: ie pension benefits for participants, which begin to be paid at the time the participant retires after reaching normal or after retirement pension. (2) accelerated retirement: ie pension benefits for participants paid when the participant retires at a certain age before the normal retirement age. (3) disability pension: ie the pension benefit for the participant, paid when the participant becomes disabled. (4) retirement is postponed: the right to a pension benefit for the participant who stops working 55international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 51-60 before reaching the normal retirement age, pending payment until the retirement participant in accordance with the pension plan. the management or management of the pension fund is carried out by the organ of pension fund consisting of the board and the supervisory board of the pension fund appointed by the founder as the employer. the management and board of the pension fund perform the management functions as intended by koontz (1980), namely the planning, administering and supervising of all management activities of the pension fund. the activity is intended to achieve the purpose of organizing the pension fund, which is to connect the livelihood of prosperous pensioners through the payment of pension benefits. the management of the pension fund shall announce the establishment of a pension fund by placing the decree of the minister of finance of the republic of indonesia on the ratification of the pension fund regulations in the state gazette of the republic of indonesia. 2.2 theory the rationale of the h or huda and hope approach is that islam certainly has a genuine standard of methodology that is different from the current existing approach. economic analysis by scientific researchers in formal environments such as campus or research institutes as well as nonformal periodicals such as periodicals of majority magazines using analytical tools. the tool is used to sharpen the analysis carried out in order to pursue the objectives of the formulated analysis. but with the increasing complexity of economic and life problems, it is necessary to inculcate the meaning of worship in the process of analytical tools to make the purpose of economic analysis provides double benefits of the world and the hereafter. for now, the concept of the analytical tools gained appreciation from different points of view. some start from the philosophy of tawheed, some depart from the perspective of maslahah, and some are looking from the meaning of worship. this research method is using the last point of view is the meaning of worship. the definition of h theory of hahslm according to roikhan (2015) is: (1) narrow theory h is defined as a three dominant archetypal theory with a particular context in the five dimensions of the invariant order. (2) widely for the most general use theory h can be interpreted as the basic conceptual theory of creation patterns with a particular relationship. h is derived from the hahslm formula, the hebrew letter quran, also the abbreviation of huda or life. while the meaning of h theory, among others: (1) a whole set/comprehensive system/ integrated section will consist of 3 main elements namely primary (creator/intermediary), secondary (creation/receiver), tertiary (worship/transmitter) which can be positively or negatively charged. (2) the three elements will satisfy the statement that the secondary under the primary will perform tertiary. (man created god for worship). knowing the philosophy of theory h is necessary to deepening ontology which is always associated with islam both literally and maknawi. furthermore, the development of epistemology in islamic institutions is that kaffah present new terminology into a more comprehensive approach. in general, the philosophy of h theory can be sequenced that the background of this theory is the value of islam with a comprehensive concept through a balanced way by ignoring the meaning of worship in life. the difference in approaching between the existing formula and the scriptural formula is the weighting factor. in the conventional approach, the category of outcomes will be emphasized in tangible form or visible physical value, whereas in the religious approach it will emphasize intangibles or more physical perspectives that include religiosity or worship. the sideline will look 56 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 51-60 like the same formula, but when implementing the interpretation, the results of deviation occur. secular scholarship will underlie the data segment of implementation or empirical while islamic scholarship will always include not only empirical but also the amount of religiosity or intangible value. 3. methods the type of research that will be used in this research is descriptive analysis. descriptive analysis aims to provide an overview of the phenomena studied in terms of both quantitative and complete qualitative details and explanations. techniques that will be used are interview, secondary data from bank muamalat and dplk muamalat financial statements, and observation. the data used are time series data in the last 10 years in breakdown to monthly data, about the profit data of bank muamalat; total data of third-party funds of bank muamalat; dplk profit data, outstanding fund data in sbis; as well as data dplk assets or often referred to as nav (net asset

such as the following table: table 3. hahslm table h a h s l m profit constant error internal external religiosity source: proceed, 2017 explanation of table above are: dplk muamalat is analogized as a guidance (h), in finding the path (a) is straight (h) is to run its business strategy in growing assets, influenced by human factors (s) in this case is an internal factor of performance of bank muamalat, then the will of allah (l) which is analogized as an external factor of sbis funds, and how to apply as worship (m) in this case is a religious factor in the form of profit from dplk muamalat. 4.1 explanation if bmi profit decreases by 1%, then dplk assets will increase by 0.271933%. in this study, the direction of the result of the equation in the model is not in accordance with the hypothesis. bank muamalat indonesia as the founder of dplk bank muamalat turns out in profitability performance of bank muamalat indonesia. and this situation does not automatically improve the performance of dplk muamalat. on the contrary, when bmi profit decreases, dplk assets muamalat keep 58 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 51-60 growing. in accordance with the principle of the pension fund, the wealth of the pension fund separated from the parent company, it turns out that this is already understood by the community. dplk customers still grow although bank muamalat has decreasing in its profit. the performance of bank muamalat is not directly proportional (inherent) with the performance of dplk muamalat. the results of this research showed the differentiation with the theory that the improvement of the parent company’s performance is in line with the improvement of the performance of subsidiaries. for the third party funds, if this variable increased by 1%, then dplk’s assets increased by 0.021046%. the increase of third-party funds of bank muamalat means that the level of public confidence in bank muamalat is increasing with the increase of trust to muamalat bank. this also gives impact on the level of public trust to dplk muamalat, because of the muamalat increase. for sbis variable, if this variable decreases by 1%, then dplk assets will increase by 0.017882%. sbis is a short-term, safe and guaranteed asset by the government. this instrument is often used by investors for hedging, because of its security. the sbis value, in the position of high value indicates that the condition of the capital market is low, and vice versa. as a retirement institution, dplk muamalat will feel the macro economic impact which is reflected in the downturn of the performance of the capital market. sbis is an indicator in a macroeconomic condition. for dplk’s variable, if this profit rises 1%, then dplk assets will increase by 9.201223%. profit dplk muamalat, in this study, is the main factor or the role variable that has the greatest influence to the amount of assets dplk muamalat. with high profitability performance from an institution, it can have a positive impact on the condition of the company, including assets in it. from the analysis, it can be concluded that third-party fund (dpk, dana pihak ketiga), bank indonesia sharia certificates (sbis) and profit dplk have influence on performance to dplk muamalat. meanwhile, the profit of bank muamalat indonesia has no influence on the performance of dplk muamalat. 5. conclusion of the four variables that we tested, the internal factors of the parent business or the founder affect the dplk assets, namely the bmi profit and third-party funds bmi, but for the profit bmi, the influence is negative. this is certainly not in accordance with the theory that if the parent business profit increased, then the performance of its subsidiary, in this case dplk muamalat, also increased. the decline in bank muamalat’s profit, which turned out to be negatively correlated with dplk’s assets, is an abnormal condition, due to the policy made by the new management of bank muamalat in the form of reserves that have implications for the decline in profit of bank muamalat. although this policy has only been made in the last two years, it has impacted on the correlation regression result for nine years of data. while the external factor, which is the amount of funds in bank indonesia sharia certificates (sbis), has a negative effect on dplk assets, meaning that if the funds in sbis increases then dplk assets decreases. it is logical because if sbsi funds are large, it means allocation for other investments (e.g. dplk) to be down. religious factor in profit dplk also have a positive effect. this is quite certain, because dplk muamalat is dplk which all of the operational activities are managed by sharia (religious factor). from the results of this multiple regression test, globally (f test) can be said that the independent variable has significant effect on dplk assets. and from the test of completeness model (test of goodness of fit), that ability of all independent variable (profit bmi, dpk bmi, profit dplk and sbis) is 97,32%, while the rest of 2.68% explained by other factors not included in model. thus, this model is feasible to be used for policy-making tools. for example, if the management 59international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 51-60 wants to increase dplk’s assets, it should strive to increase dplk’s profit and increase the amount of third-party fund (bmk) of bmi. references alam choudhury, m., shahadat hossain, m., & solaiman, m.

(2020) showed that around 1.4 billion people in the world lived on less than usd 1 per day. meanwhile, syed and genç (2019) showed that the global muslim population had reached 20% or around 7 billion people, according to the international congress, which discussed islamic economics, finance, and ethics. the study also stated that 600 million people worldwide lived in extreme poverty, including hunger, inaccessible health care, and housing. of this number, 50% were in muslim countries, and on estimation, every one in five of this percentage was muslim. haneef et al. (2014) revealed that poverty was the main problem in countries with muslim populations, while rana et al. (2020) discovered poverty to be relatively higher than in non-muslim countries. this was reinforced by previous research by mohsin (2015), who stated that statistical data in 2009 depicted most of the population living in poverty in muslim countries. in a recent article, abdel mohsin (2020) presented the latest data on widespread poverty in muslim countries obtained from the world bank and the cia, as presented below. table 1. a table showing the poverty conditions in muslim countries from 2015 to 2017 list of countries total population 2017 (millions) percentage of muslim population 2017 (%) percentage of people with living below the national poverty line 2015-2017 (%) indonesia 264.9 87.2 28.1 nigeria 214.0 53.5 46.7 pakistan 207.7 96.5 24.3 bangladesh 170.0 90.4 24.3 egypt 97.5 94.0 27.8 iran 83.0 99.4 n/a turkey 82.3 99.8 13.5 sudan 45.5 97.0 46.5 iraq 40.2 95.7 23.0 marocco 38.3 99.0 15.0 afghanistan 35.5 99.7 54.5 saudi arabia 33.4 97.1 n/a malaysia 32.6 61.3 19.0 yemen 29.8 99.1 54.0 syria 19.3 87.0 82.5 senegal 15.8 96.1 46.7 somalia 11.7 99.8 n/a tunisia 11.7 99.1 15.5 jordan 10.5 97.2 14.2 uae 9.9 76.0 19.5 oman 4.6 85.9 n/a kuwait 2.0 74.6 n/a bahrain 1.5 73.7 n/a source: abdel mohsin (2020) according to the table above, the population of muslims living below the national poverty line in 2015-2017 was 82.5%, 54.5%, and 54% in syria, afghanistan, and yemen, respectively, and 46.7% in nigeria, senegal, and sudan. meanwhile, indonesia had the largest proportion of the muslim population, reaching 87%, with 28.1% of people living below the national poverty line in 2015-2017 (abdel mohsin, 2020). international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 25-37 27 however, the conditions above are not in line with the wealth of natural resources owned by muslim countries, which is about 70% in oil, natural gas, gold, and copper (syed and genç, 2019). muhammad, the islamic prophet, provided a solution by increasing the number of successful muslim entrepreneurs, which muhrin (2017) explained by stating that a strong believer was more loved by allah than a weak one. meanwhile, frinces (2012) argued that entrepreneurship plays an essential role in increasing income, improving the community's quality of life, and making a nation prosperous. this has been proven by many asian countries, such as malaysia, singapore, taiwan, hong kong, japan, and south korea, as well as by the united states and european countries (frinces, 2012). david mcclelland stated that a minimum ratio of 2% of the population must be entrepreneurs to achieve prosperity (hutagalung et al., 2019). several previous studies by masuo et al. (2001) and dewi and dhewanto (2012), alongside mohamed and baqutayan (2016), focused on exploring and describing the definition of success and the key factors involved in a family business. furthermore, izza and tarmidzi (2018) investigated the effect of ethics on batik production by muslim entrepreneurs and found a strong correlation with environmental sustainability. in a recent study, rafiki and nasution (2019) produced a reference framework for business success factors for muslim women entrepreneurs. also, issoufou (2019) reported the importance of the young generation of muslim entrepreneurs in overcoming poverty in muslim-populated countries. additionally, anggadwita et al. (2017) studied their intentions and discovered five attributes that contribute to their success. this study identified several factors and indicators influencing successful muslim entrepreneurs, as research discussing the conceptual model is still limited. finally, a conceptual model was created, which is the initial contribution to solving poverty among the muslim population in the world. 2. method this study used a literature review and descriptive-qualitative approach to identify several factors and their indicators that influence the success of individual muslim entrepreneurs. initially, the development of muslim entrepreneurs in indonesia was described, followed by the identification of success indicators. these indicators generated exogenous variables whose selection was purposively performed, such that those in the significant category were chosen. the success factors and indicators affecting muslim entrepreneurs were identified and analyzed based on previous studies. these were the endogenous variables, and their combination with the exogenous factors ultimately produced a latent variable compiled for the model of ssuccessful muslim entrepreneurs. 3. result and discussion this section describes the development of muslim entrepreneurs in indonesia and discusses the indicators and factors of their success alongside the conceptual model. a. development of muslim entrepreneurs in indonesia indonesian muslims have the largest proportion in the world, and a recent article by syafii and harahap (2020) stated that the number reached 87.17% or 232 million. however, the number of entrepreneurs is still far behind that of neighboring countries, and according to antoni (2016), it was below the minimum standard of 2% in 2016. in 2009, 400,000 entrepreneurs constituted 0.18% of the total population (frinces, 2010), with a decline of 28 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 25-37 1.56% in 2013, as stated by steelyana (2013). in a recent article, priambodo and ghina (2020) stated that indonesia's entrepreneurs reached 3.1% in 2018, according to the central statistics agency. nawangpalupi et al. (2016) also indicated that this ratio was lower than that in malaysia and singapore (5% and 7%, respectively). furthermore, hutagalung et al. (2019) explained that, in line with david mcclelland, a minimum of 2% of the population must be entrepreneurs to realize prosperity. frinces (2010) argued that this ratio illustrates that people's purchasing power and proportion of indonesian entrepreneurs above 2% will become the principal capital in the country's prosperity. however, there is still a lack of intention to become entrepreneurs, which has declined since 2013, although it has fluctuated slightly, as shown by the global entrepreneurship monitor (gem, 2018). this is illustrated in the following image. figure 1. the growth of entrepreneurial intentions in indonesia source: afrianty (2019), gem (2018) the figure above shows that the development of entrepreneurial intentions decreased, as it was 39.65% in 2013 and declined five years later to 21.2% in 2018. subsequently, the government and entrepreneurial stakeholders need to be concerned about this issue, as the implication of its continuation is a decline in the number of entrepreneurs. therefore, various efforts must be made immediately. b. indicators of success the indicators of success, which is the ideal of every muslim entrepreneur, should be known. in addition, this is a motivation to clarify the direction of their goals, as their success is generally broader than that of other entrepreneurs. based on the literature review, four dimensions of success for muslim entrepreneurs were discovered: business achievement, financial performance, non-financial performance, and the achievement of maqashid sharia. yaacob and azmi (2012) identified six indicators of success in the business performance dimension viz. income, asset ownership, savings growth, market growth, alongside increased profitability and sales. then, five indicators were used for financial performance, which is the second dimension proposed by salwa et al. (2013): return on assets, return on investment, assets owned, profits, and income. these indicators were obtained from various expert opinions, as listed in table 1, show that they are widely used to measure entrepreneurs’ success, including, in this case, that of muslims. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 25-37 29 the third dimension of success was non-financial performance, which employed three indicators: customer satisfaction, personality development, and entrepreneur awareness. it was adopted from masuo et al. (2001), which was obtained from zinger et al. (2001), rhodes and butler (2004), and most recently, hadi and borhan (2013). finally, the fourth dimension of success, achieving the maqashid of sharia, utilized opinions from zuhdi (2014) and naim et al. (2017), which were adopted from well-known scholars such as imams al-ghazali and al-syatibi, and fulfilled daruriyyat and hajiyyat. fulfilling their daruriyyat includes five factors: guarding the glory of religion (ad-din), guarding life (al-nafs), guarding reason and mind (al-aql), maintaining maruah and descent (al-nasb), and ultimately protecting treasure (al-mal). table 2. identification results of the dimensions and indicators of success no dimension indicator source 1 business achievements the indicators of business achievement comprised revenue, asset ownership, savings growth, market growth, as well as increased profitability and sales. yaacob and azmi (2012) 2 financial performance the indicators of financial performance are return on assets, return on investment, assets owned, advantages, and income. duchesneau and gartner (1990), gadenne (1998), orser et al. (2000), masuo et al. (2001), paige and littrell (2002), (haber and reichel, 2005), norma, md. saad , jarita (2010), nwachukwu (2011), salwa et al. (2013) 3 non-financial performance the indicators of non-financial performance are customer satisfaction, personality development, and entrepreneur awareness. masuo et al. (2001), zinger et al. (2001), rhodes and butler (2004), hadi and borhan (2013), salwa et al. (2013) 4 achieving maqashid of sharia the indicators of achieving maqashid of sharia involve fulfilling their daruriyyat, which comprise maintaining the glory of religion (ad-din), taking care of life (alnafs), guarding the intellect and mind (alaql), maintain dignity and lineage (alnasb), guarding property (al-mal), and fulfilling hajiyyat. zuhdi (2014), mohd naim et al. (2017) adopted from imams alghazali and al-syatibi based on the table above, successful muslim entrepreneurs can be measured more fully through four dimensions, illustrating that it must provide benefits for the individual, their families, society, and nation. the first dimension is business achievement. the results of the tests conducted by yaacob and azmi (2012) found that six business achievement indicators comprised revenue, asset ownership, savings growth, market growth, increased profitability, and sales had a cronbach’s alpha value of 0.9. this indicates that the item in question was very reliable. this is in line with the opinion of kolvereid and isaksen (2017) that business achievement is essential for various company stakeholders. the second dimension is financial performance. this dimension was suggested by salwa et al. (2013), which was adopted from rhodes and butler (2004). meanwhile, several measurement indicators, namely return on assets, return on investment, assets owned, 30 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 25-37 profit, and income, were adopted from various e.q. duchesneau and gartner (1990), gadenne (1998), orser et al. (2000), masuo et al. (2001), paige and littrell (2002), haber and reichel (2005), norma, md. saad et al. (2010), nwachukwu (2011), and salwa et al. (2013). protopappa-sieke and seifert (2010) argue that financial performance is essential for superior and sustainable financial system performance. the third dimension is non-financial performance. this dimension was also suggested by salwa et al. (2013), which was adopted from rhodes and butler (2004). several indicators used in the non-financial performance dimension are customer satisfaction, personality development, and entrepreneurial awareness. these three indicators were adopted from several researchers, such as masuo et al. (2001), zinger et al. (2001), rhodes and butler (2004), hadi and borhan (2013), and salwa et al. (2013). the fourth dimension is the achieving maqashid of sharia. according to shinkafi et al. (2017), the term 'maqasid sharia' (the purpose of sharia) comes from a compound word (word, 'maqsad or maqsid' and the term 'sharia'). the term 'maqsad or maqsid' is an arabic word that refers to 'aim, wisdom, intent or purpose'. then, shinkafi et al. (2017) describe the word 'maqsad or maqsid' as combined with the term 'sharia', which means ‘path’ ‘way’ or ‘a path to watering place’ it also means 'islamic law'. according to zuhdi (2014) and naim et al. (2017), the dimensions of the maqashid of sharia were adopted from imam al-ghazali and al-syatibi. karim (2007), in the latest article rafsanjani (2016), explains imam al-ghazali’s opinion, which states that the maqashid of sharia has three scopes: daruriyyat (primary needs), hajiyyat (secondary needs), and tahsiniyyat (tertiary needs). in the next stage, karim (2010), in indra's latest article (2018), explains the views of imam as-shatibi, which details the happiness of human life both in the world and in the hereafter by fulfilling the five basic goals of maqasid of sharia. therefore, this study identifies the dimensions of achieving maqashid of sharia by fulfilling their daruriyyat, which comprises maintaining the glory of religion (ad-din), taking care of life (alnafs), guarding the intellect and mind (al-aql), maintaining dignity and lineage (al-nasb), guarding property (al-mal), and fulfilling hajiyyat. c. success factors realizing the success of muslim entrepreneurs is essential and an effort to contribute to the nation's prosperity. subsequently, the 2% figure is a reference for a country to implement development, and various programs must be directed to achieve this minimum ratio. based on the literature review, four factors that significantly affect the success of muslim entrepreneurs were identified: capital, knowledge, personality, and internal factors. first, the capital factor originated from a study by muhamat et al. (2013), which explained the meaning of the cash capital needed to run a new business. a test on asnaf entrepreneurship in selangor, malaysia, by muhamat et al. (2013) found that capital significantly affects their success. the second factor was knowledge identified from the results of research by muhamat et al. (2013), which referred to omerzel and antoncic (2008), who stated that knowledge is a determining factor that differentiates entrepreneurs from competitors. therefore, those with better quality knowledge are more efficient and can learn and understand market changes more quickly. muhamat et al. (2013) also explained that, according to yoo et al. (2011), organizations with high-quality knowledge perform better, generate new and valuable products and services, reduce costs, increase sales, improve analytical skills, international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 25-37 31 efficiency methods, and performance. consequently, this study found a significant effect of asnaf knowledge on entrepreneurs (muhamat et al., 2013). the third factor was personality, which, according to yaacob and azmi (2012), is one of the main characteristics of a successful entrepreneur and should be great. this research quoted bakar, a. a. (2002), where the word 'personality' was said to originate from the latin word 'persona,' which refers to 'a person's exterior characteristics, including their way of thinking, behavior, and emotions.' yaacob and azmi (2012) found a significant relationship between muslim entrepreneurs' personality and their achievements. one of the main characteristics of entrepreneurial success is the greatness of personality. yaacob and azmi (2012) explained that the origin of the word 'personality' was latin, specifically 'persona,' according to bakar (2002). this term refers to a person's exterior characteristics, including their way of thinking, behavior, and emotions, and the research by yaacob and azmi (2012) showed that the personality of muslim entrepreneurs significantly influenced their achievement. fourth, there were internal factors, which, based on research by hadi and borhan (2013), significant contributed to the success of asnaf entrepreneurs and comprised three dimensions: the practice of religious values, owner characteristics, and management practices. table 3. identification results of the factors of success no factors test result source 1 capital capital significantly affects asnaf entrepreneurs' success. muhamat et al. (2013) 2 knowledge knowledge significantly affects asnaf entrepreneurs' success. muhamat et al. (2013) 3 personality a significant relationship between muslim entrepreneurs' personality and their achievements. yaacob and azmi (2012) 4 internal factors internal factors significantly contribute to the success of asnaf entrepreneurs hadi and borhan (2013) based on the table above, the success factors of muslim entrepreneurs can be measured using four exogenous variables, which were subsequently included in the conceptual model of successful muslim entrepreneurs. the first factor is capital. according to muhamat et al. (2013), capital becomes the main problem when starting a business, especially those without collateral, in applying for financing or credit to banks. for entrepreneurs in the asnaf category, the selangor zakat board (szb) introduced a capital assistance program derived from zakat funds to help asnaf increase income through entrepreneurship (hairi and shamsudin, 2018). the test results by muhamat et al. (2013) show that capital has a significant effect on asnafs’ entrepreneurial success. thus, in the context of muslim entrepreneurs, capital is also important in achieving success. knowledge is the second factor that determines the success of muslim entrepreneurs. this refers to the theory of human capital, initiated by becker (1964) and schultz (1972). becker (1964) and schultz (1972) argue that human capital is in the form of knowledge. the test results of muhamat et al. (2013) found that knowledge has a significant effect on asnaf entrepreneur success. thus, muslim entrepreneurs need to pay attention to the importance of knowledge for their success. 32 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 25-37 the third factor that makes muslim entrepreneurs successful is personality. according to furnham (2008) in setia (2018), personality is a structured and dynamic process within the individual expressed through a particular form of behavior. yaacob and azmi (2012) argue that a great personality is one of the main characteristics of a successful entrepreneur. yaacob and azmi (2012) explain the meaning of personality by referring to bakar’s (2009) opinion. bakar (2009) argues that the word personality comes from the latin word persona, which refers to a person's exterior characteristics, including their way of thinking, behavior, and emotions. the test results of setia (2018) found that one in five personality dimensions had a significant correlation with successful entrepreneurs. the fourth factor that makes muslim entrepreneurs successful is internal factors. hadi and borhan (2013) identified that in asnaf entrepreneurs, three internal factors have a significant influence on their success. the three internal factors consisted of practices of religious values, owner characteristics, and management practices. hadi and borhan (2013) state that the three items of internal factors refer to the commercial triumphs that khadijah has carried out. d. conceptual model a conceptual model of successful muslim entrepreneurs is essential for the partial and simultaneous testing phases to determine the factors that significantly influence this variable. therefore, this model development uses the normal cycle of a study, comprising the description, explanation, and testing performed continuously (meredith, 1993), as presented in the normal research cycle in the following figure. figure 2. the normal research cycle source: meredith (1993) meanwhile, swanson and chermack (2013) argued that a framework is needed to balance theory and practice in applied scientific disciplines. this theoretical framework, which can provide insight into the content and meaning of this research, was produced by identifying several factors and indicators that influence the success of individual muslim entrepreneurs, based on previous literature. after conducting a literature review and analysis, a conceptual model of successful muslim entrepreneurs, consisting of independent and dependent variables, was developed. capital, knowledge, personality, and internal factors were independent, while the success of muslim entrepreneurs was dependent. based on the literature review, the success of muslim entrepreneurs can be influenced by capital, knowledge, personality, and internal factors. therefore, four hypotheses are proposed. 1) capital has a significant influence on successful muslim entrepreneur. (h1) 2) knowledge has a significant influence on successful muslim entrepreneur. (h2) 3) personality has a significant influence on successful muslim entrepreneur. (h3) international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 25-37 33 4) internal factors have a significant influence on successful muslim entrepreneur. (h4) a conceptual model consisting of these four exogenous factors and the endogenous variable, namely, the success of muslim entrepreneurs, was obtained from the hypothesis above. therefore, an illustration of the conceptual framework of successful muslim entrepreneurs is shown in the figure below. figure 3. proposed conceptual framework of successful muslim entrepreneur source: author (proceed) the conceptual model generated in this study can be evaluated by testing the four exogenous variables (capital, knowledge, personality, and internal factors) and the only endogenous factor (i.e., the success of muslim entrepreneurs). for the exogenous variables, the four dimensions of the indicators were evaluated. the capital of muslim entrepreneurs can be working capital and investment. working capital is used for operational or routine purposes in cash, inventory, and so on, and is classified as a current asset, while investments in vehicles, machinery, equipment, etc., are fixed. therefore, the existence of islamic social finance and banks is essential for providing capital support to muslim entrepreneurs. knowledge is also essential for these entrepreneurs and is based on the hadith message conveyed by the prophet muhammad that studying is mandatory for muslims, including women. importance is also a concern and one of the dimensions of the human capital theory. 4. conclusion the existence of muslim entrepreneurs is a solution to poverty, unemployment, and other fundamental problems that plague various muslim-majority countries and is the foundation for realizing the prosperity of these nations. therefore, discovering the success of muslim entrepreneurs, as exemplified by the islamic prophet, is essential. as a contribution to this realization, this study identified four success factors of muslim entrepreneurs: capital, knowledge, personality, and internal factors. in addition, the indicators of their success can be measured in four dimensions: business achievement, financial performance, non-financial performance, and the achievement of a maqashid of sharia. based on these four factors and indicators, a conceptual model of successful muslim entrepreneurs was produced, with results that were consistent with the normal cycle of the study that refers to meredith (1993), which consists of description, explanation, and testing 34 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 25-37 performed continuously. subsequently, this model can be used for partial and simultaneous testing of factors that significantly influence successful muslim entrepreneurs. this is in line with swanson and chermack’s (2013) opinion, which states that the framework aims to balance theory and practice in applied disciplines. the theoretical framework can also provide insights into the content and meaning of this research. this has been shown by identifying several factors and indicators that influence the success of individual muslim entrepreneurs based on previous literature. the limitation was the use of a literature study method with results from previous research, especially in journals. therefore, further research is needed to test the success of muslim entrepreneurs by completing studies with a theoretical background. acknowledgment the authors are grateful to the supervisors and students at the university and in asia for their knowledge. the authors are also grateful to the team at the center for entrepreneurial and leadership studies, who continued to strengthen their capacity to conduct research. references abdel mohsin, m. i.

(nurlaelawati, 2010) explains that al quran mentions the indigent (fakir) and the poor (miskin) as first and second group in the list of recipients. they received priority and primacy of the al quran. it shows that overcoming the problem of poverty is the primary objective of zakat (samad et al., 2016). thus, zakat becomes an instrument of poverty alleviation which is pro-poor and self-targeted that emphasize the role of government through a policy of income distribution and equity in favor of the poor (fikriyah & ridlwan, 2018). as has been obligated in the qur'an in the letter at taubah verse 60, since the year nine hijriyah, rasulullah saw began to apply zakat maal as a primary source of income in medina at that time (djatmiko, 2019). according to muhammad (el-brassi et al., 2020), in its historical development, zakat can even transform the social status of the people from mustahiq (people who are entitled to zakat) to be muzakki with the economic empowerment of the people. this success has occurred in the time of caliph umar bin abdul aziz. gradually during his leadership for 3.5 years, the community which originally became mustahiq then transformed into non-mustahiq, which is not eligible to receive zakat. the success of the zakat institution in the process of transformation mustahiq is a proof of the success of their role in eradicating poverty. however, in reality, the current poverty rate in muslim countries is relatively high. statistical economic and social research and training (kusuma & ryandono, 2016) data show that the poverty rate of oki countries reaches 35% or a total of 465 million people, measured by the world bank poverty standard of us $ 1.25 per day per person (wijayanti & ryandono: 2019). from the whole oic countries, according to (muhammad firdaus et al., 2012), there are only 11 countries that have regulations on zakat, in various forms and levels including the presence of supervisors and implementers of zakat collection and distribution. zakat organization development has reached across countries. borneo bulletin, 3 july 2008 in abdullah (2015: 10), explained that in 2006 the southeast asian zakat conference held in kuala lumpur was initiated the southeast asian zakat council, then in 2008 was formed international zakat organization initiated by mabims which consists of malaysia, indonesia, singapore and brunei foreign ministries. this history recall an enthusiasm conducting cross-country zakat studies, and encourage the authors to seek the role of zakat institutions in two oic countries, namely indonesia and brunei darussalam. as stated by jaelani (2015: 15), zakat management and implementation in indonesia and brunei darussalam are unique in terms of zakat distribution and empowerment program to international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 129-141 131 tackle poverty. although it has implemented an institutional zakat system, both countries are also still in an effort to alleviate poverty (fatmawati et al., 2020). more specifically, indonesia bears the relatively high poverty rate, which is around 10.7% of indonesia's total population or around 27.76 million people (bps, 2016). even though according to cia world factbook data, the population of indonesia in 2016 reached 258.32 million people or in other words, 87.2% of the population were muslim (yudha, harisah, et al., 2020). whereas brunei darussalam, is a petroleum country whose economic growth is supported by oil and natural gas assets (murniati & beik, 2014). according to (hudaefi et al., 2020), zakat which acts as an instrument to alleviate poverty in the current era, has many advantages over conventional fiscal instruments that already exist. however, supporting instruments are still needed so that the zakat provided can have a sustainability aspect for the life of mustahiq (yalina et al., 2020). zakat optimization requires the support of various parties, including one of them is the effort made by bakaz and baznas to synergize with financial institutions (sukoco et al., 2020). the synergy efforts carried out by baznas, can be seen in the april 27 2017 edition of journal asia, which reports that the national zakat agency (baznas) has begun cooperation with the financial services authority (ojk) in order to improve financial literacy and inclusion. while the synergy carried out by bakaz is building cooperation with islamic banking in terms of the collection and distribution of zakat (ab rahman et al., 2019). the commissioner chairman of indonesia financial services authority, otoritas jasa keuangan (ojk), explained that zakat has a relationship with financial inclusion because it plays an important role in reducing poverty (yudha & lathifah, 2018). through this collaboration, he stated that he would produce several benefits at once (roy & goswami, 2013). first, it will facilitate the process of zakat payment from the zakat payers (muzakki) and help the process of distributing zakat to the recipients of alms (mustahiq). second, providing a wider amount of access to payments and distribution of zakat, infaq and alms (zis). third, increasing the financial inclusion of the community by opening access to financial products and services for muzakki and mustahiq. fourth, expand the function of smart sales agents to conduct financial education and zakat especially for agents who fulfill the requirements, as well as economic empowerment of the surrounding community (ridwan et al., 2019). this statement indicates that there is a multiplier effect on the implementation of synergy of zakat institutions and financial institutions (nastiti & kasri, 2019). thus zakat optimization can occur because there is a synergy of financial institutions so that mustahiq who receives zakat can later be financially inclusive (michelle et al., 2017). finally, the impact generated from zakat can be sustainable. this is the background of the authors to examine a financial inclusion happen through the zakat empowerment program. with the comparative study of the implementation of financial inclusion by zakat institutions in indonesia and brunei darussalam, it is expected to provide output in the form of inputs and references for the management of zakat in indonesia which is more inclusive of finance. so that the impact zakat distribution for mustahiq can then run sustainably and optimally. regarding this background, in this study, the author raised the title, "financial inclusion through zakat empowerment program: in indonesia and brunei darussalam” 132 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 129-141 2. method the research approach used in this research is qualitative descriptive research with case study strategy. case study is a suitable strategy to answer how and why question (yudha, ryandono, et al., 2020). in this case, the research question is about how are the financial inclusion held in indonesia and brunei through zakat empowerment program? so this research use a qualitative case study strategy to answer those question. the data used in this study are primary and secondary information about empowerment program given by zakat institution in indonesia and brunei darussalam. the primary data taken from zakat officer of governmental zakat institution in indonesia and brunei darussalam, and also some zakat recipients (mustahiq) of their empowerment program. they are head of baznas (center commissioner and jatim), head of empowerment program baznas (center and jatim), head of propaz bakaz muib brunei, and also some mustahiq from both countries. then secondary data derived from books, economic journal and articles which are related to research topic, either printed or online. validity test data that have been done in triangulation methods, they are triangulation of source and triangulation of method (yudha, 2020). triangulation of source happened in the in depth interview process with zakat officers in indonesia and brunei darussalam, with information from mustahiq of zakat institution. while the triangulation of method is the way to find that information from informants is same with the information from documents and other informants. after collecting data, the next step is analyze the data to obtain a conclusion. data analysis techniques are done by descriptive and data interpretation is done by content analysis. in conducting this research, the technique was used to determine zakat program. then, after the collected data is classified, the next is the analytical technique to find the pattern of financial inclusion process trough zakat empowerment program then can be deduced. 3. result and discussion 3.1. management of zakat indonesia and brunei darussalam 3.1.1. indonesia indonesia is the fourth most populous country in the world with an area of 1.913.578.68 km2 spread over 34 provinces. based on data from the statistical year book of indonesia (bank indonesia, 2011), population of indonesia amounted to 255.461.700 inhabitants. of the total population of 87% are muslim (olalekan & simmeon, 2015). this figure is much higher when compared to other countries, that is why indonesia said to be a country with a majority muslim population in the world. data from undp (rosadi et al., 2018), states that the indonesian human development index (hdi) is 0.684. the figure shows that indonesia is in the middle position, which is ranked 110 out of 188 countries. economically, indonesia is included in the category of developing countries with various economic potential in it. management of zakat in indonesia, which has the largest muslim population spread across the province, is undertaken by a government-formed body (baznas) and an institution founded by the community (laz). in the formal scope of the state, the government has established baznas which, according to baznas.go.id, is aimed at the national scale of zakat management by badan amil zakat nasional (baznas) and lembaga amil zakat (laz) can run professionally, trusty and transparent, the purpose of zakat management for the benefit and prosperity of the people can be achieved. badan amil zakat nasional (baznas) is the official and the only one formed by the government based on presidential decree no. ri. 8 of 2001 which has the duty and function international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 129-141 133 of collecting and distributing zakat, infaq, and shadaqah (zis) at the national level. not only have role as zakat manager and organizer, baznas also acts as coordinator of zakat management of national scale which is confirmed through the act no. 23 of 2011 on the management of zakat. under the act, baznas is declared a nonstructural government institution which is independent and responsible to the president through the minister of religious affairs. thus, baznas with the government is responsible for guarding the management of zakat which is based on: syariah islam, amanah, beneficiaries, justice, legal certainty, integrated and accountability. for the implementation of such duties and functions, baznas has authority to a) collect, distribute, and utilize zakat; b) providing recommendations in the formation of provincial baznas, municipal baznas, and laz; and c) requesting reports on implementation of zakat, infaq, and other religious social funds to provincial baznas and laz. as mentioned before, the management of zakat in indonesia is done decentralized. centralized, zakat regulation and reporting is held by the central baznas located in jakarta, complemented by zakat management at central government agencies. more broadly, zakat management in local government institutions is carried out by the provincial or regency / city baznas. the rest, zakat to the wider community is managed interspersed between baznas and laz. in every province in indonesia there are zakat managers located in one coordination line of the central baznas, namely the provincial baznas. in general, the pattern of zakat distribution and empowerment mustahiq through zakat on baznas done gradually with a special treatment on each mustahiq. the charts that become the reference for the implementation of zakat disbursement by baznas in general, are as follows: source: ryandono and wijayanti, edited (2019) figure 1. baznas empowerment’s pattern explanation of the schematic above is as follows. based on ryandono and wijayanti (2019), the first stage devoted to the very poor category which could not even fulfill their basic needs is given an alms or qardhul hasan scheme. in analogy, first stage is stage of 134 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 129-141 giving fishes to be eaten by mustahiq. because in those poor condition, mustahiq must be assisted to meet basic needs first. the second stage are for those who have been categorized as poor, they were who economically active but still insufficient to fulfil their needs. this vulnerably poor is still given qardhul hasan, but it is expected to enter scheme like those in bmt or syaria micro finance. this point is a starting point of zakat empowerment which zakat officer start to awakening mustahiq to enter real sector. i this part, mustahiq must be taught in advance, not just given a capital but also needs assistance like capacity building so that later results become sustain. the empowerment of mustahiq in baznas is more comprehensively summarized in zakat community development (zcd) program, where in field there are some successful cases, some are still learning, and some have not succeeded. the third stage is micro enterprise development. it is started when mustahiq smes by baznas can stable and bankable then they are possible to develop, in this stage they can enter into the profit-sharing scheme. to overshadow the people who are at this stage still need the role of sharia financial institutions to meet their financing needs, because they are no longer able to receive from the zakat institution. informant from baznas added that the existence of zakat institutions that have tried to enter into al bai (real sector) also still need support from the financial, especially micro finance sector. baznas empowerment program named zcd according to manager of zcd in baznas center, zakat community development (zcd) is a channeling activity by elaborating the fields of education, da'wah, economy, health, and humanity in a comprehensive container community development. the stages of implementation of the zcd program are as follows: 1) the first stage is the pilot stage. baznas conducts the assessment process, conducts the process of compacting the needs of the community, then delves further what the mustahiq wants, and then baznas create a program for them. 2) reinforcement stage, how baznas strengthen mustahiq with program program to be compiled, which will be done together, where the program has been prepared according to the desire and necessity of mustahiq. 3) the third stage is self-reliance is about how mustahiq can be independent, and collaborate with other stakeholders, mustahiq can get the best results from what they do. based on information collected from the website baznas.go.id, it is known that the main juan zcd program is "realization of prosperous and independent society". the specific objectives of the zcd program are: a) growing awareness of mustahiq / beneficiaries about quality life; b) growing participation towards community self-reliance; c) growing social and economic social network; and d) creating a sustainable empowerment program in realizing community welfare and independence. zcd activity began to be applied since 2012, but still few areas in indonesia that apply this zcd. including in one of big province-java province, the zcd program has not been effectively implemented due to several constraints, including human resource constraints and facilities (ryandono & wijayanti, 2019). so that in baznas province like east java they had implemented an empowerment program that is aligned with the pattern of empowerment submitted figure 4.1 above. the program is called a revolving capital loan. the capital loan has been applied since 2006 where one group of mses received a business capital loan with a 1 year return term directly to baznas. then since 2015 this program is more mandated to partners of baznas east java. 3.1.2. brunei darussalam brunei darussalam is a small imperial state located on the northwestern island of borneo (borneo). data from brunei darussalam statistical yearbook (bdsyb, 2015: 1), states that international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 129-141 135 the total area of the negara brunei darussalam is 5.765 km2 with a total population of 417.200 people in 2015. the population composition is dominated by malay ethnicity (66%), followed by china 10%), and others (24%) (bdsyb, 2015: 9). the brunei darussalam region is divided into four districts, with densely populated districts being brunei muara (72% of the population), followed by belait area (15%), tutong (11%), and temburong (2%). the level of human development index (hdi) of brunei is high, that is 0.856 higher than indonesia, even it reached 31st place of 188 countries in the world (undp, 2015: 2). of the total population, 66% of the population of brunei is muslim. economically, brunei is one of the highest per capita income countries in asia (abdullah, 2012: 41). brunei's majority economy is sustained by oil and gas output. 3.1.3. the brunei government institution of zakah: bakaz muib the management of zakat in brunei darussalam is conducted centrally under the coordination of the ministry of religious affairs in brunei, namely the islamic council of brunei darussalam or commonly referred to as the majelis ugama islam brunei (muib). fund management zakat is then specifically handled in a single unit under the muib called the badan agihan dan kutipan zakat (bakaz). bakaz is the only government zakat institution responsible for the collection and distribution of zakat in brunei darussalam. in bakaz there is a special unit focused on managing zakat empowerment program known as propaz. propaz is a zakat aid program to the poor asnaf in the form of skills training, skills and guidance implemented by the propaz board under the control of bakaz in cooperation with several royal parties and private companies as service providers. zakat empowerment program given to faqir miskin in a form of zakat assistance are propaz ppb and propaz perantis. in the implementation, propaz perantis and propaz ppb training by doing collaboration with pusat pembangunan belia (ppb) of kementrian kebudayaan, belia, dan sukan (kkbs). propaz ppb held in a year within 9 months, with 3 months of incubation training at pusat pembangunan belia (ppb), 3 months internship in company, 3 months job placing. after it they can also build their own business if they want to. from the data of propaz bakaz (2017), the training given to zakat recipients are including information and communication technology, the art of kulinari and banquet facilities, beauty therapy, the fashion technology and tailoring, and also technical (welding and vehicle body repair, pipe fittings and plumbing, as well as airconditioning and refrigerators). the course choosing is depend on the willingness of recipients, in what course they are interesting. the output of this ppb program is more to make the recipient to be an entrepreneur by their skills. then propaz perantis is a 2 years program that more focus to linked the faqir miskin to the good work by some companies. before do it, propaz will assist them to get the job training from the near companies (with them) for 6 months, and they can have job placing for next 6 months, and if they are good enough for the next year they can make a mou with the company if they can officially work there. after company take that recipients it means that propaz job is done. in both program ppb and perantis, recipient also given a zakat fund as their income. this fund is taken from zakat fund in bakaz to help them fulfill their need, even to empower them. 3.1.4. financial inclusion on zakat empowerment program zakat distribution in muslim countries has two function to help poor people in different financial condition. it can be used to fulfill consumption and production needs of asnaf. consumption needs of poor people can be covered by zakat distribution which functioned as redistribution instrument. this redistribution means the income and wealth of aghniya’ 136 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 129-141 are given to dhuafa’ as alms within qardh al hassan aqad or in baznas model analogy is giving them fish. then for the better condition dhuafa’ who can do the work but their income is not sufficient to fulfil their needs and even vulnerably become poor, zakat can be functioned as microfinance instrument. this microfinance means zakat fund can be given as productive fund to do mustahiq work/business during empowerment program. in baznas model, this function analogy is teaching mustahiq fishing skill and hand them fishing equipment’s. so that mustahiq can learn to take responsibility as a borrower to payback zakat fund using syirkah aqad or qardh. the implementation of zakat distribution on consumption and production fulfilment, needs some participation from related parties to support mustahiq financial inclusion process. on results of in-depth interviews with expert informants at baznas and bakaz, it was found that there were attempts at financial inclusion in zakat distribution by government zakat institution. table 1. financial inclusion through baznas and bakaz zakat institution financial inclusion in zakat distribution financial institution partner indonesia (baznas) central baznas zakat for consumption needs islamic banks zakat for production activity: zcd zakat community development islamic banks, bmt, bprs linked by ojk baznas east java zakat for consumption needs manually zakat for production activity jatim makmur: capital loan islamic banks and bmt brunei (bakaz) zakat for consumption needs manually and islamic banks zakat for production activity: propaz ppb and perantis +additional : capital loan islamic banks source: research result (2020) data compiled from baznas management stated that the financial inclusion done by baznas has different implementation. it is caused by implementation of decentralized on zakat management in indonesia so there are many different factors. in central baznas jakarta which the system has been settled, informant told that zakat consumption has been delivered to mustahiq by bank transfer to their account. but it is not applied yet to province baznas, as to baznas in east java or baznas jatim. informant baznas jatim stated that sometimes zakat officer gave zakat funds directly to mustahiq in reachable location. but if mustahiq location is far from office, distribution of zakat fund would be delivering to municipal baznas or baznas partners in city or rural area and they will give it directly to mustahiq within report mechanism. in terms of productive zakat by empowerment program as what have been planned in baznas system, in this stage baznas task is to train mustahiq during financial inclusion processes. because zakat managers thought that financial inclusion is an important thing to make the zakat impacts more beneficiaries to help mustahiqs. that’s why in baznas empowerment program (zcd), mustahiq smes possibly grow stronger, stable, and bankable, so that they can get further profit-sharing financing from islamic banks, bmt, bprs which are linked by ojk. in other side, implementation of zakat empowerment program in baznas jatim is a bit different. the lack of resources and system cause municipal baznas like baznas jatim did not applied zcd program. in fact, they still gave assistance within capital loan to support mustahiq smes and gradually will adopt zcd program. this capital loan for mustahiq in baznas jatim is mandated to baznas jatim partners from non-governmental organizations (ngo) and foundations. then this ngo will distribute capital loan to mustahiq international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 129-141 137 groups during the empowerment program they gave like bookkeeping, accounting, marketing, and so on. baznas partner informant stated that capital loan program is given in 3 years gradually to train them repay their loan, and after the program completed and the assistance will be loaned to other mustahiq groups in need. so that in those 3 years baznas partners optimize mustahiq with many entrepreneur skills so that after program, they can become independent smes and bankable. in bakaz, brunei darussalam, islamic banks have a big role in compilation and distribution of zakat funds. zakat distribution for consumption needs, mustahiq have choices to take zakat fund directly and manually to central zakat office, or can be transferred from islamic banks if they have bank account. islamic banks who become bakaz partners are tabung amanah islam brunei (taib) and bank islam brunei darussalam (bibd). on those participation, islamic banks as bakaz partners are not given amil fund portion but they can get ujrah from administration fee of bank account, bank services, and so on. zakat empowerment program in bakaz brunei named propaz and propaz ppb is done centrally in a training center kkbs, beside that bakaz also give mustahiqs monthly salary during their training in kkbs. the fund given to mustahiq both to fulfill their family daily needs and some of mustahiq also use the rest of it as a capital to run a small business. once they can prove that their business runs well, mustahiq also can proposed capital loan based on productive zakat fund. besides that, brunei government under kkbs also provide financing program named japem to give capital loan to the recommended mustahiq alumnus of propaz or propaz ppb that need to scale up their business. all of this zakat distribution in brunei, whether it is for consumption or production, are all done by bank transfer. so that, the integrated system of central agency of government will easier to transfer the charity fund, as well as they can avoid the over lapping charity fund given by another ministry. this scheme also makes mustahiq easier to access the fund, also to keep save their money in bank as savings. these two kinds of zakat empowerment program held by baznas in indonesia and bakaz in brunei darussalam, have a different type of financial inclusion. as well as the theory of financial inclusion, those two systems have been containing principle of financial inclusion that also contain in zakat empowerment program. there are several principle and benefits of financial inclusion contained in zakat empowerment programs (wahid: 2014), including 1). related to access, especially access to business loan sources, will automatically open business opportunities and/can be used to increase the investment size of small entrepreneurs. 2) second, the opening of networks into the formal financial sector allows the poor to access various types of business loans, utilizing savings options, and utilizing insurance products on soft terms. 3) third, regarding costs, it is intended that the existence of an inclusive financing will reduce the costs of repaying loans that must be borne by the low income poor, 4) fourth, it can utilize accounts that have been integrated with various government programs, thus facilitating and securing funds society. here we can infer that both zakat in baznas and bakaz have already fulfill all the principle and benefits of financial inclusion through zakat distribution and empowerment program. baznas and bakaz have proven that zakat institution also brings financial inclusion process when they delivered zakat on consumption and production needs of mustahiq. in zakat for consumption distribution, even though baznas jatim distribute manually but mostly central baznas and bakaz have done within bank transfer which means mustahiq became literate and open access into islamic banks facility. in zakat for production activity, along with empowerment program, both baznas and bakaz also 138 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 129-141 provide capital loan or financing mustahiq smes whether in qardh or syirhkah aqad. this process aims to train business skills and responsibility of mustahiq to repay those capital loan, then they can sustain in doing their business and become bankable. after that, hopefully they can access facility of islamic financial institution and gradually scale up their business. so that they can cut those vicious cycle of poverty, transform as no longer mustahiq or even transform into muzakki. this islamic charity institution in zakat instrument practically can answer mustahiq needs by financial inclusion that most of them are un-bankable which most of banks institution would not attach them, and right after zakat empowerment program they are targeted to be bankable and financially included. so it can be said that zakat institution is actually an islamic financial inclusion’s institution. 4. conclusion zakat institution in indonesia (baznas) and brunei (bakaz) have done financial inclusion process during their distribution on consumption needs and productive activities for mustahiq. most of zakat institution have done bank transfer to distribute consumption zakat which made mustahiq became literate and open access into islamic banks facility. in productive zakat along with empowerment program, beside using bank transfer, both baznas and bakaz also provide capital loan or financing mustahiq. this process aims to train business skills and responsibility of mustahiq to repay those capital loan, so that mustahiq can transform gradually to be bankable and have financial access to scale up their business. based on those facts, zakat institution has contained four principles and functions of the financial institution. so, it can be said that zakat institution is an islamic financial inclusion's institution. this research suggests indonesian government to support the integrated system of zakat program like have been started in brunei, as well as other zakat institution to always do the betterment for zakat management. and for other researcher, there are many opportunities to creating concept about islamic financial inclusion from zakat or other islamic charity instrument. the further research about this area is always needed to support the islamic economic development in indonesia and around the world. acknowledgment we would like to thank you for all informants who have been participate in interview and give valuable contributions to this paper. we also thank to reviewers who give advices for the betterment of this paper. this research is conducted for analyze and develop concept of financial inclusion through zakat empowerment program: in indonesia and brunei darussalam.

audit is an independent audit process examining the financial statements of an organization to provide a reasonable opinion or opinion regarding its fairness and suitability with generally accepted accounting principles (nur, emrinaldi, julita, 2014 & adrian, 2017). the auditor is divided into two namely internal auditors and external auditors. internal auditors are employees who audit various elements within an entity that employees have complied with all entity policies efficiently. while employee auditors have complied with all entity policies efficiently. whereas the external auditor is a separate audit from the entity to ensure that the policy has been carried out in accordance with established standards. an auditor has the duty to carry out an audit of an entity’s financial statements and provide opinions or opinions on the account balance in the financial statements whether it has been presented fairly in accordance with financial reporting standards or generally applicable accounting principles and financial reporting standards or accounting principles generally accepted and the standards have been implemented consistently. in indonesia, cheating on government agencies does not only involve people who have high positions but also those who are under them, and not only in the central government but also within the local government (anggriawan, 2019; hartan, 2016). given the importance of the tasks carried out by the internal auditor / inspectorate, it is necessary to ensure that the tasks and functions carried out can be carried out properly. expertise and technical skills to carry out checks are certainly a very significant thing in carrying out these tasks. with the support of competencies and audit techniques as well as other competencies from the formal and informal levels of education and experience in audit practice, the auditor must be able to collect and evaluate the evidence used to support the assessment given (awaluddin, 2013). the process of recording financial transactions is usually done manually and requires carefulness and carefulness of the workforce (girinatha surya & sari widhiyani, 2016). where the financial statement information will be used as the basis for management decision making. the financial statements presented must be completely free of material misstatements and the financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting standards (adnyani, atmadja & herawati, 2014). management of state finances as well as the private sector is inseparable from the risk of fraud. various cases of fraud such as corruption, financial report manipulation, and asset fraud can also occur in the government environment (sugiarto, 2016; arsendy, 2017). in order for fraud to be minimized, of course companies or government agencies need effective and efficient ways to improve internal control (hartan, 2016). fraud or fraud is increasingly prevalent in various ways that continue to grow so that the auditor’s ability to detect fraud must also be continually improved, however, the auditor is required to remain able to detect fraud if fraud occurs in carrying out his audit duties (anggriawan, 2014). one factor that can be considered or possessed by an auditor to strengthen its ability to detect fraud is the expertise of an auditor. audit must be carried out by someone who has sufficient technical expertise and training as an auditor. expertise is an important element that must be owned by an independent auditor in order to become a professional workforce. auditor expertise is considered as someone who has extensive knowledge, education and high skills. according to drupadi (2015) and pertiwi and budiartha (2017) an auditor’s expertise in auditing reflects the level of knowledge, experience, and education that the auditor has. (sari and ruhiyat (2018) and (faisal and sari, 2018) state that expertise itself means the ability to apply knowledge to problems that are generally faced and resolve these problems without the need to re-learn extensively and meaningful assistance from other parties. the expertise of an auditor, the ability possessed by the auditor will be more accurate. with his expertise, the auditor is able to learn actively, process 39international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 37-50 information that is relevant and able to predict and detect fraud and errors so that it can affect the quality of the audit produced later. the auditor uses the skill of his professional skepticism when giving his opinion. in order for the given opinion to be appropriate, the auditor requires all sufficient competent evidence and to obtain this skepticism a skeptical attitude is needed (silalahi, 2013). according to adnyani, atmadja and herawati (2014) professional skepticism is interpreted as an attitude that is not easy to believe in audit evidence presented by management, an attitude that always questions and evaluates critical audit evidence. an auditor with high flight hours as well as the usual finding fraud may be more careful in detecting fraud than auditors with low flight hours (anggriawan, 2014). kartikarini and sugiarto (2016) in their research showed that the higher the professional skepticism that the auditor has, the more desire to find out about the red flags around him. research (noviyanti, 2008) also shows that auditors with an identification-based level of trust if given a high fraud risk assessment will show higher professional skepticism in detecting fraud, whereas in auditors with calculus-based trust levels, the level of fraud risk assessment will not be high. affect his skepticism. in contrast to research conducted by rahayu (2016) where professional skepticism does not affect the auditor’s ability to detect fraud because, (1) there are differences in the level of skepticism between senior auditors and junior auditors (2) fraud perpetrators are considered brave and have high intellectual property, and have sophisticated ways. the basic thing that must be considered by auditors is ethics in profession. according to ariyanto (2010) professional ethics is needed by each profession to gain trust from the public, such as the profession of auditors. futri and juliarsa (2014) professional ethics includes a standard of attitudes of members of the profession that are designed to be as practical and realistic as possible, but still idealistic. each auditor must adhere to their professional ethics so as not to deviate from the rules in completing his client’s financial statements. if an auditor is unable to carry out his duties in accordance with ethics, the permission of the auditor can be revoked as is the case with a public accountant. auditor performance is not only seen from perfect work ability, but also the ability to master and manage oneself and the ability to build relationships with others. this ability by daniel goleman is called emotional intelligence or emotional intelligence that will give an influence from within a person. goleman (2009) through his research said that emotional intelligence accounted for 80% of the determinants of success, while the other 20% was determined by iq (intelligence quotient). emotional intelligence is a capability in managing our responses and emotions when dealing with other people, situations, interaction problems, and stress conditions, so that we get effective results or our understanding of others so that we can manage all situations and can interact with win-win ways (wijayanti, 2012). emotional intelligence is the ability to recognize one’s own feelings and other people’s feelings, motivate themselves, and manage emotions well in themselves and in relationships with others (choiriah,2013). related to emotional intelligence in acting, someone will know to place themselves in a social environment, understand how to act in everyday life. the quality of audits conducted by the makassar city inspectorate is still in the spotlight because there are still many cases of fraud that have occurred. as the city’s internal supervisor, the inspectorate has carried out several prevention of fraudulent actions by carrying out the data updating follow-up activities along with the skpd in order to follow up on all previous findings. the completion of the follow-up results of the inspection results will be evaluated and monitored on an ongoing basis by the makassar city inspectorate, so that activities like this really require professional and higher-skilled auditors to prevent even more fraudulent acts. 40 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 37-50 the nature of the regional inspectorate functions as an internal government auditor who has the task of carrying out general supervision activities of the regional government and other tasks given by the regional head. so that various forms of fraud such as fraud cases or corruption cases that occur not only can be anticipated, but can also be resolved in the area, especially through the maximum role of the regional inspectorate because fraud committed by regional officials will later have an impact on the community itself. 2. literature review 2.1 cognitive dissonance theory this theory was introduced by leon festinger in 1957. this theory says that humans basically like consistency, therefore humans will tend to take attitudes that do not conflict with each other and avoid taking actions that are not in accordance with his attitude. dissonance means there is an inconsistency. cognitive dissonance means that psychological conditions are unpleasant which arise when in humans there is a conflict between two cognitions or conflicts between behavior and attitudes. cognitive dissonance theory also helps to explain whether the auditor’s professional skepticism is affected or not by the fraud risk assessment that is set by his supervisor, even though the auditor actually has a low level of trust in the client (noviyanti, 2008). 2.2 attribution theory attribution theory was proposed by fritz heider in 1958. in this study attribution theory is used to explain conclusions or decisions made by auditors. attribution theory basically wants to explain the causes of other people’s behavior. is the behavior caused by internal dispositions (eg motives, attitudes, etc.) or by external circumstances (kartikarini and sugiarto, 2016). internal disposition is factors that come from within the individual, while external conditions come from the environment outside the individual. in the context of auditing, attribution theory is widely used by researchers to explain auditor judgment, performance appraisal, and decision making by auditors. attribution is related to valuation and explains how an auditor behaves. the auditor’s ability to detect fraud a lot is determined by internal attribution, where the factors that determine the ability more come from within the auditor. ability can be formed through one’s efforts, for example by seeking knowledge, maintaining independence, and increasing attitudes of professional skepticism. chen, kelly and salterio (2012) and kartikarini & sugiarto (2016) mention that attribution theory can answer questions about social perception but also at the same time relate to self-perception. the auditor when dealing with the red flag when conducting an audit, will try to find the cause and make conclusions about the red flags. an auditor’s self-perception plays an important role in deducing whether red flags lead to symptoms of cheating or just an error. 2.3 management expert management expert is an important element that must be owned by an independent auditor in order to become a professional workforce. auditor expertise (management expert) is considered as someone who has extensive knowledge, education and high skills. management expert is a person or organization that has expertise in a field outside of accounting and auditing, and that expertise can be used to help him in carrying out the tasks he is given (tuanakotta, 2015). according to drupadi (2015) an auditor’s expertise in auditing reflects the level of knowledge, experience, and education that the auditor has. trisnahningsih (2010) states that expertise itself means the ability to apply knowledge to problems that are generally faced and resolve these problems without the need to re-learn widely and meaningful assistance from other parties. the higher an auditor’s expertise, the better the ability of an auditor in an effort to detect fraud. with his expertise, the auditor is able to learn actively, process information that is relevant and able to predict and detect fraud and errors so that it can influence decisions made by the auditor (artha & herawati, 2014). 41international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 37-50 2.4 professional skepticism auditors’ professional skepticism is an attitude in conducting audit assignments (prasetyo, 2015). professional skepticism is considered more important for auditors in assessing audit evidence. skepticism is a critical attitude in assessing the reliability of assertions or evidence obtained, so that in carrying out the audit process an auditor has sufficient confidence in the assertion or evidence he has obtained and also considers the adequacy and suitability of the evidence obtained (anggriawan, 2014). according to hartan (2016) professional skepticism is the attitude of an auditor by always questioning and evaluating critically on existing audit evidence. an auditor who has a professional skepticism will not simply put trust in the client’s explanation relating to audit evidence. the existence of professional skepticism will be better able to analyze the existence of fraudulent acts in the financial statements so that the auditor will increase the detection rate at the next auditing process. 2.5 emotional intelligence emotional intelligence is the ability to face frustration, the ability to control emotions, a spirit of optimism and the ability to establish relationships with other people (khairat, 2017). someone with effective use of emotions in building productive relationships in achieving success in achieving a successful performance. emotional intelligence is an emotional skill that includes the ability to control oneself and have endurance when facing obstacles, being able to control impulses and not be satisfied quickly, able to regulate moods and be able to manage anxiety so as not to interfere with the ability to think, be able to empathize and hope (wijayanti, 2012) so that someone who has emotional intelligence is able to place themselves and act well. 2.6 ability of auditors to detect fraud the ability to detect fraud is a skill or expertise possessed by the auditor to find indications of fraud (anggriawan, 2014). detecting fraud is an attempt to get sufficient initial indications of fraud, while at the same time narrowing down the space for the perpetrators of fraud. in carrying out the role of the audit, the auditor is responsible for planning and carrying out the audit in order to obtain sufficient confidence whether the financial statements are free of material misstatements. with the support of competencies and audit techniques as well as other competencies from the formal and informal levels of education and experience in audit practice, the auditor must be able to collect and evaluate the evidence used to support the award given (awaluddin, 2013). 2.7 previous research herdiansyah, rizki, & sukarmanto (2017) examined the effect of auditor experience, professional and gender expertise on moderate cheating detection professional skepticism. the results of the study indicate that auditor experience, professional expertise and gender have a high influence on fraud detection with professional skepticism as a moderating variable. the results of the study by kartikarini and sugiarto (2016) regarding the effects of gender, expertise and professional skepticism on the ability of auditors to detect fraud. the results showed that gender, expertise and professional skepticism had a positive effect on the auditor’s ability to detect fraud. this is also supported by attribution theory which states that expertise is a part of internal attribution whose existence is largely determined by the factors of the individual including abilities and effort. anggriawan’s research (2014) concerning the effect of work experience, professional skeptics and time pressure on the auditor’s ability to detect fraud (empirical study at the public accountant office in diy). the results showed a positive effect of work experience on the auditor’s ability to detect fraud. there is a positive influence between professional skeptics on the auditor’s 42 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 37-50 ability to detect fraud. there is a negative influence between the time pressure on the auditor’s ability to detect fraud. hartan (2016) examines the effects of professional skeptics, independence and competence on the ability of auditors to detect fraud (empirical study at the inspectorate of the special region of yogyakarta). the higher professional skepticism possessed by auditor increases the auditor’s ability to detect fraud if faced with symptoms of fraud. sari, arwinda., made, & wirakusuma (2018) examined the effect of professional skeptism, ethics, personality types, compensation and experience in fraud detection. the results of these studies indicate professional skepticism has a positive effect on fraud detection. research also shows a positive influence between ethics and fraud detection. compensation also has a positive effect on fraud detection. experience has a positive effect on fraud detection. personality has no effect on fraud detection. the ethics that the auditor has when auditing reports can affect the audit results to be of higher quality. 3. methods the framework is explained in figure 1 below: h 1 h 2 h 3 h 4 h 5 h 6 picture 1 thinking framework based on figure 1 above in detecting fraud committed by auditors, it is also the same as the auditor’s professional skepticism which is the auditor’s attitude in conducting audit assignments where this attitude includes the mind that is always questioning and evaluating critically on audit evidence, because of evidence audit is accumulated and assessed during the audit process, professional skepticism must be used during the process (noviyanti, 2008). and also someone with high emotional intelligence will be more skilled to know which one is right related to the client’s financial statements which will influence auditor opinion. 3.1 hypothesis h 1 : management expert influences the ability of the auditor to detect fraud h 2 : professional skepticism affects the auditor’s ability to detect fraud h 3

auditor’s ability to detect fraud in moderating emotional intelligence the type of research used in this study is explanatory research, namely research that aims to test a theory or hypothesis to strengthen or even reject the theory or hypothesis of the results of existing research. explanatory research is fundamental and aims to obtain information, information, data about things that are not yet known by preparing several questions as a guide to obtain primary data in the form of information, information as the initial data needed. this research was conducted at the makassar city inspectorate office located on teduh bersinar no. 6, gunung sari, makassar city. the research approach used in this study is quantitative which uses numbers and with statistical calculations. quantitative research can be interpreted as a research method used to examine a particular population or sample, sampling techniques are generally carried out randomly, collecting and using research instruments, analyzing quantitative or statistical data with the aim of testing predetermined hypotheses. the population in this study were all auditors at the makassar city inspectorate office. in this study, the sampling technique used saturated samples. saturated sample is a sampling technique if all members of the population are used as a sample of sugiyono (2014) in hariyati (2014)). saturated sample techniques are often used when the population is relatively small. another term for saturated samples is census, in the name of all members of the population used as research samples. the type of data used in this study is subject data. the source of this research data is primary data. with the techniques used by researchers in collecting data, namely: by survey method using questionnaire media (questionnaire). to measure the opinions of respondents, the likert scale is used which generally uses five rating points. 3.2 data analysis method the method of data analysis uses descriptive statistics, data quality tests, classic assumption tests and hypothesis testing with the help of computers. 4. result and discussion 4.1 data quality test results validity test, reliability test, normality test, multicolliniearity test, and heterocedasticity have been done, result analisys show there is no problem in the data and also shows normal data and can be processed in the next regression. table 1 determination coefficient test results (r2) model r r square adjusted r square std. error of the estimate 1 ,920a ,846 ,824 105,453 a. predictors: (constant), professional

expert management variable has a t count of 3.855> t table with sig. α = 0.05 and df = n-k, which is 25-4 = 21 t table 1.673 with a significance level of 0.001 which is smaller than 0.05, then ha is accepted. this means that management experts have a positive effect on the auditor’s ability to detect fraud. the results of this study indicate that when the management experts possessed by auditors increase, the auditor’s ability to detect fraud will be better. thus the first hypothesis which states that management experts influence the ability of auditors to detect fraud is accepted. b. professional skepticism affects the auditor’s ability to detect fraud (h 2 ) based on table 3 it can be seen that the professional skepticism variable has t count of 2.206> t table 1.673 with a significance level of 0.039 which is smaller than 0.05, then ha is accepted. this means that professional skepticism has a positive effect on the auditor’s ability to detect fraud. the results of this study indicate that the better the professional skepticism possessed by the 45international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 37-50 auditor, the better the auditor’s ability to detect fraud. thus the second hypothesis which states professional skepticism has an effect on the auditor’s ability to detect fraud is accepted. c. professional ethics influences the auditor’s ability to detect fraud (h 3 ) based on table 3 it can be seen that the professional ethics variable has t arithmetic of 2.690> t table 1.673 with a significance level of 0.014 which is smaller than 0.05, then ha is accepted. this means that professional ethics has a positive effect on the auditor’s ability to detect fraud. the results of this study indicate that the better the professional ethics possessed by auditors, the better the auditor’s ability to detect fraud. thus the third hypothesis which states professional ethics influences the auditor’s ability to detect fraud is accepted. table 4 determination coefficient test results (r2) model r r square adjusted r square std. error of the estimate 1 ,952a ,907 ,869 ,91148 a. predictors: (constant), x 3 _m, x 1 _m,

significance level of 0.026 which is smaller than 0.05, then ha accepted. because the interaction between management expert variables with the auditor’s ability to detect fraud (b2) has a significance level of 0.001 <0.05 which means significant and the interaction between emotional intelligence and management experts on the auditor’s ability to detect fraud (b3) has a significance level of 0.026 <0.05 significant, the use of emotional intelligence variables is included in the quasi moderation category which means that the variables of emotional intelligence include independent variables and variables that moderate the management expert’s ability to detect fraud. this means that the emotional intelligence variable can strengthen the relationship of the expert management variable to the auditor’s ability to detect fraud. so the fourth hypothesis (h 4 ) which states that emotional intelligence moderates management experts on the auditor’s ability to detect fraud is proven or accepted. b. emotional intelligence moderates the effect of professional skepticism on the auditor’s ability to detect fraud (h 5 ) from the results of the absolute difference test shown in table 6 shows that the absx2_m moderating variable has a t count of 2.152> t table 1.739 (df = nk df = 25-8 = 17) with a significance level of 0.046 which is smaller than 0.05, then ha accepted. because the interaction

intelligence and professional skepticism on the auditor’s ability to detect fraud (b3) has a significance level of 0.046 <0.05 means significant, the use of emotional intelligence variables is included in the quasi moderation category which means that emotional intelligence variables including independent variables and variables that moderate professional skepticism towards the auditor’s ability to 47international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 37-50 detect fraud. this means that the emotional intelligence variable can strengthen the relationship of professional variables skepticism towards the auditor’s ability to detect fraud. so the fourth hypothesis which states emotional intelligence moderates professional skepticism towards the ability of auditors to detect fraud proven or accepted. c. emotional intelligence moderates the influence of professional ethics on the auditor’s ability to detect fraud. from the results of the absolute difference test results shown in table 6 shows that the absx3_m moderating variable has t count of 1.206 0,10 and vif < 10, then it can be concluded that regression model is free and multicollinearity. based on the heteroscedasticity test by using glejser test, it is resulted 114 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 107-117 that

significance is 0.000<0.05 then ho is rejected and ha is accepted. this indicates that management ownership, institutional ownership, corporate responsibility, and profitability simultaneously have significant positive effect to the company’s value. based on the table 4.7 it is resulted t calculated as -1.154 and the value of significance is 0.253 which means > 0.05 and t table = 1.66901, thus, tcalculated as -1.154 < ttable 1.66901 and the value of significance is > 0.05, then, management ownership has insignificant negative effect to the company’s value, therefore, it can be stated that the hypothesis is rejected. this indicates that managers possess personal interests that tends to be fulfilled compares to the achievement of company’s objectives. this study does not support the one conducted by susanti (2014), sholichah (2015), trisnabudi (2015), vitalia (2016), that management ownership has significant positive effect to the company’s value. however, this study supports the one conducted by wida and suartana (2014), hidayah (2015), resulted that management ownership has insignificant negative effect to the company ’s value. based on table 4.7 resulted t calculated as -0.478 and the significant value is 0.635 which means > 0.05 and t table = 1.66901 so tcalculated as -0.478 < ttable 1.66901 and the significant value is > 0.05 so institutional ownership has insignificant positive effect on the company’s value, thus, it can be stated that the hypothesis is rejected. the high and low stock ownership by institutional investor has no correlation with the high and low company’s value. this study does not support the one conducted by susanti (2014), adnantara (2013), dewi and sanica (2017), which resulted that institutional ownership has insignificant positive effect to the company’s value. nevertheless, this study supports the one conducted by sofyaningsih and hardiningsih (2011), that is resulted institutional ownership has insignificant negative effect to the company’s value. based on table 4.7. it is resulted that t calculated as 3.842 and the significant value is 0.000 which means < 0.05 and t table = 1.66901, thus, tcalculated as 3.842 > ttable 1.66901 and the significant value is < 0.05 thus, csr has significant positive effect to the company’s value, therefore, it can be stated that the hypothesis is accepted. the high company’s social disclosure will be positively responded by investors so many investors invest on that company which resulting company’s value is increased. this study supports the one conducted by susanti (2014), zarlia (2014), saridewi et all (2016) with the study ’s result is significant positive effect to the company ’s value. based on table 4.7 it is resulted that t calculated as 11.452 and the significant value is 0.000 which means < 0.05 and t table = 1.66901 so t calculated as 11.452 > ttable 1.66901 and the significant value is < 0.05 thus, profitability has significant positive effect to the company’s value. the better the company pays the return to the shareholder, the more increase the value of the company, so investors are able to know how much percentages the return of their capital in that company. this study supports the one conducted by nurhayati (2012), hemastuti (2014), mardiyati (2012) samosir (2017) mahendra et all (2012) prasetyorini (2013) that profitability has significant positive effect to the company’s value. 5. conclusion based on the analysis that has been conducted, it can be summarized that; (1) management ownership, institutional ownership, csr (2) profitability simultaneously has significant positive 116 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 107-117 effect to the company’s value; (3) management ownership has insignificant negative effect to the company’s value; (4) institutional ownership has insignificant negative effect to the company’s value; (5) csr has significant positive effect to the company’s value; (6) profitability has significant positive effect to the company’s value. the limitation of this study is that the sample used is only the consumer goods industry sector listed on the indonesia stock exchange (idx) so that it is less representative for all companies in indonesia. this study’s period was carried out during 2013-2016 with 72 research samples and after case-wise 69 research samples. the company pt mayora indah tbk (myor) experienced a stock split. stock split is the breakdown of the number of shares into a larger number of shares by using a proportional nominal value per share in proportion. pt mayora indah tbk (myor) to carry out stock split with a ratio of 25: 1 or from the previous idr 500, (five hundred rupiah) per share to idr 20, (twenty rupiah) per share. trading after the stock split was conducted on august 4. on that date, the trading volume sharply increased to 10.56 million shares from the previous day only 79,483 shares. the latest transaction volume was recorded at 1.82 million shares. the effect of stock split on stock price volatility is that an increase in stock price volatility after the stock split can be caused by price discreetness and bid ask spread percentage for low value shares. this study only uses management ownership variables, institutional ownership, csr, and profitability to determine the value of the company. referring to the conclusions above, the following suggestions are formulated: (1). for companies, it is advisable to pay attention to management ownership, institutional ownership, csr and profitability to increase company value. (2). for further research, it is expected to increase the number of research samples by expanding the type of company for example by adding various industry sectors in the indonesia stock exchange (idx), and extending the research period and adding variables such as leverage and size that can contribute to the value of the company so that conclusions can be drawn better. references adnantara, k. f.

nasuka, 2017). likewise, in the scope of sharia business and finance, the existence of maqashid sharia, becomes a means of synergizing between nash and market interests (situation), to ensure that market interests are the actual interests (maslahat), that economic interests are the interests of many communities (benefits), and that business interests are long-term interests according to the maqashid muamalah formulation (business or economy) (johan, et al., 2018). according to al-syatibi, as quoted by ibn asyur, also oni sahroni, that maqashid sharia is the maslahah or benefit and welfare of humanity both in the world and the hereafter. meanwhile, according to the scholars of ushul fiqh, defining maqashid sharia with the intended meaning and purpose in presenting law for the benefit of mankind (sahroini & karim, 2016; johan, et al., 2018). generally speaking, it can be concluded that the maqashid sharia is a concept to understand the intention and purpose of sharia values that implicitly put in the qur'an and hadith, as god almighty has set for mankind to achieve world prosperity (happiness) and the hereafter (mutakin, 2017; sulaeman, 2018). the implementation of maqashid sharia can be seen from the relation of maqashid sharia to the daily life of the society especially in the aspect of business (buying and selling). buying and selling is one type of economic transaction, islam as a religion of rahamatan lil ‘alamin (a mercy to all creation) is also discussed the things related to buying and selling transaction according to the provisions of shari'a (depkpos, 2018; zaki & cahya, 2015). it is not enough for academicians and practitioners of islamic business banking and finance institutions to only know about the muamalah fiqh and its implementation, but there is the more important thing, which is to understand the science of ushul fiqh (maqashid sharia) (ridwan, 2016). the religion scholars agree that ushul fiqh occupied a very important position in the study of sharia. according to imam al-syatibi (d.790 h), in the book al-muwafaqat, it is said that comprehend the study of ushul fiqh is something that is dharuri (very important and absolutely necessary), because through this study, we can find the content and purpose of each of the arguments of the shari'a (al-qur'an and hadith) as well as how to implement the sharia propositions in real life (ishaq, 1997; nasuka, 2017). according to imam al-amidi in the book alihkam fi ushulil ahkam, it is explained that a person who does not master the study of usul fiqh, then his religious knowledge is unreliable, because there is no way to learn the law of allah (sharia) except throughlearning the study of ushul fiqh (al-amidi, 1991; johan, et al., 2018). ibn asyur argued that the study of sharia maqasid should be a separate study without being associated with the study of ushul fiqh. however, the majority of scholars still classify it in ushul fiqh studies. the most important discussion in ushul fiqh among them is maqasid sharia. maqashid sharia is also called as the core in the study of ushul fiqh. therefore, maqashid sharia occupies a very important position in formulating islamic economics, creating islamic banking and financial products, even discussing many muamalah problems, such as muamalah al-ahwal al-syakhsiyah, shiasah, and qadhaiyah (yatimin, 2012; sulaeman, 2018; nasuka and subaidi, 2017). the scholars of ushul fiqh agreed that the study of maqashid sharia is the main requirement in doing jijtihad to address various issues of economic and financial life in this international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 130-145 132 challenging era. maqashid sharia is not only necessary to formulate macroeconomic policies (monetary, fiscal, public finance), but also to create sharia banking and financial products and other microeconomic theories. maqashid sharia is also important in making the regulation of islamic banking and islamic financial institutions that are currently in force in the community (mysharing, 2018; zaki & cahya, 2015). according to fathi al-daraini in his book al-fiqh al-islam al-muqarin ma'a al-mazahib, he said that the maqashid sharia is the main knowledge and has future projections in the framework of developing the theory of ushul fiqh (al-daraini, 1412 h/1992 m). therefore according to him maqashid sharia is a single or separate study. in this case, he is he agrees with the idea of ibn assyria (mawardi, 2010; rizky, 2017; thariqudin, ny). in conducting ijtihad, a mujtahid should master the study of maqashid sharia. ‘abdul wahhab khallaf in his book usul fiqh firmly stated that sharia texts cannot be understood well and correctly except it is studied by someone who understands the maqashid sharia and asbabun nuzul (the historical background of the verse) (wahab, t.th). most of the successes in extracting the law on islamic economics from the postulates of the koran and hadith, is largely determined by the study of maqashid sharia which can be examined from the arguments of tafshili (al-quran and sunnah) (mysharing, 2018; johan, et al., 2018). besides being an important factor in determining and creating sharia economic products, maqashid sharia can also play a dual role (social control and socio-economic instrument) to benefit all of the community. furthermore, maqashid sharia can provide philosophical and rational dimensions of islamic economic law products that are produced in the contemporary islamic economic ijtihad activities (rizky, 2017; nasuka and subaidi, 2017). maqashid sharia will provide a rational and substantial mindset in viewing islamic banking agreements and products. through the maqashid sharia approach, the sharia banking and financial products can develop very well and can respond to rapidly changing business developments (mysharing, 2018; johan, et al., 2018). in the acceleration of the development of islamic economics and finance in the contemporary era, there are many problems raising, such as hedging (swap, forward, options), margin during contruction (mdc), profit equalization reserve (per), trade finance and all of its problems, many of hybrid contracts cases, money market inter bank instrument, sukuk schemes, repos, syndicated financing of sharia banks or conventional loans, restructuring, indent property financing, ijarah maushufash fiz zimmah, hybrid take over and refinancing, forfeiting, overseas financing, unscured loan (kredit tanpa agunan, kta schemes), multipurpose financing, restructuring, indent property financing, ijarah maushufash fiz zimmah, hybrid take over and refinancing, forfeiting, overseas financing, kta schemes, multi-purpose financing, restructuring, indentional property financing, ijarah maushufash fiz zimmah, hybrid take over and refinancing, forfeiting, overseas financing, kta schemes, multipurpose financing, credit card design, ijarahmaushufashfizzimmah, hybrid take over and refinancing, forfeiting, overseas financing, kta schemes, multi-purpose financing, credit card design, ijarah maushufash fiz zimmah bargaining, net revenue sharing, gold installments, gold investment, as well as a number of new cases that continue to emerge (zaki, 2015; sulaeman, 2018). all cases and the efforts of ijtihad against the economic and financial complexity of sharia today that are constantly changing and developing require a diluted analysis of philosophical and substantive analysis contained in the concept of maqashid sharia (mysharing, 2018; johan, et al., 2018). without maqashid sharia, then the understanding of islamic economics, financial and islamic sharia will be narrow. it is difficult to develop and reduce negative doctrine that islam is incompatible with the advancement of time. without maqashid sharia, an expert in islamic 133 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 130-145 economics and practitioners will not be able to understand islamic economics well. without maqashid sharia, islamic banking and financial products, regulations, fatwas, fiscal and monetary policies, will lose their islamic substances. without maqashid sharia, the developing fiqh of muamalah and the regulation of financial institutions will be formulated rigidly. as a result, the development of banking and financial finance will be difficult and slow to develop. without an understanding of maqashid sharia, the supervisor of regulators will easily blame the truth of auditing islamic banks. without maqashid sharia, then the regulator (supervisor) will easily reject the innovative products that have been entirely met islamic requirement procedures. without the understanding of maqashid sharia, then the regulation about sharia psak (statement of financial accounting standards) will be ambiguous, rigid, and experienced a fatal error (zaki, 2015; febriadi, 2017; zaki & cahya, 2015). the essence of maqashid sharia will create the fiqh of muamalah which is elastic, flexible, vibrant and can always be in line with the current development (shalihun li kulli zaman wa makan) (yanti, 2016; nasuka & subaidi, 2017). the implementation of maqashid sharia will make islamic banking and micro islamic finance develop faster and creatively create new products so that they are not inferior to the products of a conventional bank. this can be seen in the growth of islamic business in malaysia and other countries (syafi'i, 2012; nasuka, 2017). this understanding of maqashid sharia starts from an understanding (mastery) of various disciplines, such as ushulfiqh, philosophy, tarikh tasyrifil muamalah, philosophy of islam, ulum al-quran and translation, ulum al-hadith, and mushtalah al-hadith, qawaid fiqh, rules of ushul fiqh, and rules of arabic language. therefore, knowledge of maqashid sharia become a very important requirement in conducting a contemporary sharia economic ijtihad (mysharing, 2018; johan, at.all., 2018). the growth of the economy and sharia business today can be seen increasingly rapidly, especially in indonesia. for example, the establishment of several islamic financial institutions, such as islamic banking, islamic insurance, islamic capital markets, islamic mutual funds, baitul mal wat tamwil, islamic cooperatives, islamic pawnshops and others (ramadhani, 2016). sharia economics and business are not only in the form of the above institutions, but also cover a very wide range of aspects, such as macro and microeconomics and other economic problems (dasuki, 2011; sulaeman, 2018). regarding the problems of islamic economy and business, so that developments remain in line with sharia principles, the involvement of islamic economic scholars becomes important, such as jijtihad providing solutions to financial-economic problems that arise both in the level of micro and macro, designing sharia contracts for the needs of business products in various sharia financial institutions to oversee and guarantee all sharia banking and financial products are conducted according to sharia law (agustianto, 2018). therefore, according to the opinion of the writer that the concept of maqashid sharia is very important to be implemented as a theory of study in sharia economics and business related to the current issue, so that the economic wheel in the midst of society is truly in accordance with the maqashid sharia as the expectations of all people human (dasuki, 2011). the main principles in the formulation of islamic economics and the formulation of fatwas and financial products are maslahah/benefit (agustianto, 2018; johan, et al., 2018). 2. research method this library research focuses on the urgency of hikmah maqashid in running islamic business. it uses descriptive analysis, which describing social actions towards the researched phenomena (hardijan, 2006). the writer uses juridical qualitative approach to collect descriptive data (soerjono, 1986). the data are divided into primary data, secondary data and international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 130-145 134 supporting data. in analyzing the data, the writer uses content analysis, which collects the data from books (manuscripts), articles, journals, magazines, newspapers, recording and other written sources related to the research. 3. results and discussions 3.1. maqashid sharia in islamic economics the implementation of the maqashid shari`ah is an elaboration of the great maqashid (the goal) namely hifz al-mal (preserve property) and fulfilling the purpose and mashlahah of properties. preserving and maintaining the intentions of these assets sometimes in terms of how to get it (min janibi al-wujud) or in terms of maintaining assets that are already owned (min janibi al-‘adam). hifzu al-mal is a group of rules in the field of muamalah, this method is translated by maqashid shari`ah amah (general purposes) and maqashid khassah (special purpose) also called maqashd juz'iyyah, which is very numerous and countless (general purposes) and maqashid khassah (special purpose) is also called maqashd juz'iyyah, which is very numerous and countless (general purposes) and maqashid khassah (special purpose) is also called maqashd juz'iyyah, which is very numerous and countless (sahroini and karim, 2016; sulaeman, 2018). maqashid khassah is the result of istiqra 'of the scholars towards the nash and the laws of shari'ah and results in certainty (qath'i) that this shari'a sets it as a goal that has both consequences and implications (raisuni, 2003). the following is an explanation of the application of maqashid amah and khassah in islamic economics, namely (nurhadi, 2018). 3.2. maqashid al-ammah (general purpose in economics and business) maqashid ammah in doing business or interact with other humans means that every agreement must be clear. every business agreement must be known by the contract parties so as not to cause disputes between them. to achieve this target, the maqashid sharia enforces tausiq (binding) provisions in muamalah maliah covenants such as the provision that every transaction must be recorded/noted (al-kitabah), witnessed (isyhad) and may be guaranteed (hamid, 2013; nasuka & subaidi, 2017). the discussed hifzu al-mal to is implemented with the provisions of taustiq (binding) in the contract of mu'amalah maliyah such as the stipulation that every transaction must be recorded (kitabah), witnessed (isyhad) and may be guaranteed by the parties of a voluntary agreement (hasani, 1416 h). limited knowledge about the technical dimensions of goods can be supported by believing certain standard provisions set by something authoritative. the standard of an item becomes a means to build equality between a seller and buyer. every agreement must be fair because this is maqashid ammah in doing business. among the fair principles applied in business are the responsibility of contract actors to fulfill their rights and responsibility, such as investing in good and professional ways, channeling them in a halal manner and fulfilling their property rights obligations (hamid, 2013; febriadi, 2017). among the means used by the shari'a to achieve a just goal are to give charity and not to waste property. based on this maqashid, there are a number of islamic provisions, including the messenger of allah forbid eating the meat of himar ahliyah (local donkey) because it is the provision of muslims in the khaibar war, also the messenger of allah forbiding food monopoly, as umar said: سقوقنا في حكرة meaning: "may not there is a monopoly in our market" (hasani, 1416 h; johan, et al., 2018). 135 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 130-145 every commitment must be in accordance with the agreement. it is a part of the maqashid ammah of business. allah swt says in surah al-maidah paragraph 1 (depag, 2015). this paragraph emphasizes the obligation to fulfill every agreement in the contract, including business contracts. therefore each contract contains the rights and obligations of each party. every business agreement will be successfully determined by the commitment of the parties in fulfilling each agreement of the business contractb (hasani, 1416 h). every law protects ownership rights, including the business maqashid. the scholars agree that unjustly taking other people's property is forbidden. therefore, allah almighty gives punishment for every crime against property (ta'addi ala amwal) (sahroini & karim, 2016; nasuka, 2017). stuart p. green argues that an ordinary crime is closely related to the assessment of common-sense morality (nurhadi, 2018; sulaeman, 2018). insider trading should be criminalized because it is based on cheating behavior. receiving or requesting bribes must be criminalized because it is based on disloyalty behavior. fraud and perjury have subtle differences with our moral norms towards deception and lying (bisnia, 2007; sahroini & karim, 2016; zaki & cahya, 2015). there are two witnesses to the ta'adudi (crime), namely: a predetermined sentence (had) such as a penalty against theft (sariq). the second is ta'zir punishment (a sentence that has not yet been determined) (hamid, 2013). each agreement contract must be following sharia law as the principal of the business maqashid. in the theory of the contract, the transfer of property rights (tamlik) there are five objectives (maqashid sharia) in terms of whether a contract is valid or not. the five maqashid are distribution (rawaj), clear (wudhuh), mantained (hifz), stable (tsabat) and fair (‘adl) (hamid, 2014; sahroini and karim, 2016). each property must be distributed. this maqashid is very ammah, as the property must be distributed and can be enjoyed by all levels of society in the form of consumption or distribution (nurhadi, 2018). there are several means used to achieve this (tadawul) distribution objective which involves: (sahroini & karim, 2016; johan, et al., 2018): 1). islam requires a contract, both a business contract (mua'wadhah) or a social contract (tabarru') so that each properties can change hands from one party to another. 2). islam allows contracts that contain a bit of garar such as the salam contract as rikhsah (relief) so that assets can be transferred with this contract. 3). islam prescribes agreements that are luzum without choice unless they agreed upon the conditions in the contract. 4). islam forbids the hoarding of property and money because if money is not in circulation, it will cause disruption of financial, commercial and social balance, as allah says in surah al-hasyar verse 7, which means: any properties obtained from the spoils of war (fai’) given by allah to his messenger (from property) who comes from the inhabitants of the cities is for allah, for the apostles, relatives, orphans, the poor and those who travel, so that the property does not circulate among the rich people. what the prophet gave you, then accept it and leave what he forbids, and fear allah. verily, allah is severely punished (depag, 2015). islam forbids any form of riba practice because it eliminates the sympathy attitude of the riba actors towards others and because all the purpose is to get purpose from so many people, including from the property of poor people. this is contrary to islamic law in building togetherness based on islamic brotherhood (ukhwah islamiyah) (hamid, 2013). if comparing the purpose of forbidden riba and permissibility of investment and gain profits, then it can be concluded that the purpose of prohibiting riba is to avoid laziness in investing assets and cooperation in world affairs (mu'amalah) (hasani, 1416 h). 6). islam forbids gambling because it is harmful to the production in the community, paralyzing human resources so that investment objectives are not achieved because the property is concentrated only in the hands of gamblers. this can be a dangerous distribution and does not create any production including international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 130-145 136 moral implications such as hostility and envy (sahroini & karim, 2016). 7). fulfilling the desire for property by facilitating the legal provisions related to the practice of muamalah (human interaction), with the method of al-ashlu fi al-mu'amalah al-ibahah. the element of it is to transfer ownership, eliminate it, take it (handover), combine it, make an agreement or allow it (hamid, 2013; johan, et al., 2018). every servant is obliged to work and produce. this is a maqashid that is very urgent for the benefit of muslims. among maqashid sharia, it is the obligation to work and produce (nurhadi, 2018; nasuka and subaidi, 2017). this obligation is based on istiqra 'to the proposition that gives a definite answer explained that work and production is mandatory, according to the word of allah swt surah al-mulk verse 15 which means: he is the one who made the earth easy for you, so walk in all directions and eat some of your provision from him. and only to him you will be (returned after) resurrected (depag, 2015). the provisions of the shari'ah require working to obtain property or earn money then to make a living and manage their ownership so that their product can be distributed for profit. the right of ownership in the shari'a is as long as it is obtain through the halal work. the ownership objects that are regulated in the shari'a are: 1). having physical goods (milk al-yad) and 2). having benefits (sahroini and karim, 2016; nasuka, 2017). therefore, it is forbidden to hinder and make it difficult for the owner of the goods to manage and utilize their goods because it is against the maqashid sharia to protect one's ownership rights from legal (masyru') work (hamid, 2014; johan, et al., 2018). each servant must invest property and invest with the mudharabah contract. property investment is one of the purpose set by god as an effort to find and develop wealth to make a profit. the scholars agree that investment in legal assets is mandatory, as long as in the sharia corridor, both individuals and groups (sahroini and karim, 2016). working is mandatory to create maqashid hifzu al-mal min janib al-wujuh (protecting the interests of properties from the aspect of providing assets). 2). using profits or results following the shari'a both for world spending or the afterlife without exaggeration and waste. 3). if there is an excess of assets after being used up, funds must be sought not to be stockpiled because it is prohibited in the shari'a, both arguing with sharia nashs and maqashid sharia, which is to develop properties and prepare the strength of the ummah to deal with enemies (hamid, 2014; febriadi, 2017). in the book of ihya ‘ulumuddin, imam ghazali condemns people who like to hoard properties without being rotated in the real sector (nurhadi, 2018). by his words (adiwarman, 2007; gozali, t.th): which means: if someone hoard dinars and dirhams, it is a sin, because these actions will not be useful for themselves and others. while it is supposed to be beneficial among people as a form of human interaction business (muamalah) (sahroini & karim, 2016). maqashid syariah mudharabah can be seen in two ways, namely: 1). if someone has a property and can manage it, the benefits for themselves by also giving charity to the poor. all business risks are borne by themselves. 2). if unable to manage it, it is prescribed to cooperate or syirkah which aims to help others and strengthen the relationship of each other (hamid, 2014; nasuka, 2017). the most important thing is the cause and effect of a business process is the inevitability of the business actors and the parties who make a transaction and are determined to make collaboration (karim and sahroni, 2015; boug, n.y; sahroini & karim, 2016). every person who does business must balance the benefits and risks (al-kharaj bi adhdhaman). this business theory is a principle in muamalat at the level of qath'i (sure) through the arguments of the nashs and istiqra ', based on the rule of ushul and the fatwa of ijthad of the scholars. rasulullah saw forbide selling goods that are not yet a become a property or 137 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 130-145 responsibility of a person, and food that has not been handed over (taqabud) (nurhadi, 2018; johan, et al., 2018). the cooperation agreement between the investor and the recipient of capital must match profits and risks under any circumstances. the application of the principle of al-kharaj addhaman, in this case, is very logical and clear. kharaj is profit while dhaman is responsibility for loss/damage. both parties must bring mutual benefits and maintain responsibility for losses (sahroini & karim, 2016; nasuka & subaidi, 2017). in fact, the property is not damaged and business does not lose, while risk in doing business is real, both parties have the right to take kharaj ad-dhaman (hamid, 2014). in the above qard agreement there are only two choices: choosing dhaman by giving loan qard alhasan without interest, and choosing kharaj by surrendering the funds like venture capital, so he is entitled to profit and bears the risk of loss (hamid, 2014; sulaeman, 2018). 3.3. maqashid al-khassah (special purpose in economics and business) maqashid khassah in economics and business include maqashid prohibiting riba, maqashid of the difference between buying and selling riba, maqashid prohibition of riba qardh, maqashid prohibition maisir, maqashid khiyar in buying and selling maqashid of giving charity/zakat. maqashid prohibits riba buyu'. the scholars have differents opinion regarding its legal status. the difference lies in the illat of ribawi goods (karim and sahroni, 2015). some say this illat riba is a currency (yunus, 2001; fatah, 2000), some are food (yunus: 2013; fatah, 2000), buyu' is riba arising from the exchange of similar goods of different quality or quantity or different the time of delivery (not cash), this kind of riba was formerly called riba fadl (nurhadi, 2018). the forbidden riba has the purpose (hikmah / maqashid) that is to avoid gharar in buying and selling transactions because this sale or exchange contains gharar, namely injustice for both parties for the value of each item exchanged. this will cause injustice, also lead to conflict (adiwaraman, 2004). another maqashid is that money is not made into a commodity that is traded so that money produce money and does not produce goods, this is very much in accordance with the economic maqashid farthest from gharar and riba (sahroini & karim, 2016; johan, et al., 2018). maqashid prohibits the practice of talaqqi rukban. this prohibition is in accordance with the hadith of rasullulah which means: the prophet forbids the practice of talaqqi rukban (bukhari, 38). ruban means the party who imports the goods, while talaqqi is the party who encounters the seller of the commodity and buys it from them before the seller enters the market . the wisdom of the ban on talaqqi rukban is that supply and demand continue to meet, resulting in a healthy market and a fair price. whereas talaqqi rukban, on the other hand, will not meet supply and demand, then there will be an unhealthy market and unfair prices (sahroini & karim, 2016; zaki & cahya, 2015). maqashid prohibits gharar. gharar is a trait in muamalah which results in part of its principle becomes uncertain (mastur al-qaqibah) (aaoifi, 2010). in its implementation that the two parties in the transaction do not have certainty of the goods that are the object of the transaction both related to quality, quantity of price and time of delivery of goods. so, the second party is disadvantaged (karim and sahroni, 2015). gharar occurs when changing a certain thing to be uncertain (adiwarman, 2011). gharar is haram, a transaction containing gharar also included, the prophet said that means: the prophet forbids the sale and purchase containing gharar (muslim: 156; bukhari: 264). imam nawawi explained that the hadith above international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 130-145 138 explained the important principle in chapter muamalah (business) which manages unlimited problems (bahrain, 2010; nasuka, 2017). the examples of buying and selling gharar are selling quantity. it is a practice of selling calves in the womb, buying and selling quantities ie ijon, gharar prices ie buying and selling houses 1 unit margin of 20% or 2 units 40% and buying and selling pending ie selling lost items (adiwarman, 2011; johan, et al., 2018; nasuka & subaidi, 2017). this can lead to disputes and hostility. maqashid prohibits gharar means that there are no parties to the contract who are disadvantaged because they do not get their rights and there is no dispute and hostility (rahman, 1996; sahroini & karim, 2016). this is following economic theory, namely an equitable agreement. the classic example in this problem is reducing scales and measurements and explaining undue quality/deception (sahroini & karim, 2016; sulaeman, 2018). maqashid hadis gharar (abdul, 1992). this is listed in the hadith of the holy prophet as follows, which means: the prophet forbade the buying and selling of gharar and al-hashah (muslim, 1513). we intellectually understand this hadith, so some actual trading practices may be forbidden such as selling grain in the ground, whereas gharar here is on goods that can be counted (raisuni, 2003; febriadi, 2017). maqashid prohibited ba'i al-inah. this is in accordance with the hadith of the holy prophet, which means: ibn umar narrated, that the prophet said: if a person is really stingy of dinar and dirham, buying and selling 'inah, following the tails of the cows and leaving jihad in the way of allah, then allah will send calamity and will not withdraw it unless they recommit themselves to their religion (hr. ahmad, 4593). the prohibition has maqashid and the wisdom of avoiding the hajani ribawi transaction (manipulation) to do the forbidden practice of riba or practice savings and loans interest with the sale and purchase mode (bahrain, 2010; adiwarman, 2011; sahroini and karim, 2016; karim and sahroni, 2015). maqashid khilafiyah ba'i al-‘inah. in this matter, there are several different opinions from the scholars. the majority of scholars forbid it, such as sahabat, tabiin, mazhan hanafiyah, malikiyah and hanabilah (nurhadi, 2018). al-marghinani in the hanafi school explains the forbidden ba'i al-inah (marginani, 2017), ad-dardiri maliki scholars also hold the same opinion (shawi, n.y). likewise al-khiraqi, the hambali scholars forbade this (qudamah, n.y). whereas some syafiiyah fuqaha reinforces ba'i al-inah, they argued with the ijtihad principle method, that is, in muamalah, what is seen is zhahir and not intention (al-ibratu bil alfazd la bil maqashid). this is also reasonable with the expression of the shafi'ite imam in al-umm: ونكل we surrender their intentions to allah swt" (nurhadi, 2018). thus if it is not" هللا الي قصودهم justified by the shafi'i school it is also justified because the intention of the buyer is money not goods. the scholars forbid it because this is an attempt to halt the practice of interest-bearing loans (nurhadi, 2018; nasuka, 2017). maqashid of the prohibition of ba'i al-inah is to avoid ribawi hilal transactions (manipulation) to do riba in the practice of savings and loans, this has been explained in the aaoifi standard (karim & sahroni, 2015). maqashid prohibition of buying and selling receivables (ba'i kali bi al-kali) is ba'i ad-dain bi ad-dain or ba'i nasi’ah bi an-nasi’ah. it means selling credit (not cash) at a non-cash price, all prices and objects of the transactions are non-cash transactions (karim and sahroni, 2015). the evidence which is based on this is the hadith of the prophet (pbuh) which means: ibn umar (may allah be pleased with him) said rasulullah saw said that he forbade the sale and purchase of receivables at a non-cash price (hr. daruqutniy: 3061; hakim: 2343). ijma 'ulama agreed that based on the hadith forbidding bai al-kali bil al-kali and the contract becomes fasid/damaged. maqashid from the prohibition of not cash into cash in order to achieve the purpose of buying 139 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 130-145 and selling to get money and goods (qudamah, t.th; syaukani, t.th; manzur, t.th; rusdy, t.th; zaki & cahya, 2015). maqashid khilafiyah ba'i ad-dain lighairi al-madin bi tsamanin hal. the scholars have different opinions about the law. the religious scholars (the opinion of the diligent hanfiyah, syaf'iyah, hanbilah & zhahiriyah) the law is absolutely forbidden both the buying and selling of salam or others (nurhadi, 2018; nasuka and subaidi, 2017). according to hanfiyah the receivables are mal hukmi which cannot be handed over to the seller (al-misri, 2001; hammad, 2001; faddad, 1421h; sattar, 2004; sahroini & karim, 2016). regarding the prohibition, the scholars based on the hadith of the prophet (s) of the nasa'i abu daud adan ahmad and alhakim, as well as the decisions of the islamic jurisprudence organization of the oic and nadwah al-baraka (nadwah, 2006; sulaeman, 2018). meanwhile, malikiyah believed that the contract happened to ribawi goods. it must fulfill the requirements of buying and selling ribawi goods in order to avoid the riba of buying and selling (buyu' riba). the credit must be paid in cash. if you buy salam, then the transaction must not be in the same currency. if the same sex is not allowed with the same amount and goods other than money (sahroini & karim, 2016). the opinion of imam ahmad (in one narration), one of the opinions of syafiiyah, ibn taimiyah and ibn qayyim argues that this transaction is absolutely permissible, both buying and selling salam or others. in this case the author is more likely to follow the opinions that allow it (sahroini & karim, 2016; johan, et.all., 2018). maqashid prohibition of ikhtikar (suwikyo, 2015). the definition of the syafii and hambali is to hoard goods that have been purchased when prices are increase to sell them at a higher price when needed by residents or many people (karim & sahroni, 2015; sahroini & karim, 2016). operationally the monopoly or ihtikar (manipulation of market in supply) is a seller or producer reducing the supply of product prices to rise. ihtikar is usually done by making entry barriers that is preventing the seller or other producers from entering the market and he is the solo player in the market (monopoly) (syarbaini, n.y). monopoly causes prices to become expensive, because the amount of goods is small and is controlled by monopolists, which can also reduce the production needed by consumers or the general public, this violates the benefits and also being prohibited (team iiit, 1997). in this case umar bin kahttab had banned monopoly acts like this, which is سوقنا في حكرة ال meaning (nurhadi, 2018): there should be no monopoly in our market (hasani, 1416 h). because it is very dangerous. the scholars like ibn qayyim explained, that this responsibility belonged to the ruling power at the time, in order to intervene in monopolists selling goods needed by the general public so that the market price would stabilize (team iiit, 1997; sahroini & karim, 2016; sulaeman, 2018). maqashid prohibition of ba'i najasiy. it is a prohibition of market manipulation in demand, that is if a producer (buyer) creates a fake demand as if there is a lot of demand for a product so that the selling price of the product rises. for example in the stock market, forex market and others. in a variety of ways such as issues, orders, and others (sahroini & karim, 2016). maqashid ban bai najasi is one mode of deception in business that harms other business partners, damages market prices and causes hostility between market participants (sahroini & karim, 2016; febriadi, 2017). maqashid ba'i atain fi bai’ah (two in one). this is a condition where a transaction is enclosed by two contracts at once, resulting in uncertainty (gharar) regarding which contract should be used (valid). in fiqh studies it is called baiatain fi baiah (karim & sahroni, 2015; sahroini and karim, 2016; nasuka, 2017). this prohibition is in accordance with the hadith of the prophet (pbuh) which means: from abu hurairah, he said, the prophet actually forbade two contracts in one contract (hr. tirmizi). according to nazih hammad, the substance of the international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 130-145 140 practice of two in one is isythirat aqdin fi aqdin or do one contract with two contracts or not with a contract (bahrain, 2010). the terms of the first contract make it uncertain (gharar) including the price of goods becomes unclear, the profit will become unclear (bahrain, 2010). this contract contains ta'alluq (the contract is hanging/uncertain) because the two contracts are interrelated, then one contract depends on the other contract (sahroini and karim, 2016; nasuka & subaidi, 2017). maqashid prohibited bribery (risywah). this prohibition is based on the qur'anic text and the hadith in surah an-nisa verse 29 (suwikyo, 2015), which means: o you who have believed, do not take your neighbor's wealth by way of vanity, except by the way of trade that applies with equal love among you. and do not kill yourself; truly allah is the most merciful to you (depag, 2015). the word trading which comes from the word trade, is very broad in meaning, all buying and selling, leasing, importing and exporting, wages for wages, and all of activities which give rise to the circulation of property including that in the commercial sector (hamka, 1983; johan, et al., 2018). what is permissible in consuming the property of others is by trading in a "good pleasure" (good fo each other) relationship between you (both parties). although willingness is something that is hidden in the heart, but the indicators and signs can be seen. ijab and qabul, or whatever is known in customs as handover are forms used by law to show willingness (nurhadi, 2018). based on this verse, imam syafii argues that buying and selling is not legal according to the shari'a but if there is accompanied by words that signify agreement, whereas according to imam malik, abu hanifah, and imam ahmad it is sufficient to handover the goods between each other because such actions can already show or signify mutual agreement (bahreisy, et al, 1990; johan, et al., 2018). the scholars have different opinions regarding to what extent the good pleasure can be measured. one group said that the perfect effect of willingness to both parties was after they parted after the contract. according to syaukani, what was counted as buying and selling was the good pleasure, with willingness, but not necessarily with words, even if actions and gestures that have shown, then it is sufficient. while imam syafii and imam hanafi require the contract as proof of good pleasure (halim, 2006). the ridha is a hidden action that cannot be seen, so that it necessary to show the sign of ridha through the contract (halim, 2006; sulaeman, 2018). the sura surah an-nisa 29 above is confirmed in the hadith of the prophet said from ibnu. umar ra, which means: narrated from ibn umar, he said the messenger of allah condemned the perpetrators of bribery and recipients of bribes (hr. abu daud; tirmizi; ibnu majah; hakim; ahmad). the riswah is an action of giving something to another party to get something that is not his right (saqar, 1994), the essence of riswah is to justify the means to get something (wealth or position) that is desired (lust) even though it has to wrong others. in general, these risks are in the form of doing something that is prohibited by applicable law or to speed up getting something that should be obtained later (takes time) (sahroini & karim, 2016). the maqashid behind the prohibition of riswah is so that everyone gets their rights, wages, achievements, according to their work, productivity, real contribution and real charity. another maqashid is that every work is done in an ihsan (professional) manner based on his ability. it also aims to prohibit everyone from idling, usually the lazy riswah perpetrators at work (sahroini & karim, 2016). the company manager doing riswah is a person who knows that he does not have the skills and ability to assume the position, he can only get a position this is by giving bribes to certain parties to get the position (al-misri, 2001: qardawi, 1994; nasuka & subaidi, 2017). giving something to someone in order to avoid being harmed by himself, this is permissible (qardawi, 1994). giving voluntarily without being promised and required (sahroini & karim, 2016; zaki & cahya, 2015). 141 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 130-145 maqashid khilafiyah in the management of non-halal funds. the scholars have different opinions about the recipient and non-halal objects or parties, which are: (nurhadi, 2018; nasuka, 2017): 1). the majority of scholars believe that non-halal funds are only for public facilities (al-mashalih al-ammah) such as the construction of highways, toilets, clinic, security post, bridges and others. 2). other scholars such as yusuf al-qardawi and al-qurrah said that non-halal funds may be channeled to all social needs (seventh al-khair), both public and nonpublic facilities such as poor consumptions including community empowerment programs (karim & sahroni, 2015). the opinion above is based on the proposition of nash and maqashid, namely; 1). mashlahat, which is non-halal fund is the public property not belonging to a particular person, it may be channeled to the poor and those who need them and non-halal funds for their owners and lawful for the recipient, both the poor, social institutions, educational institutions and others, both of which are opinions yusuf qardawi. 2). aaoifi standards, haram for their owners, are not permitted to be used, either to pay taxes or for other needs, even in a hilah way (bahrain, 2010). furthermore, in accordance with the method of fiqh, which means: any income that cannot be owned, then the income cannot be given to others (sahroini & karim, 2016). maqashid forbids setting the price (tas'ir). rasullulah saw forbidding to set the price as the hadith, which means: "people say:" o messenger of god, prices begin to be so expensive. set the price for us! "the messenger of allah said," indeed, allah is the one who set the price, who provide you wealth, and i truly hope to meet alah in the condition that none of you are seeking (recompense from) me for an injustice involving blood or wealth "(hr. abu daud; ibn majah). malikiyah interprets this hadith based on benefit, which is to set prices to protect the interests of traders who sell their goods in accordance with the rules of supply and demand. then the price determination for them is the real injustice (hamid, 2014; johan. et. all, 2018). maqashid determines the size and the scales (suwikyo, 2015). rasulullah saw explained the rules of the determination of the size and scales in a hadith narrated by abu daud which means; "the measurement of the scale is the scale of the makkah expert, and the size of the measure is the measurement of the madinah expert" (hr. abu daud). the target of this hadith is to equate the standard scales and measurements with a valid measure, using other measurements such as the size of the kilogram as a reference for the scales (qardawi, 1994; sulaeman, 2018). maqashid contracts in fiqh. muhyiddin ahmad said, that the purpose of the contract varies according to its type, the purpose of the contract is a pillar of the building of a contract, so that with the existence of the contract the purpose is achieved. therefore, goals are important because these will affect certain implications (dimyauddin, 2010; nasuka, 2017). the purpose of the contract will be different for each different contracts. for the sale and purchase agreement, the purpose of the contract is to transfer ownership of the goods to the buyer by submitting the sale price. in an ijarah agreement (leasing), the purpose is the transfer of ownership of the value of the benefits of the goods in the presence of rental wages. the motive owned by a person does not affect the contract building. the contract will remain valid as long as the motives that are contrary to the syara 'are not expressed verbally in the procession of the contract (dimyauddin, 2010). then all financial transactions are in accordance with the contract and its purpose in order to create and maintain justice between the two contract parties (sahroini & karim, 2016; zaki & cahya, 2015). maqashid contract of sale and purchase. this contract is allowed in islamic law to meet the buyer's intention to have goods and services also fulfill the seller's desire to gain profit (sahroini & karim, 2016; febriadi, 2017). maqashid presents witnesses in transactions, this is international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 130-145 142 for the benefit of imam ghazali in interpreting verse 282 surah al-baqarah verse 282 (depag, 2015) is that if syar'i does not require a witness to be fair, then we will still require it because syar'i enforces the syahadat which is istbut al-huquq (assigning one's rights) and huquq cannot be determined by a fasiq person (nurhadi, 2018; nasuka & subaidi, 2017). maqashid sharia records the debts. allah says in surah al-baqarah (2) verse 282, which reads, which means: o you who have believed, when you contract a debt for a specified term,write it down (depag, 2015). prohibition of taking advantage through riba and the orders of charity can give the impression that the qur'an does not sympathize with people who store the property or hoard it (nurhadi, 2018). that wrong impression is erased through this verse, which essentially instructs to preserve property by writing even a small amount of debt and witnessing it. if that impression were true, surely there would not have been such detailed demands regarding the preservation and writing of the number of debts (sihab, 2005). sufyan ats-tsauri narrated from ibn abbas, "this verse was revealed to be related to the matter of salam (lend the money) until a certain time. god said, "you should write it" is a command from allah to record an archive. the command here is a guidance, not mandatory (rifai, 1999). this verse states that the debt and non-cash business transactions are carried out in a good way so as not to cause slander, by writing or recording amounts of debts and accompanied by thirdparty witnesses (oni & karim, 2016). the record of maqashid on the debt were in the opinion of ibn assyria. he commented on the differences in scholars regarding the law of recording debts, some consider sunnah and some require it. the aim is to bind the parties to the contract and anticipate hostilities (khusumah) that may occur due to unrecorded debts that caused a person to fail to pay (hasani, 1416 h; johan. et. all, 2018). maqashid forbids wasting properties. this is contained in the qur'an surah al-isra verses 26-27, as follows, which means: 26. and give to families who are close to their rights, to the poor and those who are on the way of their journey and do not waste (your possessions) excessively. in fact, the spenders are devils and the devils are very disbelievers to their lord (depag, 2015). the essence of surah al-isra 'verses 26-27 ordered the obligation to fulfill the rights of close family, poor people and people who are on the journey. the verse stipulates that they must provide assistance, help and fulfill their basic needs, and the verse prohibits wasting properties. then the purpose of this prohibition is not to waste property, the existence of assets will be protected and can be distributed according to the above recommendations (hasani, 1416 h; nasuka, 2017). the maqashid is to spend properties fairly, and make the efficient and smart consumption of the property, so those excess assets can be used for infaq and charity in the way of god (business, n.y; sulaeman, 2018). maqashid orders to leave buying and selling transactions when the friday prayer is approaching. this is explained by allah swt, in the qur'an surah al-jumu'ah verse 9 (nurhadi, 2018: 80), which means: o believers, when called to perform friday prayers, then hasten to remember allah and leave the transaction of buying and selling. that is better for you if you understand (ministry of religion, 2015). the above fact is not actually prohibiting the substance of buying and selling, only ihtiyati caused by buying and selling transaction that enable a person to come late to the prayer so that their praying process is not perfect or he might skip it due to the enjoyment of doing business (raisuni, 2003; hasani, 1416 h; nasuka & subaidi, 2017, oni & karim, 2016; johan. et. all, 2018) . maqashid obligation to give zakat (charity). allah almighty says in surah at-taubah verse 103, which means: take zakat from some of their properties, through this zakat, you cleanse and purify them and also pray for them. verily, your prayers (become) peace of mind for them. and allah is all-hearing, all-knowing (depag, 2015; al-qatthan, 1964; shaykh, n.y). these words 143 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 130-145 emphasize that zakat is prescribed for a specific purpose, which is to get used to giving charity (sahroini & karim, 2016; sulaeman, 2018). from the explanation above, the importance of maqashid sharia to be the operational basis of islamic economic institutions is to lie on the benefit and competitiveness of the agreement between transaction actors. it can be done by considering on the benefit of the muktabarah or goodness which supported by sharia or the proposition, either the general or specifically or qias proposition (jali and khafi). for example is the contract of bai innah, bai dayan, tawaruk, and others which is in malaysia, it is justified and allowed, but in indonesia it is still under debate. 4. conclusion the implementation of maqashid shari'a in the operation of islamic economic business is extremely needed. in human interaction (mu'amalah), the beneficial economic business becomes a key stage for the sustainability of the transaction. therefore, the implementation of maqashid shari'ah is actually an elaboration of the great maqashid (the purpose) which is called as hifzu al-mal (preservation of property) and fulfilling the purpose and mashlahah of the properties. sometimes, preserving and maintaining the purpose of these assets here are in terms of the way to get it (min janibi al-wujud) or in terms of maintaining assets that are already our possession (min janibi al-‘adam). hifzu al-mal is a group of methods in the field of muamalah, this method is translated by maqashid syari`ah ammah (general purposes) and maqashid khassah (specific purpose) also called as maqashd juz'iyyah which is very numerous and countless. maqashid khassah is the result of istiqra' of scholars towards the nash and the laws of shari'ah which results in certainty (qath'i) that these laws are set as a goal that has consequences and implications. in the operational implementation of sharia economic business, the benefit must be following the shari'a proposition, which is the islamic economic business transaction. then it can be done by prioritizing the benefit according to sharia and the proposition as well as antaradhi minkum (mutual pleasure) that in line with the sharia agreement, although the law is still being debated. for example the bai adad dayan contract, bargaining contract and others. references abdullah, m. y.

identify the priority factors that being barrier to develop the practice of cash waqf in indonesia using analytic network process (anp) method. here is also offered some solutions for the problems identified. anp is a mathematic theory that allows one to deal systematically with dependence and feedback and that can capture and combine tangible and intangible factors by using ration scale. result show that the problems appeared in managing cash waqf in indonesia divided into 4 important aspects, there are: human resource aspect, trust aspect, system aspect, and sharia aspect. the rank for most priority problems to less priority based on the priority result are: 1) trust problems (whereas the most priority for this sub-criteria is donators’ lack of trust), 2) sharia problems (is unfulfilled waqf covenants), 3) human resource problems (is misappropriation of waqf funds, 4) system problems (is weak of management systems). strategies that can be built to develop the practice of cash waqf in indonesia based on the priorities are: 1) more computerized cash waqf management, 2) the development of waqf education institutions, 3) more comprehensive fund manager quality improvement, 4) transparency and accountability in every step. elaborating cash waqf development in indonesia using analytic network process aam slamet rusydiana and abrista devi researcher at smart indonesia, ibn khaldun university bogor, west java email: aamsmart@gmail.com mailto:aamsmart@gmail.com international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 1 1 32 1. introduction in the context of legislations in indonesia, waqf is defined specifically by determining the meeting point of various opinions of classical fiqh scholars. this is seen in the definition of waqf in law number 41 of year 2004 on waqf. waqf is defined as a waqif legal act to separate and/or hand part of one’s belongings to be used forever or for a certain period of time in accordance with his/her interests for worship or general welfare according to syariah. waqf is one of islamic laws related to people’s lives as ijtima’iyyah worship for public interest as a devotion to allah swt (fathurrohman, 2012). moreover, islam has institutional preparation to acquire fund so the poor can be independent. for this purpose, waqf can be done in addition to alms mandatory payment and other voluntary payment contributions. so if waqf is developed and managed productively, it can be an alternative for poverty reduction. according to muhammad (1997), the first person who introduced cash waqf in the history of islam was imam az-zufarin the 8th century ad, one of the scholars among the madhzab hanafiyyah. he states that cash waqf should be invested through mudharabah and the profits should be allocated for al-a’maalalkhairiyyah (social aid). this is supported by imam bukhari and ibnu syihaab azzuhri. imam bukhari states that ibnu syihaab az-zuhri allows dinar and dirham waqf by making those dinar and dirham as business capital, and the distributing the profit for waqf. this cash waqf is an issue discussed by fikih scholars. imam nawawi from the syafi’iyyah states: “and our friends are in dispute over waqf with money (dinar or dirham). people who can lend dinar and dirham, allow using waqf with them, and those who may not lend them, disallow waqf” (al-majmu’, 1980). fanani (2011) explains that az-zuhri makes a fatwa that people are encouraged to use dinar and dirham waqf for the construction of preaching, social and education facilities of muslims at that time. permission for cash waqf is stated by most madhzab hanafi and some scholars of madzhab syafi’i. according to muhammad (1997) among classical scholars, cash waqfwas an issue of khilafiyyah (disagreement). this started due to common tradition for people to only use their fixed assets for waqf. due to this tradition, some scholar were baffled when they heard the fatwa published by a friend of abu hanifah named muhammad abdullah al-anshaari who states that waqf in cash, such as dinar or dirham, or in measured commodities is allowed. what baffled them was the change of the main function of the money from being a medium of exchange into a medium of wakaf rental. al-anshari answers: “we invest the fund using mudharabah method, and the profit is given for charity. we sell the food, we distribute the price using mudharabah businesses then give the profit for charity”. hanfiyyah scholars suggest that cash waqf depends of local tradition. for example, if a place has a tradition or custom to pay waqf using money, then cash waqf in that location is legitimate, but illegitimate in other locations. however, the fatwa of hanfiyyah scholars on the permission of cash waqf is revealed in the fatwa of al-anshari, one of the students of the friend of abu hanifah, in which he states that it’s allowed to pay waqf using commodities which are weighed or dosed (muhammad, 1997). fanani (2011) states that the reasons for scholars to disallow cash waqf include, first, money of medium of exchange runs out after one use. moey can only be used spending it until it disappears. meanwhile the point of waqf is sustainability of the products of fixed capital, not running out after one use. therefore, the requirement of waqf properties is permanent and durable, not disposable. second, dinar and dirham are mediums of exchange used to facilitate trade, not to be taken advantage of and rented. international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 1 1 3 3 however the scholars who forbade cash waqf were refuted by scholars who allowed it, including, imam malik, imam ahmad bin hambal, and ibnu syihab az-zuhri (of thesyafi’iyyah). wahbah az-zuhaily states that hanafiyyah allows cash waqf because money substance which can be used as business capital is durable and has many benefits for people, which is by being businesses capital using mudharabah system. wadjdy and mursyid (2007) state that in making a fatwa which allows cash waqf indonesian ulama council (mui) considered the opinions of great scholars such as: imam az-zuhri who allows cash waqf by making money business capital the distributing the revenue to mauqufalaih. mutaqaddimiin ulama madzhab hanafi (classical scholar of the hanafiyyah) allows waqf as an exception based on istihsan bil ‘urf. abu tsaurof the syafi’iyyah narrates imam syafi’i that cash waqf is allowed (jaiz). according to cizakca (1998), history has proven that cash waqf has been popular since the time of bani mamluk and ottoman empire. even at the beginning of islam, cash waqf has been allowed by scholars. however, cash waqf started to have significant influence in 16thcentury ad in the ottoman empire. al-arnaut states that the development of istanbul can’t be separated from cash waqf which was wildly spread so that it became trade center. this is proven by historic documents found in 1464 ad, which a hundred years later became the habit of people of istanbul. according to cizakca (1998), m.a. manan revives the concept of cash waqf in social investment bank limited (sibl) in bangladesh which is conducted using cash wakaf cerificate instrument mechanism. he gives an alternative solution in solving the welfare crisis of muslims. compared with immobile property waqf, cash waqf has greater chance for modernization. cash waqf is waqf in the form of money which is then managed productively by nazhir, and the result is used for waqf. it means someone who wants to do cash waqf should invest, then the profits is used for waqf for mauquf alaih. in indonesia, bmm, indonesian waqf saving, and pkpu have tried to be the nazhirof cash waqf, but there are still many concepts and applications (fanani, 2011). studies on issues and solutions of waqf have been conducted by previous researchers. fathurrohman (2012) in his research titled “wakaf dan penanggulangan kemiskinan (studi kasus pengelolaan wakaf di kabupaten bandung jawa barat) states that there are many problems faced in managing waqf lands productively in bandung regency, such as some waqf lands are used as worship facilities and some has non-strategic locations. moreover, nazhir’s knowledge and understanding on waqf rules are lacking. in this condition, waqf lands are difficult to be managed productively in accordance with islamic laws and legislations in effect because the nazhir aren’t professional and has difficulty in funding the management expenses. waqf properties should be managed and developed productively as an alternative to help reduce poverty. meanwhile, shalih (2007)states that the role of waqf is important to maintain five pillars of maqashid syari’ah, which is maintaining religion (hifzhuddiin) so waqf plays a role in cleansing the heart of a waqif to worship allah only, and not to worship wealth. so, he’ll avoid stinginess and greed and grows a sense of togetherness and love which will bring him to hifzhunnafs (caring for the soul), hifzhunnasab (caring for the off springs), hifzhulmaal (caring for wealth), and hifzhul ‘aql (caring for reasons) by establishing foundations and educational institutions to spread and develop knowledge to produce a generation of muslims who are competent in all fields, whether syar’iorscience and other knowledge. the other research on waqf and cash waqf done by alias et.al (2015), aziz, et.al (2013, bahroni (2012), harun et.al (2016), aziz et.al (2014) and also pitchay et.al (2014). for the example, harun et.al (2016) thought that the high education in malaysia has to more explore the waqf benefit in the education so it can improve the high education to be better. waqf in the education sector is international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 1 1 34 also relevant with the result obtained from ahmad & hassan (2015). by using research object in ye education sector of sub-desert africa, ahmad & hassan (2015) thought how important the waqf role to pay education sector in africa. this reseach is the experience benchmark of al-azhar university in cairo egypt and some university in malaysia as the best example. it is also the same in gontor islamic boarding school in indonesia (bahroni, 2012). in practice, waqf in indonesia today faces complicated issues because it’s generally nonproductive waqf and the operational expense burdens the society. this illustrates a waqf condition which, using a term by mundzirqahf, is direct waqf instead of productive waqf. it means waqf gives direct services to the society, instead of waqf provided for production. in terms of cash waqf, waqf institutions don’t only act as religious rituality. they can touch humanitarian aspects by empowering their potential for public welfare to the best of their ability. therefore, the author was interested in studying cash waqf. although basically all waqf issues should be solved, it’s important to determine priority issues due to limited resources, whether funding resources, or time of waqf institutions or agencies. determining priority issues will also help waqf managers or nazhir in making strategic plans and making some priority agendas. based on the background above, the formulations of the problems are as follows: (1) what are priority issues of cash waqf fund management in indonesia based on anp method framework? (2) what are the solutions and strategies which can be offered for the issues based on priority scale? 2. methods this research is using primary data which is obtained by doing in-depth interview with experts and practitioners to understand the problem comprehensively. in order to synthesize the problems and make it in priority, second meeting (interview) with experts and practitioners is needed to complete pair-wise questionnaires. in order to choose respondents in this research is by considering their understanding about cash waqf development problems in indonesia. the amount of respondent consists of five experts and practitioners related to the topic discussed. there is no maximum or minimum quotes to choose respondent, the most important things to be considered is they must have good ability and good understanding about waqf and cash waqf problem. this study applies anp methodology in three steps. first, questionnaires and in-depth interviews with scholars, experts, practitioners, and regulators of waqf and cash waqf are conducted to fully comprehend the real problems and identify factors on the object. second, the results of the preliminary stage are used to develop an appropriate anp network and relevant questionnaires to glean the necessary data from experts and practitioners of cash waqf. third, anp analysis is applied to set priority alternative solutions and policy strategies in order to formulate optimal policy recommendations. analytic network process (anp) is a mathematic theory that allows one to deal systematically with dependence and feedback and that can capture and combine tangible and intangible factors by using ration scale. anp as a general theory of relative measurement is also used to derive composite priority ratio from individual ratio scale reflecting relative measurement of interconnected elements within control criteria. anp is a new approach in decision making process that provides general framework in treating decision without making any assumption about independency of elements in higher level from elements in lower level and about independency of elements within the same level. moreover, anp uses network without having to determine level as in hierarchy used in analytic hierarchy process (ahp), which is a starting point of anp. the main concept of anp international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 1 1 3 5 is influence while the main concept of ahp is preference. ahp with its dependency assumptions on clusters and elements are a special cases of anp (saaty, and vargas, 2006). for islamic economics research, the application of anp can refer to rusydiana and devi (2013). anp has relatively simple axioms which carefully restrict the scope of a problem: a. reciprocal. this axiom requires that if p c (e a , e b ) is a paired comparison of elements a and b with respect to their parent, element c, representing how many times more the element a possesses a property than does element b, then p c (e b , e a ) = 1/p c (e a , e b ). for instance, if a is 4 times larger than b, then b is one forth as large as a. b. homogeneity. this axiom states that the elements being compared should not differ by too much, else there will tend to be larger errors in judgment. the verbal scale of anp ranges from one to nine, or about an order of magnitude. c. this axiom states that individuals who have reasons for their beliefs should make sure that their ideas are adequately represented for the outcome to match these expectations. to construct anp model in phase 1, based on theoretical and empirical literature reviews of the problem, open questionnaires are asked to practitioners from various waqf and cash waqf experts from various institutions, universities, and consulting firms. follow-up is conducted through in-depth interviews to garner more detailed information to be able to comprehend the real problems. to quantify and measure the anp model or network in phase 2, pair-wise questionnaires are drawn based on final anp network designed in phase 1, which has been automatically formed in superdecisions software. to make sure that the questionnaires are worked effectively within allowable inconsistency, questionnaire testing is conducted to respondents. in this step, modification to questionnaires might be needed to improve effectiveness to gather appropriate data (ascarya, 2011). a. geometric mean in phase 3, results or synthesis of anp network in superdecisions software for each respondent can be generated. the data are then exported to excel worksheet to be manipulated to produce the desired outputs. to produce scientific ‘consensus’ results, geometric means of all respondents’ responses are calculated, re-inputted to anp network in superdecision software and resynthesized. this is the formula of geometric mean (ascarya, 2011): (3.1) b. rater agreement kendall’s coefficient of concordance can be calculated to assess the agreement among respondents. finally, interpretation of detailed (individual) and overall (geometric mean) results is completed to be able to draw conclusions and to propose policy recommendations. kendall’s coefficient of concordanceis identifying (w;0 < w≤ 1). w=1 show perfect agreement among respondent (ascarya, 2011). to calculate kendall’s (w), the first step is to give a rank for every answer and sum it. here are the formulas: (3.2) mean result from total ranking is: (3.3) international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 1 1 36 the sum of deviation quadratic (s) is calculated by the formula: (3.4) and then, kendall’s w deducted: (3.5) if w results is (w=1), we can conclude that all of respondents have perfect agreement, otherwise when the results is (w=0), it shows that there is no agreement among the respondent neither it has various answers (ascarya, 2011). 3. result and discussion based on the identification of indonesian cash waqf development problems,

statistical consensus of the experts and practitioners in relation to problems, solutions, and strategies in the development of cash waqf in indonesia. in figure 4.2below, the problem priority results showed that trust is the highest priority problem which has caused an arrested development of cash waqf in indonesia at 29.54%. this is followed by sharia problems (27.92%), human resource problems (24.37%), and system problems (18.14%) as the last priority. the results of the rater agreement for problem clusters show that w=0.053, which means that 5% of the respondents agree that the priority problem of the development of cash waqf in indonesia is trust. in contrast with the problem cluster, the solution which is the priority in the development of cash waqf in indonesia is the sharia aspect at 30.07%, followed by system (25.11%), human resources (23.56%), and finally trust (21.24%). the results for rater agreement for the solution cluster showed w=0.102, which means that 10.2% of the respondents agree that the priority solution for the development of cash waqf in indonesia is within the sharia aspect. the results of the problem and solution clusters can be seen in the figure below. figure 4.2.the results of the problem synthesis of problems and solutions in the development of cash waqf in indonesia based on the synthesis results of the experts’ opinion above, the most important problem in the development of cash waqf in indonesia is trust. this suggests that the waqf donators do not completely trust the waqf managers to manage their donations in the form of cash. some of the causes of the low trust in waqf managers could be the low quality of the waqf managers’ work performance, the occurrence of corruption and misappropriation of waqf funds, the lack of cash waqf education for donators and the divided sharia opinion of whether the cash waqf covenant is halal or not, etc. the results of this study also show that in order to overcome these problems, the main solution is to resolve the sharia aspect. this means that the cash waqf is no longer a dispute among ulema’ and the regulators have decided on the legality of the cash waqf covenant and formulated it in good regulations (laws), the donators’ trust would grow and they would donate their wealth in the form of cash waqf. international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 1 1 38 therefore, the discrepancy between the results of the priorities between problems and solutions are actually in harmony as the donators’ trust issue needs to be resolved by formulating a regulation or law pertaining to waqf, especially its sharia aspect. as a result, the donators would feel more assured that the waqf funds are allocated in a way that is clearly halal and trustworthy. for a more detailed explanation, the following figure will describe the results of the synthesis in each sub-criterion cluster. figure 4.3.the synthesis results of sub criteria in the development of cash waqf in indonesia international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 1 1 3 9 the figure above shows that the priority problem in the trust aspect is the lack of donators’

development of cash waqf in indonesia consist of 4 important aspects, i.e.: trust, human resources, system, and sharia. the analysis of the problems as a whole resulted in a priority list as follows: 1) trust problems (the first priority for the trust sub-criterion is the donators’ lack of trust), 2) sharia problems (unfulfilled waqf covenants), 3) human resource problems (misappropriation of waqf funds), and 4) system problems (the weaknesses in the managerial system). as for the solution priorities which are believed to be able to solve the problems in developing cash waqf are: 1) sharia solutions (changing the term “tabarru’” to “grant funds”, 2) system solutions (waqf regulation/law support), 3) human resource solutions (conducting training programs about waqf), and 4) trust solution (dissemination). the strategies that could be employed in developing cash waqf based on their ranks are: 1) computerization of waqf fund management, 2) development of waqf education institutions, 3) improvement in waqf fund management quality, and 4) transparency and accountability. some suggestions and recommendations that the author would like to make are: a. there should be a mutual agreement among decision-makers in supporting and promoting the effort to develop waqf institutions, especially those involved in cash waqf. b. this study should help broaden academic studies related to waqf. prioritizations of problems and solutions for the development of cash waqf should give accurate input for all the related parties of what problems should be dealt with first and which solution is best. c. further studies using a similar approach (anp) are suggested in order to increase the number of respondents from related parties which are considered as knowledgeable of waqf issues in indonesia. 5. references affandi, a. & diah. n., n.

thoughts on taxes. according to ibn khaldun, if the tax is too low, the government cannot carry out its function, if the tax is too high, the fiscal pressure becomes too strong, so the profits of traders and producers decrease and their incentives to work are lost. the purpose of this study is to find out the concept of tax management that is fair to ibn khaldun's perspective to build a modern economy that is just and to know how the relevance of taxes according to ibn khaldun with today's modern economy. this research method uses library research methods with a type of descriptive qualitative research. the data source consists of the muqaddimah as a primary source, work or theory that discusses primary material as a secondary and complementary material from primary and secondary materials as tertiary materials. the approach in this study is a historical and philosophical approach. the method of data collection uses existing literature and analysis of data used by analysis and hermeneutical content. this study concludes that the concept of a fair tax perspective ibn khaldun is a tax drawn from taxpayers in accordance with the ability of taxpayers to pay it and tax withdrawal money must be used properly and fairly, according to ibnu khaldun when the tax burden is light, people have incentives to try to be more active. therefore, the business world is developing, which leads to greater satisfaction among the people because of the low tax burden, while tax revenues will also increase, judging from the overall source of tax land, ibn khaldun's thinking about taxes is very relevant when applied to modern economic conditions nowadays, where the economic conditions are less stable, the condition of society is increasingly difficult, the prices of expensive necessities of life add to the difficulties of people's lives. international journal of islamic business and economics available at http://e-journal.iainpekalongan.ac.id/index.php/ijibec

economic thought in particular and world civilization in general, has been ignored by western scientists. western economic textbooks seldom mention the role of these muslims. according to chapra (2001), although some errors lie in the hands of muslims because they do not adequately articulate the contributions of muslims (karim, 2004: 8) understanding the islamic economic system is not enough only through technical socialization, but also the background and history of the development of the economic thinking of muslim scholars. the scarcity of the study of the history of economic thought in islam is very unfavorable because, throughout islamic history muslim thinkers and leaders have developed various economic ideas in such a way that they require us to regard them as the originators of the true islamic economy. islamic economics developed gradually as a field of interdisciplinary science which became the subject of the study of jurists, philosophers, philosophers, sociologists, and politicians, a number of prominent muslim scholars, such as abū yūsuf (182 h), al-syaibānī (189 h), abū ̒ ubaid (224 h), yaḥyā bin ʻumar (289 h), al-mawardī (450 h), al-ghazālī (505 h), ibn taimiyah (728 h), alsyāṭibī (790 h), ibn khaldun (808 h), and al-maqrizi (845 h), have contributed greatly to the survival and development of world affairs, especially economic thought, through an evolutionary process happened for centuries. the background of these muslim scholars was not a pure economy at that time, the classification of scientific disciplines had not been done yet they had expertise in various fields of science and perhaps this factor which caused them to carry out an interdisciplinary approach between economics and the fields of science they had previously studied. this approach they do not focus solely on economic variables alone, these scholars consider the welfare of mankind to be the end result of the long interaction of a number of economic factors and factors. other factors, such as moral, social, demographic, and politics (chapra, 2001: 150). the economic concept of muslim scholars is rooted in the law originating from the qur'an and the hadith of the prophet. it is the result of the interpretation of sharing islamic teachings that are eternal and universal, some of general commands and principles for individual actors and society, and encourage their people to use the power of reason they think. during the 14 centuries of islamic history, there have been continuous studies of various economic issues in the sharia view, most of these issues are buried in some islamic legal literature which certainly does not pay special attention to economic analysis, however, there are some records of muslim scholars who have discussed various specific economic issues in a long time, even among them showing a very interesting insight into economic analysis (chapra, 2001). islam as a true religion (dīn al-ḥaq) becomes a guide and guidance for mankind. the teachings of islam not only regulate the problem, but also the relationship between humans vertically, but also horizontally. islam regulates matters related to human life in mu’amalah, including trade transactions and other activities that support continuity and meaning of human life for peace and human happiness (kurniawan, 2014: 1). allah does not allow humans to mutually abuse one another, allah expressly forbids the act of wrongdoing on himself, also on all his creatures. among the forms of tyranny that are almost evenly distributed in our homeland is the implementation of a taxation system that is imposed on society in general, especially muslims, arguing that the property is returned for the benefit and common needs. while for those who have "money" in droves to ensure some of their property to get "severance pay" in the future. what an irony, the difference in the use of assets that are opposite. at present indonesian muslims are still subject to a double burden, namely paying zakat and paying taxes. this dualism of collection will in turn make it difficult for property owners or international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 73-89 75 income owners. with the enactment of law 38 of 1999 and law no. 17 of 2000, there is an explicit acknowledgment of the difference between zakat and tax. the enactment of the two laws clearly separates between the obligation to fulfill zakat for muslims and tax obligations for taxpayers. how should you put both of them? (maulidizen ahmad, 2017). taxes and zakat are two public fundraising instruments. tax is defined as an instrument of collecting funds used by the government to finance the running of the government. one of them is to finance some infrastructure projects and various facilities needed by the indonesian people. taxes can also be used for social purposes such as handling natural disasters. while zakat is defined as an instrument of collecting funds that have been established by allah in the quran for muslims with certain provisions of greatness. in contrast to taxes, the use of zakat funds is more limited. zakat can only be used for the benefit of eight groups (asnaf) in the quran. one of them is for the poor, in other words, zakat is only intended for social purposes (choudhury, 2018b). the tax collected by the state to its people based on arbitrariness, tyranny, not maslahah which in the span of the history of civilization known as muks, tribute, is collected based on zalim authority which is non-sharia tax which means that it is not in line with sharia principles. the jurists from the classical period, the middle to the modern era, have paid serious attention to taxation. among the several classical scientific ideas that discussed this matter was ibn khaldun. ibn khaldun has a clear vision of how political, economic, moral and social factors operate in a dynamic and interdependent pattern to encourage the development or overthrow of a society. in the process of discussing this issue, he made a number of important contributions to economic theory (chapra, 2001). ibn khaldun firmly emphasized the role of the private sector and the government in developing the economy. for him, the state is also an important factor in production. with its expenditure, the state is able to encourage production and with taxes it can reduce production. ibn khaldun has emphasized the principle of taxation very clearly in the muqaddimah. ibn khaldun concluded that "the most important factor for creating a favorable business atmosphere is to alleviate as much as possible the tax burden on business people, with the aim of promoting the business world by providing a guarantee of greater profits." this he explained as follows: "when the tax burden is light, people have incentives to try to be more active. therefore, the business world is developing, which results in greater satisfaction among the people because of the low tax burden, while tax revenues will also increase, judging from the overall source of tax land, he further said: as time goes on, the needs of the state will increase and the rate of taxation will also increase so revenues will be the same. if this increase is gradual, people will get used to this atmosphere, but in turn there will be a negative impact on incentives. the business world will suffer losses and decline, as well as tax revenue. thus, a prosperous economy at the beginning of the dynasty receives higher tax returns from a lower tax rate, while a depressed economy will receive less tax revenue due to a higher tax rate (amirabedini, 2014). he explained the reason by saying: "know that acting unfairly against other people's property will reduce their willingness to seek life and gain wealth and if the unwillingness to obtain life continues, they will stop working. the greater the pressure, the greater the impact on their work effort and if the people do not want to make a living and stop working, the market will stagnate and people's conditions will deteriorate. tax revenues will also decrease. therefore, he supports justice in taxation (chapra, 2001). ibn khaldun has contributed production theory, value theory, marketing theory, and cycle theory, the macroeconomic theory of taxes and public expenditure combined into a coherent general economic theory. based on some of the problems and thoughts described above, it seems that the history of islamic economic thought is very long and the theories in the islamic economic system are very diverse and also islamic economic 76 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 73-89 thinkers who contribute to the progress of the world economy, therefore, the authors feel interested in explore the treasures of classical scholarship of islamic economics thinkers, one of them is ibnu khaldun by conducting research on fair tax management according to economic thought of ibn khaldun (choudhury, 2018a). study of ibn khaldun’s economic has been actually studied, including mc caffrey (2014), mujahidin (2018), jaafar & ismail (2017), choudhury (2018), choudhury (2016), gusfahmi (2007), amirabedini (2014), maulidizen (2017). however, this studies did not specifically about tax in ibn khaldun’s perspective. this study will explain specifically the concept of tax management according to ibn khaldun’s perspective. the problems in this study are: (1) how is the concept of fair tax management on ibn khaldun's perspective? 2. how is the relevance of fair taxe management ibn khaldun's perspective with today's modern economy?. and the research objectives are: (1) to describe the concept of fair tax management on ibn khaldun's perspective, and (2). to analyze the relevance of the concept of fair tax management on ibn khaldun's perspective with today's modern economy. 2. research method this study is a library research, namely the authors do data mining by studying and studying a number of literature or library materials in the form of concepts, theories and others related to problems in research. the author explores knowledge more deeply by knowing the studies that have been conducted by other researchers. the author examines theories that have developed and are relevant and look for methods that are appropriate to the problems discussed with a qualitative approach. data collection method is a library survey and then analyzed by content analysis, and hermetic method. 3. results and discussions 3.1. biography of ibn khaldun ibn khaldun, whose full name is ʻabd al-raḥmān abū za’id wali al-dīn ibn khaldun was born from tunisia at the beginning of ramadan 732 h or coincides with may 27, 1332 ad based on his genealogy, ibn khaldun still had blood relations with wail bin hajar, one of the leading companions of the prophet. the family of ibn khaldun who came from hadramaut, yemen, is well-known as a family that is knowledgeable and up-to-date and occupies various high-ranking state positions (choudhury, 2018a). like the tradition that was developing at that time, ibn khaldun starting lessons from his own biological father. after that, he went to the leading scholars, such as abū ʻabd allāh muḥammad bin al-ʻarabī, abū al-ʻabbās aḥmad ibn al-qushshar, abū ̒ abd allāh muḥammad al-jiyānī, and abū ̒ abd allāh muḥammad ibn ibrahim al-abilī, to study various science, such as arabic grammar, hadith, jurisprudence, theology, logic, natural sciences, mathematics and astronomy. as a member of the aristocrat family, ibn khaldun was destined to occupy the highest position in the state administration and take part in almost all political disputes in north africa. but because of the influence of spanish culture that had been inherent in family life and himself for a century, ibn khaldun was never a "full member" from the community and still only be an outside observer from his world. at this time, the east world was ruled by an international aristocratic technocrat who grew art and science. if there are people who are members of this elite group, either because of their descent or education, they will be offered high ranks and important technical positions by kings and sultans who hire their services. along with revolutions and wars, salaries offered, and personal connections, they traveled from one city to another international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 73-89 77 following a conqueror or to escape punishment. ibnu khaldun is a member of this elite group, both because of heredity and education. in 1352 ad, when he was twenty years old, he had become a master of the seal and began his political career which continued until 1375 ad. his life journey varied. however, whether in prison or palace, in a state of rich or poor, being runaway or minister, he always takes part in political events in his day, and always keeps in touch with other scientists both from muslims, christians and jews. this indicates that ibn khaldun never stopped learning. from 1375 ad to 1378 ad, he retired at gal'a ibn salamah, a castle in oran province, and began writing world history with the muqaddimah as his first volume. in 1378 ad, because he wanted to find material from books in various large libraries, ibn khaldun obtained permission from the hafsid government to return to tunisia. there, until 1382 ad when he left for alexandria, he became a professor of law. the rest of his life was spent in cairo until he died on march 17, 1406 m (choudhury, 2018). men born in tunisia at 1 ramadan 732 h.27 may 1332 ad are known as historians and fathers of islamic sociology who memorized the koran from an early age. as an expert in islamic politics, he is also known as the father of islamic economics, because his thoughts on logical and far-reaching economic theory have been put forward before adam smith (17231790) and david ricardo (1772-1823) put forward economic theories. if we talk about a scholar on this one, it is indeed quite unique and amazing. he is the one who should be said to be the founder of social science. he was born and died during the holy month of ramadan. his full name is wali al-din ʻabd al-raḥmān bin muḥammad bin muḥammad ibn abī bakar muḥammad bin al-ḥasan who later famously referred to as ibn khaldun. dr. bryan s. turner, professor of sociology at the university of aberdeen, scotland in his article "the islamic review & arabic affairs" in the 1970s commented on the works of ibn khaldun. he stated, "the social and historical writings of ibn khaldun were the only one of the intellectual traditions which were accepted and recognized in the western world, especially the sociologists in english (who wrote his works in english)." very popular writing is the preamble (preliminary) which is the most important book about social science and is still being studied today. even this book has been translated in various languages (astuti, 2015) here ibn khaldun analyzes what is called 'social symptoms' with reasonable methods which we can see that he masters and understands these social symptoms. in the second and third chapters, he talks about the symptoms that distinguish between primitive society and modern society and how the system of government and political affairs in society. chapters two and four talk about the symptoms related to the way humans gather and explain the influence of the factors and geographical environment on these symptoms. chapters four and five, explain about the economy in individuals, communities and countries. while the sixth chapter talks about pedagogics, knowledge and knowledge and tools. it is truly amazing that a work in the 14th century completely explained things about sociology, history, economics, science and knowledge. he has explained the formation and disappearance of countries with historical theory. ibn khaldun strongly believes that basically countries stand dependent on the first generation (founding fathers) who have the determination and strength to establish a state. (kashif, ur rehman, & grigoriou, 2018) then, followed by the second generation who enjoyed the stability and prosperity left by the first generation. then, there will come a third generation that grows towards peace of pleasure, and is persuaded by material so that little by little the spiritual buildings are weakened and the country is destroyed, both due to internal weaknesses and because of the attack of strong external enemies who always monitor their weaknesses . there are some important notes from here that we can take lesson material from. that ibn khaldun upheld science and did not 78 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 73-89 underestimate history. he is a researcher who is relentless with a broad base of knowledge and knowledge. he always pays attention to community. apart from being an important official, he is also a productive writer. (kashif et al., 2018) even the imperfections in his writing are complete and renewed with time and patience needed. so that his work is truly quality, which is adapted to situations and conditions. because of his brilliant thoughts, ibn khaldun was seen as the foundation of the islamic social and political sciences. the basic education of the koran applied by his father made ibn khaldun understand about islam, and actively sought knowledge other than islamic sciences. as a muslim and hafidz of the qur'an, he upholds the greatness of the koran. as said by him, "know that qur'anic education includes religious symbols that are accepted by muslims throughout the islamic world. because of that the qur'anic education can seep into the heart and strengthen faith. and the teachings of the quran should be prioritized before developing other sciences (chapra, 2001). 3.2. the life journey of ibn khaldun first phase; period of education, this first phase was passed by ibn khaldun in tunis in a period of 18 years, namely between 1332-1350 ad. like the traditions of muslims at that time, his father was his first teacher who had traditionally educated him, teaching the basics of islam. besides his father, ibn khaldun also studied various scientific disciplines from his teachers in tunis. second phase; practical political activities, the second phase was passed by ibnu khaldun in various places such as in fez, granada, baugie, biskara and others, within a period of 32 years between 1350-1382 m. ibn khaldun's first career in the field of government was as sahib alalamah (a signatory), in the government of abu muhammad ibn tafrakhtn in tunis at the age of 20 years (maulidizen, 2017). the beginning of this career was only undertaken by ibn khaldun for approximately 2 years, then he traveled to biskara because in 1352 ad tunis was attacked and controlled by amir abu za'id, ruler of constantine and grandson of sultan abu yahya al-hafsh. when abu inan became king of morocco, ibn khaldun tried to approach him in order to promote himself to a higher position. sultan abu inan even appointed him as the secretary of the sultanate in fez, morocco. it was in this city that ibn khaldun began his career in the world of practical politics, namely in 1354 ad. the third phase: academic activity and justice, this period is the last phase of ibn's journey khaldun, this phase was spent in egypt for approximately 20 years between 1382-1406 m. arrived in cairo, egypt on january 6, 1983. during this time the mamluk dynasty was in power. the progress of civilization and political stability at that time made ibn khaldun more interested and his work al-muqaddimah was a magnum opus or the arrival of his work earlier than the author so that his arrival was welcomed happily by academics, this is where ibn khaldun's new assignment. ibn khaldun gave lectures at egyptian educational institutions, such as al-azhar university, qamhiyah law college, zhahiriyyah college and sharghat musyiyyah high school(maulidizen, 2017). 3.3. ibn khaldun's works during his lifetime, ibn khaldun had made book is kitab al-i’bār wa dīwān al-mubtada’ wa al-khabār fī al-aʻyān wa al -aʻrab wa al-aʻjam wa al-barbar wa man, 'asrahum min zawi as-sulṭān al-akbar. this work consists of three books divided into seven volumes, including: (a) muqaddimah (one volume) it is an introduction to the book al-‘ībār, the book contains a discussion of social phenomena, including in them economic activities. (b) al-‘ībār (four volumes) the book contains a description of the news about the arabs, their generation and their countries since the beginning of the creation of a mini-style until the time of ibn khaldun. in it, also briefly mentioned the nations and famous countries that had international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 73-89 79 lived during the arab nation, for example the nabataans, syrians, persians, the children of israel, coptic, greek, roman, turkish and european nations. (c) at-ta’rīf bi ibn khaldun (two volumes) this book is an autobiographical book from ibn khaldun, then he describes most of the events that he experienced during his lifetime. in addition to expressing his personality, there are disclosures of figures who have an important role in the political life of the islamic world at that time, especially in the maghreb region. ibn khaldun's greatest work is al-‘ībār (world history). this work consists of three books divided into seven volumes, namely the muqaddimah (one volume), al-‘ībār (4 volumes), and atta’rīf bi ibn khaldun (2 volumes). broadly speaking, this work is a general history of the lives of arabs, jews, greeks, romans, byzantines, persians, goths, and all nations that were known at that time. like most writers in the fourteenth century, ibn khaldun mixed philosophical, sociological, ethical, and economic considerations in his writings. every now and then, a poem illuminates his writing. however, ibn khaldun is actually very organized and always follows a very logical path. in the muqaddimah which is the first volume of al-ibar, after praising history, ibn khaldun tried to show that historical errors occurred when the historian ignored the surrounding environment. he tried to find the influence of the physical, non-physical, social, institutional, and economic environment on history. as a result the muqaddimah is primarily a book about history. however, ibn khaldun elaborated on the theory of production, value theory, distribution theory, and cycles of theory all of which merged into a coherent general economic theory which became its historical framework. the muqaddimah of ibn khaldun, as we have seen, has been published on paper, "written black on white", since 1382 but ibn khaldun then has added and changed necessary things in his work, until approximately year 1402.26 actually ibn khaldun had started his career in the field of writing wrote since his youth, when he still demanded science, and then continued when he was active in the world of politics and government. the results of his famous works include: 1. the book of the muqaddimah, which is the first book of the book al-‘ībār, which consists of the muqaddimah section (introduction). this long introductory book is the core of all the problems, and it was this book that raised the name ibn khaldun to be so fragrant. the theme of the muqaddimah is its social symptoms and history. the muqaddimah of ibn khaldun, as we have seen, has been published on paper "written black and white", since 1382 but ibn khaldun then has added and changed necessary things in his work, until about the year 1402 (gusfahmi, 1982). actually ibn khaldun had started his career in the field of writing wrote since his youth, when he still demanded science, and then continued when he was active in the world of politics and government. the results of his famous works include: (a) the book of the muqaddimah, which is the first book of the book al-‘ībār, which consists of the muqaddimah section (introduction). this long introductory book is the core of all the problems, and it was this book that raised the name ibn khaldun to be so fragrant. the theme of the muqaddimah is the social symptoms and history. (b) kitab al-‘ībār, wa dīwān al-mubtada’ wa al-khabar, fī ayyām al-ʻarab wa al-'ajam wa albarbar, wa man asharuhum min dzawi as-sulṭanī al-akbar. (early and latter-day history books and archives covering political events regarding arabs, non-arabs, and barbarians, as well as the great kings who were with them), who later became famous with the book 'ibar, which consisted of three books: the first book, is the muqaddimah, or the first volume which contains: society and its essential characteristics, namely government, power, livelihood, livelihood, expertise and knowledge with all causes and reasons, books the second consists of four volumes, namely the second, third, fourth, and fifth volumes, 80 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 73-89 which describe the history of the arabs, their generations and their dynasties. in addition, it also contains a review of famous nations and their contemporaries, such as the syrians, persians, jews (israelis), greeks, romans, turks and franka (europeans). then the third book consists of two volumes namely the sixth and seventh volumes, which contain the history of the languages of barbarian and zanata which are part of them, especially the kingdom and the maghreb states (north africa). (c) the book of “at-ta’rib bi ibn khaldun wa riḥlatuhu syarqan wa gharban” or briefly referred to as at-ta’rib, and by western people called autobiography, is the final part of the book of al-ibar which contains some chapter about the life of ibn khaldun. he wrote his autobiography was systematically using the scientific method, because it was separated in chapters, but interconnected with one another (gusfahmi, 1982) in addition to the work mentioned above, ibn khaldun actually has other works such as; burdah al-bushairi, about logic and arithmetic and some resumes of jurisprudence. while there are still two works of ibn khaldun that still have time to preserve, namely an overview written by ibn khaldun with his own hands, this is entitled lubab al-muhashal fī ushul al-dīn. and the book syifā al-sail fī tahdzib al-masat, written by ibn khaldun while in fez, was the first work to speak of scholastic theology and the second work discussed conventional mysticism. ibn khaldun had a large number of students, both at the time he taught in tunisia at al-qasbah university and at teaching in cairo (al-azhar and elsewhere). among his most important and famous students include: great historian taqi al-dīn aḥmad ibn ʻalī al-maqrizi author of the book al-sulūk li ma'ififah duwal al-mulūk. in this book, al-maqrizi revealed that our teacher abu za’īd ʻabd al-raḥmān ibn khaldun came from maghrib and taught at al-azhar and received good reception from the public. 3.4. tax in islamic economy etymologically, tax in arabic is called the term dharibah, which comes from the words ا -ب -ب which means: obliging, determining, determining, hitting, explaining or imposing, etc (yakub, 1982:815). in althe qur'an, the word with the root word da-ra-ba is found in several verses, among other things, “we then impose on them insult and humiliation”. dharaba is a form of the verb (fiʻil), while the noun form (ism) is dharibah (ة ), which can mean burden. dharibah is mufrad ism with its plural form is dharaib (ائب ). he is called a burden, because it is an additional obligation for property after zakat, so that in its implementation it will be felt as a burden (heavy picks). in for example usage, taxation service called maslahah adh-dharaib (ائب .(مسلحة ال in language and tradition, dharibah in its use does have many meanings, but the scholars use the phrase dharibah to refer to the assets collected as an obligation. this is evident in the expression that jizyah and kharaj are collected in dharibah, ie compulsorily even some scholars say kharaj is dharibah. so dharibah is the property that is compulsory collected by the state for besides jizyah and kharaj, even though both of them are can be categorized dharibah (gusfahmi, 2007). there are three scholars who provide a definition of tax, namely (a) yusuf qardhawi, tax is an obligation stipulated by taxpayers, which is remitted to the state in accordance with the provisions, without getting a return from the state, and the proceeds to finance general expenses on the one hand and to realize some economic goals , social, political and other objectives to be achieved by the state, (b) gazi inayah believes: tax is an obligation to pay cash that is determined by the government or an authorized official that is binding without any specific compensation. this government regulation is in accordance with the ability of the international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 73-89 81 property owner and is allocated to meet food needs in general and to meet the political and financial demands of the government, (c) abdul qadim zallum believes: tax is a property that is required by allah, to muslims to finance various needs and expenditure items which are indeed required of them, at the condition baitul mall has no money or property. taxes according to contemporary terms are people's contributions to the state treasury (government) based on the law so that they can be forced without immediate remuneration. there are other terms similar to tax or adh-dharibah including: a. al-jizyah (tribute that must be paid by the scribes to the islamic government). al-kharaj (land tax owned by an islamic state) c. al-„usyur (customs clearance for non-muslim traders entering islamic countries) (gusfahmi, 2007). based on the above terms (al-jizyah, al-kharaj, and al-usyur), we get that the actual tax is required for non-muslims to islamic government as a guarantee of security. so when the tax is obliged to the muslims, the scholars of the age of companions, tabi 'in until now different opinions in reacting. 3.5. fair tax system criteria in order to be fair to the jurists who support taxation, it must be stressed here that they actually only consider the "fair" tax system, which is in line with the spirit of islam. according to them the taxation system will be fair if it meets three criteria. first, taxes are imposed to finance expenditures that are actually done to realize maqashid, secondly, the tax burden must not be too rigid faced with the ability of the people to bear and distribute equally to all those who can afford to pay; and third, the collected tax funds are spent honestly for the purpose for which tax is required. a taxation system that does not meet these three criteria is seen as oppressive and acclamation is condemned (chapra, 2000). all khulafa ar-rashidin, especially umar bin khattab, ali bin abi thalib, and umar bin abdul aziz reportedly have emphasized that taxes must be collected with justice and mercy, not allowed to exceed the ability of the people to pay, nor to make them unable to fulfill their basic daily needs. abu yusuf argues that a good tax system will not only increase revenues, but also increase the development of the state. imam mawardi argues that a fair tax system will provide justice to its payers and state treasury; taxing too much will cause injustice to people's rights and too little to be unfair to the state treasury. looking at the objectives of social justice and equitable distribution of income, the progressive tax system seems to be in tune with islamic goals. however, it must be stressed that from the discussion of the jurists, what is relevant for modern life is the right of the islamic state to impose taxes with justice. is an opinion that is not realities if the taxation of muslim countries must now be limited only to tax land that has been discussed by the jurists. the situation has changed and it is necessary to complete the tax system by including the reality of change, especially the mass need for social and physical infrastructure for a developing country and an efficient modern economy and a commitment to realize the maqashid in today's context. while completing the tax system, we need to think that the system must not only be fair, but also must produce, without adversely affecting the drive to work, savings and investment, and adequate acceptance to enable the islamic state to carry out its responsibilities effectively (chapra, 2000). 3.6. the opinion of scholars about paying taxes the zakat law, namely law number 38 of 1999 concerning the management of zakat (hereinafter referred to as uupz) was passed in jakarta on september 23, 1999 during the administration of president b.j. habibie. this is the first time in the history of the government 82 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 73-89 to regulate the link between zakat paid by the community as an executor of religious obligations and taxes paid to the state which are a state obligation for every citizen (anshori, 2006). the tax term in islamic law literature basically cannot found. tax is not a system of levies known in islam. because the tax has never been charged by the islamic government to muslims. muslims are only required to pay zakat when they arrive at their nishab and to nonmuslims they are obliged to pay jizyah, kharraj, and usyr. taxes in the sense of "modern terms (modern state)" are terms that are equated with something that is collected from the people in the phases of islamic government. like zakat which he calls spiritual tax, kharrat and usyr also called tax. those who identify zakat, jizy’ah, kharraj, and usyr as tax because they have similarities in terms of burden or obligation but without looking at whom it is required (said, 2014). there are several scholars who disagree about the inside tax law islam is given as follows: first opinion: scholars who allow to pay taxes (1) sheikh ulaith, in his fatwa from the maliki school it was stated, that he once gave a fatwa concerning people who had livestock that had reached their nishab. the person is charged money every year, but not in the name of zakat. can the person intend to take the name of zakat, and is the obligation to pay alms due to that? he firmly replied: "he must not intend zakat. if he intends to pay alms, his obligations will not fall as stated by nasir al-hatab.”, (2) sayid rasyid ridha sayid rasyid ridha was once asked about christian levies in india on land, some of which were half and some one quarter of that land. may it be considered a religious obligation (zakat), such as 1/10 or 1/20? he replied: "actually the obligatory of 1/10 or 1/20 of the produce is from the zakat assets that must be issued on eight targets according to the text. if collected by amyl from priests in the islamic state. then the land owner is free from his obligations, the priest and his amil are obliged to share the zakat with his mustahik. if it is not collected by amil, it is obligatory for the owner of the property to issue it, according to allah's order. the assets collected by the christian were considered as tax and do not abort zakah obligations. that person still issues zakat. this means that taxes cannot be considered zakat, (3) sheikh mahmud syaltut, n the issue discussed, he said, that zakat is not tax. zakat is basically a treasure worship. indeed, between zakat and tax there are similarities, but there are differences in many ways. in principle, his opinion was the same as the scholars who said that, zakat and taxes differed on principles and targets. zakat obligation to allah while tax obligation to the government, (4) sheikh abu zahra when asked by people about tax and zakat, he answered, the tax up to now does not have special values, which can provide social security, even though the main purpose of tax is to tackle the problem of social society. zakat can meet demands as a tax. but taxes cannot be able to overcome the needs of the poor who demand to be fulfilled. zakat is an obligation of allah and cannot be erased by his servants. zakat remains collected throughout the ages, even though the poor are gone. of the four opinions of scholars, it is understood that zakat must be issued after fulfilling the requirements, even if someone has paid taxes. taxes should be collected if needed, even though zakat has been paid (ali, 2008). second opinion: scholars who do not allow to pay taxes in addition to a number of the jurists claiming that the tax may be collected, some of the fuqaha questioned (refused) the right of the state to increase resources through taxes, in addition to zakat. among others: dr. hasan turobi from sudan, in his book, the principle of governance, freedom, and responsibility in islam, states: governments that exist in the muslim world in such a long history are "generally invalid". therefore, the fukaha are worried that if they are allowed to withdraw taxes, they will be misused and become an instrument of oppression (gusfahmi, 1982). international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 73-89 83 3.7. the concept of fair tax management perspective of ibn khaldun long before adam smith (w.1790), who was concerned with the canons of taxation or taxation rules (equality, certainty, payment conviction and economy in collection), ibn khaldun had emphasized his taxation principle very clearly in the muqaddimah. he quoted a letter written by thohir bin al-husaini, his general caliph al-makmun, who was advising his son abdullah bin thohir, a governor of the province of ar-raqqah (syria), " therefore, distribute taxes among all people in general, do not exclude anyone because of their position or wealth and do not exclude your officers or your followers. you must not burden anyone with a tax that is beyond his ability to pay”. in this paragraph, he emphasizes the principles of equality and neutrality. while on another page, he emphasized the principle of belief and productivity. even far before, the jurists have emphasized this principle, especially the need for a fair tax system that does not suppress(choudhury, 2018). the tax impact on incentives and productivity is clearly visualized by ibn khaldun, so it seems he has mastered the concept of optimum taxation. he had anticipated the core logic of the laffer curve, about 600 years before professor arthur laffer introduced it, in two chapters on discussion of the muqaddimah. at the end of the first chapter, he concluded that: "the most important factor to create a favorable business atmosphere is to alleviate as much as possible the tax burden on business people, with the aim of promoting the business world by providing a guarantee of greater profits (after tax)". this he explained as follows: "when the tax burden is light, people have incentives to try to be more active. because, the business world is developing, which leads to greater satisfaction among the people because of the low tax burden, while tax revenues will also increase, judging by the overall source of tax land ". he further said: that as time goes on, the needs of the state will increase and the rate of taxation will also increase so revenues will be the same. if this increase is gradual, people will get used to this atmosphere, but in turn there will be a negative impact on incentives. the business world will suffer losses and decline, as well as tax revenue. thus, a prosperous economy at the beginning of the dynasty receives higher tax returns from a lower tax rate, while an economy that is depressed will receive less tax revenue because of the tax rate he explained the reason by saying: "know that acting unjustly on the property of others will reduce their willingness to seek life and obtain wealth and if the unwillingness to obtain life continues, they will stop working. the greater the pressure, the greater the impact on their work efforts and if the people do not want to make a living and stop working, the market will stagnate and people's conditions will deteriorate "revenue from taxes will also decrease. therefore, he supports justice in taxation”(chapra, 2011). ibn khaldun also analyzed the impact of government spending on economy. in this case, he was a pioneer of keynes. he said: "an increase in government spending will cause a decrease in tax revenues. the reason is that the state represents the biggest market for the world and the source of civilization. if the authorities accumulate tax receipts, or the proceeds of these revenues are lost, and he does not spend them for the intended purpose, the funds deposited in the court and supporters will decrease. likewise and will be given to employees and family members who are dependents (multiplier impact). because of that, their total expenditure has dropped. given that they are an important part of the population and spend an important part of the market, the business world will also be disrupted and the rate of business profits will decline, resulting in a decrease in tax revenues. wealth tends to revolve around a handful of people and rulers, from him to them and from them to him. thus, if the ruler keeps him for shop, the people will be kept away from him”(chapra, 2011). 84 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 73-89 taxes vary according to the wealth of the authorities and their inhabitants. therefore the amount of tax is determined by the demand and supply of the product, which in turn determines the income of the population and its readiness to pay. if taxes are too low, the government cannot carry out its functions: "property owners and abundant wealth in certain civilizations require protective power to defend them", if the tax is too high, the fiscal pressure becomes too strong so that the profits of traders and producers decrease and their incentives are lost to work: "if the tax is too burdensome and the expected profits do not occur cultural incentives will disappear." therefore, ibn khaldun divides national income into three categories, namely salaries, profits, and taxes, and each of these categories has an optimum level, however, this optimum level cannot occur in the long run, and the cycle of economic activity must occur (abdullah 2010). the money spent by the government comes from residents through tax. the government can increase its expenditure only if the government raises its taxes, but too high fiscal pressure will weaken people's morale. as a result, a fiscal cycle arises. if the government collects small taxes and the population has a large profit, they are encouraged to work. however, government needs and fiscal pressures increase, while producers and traders profit falls, and they lose their desire to produce. production has dropped, but the government cannot reduce its expenses and taxes. as a result the fiscal pressure rises. finally, the government nationalizes companies because producers do not have the incentive to run it. then, because of its financial resources, the government became dominant in the market and turned off other producers who could not compete with it. profits dropped, tax revenues dropped, and the government became poorer and had to nationalize more companies. productive people leave the country, and civilization collapses: "it must be known that in the beginning of the dynasty, taxes generated a large income from small charges. at the end of the dynasty, taxes generate a small income from large charges. at first the tax income was low. if the tax on the population is low, the population has the energy and desire to work. cultural companies develop and rise, because low taxes produce satisfaction. if cultural companies develop, individual contribution rates and tax charges increase. as a result, tax revenues rise. if the dynasty remained in power (he became) progressed each individual fee and burden rose massively, to achieve higher tax revenues due to the gradual increase in luxury tax and so many needs of the dynasty. imposing fees increases beyond the normal limits. as a result, the interest of the population in cultural companies is lost, because if they compare their expenses and taxes with their income and income, and see the small profits generated, they lose hope. therefore, many of them withdrew from all cultural activities. as a result, the total tax revenue goes down, because the individual burden falls eventually, civilization is destroyed, because the incentives for cultural activity are lost". the commercial activities carried out by the authorities will harm the population and disrupt competition tax revenues between those (residents) who have used up their financial resources. now, if the rulers have so much money compared to them side by side, rarely can any of them get the things they want (residents) thus spend their capital and must stop doing business. so, for ibn khaldun there is a fiscal optimum, but also an irreversible mechanism that forces the government to spend more and collects more taxes, which creates a production cycle. thus, ibn khladun describes a dynamic theory based on population law and public finance law. according to laws that cannot be negotiated, a country must go through cycles economic development and depression(abdullah, 2011). in summary, from the various views above, ibn khaldun discovered many fundamental economic thoughts several centuries before his birth "officially" he discovered the benefits international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 73-89 85 and necessity of the division of labor before smith and the principle of labor value before ricardo. he elaborated before malthus's population theory and emphasized the role of the state in the economy before keynes, there were still many economists who rediscovered the mechanisms they had discovered. however, more than anything else, ibn khaldun used concepts to build a dynamic and coherent system. in this system the economic mechanism cannot not bring economic activity to long-term fluctuations. because of the coherence of the system, the criticism that can be applied to most economic concepts that use the same ideas cannot be applied here(abdullah, 2011). ibn khaldun presented another theory, namely, "dynamics model", as was followed by mirza gamal. ibn khaldun in the theory referred to, has a clear view of how the factors of social, moral, economic, and political dynamics differ from one another, but are interrelated with each other for the progress and decline of a community environment or government of a region (state). ibn khaldun has contributed production theory, value theory, marketing theory, and cycle theory combined into a general economic theory that is coherent and arranged in historical framework (abdullah 2010). ibnu khaldun's contribution to the development of science is quite significant, but unfortunately, he was born when the islamic world began to decline. according to umar chapra as quoted by mirza gamal decline of muslims began in the 12th century which was marked by a decline in morality, loss of dynamics in islam after the emergence of dogmatism and the power of thought, decline in intellectual and scientific activity, local rebellion and divisions among people, war and external attacks, the creation of financial imbalances and loss of security in life and wealth, and other factors which reached their peak in the 16th century, namely during the ciscassiyah mamluk dynasty which was full of corruption, thus accelerating the process of decline (z. ali, 2009). every initial establishment of an entry country will be small but requires a lot of income: "usually the tax conditions at the beginning of the daulah are a little shared but the amount obtained is large. whereas in the final period there was a large amount to be distributed, but the amount obtained was small" (amirabedini, 2014). "that is because you are, if you follow the provisions of religion, then he is not demanding except for the responsibility of the shari'a. namely zakat-zakat, earth tax (kharaj) and head tax (jizyah). of all that little has to be divided because the amount of zakat from wealth is little as you know. likewise the zakat of grain and livestock, jizyah, and kharaj. all the liabilities of the sharia are already determined and cannot be more than the provisions. ” (amirabedini, 2014). according to ibnu khaldun at the beginning of the establishment of an empire or state, it requires high tax revenues to be able to quickly build a country even though the income that can be received is still small because of the small amount that must be taxed. countries that follow the provisions of religion cannot sue or force unless those already determined by the shari'a are like zakat. however, the amount of zakat from very little assets to be shared while the dependents of the shari'a are absolutely determined, so that they cannot be reduced or exceeded from the provisions. a perceived income, salary and development is part of the tax: "when the income and salary charged to the people are small, they are excited and happy to work. the result will be a lot of development and more results from the spirit due to the lack of burden. when development has been large, there are also many salaries and incomes. as a result the tax also becomes a lot because it is part of development ". the government gives a small burden to the people to build. so, the people will be eager to work and participate in building the country. and the more development, the more benefits will be felt by the people. if the people feel 86 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 73-89 that life is sufficient and income is large while the burden is small, the people will obey pay taxes and will increase the opinion of the state tax. when the government adds a high burden to the people it will reduce the amount of tax: "but then the addition came out of reasonable limits. as a result, the enthusiasm of the people was lost to build because of the loss of hope of their assets, due to the lack of benefits compared to the burden and between the fruit and its benefits. so many people then hold hands and stop building at all. then the amount of tax decreases at that time due to reduced income from it”(amirabedini, 2014). when the people are done unfairly by adding a huge burden beyond the fairness limit and greater dependence on the benefits that they can, so that people are not eager to build together and will reduce the amount of tax because the people are not eager to try and work or to build together because they feel very disadvantaged by large demands beyond the capabilities of the people. tax revenue will be reduced and damaged if it is misused not for state development: "when a kingdom has a reduced tax due to things that we have stated, namely luxury, lots of traditions, shopping, income is not fulfilled with various needs and shopping and there needs to be additional assets and taxes, sometimes various kinds of taxes are imposed on buying and selling transactions and people's markets ". taxes that are misused not for the development of the state will have an impact on the destruction of the state itself as a result of being extravagant and stipulating various types of taxes to increase the state's needs from people's markets and buying and selling transactions. the state must oversee the officers or tax managers so that they are not deviated and that: "sometimes with tax terms if it already exists. sometimes by dividing the workers and the towers and watching them because the kingdom views that they have produced something useful from the tax assets, the count cannot be shown ". therefore, it is very important for the government to oversee the tax agency, tax officers, and every employee in it. because they are the spearhead in collecting tax funds from the public and knowing how much tax revenue each year. if they misuse funds tax, it is certain that the government and the people will be harmed as well as development countries such as infrastructure will be hampered. to increase the increase in tax, the government must intervene with the people: "sometimes the sultan conducts trade and his own agriculture in the name of increasing tax revenues. because the kingdom was of the view that traders and farmers produced various benefits and income in addition to their easy access to wealth"(choudhury, 2018) . to increase state tax revenues, the government must contribute with the people and all other elements in order to overcome problems that often occur. because the state sees it is very important to directly participate in overcoming the state tax so that the rapid development will be carried out. the large levies imposed on the government by the people will have a negative impact on the people and the state: "difficulties, narrowness and the absence of profits made by the people can revoke their imagination from doing business in the field in total and causing tax damage. because, most taxes are taken from farmers and traders. what's more after applying levies and increasing taxes because of it. if the farmers have receded from the farm and the traders have stopped trading, then the overall tax is lost. or at least experience significant deficiencies. if the sultan between what he produces from tax and between these few benefits, the benefits are far less. then even if it is useful, it still loses a large part of the tax in sales and purchases it does. because, it is not possible if there is a tax in the event that those who do the contracts are other than the sultan, then all of his work is taxable. " (choudhury, 2018) international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 73-89 87 the government that applies levies or taxes charged to the people is too high, and the people will feel difficulties, and will not benefit. so, people will feel eager to work and try, if people are reluctant to work then they will not be able to pay taxes and tax revenues will be lost or greatly reduced significantly and this will hinder the country's development. advanced cities and magnificent buildings will be followed by the high cost of living: "we have said that cities with a lot of development are specialized with the expensiveness of their markets and the prices of their needs, then taxes increase the cost because civilization is only at the peak of its greatness, namely the period of applying royal taxes because of the large that "(amirabedini, 2014) countries or cities whose buildings are magnificent and luxurious in their progress will also have an impact on the price of higher and more expensive needs and high taxes for the people to cover expenses at that time. the high cost of goods subject to tax will affect the sale and purchase of goods: "taxes have an impact on various buying and selling ie causing the price of goods to be expensive and consequently the people and merchants all calculate the price of their merchandise by including everything they spend to pay themselves own. taxes are included in the values and prices of goods traded. as a result, it has become a major expenditure of civilizational citizens and has shifted from what was originally being excessive and wasteful. " (amirabedini, 2014). taxes greatly affect and impact on buying and selling transactions that cause expensive goods, and the existence of more profit seeking by traders consequently greatly affects the price stability and changes the nature of the previous consumer consumptive being turned into a wasteful society. 3.8. the relevance of the concept of tax management that is fair to ibn khaldun's perspective with the condition of the modern economy ibn khaldun asserted, at the beginning of the kingdom, taxation earning large amounts of income and in the end, the kingdom gained little income from many sources. ibn khaldun formulated his theory by saying, in the beginning the state followed the provisions of religion and set the burden as determined by sharia. because there is not much tax charged that has a low level. low tax rates have an impact on incentives for business activities that naturally encourage trade activities that increase a number of sources. tax revenue increases along with economic prosperity, because the state is expanding, the authorities generally like to spend unproductively. therefore, they set new taxes and even increase the previous amount. this encourages a detrimental impact on society. they finally stopped at economic activities and the state would face destruction (amirabedini, 2014). in addition to analyzing the taxation impact on the growth and collapse of the state, ibn khaldun saw and denounced the state's involvement in trade activities on the part of the authorities, because it was dangerous for the people and taxpayers. he believes, because the state is at the forefront of its power and resources, the people are in a disadvantaged position in the competition. as a result, this will lead to the deterioration of private business and the decline of concurrent tax revenues profits will be released from traders and private farmers (amirabedini, 2014). ibn khaldun's thinking about the economy is actually very brilliant which covers various economic problems, both micro and macro, especially those ideas put forward in the 14th century when europe was still behind. ibn khaldun has conducted an empirical study of islamic economics, because he explained the economic phenomena that occur in society and the state. from the study of papers it can be concluded that historically, ibn khaldun's thinking about economics far preceded modern western scholars. therefore, what deserves to be called the father of economics is ibn khaldun, not adam smith. 88 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 73-89 ibn khaldun's economic thinking as stated has discussed many problems related to discussion in economics, such as theories about value, division of labor, price systems, laws of supply and demand, consumption and production, money, capital formation, population growth, macroeconomics from public taxes and expenditures, trade, agriculture, industry and trade, welfare and prosperity, and so on. he also discussed the various stages that society passed through in its economic development. ibn khaldun's economic thinking inspired the economists thereafter, both the development of science in the east and west. but far more important, its economic thinking is relevant and gives a new perspective in photographing the economic problems of nations in the world, including in indonesia. ibn khaldun's economic thinking is very relevant to the current state of the modern economy, especially taxation issues. as we all know, there are many problems in the taxation world in indonesia, starting from lack of compliance with taxpayers, lack of knowledge of the community about taxes, high tax determined by the government, and misappropriation of tax funds and tax officers who hoard these tax funds. this is a very serious problem to be addressed and addressed as well as possible so that the tax funds can be used and utilized as well as possible to build a strong and advanced country. from the facts above, can conclude that ibn khaldun's economic thinking is very relevant to the islamic economic system and the current state of the modern economy, because in accordance with islamic economic principles, and the basic value of islamic economics, namely: tawhid, justice, freedom and responsibility. ibn khaldun's thoughts on taxes, international trade, efforts to build civilization and politics are very urgent to consider in the present context in order to create a prosperous society and state. baldatun thayyibatun wa rabbun ghafur 4. conclusion based on the discussion of the results of the research conducted by the author, it can be concluded: ibn khaldun was a muslim figure and thinker, his full name was abd al-rohman (abu zaid) bin muhammad ibn abi bakar bin hasan. he was born in trus on may 17, 1332 ad, from a family of aristocrats from hadramaut, and died in cairo on march 17, 1406 ad according to ibn khaldun, if the tax burden is light, the public will be enthusiastic about paying taxes and vice versa if the tax burden is high, the people are reluctant to pay taxes and their morale will decrease. in addition, tax officers must be monitored so that tax funds are not misused and misused because it will hinder development and harm the state. ibn khaldun's thinking about taxes is very relevant if applied to the current conditions in which the economic condition is again unstable and lack of enthusiasm in paying taxes and many who are disobedient in paying taxes so the government issues a tax amnesty program to alleviate the tax burden borne by taxpayers. collection and distribution of tax funds must be effective and efficient in order to realize a prosperous society and state. baldatun thayyibatun wa

journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 1 5 2 516 1. introduction the development of islamic banks in indonesia shows a very positive potential (firmansyah&rusydiana, 2013). increasing assets, financing and revenues indicate that islamic banks perform well. to achieve these performancethat islamic banks must continue to optimize the efficiency level for the cost incurred. to measure the performance of islamic banks can be done through the mechanism of financial statement analysis. financial statement analysis is a way of analyzing the condition of a company based on data taken from the financial statements. in measuring financial performance, the researchers measured the bank’s performance of the profitability ratios, a ratio that measures the company’s ability to generate profits. the greater the profitability ratio the better the company’s financial performance. some research on financial performance (roa) such as research conducted by choong, et al (2012), kusmayadi, et al (2017), and hidayat & firmansyah (2017). measuring the performance of islamic banks is certainly different from conventional banks that only see the performance of the business side or the ability to generate profits. in islamic banks profit should not be the only measure of performance. but other aspects need to be taken into account, especially the social and human resources aspects. to restore the purpose of the existence of islamic banks, the performance of islamic banks should be measured by maqashid sharia rather than just the rate of return on profit. as in omar muhammed’s research that formulates a useful measurement to measure the performance of islamic banking developed based on the principles of maqashid sharia with the aim that there is a measurement for islamic banks in accordance with its purpose. performance measurement for islamic banking does not focus only on profit and other financial measures, but incorporated other values of banking that reflect the size of non-profit benefits that are in line with the objectives of islamic banks. his research resulted in a measurement of financial performance of islamic banking called maqashid shariah index (msi). until now this msi model has been widely applied in subsequent scientific studies to measure the performance of islamic banking in various countries including in indonesia. some studies that use maqashid shariah index on islamic banking is omar & dzuljastri (2008) and rusydiana & firmansyah (2017) maqasid sharia index (msi) is developed based on three main factors, namely individual education, justice creation, and welfare achievement, in which three factors are in accordance with the general purpose of maqasid syariah that is “to achieve prosperity and avoid evil”. these three objectives are universal which should be the objective and operational basis of every entity with public accountability, not only sharia banks but also conventional banks, as they relate to the welfare of all stakeholders, not just shareholders or company owners in addition to measuring the performance of maqashid sharia, another important thing related to the operational management of the bank is the level of efficiency. efficiency will show the bank’s strength over existing resources to obtain maximum output. therefore, if the bank has optimized efficiency then the bank will be easier to achieve its performance. through this research will be analyzed about the islamic bank cluster on the level of efficiency and performance so that it will be known bank groups that are at a high level of efficiency and has achieved good performance as well, will also be known to other groups. international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 1 5 2 5 17 2. literature review 2.1.islamic bank islamic bank is a banking system in islamic economy that runs its business operations based on the concept of division of either profit or loss, meaning that the results obtained by customers will fluctuate in accordance with the profit earned by the bank where the greater the bank profits, the greater the results obtained by customers. islamic banks are developed based on principles that do not allow the separation between the temporal and the religious 2.2 operational efficiency efficiency is an action that management does not achieve waste. efficiency can also mean the limited management of resources so as to produce maximum output or projected output can be achieved by minimizing existing resources. assessment of efficiency in banking varies according to desired sizes. one of the easiest measures of efficiency can be seen in the comparison between operational expense and operating revenue (oeor). firmansyah (2014) uses this ratio to measure the efficiency of islamic banking in indonesia. this ratio is used to see the cost incurred by the bank to achieve maximum revenue. this ratio can be described as follows: 2.3. maqashid sharia index according to the language of maqasid al-shariah consists of two words namely maqasid and syari ‘. maqasid is the plural form of maqshud which means intent/purpose, sharia means the path to the source, and simply maqashd al-syariah means the purpose of the law is prescribed in islam. from the many opinions about maqasid sharia, as previous research by muhammed & dzuljastri (2008), the researchers considered that ibn ashur’s view of the purpose of sharia is to create prosperity and avoid the evils identical to abu zahrah’s opinion on maqasid sharia, more clearly to be reduced to several measurements . as abu zahrah classifies sharia objectives, which include: 1) tahdhib al-fard (educating the individual), 2) iqamah al-adl (creating justice), 3) jalb al-maslahah (prosperity). maqasid syariah index (msi) is a model of measuring the performance of islamic banking in accordance with the objectives and characteristics of islamic banking. msi is developed with three main factors, namely: education, the creation of justice and the achievement of welfare, where the three factors are universal. the three performance measures based on maqashid sharia, namely education, justice, and welfare require national banks to be able to design educational and training programs with moral values so that they will be able to improve the skills and skills of the employees. justice means that islamic banks must ensure honesty and fairness in all transactions and business activities covered by the product, all activities of free interest. the last syariah banking should develop investment projects and social services to improve the welfare of society (muhammed & dzuljastri, 2008). the muhammed & dzuljastri (2008) and antonio, et al (2012) studies show that the maqashid sharia approach can be a strategic alternative approach that can illustrate how well the national banking performance can be implemented in the form of a comprehensive policy strategy. operationally, the method of sekaran (2000) is able to explain the elements to be measured through the research. this is done by observing the behavior of the dimensions illustrated by the concept described. these dimensions will be translated into observable and more measurable derivative elements, which can form the measurement indexes. international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 1 5 2 518 based on the sakaran method, the behavioral characteristics to be measured are derived into a concept, denoted as (c). the concept will be downgraded again into several dimensions that will be more easily observable and measurable, denoted by (d). dimensions will be lowered back into some of the clearer elements of measurement, denoted by (e)(muhammed and dzuljastri, 2008). by using sakaran method, the banking objectives according to the shariamaqasid framework described before in the second part covering: education for individuals, administering justice and realizing welfare, can be explained operationally. each goal is translated as concept (c). then with certain characteristics it is lowered into some measurable dimension (d). this dimension will obviously be derived again into specific elements which can be easily measured (e) described in the table below: table 1. operational objectivity of islamic bank concept (purpose) dimension element

kriteria dalam penelitian ini, diantaranya adalah: the ratios were chosen because they met several criteria in this study, including: (a) discussion of banking objectives that are closer to islamic values (sharia) can be international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 1 5 2 5 19 represented through these ratios. dimensions and elements can be easily identified through these objectives. (b) previous studies that examine identic problems also use the same ratios in measurement, both for islamic banking and conventional banking. so it can be implemented in both agencies (al-osaimy and bamakhramah, 2004; hameed et al., 2006). (c) data to be collected by researchers is much easier, because the data source is the annual financial statements of banks. (d) the possibility of measuring the implementation of the concept of maqasid sharia is more accurate by using these ratios. the ratios presented in table 1 are those that meet the criteria of maqasidsyaria. the description of these ratios as well as their relation to the maqasidsyariaframework (rusydiana&firmansyah, 2017) are: (a) the first goal is individual education described by r1; donation for education/ total income. r2; research cost/total cost. r3; training cost/ total cost. r4; publicity cost/ total cost. the interpretations of these four ratios are if ratio value is increasing, or if the allocations of the fund to fulfill these four indicators are increasing, then the goal achievement of maqasid sharia in islamic bank are also increasing. (b) the second goal is creating the justice, described by r5; profit/total incom. r6; uncollectible account/total investment. r7; non interest income/total income. the goal of creating the justice by islamic bank and conventional bank are better if r5 is getting lower. means that if profit accepted by the bank are getting lower compared to total income, than the banking are valued highly implemented the goal of justice. as well as r6 is getting lower, then the goal of of justice in national banking is highly valued. means if uncollectable financing in national banking is lower compared to total investment distributed, then the goal of justice is getting better, because reducing the gap of income distribution. in otherwise, the achievement of national banking is considered getting better if r7 are highly valued. means that if non interest investment distributed by national banking are increasing compared to total investment, than the goal of justice is getting better according to maqasid sharia. (c) the third goal is achieving the welfare (maslahah), described trough r8; net profit/total activa. r9; zakat/net profit. r10; financing for investment/total financing. the goal of welfare would be achieved by national banking only if the value of r8, r9, & r10 is increasing. means that if net income, zakat and sector real investment are increasing, then support of national banking to create the maslahah are increasing 3. research method this study uses the population of all islamicbanks in indonesia from 2012 until 2016. from the total population is used purposive sampling method to select the sample to be used in this study. banks used as sampling is a bank that did not suffer losses so obtained 8 islamic banks. in this research, there are two variables that will be analyzed are bank performance measured by maqashidsharia index and operational efficiency of bank as measured by operational expense to operational revenue. the ratios used as described in table 1 are derived from previous studies conducted by muhammed&dzuljastri (2008). based on the results of his research, the average weight is as follows: international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 1 5 2 520 table2 average weight for 3 purposes and 10 elements given by experts purpose average weighting (scale 100%) elements average weighting (scale 100%) o1. education 30 e1. donation for

method used by researchers in the research maqashidsyariah index refers to the method used by muhammed&dzuljastri (2008). this method is used to weight, calculate distribution and process the rank (rank) in certain data. in this research eliminated 2 ratio that is e6 and e7 because not in accordance with syariah bank so that data not presented in financial report. while the measurement of operational efficiency is measured by the ratio between operational costs to operating income. both analyzes are based on financial statement data known as financial statement analysis. furthermore, to know the groups of banks based on the high level of efficiency and high the low performance of islamic banks, then conducted a quadrant analysis by taking the average data as the middle limit. to assist the analysis then used spss software. 4. result and discussion based on the results of research that has been implemented, the data collected are as many as 8 islamic banks the period 2012 to 2016: (a) bank syariah mandiri; (b) bank muamalat; (c) bank mega syariah; (d) bank bni syariah; (e) bank bri syariah; (f) bank bca syariah; (g) bank panin syariah; (f) bank bukopin syariah. 4.1. maqashidsyariah index assessment of maqashidsharia performance divided into 3 major sections of education, justice and welfare. the following is explained about all three: a. educational objectives in banking, the total aspects of educational objectives that can be researched are aspects international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 1 5 2 5 21 of research, training and publicity. the following table describes the research results of the three elements: table 3.maqashid sharia indexat educational objectives bank names average educational objectives bsm 0,0098 bmi 0,0187 bris 0,0125 bnis 0,0305 megas 0,0325 panins 0,0101 bsb 0,0181 bcas 0,0085 the table above shows that the aspect of the educational objectives in the period 2012 to 2016. the results showed that the average aspect of educational, the largest index conducted by banks mega syariah that is equal to 3.25% followed by bni syariah of 3.05% and third place of bank muamalat indonesia at 1.87%. b. justice objectives as in previous goals, the objectives of justice from the total aspects of justice objectives that can be researched are just aspects of fair returns and non-interest income. the following table describes the research results: table 4 maqashid sharia index on justice objectives bank names average objectives of justice bsm 0,5391 bmi 0,5066 bris 0,5350 bnis 0,5422 megas 0,5427 panins 0,5536 bsb 0,5219 bcas 0,5463 table 4 above explains that the performance of maqashid sharia from the justice objective. the results showed that banks of all banks studied in the period of research 2012 to 2016 which has the highest index of this aspect is paninsyariah bank which is 55.36%, followed by bca syariah that is equal to 54.63% and the third highest value obtained bank mega syariah is equal to 54.27%. international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 1 5 2 522 c. welfare objectives in contrast to the previous objectives, in this welfare goal the total aspects of the objectives can be examined as a whole consisting of the bank’s profit ratio, the transfer of income and the ratio of investment to the real sector. the following table describes the research results of both elements: table 5. maqashid sharia index on welfare objectives bank names average on welfare objectives bsm 0,0939 bmi 0,2434 bris 0,2040 bnis 0,0736 megas 0,0225 panins 0,2516 bsb 0,1340 bcas 0,1610 the third element of maqashidsyaria related to welfare objectives consists of the percentage of profit earned on total assets, the amount of zakat incurred from the total net profit earned, and the amount of investment financing to the real sector of total financing disbursed. on average, banks that have the greatest value of the welfare aspect are paninsyariah bank which is on average 25.16% followed by bank muamalat which is 24.34% and the third largest is bri syariah which is 20.40%. overall, the following table describes the performance of islamic banks from the aspect of maqashidshariah after performing the weighting in accordance with the provisions. table 6. analysis result of maqashid sharia index bank names maqashid sharia index bsm 0,197 bmi 0,235 bris 0,228 bnis 0,196 megas 0,180 panins 0,252 bsb 0,208 bcas 0,221 the analysis result of maqashidsyaria index (msi) conducted at 8 islamic banks in indonesia research range 2012 to 2016 obtained that the best msi performance obtained by bank paninsyariah international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 1 5 2 5 23 is the average value of msi equal to 25,2%. this shows that sharia panin bank is the best bank among other syariah banks during 2012 to 2016. 4.2. operational efficiency in this study, efficiency is measured by the ratio commonly used in banking in indonesia is the ratio of the ratio between operational expense on operationalrevenue. the smaller the value of this ratio shows the islamic banks are more efficient in running its operations. therefore, the bank should be able to optimize the costs incurred in order to obtain maximum revenue. to see the ratio of efficiency (oeor) to islamic banks in indonesia can be seen in the following table: table 7. efficiency of islamic bank number bank names efficiency (oeor) 1 bsm 87,536 2 bmi 94,156 3 bris 92,388 4 bnis 90,600 5 megas 89,730 6 panins 80,022 7 bsb 92,880 8 bcas 91,840 average 89,894 from the table above can be seen that the ratio of efficiency (oeor) of islamic banks in indonesia on average more than 89.894%. the smallest ratio was obtained by paninsyariah bank, which was 80.022%. of all syariah banks that become the object of this study, the bank paninshariah is the most efficient banks, sharia panin banks are able to optimize operating costs to be maximized into operating income. while the largest oeor value obtained by bank muamalat indonesia that is equal to 94.156%. this indicates that bank muamalatis the most inefficient bank. 4.3. quadrant analysis: efficiency and islamic bank performance this analysis is intended to know the group of islamic banks from the point of view of efficiency and performance of maqashidsharia. some groups that will be obtained are: 1) a group of islamic banks with low efficiency and low performance, 2) a group of islamic banks with low efficiency and high performance; 3) a group of islamic banks with high efficiency but low performance; and 4) groups islamic banks that have high efficiency and high performance. here is the output quadrant analysis results between the efficiency with the performance of maqashidshariah: international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 1 5 2 524 figure 1. quadrant analysis from the quadrant above can be obtained cluster group as follows:sharia bank groups that have low efficiency and low performance are bni syariah and bukopinsyariah.bank bni syariah and bank bukopin sharia is a group of syariah banks have not optimized the cost to produce maximum income. besides these two banks are also associated with low performance so that the analysis shows that the bank bni sharia and bank bukopin sharia is in the lowest group. sharia bank group which has low efficiency and high performance is bank muamalat, bri syariah and bca syariah.the group of banks in this quadrant shows that the efficiency level is still very low compared to other islamic banks. nevertheless, the muamalat bank, the sharia bri and the sharia bca have been able to demonstrate good performance as islamic banks that adhere to islamic principles. therefore, low efficiency value is not an excuse for not having a good performance, because the performance of sharia cannot be associated with the level of income earned. because as a bank that runs the principle of islam that performance measures are not only measured by profit melalinkan by social aspects as well. islamic bank group which has high efficiency and low performance is bsm and megasyariah. the group of banks in this quadrant has managed to optimize the cost to maximize its operating income so that the efficiency ratio becomes low which indicates good condition. however, although it has successfully achieved a high level of efficiency, the bank syariahmandiri and bank mega syariah have not been able to show good performance of shari’amaqoshid. islamic bank group that has high efficiency and high performance is paninsyariah.the existing islamic banks in this group have demonstrated the optimal level of efficiency because the costs incurred have been able to maximize revenue. in addition, the success of islamic banks is also shown with high performance. the combination of efficiency and high performance leads to paninsyariah banks being in the best quadrant compared to other syariah banks in indonesia. 5. conclussion and suggestion based on the results of previous research and discussion, this research can be summarized as follows: (a) islamic banks that perform well from the viewpoint of the performance of maqashidsharia international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 1 5 2 5 25 during the period of research 2012 to 2016 is bank paninsyariah while the bank has the lowest performance is bank mega syariah. (b) the best islamic bank efficiency measured by oeor is bank paninsyariah, while the lowest efficiency is obtained by bank muamalat indonesia. (c) quadrant analysis shows that banks that are in the best quadrant of islamic banks that have a high level of efficiency with high performance also is bank paninsyariah. some of the important suggestions for this study are related to the deficiencies that can be improved, including: (a) not all banks can be examined in this study because there are 2 banks whose data is difficult to obtain so further research is attempted to obtain data as optimal as possible. (b) the range of study period can be extended and can be added period 2017. in this study was not included because the availability of data on the website cannot be found. (c) can be added with regression analysis to know the effect of efficiency on maqashid performance syariah index. 6. references abdul razak, d., mohamed, m. o., & md taib, f.

and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 89-97 1. introduction currently, the halal industry in indonesia is growing. this happened because of the many requests for halal products and the existence of indonesian citizens who were predominantly muslim. the government also plays the role in the development of this industry by establishing law no. 33 of 2014 concerning guarantees of halal products. this halal product guarantee act aims to provide comfort, security, safety, and certainty of halal product availability for the community in consuming and using products, as well as increasing added value for businesses to produce and sell halal products. one of the halal products is the use of technology in the qur’an. the qur’an appears with new packaging and features that appeals public. one example is the grand maqomat mushaf product, which is one type of qur’an product sold by pt tigaraksa satria. in addition to grand maqomat mushaf, pt tigaraksa satria also produces mushaf for woman and maqomat for kids mushaf. among these three manuscripts, the grand maqomat mushaf was the one with the least sales. even though grand maqomat manuscripts are market share for the fathers, for men, who are in fact are family heads who can be the role models for their families. in this case, who is a good guide in reading the qur’an. table 1. data of digital al qur’an sales on pt. tigaraksa satria branch of semarang no product sales 2015 sales 2016 sales 2017 1 mushaf maqomat for kids 5,098 pcs 5,275 pcs 5,420 pcs 2 mushaf maqomat for woman 6,895 pcs 7,512 pcs 8,050 pcs 3 mushaf grand maqomat 4,982 pcs 4,850 pcs 4,825 pcs source: pt. tigaraksa 2017. form the above data it can be seen the mushaf grand maqomat has the least figure of sales, compare to the other types of qur’an’s mushaf which are mushaf maqoma for kids and mushaf for woman. based on this background, researcher will examine the consumer’s purchasing decision, reflected by the interest, religious stimuli and consumer’s trust to the purchased product. several previous studies related to interest, religious stimuli, consumer trust and buying decisions, including the one conducted by mawadah (2013), entitled: customer preferences for islamic banking in brebes district, 2013. this study discussed religion stimuli as the most dominant factor in influencing the selection of sharia bank for customers in brebes district. a study conducted by muhammd bahrudin and siti zuhro, entitled: the effect of customer trust and satisfaction on customer loyalty, in 2015. the results reflected that to build high customer loyalty, customer satisfaction and high trust are needed from customers. in 2013, a research on interest has also been studied by mita yuniati, mein kharnais, entitled: factors that influence consumer interest in rabbani products. the results of her study are service quality factors, company’s reputation and product attributes has significant positive interest against rabbani products. the next research is about purchasing decisions. the research conducted by dedy aguspriandono suprapto, rita nurmalina and idqan fahmi, in 2014, entitled: the contents of his research on the decision to buy powdered milk products for infants aged 26-35 months was significantly affected by factors of nutritional value composition, effect factors and benefits on children and product safety. this writing examines the variable of interest, religious stimuli and costumer’s trust in the purchasing decision of digital al qur’an on di pt tigaraksa, branch of semarang. form this study, it 91international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 89-97 is expected to obtain the information from related parties about the development of halal industry, particularly the digital al qur’an. evaluation material related to the development strategy of halal industry, especially for digital al qur’an. 2. theoretical framework and hypothesis 2.1. the correlation between interest and purchasing decision interest is basically the acceptance of a relationship between yourself and something outside yourself. the stronger or nearer the relationship is, the greater the interest (slameto, 2010: 180). great interest in something is a big capital to arouse enthusiasm in taking action that is in demand. interest is a situation where someone has attention to an object and is accompanied by a desire to know, learn, and to prove it further about a particular object with an active comprehension of the object. in completing that will, it is closely related to thoughts and feelings. the mind has a tendency to move in the rational sector of analysis, while feelings that are subtle or sharp are more desirable. based on the definition above stated that interest is a motivation that encourages people to do what they want if they are free to choose, if they see that something will be profitable, they feel interested. every interest will satisfy a need. in doing its function, the will is closely related to thoughts and feelings. the mind has a tendency to move in the rational sector of analysis, while feelings that are subtle / crave more crave needs. crow and crow stated that, there are three factors that influence the emergence of interest (mahmud, 2001: 56), which are: (1) encouragement from within. this need can be in the form of physical and psychological needs. as an instance, the urge to eat, curiosity and sex. (2) social motives are the need to gain recognition, appreciation from the environment in which he is located. it can be a factor that arouses interest in carrying out certain activities. (3) emotional factors, which are a measure of one’s intensity in paying attention to certain activities or objects. interest has a close relationship with emotions. hypothesis it is suspected that there is a significant positive effect of interest variable on the purchasing decision of digital al qur’an product on pt tigaraksa, branch of semarang. 2.2. the correlation between religious stimuli and purchasing decision religious stimuli are the factors of knowledge and religious experience that encourage a person to take an economic action. there is a concept of religiosity expressed by algound and lewis that religiosity is divided into four indicators which are, religious symbols, zakat, halal business and prohibition of usury (algaound & lewis, 2001: 15). religious stimuli have two dimensions, namely the dimension of product’s understanding and adherence to religion. (1) product is something that can be offered to the market to get attention to be purchased, to be used or consumed in which can fulfill the wants and needs (rahmawaty, 2008: 159). service products that are service-oriented have their own characteristics. (2) obedience to religion is the level of awareness and obedience of someone doing what is believed in carrying out what is taught in the religion they have adopted. since this awareness is the beginning of content expression in practical life as the base of the process of religious economic behavior (kadir, 2000: 55). hypothesis it is suspected that there is a significant positive effect of religious stimuli’s variable on the purchasing decision of digital al qur’an product on pt tigaraksa, branch of semarang. 92 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 89-97 2.3. the correlation between trust and purchasing decision trust is the perception of reliability from consumers’ point of view based on experience or more in the sequence of transactions or interactions characterized by the fulfillment of expectations of product performance and satisfaction (ferrinadewi, 2005: 4). trust is also a descriptive thought that someone has to believe in something, which is based on original knowledge, opinion, and faith. the trust on the brand plays pivotal role for the product, trust is the key variable in expanding a long-lasting desire to keep maintaining a long-term relationship of a particular brand. the trust on the brand reflects two components (ferrinadewi, 2005: 4) which are: (1) brand reliability, derived from consumer’s confidence that the product is able to meet the desired value. in other words, consumers believe that the brand concerned is able to fulfill and satisfy them. (2) brand intention, based on consumer’s confidence that the brand will be able to maintain the interests of consumers when issues in product consumption appear unexpectedly. hypothesis it is suspected that there is a significant positive variable of trust on the purchasing decision of digital al qur’an product on pt tigaraksa, branch of semarang. 3.3. the correlation of consumer’s behavior and purchasing decision consumer’s behavior is a dynamic process that encompasses the behavior of individual consumers, groups, and community members who are constantly changing. the american marketing association defines consumer behavior as a dynamic interaction about feelings, cognition, behavior and the environment in which, individuals exchange in various aspects of their lives (syriac, 2013: 5). the attempts made by consumers to obtain goods and services can be initiated by seeking information, whether through the internet, neighbors or asking salespeople. if the product is at high risk, consumers will search for more information to avoid mistakes in the decision making. if consumers believe in the benefits of a product, consumers will buy and consume the product. the behavior of consumers will certainly vary according to the conditions of the consumer, the situation and external conditions that influence it. hypothesis it is suspected that the variables of interest, religious stimuli, and trust, it is the religious stimuli as the most dominant variable that affects the consumers of digital al qur’an product on pt tigaraksa, branch of semarang. 3.4. the correlation between buying decision and purchasing purchasing decision as an action of decision making that includes the decision about type and product’s benefit, decision about product’s shape, decision about brand, decision about product’s number, decision about the sales and the decision about purchasing’s period as well as the payment method (dharmmesta, 2010: 10) consumer purchasing process (kotler, 2005: 224-228), which are: (1) introduction to problems. the buying process begins when the buyer recognizes an issue or need. in this case, the customer needs for islamic banking products and services. (2) disbursement of information. this is completed by collecting data to meet customer’s needs. disbursement of this information can be obtained from friends, family, neighbors, advertisements, brochures, institutions, and so on. (3) alternative evaluation. this is related to the selection criteria, namely tangibility, accessibility, reliability, responsibility, empathy, and product 93international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 89-97 quality assurance. as an example, in terms of selection, this is because the price offered is cheap. (4) purchase decision. after an alternative evaluation, the next process is the decision to buy or not. (5) post-purchase behavior. this is related to the level of satisfaction. and affect the next decision whether to use the product again or no more. hypothesis it is suspected that among the variables of interest, religious stimuli and trust, allegedly religious stimuli are the most dominant variable in affecting the consumers of digital al qur’an product on pt tigaraksa, branch of semarang. 3. research method 3.1 type and approach this study uses quantitative approach. where the researcher is able to determine only several object’s variables to be studied and further to develop an instrument to measure them (sugiyono, 2008: 17). in this study, the researcher utilizes data in the form of figures, in which using the sales data of mushaf al qur’an (al digital) on pt tigaraksa branch of semarang form several consumers of mushaf al qur’an. these mushafs are mushaf grand maqomat, mushaf for woman dan mushaf maqomat for kids. primary data is data is the ones that directly obtained from the first data source in the research location or research object (bungin, 2005: 132). primary data is obtained directly from the distribution of a list of questions (questionnaires) to consumers who buy digital qur’an at pt tigaraksa semarang branch. secondary data is data obtained from second sources or secondary sources of data that we need obtained from pt tigaraksa’s website, literature, journals, magazines, newspapers, and others. data can also be obtained from other data related to the study. 3.2 population and sample population is the whole objects of a research (arikunto, 2006: 131). population is the sum of all objects or individuals to be studied. the population in this study is all consumers who buy digital qur’an at pt tigaraksa semarang branch in 2015, 2016, and 2017. sample is the part of number and characteristics possessed by the population (sugiyono, 2007: 62). it can also be interpreted as a small part of a population whose characteristics are to be investigated and considered to represent the entire population or representative of the population under study. the sampling technique used in this study is non-problem ability sampling, namely accidental sampling. accidental sampling is the technique of determining a sample based on anyone who happens to be found and suitable to be considered as a respondent, will be sampled. the number of samples taken is 100 consumers or respondents. 3.3. variable of the study and measurement variables are attributes or aspects of people and objects that have certain variations applied by researcher to be studied and to be drawn conclusions. the research variables used in this study are: 1. independent variable independent variable is a number of symptoms with vary components within, which determines the presence of dependent variables. in this case, the dependent variables are interest (x 1 ), religious stimuli (x 2 ), and trust (x 3 ). 94 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 89-97 2. dependent variable dependent variable is a number of symptoms with various components or factors within, which determined by the existence of other variables. in this study, the dependent variable is purchasing decision (y). 3. variable’s measurement measurement is a deductive process. the researcher starts from a construction, concept and idea, then designing a measurement tool to study it empirically (bambang, 2012: 89). table 2. the variable of the study and measurement variable of the study definition indicator scale of measurement interest (x 1 ) interest is basically the acceptance of correlation between self and something external. the stronger or the closer a correlation is, the greater is the interest (slameto: 2010) 1.

program. 4. result and discussion 4.1. coefficient of determination the coefficient of determination has a function to explain the extent of the ability of independent variables (interest, religious stimuli and trust) to the dependent variable (purchase decision) by looking at r square. the result of the coefficient of determination can be seen in the table below: table 3 the effect test model r r square adjusted r square std. error of the estimate 1 .612a .374 .355 2.37959 a. predictors: (constant), kpy, rls, mnt b. dependent variable: kpm source: data primer processed in 2017 the results of data analysis on the purchasing decision variable indicates that r square is 0.374 or 37.4%. this shows that the independent variables which are interest, religious stimuli and 96 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 89-97 trust are only be able to explain the dependent variable by 37.4%, the remaining 62.6% is explained by other variables that are not exist or are not taken into account in the research analysis. 4.2. partial test (t-test) this partial test aims to test or confirm the hypothesis individually between the independent variables of interest, religious stimuli and trust partially have a significant influence on the dependent variable purchasing decision. the results of this t-test are explained in the following

variable stimuli show t count value of 3.642 and p-value (sig) of 0.000 below alpha 0.05. this means that religious stimuli variables affect purchasing decisions, while the trust variable shows t count value of 0.312 and p-value (sig) of 0.755 above alpha 0.05. this indicates that trust does not affect purchasing decisions. 4.3. discussion after elaborating on the results of the questionnaire distribution to 100 respondents to find out the effect of purchasing decisions with independent variables namely interest, religious stimuli and trust. as described above, interest has a positive and significant effect on purchasing decisions. based on the results of statistical processing multiple linear regression analysis with spss tools, it is known that the result of the regression variable interest variable on the purchase decision is 0.268. this is in line with the study conducted by nurhidayari (2014), where interest has a positive and significant influence on the purchase decision of smart detergent products. the variable of religious stimuli also has a positive and significant effect on purchasing decisions. regression coefficient of religious stimuli variable on purchasing decisions of 0.296. this is in line with the study conducted by mawadah (2013), concerning customer preferences for islamic banking in brebes district. in this study religious stimuli have a positive and significant effect on the selection of islamic banks. whilst trust has a positive and insignificant influence on purchasing decisions. regression coefficient of confidence variable on purchasing decision is 0.016 with a constant of 16.128 and a standard error of 5.668. the results of the study contradict the study conducted by bahrudin and zuhri (2015) where trust has a positive and significant effect on customer loyalty. the regression equation obtained from the regression coefficient variable interest religious stimuli and trust on purchasing decisions with the purchasing decision regression equation = 5.668 + 0.268 (mnt) + 0.296 (rls) + 0.016 (kpy) + e. 5. conclusion by looking at the results of the studies that have been discussed, we can pull the conclusion that 97international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 89-97 the interest variable ( x1 ) has a significant effect on purchasing decisions, this is reflected by p-value (sig) of 0.001 below 0.05, religious variables stimuli ( x2 ) have a significant effect on purchasing decisions, this is indicated by p-value (sig) of 0.000 below 0.05. whilst the trust variable (x 3 ) does not have a significant effect on purchasing decisions, this is indicated by p-value (sig) of 0.755 above 0.05. while the most dominant variable affecting buyers in buying the qur’an is a religious stimuli variable, as accordingly to the hypothesis that the most dominant variable is religious stimuli. references algaoud, l. m., & lewis, m. k.

alleviation jel: e20 e71 abstract the increasing number of the poor in indonesia makes the management of zakat play more important role. lazs (nonprofit organizations managing zakat) which functions as collecting and distributing zakat, infaq, and shadaqah in indonesia is potential to develop as an attempt for equal distribution of national income, as well as a solution for poverty alleviation. common empowerment programs by lazs include education, health, social-humanity, and economy. those all are consistent with government’s poverty alleviation programs, as mentioned in the constitution 1945. “evaluation of mustahiq empowerment-based poverty alleviation program at amil-zakat organizations in surabaya” points to a theory by wirawan that evaluation was conducted through three phases; evaluation of process, evaluation of usage, and evaluation of effect. it aims to see whether or not lazs’ empowerment programs run well and thus, be potential to be developed as a solution for poverty in indonesia. the result showed that the empowerment programs in education and health areas were found well-implemented, while the other facets including economy and social-humanity still need more improvement within. the evaluation of mustahiq empowerment-based poverty alleviation program at amil-zakat organizations khusnul fikriyah and ahmad ajib ridlwan departement of islamic economic, universitas negeri surabaya email: ahmadajibridlwan@unesa.ac.id mailto:ahmadajibridlwan@unesa.ac.id international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 6 5 7 366 1. introduction poverty has become an issue in indonesia since long time ago, even before this country reached their independence. the data from bps (a statistic center organization) on september 2014 showed that 27.73 million people of indonesia were living in poverty, and on september 2015, it had reached 28.51 million people. most of them, approximately 15.31 million people, live in java and the others live across indonesia. from the perspective of islam, however, poverty is a sunatullah (multifiah, 2011). alleviating the issue of poverty is not easy, as it needs a very-well integrated and coordinated planning with various policies reflected in each of government regulations. both government and all the elements of society should conduct the policies and thus, it needs relatively long period of time to be well implemented and sustained. the attempt of poverty alleviation by government is mentioned in article 27 subsection (2), article 28 c subsection (1), article 28 e subsection (1), article 28 h subsection (1), article 34 subsection (1), (2), and (3). those articles mention the government’s attempt to improve people welfare and to provide public facilities (e.g., health, education, autonomy and access for work, etc.) that aims to decrease the number of poverty in indonesia. poverty alleviation needs a bottom-up empowerment program involving all the elements of people through the culture of mutual assistance (munir, 2005). following friedman (1992), the concept of empowerment emerges with two possibilities, including failure and expectation. in this case, the failure refers to the fail models of economic development that aim to sustainably solve the issues of poverty and environment. expectation, on the other hand, refers to the alternatives of economic development that apply the values of democracy, gender equality, intergenerational equality, and adequate economic growth within. those failures and expectations are not only in social disciplines, but also a reflection of normative and moral values in both individuals and society. therefore, people empowerment is basically a collective value of individual empowerment (sumodiningrat, 2007). a concrete effort by the government in alleviating the poverty is seen in their various amendments of policies. some policies related to the attempt of poverty alleviation over period of time are as follow. 1) soekarno era: area reformation program, regulating the ownership of area for agriculture as well as the profit share that gives benefits for the working-farmers. 2) soeharto era: a program that provides asset in the form of land area, manifested through transmigration program for small-scale farmers and farming laborers from java to other island outside java. this program has still been running until today. 3) soeharto era: a program that provides job opportunities with a relatively low salary for jobless people, manifested through labor-intensive program. 4) habibie era: regional-based development program, including: city poverty alleviation program (this program was sustainably implemented up to the era of gus dur and megawati), as well as infrastructure development program for isolated areas, and district development program. 5) sby era: education empowerment program through bos (bantuan operasional sekolah) and bms (bantuan siswa miskin). those are kinds of government’s operational support for education, particularly for the poor students. 6) sby era: people empowerment program, manifested into pnpm (a kind of national empowerment program for people of indonesia). international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 6 5 7 3 67 similar to government’s efforts and the mandate of the constitution 1945, the syari’ah of islam has a mechanism of asset distribution. this mechanism makes people with higher economic capability (muzakki) help the lower ones (mustahiq). it is called as asset distribution, and reflected in the third pillar of islam, “implementing zakat”. additionally, islam also forbids people to amass fortune. it is clearly mentioned in surah al hashr verse (7) “… so that it will not be a perpetual distribution among the rich from among you…”. zakat, infaq, and, shadaqah (zis) are strategically potential to be developed in indonesia as a solution for asset distribution (i.e., welfare) as well as poverty alleviation (ammani, abba, & dandago, 2014). it is because, in demographic manner, most of indonesian people are moslem, and the obligation of implementing zakat, infaq, and shadaqah has strongly grown as their habits as moslems in indonesia. zakat has a very big potential for people welfare. it may decrease gab between highereconomy people and the lower ones. zakat should be delivered directly to mustahiq. in some cases, however, it makes zakat piled up in one particular individual. therefore, it is expected for zakat to be well distributed through an amil-zakat agent/organization. given that zis is potential as a solution to alleviate poverty, it should be well-managed in order to empower the poor and lead them into autonomousness and for the sake of madani people with full of equality and welfare. therefore, zis should not be individually managed by a muzakki, but through an organization of zakat management. amil is commonly required to have capabilities such as technical skills and insight of organizing zakat for the sake of their duty. qardawi (2009) argues some requirement of being an amil, including (1) moslem; (2) mukallaf; (3) amanah; (4) understanding the law of zakat; (5) capable in conducting their tasks; and (5) sincerity in conducting their tasks. currently, more amil zakat organizations are initiated by privates. however, it is not in line with the realization of zis income. the result of survey public interest research and advocacy center showed that the potential of zakat, infaq, and shadaqah along with its realization is still far from the expectation. its potential per year had reached idr 20 trillion, however, the realization still reached idr 1.2 trillion or at 6% (pirac, 2009). on the other hand, canggih, fikriyah, & yasin (2017) found on their study conducted between 2011 and 2015 that the realization of zakat was less than 1%. whereas, zakat is one of the five pillars of islam that must be implemented by capable people (hayeeharasah, sehvises, & ropha, 2013). zakat, as a supporting instrument of social infrastructure needs a good management system to give optimal contribution for people to get rid from poverty and lead into welfare (sutisna, 2010). a effective attempt of zakat management organizations (opz) to cope with poverty is through an empowerment program, in which the poor may reach achievement, be autonomous, and have better live after such empowerment (megawati, 2014). some models of empowerment program commonly developed by opz include education, health, social-humanity (i.e., management of disaster) and economy empowerments. those all attempts need assistance from laz. the process of assistance involves planning, implementation, monitoring, and controlling, as well as program evaluation. a productive management of zakat is a program to be implemented by laz. it is expected to sustainably create a good economic circulation, improve people business productivity, develop economic outcomes/results (pratama, 2015). empowerment in education is commonly distributed to poor students, particularly to provide their needs including school attribute and other supporting means for their education. in the context of health, the fund is distributed for medication, surgery, and medicines for the poor. in social and humanity, it is allocated for disaster management. in economy, it points to the development of welfare through business, both the start-up businesses and the existing ones. international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 6 5 7 368 in particular to economy, assistance from lazs is necessary in order to make mustahiq ready to develop their business. nevertheless, the fact that zakat for the poor is mostly consumptive in nature for encountering people needs in a moment has arisen as a problematic issue. it may less the distribution of zakat. therefore, it needs an evaluation on those laz’s empowerment programs in order to make the distribution of zakat effective and well-implemented for the sake of people welfare. in addition, it is expected for the evaluation to be developed, realized in national context, and become the government’s consideration to make policies for poverty alleviation in indonesia. 2. research method this study is a field research with descriptive-qualitative method. it is descriptive as it aimed to explore and describe a social condition to be thoroughly studied (sugiono, 2008). it is qualitative as its finding was neither through statistical procedures nor calculation method (strauss & corbin, 2009). it was conducted on organizations of zakat management in surabaya between april and november 2017. the data collection was in two phases; april-june for lazs in south surabaya, and july-september for lazs in west surabaya. the sources of the data were human (as informants) and some relevant documents. the informants were selected through sampling technique. however, they did not represent the population but primarily based on the relevance and detail of information as well as the theme of the study and the field condition. the technique was continuously run until it met the completeness for the data and the informants had been saturated. the source of human data consisted of the managers, mustahiq, businessmen, and non-businessmen. the source of non-human data consisted of relevant data that focused on the study. the primary informant of this study was the personals of lazs, including their director, treasurer, secretary, and staff. additionally, we collected information through an interview with the leader and supervisor. for data collection, the authors used data triangulation, including: source, technical, and time triangulations. furthermore, it used observation, interview, and documentation for data collection. 3. result and discussion the empowerment program by lazs in surabaya, is broadly classified into four categories: (1) education; (2) health; (3) social-humanity (including ramadhan program); and (4) economy. commonly, most organization of amil zakat in surabaya is still running all those programs. the most popular and regular one is in education and health, while economy and social-humanity are often incidentally implemented. these empowerment programs by lazs are consistent with the mandate of the constitution 1945, including article 27 subsection (2) that “every people has right of having job and good living for the sake of humanity”. it is in line with one of laz’s empowerment programs, especially in terms of economy and social-humanity. article 28 c subsection (1) mentions that “every people has right to evolve by encountering their basic needs, and they have right to get education and take benefits from science, technology, art and culture in order to improve the quality of their lives and for the sake of people welfare.” this is consistent with laz’s empowerment program in terms of education and economy development. article 28 h subsection (1) mentions that “every people has right to have good physical and spiritual life, good living, and good surroundings, as well as good health services”, and this is in line with laz’s program in health and economy empowerment, and so on. international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 6 5 7 3 69 the evaluation of empowerment programs for the poor in laz education program laz’s empowerment program in education is consistent with the mandate of the constitution 1945, particularly to article 28 c subsection (1) and article 28 e subsection (1). this program aims to make every people have education and take benefits from science and technology. the evaluation of process this education empowerment program takes the poor and orphans (i.e., yatim and dhuafa) in school-ages as the target. the range starts from kindergarten up to high school. this program is distributed through several schemes, including scholarship, attributes and uniform, private courses, reading holly qur’an, and etc. the subject is the registered mustahiq and other parties through direct proposal filed to laz. some laz, however, have particular policies which only provide educational support for mustahiq (yatim and dhuafa) who have requested in every month as it should be fairly distributed, not delivered to the same parties. in fact, it is apparently ineffective since it needs to select the prospective candidates every month. furthermore, it may difficult the poor and orphans (i.e. yatim and dhuafa) as they have to propose every month, in addition to the ones who do not pass the selection. the evaluation of benefit education empowerment program by most lazs in surabaya commonly provide benefit to the poor and orphans in needs for their education. it may give access for them to get education, both formal and informal, as well as the character building. in formal education, for instance, they may enroll themselves to study at school through scholarship, along with educational attributes and uniform. in informal education, they may have free private courses from lazs cooperated with particular courses, including intensive coaching for final test. in terms of character building, for instance, it may be in the form of attitude building and a movement for loving al-qur’an. some lazs also provide additional courses and training for the poor and orphans who have graduated from high school. it consists of some in-class and out-class activities conducted in a year. lazs provide some faculties based on people interests and the needs of workplace. those are accounting, economy, culinary, automotive, network, agribusiness, fishery, hydroponic, and etc. during some months, the poor and orphans may get some materials and theories. it aims to make them, particularly to the ones in productive ages, get ready to be in the workplace. the evaluation of effect education empowerment program by lazs in surabaya commonly brings effect on education. the indicator is through the logs of the poor and orphans having scholarship, private courses and training. for the poor and orphans in school ages, their academic performance will be taken into account, such as their academic rank, score, and other academic achievements. for the poor and orphans having courses and trainings (i.e., especially for they who have graduated from high school), some aspects including their output, workplace they are in, how long the waiting period before having work and other related aspects will be taken into account. health program empowerment programs by lazs have a similar purpose with government’s effort to solve the issue of health in indonesia. it is mentioned in the constitution 1945 article 28 h subsection (1) and article 34 subsection (3). this health empowerment program aims to make people have access to proper health facilities and services in order to get healthy and prosperous life, both physically and spiritually. international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 6 5 7 370 the evaluation of process this health program takes the poor and orphans in needs, particularly to health services. some lazs implement this program by visiting some schools, villages, and other low districts in surabaya, and then conducting examination to people there. it is a basic medical examination, such as eyes, ears, mouth, and teeth. when particular complaints with difficult treatment are found, lazs will give assistance for further examination. the medical services by lazs are also through donation for surgery, inpatient medical treatment, and so on. however, if the cost is over the maximum limit covered, the lazs may find such another way to help them, such as providing assistance to make health insurance (i.e., bpjs), or if the individuals have already had a health insurance (i.e., bpjs), lazs may assist in using the insurance. the evaluation of benefit in general, health program by lazs in surabaya gives access for the poor and orphans to have health services. they may keep healthy in their limitation. starting from the basic examination, lazs cooperating with some clinics and hospital may provide further medical examination for them. in addition, lazs also assist in requesting for bpjs and other donations for the poor and orphans who need to have surgery, as the medical insurance such as bpjs may not cover the cost due to several reasons. the evaluation of effect in general, this health program by lazs in surabaya brings positive effect on people, particularly to the poor and orphans who need medical treatments. the indicator of success for this program is seen from the better condition of the poor and orphans that have had medical treatment. the lazs’ data also shows that this program is effective to prevent the poor and orphans from any disease. social-humanity program this social-humanity program by lazs is consistent with the constitution 1945, particularly to article 28 h subsection (3), article 34 subsection (1) and (2). this program aims to make the poor and the homeless children get help to survive until they are capable to gain income, and to have social assurance. it is expected that any poor and homeless children will no longer be found if they can be autonomous and meet their needs. the evaluation of process social-humanity and disaster management programs by lazs in surabaya are often incidental, not regular, as disaster and such urgent issues do not regularly happen and they tend to prioritize the donation on economy empowerment. the distribution of the donation for social-humanity is often for ramadhan program and the victims of disaster. when a disaster happens, the social donation will be immediately distributed. it is similar for ramadhan program; the donation will be distributed in ramadhan and around the moment of idul fitri. for some cases, the donation will be huge, and thus, lazs will collect donation for social-humanity, such as the issue of rohingya and palestine. the evaluation of benefit this social-humanity program by lazs focuses on other issues beyond education, health, and economy. lazs provide help for social-humanity issue in order to help the mustahiq to survive from calamity and disaster they have experienced. this donation is usually in the form of food, drink, and other necessary urgent stuff for mustahiq. as those are the primary needs, it will be international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 6 5 7 3 71 out of stock in short-term period. some lazs commonly classify ramadhan program into socialhumanity in order to help the poor and orphans to do worship during ramadhan and around the moment of idul fitri. the evaluation of effect in general this social-humanity program brings a concrete short-term effect on people. however, it should be sustained and developed more, such as by providing assistance for mustahiq to begin their new life after disaster. in particular cases, this program should be combined with economy empowerment program in order to give a concrete benefit and effect on mustahiq. economy program economy empowerment program is the most popular one as many leaders implement this program in their countries. this program is in line with the constitution 1945, particularly to article 27 subsection (2) and article 28 c subsection (2). lazs also develop an economy empowerment program that takes productive mustahiq as its subject. it aims to make them capable to improve the quality of their life to be more prosperous in long-term period of time and capable to lead others into prosperity as well. the evaluation of process the process of utilizing zakat for economy empowerment takes some steps including: (1) registering the prospective candidates for donation; (2) survey of appropriateness; (3) grouping strategy; (4) assistance; (5) periodical training; (6) involving the third party as partner; (7) monitoring, controlling, and evaluation. economy empowerment program by lazs in surabaya is commonly distributed toward productive mustahiq who are still capable to do business using qardul hasan scheme. this scheme claims that productive mustahiq participating in economy empowerment will get some fund to run their business. if the business is successful, it may improve their economy condition and thus, their transition of being muzakki is expected to happen. commonly, lazs require the mustahiq to return the fund, although the time limit is not fixed set up. it aims to make them responsible with the fund provided. some lazs succeed implementing the scheme, and some others are still stuck with the mustahiqs’ persistence in developing their business. lazs commonly have particular criteria they use to select the prospective mustahiq for capital assistance. one of lazs in surabaya, for instance, develops an economy empowerment program with a training scheme (in about 6 months), and followed by giving a capital assistance and business practice. it develops the economy empowerment program using a grouping model and capital rolling in one area. at the beginning of the business, the capital assistance will be provided to 30% 40% of the total mustahiq in their group. after those mustahiq have already returned the capital assistance to the group (not to laz) it will be distributed to another group respectively. lazs also have some other criteria such as the limit of ages (i.e., productive age), the mustahiq should have a business (at least for two years), and the mustahiqs’ persistence in training (and will be assessed during the training period before they have the capital assistance). in fact, however, those predetermined criteria are not fully implemented due to several reasons, such as the group of mustahiq consists of people out of productive ages and with a very early business started or even they have no business to run. nevertheless, the lazs cannot put aside those members from their group. thus, economy empowerment program by lazs in surabaya is generally implemented, but not fully well-implemented. many aspects need to improve, including the scheme, input (the prospective mustahiq), and the process of monitoring. another problem to encounter is that most of the mustahiq have a very limited marketing skills and low educational international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 6 5 7 372 background, which makes them difficult to have assistance on good business management and financial administration. the evaluation of benefit economy empowerment program is one effective way for public welfare distribution. this program is a solution for poverty alleviation, and it is expected to improve the national economy development. it facilitates productive mustahiq. hence, they may take benefits from this program, including business training such as production skill, basic accounting skill, and marketing skill. most lazs in surabaya provide particular training to the prospective mustahiq before the capital assistance is distributed. they also select the candidate based n their readiness, maturity, and persistence in business. the qualified mustahiq will have some capital assistance to run their business. they may immediately run their business under lazs’ monitoring and assistance. the evaluation of effect in general, this economy empowerment program brings positive effect people, particularly to ones who get the assistance. the mustahiq who want to develop their business and improve the quality of their economy feel grateful for this program, although most of them often feel difficult to implement the material they have in training such as the basic accounting management, marketing skill, and other business management materials. 4. conclusion in general, empowerment programs by lazs in surabaya are classified into four categories, including: education, health, social-humanity (e.g., ramadhan program), and economy. those programs are in line with the government’s program to solve the issue of poverty. it is also consistent with the mandate of the constitution 1945, in particular to article 27 subsection (2), article 28 h subsection (1), article 28 c subsection (1), article 28 e subsection (1), article 34 subsection (1), (2), and (3). therefore, it is expected that the successful programs by lazs in surabaya can be implemented in national level. empowerment through education, health, social-humanity, and economy programs by lazs in surabaya brings some benefits along with its effects. for instance, the programs of utilizing zakat for economy empowerment may bring economic, social, and spiritual effects on the mustahiqi. this may create unity and solidarity between the poor and the rich. some well-implemented empowerment programs refer to education and health fields. we saw that those two programs could be sustainably developed and implemented in national level. in addition, social-humanity and economy empowerment programs still need some improvements within. according to the result of this study on zakat distribution for empowering the poor, we recommend some suggestions such as: carefully selecting the prospective candidate of mustahiq, not only that they are from the group of asnaf, but also requiring them to have strong characters and personalities and be persistent in implementing the program, especially for education and economy empowerments; monitoring and assisting those two programs; increasing the quota of the prospective mustahiq for education and economy empowerment programs as those two program bring a very concrete effects on mustahiq’ independence; and finally, organizing volunteers to do monitoring and assistance. international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 6 5 7 3 73 acknowledgment this article is the result of

128 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 127-136 1. introduction banking development increases significantly today. this change occurs due to rapid growth and development of technology, information, machine and heavy equipment, particularly communication technology. as a result, the change impacts quickly on the change of community behavior. in the presence of technology, community can acquire information easily, particularly concerning banking realm in indonesia. sharia-compliant banking emerges for the first time with the publication of law no. 10 of 1999 as the revision of law no.7 of 1992 about banking, in which the law directs conventional to establish sharia-compliant branches (rizal, 2014: 14). since 2008, sharia-compliant banking in indonesia starts to use special law for sharia-compliant banking. the law is law number 21 of 2008 about shariacompliant banking ratified on july 16, 2008. the law consists of 13 chapters and 70 articles (rizal, 2014: 27). the improvement occurs in indonesian banking sector due to some factors, one of which is marketing. a good right marketing will affect industrial performers positively; one sector affected with it is banking realm. bank marketing is a process of creating and exchanging bank’s product or service intended to meet customers’ need by means of giving satisfaction (kasmir, 2003: 63). considering bank of indonesia governor’s decree number 12/41/kep.gbi/2010 on may 21, 2010 about the publication of business license for pt bank bni syariah, corporate plan uus bni of 2003 stipulated that the status of uus is temporary in nature and will undertake spin off in 2009. the plan was realized on june 19, with the operation of bni syariah as sharia-compliant public bank (bank umum syariah or bus). the realization of spin off time on june 2010 was inseparable from external factor constituting conducive regulation aspect, in this case the publication of law no.19 of 2008 about islamic based government securities (surat berharga syariah negara or sbsn) and law no. 21 of 2008 about sharia-compliant banking. in addition, government’s commitment to sharia-compliant banking development is getting stronger and its awareness of the superiority of sharia-compliant banking product also increases. there have been 65 branch offices, 161 unit offices, 17 cash offices, 22 mobile service cars and 20 payment points up to june 2014. considering the data of indonesian sharia-compliant bank association (asosiasi bank syariah indonesia or asbisindo), there is an increase by 20.33% from idr 296.26 trillions in late 2015 to idr 356.50 trillions in late 2016. in addition, the fund reaches idr 249.09 trillions or increases by 16.40% from idr 213.99 trillions in previous year. meanwhile, third party fund gain reaches idr 279.33 trillions or grows by 20.83% on december 2016 compared with that on december 2015, idr 231.17 trillions. the position of profit is idr 2.09 trillions on december 2016, grows by 17.46% compared with that on december 2015, idr 1.78 trillions (www.bnisyariah.com). considering the background above, the research on marketing mix is feasible to follow up because the competition between bni syariah and other sharia-compliant bank is very tight, confirmed with brand image and service quality in order to create positive perception on and belief in bank bni syariah’s product affecting customer loyalty. 2. literature study and research hypothesis marketing mix tjiptono (2014: 41) suggests that marketing mix is a set of instruments that can be used by marketers to create the characteristics of service offered to customers. the instruments can be used to arrange long-term strategy and to design short-term tactic program. 129international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 127-136 some scholars said that there are four main variables existing in marketing mix called “4p” product, price, place, and promotion. they can be defined as follows. a. product the product here can be any thing offered to potential customers to meet certain need and want. product is any thing the market offers to be considered, obtained and used or consumed to meet need and want including physical, service, people, organization, and idea. product is a combination of product (goods) and service offered by company to target market. product includes not only physical unit but also packaging, guaranty, brand, and post-sale service (rivai, 2012: 12-14). b. price price, according to kotler (2008: 345), is a number of values given by customers to benefit from having or using a product or service. c. place place shows a variety of activities conducted by company to make product accessible and available to company. location or place is distribution pertaining to the customers’ convenient access to service. it is a strategic place in which the product is available to enable the consumers to get a product (rivai, 2012: 31-32). d. promotion (promotion) mc. daniel et al (2001: 56) define promotion as an activity of producing information, persuading, or reminding consumers about the benefit of a product. brand image brand image, according tjiptono (2005: 49), describes association consumer’s belief in certain brand. generally, consumer will buy products with famous brand, because consumers feel safe with something they have known. brand name distinguishes a product from competitor products. their strong identity creates main competitive advantage. the brand known by buyers encourages repeated purchasing. a brand is strength. the stronger the value of brand you have, the stronger is the company you have. factors supporting the creation of brand image in its relation to brand association: (kotler, 2008). 1. strength it is the physical advantage the brand has and not found in other brands. this brand’s advantage refers to physical attributes of the brand that can be considered as its strength over other brands. strength includes the functioning of all product facilities, physical appearance, product price, and appearance of supporting facilities and broad market coverage. 2. uniqueness meanwhile, uniqueness is an ability of distinguishing a brand from others. this impression results from product attributes differentiating it from other products. uniqueness included appearance variation or name of a brand that is memorable and easy to spell, as well as the physique of product. 3. favorable favorable characteristics includes the product brand’s easiness to spell and their ability to be memorized by customers making the product well-known and favorite to community and compatibility between brand image in customers’ mind with the image wished by the company over the brand. 130 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 127-136 service quality tjiptono (2005: 110) states that “quality is a dynamic condition related to product, service, human resource, process and environment meeting or surpassing the expectation”. in addition, he (2011: 3) also suggests that service is simply a series of activity to do something for others. quality, according to koller and keller (2008: 143), is total feature and characteristics of product or service dependent on the ability of satisfying the need, either implicitly or explicitly. service discrepancy, according to lovelock and wright (2007: 98-99), is not the only one way for the customers to asses service quality. they also use five broad dimensions as the criteria. 1. tangibles it is physical evidence of service supporting service delivery. it includes physical facilities, equipment, personnel, and communication media. 2. reliability reliability means accurate and satisfactory according to the promised one or the ability of giving service according to the need. it means giving service readily and quickly from the first time. 3. responsiveness it is employees’ desire and efficiency in helping the consumers by giving service as well as possible. 4. assurance it is an ability the employees have to cater to customers patiently and friendly, responsively, quickly, and reliably. 5. empathy it is a sincere attention given to consumers, including convenience in establishing relation with consumers, directing, communicating well, giving personal attention, understanding the customers’ need, and corresponding to the time the customers have. loyalty literally, loyalty is defined as allegiance, an individual’s allegiance to an object. mardalis (2005: 111-112) defines loyalty as a condition in which customers have positive attitude to a brand, commitment to the brand, and intend to continue their purchasing in the future. the fully-integrated customers in action loyalty stage can be hypothesized as the ones have low vulnerability to switching to other product. in other words, this action loyalty gives the customers only a little or no opportunity of switching to other products (mardalis, 2005: 113). tjiptono in sangadji and sopiah (2013: 115) suggests indicators that can be used to measure customer loyalty as follows: a. repeated purchasing; b. brand consuming habit; c. big preference to brand; d. determination to brand; e. belief that the brand is the best one; f. recommending the brand to others; and g. saying positive things about the company to others. 131international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 127-136 3. research method this study was a quantitative research. this quantitative research was used to answer the problem statement of research, the answer to the problem research using theory only. quantitative method is appropriate to use in the already clear research generally conducted on broad population, so that the result of research is less in-depth (sugiyono, 2014: 347). the author selects case study on the customers of fatmawati branch of bank bni syariah because the customers themselves feel service quality of bank bni syariah. the research was conducted from june to august 2017. in this study, there were two types of variable: independent and dependent variables. independent variables were marketing mix (x 1 ), brand image (x 2 ) and service quality (x 3 ), while the dependent on was customer loyalty (y). method of collecting data primary data was data source directly giving data to data collector (sugiyono, 2015: 137). to obtain primary data in this research, the method of collecting data employed was questionnaire. questionnaire is the technique of collecting data conducted by distributing a series of written questions or statements to be responded to by respondents. questionnaire can be closeor openended questions or statements given directly to respondents or sent via mail or internet (sugiyono, 2015: 142). primary data employed in this study was the one based on the response to the questionnaire distributed directly to 100 customers of fatmawati branch of bank bni syariah. in this research, the answers given by respondents were scored using likert scale in checklist (p) for,/ likert scale is the scale used to measure an individual’s or a group of individuals’ attitude, income, and perception on social phenomenon. through likert scale, the variable measured was elaborated into indicator of variable. then, indicator was made the starting point to arrange instrument items including statement or question (sugiyono, 2015: 93). method of analyzing data method of analyzing data employed was a multiple-linear regression one. basically, regression analysis was a study on the dependency of dependent variable on one or more independent variables (explanatory variables), aiming to estimate and or to predict the mean population or mean score of dependent variables based on independent variable value known (gujarati, 2003 in ghazali, 2016: 93). 4. result and discussion normality test 1. graphic analysis figure. 1 p plot regression 132 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 127-136 considering the result of data analysis a shown in figure about p-plot normal curve above, it can be concluded that on p-plot normal curve, there are points spreading around diagonal line, the distribution of which is not too far or wide. it means that this curve shows that regression model is corresponding to normality assumption and feasible to use. table. 1 multicolinearity test coefficientsa model collinearity statistics tolerance vif 1 (constant) marketingmix .930 1.076 brandimage .787 1.271 servicequality .792 1.263 a. dependent variable: loyalty from table above, it can be seen that tolerance value is close to 1 and variance inflation factor (vif) value is around 1 for each variable, indicated with tolerance marketing mix value of 0.930, brand image discipline of 0.787, and service quality of 0.792. in addition, vif value was 1.076 for marketing mix, 1.271 for brand image, and 1.263 for service quality. a regression model is stated to be free of multicolinearity problem when it is has vif score less than 10. thus, it can be concluded that there is no multicolinearity problem in the regression equation model and this model can be used in this research. heteroscedasticity 1. graphic analysis heteroscedasticity aims to study whether or not there is difference of variance or residual between one observation and another in regression model (ghozali, 2013: 139) figure. 2 scatterplot the figure of scatterplot chart above shows that data is distributed above and below 0 (zero) on y axis and there is no clear pattern in data distribution, meaning that there is no heteroscedasticity occurring in regression equation model, so that the regression model is feasible to use to predict employee performance based on the variables affecting it, including marketing mix, brand image, 133international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 127-136 service quality, and loyalty. table. 2 multiple regression analysis result of multiple linear regression test considering the coefficients above, the following equation can be obtained: y = a + b1 x1+ b2 x2 + b3 x3 + e where: y = customer loyalty x1 = marketing mix x2 = brand image x3 = service quality a = constant (intercept) b1-3 = coefficient of regression e= confounding variable (disturbance error) t-statistic test t-test shows the size of effect of independent variables partially on the variation of dependent variable. table. 3 result of t-statistic test the effect of marketing mix (x1) on customer loyalty ( y ) it can be found that t-statistic value of marketing mix is 5.209, while t table can be calculated, 134 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 127-136 with = 0.05, as it uses two-way hypothesis, when finding t table, with divided into two, 0.025 and df = n-2, df 100-2 = 98, and it can be found that t table value = 1.984. thus, t hitung > t tabel or 5.209 > 1.984 with significance level of 0.000 < 0.05. therefore, it can be concluded that ho is not supported and h a is supported. it means that marketing mix affects customer loyalty partially. the effect of brand image (x2) on customer loyalty (y ) it can be seen t-statistic value for brand image is 12.460, while t table can be calculated, with = 0.05, as it uses two-way hypothesis, when finding t table, with divided into two, 0.025 and df = n-2, df 100-2 = 98, and it can be found that t table value = 1.984. thus, t hitung > t tabel or 12.460 > 1.984 with significance level of 0.000 < 0.05. therefore, it can be concluded that ho is not supported and h a is supported. it means that brand image affects customer loyalty partially. the effect of service quality (x3) on customer loyalty (y ) it can be seen t-statistic value for service quality is 2.905, while t table can be calculated, with = 0.05, as it uses two-way hypothesis, when finding t table, with divided into two, 0.025 and df = n-2, df 100-2 = 98, and it can be found that t table value = 1.984. thus, t statistic > t table or 12.460 > 1.984 with significance level of 0.000 < 0.05. therefore, it can be concluded that ho is not supported and h a is supported. it means that service quality affects customer loyalty partially. table. 4 f test anovaa model sum of squares df m e a n square f sig. 1 regression 402.388 3 134.129 106.838 .000b residual 120.522 96 1.255

indicates that the use of sales promotion girl is potential to violate islamic sharia because of the inadequacy of the clothes used by spg, since in the marketing system, the clothes used by sales

reviewed from islamic perspective fajar adhitya faculty of islamic economics and business uin walisongo semarang email: fajar.adhitya@walisongo.ac.id 100 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 99-106 1. introduction an entrepreneur is a human being who is able and capable of doing business, regardless they are tired and always trying to reach the glory. a businessman, in doing his business also conducts activities called marketing (nurcholifah, 2014). kotler & keller (2013) explained that marketing is a social and managerial process where individuals and groups get what they want and need by creating, offering, and exchanging goods/services with other parties. in this state, marketing is a process of meeting between individuals and groups where each party intends to get what they need/want through the stages of creation, supply and exchange. marketing is an activity carried out by a company/organization to maintain the continuity of its company, to grow and to profit. in marketing, there is a design of activities to support the income target to be obtained, so the need for marketing management is to manage all these activities runs smoothly. the activities that support marketing management are sales/marketers. marketers are individuals who are looking for one or more prospective customers to distribute products from one location to another so that the exchange of values is involved. one strategy that has become a trend among companies now, is marketing with a model of sensual marketing carried out by sales promotion girl or often called spg. sales promotion girl is a woman who sells certain products. the number of women who work to fulfill their daily needs, particularly as sales promotion girl as a result of the time’s development and the changing perspective and pattern of thinking about the position of a woman. today’s life does not provide an opportunity to limit women’s work. nowadays, many women are working in government and private offices, and not a few also become members of the military and state police, quite a lot are working in the field of the company, for example selling or often called marketing. marketers are the spearhead of the company since they are in direct contact with candidates of customers/ potential customers. sales promotion can contribute to the success of ongoing marketing efforts if there is a proper understanding of consumers and markets (mendez, bendixen, abratt, yurova, & o’leary, 2015). in selling the company’s products, it requires several activities involving resources, in this matter, these resources can affect the management of a product that can further be accepted by the community. promotional activities are usually carried out involving skills for each person, such as sales promotion girl (spg). the sales promotion girl is aiming to attract consumers, this is based on the appearance of an attractive sales promotion girl since in the recruitment process, sales promotion girl must meet several criteria, namely good looking, dare to be different, having height above average, proportional weight, and also possess the ability to speak. in the recent competition era, there are quite a lot of companies utilizes the sales promotion girl as a method to smooth their product’s marketing. in this era of competition, not a few companies in indonesia use sales promotion girl as a way to make their product marketing run smoothly. the utilization of sales promotion girl in marketing a product now can be found anywhere, especially if the company launches a new product that is not familiar yet to the public. there is even a sales promotion girl recruitment service company, it is named as agency sales promotion girl, it will be a distinct advantage for the service company because of the tendency of companies in indonesia to require sales promotion girl. as with cigarette products, sales promotion girl tends to be targeted at product knowledge as a way of successful promotion. the statement was corroborated by the results of study from (alvo & hasan, 2017) which stated that the promotion and marketing through spg was very effective and efficient in increasing sales turnover. the determined criteria by the sales promotion girl (spg) agency and the company are sometimes falsely implemented in the field by women who are sales promotion girl professionals. 101international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 99-106 they assume that being spg must be sexy like the opinions that have been developed in the community by far, although not all agencies and companies require sales promotion girl to dress sexy and indulge in genitalia. based on the observations that the researcher has done, 80% of the spgs muslims who in islamic teachings forbid the use of clothing that shows or reveals body curvature (aurat) in every activity of life including work. by looking at the attached symbols to the spg also enables a poor stigma for spg as a profession based on the sexy outfit, make up to the more aggressive and coercive verbal language when offering the product. the previous study conducted by (sari, 2014) stated that the community leaders’ perspective towards the automotive sales promotion girl (spg) in surakarta is poor or negative. surakarta is a city which well-known as identic to the stigma of woman who is polite, friendly and soft tends to consider physical appearance, the body language and how an automotive sales promotion girl (spg) interacts with a customer already has a poor image. based on the background above, the academic anxiety arises for the researcher about the potential issues that can occur due to spg’s behavior that is crossing the boundaries of both clothing and behavior limits. these problems are essential to be studied considering the problems that arise are very much related with the religious norms/cultural norms of the indonesian people. this motivates the writer to study more deeply about marketing strategies with sensual marketing if reviewed from islamic perspectives. the number of women who work is based on several factors, one of which is the desire to develop and fulfill needs. according to (lestari, 2012) by working, women are considered to have a higher social status and gain social rewards from the community. the opportunity to develop as broadly as possible for women makes women begin to dare in emerging excellence in job competition and issue ideas. there are so many jobs that can only be completed by women such as sales promotion girl. poerwodarminto in (rafikah, 2014) stated that sales promotion girl (spg) is a profession that is aimed to sell or to promote a product. this profession involves a woman who has appealed physical appearance as an effort to attract consumer’s attention. retnasih (2001) defines sales promotion girl as a woman who is recruited by a company to promote the products. this opinion is seen by the existence and function which is as the presenter party of a product. this statement also illustrates that the main task of a sales promotion girl is to produce a product. sales promotion girl is a saleswoman who offers a service to serve the consumer. by the presence of sales promotion girl, a company is able to attract consumer and influence the consumer to try the offered product (mutiara, 2013). according to raharti (2001), there are several obligated requirements that must be fulfilled by the sales promotion girl: first, performance is a physical appearance that can be seen by the vision. it means that performance is about the characteristic that is measured by outlook appearance (physical appearance) and dress code design (clothing design), second is the communicating style which means an absolute communication must be fulfilled since the communication will create interaction between consumer and sales promotion girl. this communication is measured based on the style of speech and the way of communicating that is valued from the consumer, the third is body language which means more body language/ physical movement (weak, soft, graceful, etc.). the body movements when offering products and touches are descriptions of body language. it is very possible that sales promotion girl recruited by the company will be able to create a good perception of the product advertised and will be followed by interest in buying. marketing a product requires several activities which involve several resources. in marketing, there is also a section that has a direct relationship with consumers, namely product sales. basically, 102 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 99-106 product sales now have a direct marketing section that offers product offerings and product samples. this section is usually known as sales promotion. an spg is demanded to look attractive as the initial effort to attract potential consumer’s interest, at least the consumer listens to the explanation of the offered product or even try it. furthermore, an spg also has to possess deeper knowledge about the product so that the potential consumer is interested to buy that product. to become an spg, it takes several conditions. the common condition for an spg is as listed: female, 21 y.o. maximum, high school or equivalent the academic background, height is 160 cm as the minimum, 56kg as the maximum weight, attractive looking, has experience as an spg or having learning interest to become a professional spg. the company’s need for sales promotion girls is matched with the character of a product to be marketed. product promotion for daily needs usually uses sales promotion girl with lower possible criteria compared to sales promotion girls for premium products. having that way, the selection of the sales promotion girl personnel’s utilization can be completed with consideration of the products to be promoted. the compatibility between the products promoted and the sales promotion girls’ qualifications makes it possible to increase the attractiveness of consumers in the promoted products. the physical character’s existence of a sales promotion girl, in its function is able to elevate the image of the product, especially direct consumption products. at the time of hearing the word marketing, it is often linked by many parties with sales, sales promotion girls, advertising, promotions, or products. marketing can be interpreted as a social process that designs and offers something that becomes the needs and desires of customers in order to provide optimal satisfaction to customers (rivai, 2011). marketing can be interpreted as an activity that strives to make the marketed products acceptable and favored by the market (khasmir, 2004). marketing is the result of work’s performance of a business activity that is related to the flow of goods and services from producers to consumers (assauri, 2013). in a broader view, marketing is a process of an activity that starts long before the goods / materials enter the production process. marketing activities include concept of development, pricing, promotion, and distribution of a number of ideas, products, and services. the marketing of islamic product has no significant difference from other marketing that we are familiarized with, however, sharia marketing focusing more on and based on islamic sharia derived from al qur’an and hadiths. furthermore, (makmun, 2015) stated that in running a business particularly in the marketing process, it has to be based on the proper management and by holding the ethics and morality that is applied in the society that possess social and religious values. the company’s need for sales promotion girls is matched with the character of a product to be marketed. product promotion for daily needs usually uses sales promotion girl with lower possible criteria compared to sales promotion girls for premium products. having that way, the selection of the sales promotion girl personnel’s utilization can be completed with consideration of the products to be promoted. the compatibility between the products promoted and the sales promotion girls’ qualifications makes it possible to increase the attractiveness of consumers in the promoted products. the physical character’s existence of a sales promotion girl, in its function is able to elevate the image of the product, especially direct consumption products. an spg is demanded to look attractive as the initial effort to attract potential consumer’s interest, at least the consumer listens to the explanation of the offered product or even try it. furthermore, an spg also has to possess deeper knowledge about the product so that the potential consumer is interested to buy that product. furthermore, an spg also has to possess deeper knowledge about the product so that the potential consumer is interested to buy that product. the common requirements for an spg is as follows: (a) female (b) 21 years old as maximum 103international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 99-106 age (c) high school or equivalent as the academic background (d) has minimum height as 160 cm (e) 56 kg as the maximum weight (f) attractive looking (g) posses experience as an spg or having desire to learn to become a professional spg. 2. research method this study uses qualitative research method with a phenomenological approach. according to (moleong, 2006), qualitative research is a study that aims to understand the phenomenon of what is experienced by the subject of research, such as behavior, perception, motivation, actions, etc., thoroughly, and by way of description in the form of words. words and language, in a special natural context and by utilizing a variety of natural methods. through the phenomenological approach of alfred schutz, the writer will describe the complex reality in women’s lives as spg. this research method was chosen because in addition to not using statistical numbers, the author wanted this research to explain the meaning of women as sales promotion girl in semarang city. in accordance with the purpose of this study, the research subject was devoted to women who were sales promotion girls in the city of semarang totaling 3 spg. the criteria for informants to see the meaning of women as spg in semarang city, which are: the informant is a woman who is a muslim, the informant has promoted products in the form of information and the informants have followed at least 5 events. the object of study is the point that becomes the focus of a study. the point of attention is in the form of material that is examined or solved the problem using the theory in question (chaer, 2007) in this study the object of the study was semarang city. 3. result and discussion basically, a woman’s task is to manage the affairs of the house, take care of the family, educate children, and serve the husband, as the prophet said: “the woman is responsible for the affairs of her husband’s house” (hr al-bukhori). women are not required to fulfill their own needs because they are the responsibility of their father or husband. even so, islam does not prohibit women from working. they may sell or buy business with their personal property. no one can prohibit them while following the religious guidelines. there is stigma arises in society indicates that by working, women are considered to have a higher social status and get social appreciation from the community (lestari, 2012: 143). [having job as a sales promotion girl can increase family income, decrease family’s economic burden and can fulfil the needs sir, therefore it can increase family’s economic image. woman nowadays has to be independent, become the breadwinner of herself, better than to stay jobless sir. lately it is difficult to find jobs at the office which is why i become a sales promotion girl (spg)]. (interviewed on 29th april, 2018). the statement of this informant strengthens the study conducted by (samsudin, 2013) stated that woman prefer to work as an spg for cigarettes industry because of reason like gaining bigger income to fulfil daily needs. a study from (arfryani, 2016) stated that the past motive from a female college student to become an spg are: economy, which is the will to live independently, means that financial needs are fulfilled. aside from many who falsely apply the implementation of the provisions of the agency and the company, there are some spg who deliberately dressed that displayed aurat with the aim of tempting the customer to buy the cigarette products offered by the spg. many sales promotion girl dressed beyond fairness / display excessive genitalia which can actually invite lust and can invite someone to commit a crime such as sexual harassment. sales promotion girl who are many sensual marketing actors who are sexy, this was revealed by my informant as aprilia (25 years): most of the women who work as spg are dressed in sexy packs, it aims to attract more consumers’ 104 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 99-106 buying interest, because the products i sell are cigarettes which are actually male users, i also eat sexy so they are attracted to me only later interested in the goods / products that i sell. dressed in sexy, i sold the cigarettes faster and reached the sales target (interviewed on april 29th, 2017). what was conveyed by aprilia (25) as an informant was corroborated by the research conducted by (agow, 2017) which stated that the many issues circulating in the community about the spg profession made the spg cigarette image worse, in which the community considered spg social negative behavior. basically, women may work if they get permission from their father or husband when the woman is married and if her job requires her to leave the house. the right to give permission of the husband to the wife is automatically lost if a husband does not provide for his wife. if the woman works, she shouldn’t leave the obligation to take care of the family and care for her children. the criteria for work done outside the home for women according to (manshur, 2012) are: (a) excluding immoral acts as singing, or playing musical instrument and does not tarnishing family’s honor. (b) does not require her to spend time alone with a man, since it is feared that there could be slander between the two of them. (c) does not require her to have over make up and shows her aurat when she is. and settle in your homes; and do not display yourselves, as in the former days of ignorance. and perform the prayer, and give regular charity, and obey god and his messenger. god desires to remove all impurity from you, o people of the household, and to purify you thoroughly. (qs. al ahzab: 33). in the marketing system, promotion is the main thing because when the promotion is completed, later on we will know how consumer responses to the products we offer. part of the sales promotion’s function is not only to strengthen the consumer’s commitment but to encourage repeatedly purchases (oyeniyi, 2011). in promoting a product, we need the services of a sales promotion girls (spg). the bidding process carried out by an spg already has and is based on the provisions of the company itself. but in the implementation of product offerings that becomes promotions in the field, the sales promotion girls (spg) should only be to attract buyers from the goods promoted so that, consumers when buying goods really pay attention to the quality of the product to be purchased through an explanation delivered by spg, not by consumer interest against clothes worn by spg. within the field of product / goods marketing, the prophet muhammad has set the best example: he is charming, builds relationships, prioritizes blessings, understands customers, gains trust, provides the best service, communicates, establishes personal relationships, responds to problems, creates feelings one community, integrating, creating engagement and offering choices. the concept taught by the prophet muhammad saw is often referred to as islamic marketing. the concept of sharia marketing is developing along with the development of islamic economics in indonesia. (tamamudin, 2014) said that in some literature many people say, the sharia market is an emotional market, whilst the conventional market is a rational market. in addition, in the islamic religion, the prophet muhammad had taught and told his people to market their products/goods in accordance with the teachings of islam. the promotion strategies of the prophet muhammad include: having a spiritual personality (taqwa), behaving well and sympathetically (siddiq), having intelligence and intellectuality (fathonah), communicative, transparent and communicative (tablig), serving and being humble (khidmah), honest, trusted professionals, credibility and responsibility (al-amanah), do not like to get worse (su’uzh-zhann), do not like to speak badly (ghibah), and do not commit bribery (risywah). by utilizing the method of promotion through spg media according to the economy in 105international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 99-106 general is valid. because the system used in promotions using spg media has fulfilled the terms and conditions of the general sale and purchase conditions. in this case all have been fulfilled in the syara which has become a provision in buying and selling, which are sellers, buyers, prices, goods, permission and qabul. in terms of islamic economics, the system of product sales carried out by companies using bidding through spg is in in-line with the terms and conditions. because in the principle, the marketing carried out by spg applies a system that is part of the elements that are in accordance with the provisions explained by the prophet muhammad. however, what makes this system a little out of the islamic context is that it is not good enough for the clothes used by spg, because in the marketing system the clothes used by the spg are not in accordance with the provisions in islamic sharia. which is too show the nakedness that should be covered. so that the prospective buyers of the product affect them not because of the quality of the products promoted by spg but from the physical shown by spg. hence, the marketing system carried out by companies in the context of marketing using spg is permissible because it is in accordance with the concept of offers made by the prophet muhammad. nevertheless, in the context of ethics in islam the system by means of spg that uses clothes shows that their genitals are deemed incompatible with the islamic context. the marketing pattern of the company as mentioned above is not permitted in the context of islamic marketing because the process carried out in this system is carried out in a way that emphasizes the aspect of spg-worn clothing that shows its nakedness not because of the quality of the goods traded in the offer. 4. conclusion in the selling/marketing, promotion is the main part of how to make a new product’s marketing successful that half or even the whole society or consumer have not been informed yet about the product. within the promotion, it needs the service of sales promotion girl (spg) with the objectives of introducing the new product to be known by the consumers. spg has to possess the advantage which one of them is a proper communication skill with everyone, as well as possess the inner beauty so consumer can be attracted to buy the product. by using the promotion through the sales promotion girl, according to the economy is permissible in general, as it fulfils the requirements. from the perspective of economic islam, the marketing system applied by a company that uses the offer through sales promotion girl is already in accordance with the requirements and sequences (rukun). because in principle marketing that is run by sales promotion girl, applying a system that is partially in accordance with the provisions explained by the messenger of allah, only, the use of sales promotion girl can violate islamic sharia because of the lack of dress used by spg, because in the marketing system the clothes used the sales promotion girl is not in accordance with the provisions in the islamic sharia. spg is more concerned with big targets and benefits, it is contrary to sharia marketing, which is pursued not only by profit but also by the values of honesty and maintaining the prevailing norms in society. the concept of islamic marketing emphasizes that sales are responsible not only to customers but also to allah swt. references agow, o.

managers in company running. company performances’ information is required by parties with an interest in the company, such as shareholders, creditors, the government, or the public, especially shareholders (isbanah, 2015). measuring the company's financial performance from a financial perspective is very valid, but basic driver of financial value is human capital that consist of knowledge, ideas, and innovations (mayo, 2000). the intellectual capital’s lifeblood is human capital, innovations’ source and improvements’ source, but not easy to measure (sawarjuwono, 2003). human capital can be measure with indicators size, human capital investments, and leverage (scafarto, 2018). commitment in human capital investment can show great results on capital accumulation so it is often a more efficient choice (michael waldman, 2020). financial performance is very important for companies, especially banking companies. there was four commercial banks and four sharia banks that owned by government in indonesia. commercial banks owned by government are bni (bank negara indonesia), bri (bank rakyat indonesia), btn (bank tabungan negara) and mandiri bank . meanwhile, four sharia banks that owned by government are bni syariah, bri syariah, btn syariah and bank mandiri syariah ( www.ojk.go.id, 2018). data from idx.co.id shown that size and human capital investment of bri and btn already increase but there was a decrease in financial performance in 2012-2018. otherwise, bank mandiri experienced an increase in size and human capital investments which was followed by an increase in financial performance in 2012-2018. but the size and human capital can not increase or decrease in financial performance in bni from 2012-2018. leverage also increase and was followed by a decrease financial performance in bank btn from 2012-2018. otherwise, the data of sharia bank owned by government found that size of bri syariah and btn syariah have been increased in 2014, but the financial performance was decrease. the human capital investment of btn syariah was an increase in 2017, but the financial performance was decreased. the leverage of mandiri syariah was decreasing in 2016, but the financial performance was an increase. a decrease in leverage can affect the amount of assets of a banking company so there are obstacles between the return of bank assets and leverage (galo nuno, 2017) some previous research related this study found human capital investment, size and leverage have effect positively on performance of financial (scafarto, 2018). the size of the company had impact on financial performance in positively and significantly (aprianingsih, 2016). the size of the company negatively affected financial performance (isbanah, 2015). other research found that company size have no influence on financial performance (hidayat, 2015). meanwhile, another study found that company size have positive and significant impact on financial performance (stephanie angel claudia rompas, 2018). leverage has a negative impact on financial performance (isbanah, 2015) ; (lestari, 2015). leverage has a significant effect on financial performance (tampubolon, 2015). increased leverage as an action in financial innovation can increase equilibrium leverage and reduce the risk of shortterm liquidity (karel mertens, 2011). human capital have a significant and positive influence on financial performance (khasanah, 2016) ; (nick bontis & massimo ciambotti, 2018). meanwhile, a finding of study found that human capital investment had no impact on financial performance (andriana, 2014). other research also found that human capital investment hadno influence on financial firm (rompho, 2017). increase in human capital can increase company productivity (hongbin li, 2017). the long-term effect of human capital investment is to improve employee skills, thereby increasing company output (rudi rocha, 2017). the findings show that there were a http://www.ojk.go.id/ international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 21-29 23 positive relationship between human capital and company value. it mean human capital can increase the value of the company (irina berzkalne, 2014). human capital investment can be used as a measure of investment returns, cost factors, and economic added value (djojo, 2010). first, the objectives of this research is to determine the relation between human capital investment, size, leverage with financial performance of commercial banks that owned by government. second aim is to find the relationship between human capital investment, size, leverage with financial performance of sharia banks that owned by government. and the last aim is to compare the result of analysis from commercial banks and sharia banks and to identify the most variable that influence on financial performance in commercial banks and sharia banks that owned by government. 2. research method the researchs’ population are state-owned commercial banks listed on indonesia stock exchange and state-owned sharia banks listed on indonesia financial service authority from 2012-2018. the samples in this study is four state-owned banks dan state-owned sharia banks. the sample selection is done using the purposive sampling method with specific criterias such as : 1) banks have financial reports and complete annual reports from 2012 – 2018; 2) banks have complete data based on variables; 3) banks were owned by government or namely stateowned banking. total samples from the criteria above were 8 bank companies with 224 data. this study using quantitative data in the form of financial annual report of banks in the indonesia stock exchange (bei) from year 2012 until year 2018. financial data used include return on assets (roa) as a measure of financial performance, and human capital data measured by size, human capital investments in the form of employee training costs, and leverage. the analysis method for this research is linear regression methods, tests’ classic assumption , determinant coefficient, f-test, t-test. ghozali (2016) said that t test is used to examine the influence of independent variables on the dependent variable size, human capital investment, and leverage on financial performance. the purpose of this study is to study whether every independent variable significantly impact the dependent variable. the f-test aims to find out whether dependent variables jointly influenced by independent variable (ghozali, 2016). the first hyphotesis of research is to determine the impact of company size on the financial performance of state-owned l banks and state-owned sharia banks during 2012 2018. return on assets (roa) was use to measure dependent variable. the independent variable is size with the formula of the total logarithm value assets. there was research by (aprianingsih, 2016) with result that company size has a significant and positive effect on financial performance. so the hypotheses developed in first model are : h1a. size affects financial performance positively and significantly in state-owned banks h1b. size affects financial performance significantly and positively in state-owned sharia banks the second hyphotesis of research was to determine the effect of human capital investment on the financial performance of state-owned banks and state-owned sharia banks during 2012-2018. roa as dependent variable and human capital investment (hci) as independent variable. alkan et al (2008) argue human capital consists skills and knowledge that earned through variety activities of education such as training, schools, courses. in this research, human resource investment is measured based on the total cost of training 24 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 21-29 employees. research conducted by (scafarto, 2018) said that human capital investments has a significant and positive impact on financial performance. based on this research, the hypothesis for second model are : h2a. human capital investments influence financial performance significantly and positively in statedowned banks. h2b. human capital investments influence financial performance positively and significantly in statedowned sharia banks. the third hypothesis wants to see the effect of leverage on performance of financial in state-owned banks and state-owned sharia banks. the dependent variable is roa which is a measurement of financial performance, which is the ratio of net income after tax to total assets. according to (harahap, 2016) leverage is a ratio that illustrates relationship between a company's debt to capital. syamsuddin (2009) argue leverage is a ratio that show the relationship of long-term loans provided by creditors with the amount of capital of company owner. while kasmir (2012: 113) said leverage reflects the relationship between a company's debt to capital. research by (tampubolon, 2015) have result leverage has a positive and significant effect on financial performance. based on this research the hypothesis for third model are : h3a. leverage has a positive and significant effect on financial performance for state-owned banks h3b. leverage has a significant and positive impact on financial performance for state-owned sharia banks 3. results and discussions total samples from the specific criterias was 8 bank companies with 224 data from 2012 until 2018. eight bank companies are bri, bni, btn, mandiri bank, bri sharia, bni syaria, btn syaria and bank mandiri sharia. table 1 show the relation between size, human capital investment (hci), and leverage with financial performance for state-owned banks as bellows table 1 multiple linear

significant significant 2. human capital investment on financial performance significant not significant 3. leverage on financial performance not significant not significant source: processed data this study was found size (company size) had no impact on the financial performance of state-owned banks, but size have significant also positive influence on financial performance of state-owned sharia banks. this results seen from the t value of -1.334 while the significance level of 0.194. significance value greater than 0.05 indicates that the size variable has a negative and insignificant influence on financial performance. this study does not support the first hypothesis (h1a) that "size has a positive effect on financial performance" in stated-owned banks, but support h1b for state-owned sharia banks. the results of state owned banks supported by yuyun isbanah's research ( 2015); (yildiz, bozkurt, kalkan, & ayci, 2013); (januardin manullang, 2019) which states that the variable company size has a negative effect on financial performance variables. meanwhile, the results of stateowned sharia banks supported research by (terraza, 2015); (sudaryanti, sahroni, & kurniawati, 2018) and (sugiarto, 2012) that size have positive influence on financial performance. 26 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(2) december 2019, 21-29 the results of this study mean larger company is not necessarily followed by good financial performance. large or small companies can not be used as a good measure of financial performance. the number of company assets does not necessary to make people believe in the company's performance, so it is not necessary to increase the company's profit. this can be caused by the large size of the company that not supported by good management. human capital investments have significant and positive relationship with financial performance of state-owned banking companies in the 2012-2018. it seen from the t-value of 3.283 while the significance level of 0.004. this study supports the second hypothesis (h2a) for stated-owned banks. human capital investment have no impact on financial performance in stated-owned sharia bank significance level of 0.355. so h2b was not supported. the findings of this study describe that investment in human resources can make the company's financial performance is good, because human capital investments measured by employee training costs in this study. the result of stated owned banks supported with previous research that said human capital have positive impact on financial performance (scafarto, 2018); (ozkan, cakan, & kayacan, 2017); (hamdan, 2018). otherwise, human capital have no impact on financial performance in stated-owned sharia banks supported by research of (andriana, 2014) ; (dominique, 2011); (cabrilo & dahms, 2018); (rompho, 2017). a good investment in human resources will enhance the financial performance of the company. the better training is given to employees, the more capable and competent employees are at their jobs. improved employee competence will certainly be followed by good performance as well. investment in human resources can be used as a benchmark for the public and especially investors. this study also found that leverage have no relationship or impact on financial performance in state-owned banks and state-owned sharia banks. it seen from the t-value of -1.293 while the significance level of 0.211 in state-owned banks. significance value greater than 0.05 indicates leverage variable has a negative and not significant effect on financial performance. this study does not support third hypothesis (h3a and h3b). the results of this study are also not in line with research by wuryaningsih dwi lestari and ika yulianawati (2015); (jummai v. madume 2018); (dwi kartikasari, 2016) states that the variable leverage has negatively impact on financial performance variables. 4. conclusion human capital investments have a positive and significant relation with state owned banks’ financial performance , but there was no impact on the financial performance of state-owned sharia banks. otherwise, size of the company have influence significantly and positively on the financial performance of state-owned sharia bank, but there was no influence on stateowned banks’ financial. leverage have no effect on the financial performance of state-owned banks and state-owned sharia banks. the implementation of human capital investment recommended for state-owned banks, because employee can be more competent on their job with training, knowledge base capability. the better employees can carrying out their work, and the financial performance can increase significantly. state-owned sharia banking should not too concern human capital investment because human capital investment have no impact or no relation with stateowned sharia banks’ financial performance. this research have several limitations and awaits future research. first, this study only investigate the relation of human capital, size and leverage on financial performance, with many others variables such as innovation, structural capital or relational capital that can effect international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 21-29 27 financial performance. the human capital indicator in this study is limited to size, human capital investments, and leverage. further research can use another variables such as wage, sales, and family ceo. in addition, the measurement of financial performance in this study is limited to roa (return on assets). further research can use roe (return on equity) and cr (current ratio) to measure financial performance. acknowledgements we thank to

equitybased financing, profitability of islamic banking doi: doi.org/10.28918/ijibec.v4i1.1980 jel: g 21, g 23 published : dec 2020 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 106-115 107 1. introduction in 2019, the development of islamic banking in indonesia experienced a rapid growth (ojk, 2019), although the macro and microeconomic conditions experienced a slowdown in various regions (bank indonesia, 2019). the growth was driven by multiple factors, ranging from the increasing islamic banking networks, number of third parties’ funds, and financing performance which nationally stimulated growth in the market share. as an intermediary financial institution, islamic banks rely on the distribution of funds or financing to benefit their operations. the islamic bank financing model uses a profit and loss sharing scheme and trade financing. there are differences in risk characteristics between them which also affect the amount of profit. according iqbal and molyneux (2005), this financing distribution scheme is based on the equity-based financing and debt-based financing. based on its characteristics, the equity-based financing benefits will be received by the islamic banks as much as the debtor's business profits following the agreed ratio in the contract. conversely, if the debtor incurs a loss, the islamic banks will also experience a loss. in debt-based financing, islamic banking will earn a definite profit, equal to the profit agreed in the contract. in other words, this system is easy to implement, and the profits can be predicted (van greuning and iqbal 2007; nafik, ryandono, and wahyudi 2018). the statistics of financial services authority (fsa) in 2008-2018 showed the fluctuations related to the portions of equity-based financing (ebf) and debt-based financing (dbf) of islamic banks as presented in table 1. the statistics showed that the share of debtbased financing had a more significant portion than that of equity-based financing in channeling the islamic bank financing. table 1. the financing portions based on equity-based financing (ebf) and debt-based financing (dbf) portion 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 dbf 65.55% 62.82% 81.5% 82.9% 80.9% ebf 32.85% 35.81% 34.64% 35.22% 36.56% source: ojk, processed data table 1 shows that dbf performance increased from 2014 to 2018. likewise, ebf performance also increased from 2014 to 2018 yet only decreased in 2016. healthy and sustainable profitability is significant in maintaining the financial system stability, including islamic banking. profitability is influenced by several factors, such as capital, efficiency, decisions, and management policies regarding to the bank operations. therefore, research on profitability is still relevant to investigate, in addition to the purpose of a business which is to gain profits, due to the business environment changes in response to the presence of digital banking. several previous studies related to the factors determining the profitability showed various results. the different findings in the previous studies were used as the bases of this research. besides, increasing the number of periods and bank samples is also expected to improve the quality of the research results. meero (2015) conducted a study in gulf countries in the period of 2005-2014, comparing the islamic banks with conventional banks based on capital structure and performance represented by roa and roe, the research concluded that there were similarities between them. zafar, zeeshan, and ahmed (2016) found a positive international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 106-115 108 relationship between the determinants’ capital structure and the banking industry's performance in pakistan. meanwhile, the studies conducted in indonesia showed that there were not much different results. andini (2019) examined the debt-based financing and equity-based financing of cash ratio at pt. bank panin dubai syariah ltd. in the period of 2015 2017. the findings indicated that partially and simultaneously, there was no significant effect of debt-based financing and equity-based financing on cash ratio at pt. bank panin dubai syariah ltd. in 2015-2017. latifah (2018) investigated the debt-based financing and equity-based financing of return on equity (roe) at pt. bank shariah jabar banten shows a strong relationship between debt-based financing and equity-based financing on return on equity (roe). the findings of a research conducted by nuha & mulazid (2018), who investigated seven sharia banks in the period of 2011-2015, showed that non-performing financing (npf), operational income operating expenses (bopo), and revenue sharing funding simultaneously influenced roa. wahyudi, mujibatun, and riduwan (2019) investigated the impact of debt-based financing and equity-based financing on profitability with bank size as the moderating variable. this study used islamic bank panel data from the financial statements published in the period of 2008-2017. the findings of this study indicated that debt-based financing had a negative and significant effect on profitability measured using roa and roe. the equity-based financing did not affect the level of profitability measured by the roa and roe of islamic banks, while bank size could not become the moderating variable. indriyanto, iskandar, and deviyanti (2018) conducted a study of debt financing and equity financing on return on equity in islamic banks from 2015-2017. the data were analyzed using a multiple linear regression analysis. the results of this study indicated that: (1) debt financing had a positive and significant effect on roe of bni syariah, mega syariah, muamalat, and mandiri syariah from 2015-2017. (2) equity financing had a negative and significant effect on roe on bni syariah, bank mega syariah, bank muamalat, and bank mandiri syariah from 2015-2017. firdaus dan prasetyo (2017) found that debt-based financing and equity-based financing affected profit expense ratio. the research samples were three islamic banks consisting of bank muamalat, bank mandiri syariah, and bank bri syariah, in the period of 2011-2015. the findings of this study indicated that debt-based financing and equity-based financing partially and simultaneously had a significant effect on profit expense ratio. mariam et al. (2017) also had a similar research on two samples, consisting of bank muamalat and bank mandiri syariah, in the period of 2011-2013. the findings reinforced the previous conclusions that equity-based financing partially had a significant effect on profit expense ratio, while debt-based financing simultaneously affected profit expense ratio. these findings were greatly interesting as equity-based financing contributed more to profitability when compared to debt-based financing. zahara dan islahuddin (2014) also studied the effect of debt-financing and equityfinancing on islamic banks' financial performance in the period of 2006-2010. the results indicated that debt-financing and equity-financing simultaneously affected the financial performance of islamic banks operating in indonesia. meanwhile, debt financing partially had a significant effect on the financial performance of islamic banks. in contrast, equity financing did not affect the financial performance of islamic banks operating in indonesia. debt financing had a positive direction to the financial performance of islamic banks in indonesia. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 106-115 109 in contrast, equity financing had a negative direction to the financial performance of islamic banks in indonesia. the main objective of this study is to investigate equity-based financing and debtbased financing on profitability of islamic banking in indonesia. this research is expected to provide contributions to the theoretical and practical dimensions. on the conceptual aspect, this study can provide evidence whether or not equity-based financing and debt-based financing affect the profitability of islamic banking. meanwhile on the practical aspect, islamic banks in indonesia can find out the extent of their profitability and in turn the competitiveness of islamic banks can be developed in line with or even better than that of conventional banks. 2. research method this study used the panel data population from 14 sharia commercial banks. the samples were taken within the period of 2008-2017. during this period, indonesia experienced and was affected by the global economic crisis. however, of those 13 sharia commercial banks, seven banks (bank aceh syariah, bank victoria syariah, bank bca syariah, bank panin dubai syariah, bank bukopin syariah, bank tabungan pensiunan nasional syariah, and maybank syariah indonesia) were eliminated because data were not yet available in the study period. return on assets (roa) is calculated by dividing the net income on total assets which gives the ratio of income generated from the invested capital. the higher roa, the more profitable the banks are (javaid and alalawi 2018; nahar and prawoto 2017; tian-shyuglee, chih-chou chiu, chi-jie lu 2002). this ratio is widely used as a proxy for profitability. this measure was chosen and extensively used to measure the banking performance (bruggen 2015). besides, return on assets (roa) is one most important and useful indicator of bank profitability (nguyen, ta, and nguyen 2018). in most studies on profitability of commercial banks throughout the world, the proxies for the profitability of commercial banks often use roe, such as (mansour et al. 2018; nguyen, ta, and nguyen 2018). roe is calculated by dividing the net income after tax on total equity (jarbou, 2018). the data were analyzed using a panel data regression analysis with time series and cross-section data. furthermore, the panel data model was estimated and divided into three: common effect, fixed effect, and random effect. the statistical t test is conducted to examine the effect of each independent variable on dependent variable and assume that the other independent variables are constant. the coefficient of determination (r2) is used to figure out the percentage variations of the dependent variables to the model explained by the independent variable. f test is performed to choose the ols methods without dummy variables or fixed effects. the f test is used to determine whether or not the panel data regression technique with fixed effects is better than that without dummy variables by looking at the residual sum squares. 3. results and discussion model estimation and results a. the effect of debt-based financing and equity-based

significant level decision significant independent variables (roa & roe) 2.779771 0.022531 < 0.05 h0.1 was rejected significant effect source: authors (2020), processed data based on the available data, the statistics of f-value was 0.022531 with the p-value of 0.022531 < 0.05 or the critical limit of the study. thus, it can be concluded that h1 was accepted. the accepted h1 in a simultaneous test means that the independent variable simultaneously had a significant effect on the dependent variable. the results of multiple coefficient test determination showed that the response variable was 0.289943. it means that 29 percent of the independent variables used in the model was able to explain the dependent variable. meanwhile, the other 71 percent was explained by the other variables outside of the model, such as cash ratio, profit expense ratio, non performing financing (npf), and operational income operating expenses (bopo) as well as the external factors covering both macro and microeconomics. the test results showed that equity-based financing partially did not affected roe. meanwhile, debt-based financing affected the roe of islamic banking as shown in table 7. it can be seen from the significance value of debt-based financing which was equal to 0.0220 was smaller than the significance level of 5%. these results can be seen from the characteristics of equity-based financing of the islamic banks could also experience loss, while the debt-based financing of islamic banks could earn profits. thus, equity-based financing had more effect on the returns received by the islamic banks. the coefficient value of the debt based financing variable which was negative indicated that when there was an increasing debt financing, there will be also decreasing bank profitability as measured by roe. conversely, when there is a decreasing debt-based financing, there will an increasing profitability as measured by roe. this finding was in line with the research conducted by indriyanto, iskandar, international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 106-115 113 and deviyanti (2018) showing that islamic banking will be more effective if the financing is distributed to the productive sectors when compared to that classified into debt. the results of statistical tests showed that both equity-based financing and debt-based financing partially did not affect roa of islamic banks as shown in table 11. these can be seen from their significance value of respectively 0.3816 and 0.6479 greater than the significance level of 5%. since the financing either ebf or dbf did not have a direct correlation with roa, those related variables should be re-proxied. the coefficient value of debt-based financing variable which was negative indicated that when there is an increasing debt financing, there will be also decreasing bank profitability as measured by roa. conversely, when there is a decreasing debt-based financing, there will be an increasing profitability as measured by roa. this finding was different from that of research conducted by qonitah dan nuha (2018). this finding simultaneously showed that the results of independent variable test consisting of equity-based financing and debt-based financing had a strong effect on the dependent variable, that is, profitability as measured by roa and roe. this finding was similar with that of previous studies (amanda maulidiyah firdaus dan ari prasetyo 2017; anafil windriya 2019; latifah 2018; siti zahara, islahuddin 2014). on the other hand, these results were different from those of the other previous studies (andini 2019; wahyudi, mujibatun, and riduwan 2019). the interesting part in this research finding was that debt-based financing provided more contributions to profitability when compared to equity-based financing as seen from the characteristics of equity-based financing and debt-based financing of islamic banking. ebf is more volatile in term of incomes and losses caused by the profit and loss sharing, while dbf tends to be more constant due to the projected profits. 4. conclusion based on the results of data analysis, it can be concluded that the results of statistical tests showed that the independent variables, consisting of equity-based financing and debt-based financing, simultaneously had a strong effect on the dependent variable. the researchers realized that the main limitation of this study was the large number of data used. the use of more data and measurement panel to the other types of equity-based financing and debtbased financing is expected to provide a more representative of realistic results. references amanda maulidiyah firdaus dan ari prasetyo. 2017. ‘pengaruh debt financing dan equity

email: sepky.mardian@sebi.ac.id abstract this paper analyzes the efficiency of badan aml zakat nasional (baznas) and dompet dhuafa from 2002 to 2018. based on selected input and output, the intermediary approach assumes that baznas and dompet dhuafa act as a link between muzakki (giver) and beneficiaries. furthermore, baznas and dompet dhuafa were selected as decisionmaking units (dmu) from 2002 to 2018, and their efficiency was measured using data envelopment analysis (dea) method under output-orientation with constant return to sclae (crs) and variable return to scale (vrs) assumptions. the results showed both baznas and dompet dhuafa raise the optimum efficiency in the years before 2007. meanwhile, their inefficiency was mostly due to lack of input such as higher personalia (amil/volunteers) expenses. therefore, these findings suggests that both technical and scale efficiency should be improved by adjusting the input. this is to achieve the most efficient and productive level of performance in order to fulfill the institutions' objectives as an intermediary between muzakki and the beneficiaries. this paper is among the pioneers that analyzed the efficiency of zakat institutions from their initial establishment to present. also, existing papers examined data spanning 5 years or less. hence, long duration of data analysis provides a comprehensive evaluation of fluctuations in the zakat institutions efficiency and their supporting or inhibiting factors.. international journal of islamic business and economics available at

june 2021, 16-24 17 1. introduction baznas study found that zakat has a positive effect on indonesia's macro economy, although it is currently recognized that its contribution is still minimal in reducing poverty and inequality (puskas baznas, 2020). meanwhile, zakat is part of the assets that allah obliged to be given with certain conditions (hafidhuddin, 2005). in a broader view, the concepts of zakat, infaq and alms are believed to have a tremendous impact. in western regions such as the united states, a concept has emerged where the economy needs to be based on a spirit of sharing and giving (beik, 2009). the issuance of law no.38 of 1999 concerning zakat management is an important matter in indonesia. initially, it was only done by one individual to another. the issuance of this law encourages muzakki to channel their zakat through its institutions. also, the collection of zakat from year to year continues to increase, although it is still far from the initial potential. therefore, to reduce regulatory problems in the field, law no.23 of 2011 on zakat management was enacted. however, for some people, this law is considered to be too focused on institutions, hence, its substantial aspects are still not regulated (foz, 2012). in the last few years, the zakat management organization has experienced rapid development, and it's growth is a positive signal in indonesia (zahra, harto, & bisyri, 2016). in law no.23 of 2011, there are two types of organizations, namely the national amil zakat agency (baznas) and the amil zakat institution (laz). according to the latest data published by the national zakat agency, it was recorded that there are 557 management organizations which have received official permits in accordance with the regulations of the ministry of religion (baznas, 2018). indonesia is a country with the largest muslim population in the world, hence making it a large potential for zakat. the baznas report states that there are 233,8 trillion rupiah of potential zakat in indonesia in 2019, but this has not been optimally explored (puskas baznas, 2020). although the potential is quite large, the realization of zakat collection is not more than 5% of the existing potential. also, collection in 2018 only reached 8.1 trillion rupiah with an increase of 1.9 trillion from 2017 (puskas baznas, 2020). there is a gap between the number of zakat institutions, the potential, and the amount received. this gap is a challenge to improve their performance. another problem is how to continually increase collection and the effectiveness of it's distribution to the community. therefore, the efficiency of collecting and distributing zakat funds needs to be improved in order to optimize performance (nurhasanah & lubis, 2019). therefore, the goal of increasing efficiency is a mandate of zakat management act. currently, baznas has developed 6 research pillars for strengthening national zakat, namely regulation & institutions, distribution & utilization, collection, operations & finance, national database & coordination, as well as strengthening publication. in the operation and finance pillars, financial ratios are also developed, one of which is the proficiency ratios related to the costs of collection, operations and human resources (puskas baznas, 2020). the development of financial ratios and operations is still benchmarking against conventional ones in commercial institutions. this ratio is an overhead type which may not be directly related to input optimization in non-profit institutions. sometimes even though the overhead costs are high, it however does not reduce the level of their proficiency. for example, the cost of purchasing software can increase effectiveness because it can boost output, such as significantly increasing fundraising. although the costs incurred are large, it does not reduce the effectiveness of non-profit institutions. therefore, an alternative 18 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 16 24 measurement of efficiency is needed for non-profit institutions such as zakat. one of the measurement is the introduction of the data envelopment analysis (dea) method (coupet & berrett, 2019). also, zakat institutions can be considered sound, credible, effective, and proficient when they meet several performance indicators. this performance refers to the objectives and activities in accordance with the needs of the community (fathurrahman & hajar, 2019). research on the efficiency of zakat institutions is important in islamic economics. this is because the institutions are responsible for the management and utilization of public funds, therefore efficiency becomes a controlling tool for performance (alam, 2018). also, to measure efficiency, data envelopment analysis (dea) is applied. the dea obtains more accurate results than ordinary financial ratios such as operational efficiency ratios used for commercial organizations (sari & saraswati, 2017). also, other studies such as akbar (2009), lestari (2015), parisi (2017) and widyaningrum has been carried out using the dea on different objects. the results vary and the efficiency depends on the zakat institution, whether the collection or distribution of funds to mustahik is not optimal. this study is significant due to the longer span, and is more focused on central baznas and dompet dhuafa. previous studies examined several zakat institutions for a few years only and with a long observation period. therefore, this study addresses the years baznas and dompet dhuafa achieved the highest level of efficiency during their establishment. the reasons for selecting these objects are based on two factors, namely having financial statements since the founding year, and having the same input and output variables. baznas was chosen because of its relatively low level of proficiency based on previous studies. therefore, it is necessary to re-examine in order to ascertain efficiency development. also baznas is managed by the government and has the authority to manage and coordinate all zakat institutions in indonesia. however, previous studies found that baznas experienced low level of effectivenes, namely 58.74% (2010) and 55.07% (2011). according to the annual financial reports, the collection of zakat and other charity funds by central baznas for the last 5 years only reached 289 billion rupiah in 2019. this number grew to 177 billion from 93 billion in 2015 (baznas, 2016, 2020). this amount is smaller when compared to other national institutions, such as dompet dhuafa, which raised 379 billion rupiah in 2019. dompet dhuafa was chosen because it has good performance and has an increased efficiency score in 2016 based on the acr ratio, and is managed by the private sector. the baznas 2017 awarded dompet dhuafa as the national amil zakat institution with the best operations. however, based on the calculation of the acr ratio, dompet dhuafa experienced a decrease in the level of efficiency in 2017. meanwhile, previous study found that dompet dhuafa obtained the lowest score of 9.36% in 2010. therefore, selection of the two zakat institutions is to ascertain organizational performance, which is under the government and private sector by assessing the efficiency level since the institution was founded. the results of this study are expected enlighten management and related stakeholders to properly allocate input and output factors in achieving optimal efficiency. also, it is expected to identify the key factors that challenge and improve efficiency during the zakat institution operation since the establishment. this paper is organized as follows: section 2 highlights data and methods, followed by the presentation of efficiency mmeasurement and their discussions in section 3. finally, section 4 provides conclusions and suggestions. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 16-24 19 2. methods this is a quantitative study with a non-parametric data envelopment analysis (dea) approach. secondary data collected from baznas were used, and dompet dhuafa's financial reports from the year of establishment until 2018. this study was analyzed using dea, which is the ccr (1978) and bcc model (1984). dea was introduced by charnes, cooper and rhodes in 1978, and was created as an analytical tool to evaluate the performance of an activity in an entity or organization unit. basically its principle is to compare the input and output data of different data organization (decision making unit). this comparison is made to obtain an effective value, and the analysis can be used for health, education, transportation, manufacturing, and banking studies (nugraha, 2013). to measure efficiency with the dea method, input and output variables needs to be defined in advance based on the approach used. therefore, this study used an intermediation approach with output orientation. the input and output variables used are as follows: table 1. input and output variables with intermediation approach output variable definition source of data output 1 (y) fund disbursed statement of fund input variables definition source of data input 1 (x1) fund collected statement of fund input 2 (x2) personalia expense statement of fund the measurement of efficiency ratio was carried out by comparing the output factor with the input. this assessment is efficient when the value obtained reaches 1 or 100%, and inefficient when it approaches 0. this benchmark is to measure the level of technical efficiency which processing will show 3 (three) conditions, namely constant to scale (crs), increasing to scale (irs) and decreasing to scale (drs). the increasing condition allows the zakat institution to continue improving its output capacity by maintaining existing inputs. meanwhile, the addition of input is not effective because the resources used are not optimal. also, the condition of decreasing demands is that zakat institutions reduce the use of inputs because the amount is not ideal for use. the conditions of the two institutions was compared to assess the level of efficiency in each year of observation. 3. result and discussion findings of efficiency measurement of zakat institution baznas and dompet dhuafa efficiency was measured by data envelopment analysis. in the dea, every dmu is a subject that has a quantitative variable to calculate the efficiency level. dea measures efficiency by comparing the input and output used. furthermore, the efficiency of zakat institutions was measured using the maxdea software based on the output orientation. this was used to find out how efficient the institution is in distributing funds with a certain number of inputs. also, the efficiency assessment was based on whether the value obtained reached 1 or 100% and vice versa, and it is inefficient when it reaches 0. in the dea, it is possible for an institution to have one of the return to scale (rts) conditions, namely irs, crs and drs.

increase in technical efficiency with the crs assumption that was seen to be significant, from 52% to 80%, and also an increase in the efficiency score of 28%. this showed a positive increase when compared to the previous years which showed a low efficiency value. also, in the assumption of vrs, the increase in efficiency occurred in 2003-2004 by 25%. the two assumptions continued to increase till 2005 as indicated by the optimal efficiency value of 100%, and constant rts. furthermore, from table 2, it is shown that there was a significant decline in 20072008. in 2007, baznas obtained the optimal efficient score of 100%, then dropped to 55% in 2008. based on the crs and vrs assumptions, there was a significant decrease in efficiency by 45% in that year. in the intermediation approach, there were irs and drs conditions in baznas. furthermore, irs occurred in early 2002-2004 and 2006 while, drs occurred from 20082018. the irs allows baznas to continue to increase its output capacity by maintaining the existing input. also, adding inputs is not effective because the resources used are still not optimal. therefore, the drs requires baznas to reduce the use of inputs, because the amount is not ideal for use. table 3. dompet dhuafa efficiency trends in 2002-2018 year crs vrs scale rts 2002 100% 100% 100% constant 2003 92% 92% 100% increasing 2004 91% 94% 96% decreasing 2005 96%

in 2002 and 2006. in 2002 to 2005, assuming crs and vrs, dompet dhuafa's efficiency score decreased slightly. in 2003, rts showed irs, and drs in 2004-2005. however, in 2006, the efficiency score increased again and showed an optimal value of 100%. during the observation period, the score fluctuations were low. however, in 2010, based on the crs assumption, the proficiency score obtained was quite low when compared to the previous or following year, which was 69% making it the lowest efficiency score obtained. in 2010, a high amount of rp. 20 billion was spent in building the rumah sehat terpadu. based on the processed data, drs conditions often occured while irs occurred once in 2003 which was because the basis for setting salaries changed from the gregorian calendar to the hijriyah calendar. also, the appraisal performance tools was completed that same year. this tool is used to determine employee performance, and it has implications for career advancement and the percentage of salary increase. in addition, personnel costs are one of the variables used in this study, where there are matters related to amil's salary, allowances and more. discussion badan amil zakat nasional (baznas) the collection of zakat, infaq and alms (zis) funds has increased by 5310.15% in a period of 13 years. in 2005 and 2007, there was an increase in zis fundraising of almost 100%, which was predicted due to a national disaster in indonesia (puskas baznas, 2016). based on data processing on the level of efficiency, baznas achieved a scale of 100% with a constant rts in 2005 and also obtained a constant efficiency score of 100% in 2007. this means optimal performance was carried out by obtaining constant efficiency. apart from the optimal input and output used, the efficient condition in 2005 and 2007 was also influenced by the increase in public awareness to pay zakat through its institutions and also by an increased trust in baznas (puskas baznas, 2016). moreover, the increased collection of funds through baznas was influenced by the existence of regulations related to zakat management in government regulation (pp) no. 14/2014 and presidential instruction no. 3/2014. the former regulates baznas to have the highest member appointed by the president while the latter requires all ministries, stateowned companies (bumn), and all government agencies to pay and collect zakat through baznas (puskas baznas, 2016). in 2003, baznas experienced the lowest efficiency during its establishment with a 22 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 16 24 score of 52% with irs condition. under this condition, the use of inputs needs to be optimized and personnel costs should be reduced. also, the high costs incurred to support amil's activities affected the target of fund distribution in 2003. besides, another factor responsible for this inefficiency are the challenges in fixing the performance of baznas and other zakat institutions which includes the weak quality and quantity of human resources (puskas baznas, 2016). in accordance with law 23/2011, the establishment of amil education and training center, as well as zakat certification is to maximize the functions of baznas. this is because one of the important elements in zakat management is the role of amil, which will increase the confidence of the muzaki. therefore, to improve amil's competence, a standard work's capability is needed. in addition, amil is a unique job sector, hence it should have its own work competency standard (puskas baznas, 2017). studies on the efficiency of zakat institutions showed mixed results and that of baznas which have the same findings occurred in 2012 and 2013 for conditions of drs with zahra et al. research (2016). different results from akbar's (2009) found increasing conditions, while this study found constant conditions. also, a difference occurred in 2008, 2009, 2011, and 2012 in rusydiana, maliha, & alfarisi (2016), which found constant conditions, while this study showed decreasing conditions. dompet dhuafa based on the intermediation approach, dompet dhuafa's efficiency level which reached a constant point of 100% or equivalent to 1 occurred in 2002 and 2006, while other years have not reached optimal efficiency. this means dompet dhuafa effectively carried out the intermediary function of zis. furthermore, the optimal efficiency level in 2006 was supported by synergy of the program between dompet dhuafa and baznas, and also by the large distribution of funds to help victims of natural disasters (dompet dhuafa, 2006). therefore, amil's good performance in managing costs and raising funds created optimal efficiency. also, dompet dhuafa experienced inefficient conditions in other years until 2018. this condition was influenced by the improper use of input and output variables. the large amount of costs incurred for amil zakat caused the output to be non-optimal. in 2017, the theme "spanning goodness/membentang kebaikan" was taken. furthermore, the spirit of spreading kindness was greeted by the increasing interest of the community to become volunteers, therefore leading to a total of 8,481 dompet dhuafa volunteers (ddv) in the last 4 years (dompet dhuafa, 2017). this large number caused more personnel costs to be spent to finance their activities. the results of dompet duafa's efficiency is the same for the decreasing conditions in 2015 and 2016 in fathurrahman & hajar (2019) study. the difference in results occurred in 2012-2014, and different conditions also occurred in parisi (2017) findings between 20102013 with irs, while this study showed decreasing conditions. after conducting comparison matrices on the efficiency findings of baznas and dompet dhuafa in several studies, it was discovered that the conditions were very diverse. this is possible due to the differences in input and output factors, and also in the efficiency measurement approach used. this study used an intermediation approach, while others used a production, input-output approach and more. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 16-24 23 4. conclusion this study evaluated the efficiency of baznas and dompet dhuafa from the time of their establishment to 2018. furthermore, it was shown that the efficiency of both zakat institutions mostly occurred in the years before 2007. the level of efficiency was far from the optimum and showed drs. also, baznas and dompet dhuafa were more in drs conditions. this study explained that there is a difference in the level of efficiency between the years before 2008 and after, which might be due to the amil profession in zakat institutions (adnan, 2017). this led to an increase in personnel costs in either quantity or quality. also, it was further explained that the increase has not been comparable to the output of zis fund collection obtained from 2008 to date. furthermore, the increase in funds distribution by the two zakat institutions has not been satisfactory because the input factors used can increase distribution more than it currently does. this implies that more attention should be given to the input variable by adjusting the personalia expense in order to improve efficiency. references adnan, m. a.

customer loyalty need to be increased. because with such an effort to increase the value of the company. this paper aims to examine the effect of profitability (roa), liquidity (cr) and debt policy (dar) on the value of the company in the indonesian sharia stock index (issi). this research is anstudy explanative with a duration of four years from 2012-2015, in the issi index there are 100 samples taken by purposive sampling technique. data analysis using panel data analysis techniques with eviews 8 software applications. the results of the study show that simultaneously profitability, liquidity, and debt policy affect the value of the company. the determinants of corporate value in the indonesia sharia stock index (issi) agus faisal & izzun khoirun nissa departement of islamic economics and business, uin sunan kalijaga yogyakarta e-mail: agus.faisal@uin-suka.ac.id international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 75-8776 1. introduction the capital market as an intermediary institution connects parties who need funds with those who are over-funded (investors). this role supports the economic stability of a country (arifin, 2007). in addition, the capital market can encourage efficient allocation of funds. the existence of a capital market, investors can choose an alternative investment that provides the return, most optimaleither investment in conventional stocks or islamic stocks on the idx. many considerations must be made in investing, namely by analyzing the company’s performance through financial statement analysis and knowing the liquidity of leading stocks that are expected to provide a high rate of return. there are several variables that can be taken into consideration before investing in the capital market. among them, company value. the value of the company is the price that can be paid by prospective buyers if the company is sold. the higher the value of the company, the greater the prosperity received by the owner of the company (kismono, 2011, p. 83). one of the values of this company can be seen from the price book value (pbv). price book value is a comparison of stock prices with book value per share. a high pbv will reflect a high level of prosperity for shareholders, where the shareholders’ prosperity is the main objective of a company (arfan, 2012, p. 20). variables that can influence company value are liquidity, profitability and debt policy. in a study conducted by nurhayati (2013) liquidity has a negative influence on stock returns. according to ayu (2013) if the company has a high profit, then investors will judge that the company’s future prospects are good and will make the company’s value increase. while debt policy can also be linked to the value of the company. with the existence of debt, the higher the proportion of debt, the higher the share price of the company (sartono, 2010, p. 30). in addition, answering the high public demand for sharia-based investment products, the indonesia stock exchange (idx) in collaboration with the indonesian clearing and guarantee corporation (kpei), the indonesian central securities depository (ksei) has launched fatwa no. 80 concerning sharia stock trading mechanism and indonesian sharia stock index (issi). with the hope that people will no longer hesitate to invest in the capital market. secretary general of the sharia economic community (mes) friderica widyasari dewi considered that the islamic stock market in indonesia showed encouraging growth. sharia stock market share is more dominant than non-sharia at the end of 2015. it can be seen from the number of shares on the indonesia stock exchange that fall into the category of sharia shares as many as 318 securities or 61 percent of the total shares. the event was held the launch of the indonesian sharia stock index (issi) or the indonesia sharia stock index (issi) which is intended to be a reference for investors in investing in islamic stocks. with the launch of this index, it helps eliminate the misunderstanding of the people who consider that islamic stocks only consist of 30 shares included in the jakarta islamic index (jii) (okezone finance, 2015, chap 1). 2. theoretical profit information information is a component of a company’s financial statements that aims to assess management performance, as well as to help estimate the earnings ability of representatives in the long term, forecast profits, assess risks in investing or credit, predict future cash flows and have great influence for users in making a decision. as stated in the statement of financial accounting consept (sfac) number 1 that earnings information is generally a major concern in assessing the company’s performance or management accountability and earnings information helps the owner or other international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 75-87 77 parties to assess the earning power company’sin the future. earnings information is an indicator of the company’s success in carrying out its activities, so investors often use it as a basis for making investment decisions (moniaga, 2011, p. 433). beaver (1968) found evidence that earnings announcements have earnings information content that affects investor reactions as reflected in changes in the price and volume of shares of the company concerned. bamber (1986) states that the effect of the information on annual earnings announcements also concludes a positive market reaction, which is reflected the price and volume of shares traded increased after the earnings announcement. thus the disclosure of earnings information with high profitability is a manifestation of the success of the company’s performance and is a positive signal for investors to invest in the company. increasing profitability means increasing the share price / corporate value reflected in pbv. signal theory mm assumes that everyone both investors and managers have the same information about the prospects of a company. this is referred to as symmetric information (symmetric information). however, in reality managers often have better information than outside investors. this is referred to as asymmetric information,and it has an important influence on optimal capital structure (brigham and houston, 2011, p. 84). because there is an asymmetric information , the manager tries to signal investors. the signal must be something that can be trusted and not easily imitated or expensive to imitate. in the capital structure policy, the signal given is in the form of using a larger portion of debt in the company. only a truly strong company dares to run the risk of experiencing financial difficulties when the portion of corporate debt is relatively high. so the high debt portion is used by managers as a signal that the company has reliable performance. investors will judge companies that have a higher portion of their debt at prices that are more expensive than companies that have a low portion of their debt (arifin, 2007. p.81). signals according to the financial literature are actions or policies that will burden the signaling company of a large cost to be able to make outsiders uninformed to believe in what is conveyed. the signal becomes credible if other companies that do not have the performance that the signaling company has are difficult to imitate the signal. a good company can provide signals in the form of a high debt portion on its capital structure. companies that do not perform well will not dare to use large amounts of debt because if it is done then the probability of bankruptcy will be high (arifin, 2007, p. 98). in theory, the signaling assumption is that there is asymmetric information between managers and shareholders. this model appears based on the idea that company managers whose financial prospects are really good cannot deliver reliable information to infestors at no cost, because the delivery of information from good companies can be replicated by companies whose prospects are not good. investors know that companies that are not good will be encouraged to deliver information as conveyed by companies with good prospects, so investors will be distrustful of announcements about the company’s prospects, as a result the company will have the same prospects in the eyes of investors, nothing better than the others (arifin, 2007, p. 121) investments in a sharia perspective investment is a commitment to a number of funds or other resources at this time, with the aim of obtaining a number of future benefits (tandelilin, 2001, p. 3). in islamic economics, investment is influenced by the increase in expected profits and the level of zakat on unproductive funds (diana, 2008, p. 12). investment can be done in various ways, one of which is investment in the international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 75-8778 capital market in the form of shares. shares are securities that represent equity participation in a company. while in sharia principles, equity participation is carried out on companies that do not violate sharia principles, such as gambling, usury, producing prohibited goods such as beer, and others. according to the national sharia board (dsn), shares are proof of ownership of a company that meets the criteria of sharia stock and does not include shares that have special rights. the basic principles of islamic stocks are as follows: 1. characteristically musyarakah if offered on a limited basis. 2. is mudharabah if it is offered to the public. 3. there should be no difference in the type of stock, because the risk must be borne by all parties. 4. principles of profit and loss profit sharing 5. unable to be disbursed unless liquidity selling and buying of shares in islam is basically a form of mudaraba syirkah, between entrepreneurs and owners of capital are both endeavors which will later be shared. mudharabah, is a funding technique whereby capital owners provide funds to be used by the deficit unit in productive activities on the basis of loss profit sharing. mudharabahcomes from the word al-darb, which means literally to travel or walk. criteria for shares included in the shariah index based on the fatwa of the national sharia board (dsn) no. 20 are issuers whose business activities do not conflict with sharia such as: 1. gambling businesses and games that are classified as gambling or prohibited trading. 2. the business of conventional financial institutions (riba) includes banking and conventional insurance. 3. businesses that produce, distribute and or provide goods or services that are moral and harmful. company value based on the theory according to iryanti (2014), the value of a company is the selling value of a company as a business that is operating. there is an excess selling value above the value of liquidity is the value of the management organization that runs the company. the market because the value of the company can provide maximum shareholder prosperity if the company’s stock prices increase. the higher the stock price, the higher the prosperity of the shareholders. to achieve this, investors generally hand over their managers to professionals such as managers or commissioners. in achieving the goal of maximizing the value of the company through the decisions taken. brealey ra (2009), argues that the value of a company can be interpreted as the company’s selling value or value added to shareholders. according to brigham (2011) maximizing value means considering the effect of time on the value of money, the funds received this year are worth more than the funds received years to come and means also considering various risks to income streams. the value of the company in this study was confirmed through price to book value (pbv). the value of the company reflects the size of the stock market reaction to the company. the greater the value of the company reflects the public has valued stock prices above the book value (cristine, 2013, p. 194). for this reason, the majority of owners have an interest in the value of the company which can be done by pressing management to maintain the company’s reputation which has an impact on the rising costs incurred by the company to provide information to the public. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 75-87 79 profitability profitability is the ability of a company to make a profit in relation to total assets and own capital. there are three ratios that are often used, namely:profit margin, return on assets (roa), and return on equity (roe). this study uses theratio return on assets (roa)to calculate the level of profitability of the company against the use of assets or assets used. the higher the roa value, reflects the use of company assets that are optimal in generating profits. (ima, 2014, p. 30). the concept of profitability in financial theory is often used as a fundamental performance indicator of a company representing management performance. generally profitability has a causal relationship to the value of the company. this causality relationship shows that if the performance of a company management is measured using the dimensions of profitability in good conditions, it will have a positive impact on the decisions of investors in the capital market to invest their capital in the form of equity participation. this will have an impact on the value of a company. this means that the higher the level of corporate profitability, the greater the value of the company (sartono, 2010, p.121). according to hermuningsih (2013) there are several factors that influence the profitability of a company including: type of company, age of company, scale of company, price of production. liquidity liquidity is one of the main considerations carried out by a company to distribute dividends. assessments can be carried out for several periods so that the development of company liquidity over time (bambang, 2013, p. 45) is seen. the liquidity ratio can be measured using current ratio which will certainly affect the value of a company. information about the company’s cash flow is useful for users of the report as a basis for assessing the company’s ability to generate cash and assess the company’s need to use cash flow. thus, increasing corporate liquidity will provide a positive signal and increase investors’ confidence in the dividend payment policy expected by investors (nurhayati, 2013, p. 45). debt policy debt policy is the use of a source of funds that has a fixed burden (debt) to finance investment in the hope that debt will provide additional profits greater than the fixed costs, so that it will increase the profits available to shareholders (sartono, 2010, p. 263). debt policy is proxied by the leverage ratio which is measured using a debt to equity ratio (dar). research conducted by mardiyati (2010) states that debt has a positive effect on firm value. while this research is in line with the research conducted by ika (2013) that debt policy has a significant effect on firm value. this positive direction means that the higher the debt policy of a company, the higher the value of the company. issi (indonesian sharia stock index) issi is a stock index that reflects all islamic stocks listed on the idx. the issi constituency is an entire sharia stock listed on the idx and registered in the list of sharia securities (des). the issi constituency is reviewed every 6 months (may and november) and published at the beginning of the following month. the issi constituency is also updated if there is a new sharia stock listed or written off from des. the calculation method of the issi index uses a weighted average of market capitalization. the basic year used in issi calculation is the beginning of the issuance of des, which is december 2007. the issi index was launched on may 12, 2011 (okezone finance, 2015, chap 2). 4. literature review as a supporter of this research there are several scientific works of tertaduhu researchers which are related, among others, are leni’s (2014) research, he tested the effect of capital structure, international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 75-8780 profitability, and company size on corporate values in the indonesia stock exchange period 20102012. the results of his research show that the capital structure has a negative and significant effect on the value of the company, profitability has a positive and significant effect on the value of the company and the size of the company does not affect the value of the company. setyowati and nursian (2014) conducted a study on the influence of profitability, dividend policy, and corporate social responsibility (csr) on corporate values (empirical studies on manufacturing companies listing on the stock exchange in 2009-2012). the results of his research are profitability and corporate social responsibility have a significant effect on company value and dividend policy does not have a significant effect on the value of the company. mardiyati et al (2012) conducted a study on the effect of dividend policy, debt policy and profitability on the value of manufacturing companies listed on the indonesia stock exchange (idx) for the period 2005-2010. the results of this research are dividend policy has no significant effect on firm value, debt policy, dividend policy does not have a significant effect on firm value, while profitability, company performance, and investment decisions have a significant positive effect on the value of the company. research conducted by mahendra (2012) found that profitability had a significant effect while other variables such as liquidity and debt policy were not significant to the value of the company. while research according to febrianti (2013) found that profitability was not significant to the value of the company. ika (2013) also conducted research on profitability influence, dividend policy, debt policy, and managerial ownership on corporate values (empirical study on manufacturing companies listed on the indonesia stock exchange (bei) for the period 2009-2011). the results of his research are profitability and dividend policy have a positive and significant effect on firm value, while debt policy and managerial ownership have no significant effect on the value of the company. moniaga (2013) regarding the capital structure, profitability and cost structure of the corporate value of the ceramic, porcelen and glass industry in the 2007-2011 period. the results of his research show that the capital structure, profitability and cost structure simultaneously do not have a linear relationship with firm value. ima (2014) conducted a study on the effect of firm size, profitability of corporate social responsibility, institutional ownership, sales growth, and capital structure on company value (empirical study on property companies that entered the sharia securities list group 2009-2012 period). the results of his research are the size of the company and the profitability have a significant positive effect on the value of the company. social responsibility, institutional ownership, sales growth and capital structure have no significant positive effect on the value of the company. from some previous studies, the difference in this research lies in the variables and the existence of an index comparison. the additional variable is located in the independent variables in the companies included in the issi 2012-2015 period. thinking framework to make it easier to understand this research, the framework of thinking is made as follows: international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 75-87 81 table 1 research variable variable ratio formula profitability return on asset (roa) liquidity current ratio (cr) leverage (debt policy) debt to equity ratio (dar). company value price to book value (pbv) 5. research methods this research includes explanatoryresearch, research that aims to obtain information, information about things that have not been known before. the population in this study arecompanies go public listed on issi. the sampling method used purposive sampling technique, with the following criteria: a. companies registered with issi for 4 consecutive years in 2012-2015; b. companies registered at issi which have the highest 80 market capitalization; c. companies that publish their annual financial statements and use their eyes rupiah in the company’s financial statements for the period 2012-2015; d. have complete data about the variables used in the study. after the screening process is obtained, there are 25 samples in issi. data is taken from the company’sannual reportpublished on www.idx.com, thewebsite company’s official, and other media. data analysis techniques data analysis was processed using a program eviews 8. the first was descriptive statistical analysis. then panel data regression analysis with linear regression equation: y = a + b 1 x i + b 2 x 2+ b 3 x 3 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 75-8782 where: y = company value x 1 = liquidity x 2 = profitability x 3 = policy of debt a = constant b 11st , b, 22nd , b, 33rd = partial regression coefficient for theindependent variables to estimate panel data selected several equation models: common effect model, fixed effect model and random model effect. for choosing which model to use in the study, determining the best model is done with three tests (widarjono, 2012, p. 30): chow test (chow test) to choose between pooled least square or fixed effect model, hausman test (hausman test) to choose between fixed effect model or random effect model, test lagrange multiplier (lm) to select the equation between common effects / polled least squared and random effects. lm counts with the formula: where: n : number of companies t : number of periods e2 : average number of squares residuals e2 : number of squared residuals then testing the hypotheses that are carried out are: significance test f (simultaneous), coefficient of determination, t test (partial) to the group of companies listed on issi. 6. results and discussion descriptive statistics descriptive statistics are used to explain generally the characteristics of data which include, mean, median, minimum, maximum, etc. here are the results: table. 2 the results of data data descriptive statistics on the issi index sample: 1 100 pbv cr roa dar mean 5.141760 2.551770 0.216760

on issi in vulnerable times from 2012-2015, totaling 100 data. from this table pbv can be seen as a maximum of 58,481 owned by pt unilever tbk in 2015 and a minimum value of 0.054 owned by pt. aneka tambang tbk in 2012. liquidity (cr) has a maximum value of 9,717 belonging to pt.media nusantaratbk in 2014 and a minimum value of 0.14800 owned by pt astra internasional tbk in 2012. profitability (roa) has a minimum value of 0.002 owned by pt xl axiatatbk and the maximum value of 1.258 owned by pt unilever tbk in 2013. while the minimum debt policy (dar) of 0.136 conducted by pt indocement tunggal prakarsa tbk in 2015 means the lowest value of debt used by the company during this study period is approximately 0.136 while the maximum value 3,762 was carried out by pt indofood cbf sukses makmur tbk in 2013. selection of regression models in issi index significance of common effect or fixed effect chow test or likelihood ratio-test to determine which is better between common effect models and fixed effects. the basis of decision making is done by looking at the value of chi-square crosssection probability. if the probability value is less than 5% alpha, it means that a good panel model to use is a fixed effect model, and vice versa if the probability is more than alpha> 5%, then the common effect model is used. table 3 chow test effects test statistic d.f. prob.

value of random cross-sections. if the probability is less than alpha 5%or the results of thetest are hausman significant, then the fixed effect model is used. conversely, if the results of thetest are hausman more than 5% alpha, or the results of the hausman test are not significant then the random effect model is used. table 4 hausman test test summary chi-sq. statistic chi-sq. d.f. prob.

hausman test show the probability value of a random cross-section of 0.0015, smaller than alpha 5%. therefore, a model that is better used is fixed effect. lm test (multiple langrange) calculates the lm value calculated as follows: the lm value is calculated then compared with thevalue of the chi squared table with the degree of freedom (degree of freedom) as much as the number of independent (free) and alpha variables or a significance level of 5%. if the lm value counts>chi squared table, the model chosen is the random effect, and vice versa if the lm count f table, so it can be concluded that all independent variables together (simultaneously) affect the dependent variable. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 75-87 85 coefficient of determination table 7 value adjussted r2 weighted statistics adjusted r-squared 0.138276 source: secondary data processed, 2017 adjusted r2 of 0.138276, which means 13.82% of the variation in the value of the company can be described independent variables. while the remaining 86.18% is explained by other variables. t test (partial test) based on table 4.9 above, the results of data processing for t test can be interpreted as follows: a. the value of the firm’s value constant shows the number of 2014.138 which states that if the independent variable is considered a constant, then the value of the company is equal to 2014.138. b. the profitability variable has a probability value of 0.9653 with a coefficient of -0.00951. this value shows a number greater than 0.05 (0.9653> 0.05) which means that the profitability variable does not significantly influence the value of the company (pbv) at 5% alpha. so that it can be concluded that the profitability variable does not significantly influence the value of the company. c. the liquidity variable has a probability value of 0.0002 with a coefficient of 0.41196. this value shows a number smaller than 0.05 (0.0002 <0.05) which means that the liquidity variable has a significant effect on the value of the company (pbv) at 5% alpha. so it can be concluded that the liquidity variable has a significant effect on the value of the company. d. the debt policy variable has a probability value of 0.0001 with a coefficient of 6.255821. this value shows a number greater than 0.05 (0.0001 <0.05) which means that the debt policy variable has a significant effect on the value of the company (pbv) at 5% alpha. so it can be concluded that the debt policy variable has a significant effect on the value of the company. 7. interpretation analysis and results effect of profitability on company values on the issi index the regression test results show that profitability has no significant effect on firm value. this is evident from the results of the t test profitability has a significance level of 0.9653 with a coefficient of 0.41196. this research is not in line with research conducted by yuniasih and wirakusuma, ulupui (2013), and susila (2013) who found that roa has a positive and significant effect on firm value. however, this research is in line with the research of nur sasongko and nila wulandari (2015) which states that roa has no significant effect on firm value. no influence on profitability (roa) on company value can be caused by the use of inefficient company assets.aruh profitabilitas effect of liquidity on firm value on issi index regression test results show that liquidity has a significant effect on firm value. this is evident from the results of the debt policy t test has a significance level of 0.0002 with a coefficient of 0.41196. thus 0.0002 <0.05. according to information content theory, financial statements are said to be information content if the publication of the financial statements creates a market international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 2(2) december 2018, 75-8786 reaction. according to husnan, this market reaction will be indicated by a change in the price of the securities concerned (mahendra, arum and suarjaya, 2012, p. 10). the influence of debt policy against corporate value in the issi index the regression test results show that debt policy has a significant effect on firm value. this is evident from the results of the debt policy t test having a significance level of 0.0001 with a coefficient of 6.255821. this is in line with the signaling theory, that a company that has good performance means having good prospects in the future will give a signal with high debt to its capital structure, here the average dar is quite high, reaching 0.443 and vice versa if the company lacks good prospects then the company will not dare to have a high portion of debt. 8. conclusions and suggestions this study examine the effect of profitability (roa), liquidity (cr) and debt policy (dar) on the value of the company in the indonesian sharia stock index (issi). from the results of data analysis, it can be concluded that: a. the effect of profitability (roa) on company value (pbv) on companies listed in the indonesian sharia stock index (issi) in 2012-2015 shows negative but insignificant results. b. the effect of liquidity (cr) on company value (pbv) on companies listed in the indonesian sharia stock index (issi) in 2012-2015 showed significant positive results. c. the effect of debt policy (dar) on corporate value (pbv) in companies listed on the indonesian sharia stock index (issi) in 2012-2015 showed significant positive results. limitations in this study are using secondary data from 2012-2015 on observations of 100 samples on the issi index. then the use of profitability (roa), liquidity (cr), and debt policy variables, with the possibility that there are still many other variables that affect the company’s value such as investment opportunity set, institutional ownership, dividend policy, etc. the results of this study are expected to be able to provide information and trigger subsequent research that has similarities with regard to the limitations that exist in this study. among them are broader variable selection, company sector selection, stock index and selection of sample criteria so that it can provide variation in research. references ang, r.

(ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 116-126 117 1. introduction innovation in the field of technology is overgrowing in this era (duffett & duffett, 2015). at present, the innovation development of fintech is becoming a tough competitor in the banking sector in the world (vives, 2019). the rapid growth of technological innovation has triggered the growth of technological innovation in the financial industry. in indonesia, financial technology began to overgrow with the emergence of many start-up financial technologies that began to enliven the market. the new normal era faced by the world helped trigger the development of the fintech industry faster. prevention of covid-19 transmission has caused many industry sectors to change the way in serving customers and choosing digital platforms as the most appropriate choice. the physical distancing launched by the government makes business with digital platforms a great opportunity to reach a broader market quickly. the fintech sharia industry that uses digital services also has equally good opportunities. in indonesia, there are currently 51 information technology-based lending and borrowing service providers (fintech) listed by the ojk as of may 2018 (ojk, 2018a). data compiled by the majority of financial services also states that fintech growth occurred in indonesia by seeing an increase in the number of users, starting with lenders, borrowers, and loan amounts(ojk, 2018b). the development of financial technology can also be seen from the anticipation of government incentives to deal with the possibility of problems in the financial technology industry, such as the issuance of the financial services authority’s regulation number 77 / pojk.01 / 2016. various kinds of fintech are very helpful during the pandemic to the new normal era. for examples, lending services offered by fintech companies like investree and tunaikita could help these small firms to get loans at a lower cost with digital-friendly services that outstrip conventional banks (wardhani & bohman, 2020). digital payment platform linkaja teamed up with the it ministry to launch online shopping payment solutions in 18 traditional marketplaces throughout jakarta. lazada teamed up with indonesian fintech start-up alumak to provide quick, small loans for merchants to keep their businesses afloat during the covid-19 pandemic (mulia, 2020). as a country with a moslem population as a majority according to data released by bps, sharia finance with a halal concept in transacting becomes a special attraction (bps, 2018). inevitably, the emergence of the star up fintech sharia has certainly enlivened the financial technology market lately. twenty-six start-ups have been registered with the indonesian sharia financial technology association. a balanced amount between sharia fintech and conventional to fight for the same market makes sharia fintech must develop a marketing strategy to control moslem consumers in indonesia. the development of conventional finance during the moslem community is due to a lack of knowledge about sharia financial technology. consumer knowledge about products is needed to generate intentions in their use, even in financial technology. one of the factors that influence consumers’ intention to use products is influenced by attitudes, while one of the factors that influence attitudes is knowledge about the product (wang et al., 2020). this study analyzes how much knowledge about the product will affect intention-touse sharia financial technology. this research can be the basis for marketing, such as determining the marketing strategy of sharia financial technology, shrinking sharia financial technology marketing programs, etc. this research is beneficial in dealing with the new normal era, which forced the financial industry to migrate to digital platforms. the renewal https://www.investree.id/ https://www.tunaikita.com/ https://theconversation.com/traditional-banks-are-struggling-to-stave-off-the-fintech-revolution-124201 118 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 116-126 offered in this research is a fresh object of research to be studied because islamic fintech is an object that appears in the current era of economic disruption. the new thing in this research is the new normal era term time. there is not much research in the new normal era yet. investigating the intention to use sharia financial technology is important to determine consumer behaviour in the new normal era. 2. research method this study uses a quantitative approach. the preparation of the hypothesis in this study is based on a construct built from established literature. two hypotheses were arranged in testing. because the model is linear and allows for mediation relationships, mediation testing is done after hypothesis testing. in testing the hypothesis, data collection is carried out through online surveys. sampling in this study does not have a sampling frame, so it is categorized in nonprobability sampling. sampling in this study was conducted by purposive sampling in the type of judgment sampling. judgment sampling is a non-probability sampling method. participants are selected based on the experience of individual beliefs that they will qualify in the study (hair, celsi, oritinau, & bush, 2013). sampling criteria in this study were respondents who were over seventeen years old, moslem, and had not used sharia fintech services. the total questionnaires distributed were 60 questionnaires. hypothesis development much research examines the influence of knowledge on attitude formation. knowledge about product affects consumer attitudes (teng, wang, & wang, 2015). knowledge differences will result in a change in attitude, so positive knowledge will result in a positive attitude as well (agüeria, terni, baldovino, & civit, 2018). individual knowledge about information correlated with the attitude formed (hinduan, suherman, pinxten, alisjahbana, & hospers, 2013). based on previous research, this study also tried to investigate the influence of knowledge about sharia financial technology on attitudes, so that the following hypothesis was built. h1: knowledge of financial technology has a positive influence on attitudes to using sharia financial technology the study of the influence of attitudes on intentions has been done before. the intentions explained that attitudes (mohaidin, wei, & ali murshid, 2017; rahman, a. a, 2017; teng et al., 2015). based on these previous studies, the hypotheses built in this study are. h2: attitudes towards sharia financial technology influence the sharia financial technology’s intention-to-use demographic data of respondents table 1 presents the demographic information of respondents. one-third of the respondents are male, and two-thirds are female. the majority of respondents aged 21-30 years with a percentage of 58%, while respondents at least aged 17-20 years as much as 2%. respondents aged 31-40 years were 28%, and respondents aged > 40 years were 12%. table

of respondents' expenditure was idr 4,000,001 – idr 5,000,000 as much as 3%. from these data can also be obtained information that respondent expenditure < idr 1,000,000 as much as 13%, expenditure in the range of rp.3,000.001,00-rp.4,000,000.00 and idr 4,000,001 – idr 5,000,000 as much as 7%, and respondents spend > idr 5,000,000 as much as 33%. the table also reveals respondents’ data based on education level. the largest respondents were s2 graduates with a proportion of 48%, while the least was s3 educated as much as 2%. respondents with an undergraduate degree are 33%, and high school is 17%. validity and reliability of the research instrument validity testing was conducted in this study to see accuracy in measurements. constructions that have good validity are constructs that do not have errors in their measurements (hair et al., 2013). construct validity in this study was carried out using factor analysis. the factor analysis test is carried out by testing keizer-meyer-olkin (kmo) and bartlett of sphericity. kmo values are categorized into four categories. kmo values of 0.50.7 are categorized as moderate, 0.7 are categorized good, and values above 0.9 are very good (li, zhang, tong, tong, & liu, 2011) the kmo value in this study is 0.903, which is categorized as very good in the adequacy of the sample. bartlett of sphericity value in this study is 0,000. this value can be interpreted that the matrix is not an identity matrix because α = 0.05> 0,000. the bartlett of sphericity value means that factor analysis can be used. 120 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 116-126 reliability is measured by calculating the value of cronbach alpha. reliability is built by testing consistency and stability (sekaran & bougie, 2016). consistency is indicated by how well items to measure concepts are used together in a device. from the test results, we obtained three values of cronbach alpha for each variable. the cronbach alpha value for variable product knowledge is 0.882. for the attitude variable of 0.965, and the intention variable of 0.969. all cronbach alpha values are higher than 0.7 so that they can be analyzed as reliable research instruments. 3. results and discussion result there are two tests of influence done in this study. the first test in this study was to test that knowledge of sharia fintech has a positive effect on attitudes towards sharia financial technology. at the same time, the second test is to test that the attitude towards sharia financial technology has a positive effect on the intention to use sharia financial technology. the results of this test are presented in table 2. in the first test, the r-value of 0.795 is the correlation between the variable knowledge of sharia fintech and the attitude towards sharia fintech. the correlation values are categorized as strong values, and positive values indicate that the direction of the relationship is positive. from these values, it can be interpreted that knowledge of sharia fintech is closely and positively related to the attitude towards sharia financial technology. the r-value in the second test is 0.631 and is positive. this value is categorized as a strong relationship. from this value, it can be interpreted that the value of attitudes towards sharia fintech is closely linked and has a positive direction with the intention to use sharia fintech. r2 is a percentage of the variation in the dependent variable described by the independent variable. if the r2 value is 1, then the independent variable is used in full in predicting the dependent variable. in testing the first hypothesis, r2 is obtained at 0.631, and the adjusted r2 is 0.625. from this value, it can be interpreted that variables of knowledge about financial technology explain 62.5% of attitudes toward sharia fintech, and other variables besides knowledge explain 37.5%. in testing the second hypothesis, r2 is obtained at 0.399, and the adjusted r2 is 0.388. from this value, it can be interpreted that the attitude towards sharia fintech explains 38.8% of the intention to use sharia fintech, and other variables besides attitude explain 61.2%. table 2. determinant coefficient and adjusted r square, result of t-test, and f-test knowledge about sharia fintech attitude determinant coefficient and

amounting to 0,000 at a significance level of 5% (0.05). because of the sig. t value is 0,000 <0,05; it can be interpreted that knowledge of sharia fintech is based on attitudes towards sharia fintech. the value of 0.795 shows that the magnitude of the effect of the variable knowledge about sharia fintech affects the attitude towards fintech sharia by 0.795. in testing the second hypothesis, the regression coefficient value is 0.631, with t count of 6.202, and a significance value of 0.000. attitudes towards sharia fintech affect the intention to use fintech sharia; this is because of the value of sig. t is 0,000 <0,05. the magnitude of the influence of attitudes towards sharia fintech on the intention-to-use sharia fintech is 0.631. the f test was also carried out in testing hypotheses. f test is done to find out whether a variable affects other variables. f ratio is the division of mean square and means square residual. from the test results, it is found that the f value for the regression test variable knowledge about sharia fintech has a value of 99.374 with a value of 0.000 significance smaller than 0.005. from these results, it can be interpreted that the knowledge of fintech sharia will affect attitudes. the results of the f test for variable attitudes have a value of 38.468 with a significance value of 0.000, which is 0.005 smaller. from the results of these tests, it can be interpreted that the attitude influences the intention to use sharia fintech. mediation test this study examines whether there is an indication of the mediation relationship of the three existing variables. mediation testing is done by estimating three regression equations. first, test the influence of knowledge about sharia fintech and attitudes. by looking at the beta coefficient, it can be seen that the knowledge of sharia fintech has a regression coefficient of 0.713 with a significant value of 0.000 smaller than 0.005. in the first condition of achieving mediation, the independent variable is expected to influence the mediator with a coefficient of ≠ 0 significantly, so the results of this calculation are stated to fulfil the first conditions for achieving mediation (baron & kenny, 1986). second, test the effect of variable attitudes on the intention to use sharia fintech. from the beta coefficient value, it can be seen that the variable attitude has a value of 0.752 with a significance value of 0.000 smaller than 0.05. third, to test the effect of knowledge variables on sharia fintech on the intention to use sharia fintech. from the test results, obtained the regression coefficient value of 0.761 with a significance value of 0.000 smaller than 0.005. the second condition of achieving mediation, the independent variable, is expected to significantly affect the dependent variable with a regression coefficient of ≠ 0. therefore the results of this calculation are declared to fulfil the second requirement of achieving mediation (baron & kenny, 1986). the results of the mediation test that examines the effect of knowledge on sharia fintech on attitudes, attitudes to intentions to use, and knowledge of sharia fintech on intentions to use are presented on the appendix. fourth, test the multiple effects of product knowledge variables and attitudes on intention. the results of the test of these influences 122 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 116-126 are given in table 6 on appendix too. variables of knowledge about products and attitudes have a positive and significant effect on the intention to use with beta coefficients of 0.150 for product knowledge variables and 0.534 for attitude variables. in the third condition of achieving mediation, the mediator variable must significantly influence the dependent variable with the regression coefficient ≠ 0 (baron & kenny, 1986). besides, the influence of the independent variable on the dependent variable must be lower than the mediator variable to the dependent variable. then the result of this calculation is, the attitude variable is stated to fulfil the mediation requirements. based on these equations, it can be interpreted that the mediation in this study because the influence of independent variables on the dependent variable is lower in the third equation (c’) compared to the second equation (c’). mediation in this equation is categorized as partial mediation because the coefficient c ‘is reduced but remains significant (c’ ≠ 0) discussion this research proposed and examined knowledge and attitudes as factors that predict intention-to-use sharia fintech—also investigating the existence of a mediating relationship to the knowledge of sharia fintech with the intention-to-use sharia fintech. the positive influence of respondents’ knowledge about fintech sharia on their attitudes towards sharia fintech indicates that knowledge influences attitude formation. the more knowledge about fintech sharia, the better their attitude towards fintech syariah. the results of this study corroborate previous research, which concluded that knowledge about products has a positive effect on attitude formation (agüeria et al., 2018; jørgensen, 2017; mohaidin et al., 2017; rios, riquelme, & abdelaziz, 2014; williams, rana, & dwivedi, 2015). with the new normal era, due to the pandemic, the prospect of the digital financial industry has risen dramatically. all financial companies seize this opportunity, so the fintech sharia industry must also participate because the new normal era is a big opportunity for the digital sector. enrichment of customer knowledge can be done through promotion and education. with these two steps, the customer will have product knowledge. increasing knowledge levels will affect increasing other variables that contribute to behaviour (wang et al., 2020). education should not only be done in the potential fintech market, namely the younger generation. the younger generation is a good fintech market because of the characteristics of the younger generation, who are digital natives (hawkin & mothersbough, 2014). fintech marketing to the older generation needs to be more active because this generation is more difficult to adapt to technology even though the older generation is a potential market because of its large numbers and good financial capabilities. the establishment of consumer attitudes by providing knowledge about sharia fintech is needed. the knowledge given can be in the form of knowledge about the characteristics that distinguish sharia fintech from those that are not sharia, knowledge of the features of services provided by sharia fintech, knowledge of the operational processes of sharia fintech, and the knowledge that sharia fintech can help in solving financial problems. the new normal era can also be used as a reason to intensify the importance of digital finance in marketing programs through knowledge transfer. attitudes have a positive effect on the intention to use. the results of this study, the attitude of respondents has a positive effect on the intention-to-use sharia fintech. the international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 116-126 123 better the attitude of the respondents, the higher their intention-to-use sharia fintech. this result is in line with previous studies that mention the same thing. namely, the attitude formed by prospective consumers will affect the intention to use a product (abd rahman, asrarhaghighi, & ab rahman, 2015; kuciapski, 2017; mohaidin et al., 2017; rahman, a. a, 2017; spacey, goulding, & murray, 2004; teng et al., 2015; weerasinghe & hindagolla, 2018). changing consumer behaviour is not only done at the individual level because the group level has a significant effect on behaviour change. the intention to do something in the group will have an impact on changing the behaviour of the individuals in the group (valleman, 2015). creating the intention to use sharia fintech can be done by shaping consumer attitudes. the attitude that is formed includes the realization that sharia fintech is useful, good, valuable, and enjoyable when used. with the existence of a positive attitude, the intention-to-use sharia fintech will also be good. the intention to use is formed in the form of willingness to use, a sincere feeling to use, a desire to use, and a desire to consider using. this study indicates of mediation so that the mediation test of the research model was conducted. the results of the survey reveal that there are indications of partial mediation. partial mediation that occurs gives the meaning that knowledge about fintech will make prospective customers intend to use sharia fintech. however, the intention to use sharia fintech will be formed even stronger when potential customers have a positive attitude towards sharia fintech. the study, along with its findings, has provided additional insights into an intention to use sharia fintech. although indonesia has been one of the frontrunners in the development of fintech in southeast asia, not all individuals who use conventional banking system have similar perception towards sharia fintech. the study suggests such intention to use sharia fintech is determined by knowledge about product and attitude. the results imply customers’ intention to use sharia fintech are still dependent on opinions from significant others and social trends. fintech creates new ways that give them the agility needed to rapidly create and deliver new solutions during covid-19 pandemic era. sharia fintech has been developing new offerings and making certain platforms more easily accessible to help individuals cope with the effects of covid-19. the collaboration between fintech firm, the banking industry and government is needed to support the use of sharia fintech during a pandemic and the new normal 4. conclusion this study proposed and investigated the intention to use sharia fintech. by looking at the theory and data analysis about knowledge about sharia fintech, attitudes, and intentions to use sharia fintech, it can be concluded that knowledge about products has a sufficient contribution to help shape the intention of consumers to use fintech sharia. consumer attitudes are important in forming intentions to use. in this study, the attitude has a positive influence on the intention to use sharia fintech services. from the results of the mediation test, the results of partial mediation are obtained. knowledge of sharia fintech directly influences the intention to use sharia fintech. however, the intention to use sharia fintech will be stronger if the attitudes of prospective consumers are also positive. some of the recommendations offered in this study are to market the sharia fintech 124 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 116-126 business, which is to increase marketing efforts through education about products offered to prospective consumers. with promotion about sharia fintech, the services offered, the difference with the services that are fintech sharia and sharia fintech trust is intended to form a positive attitude on sharia fintech services. thus the intention to use sharia fintech by itself will be formed. also, companies that are engaged in sharia fintech should conduct further studies regarding other factors that influence attitudes. in the new normal era, a number of online promotional programs can be carried out by sharia financial technology businesses. online promotion will help consumers to find out more about everything about sharia financial technology. covid -19 momentum are potential to improve fintech faster because the advantages of technology this research recommendation for further research is that further research should be able to use other variables or add an independent variable in investigating the intention-touse. other studies can also examine how much the intention to use the sharia fintech service in the formation of consumer behaviour.

(hameed et al., 2004). the achievement of maqashid sharia can be seen from three dimensions, namely: jalb al-maslahah (attaining public interest), tahdhib al-fard (individual education), and iqamah al-adl (creation of justice), where the three factors are universal. the other words of these three dimensions are that welfare requires national banks to be able to design education and training programs with moral values so that they will be able to improve the abilities and expertise of employees. justice where islamic banks must ensure fairness and honesty in all transactions and business activities included in the product, all interest free activities. islamic banking must develop social services and investment projects to improve the people’s welfare. there are still few studies that use the islamic maqashid index as a research variable. among those who examined the islamic maqashid index is deegan et al. (2002), hossain et al. (2006), othman et al. (2009), sunarsih & ferdiyansyah (2017) and salman et al. (2018). however, these studies examine the effect of company performance as measured by company performance and the islamic maqashid index on the level of corporate social responsibility disclosure. the current study is different from previous studies, in that it uses the maqashid sharia index as the dependent variable. performance measurement in the modern era is not only measured by financial aspects, but can also be seen in non-financial aspects such as corporate governance, intangible assets, economic value added, and other performance measures (ulum, 2007). the application of good governance requires principles to be used as guidelines so that the implementation runs as desired. the principles of good governance according to the bank indonesia regulation no.8/4/pbi/2006 are: accountability, fairness, responsibility, transparency, and independency. the application of islamic governance also requires guiding principles, while the principles of islamic governance are: deliberation, justice (‘adalah), relationship (ukhuwah), trust, accountability (mas'uliyyah), and transparency (tabligh). islamic governance in relation to banking is a management system designed to improve compliance with legislation and ethical values that apply in general, to improve the performance of banks, and protect the interests of stakeholders. therefore to realize this, banks through corporate governance mechanisms form a sharia supervisory board (ssb). in indonesia it is known as the dewan pengawas syariah (dps). international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 51-62 53 the role of the sharia supervisory board (ssb) in the implementation of islamic governance is very important, namely as a party that supervises and ensures that an islamic bank is in operation in accordance with sharia principles. its members consist of experts in the field of islamic jurisprudence who know general knowledge in the field of banking and other capabilities that are relevant to their daily tasks. the sharia supervisory board in overseeing the operations of islamic banks must refer to the fatwa of the national sharia council of the indonesian ulema council to ensure the suitability of bank products and services with the provisions of the fatwa islamic banking is currently growing rapidly and is part of financial conditions in the islamic world. however, there are two important realities to be observed in the life of islamic banking in indonesia. first, islamic banks have not reached a market share of 5 percent. second, there is a decline in islamic banking compliance with sharia principles. therefore a development strategy is needed through the implementation of islamic governance. this study is motivated by the results of previous research studies, because previous studies showed inconsistent or conflicting results, including the relationship between islamic governance and the maqashid islamic index. studies by muttakin & ullah (2012), mollah & zaman (2015), meilani (2015), and endraswati (2017) provide empirical evidence that islamic governance has a positive effect on the temporary maqashid sharia index. kholid & bachtiar (2015) cannot explain the relationship between islamic governance and the maqashid sharia index. on the other hand, endraswati (2017) also revealed that the number of sharia supervisory board did not have a positive effect on the performance of company reports. given the above gaps, this study seeks to carry out the same research as the research sample in the form of islamic banks in indonesia for the 2013-3017 period. the study of the islamic governace has the aim of providing empirical evidence regarding indicators that are thought to affect the maqashid sharia index. this study seeks to prove empirically the influence of characteristics of sharia supervisory board on the maqashid sharia index, with indicators consisting of number of members ssb, double positionss of members of the ssb, ssb member meetings, educational background of members of the ssb on maqashid sharia index. this research is also expected to be able to provide theoretical and practical contributions to islamic banking policies in indonesia. in addition, it is also expected to provide additional theory and literature in current maqashid sharia research. based on gaps in previous studies and the importance of providing the same research results, this study aims to obtain empirical evidence of the influence of the characteristics of the sharia supervisory board on the maqashid sharia index. 2. research method this study uses panel time dimensions, namely sharia commercial banks in indonesia in the period 2013 to 2017. this type of research uses research design to test hypotheses, namely by testing the dependent variable, namely the performance of the maqashid sharia index which is influenced by characteristics of sharia supervisory board (ssb) with indicators of reflection on the number of ssb members, double positions of ssb members, number of ssb meetings, and educational background of ssb members. this research indicator refers to previous studies such as mukhibad (2019), endraswati (2017), almutairi & quttainah (2016), mollah & zaman (2015), kholid & bachtiar (2015), muttakin & ullah (2012), farook et al. (2011), and ghayad (2008). the dependent variable of this study is the maqashid sharia index. the maqashid sharia index can be defined as the level of the bank in achieving its objectives. the maqashid 54 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 51-62 sharia index in this study took a measurement developed by mohammed et al. (2008). according to mohammed et al. (2008), the purpose of islamic banks will be right if they are derived from the objectives of sharia. the steps in measuring the performance of maqashid sharia are as follows: population and samples the population used in this study are all islamic banking companies in indonesia. sampling in this study using purposive sampling technique. purposive sampling where there is a determination in sampling, so there are certain criteria in determining the sample. the criteria are as follows: (1) islamic banking financial institutions, namely sharia commercial banks registered at bank indonesia. (2) the sharia commercial bank publishes annual financial reports in the period 2013-2017 consistently and has been published on the website of each islamic bank. (3) islamic banks have the required data related to the international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 51-62 55 measurement of the variables used for research during the period 2013-2017. by using purposive sampling, this study obtained 11 islamic banks from panel data of 55 (11 x 5 years). technical data analysis data were analyzed using the partial least square (pls) approach through smartpls version 3.0, stages. data analysis techniques include: factor analysis, validity and reliability assessment, r2 and q2 assessment, and hypothesis testing. 3. results and discussions agency theory is used to explain the relationship between two research variables. theory agency was first developed by (jensen & meckling, 1976). agency theory explains the relationship between principal and agent. the principal is the party that gives the mandate to the agent to act on behalf of the principal, while the agent is the party given the mandate to act on behalf of the principal. this will require any action to the principal. agency theory requires a separation between the principal and the agent, which triggers the existence of asymmetric information where the agent has better information about the organization than the principal. faozan (2013) defines good corporate governance as a mechanism for good organizational governance in managing organizational resources efficiently, effectively, economically or productively with the principles of openness, accountability, responsibilty, independence and fairness in order to achieve goals organization. good organizational governance can be seen in terms of the internal mechanism of the organization or the external mechanism of the organization. the internal mechanism is more focused on how the leadership of an organization regulates the running of the organization in accordance with the above principles. meanwhile, the external mechanism emphasizes how the organization's interactions with external parties run in harmony without ignoring the achievement of organizational goals. maqashid is the plural form of the word maqshud which means purpose. understanding of sharia is all that has been determined and explained by allah to his servants both related to maslahah, aqeedah, and law (siddiq, 2009). maqashid as-sharia means the intent and purpose of islamic law. according to the term maqashid sharia is identical with the term islamic legal philosophy. so it can be concluded that maqashid assharia is the intent or purpose of islamic law. in the opinion of experts in general that these goals are a problem for humanity. this study shows that the initial sample of the bank before being selected based on the criteria is 13 sharia commercial banks for five years. based on predetermined criteria, there are 2 banks that have incomplete annual reports in 2013-2017. the following are the names of sharia commercial banks in indonesia which are the research subjects included in the sample criteria: based on data obtained from the financial services authority with predetermined criteria, there are 11 sharia commercial banks in indonesia in 2013-2017 which will be sampled and processed in this study. sample of this study are bca syariah, bank jabar banten syariah, bni syariah, bank syariah mandiri (bsm), bank bukopin syariah, bank victoria syariah, maybank syariah, bank mega syariah, bank muamalat indonesia, bank panin dubai syariah, and bri syariah. 56 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 51-62 descriptive analysis this study uses a descriptive statistical analysis model. descriptive analysis will provide a description (description) of a data, including the average (mean), maximum value, minimum value, standard deviation of each data or variance which is a measure of variability; minimum and maximum values. the following are the results of descriptive calculations that are processed using smartpls version 3.0. based on table 3. it can be seen that overall the average number of members of the sharia supervisory board is 2.38. this study has the minimum number of the sharia supervisory board members of 2 people and at most 4 people. this indicates that 11 islamic commercial banks in indonesia have complied with bank indonesia regulation no.6/24/pbi/2004 article 26 (1) which states that the number of the sharia supervisory board members is at least 2 people and a maximum of 5 people. double positionss in the sharia supervisory board have an average value of 1.02. this value exceeds 1. this indicates that out of 55 data used, the sharia supervisory board held double positionss according to pbi regulation no. 11/33/pbi/2009, where the sharia supervisory board members may only hold double positions as a members of the sharia supervisory board as many as 2 banking institutions and 2 non-bank sharia financial institutions. the sharia supervisory board members are prohibited from concurrently as a consultant in all islamic bank. one of the sharia supervisory board member is allowed to hold a position as a member of the dsn. the average of sharia supervisory board meetings is 1.55. this value is close to number 2. this indicates that the average sharia supervisory board in sharia commercial banks has complied with pbi no. 11/33/pbi/2009, where at least once a month or in one year at least 12 meetings are held. the average value of the educational background variable of members of the sharia supervisory board is 2.05. this value is close to number 2. this shows that the average educational background of members of the sharia supervisory board has complied with bank indonesia regulation no. 6/17/pbi/2004 article 28 paragraph 2 and 3 which states that the sharia supervisory board members who have competence are those who have knowledge and experience in islamic muamalah and banking or finance in general. according to mohammed et al. (2008), the purpose of a sharia bank will be appropriate if it is derived from the goal of sharia. islamic banks is not only to maximize profits, but also to have a role in the social sector. this resulted in the measurement of the international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 51-62 57 performance of islamic banks to be more complex. performance measurement of maqashid sharia based islamic bank is a process to determine whether islamic banks can achieve the goals of islamic banks derived from maqashid sharia. the average of maqashid sharia index in indonesian islamic commercial banks in 2013-2017 based on table 3. is 0.268855 with a standard deviation value of 0.71496. the minimum value of the maqashid sharia performance index for indonesian islamic commercial banks in 2013-2017 is 0.2712. the highest maqashid sharia performance index is 0.35737. convergent validity testing for convergent validity is done by paying attention at the value of outer loading of each research indicator. this study uses rule of tumbs above 0.5 as a condition for each indicator to meet convergent validity. the outer loading test results are shown in the following description and some indicators that have a low score less than rule of tumbs 0.5 must be eliminated. furthermore, a summary of the results of outer loading for the indicators of each variable under study is presented in the following description based on table 4, the results of loading factors on the characteristics of sharia supervisory board variable indicate that there are 2 (two) indicators that have low convergent validity below 0.5, namely double positions of ssb members (x1.2) and sharia supervisory board member meetings (x1.3). the loading factor of double positions of ssb members (x1.2) is 0.15. meanwhile the loading factor number of ssb meetings (x1.3) is 0.813. these two indicators must be eliminated from the measurement of variables. meanwhile, the results of loading factors from the maqashid sharia index variable as the dependent variable indicate that there are 2 indicators that have low convergent validity, namely education (y1.1), and public interest (y1.3). education indicator (y1.1) and public interest (y1.3) must be eliminated from the measurement of the maqashid sharia index variable, because both have a loading factor below 0.5 which is equal to 0.416 and 0.127. after eliminating the indicators that do not meet the requirements in the convergent validity test, the indicators used in measuring the variables are as follows: table 5 second outer loading no indicators outer loadings 1. number of ssb members (x1.1) 0.858 2. educational background of ssb members (x1.4) 0.741 3. justice (y1.2) 0.896 58 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 51-62 discriminant validity in this study, discriminant validity testing is done by paying attention at loading and cross loading. the term of discriminant validity indicates that the variable correlation value in itself must be greater than the correlation with other variables. the table below shows the cross loading values for each indicator: table 6 the results of discriminant validity variables x y number of ssb members (x1.1) 0.923 -0.283 educational background of ssb members (x1.4) 0.853 -0.208 justice (y1.2) -0.281 1.000 based on table 6, each indicator of the research variable has the largest cross loading value on the variable itself compared to the value on the others. it is implied that it can be stated that these indicators have good discriminant validity in preparing their respective variables. reliability test reliability testing is done using cronbach alpha and composite reliability. cronbach alpha and composite reliability are used to measure the reliability of reflexive measurement models. the rule of tumbs in this study for reliability testing was 0.70 as in the hair et al. (2011). based on the results of the reliability test obtained good results, all variables have more scores than rule of tumbs 0.70 (table 7). thus it can be concluded that all variables in the measurement model have good reliability. table 7 the results of reliability test variabel composite reliability cronbach alpha ims 1.000 1.000 characteristics of sharia supervisory board 0.739 0.882 based on the data presented in table 7, it can be seen that the composite reliability values of all research variables > 0.7. these results indicate that each variable has met composite reliability so that it can be concluded that the overall variable has a high level of reliability. based on the data presented above in table 7, it can be seen that the cronbach alpha value of each study variable is > 0.7. thus these results can show that each research variable has met the requirements of the cronbach alpha value, so it can be concluded that the overall variable has a high level of reliability. structural model testing results (inner model) the main criterion for assessing the inner model is to look at the value of determination (r2). in the previous chapter, it was explained that r2 value of 0.75, 0.50, or 0.25 for endogenous latent variables in structural models can be described as either strong, medium, international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 51-62 59 or weak. in the current study, the results obtained are that r square (r2) in the model where the maqashid islamic index as the dependent variable is higher than the model where characteristics of ssb is an independent variable. the value of r2 in the model with the maqashid sharia index variable as the dependent variable of 7.9% indicates that the model is weak so that the research model cannot explain the effect of the maqashid sharia index variable on sharia commercial banks of 7.9% while the remaining is 92 , 1% is explained by other variables outside the research model. thus it can also be stated that there are still other variables outside the model that need to be considered with regard to the factors that influence the maqashid sharia index. predictive relevance (q2) is a goodness of fit test of the structural model used. the resulting value is greater than zero (q2> 0) which indicates that the exogenous construct has predictive relevance for the endogenous construct (hair et al, 2011). predictive relevance (q2) is 0.079 or 7.9%. in accordance with the criteria of hair et al. (2011), then this model shows that exogenous constructs have predictive relevance to endogenous constructs because they have a q2 value greater than zero hypothesis testing results testing the hypothesis of direct influence (h1) is done by looking at the values on the path coefficients that show the parameter coefficients and t-statistic values. the research hypothesis is supported if the absolute t-statistic value is greater than 1.96 or p-value is less than 0.1 (table 8). table 8 the results of hypothesis testing hipothesis original sample t statistic p values h1 -0.281 2.583 0.010 it showz absolute t-statistic values of 2,583 greater than 1.96 or p values of 0.010 less than 0.05. this means that h1 is accepted. the inner weight coefficient value of -0.281 shows that characteristics of sharia supervisory board (x) has a negative effect on the maqashid sharia index. discussion in bank indonesia regulation no. 11/33 / pbi / 2009, the sharia supervisory board (ssb) has the duty and responsibility to provide advice to the directors and supervise the activities of the bank in accordance with sharia principles. ssb in this study uses the characteristics of the number of ssb and ssb educational backgrounds. a sharia supervisory board that has better knowledge and experience shows that ssb has a reputation that will encourage improvements in the oversight function. this concept is supported by mutakin and ullah (2012) who find that the greater number of dps members is proportional to the better performance of the board because the board has high experience and expertise and extensive social networks. the more ssb members will increase the level of compliance of islamic banks. different findings were obtained by usamah (2010), kholid & bachtiar (2015), mukhibad (2019) who failed to prove the effect of the number of members of the sharia supervisory board on the islamic maqashid index. the results of the analysis carried out using smart pls show that characteristics of sharia supervisory board has negative effect on the maqashid sharia index directly. this can 60 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 51-62 be seen from the t-statistic value which is greater than 1.96 which is equal to 2.583. in other words, islamic governance which reveals the role of the sharia supervisory board more broadly has an impact on the governance of sharia banking, but with the linkage of the sharia supervisory board which is so great that the maqashid sharia index is getting lower. the results of the study stated that the characteristics of the ssb had a negative effect on the maqashid sharia index. however, the results indicate findings that are with previous studies. the higher the reputation of ssb members results in monitoring becoming weaker, because ssb cannot carry out its functions properly due to the overwhelming busyness of the members. other findings in this study are to show that a small number of ssb members who have sufficient experience and knowledge are able to do positive things through better supervision so as to lead to a better level of islamic sharia compliance. supervision that is carried out properly will reduce agency problems conducted by islamic bank management, so that the maqashid index in islamic banks will be better. 4. conclusion an important finding is that the characteristics of the sharia supervisory board (ssb) negatively affect the maqashid sharia index. this finding is very interesting because it turns out that the number of council members is too much ineffective in improving the performance of sharia maqashid. likewise, the higher the reputation of the board members actually results in low maqashid performance, because the reputation is identical with the busyness of the members of the board so that it is not effective in monitoring. the limitation of this study is that there is still a small influence between the independent variables on the dependent variable, so it requires additional other variables in testing the performance of maqashid sharia. in addition, from collecting data it is obtained that the data relating to the islamic maqashid index in islamic banks is incomplete in the annual report. another study finding is that education and training costs are not separated in the income statement and other comprehensive income. future studies can add other indicators to measure the characteristics of the sharia supervisory board, and other variables such as the amount of financing. future studies can also increase the observation period, because the longer the observation interval, the greater the chance of getting better research results. references almutairi, a. r. and quttainah, m. a.

this paper analysis the persistence of shock and volatility of both islamic and conventional financial markets, as well as the natural correlation between those markets. this study used the bivariate bekk-garch (1,1) model to examine the persistence of shock and volatility based on the daily prices in dubai islamic capital market (sukuk index) and conventional stock market (dfm index). the results showed that both sukuk and stock market indices were affected by their own news, while the volatility was persistent during the period of this research. the study also found a negative correlation between prices in both sukuk and stock markets during the dubai debt crisis indicating that islamic bonds were considered as a good portfolio diversifier. this study defines the natural correlation between the daily prices of both sukuk and stock market, unlike the other studies which used returns. in addition, the empirical results might be valuable for investors and market makers to ensure a

(ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 95-105 1. introduction the last decades witnessed a wide expansion of islamic finance, which is part of a consistent and integrated framework which considers finance as a supporting factor in the smooth functioning of real economic activity. it has offered a wide series of financial products developed to meet the requirements of a specific group of people, in a way which does not compromise their religious and ethical beliefs. the mechanism of islamic capital market is rather different from the familiar capital market. financial actors are guided by legal norms laid down in the legislation of the country, like for conventional market, but not only, they are also committed to respect meticulously the rules prescribed in the holy quran. under this law, all islamic financial transactions must be free of the following (nikonova,t et al , 2015; elfakhani and hassan ,2005 ) : (a) the interest is prohibited (rhiba); (b) the risk should be shared; (c) the speculative behavior is prohibited (maysir); (d) use of asymmetric information is banned (gharar); (e) the contracts should be respected; (f)trade transactions allowed by the islamic norms should be financed only by halal industries. due to the excellent investment opportunities, and the large choice of both conventional and islamic investment tools offered in emerging markets such as malaysia and the middle east countries, investors are attracted to those markets more than ever. and it is known that volatility is one of the most attractive characters of emerging market, and investors know that they are likely to make huge profits if they understand the mechanism of such markets, and how the islamic investment products interact with their conventional counterparts. this is why it is essential to understand the nature of the relationship between shariah compliant tools and stocks and how investors can profit from the specificity of the link between them. indeed, forecasting financial markets correlations and volatility persistence have gained an enormous importance from investors, policy makers and different practitioners in finance worldwide, that is given to the huge impact of a good modelling process and a meticulously drawn previsions from academic researchers as well as from market makers to shed the light on the investments opportunities offered in the markets. thus, both conventional and islamic markets are becoming more and more decorticated for a better understanding of every little part of their mechanisms, and that attention to the volatility investigations is vital for a more efficient portfolio’s management strategy. in addition, the fact that the volatility is varying over time and that its persistence is depending on the development of the market its self and the time series as well, may be the biggest challenge for the researchers and econometrician when investigating volatility of a given equity or market. one area of islamic finance that attracted and continues to attract lot of interest on the part of the business community worldwide is the global sukuk market. so, what are these unconventional bonds? what characteristics do they have to their conventional counterparts? how has this sector prospered? and what are the challenges facing it? to clarify the picture, it is necessary to define these financial instruments, underlining the main characteristics that distinguish them from traditional bonds. in addition, to understand all aspects of the subject, it is crucial to reveal the development of the global islamic sukuk market since its first appearance. sukuk صكوك plural of sakk صك is an arabic term meaning certificate. in financial sense, sukuk refer to shari’ah-compliant bond, according to the islamic financial services board, these financial tools can be defined as a certificate representing a proportional undivided ownership right in tangible assets, or a pool of predominantly tangible assets, or a international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 95-105 97 business venture (isfb, 2009). sukuk can be of many types (fourteen eligible sukuk types have been identified by the accounting and auditing organization for islamic financial institutions (aaoifi). there are requirements for sukuk to be considered in compliance with the shariah law, the most fundamental characters are as follow (godlewski et al.,2013) : first, the certificates must represent ownership in tangible assets, usufructs or services from revenue-generating firms. second, payments to the investor come from after tax profits and finally, the value repaid at maturity date should follow the current market price of the underlying asset. the sukuk market in the mid-1990s. the first attempt to resolve the liquidity problem faced by islamic banks has been done by the central bank of malaysia in 1983. so, the bank started its work without using the interest from government securities, and instead launched government investment certificate, representing privacy bonds. in 1992, the malaysian government has issued $ 600 million sukuk bonds in international markets (rezaei, 2013) the graph below shows the sukuk issuance from 2001 to 2016. we notice that the sukuk market grew sharply from 2001 until 2007 when the global prices have far exceeded us$ 25 billion. however, in 2008, the market showed a decline of about 30%,due to uncertainty in the global capital market as a result of great recession in 2008. nevertheless, islamic bond prices recovered in 2009, because, the global economy has just tried to convalesce from the crisis. furthermore, it is noticed from the graph below, the overall sukuk prices are increasing during the post crisis period. in 2012 sukuk market registered the biggest expansion. nevertheless, the prices fall again from 2013 to 2016 due to the overall economic distress worldwide. figure1: total sukuk issuance 2001-2016 source: iifm newsletter, march, 2017 in order to face the sukuk market challenges, the standardized contracts need to be endorsed by the shari-ah board of islamic infrastructure institutions such as aaoifi1, iifm2 and ifsb3 in order to give it an international dimension and acceptability in court litigation (muhammad, 2008). despite the efforts of islamic finance standard setters, in many countries the industry is governed by a regulatory and supervisory framework developed for conventional finance. therefore, it does not fully take into account the special nature of islamic finance (al-maraj, 2014). moreover, apart from the regulatory and tax aspects, the main challenge of islamic finance is based on innovation to offer products that meet both 1 aaoifi: accounting and auditing organization for islamic financial institutions 2 iifm international islamic financial market 3 ifsb islamic financial services board 98 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 95-105 the criteria of compliance with regulations, compliance with islamic precepts but also financial and economic profitability. from a regional point of view, the gcc countries are experiencing a significant evolution in the islamic finance industry, and we fund that dubai is looking after the highly privileged position of being the centre of islamic sukuk in the middle east, and one of the major players in islamic finance worldwide along with malaysia and the united kingdom. the ambitious initiative toward transforming dubai into a global centre for islamic sukuk aims in the first place at making dubai a hub for the islamic finance undustry and therefor contributing to the attraction to a huge liquidity to the dubai financial market, hence potentially also transforming dubai into the world capital of islamic finance. 2. literature review islamic financial tools have notably grown, feeding the debate on these alternatives financing instruments. el khalichi et al (2014) investigate the efficiency of islamic benchmarks and their conventional counterparts, by testing the random walk hypothesis using variance ratio tests. their results show that islamic indices have the same level of (in) efficiency as conventional ones. while connoly et al (2005) investigate the linkage between islamic and conventional market, the author claim that stock–bond market correlation decreases with the increase of stock market uncertainty, suggesting that bonds could be a better hedge against stock market downturns. also, chiang et al (2016) shows that stock and bond prices tend to move in the same direction. el alaoui et al (2015) use wavelet analysis, attempting to analyze the co-movement dynamics at different time scales of islamic dubai financial market (dfm-uae) index returns with their counterpart regional islamic indices returns. their study’s results divulge that closer market tend to have contagion effect, showing higher correlation and higher interdependence with a certain time delay. in addition to that, others ( naifar ,2015 ; sclip et al., 2016) , look at the topic from a volatility perspective. naifar, n.(2015) explore the dependence structure between islamic bonds yields and stock market returns and volatility in the case of saudi arabia. the author use three archimedean copula models namely gumbel, clayton, and frank. the research’s result show that the dependence structure between sukuk yields and stock market volatility are symmetric and linked with the same intensity. from the same perspective, sclip et al.(2016) show that volatility linkages between sukuk and regional market indexes are higher during financial crisis. the researchers argue that given the lower volatility of sukuk compared to equity, sukuk could be a good diversifer for investor’s portfolio. further, the use of the multidimensional garch (mgarch) models in financial market studies has been numerous. we can mention earliest work of bollerslev (1990) about the changing variance structure of the exchange rate regime in the european monetary system, assuming the correlations to be time invariant. lien and luo (1994) evaluated the multi-period hedge ratios of currency futures in a mgarch framework. karolyi (1995) examined the international transmission of stock returns and volatility using different versions of mgarch models. finally, this research paper attempts to identify whether there is any impact of islamic bonds on international stock market volatility, using a pile of time series econometric methods in order to add a scientific value proven by tests statistics. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 95-105 99 3. research method the researchers use the daily data of dubai islamic capital market (sukuk index) and conventional stock market (dfm index) prices, extracted from the thomson reuters i deal rating database and investing database respectively, from the period of 01/04/2009 to 29/12/2017. extending our univariate-garch(1.1) allow to estimate variance-covariance matrix, we specify the mean equation of the sukuk and stock market prices series as follow: where: psu, pst : are vector of definite prices of sukuk and stock market series, respectively. , : are the autoregressive coefficient in the conditional mean equation for sukuk and stock marlet prices. , : are the long drift coefficient. , : are the residuals. (baba-engle-kraft-kroner)bekk-model, acronym refers to specific parameterization of the multivariate garch model developed by engle and kroner(1995). the simplest bekk representation for the n*n conditional covariance matrix ωt takes the form: whether: can upper triangular n*n matrix , a and b are unrestricted n*n matrix, and quadratic representation automatically guarantees that ωt is positive definite. we can show our diagonal bekk-garch(1.1), n=2 as follow : hence, the diagonal bekk-garch(1.1) is : 4. results and discussions 4.1. unit root test: table 1: unit root test

refer to random walk with drift, to check the stationarity of our variables we use two of the most popular unit root test, as shown in table 1. from the result of both pp and adf tests, we notice that our variables are not stationary at level and have unit root because their probability is higher than the critical value, but at the first difference, they became stationary. 4.2 co-integration test:

estimates and the conditional variance-covariance estimates, respectively. first, fascia3.1 shows that one period lagged sukuk price explaine the changes in current sukuk price , same for the stock market index. this means means that historical prices are represented by actual prices which is coherent with efficient market hypothesis (timmermann, a., & granger, c. w.2004). second, the fascia3.2 part of the table show that we see that arch ( β ) and garch (σ derives positive estimates which are statistically significant at 1% level. we can say that conditional variance of both sukuk and stock market are sensitive to their own past shocks, and their volatility are persistent and vary progressively over time. further, the volatility of sukuk is found to be driven mainly by the forecast variance (garch term) than the past shocks or news (arch term), which is consistent with rahman et al (2013). this result suggests that any innovation will have a significant effect on the prices fluctuation of both sukuk and stock markets of the dubai financial market and will international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 95-105 101 take some time before the prices gradually return to equilibrium. the volatility of the dubai stock market can be attributed to the dubai debt crisis. in fact, the government borrowed 80 billion dollars in short delay (four year) to transform the landscape of the city aiming to be the new real estate and tourism hub. but this incredible challenge was not without consequences, the dubai real estate sector suffered from a high property depression in the global scale and without any surprise this event had repercussion on the stock market, represented by the volatility of the dubai stock market general index (dfm) prices. moreover, we examine conditional correlation between sukuk and dfm in order to observe how their prices behave in relation to each other. -1.2 -0.8 -0.4 0.0 0.4 0.8 1.2 250 500 750 1000 1250 1500 1750 2000 cor(sukuk,dfm) conditional correlation figure2: conditional correlation of the sukuk and stock market indices: from the figure we notice that for the first three years (1000days) the correlation is varying between positive and negative coefficient, the relationship between our two assets is extremely volatile and tends to vary between 0.92 and -0.92. further, this volatility is due to the nature of the sukuk that are hybrids between action and bond, and that result is coherent with sclip, a et al (2016). also, the negative dependence between our two equities can benefit the investors, and can provide good portfolio diversification, this is consistent with (naifar, 2016) study’s results. the volatility persistence of the trading assets is due to the dubai financial market crisis as demonstrated by the graph. however, the graph also show that at the beginning of the 4th year and until the end of the study’s period, the correlation becomes equal to zero, which means that our two assets are no longer correlated, otherwise there is no measurable co-movement among the two investments. 5. conclusion it is known that market participants take into consideration the expected returns as well as expected risk. hence, high volatility points out high uncertainty and this is why market’s volatility is considered as the cornerstone of both long and short-run traders’ strategy. indeed, when the prices fluctuate its provide opportunities for investors to buy stocks, bonds or indexes (conventional or islamic) when prices are low then the investors wait for cumulative growth down the road. the paper concludes that both sukuk and stock market indices are affected by their own news and shows volatility persistence over the study period. the general environment of the dubai financial market suggest that the fluctuation and sensitivity of investigated 102 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 95-105 equities are related to the nature of the market as a fast-growing emerging market on the one hand and to the economic and political event changes likewise the dubai financial debt as the main trigger for the market tremble. moreover, the negative degree of correlation between sukuk and stock market prices plays a meaning role in the performance of the islamic bonds as good portfolio diversifier. references acar, m., köse, n., yıldırım, j., boyacı, a., & sezgin, f.

world of globalization agendas demonstrates and realizes that the interest-free banking (ifb) convention commonly known as islamic banking has the potential to serve as an alternative banking service by filling the gap left unaddressed by the conventional banking. this breakthrough in banking industry is occasioned by the introduction and growth of the interest free banking. however, despite the growth in islamic banking, there are concerns that development of islamic banking remains somewhat limited and that the industry may be suffering from a lack of innovation (khan and bhatti, 2008) and lack of initiatives in convincing customers that they are really offering shariah compliant products and not dressing up conventional banking practices (karbhari, naser and shahin, 2004). banking system is one of the most important economic sectors and strongest financial intermediaries in the economy that plays a key role in economic development in societies through receiving the deposits of depositors and instead pay loans and facilities to applicants and give interest (iravani, ghazali and ghazali, 2012). in accordance with nbebsd no. sbb/51/2011, authorized the business of ifb under the umbrella of the conventional banking with limited scope. “interest-free banking business‟ refers to banking business in which mobilizing or advancing funds is undertaken in a manner consistent with islamic finance principles and mode of operation that avoids receiving or paying interest;” and “interest-free banking window” refers to a unit within a conventional bank exclusively offering interest-free banking services”. the authorization for the licensing of the ifb business under the umbrella of the conventional banking with limited scope is thus aimed at addressing two contesting national objectives of two extremes; optimize economic values of ifb to address the interest of its stakeholder and satisfy the community that have problem with the current banking systemin one hand and constrict its operation under the umbrella of the conventional banking with limited scope for the time being, perhaps for strategic reasons. the interest free banking is let free to operate independently without pressing supervisory restrictions in middle east, asia and some european countries for its most fair economic liaison role (shelton and percival, no date). according to research and surveys conducted by sankaramuthukumar and devamohan, (2008), it was then recommended that the government of ethiopia has to consider introducing interest-free (islamic) banking by making use of smooth relationship between the christians and muslims as an opportunity and underscoring its immense and untapped contribution in filling the gap left by the conventional banking in general and various microeconomic benefits in particular. in general, despite the fact that the interest free banking is newly embarking in ethiopia with peculiar features that have repercussions unless otherwise, the overall awareness level of the stakeholders (commercial banks and customers) as to compliance with the governing principles, operating philosophy and practice in one hand and the supervisory platform on the other are believed among the key limiting factors and it is at an infant stage with potential gap (debebe a., 2015). the perceived trust of banking in ethiopia are the one factors that affecting the customer’s intention to use interest free banking financial products and services in ethiopia (debebe a., 2015). its prospect towards successful ultimate contribution to the economic development of the country meanwhile depends on filling these gaps. in the ethiopian context, the ifb convention is introduced in the form of ifbw short of full-fledge level, which has its own retarding impact on standard of the convention and its 50 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 48 58 contribution in driving the economic development and complementing the banking industry in the process. moreover, as an emerging phenomena, it seems as it may face misconception challenges as a value-adding convention to the banking industry and the economy as well, which emanates from its peculiar features and operating principles. the ifb convention is newly embarking in ethiopia with peculiar operating philosophy, principles and practices that require debate on the customers awareness, satisfaction and its role to economic development working towards the convention’s growth in the ethiopian present context. hence, this study tried to evaluating the customer’s awareness and satisfaction toward interest-free banking and its role on ethiopia economic development with some selected commercial bank in ethiopia in jimma town. 2. method the study was a descriptive study which was conducted using survey approach in which a cross sectional and panel design was applied to achieve the objective of the study. customers and managers of some selected commercial banks providing interest free banking in jimma town was considered as the target population of the study. to conduct this study the primary data of both quantitative and qualitative nature that was obtained from interest free banking customers and managers. un-structured interview and questionnaires was used to collect information from managers of the selected banks. however the prevailing estimated total number of interest free banking customers irrespective of the scope of service and the intensity of relationship, the number of interest free banking customers that have established comprehensive (deposit, financing and trade service) ifb services relationship. hence, this relevant group of interest free banking customers was considered as target population of the customer sub-population. based on carvalhio (1984) sample size determination method the researcher was select a small sample size which is 200 customers of the selected commercial banks in ethiopia by using systematic sampling technique such that a questionnaire was given to every second customer come into branch separate window premises. moreover, secondary data was also collected and used to augment the study. the secondary data was collected from clients’ files, bank reports, supervisory directives and other working documents. the data generated was analyzed and presented by using descriptive and inferential statistical analysis techniques. 3. result and discussion this section presents the analysis, discussion and inferences made on the basis of the responses obtained. all the data were coded and entered in to stata 14 and inferences were made based on the statistical results. the research instrument used in the study was survey questionnaire. the study population comprised the commercial banks’ managers and customers. data was collected from all selected commercial bank’s managers of 51 and customers of 178 which comprises 89% of target population. descriptive analysis the current status of interest free banking services, customers awareness and satisfaction the conventional banking service restricts or discourages individuals‟ needs to some extent due to various socio-cultural, religious and economic reasons. accordingly, a question is forwarded to investigate individual reason of choice and preference between the two banking services and customers satisfaction. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 48 58 51 table 1: current status and customer satisfaction of interest free banking items alternatives

178 100 source: survey, 2018 regarding interest free banking substitutes conventional banking in mobilizing idle fund the respondents responded 35%, 42%, and 22% of the sample respondents agreed “absolutely agree”, “to some extent agree”, and “not agree at all”, respectively, that interest free banking can substitute the conventional banking in mobilizing the idle fund in the economy. from the turnout, we can conclude that almost one-third of respondents believed that the interest free banking can at least contribute little to mobilize the idle fund in the economy as substitute for the conventional banking. this doesn’t mean that it displaces the conventional banking, but fills the gap left by it. the respondents asked whether interest free banking enhances doing fair business in economy as compared to the conventional banking and they responded 29%, 64%, and 7% of the sample respondents agreed “definitely agree”, “to some extent agree”, and “not agree at all”, respectively. from this sample turnout one can conclude that interest free banking better enhances doing fair business as compared to the conventional banking, as it is full of transparency and informed decision making in all aspects of business dealings. this also shows as the existence of alternative services satisfied the customers. also the respondents asked interest free banking’s fairness in cost of service and indicated,53%, 40%, and 7% of the sample respondents indicated “agree”, “to some extent agree”, and “do not agree”, respectively, that interest free banking’s is cost effective than conventional banking. from this it is possible to conclude that almost the two services are comparable in cost even though there is slight difference in which again interest free banking is better in spending and receiving good value for money. regarding whether interest free banking’s properly addressing corporate social responsibility respondents asked and their response indicated in the above table 1 above, 63%, 31%, and 6% of the sample respondents replied “agree”, “to some extent 52 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 48 58 agree”, and “did not agree” about the betterment of interest free banking’s in addressing corporate social responsibility as compared to the conventional banks service. from this fact it can be generalized that interest free banking’s is highly regarded in addressing corporate social responsibility as compared to the conventional banks. from the above table 1 on the question whether the prevailing national banks of ethiopia interest free banking provision is appropriate or not, of the total respondents, 57% of them were agreed that the prevailing provision is not appropriate while the remaining 43% agreed as to some extent there exists a good provisions that can assist the operation of interest free banking. from this one can conclude that the existing national banks of ethiopia supervisory provisions are not appropriate enough for the effective implementation and operation of interest free banking in the country. referring to the above table 1 whether or not interest free banking service have unprecedented bearing on financial stability from risk management point of view or not, 11%, 29%, and 60% of the respondents agreed “definitely”, “to some existent”, and “not at all”, to the question. from this result, though the majority of the respondents believe that there is no as such risk but about 40% of the respondents think that the existing interest free banking has unprecedented bearings on financial stability from risk management point of view, in one way or another. in addition, the open-ended questions response indicated as the more than 52% of the respondents suggested creating awareness through campaign, workshop, market development is what expected from commercial banks and national banks of ethiopia. also, more than 40% of the respondents suggested as capacity building must be takes place. some of the respondents suggested as the undergoing best practice experience sharing of practitioners with islamic banking pioneers is expected by national banks of ethiopia and banks with interest free banking services. furthermore, 30% of the respondents suggests as national banks of ethiopia should revising the prevailing nbe ifb provision restricted under cbb to fulfill along with lifting or relaxing the ceiling levied on investment portfolio. from the suggestion provided by the customers it can be concluded as there is awareness creation activities problem in ethiopian banking industry. further, capacity building, experience sharing and enabling supervisory provisions problems are issues incurred by banks. the role of interest free banking on attributes of economic development here, respondents were asked to separately evaluate each attribute of economic development, according to the level of perception that they have, using a five-point likert scale: “strongly disagree”, “disagree”, “neutral, “agree”, and “strongly agree”, assigned with five different scores of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, respectively. the statistical test of one-sample t-test for the analysis of those economic development attribute variables were used. it is to be noted that the one-sample t-test procedure tests whether the mean of a single variable differs from a specified constant population mean. table 2 one sample t-test one-sample test a tt ri b u te o f e co n o m ic d e v e lo p m e n t effect of ifb on attributes of economic

from the above table 2, the figures on the opinion of respondents about the effect of interest free banking on the attributes that have direct constructive effect towards economic development of a country were better expected to have tpositive values and service scores while for those attributes which have retarding effect towards the economic development the interest free banking has negative effect while the result have negative t-values and service scores. the factors which had t-values greater than 1.96 were significant in positive direction and the factors with t-values less than -1.96 were significant in negative direction which implies that, in both cases, their p-values approach to zero and their respective mean difference values also largely deviate from the test value (3) as their t-values are far from the critical value in both direction. on the contrary, those attributes whose calculated t-value lies between 1.96 and 1.96, were statistically insignificant in both directions. that means their mean value do not differ from the test value and thus we cannot reject the null hypothesis for these attributes. accordingly, when we have look at the above table 2, we can safely generalize that in all attributes the respondents agrees that interest free banking can play a significant role in contributing to economic development through enhancing mobilization and allocation of monetary resources, and encouraging people to use the banking system since all the attributes have a positive t-value greater than 1.96 and highly significant by rejecting the null hypothesis. 54 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 48 58 table 3: one sample t-test one-sample test a tt ri b u te o f e co n o m ic d e v e lo p m e n t

economic crisis and inflation, for both attributes we rejected the null hypothesis as their calculated t-values were greater than the critical value in absolute terms implying that the mean differences had negative sign and the means of each were less than (different from) the test value and they were highly significant since their p-value is less than 0.05 which is 0.00 highly significant. therefore, we can plausibly conclude that interest free bankinghas greater role in stabilizing economic crisis and plays great role in arresting inflation. table 4: one sample t-test a tt

result of the attributes of economic development that vindicate we rejected the null hypothesis for all the attributes since the t-values were greater than 1.96 in positive direction and the mean differences were large enough and they were highly significant with p-value 0.000. from this we can safely generalize that in all attributes, the respondents agreed that interest free banking has constructive effect on creating employment opportunities, enhancing business compatibility with socio-cultural factors, filling the banking gap left by conventional banks, complementing the banking industry at large and in contributing to the national gross domestic product. additionally, the open-ended question response of the respondents indicated as majority of respondents are suggested as the role of interest free banking are fostering financial inclusion, which in turn promotes sense of social justice that brings about political stability which is a foundation for national peace and growth, has constructive role in attracting foreign direct investment, creates fair and competitive working environment, contributes in balancing wealth gap, promotes poverty reduction and contributes towards improving standard of living. finally, the annual report of the selected commercial banks in ethiopia commensurate 56 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(1) june 2021, 48 58 with some of the above analyzed attributes of economic development that are reasonably supposed to be affected by interest free banking, from the interim reports of the these target banks up to november 31, 2018. the attributes that analyzed by using secondary data sources are, mobilization of monetary resources, allocation of monetary resources as financial development factors and, encouraging people to use banking system and employment opportunity on the other hand. hence, the document indicated as interest free banking has constructive effect on some attributes of economic development at national level in general and mobilization of monetary resources that were kept away from the banking system (about ethiopia birr 1,652,203,000), allocation of monetary resources (about ethiopia birr 597,567,510), encouraging people to use banking system (about 113,058 depositors and about 80 financing customers) and created employment opportunity for about 150 citizens in particular. the secondary data obtained after almost five year operation from the three interest free banking-pioneering commercial banks of oromia international bank(oib) and commercial banks of ethiopia (cbe) and united banks (ub) supports the interest free banking constructive effect on attributes of economic development and this is consistent with the study generalization above primary data t-test result under table 6 above in which respondents agreed that interest free banking can play integral role in contributing to economic development through enhancing mobilization and allocation of monetary resources, and encouraging people to use the banking system since all the attributes have a positive t-value greater than 1.96 and highly significant by rejecting the null hypothesis. 4. conclusion based on the study result it concluded as interest free banking have its own role on the country economic development through mobilizing the idle monitory resource, allocating the monitory resource, creating employment opportunity, and inviting to the banking system. therefore, it recommended as the banks should make aggressive promotion on interest free banking services for customers awareness specially those of out of muslim customers, the government has to support and should give more emphasis to enable interest free banking service, promote interest free banking which can help assist the economy in stabilizing economic crisis and arresting inflation. the current study examines the role of interest free banking on ethiopian economic development. thus, it gives hindsight for commercial banks, ifb customers, the nbe and policy makers are at the forefront of the key stakeholder. when new product is introduced, it is common to come across fear of new things which is always exists in mankind. accordingly, as long as the interest free banking is concerned in the ethiopian context, both customers and bank employees themselves have low level of overall awareness about interest free banking. in a bid to lay a foundation for interest free banking in response to the observed overall stakeholder awareness inadequacy result of the analysis, commercial banks in collaboration with the nbe/government shall work on creating awareness through conducting stakeholder campaign, workshop and market development, to induce the very purpose of introducing interest free banking, its comparative advantages, its governing principles, its operating philosophy (to some extent), and its contribution to economic development among customers,

(world bank global findex, 2018). but the numbers gap between rich and poor is quite high at 20 percent. this illustrates that the economic growth in indonesia is uneven. financial inclusion index in indonesia reached 19.6 percent in the years 2011, lower than countries in asia. low financial literacy society, contributes to the unequal distribution of financial inclusion in indonesia. research related to the role of islamic banks in the strengthening of smes also have a lot to do, citing the results of the analysis of the ministry of commerce that smes have a very important role in the economic growth of a country. saleh & hadiyat (2016), it is in line with the results of the study (rini, 2017), (prayogi & siregar, 2017), (kara, 2014), (cheng & degryse, 2010) in his research revealed that poor communities in border areas are able to improve their standard of living by empowering msmes, but are still constrained by the level of education in managing msmes. (trimulato, 2017), (aurora lubis, 2016), (darwanto, 2013) in his research identified that the most suitable islamic banking financing for msme financing is the musyarakah contract. islamic finance contracts and products are the focus of the research conducted (nofinawati, 2014), (lestari & hisamuddin, 2015) mentioned that, intermediation and types of islamic bank financing products have a positive relationship with bank risk and performance. their gab between financial literacy among consumers and financial services providers, gender roles, internet access, and high levels of poverty, less inequality triggers financial inclusion in indonesia. financial inclusion are believed to be able to build the economy and to reduce poverty in a country, as it creates an efficient payment mechanism, improve access to credit for entrepreneurs and sme business with the right financing mechanisms. micro, small and medium enterprises often considered unable to meet the banking requirements (bankable). precisely loan obtained from a loan shark's burdening businesses with great interest, so it is often smes that has long operated will be difficult to develop because of their turnover should be reduced by a large interest expense. financial inclusion aims to encourage unbankable people to access financial services for every level of society, so as to reduce social inequalities, improve welfare, help small communities to be more empowered to manage their finances independently and able to get out of debt trap from loan sharks. financial inclusion is a financial system that is built to improve access to financial services to small and medium sized enterprise (smes) in gaining access to finance, consumer protection and to strengthen financial regulation evenly, (nengsih, 2015). the government is aware of the importance of implementing financial inclusion and issuing policies through bi 42 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 40-50 regulation no.17 / 12 / pbi / 2015 which requires commercial banks to reach msme credit ratios from total loans disbursed at least 20 percent to assist msmes businesses access capital, and law no. 21 of 2008, concerning srb, explains that sbr is a sharia bank whose activities do not provide services in payment traffic, but in their business conducting business based on sharia principles, economic democracy and the principle of prudence. (cheng & degryse, 2010). in his research also explained that the services provided in the banking sector as a credit service is very important to encourage the economic growth of a country, and encourage the creation of a better financial inclusion. based on this litrature, we propose hypothesis that msmes financing by the srb have significant effect to increasing financial inclusion with net credit expansion. the development of islamic financial institutions (lks) in indonesia is experiencing significant growth in assets, and the majority of its assets used for the financing of smes. this shows that islamic banks have participated in the growth of smes. with the administrative system easily understood smes, srb can reach financial transactions and closer to small and medium communities sharia banking rule number 21 of 2008 srb explains that islamic banks in their activities do not provide services in payment traffic, therefore the srb still has the same function as an islamic bank. it is as a financial intermediary institution, so that the srb as a financial intermediary institution can improve the welfare of the community, especially for msmes and can contribute significantly in increasing the national financial inclusion index. research related to the financing of smes in boosting the national economy and the financial inclusion has done much earlier researchers, included in, (nengsih, 2015) in his research on the role of islamic banks in implementing financial inclusion, explaining that islamic banking has great potential in implementing financial inclusion as seen from an increase and an increase in microfinance, certainly requires the synergy for all. nengsih's research was also supported by research (mohieldin m, iqbal z, rostom a, 2012), which states that economic instruments in islamic economics will accelerate the process of financial inclusion, this is in line with research by (kamath, 2007), (shahulhameedu, 2014) and (chakrabarty, 2012), emphasizes how the conceptual framework measuring and analyzing the financial inclusion globally, it is in line with the thinking (mohiuddin, begum, & rizvi, 2018), (rifa’i .a, 2017) financing bank examined the role of sharia in implementing financial inclusion through smes financing, rifa'i concluded that the srb has managed to maintain and improve its capacity to channel financing. mohiuddin et al., (2018) examines the reasons large companies in pakistan are reluctant to go into business in islamic banking, and are more inclined to choose banks conventional. allen, demirguc-kunt, klapper, & martinez peria (2016), in the foundations of financial inclusion: understanding ownership and use of formal accounts explore the factors that drive a country's financial inclusion to be stronger. the realisation that financial inclusion is a key enabling element, both in the fight against poverty and in reaching the goal of inclusive economic development, is leading to an increasing focus on financial inclusion policies and initiatives, so that we propose second hypothesis that msmes financing by the srb have significant effect to increasing financial inclusion with gros domestic produk. many studies acknowledge that msmes are able to contribute in improving the national economy, so the government strongly encourages banking financial institutions to provide msme capital funds, however, economic growth is not enough to improve national welfare, economic system more equitable and easier capital in small and medium public access is the most appropriate to be applied nationally is through an increase in financial inclusion. shinkafi, yahaya, & sani, (2019) found that financial inclusion and ripe the benefit of tackling international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 40-50 43 poverty, needed promoting sustainable, equitable growth and development. based on the purpose of this study is to examine the effect of sharia rural banks financing through micro small medium entreprise (msmes) financing on financial inclusion to be achieved, the author only limit the problems on financing of smes in the srb and its influence on financial inclusion in indonesia. the findings of previous researchers have certainly contributed to the scientific treasures in indonesia. some of the problems underlying this research are: 1. the phenomenon that indonesia is a country where the majority of the population is muslim, but people prefer to open accounts and make financing loans at conventional banks despite knowing the usury law.the results of initial observations on the financial statements of srbs loans or financing are mostly realized are murabahah loans, which tend to be used for consumptive use, while financing for mudharabah and musyarakah are less, whereas in reality these types of financing more reflect islamic values. 2. the results of initial observations on financing quality srb srb showed an increase in the npf, the question that arises then is whether the growing nilia npf occur due to lack of customer assessment standards for not fully implementing 5 c as in conventional banks. 3. financing of smes have been realized if it really can improve economic growth and financial inclusion. 4. the government has issued bi regulation no.17 / 12 / pbi / 2015 which requires commercial banks to reach msme credit ratios from total loans disbursed at least 20 percent, so that financial inclusion can increase, but indonesia's financial inclusion index is still low. this research is different from other studies, because in general research with similar themes is carried out with a qualitative approach, namely by observing the increase or decrease in financing and comparing with economic growth and financial inclusion, while this research will focus more on analyzing the role of the islamic people's financing bank in providing msmes financing products, and its impact on the national financial inclusion proposed by the net msmes credit expansion and gross domestic product (gdp) as an indicator of the growth of national financial inclusion. 2. research method this research was conducted to assess the effect of the financing of smes sharia rural bank on financial inclusion in indonesia. the study will be determine with a quantitative approach by used regression linier to secondary data msmes financing on the srb as a variable (x), business expansion credit of msmes and gross domestic product (gdp) as indicators of financial inclusion as variables (y1) and (y2). the data processed are quarterly data in the period 2011-2018. the object of this study discusses the msme financing products in the srb for the rural bank were quite successful in financing micro and more in line with islamic law in terms of transactions and the akad. the financial inclusion variable in this study is proxied by the msmes net credit expansion which indicates growth and development of micro and gdp businesses (gross domestic product) as indicators of economic growth. this study are expected to be able to add to the scientific discourse of various studies that have been conducted which generally provide the view that financing in islamic banking, more suitable for application in encouraging the development of smes through the capital more easily in reach, especially srb believed closer to the community. 44 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 40-50 3. results and discussions banking has a very large contribution for economic in indonesia. the role of banks as intermediaries for people who have more funds and people who need funds reflected by the number of dpk, loans and credit financing distributed by these financial institutions to the public. according to mohieldin m, et al. (2011) islam has instruments and supports that are unconventional, which if implemented fully can facilitate poverty and inequality in muslim countries that increase poverty, by making policies that are in line with infrastructure needs and financial regulations. the role of islamic banking in encouraging small and medium microeconomic actors can be seen from the amount of islamic bank financing for the msmes group that continues to increase, this is supported by research (prayogi & siregar, 2017). trimulato, (2017) in his research revealed that the number of msmes entrepreneurs increased significantly but was not supported by musyarakah financing which was believed to be fit for msmes financing. this is supported by data in the present by the ministry (trade 2013) that the amount of financing for smes is still low, so the bank indonesia helped in assisting the development of small businesses and cooperatives, to provide financial assistance to smes, known as bank indonesia liquidity credit (klbi). to illustrate these conditions can be seen in the following table 1. table 1. descriptive statistics n minimu m maximu m mean std. deviation pumkm 32 1246116 4185589 2910292.00 892500.058 nek 32 -28405 957047 445760.47 284167.124 pdb 32 47 67 54.78 6.588 valid n (listwise) 32 source: secondary data processed, 2019 table 1 shows the descriptive statistics of the study, in which the number of sharia bpr samples in indonesia conducting msme financing was 32. the average value of msme financing by sharia bprs was still low at 2,910,292. this condition shows that investment financing and / or working capital based on sharia principles with a sale and purchase agreement (murabahah) to help micro, small and medium-sized businesses in business development is still low. likewise, net expansion of credit is also still low at 445,760.47, this shows that financial inclusion in indonesia is still low. this result is based on the financial services authority (ojk) survey data from 2011 to 2018, that the level of financial understanding (literacy) of the indonesian people has only reached 29.66 percent. meanwhile, the level of use or people who have access to financial services and services (financial inclusion) have not reached 50 percent. for this reason, it is necessary to increase financial inclusion in indonesia by continuously expanding access to financial services in the regions by accelerating the penetration of financial inclusion in indonesia. while indicators of economic growth (gross domestic product) began to experience an increase from 2011 to 2018, amounting to 54.78. this condition shows that the total value of the production of goods and services produced by all companies whether owned by local or foreign in a country begins to increase. furthermore, the program credit management task has been transferred to three soes international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 40-50 45 appointed by the government, namely pt bank rakyat indonesia (bri), pt bank tabungan negara (btn), and pt permodalan nasional madani (pnm). in this case, pt bri functions as the coordinator of kut, kkop and kkpa-tr schemes, pt btn as the coordinator of kprs and kprss skim distribution, while pt pnm is the coordinator of other credit scheme. this effort is carried out in order to spur the growth of msmes in the riil sector so that they can contribute to economic growth and financial inclusion, this is supported by research (nengsih, 2015), (rifa’i .a, 2017), (mohieldin m, iqbal z, rostom a, 2012), in his research the role of islamic finance in enhancing financial inclusion in organization of islamic cooperation (oic) countries, states that muslims are more likely to have an official account in banking than non-muslims. with redistributive instruments in islamic economics, such as zakat, infaq, sadaqah, muslims have great potential in conducting financial inclusion. beside that (makina & walle, 2019) who focused their research in africa, with the lowest level of financial inclusion in the world, found that financial inclusion as measured by the access dimension had a significant positive effect on economic growth in africa. this finding reinforces the need for financial inclusion as one of the most effective tools for realizing inclusive growth. although technically already instructed the government to provide funding assistance to the smes, are still many who can not get access to bank (aurora lubis, 2016), so it can be assumed that there has been a gap in financing access to banks (unbankable), (mohiuddin et al., 2018), and (rini, 2017) in this case explaining the difficulty of procedures in accessing financing in islamic banks, in addition, laweyan batik sme entrepreneurs feel unfamiliar with financing products in islamic banking, (mohiuddin et al., 2018). kara, (2014) in his research revealed that the role of islamic banking have not been up to the smes, which is supported by a study (maryati, 2014), which is more focused on the discussion of the characteristics of the srb customers who obtain financing in west sumatra. (aurora lubis, 2016) reveals the limitations of smes in the utilization of information technology, low investment and a lack of support from government institutions. increasing number of bank financing to smes in the trust will be able to encourage businesses to develop their products and boost national economic growth which is reflected in the gdp. this is supported by empirically (darwanto, 2013), which revealed the existence of creativity-based smes business operators in central java who need government support in the protection of copyright and formed clusters in the production process. results of data tests conducted in this study are shown in the following table 2: table 2. test result variable b pearson correlation significants y2 y1 6,050 0,006 0,820 0,018 0,000 0,460 f test y2 0,000 46 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 40-50 f test y1 r square y2 y1 constant y2 y1 0,672 0,000 72.388 4.2875 0,921 x srb sme financing source: secondary data processed, 2019 the results of this study explains that the financing of smes is channeled by the srb has a strong correlation with variable y2 (gdp) amounted to 0.820 percent, with a significant effect. the results of this study support (nengsih, 2015), (mohieldin m, iqbal z, rostom a, 2012) and (kamath, 2007). research (kwadwo boateng, y. nagaraju, 2019) also suggests that msmes serve as a catalysts to distribution of development and wealth in the country, that sector contributes gross domestic product (gdp) india’s about 30%. in line with boateng, (pratiwi, 2016) found that the islamic banking’s musharakah and mudharabah on msmes was showing the positive correlation to financial performance. hence, islamic banking is strongly suggested to be more focused on these two types of partnership financing contract to umkm. while the financing of smes by srb effect only amounted to 0.018 percent on net credit expansion of smes that planned, this means that not all smes financing can improve the net expansion. this happens because of the lack of human resources in managing finances, lack of knowledge of the development of product innovation, lack of financial literacy of small and medium micro economic actors. this result is in accordance with research (trimulato, 2017) and (aurora lubis, 2016). mohiuddin et al., (2018) are suggested that to improve the awareness of islamic banking amongst customers needed (1) knowledgeable employees staffed in islamic banks should have influencing sessions as guest speakers in various educational institutions. (2) effective training sessions should be held for the employees of islamic banks to guide them on how to convince customers and prospective customers for islamic financing. (3) some rewards should be announced for the employees who succeeded to have business from prospective customers. furthermore, its value and volume is needed to be expanded to build indonesia’s sustainable socio economic foundation. then the positive gross domestic product (gdp) growth will be achieved. financing for smes although it has distributed and has increased since 2011-2018 (ojk.go.id, 2018), (nengsih, 2015), but the constraints of smes own internal inhibiting the development of smes, such as low human resources in managing financial and organizational management, in addition to the limitations in information technology, and creativity, as well as the lack of financial literacy, causing difficult to develop smes and require government assistance in providing technical training and understanding of financial literacy in order to avoid economic and social disparities in the community in small and medium enterprises. r square shows that the gross domestic product can only be influenced by 0.672 or 67 percent by financing smes while the remaining 33 per cent of gdp is influenced by other factors outside the model. hypothesis 1 results obtained an f test value of 0.921 so that h1o was rejected and h1a was accepted, meaning that msme financing by the srb had no significant effect on the msmes net expansion. these results are consistent with the results of the study (trimulato, international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 40-50 47 2017) and (aurora lubis, 2016), that the level of business development and sme loans much influenced by the internal smes itself, and in need of assistance from all walks of life (government, smes society, students and financial institutions) to provide training in organizational management and understanding of financial literacy to the community. akenroye, owens, elbaz, & durowoju, (2020) stated that the factor internally related to smes in indonesia in general, as well as resources and capabilities, which can help them in public tenders. need help understanding about the role of resources and the company's internal capabilities in increasing sme participation in the community. this is consistent with the results of the study (rusdarti, 2018) to improve sme’s business need extending marketing network and organizing training, assistance and technology upgrade for smes to improve their product standard, value and quality. according to arun and kamath in kabakova & plaksenkov, (2018), which is proposed to increase financial inclusion can be done through (1) mobilizing social grants to become cashless; (2) supports partnerships between the government and four major banks that support to improve access and use financial services; and (3) introducing special cards for low income, etc. in asia, internationalize smes is largely limited to exports, but political and legal norms of the country, limited access to capital and adding to information that has been obtained as some obstacles to internationalization of smes in developing markets (das & rangarajan, 2020). so that the government policy should can overcome the challenges of internationalization and facilitate smes to better challenges in the future. while the results of the second hypothesis test show that the f test result is 0,000, meaning that h20 is accepted and h2a is rejected, which means that sharia msme financing has a significant effect on gross domestion products which is one indication of the achievement of financial inclusion. this research model explains that each msme financing of 6,050 million will contribute to an increase in gdp of 72.388 percent. these results are consistent with the results of the study (nengsih, 2015), (mohieldin m, iqbal z, rostom a, 2012) and (kamath, 2007). (chakrabarty, 2012) writes that financial inclusion provides savings and enables efficient payment mechanisms, thereby strengthening the financial institution's resource base. thus, financial inclusion becomes a necessity and banking is the main driver for the implementation of financial inclusion. 4. conclusion islamic banks are that use sharia principles in carrying out their business activities with the principles of sharia from the al-quran and al-hadith related to the financing msmes channeled by the srb has an important role and significantly influences economic growth as an indication of growing financial inclusion, the phenomenon that exists in indonesia is that the financial inclusion program in indonesia is increasing rapidly, but index financial inclusion indonesia is still low compared with countries in asia, according to the literature and the results of the study, low index of financial inclusion in indonesia are affected because there is still no gab between financial institutions and public unbankable, uneven economic growth, and low financial literacy in the community, and the lack of use of information and technology. this research certainly has many shortcomings, in the future it is necessary to develop more extensive research on msmes financing not only at the bprs, but also nationally with more financial inclusion indicators. this study are expected to be able to add to the scientific discourse of various studies that have been conducted which generally provide the view that financing in islamic banking, 48 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(1) june 2020, 40-50 more suitable for application in encouraging the development of smes through the capital more easily in reach, especially srb believed closer to the community. so far the institutional role of the srb as a sharia financial institution has been able to get involved in implementing inclusive finance through existing data which is consistently and focused on the msme sector, as evidenced by the financial ratios that exist at the srb. references akenroye, t. o., owens, j. d., elbaz, j., & durowoju, o. a.

value, necessity. jel: b11 b14 abstract this paper aims to compare the two great minds of ibn khaldun and karl marx in terms of their similaritiesand differences. in term of similarities, ibn khaldunsuggests the fall of empire sovereigntywhich is in linewith karl marx’s idea of the destruction of capitalism. according to karl marx, the development of modes of production from time to time is a necessity. whereas, ibn khaldun in his book of al-muqaddimah argues thatthe fall of empire sovereignty is rooted in the nature of its power. marx assumes that the capitalistsystem ‘inevitably’ will continuously foster the surplus value, while ibn khaldun states that the nature of power is about pursuing luxuries.this research applied descriptive comparative and qualitative approach.the study concludes that there are some similarities between ibn khaldun and karl marxalthoughthere are more distinct differences. this is because of the following factors:(1) life background, (2) assumption used by both figures, (3) social state of the society, and (4) influence of the previous scientific thoughts. the difference in the course of economic conception -work, surplus value, and the law of necessity-lies in the paradigm which both concepts use. ibn khaldun applies induction approach bysummarizing the general case of many historical events and disappearance of the former empires. whereas, marx uses class conflict approach as the basis for his theory. as its implication,similarities ofthese concepts do not necessarily require the same paradigm. a review of economic thought of the preceding figures should apply a contextual approach, that is, from the condition of the relevant figure. a comparative study: the economic thoughts of ibn khaldun and karl marx singgih muheramtohadi faculty of islamic economic and business, uin walisongo semarang email: singgih.muheram@gmail.com mailto:singgih.muheram@gmail.com international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 5 1 6 452 1. introduction comparative studies of ibn khaldun are oftenperformed, either in the form of journals or research (bachelor thesis or graduate thesis). however, most of these comparativestudiesuse sociological and political perspectives.this is because the explanations of political sociology are scattered almost in all parts of the book of al-muqaddimah.both of ibn khaldun and marxusean empirical approach to explaining the laws of social development. this empirical approach explains the society through visible or tangible symptoms. prior to the ibn khaldun era,social literature was less viewed from an empirical perspective.they rather viewed it asreligious, philosophical, ethical, and legal perspectives. muhammad abdullah enan in the book of ibn khaldun biography states: although al farabi and ikhwanus shafa discuss it from philosophical and scientific perspectives, ibn khaldun discusses it from a sociologicalperspective and expresses it practically, and his artwork follows his new methods. in this case, he is truly original (enan, 2013: 149). al-muqaddimah actually contains the law of humankind history. it covers various aspects about the formation of societies, the influence of geography and climate to the developing communities, two kinds of communities (nomads and settled communities), the rise and fall of empires, human activities in pursuing life (work), and lastly about the methods of science which are derived from the qur’an and as-sunnah, empirical method, reasoning, and etc. al-muqaddimah is fairly the same as madilog (tan malaka) inwhich it includes the explanation of epistemologythrough logical discussion, empirical method, and then discussion of the dialectical law that occurs in society. the difference lies in the fact that tan malaka wrote books based on the pre-existing theories. therefore, madilog is only considered as a study of logic, dialectic, and materialism theories (yudda, 2008: 165). whereasal-muqaddimahis mostly discussingthe result of inductive reasoning about the past realities, especially during the rise of states and its impact. in explaining the destruction of a state, ibn khaldun is almost identical to marx’s argument about the destruction of a capitalist system. it encompasses the commencestage of destruction, the early stage of the formation of capitalism system, followed by the expansion of ‘surplus value’. when the expansion of surplus value is closer to the climax point, all parties will feel disappointed. after that, the system will be collapsed. the stages of destruction, (both ibn khaldun -with his theory of the destruction of empiresand marx -with his theory of the destruction of capital system-, are almost similaryetnot the same. furthermore, ibn khaldun and marx apply economic approach on how the economy influences social development. here, the author exploresthe similarities, differences, and comparison between the two figures. in their discussion of economics, both explain about work, surplus value, and the law of necessity. they assume the same argument that work is about the labor process when the workers add value to the commodity. this “value” comes from the worker, and it is given to the other parties who pursue the ‘surplus value’ produced by other people. this ultimately leads to their own destruction, that is inevitable. frequently, this narrative is casually equated.however, this paperexplains the difference between the two narratives developed by both figures. one narrative is about the destruction of capitalism entering the revolutionary phase, and another narrative is about the destruction ofempireswhich has been run more than three generations. 2. methodology this research is a comparative study which aims to identify and examine the similarities and differences between two or more groups in a way to compare the two studies or thoughts of each international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 5 1 6 4 53 figure or variable. a comparative research is a descriptive study which searches for cause and effect answers by analyzing the causative factors of the emergence of a particular phenomenon (nazir, 2005: 58). this study applied descriptive and analysis approach. the descriptiveapproach described an object by using words to be clearly understood. whereas, the analysis approach scrutinized an object by using various ways such as reasoning, comparison, and scientific perspective. the author described the thoughts of ibn khaldun and karl marx from the relevant literature. the analysis used several approachessuch as historical approach (background), comparison, and modern socio-economic theories. 3. discussion a. the background of ibn khaldun’s life ibn khaldun alhadramy is one of the founders of social sciences, living between the year of 1332 and 1406, with aphenomenal work of al-muqaddimah. he came from the environment of ulama (muslim scholars and leaders who have expertise in islamic sacred law and theology) and hafiz (muslims who have completely memorized the qur’an).from his early age, he waskeen on writing. he initiated the notion of a “value” of work, long before david richardo. also, hisidea of price equilibrium was advanced long before the birth of adam smith. he was born in tunisia, north africa; the northernborder was the middle sea and across from spain. his family was an immigrant from andalusia. his family previously worked for the muwahidun dynasty, before spain was subdued by the christian rulers (enan, 2013: 19). his family lineage was a royal officer, started from his great-grandfather and his grandfather. whereas his father did not occupy any royal position,instead,he pursuedfiqh, philology, and poetry (enan, 2013: 20) al hadramy, part of his name,indicated that he was a descendant of hadramaut yemen. he was one of the descendants of a prophet’s dearest friend. like the arab family at that time, he was also familiar with the family lineage in a detailed hierarchy (sanad). this considerably influenced his writings in al-muqaddimah. as he stated that genealogies werethe pre-eminence of ashabiyyah (enan, 2013: 134). he explained the civilization in cordova cities which then he compared it to tunisia and egypt (a region in north africa). hislanguage style usedpopular and simple language that was easy to understand. his position as the personal secretary of abu salim, a sultan in morocco, hadtrained his language skills, (enan, 2013: 137). undoubtedly, he understood the details of work division in the royal environment. in the era of ibn khaldun, the territory of tunisia was occupied by the hafsiyyun dynasty. the east region was egypt that previously occupied by the fatimiyyahdynasty, while the northern region was the government center that previously occupied by the umayyah dynasty. his lifetime was after the end of the crusades. at that time, dynasties in the middle east emerged and reached glorious era which then experienced a shrinking power, nomore than 150 years. geographically, the conditionof tunisiawas no different from other north african regions. it was resided by groups of city dwellers, inhabitants in small settlements, northern berber people (turks) who inhabited the grasslands, and nomadic (bedouin). in this period, the bedouin groups were known for their strong tribal solidarity and courage since they lived in the wildlife. ibn khaldun’s time span was after ibn taimiyyah, well-known for majmu ‘fatawa book which contained the concept of price formation in the market. at that time, a currency -dinar and dirhamwas printed with the royal stamp. book keeping and administrative systems were well-conducted, and historical writing was also conducted. al-muqaddimah mentioned that author was considered as any other professions such as poets and singers. international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 5 1 6 454 the thoughts of ibn khaldun could not be separated from the social-political situation at that time. from the thoughts he poured in al-muqaddimah, we can conclude that what he wrote was a social condition in the north african desertduring that period. however, his style of writing was considered as a new style. in this period, ‘knowledge’ (al-’ilm) was identical with the ‘fixed’ knowledge. undoubtedly, knowledge in social dynamics and social development did not receive much attention. for example, a philosophy which investigated the essence of everything in life was considered asa ‘fixed’ knowledge. therefore, many scientists praised the book of al-muqaddimah and its influence on the sociological writing style in europe. arnold j toynbee mentioned almuqaddimah as a historical philosophy in which its undoubted privileges everlasted wherever and whenever. this was related to the philosophy of the history of power cycle, in which every power constantly experiencedrise and fall. b. the background of karl marx’s life marx lived between the year of 1818 and 1883 in prussia, and he passed away in london. at that time, europe experienced industrial revolution where large-scale industries required a lot of man power, and liberalismrose.marx came from a jewish family yet he was skeptical towards religion. the thought of feurbach became the starting point of marx’s criticism of religion(soeseno, 1999: 75). in one of his writings, marx declares that religions do not create the mankind but men create the religions (ibid). he was an activist of the labor movement, a writer,and an academician. his works included the german ideology, the communist manifesto, and das capital. in berlin, he joined the hegelian youth group, a dialectic philosopher. hegelian dialectic explained the constant contradiction between one idea and another so that an improved ideawas created from another idea. marx agreed on some parts ofthe hegelian dialectic; he argued that dialectic did not occur in ideas but it occurred in the real life such as class conflict between the capitalist class and the working class (soeseno, 1999: 65). the contradiction between ideas occurred in the mankind history (hegel), yet marx suggested that the history of societies until the present day was about the history of class conflict. generally speaking, the thought of the young hegelian’s was more materialist (atheistic) rather than idealist as hegel himself believed (farihah, 2015). furthermore, marx learned a great deal about the principle of development through the idea of contradictions and conflicts that he gained from hegel (zeleny, 2004: 76). marx’s life was almost the same as charles darwin, and by then marx had read about darwin’s theory of evolution. marx followed darwin’s theorythatthe origin of man and his history was the highest product of organism (soeseno, 1999: 227). according to darwin, species evolved because of their survival to nature, as well as from other predatory attacks. marx seemedto draw this claim into the law of human history (nitecki 1992: 212). at that time, the movement of socialism had been common in europe. this movement was a protest movement against social inequalitybetween the capitalist class and the working class. this ideology was embraced by a group of socialist who aspired to restore the society regardless ofthe ownership of production factors. marx and fredich engels were involved in revolutionary activitiesin france. many commentators believed that what marx diswas ‘marrying’ the economic thoughts of socialism and hegelian. marx experienced failuresfrom his movement activities hence he turned to a more serious research in 1849 in england (soeseno, 1999: 166). he observed the working conditions in the british industries. the results of this observation were eventually poured into the book of das capital, a book which contained the stages of destruction of capitalism. international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 5 1 6 4 55 c. the principle differences of background and thought ibn khaldun is a muslim scholar, undoubtedly, the recitation of the qur’an and sunnah flourish his writings in the book of al-muqaddimah. in each chapter of the book he writes, he always ends it with a praise statement to god. diametrically, it distinguishes his writing with any other thinkers of the 19th century. in the development of knowledge, this century is known as the atheist age when the existence of god isquestioned. all the previous theories related to religion were changed according to the materialist ideas. biological science was previously known by the islamic world aslife science which was based on the creation of a body, either species or man, created directly by god. however, biological science-although the same object with life science-was then referred to the theory of species development which called the theory of evolution. furthermore, the theory of evolution was later adopted by marx as the basis of his theory.there is a similarity between marx and darwin about the struggle for life and the struggle to survive. the marxian concept is formulated based onthe class struggle. marx states “darwin’s book is very important and serves as a natural scientific basis for the class struggle in history” (harris, 1981: 233). ibn khaldun and marx have many similar views such as using induction methodas well as a historical description and analysis to formulate a social theory based on material sources (hanafi, 2004: 161). ibn khaldun stands on the civilization history which he sees it from the destruction of islamic dynasties. subsequently, he compiled a book about the rise of empires and the fall of empires.whereas, marx roots his writings on the social reality of europe, that is, the labor exploitation by the capitalist groups. he reviews the prerequisites of the destruction of capitalist society in term of socio-economic conditions. having said that, the object of ibn khaldun’s thought is economic civilization built by the empires, while the object of marx’s thought is the industrial societies in western europe in the 19th century. the background of their thoughts is certainly different from the present time. the current conditions are too complex to be viewed by the past observation. in the industrial sector, manufacturing industry is increasingly developed. however, labor welfare varies between the past and present times. yet the most important element of labor revolution lies on the point where unreasonable labor exploitation reaches ‘class consciousness’ phase. today’s situation is also different from the past monarchywhere a country solely depends on the decision of a king. today, there are many powers outside the king such as opposition, parliament, and mass media. this is surely different from the time ibn khaldun wrote the book of al-muqaddimah, although, some of ibn khaldun’s conceptions are still relevant to the present time such as the correlation between civilization development andthe increasing demands of service and expertise jobs (architecture, art, etc.). when a society experiences a chaos state, basic needs are more important compared with another type of needs such as serviceand expertise. d. the theory of working 1) the principle of working according to ibn khaldun the distinctive feature of medieval muslim scholars -in this case is ibn khaldun-and modern european scholars -in this case is marx-is that muslim scholars generally classify science into two things: (1) the naqliyya science, knowledge which cannot be attained by reasoning because it involves the almighty allah and supernatural beings based on the qur’an and as-sunnah; and (2) the aqliyyah science, knowledge which can be obtained through logical reasoning (saiful, 2015: 231) ibn khaldun extensively explains sovereignty and destruction of empires by rooting to ‘human nature’. according to ibn khaldun, human nature needs to ‘eat and drink’ from birth to international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 5 1 6 456 death. ibn khaldun explains that allah provide everyhuman need as stated in qur’an jatisiyah / 45 verse 13 and ibrahim / 14 verse 32 (khaldun, 2000: 447). according to ibn khaldun, ‘the hands of man lie upon the whole universe and everything in it, in which god made man as his vicegerent, a caliph upon the face of the earth’ (khaldun 2000: 448). god gives human life through the rain to grow plants and crops to produce fruits. god also created cattle to produce milk, leather, meat, and so on. everything is provided in nature. the mankind is obliqued to utilize and manage the resources given by god such as producing raw goods into valuable goods, managing farm field, raising livestock for commercial or selfconsumption, carpentry, or other related business activities which require ‘work’. according to ibn khaldun, ‘work’ contains a value. work makes a low-value material or invaluable material into a higher value material. accordingly, work is a process of adding value to a particular material (khaldun, 2000: 450). in arabic, work is called ‘aisy, while the place / type of work is called ma’isyah. aisyh is a musytarak word which meansa word with several meanings. it can be defined as a work or life. this is because ‘aisy makes life (al hayah) possible(khaldun, 2000: 451). mankind possesses such human nature to exploit the natural resources. accordingly, ibn khaldun states that the most ‘primordial’ type of work is agriculture, which then followed by carpentry. agriculture was first introduced by prophet adam whilst the second prophet, prophet idris, introduced carpentry. agricultural technique precedes carpentry technique because agriculture is a very simple process in which it requires a simple knowledge (khaldun, 2000: 452). as we know, farming is generally about cultivating and maintaining. whereas, carpentry includes a lot more complicated knowledge compared with agriculture. the third type of work is trading (tijarah). ibn khaldun tends to view trade as a negative activity because it is identical with persuasion, forgery, dishonesty, and so on. nevertheless, trade is a legitimate activity since islam allows it as long as it does not illegally take other people’s goods. these three types of work are indeed needed by the mankind. whilst other types of work are not necessary because they are not needed in life. for example, servants, treasure seekers, and even governments are not a natural way of making a living (khaldun, 2000: 451). referred to the aforementioned statement, ibn khaldun classifies two major types of work namely the work which directly related to the fulfillment of life and the work which is not directly required for the existence of human life. this reminds us of the two economic sectors namely real sector and nonreal sector. the real sector is an economic activity that is directly related to livelihood and the fulfillment of human needs. in the event of a crisis, the state will be able to survive as long as food supplies, food security, services, and trade sectors are still abundant. 2) the principle of work according to marx marx, like ibn khaldun, hefirst explains the essence of laborbefore further describes the economic concept. this is because work is making a human life. according to marx, man is the following development of ape species. biologically, human is just like any other species who needs to live, needs food and drink. marx’s conception returns humans into their early stage oflife, that is, hunting and gathering before the establishment of land ownership system. man exists because of working hence work is the real essence of a humankind. in the relation to nature, man is seen as a working being. for that reason, marxian views the essence of a man as a homo laboran (hadiwijono, 1980: 120). the influence of darwinian thought on the life ofspecies has considerably influenced marx, because just like darwin, marx views a man in the relation to ‘stomach’ affairs. a mancannot fulfill his own needs alone unless he lives in a group. living in a international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 5 1 6 4 57 group also occurs in most species in which they are familiar with the division of labor. in contrast to the species which only requires a simple work division, humans need a more complex work division in their life. for example, fishing requires different groups of people to create nets, create boats, catch the fish, sell and distribute the captured fish to the broad communities. accordingly, work division and the use of production modes are naturally existed in the everyday life (marx, 2009: 117) there is a historical aspect within the scope of work since work is passed down from one generation to the next. following this, technology is developed to facilitate work process. the next generation continuously improves the existing technology. furthermore, people need ethics to regulate their social gathering. the establishment of ethics is not about the search for ideas of ‘good and bad’;marx argues that it cannot be separated from economic infrastructure. according to marx, ideas are abstract which cannot change society; materials do change the society (martono, 2014: 45). human adaptation to their material environment, through labor, is a part of working / economic relationship (johnson, 1994: 135) in the beginning, there was no such private ownership of the land. people directly workedin the communal land; this was the initial phase of socialism. subsequently, private ownership was introduced as the antithesis of communal ownership; this was the time when social life was divided into two contrasting categories namely the landowners and labors (marx 2009: 293).the polarization between the landowner and the landless is caused by the inability to protecttheir property from the enemy threat. in this pattern, farmershave no longer a rice field,however,they still can work for the landowners or feudal groups in which some of the yields belong to the landowners (two, 2008: 94).the ownership system over factors of production is the beginning of human alienation towards work. in the previous phase,people manage, plan and enjoy the natural resources (smith and raeper 2000: 118). however, the phase of land ownership leads to the isolation of people from their human nature, because they can no longer plan or enjoy the results of their own work (smith and raeper 2000: 118). in the feudal system, there is a legal ownership over a vast land by one family, and many slaves cultivate the land for the landlord. in this point, the production relation takes place between the landlords and their slaves. the landlords occupy the upper structure in the social stratification, while the slaves occupy the lower one. the landlords have a certain relationship with the governments; the slaves cannot directly receive the results of their work because all their ‘value’ of work are devoted for their landlords (soeseno 1999: 17). the feudal phase has gradually transformed into a capitalist system as it has occurred in europe (especially england) with the invention of the spinning machine which enables people to quickly produce commodities. the need for the increasing production requires more labors in the industrial sectors. as a result, labor groups emerges. marx emphasizes the history of modes of production, the means of production, and the relation of production that has shifted from one stage to another. the development of modes of production influences the society during the initial phase of modes of production (hunting and gathering phase) and the phase of communal land and forests. there is no such social stratification at this phase. following this, modes of production have changed into a settled agricultural system which creates land ownership and enables social stratification. the phase of private ownership creates a relationship between masters and slaves which is known as the feudal phase. at this stage, people are completely alienated from their own work. they do not receive anything from their work. religion still receives an attention before the advent of the industrialization phase. modes of production are about creating commodities on a massive international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 5 1 6 458 scale, organizing labors, and production relations between capitalists and labors. this phase forms urban communities, mostly are groups of workers, who work for hours to earn much lower wages than their actual ‘value’ of work. (maksum, 2015: 155) 3) the comparison between ibn khaldun and marx in viewing the principle of work the main difference between marx and ibn khaldun is the basis they use to observe society. when ibn khaldun views the emergence of empires, he observes how a group of people controls such sovereignty over a territory. he learns that sovereignty is based on ashabiyah (tribal solidarity). the high “value” produced by the worker has no effect onthe establishment of a sovereignty. nevertheless, the inequality of economic distribution and the wealth accumulation which are done by a few people may lead to power bankruptcy. marx does not observe ashabiyyah or social bonding/coherence factor (borrowing durkheim’s term) which leads to the state establishment. instead, he uses conflict approach (not coherence approach) in which conflict (dialectical relationship) between the landlord and worker (slave, labor) is the root of the law and norms formation, facilitating the relationship between landlord and slave. in some of his statements, he states that darwin is his inspiration. this means that conflict over economic resources is innate of species. it is also understood by tan malaka in the madilog book. the concept of struggle for lifeis a concept that inspires many theories, even spencer from the liberalist economic groupuses this conceptto justify that poverty in africa is the impact of a defeat of competitions. the use of “the struggle for life” concept is highly controversial to discuss society. the conception of work by marx and ibn khaldun still survives the present day, and it relatively can be used as a philosophical basis. this is because the concept of work by these figures is based on metaphysical assumptions (beliefs). for example, work in marxian conception assumes the development of the human species. one seeks work by farming, trading, or being an employee, essentially to fulfill life just like a species forage for food. whereas, ibn khaldun views work as optimizing potentials in managing natural resources by processing raw material into a useful thing. it is based on the common sense and logic given by god, and also nature provided by god. this can be found in various forms in the modern life such as in the field of mining, carpentry, agriculture, and etc. 4) the theory of surplus value by ibn khaldun a) accumulation of surplus value by ibn khaldun according to ibn khaldun,benefit is the “value” of their work. if one does not work, then the value = 0. each benefit contains a value that can be exchanged with other objects, equivalent to the ‘work’ value. the ‘work’ value is equivalent to the demand level for the product. the more demands of a product, the higher valuethe product generates. a trader earns the value from the difference of purchasing and sales. therefore, the value depends on one’s work; the more efforts and worksone performs, the more “value” he/she generates. ‘value’ is always generated from work while bureaucratic positiondoes not generatesuch value. by using the power of position, one can obtain “value” which is generated by others especially trade-related activities that have plenty of farmland and sales. the big traders need to approach the authorities in a way to secure their trade activities. therefore, having such position may gain wealth in a short time (khaldun, 2000: 460-461) this is still relevant to the current situation where capitalist requires the investment international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 5 1 6 4 59 security from the government. some of them perform lobbying in an effort to get a license for land clearing, mining, and etc. access to the relevant officials helps to facilitate business developmentas well as to get government’s protection. nevertheless, the context is different between the past and present times when the distribution of power in tunisia at that period was only centralized in one person. the highest position is occupied by the king, for which no other power cannot regulate him. whereas, the lowest positions are occupied by those with absolutely no influence at all (khaldun, 2000: 461). therefore, “position” constitutes a social stratification within a kingdom. it includes people with hierarchical positions in which each level has a particular influence, depending on the level of positions to the king. such influence can be obtained from having a relation with the ‘clan’ or king’s extended family, or it can be obtained from having certain positions. this influence has the ability to obtain ‘value’ (profit) from other parties. because the wealthowners who are keen on helping the needs of community require suchpower to protect them -besides prestige-that can be obtained from having a close relationto the king, close friends of the king,or social solidarityin which the king honors it. in his shelter, they can calmly and peacefully live, free from enemy attacks;if they do not possess any of it, they will get exposedby all forms of deceit and legal excuse. ibn khaldun interprets the above verse that onewith a higher position can lead men to work more actively, the rulers may protect them from various dangers (from barrack or bedouin attacks), the governance system may provide fruitful benefits, and this governance may enable law and religion enforcement. the characteristic of ibn khaldun’s writings lies on the fact that he sometimes uses full of ‘positive’tone but some other times describes in a ‘negative’ tone. this can be seen when he describes bedouin communities that they are born from nature, brave, strong, and bold in facing any situation. however, elsewhere in the same book he has writen, he describes bedouin communities asuncivilized people. likewise with his writings related to the government. on one hand, he says much about the fruitful benefits from the ‘hierarchical structure of the government. on the other hand, he describes the ‘negative’ side of the government. b) the accumulation of surplus value by karl marx surplus value is one of three central issues in karl marx’s thought, in addition to the theory of class struggle and the theory of dialectical materialism (wiraman, 2014: 9). marx is much inspired by the previous theories. his opinion of materialism is based on the conception of feurbach, his opinion of dialectics based on hegel, and his opinion on value is more from david ricardo. whereas, the idea of socialism in europe has evolved long before das capital. marx has previously read economic thoughts of adam smith, david ricardo, and so on (soeseno, 1999: 90) marx considers hegel’s philosophy in terms of conflict. however, darwin’s influence on the thought of survival of the fittest is more interesting. this is because conflict does not occur in the competing idea, but rather the struggle for economic resources. marx criticizes the absolute idea of hegel that manifestation of the state is the result of partial idea, therefore, the absolute idea overcomes the partial idea (pals, daniel l 1996: 133). this does not pay much attention to the idea of abstraction but it pays attention to the concrete matter instead. one of the main attention is the surplus generated by the workers. the notion of surplus value sees the value of work from the duration of work, type of work, and quality of work. a commodity is not only about the value resulting from its advantage, but also the value resulting from the magnitude of the work done by the workers . the number international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 5 1 6 460 of commodity produced by the workers is greater than the amount of wages paid to them. as a result, there areprice differences between the actual value generated by the workers and the amount of value provided by the investors to them. according to marx, the ideal situation occurs when there is a balanced relationship between workers and employers. on one hand, employers have the capital to mobilize commodities. on the other hand,workers have the rights to decide such cooperation. in fact, the workers are willing to ‘sell’ their children and underage youth to work (marx, 2009: 198). moreover, children work for 24 hours without a break, etc. (soeseno, 1999: 188) in this point, the ‘value’ produced by the worker is being cheated. the greater number of workers used in an industry, the greater the value is being generated. having said that, the capitalist party takes much bigger profit from it. c) the comparison of surplus value accumulation of values in the royal system is about a misuse of tax and gift distribution. this is due to the absence of triaspolitica in which the king plays an absolute rolewithout any institution overseeing him. this accumulation comes from the farmer’s taxes which the government uses to pay the army, police, ministers, and qadhi (courts). whilst the rest of the money goes to the luxuries facilities of the royal family. in addition, such royal positions enable them to receive gifts from the wealthy merchants. at that time, there was no corruption concept to consider this collecting prize activity as an abuse of power. prizes were given to maintain a good relationship with the rulers in a way to secure their business. the accumulation of value in the 19thcentury industries is done by paying wages under the actual ‘value’ of work. workers work for more than half a day but their wages is only enough to meet their basic needs. the capitalist groups gain their wealth from the difference of the value of work done by the workers and value that the capitalists give to the workers. the accumulation of value by the government to increase their luxury is equivalent to the accumulation of value by the capitalist groups to increase their profit. as a result, it creates a gap between the bourgeoisie (capitalists and government) and the proletariat. in the current context, the value of work refers to 8 hours per day and the amount of the regional minimum wage (umr) which is based on central and local government regulations. the measurement is conducted by measuring incomes minus expenditures; the rest is equivalent to surplus value. profit from investors is the interest from the shares they invest in a company, and the obtained interest is generated from the net profit. in the year of ibn khaldun, the king often received various taxes and gifts. today, such rewards are considered as corruption (bribery). it was certainly possible for the king and his officers to receive many gifts in the old days when there was no rule forbidding him. nevertheless, it is no longer possible except by stealth. although regulation has been established, there are many government officers with a fantastic wealth far above their salary and benefits. 5) the law of necessity a) the law of necessity on the destruction of sovereignty: ibn khaldun’s thought the law of necessity is the belief that society will develop from one stage to another, from one condition to another. one stage is naturally followed by the next stage which can be predicted. this is one ofthe similarities between ibn khaldun and marx. despite the importance of a governance, the nature of governance often possesses a negative side. a fair use of power is an ideal form of governance, but in reality, the use of power is often manipulated for their own interests (khaldun, 2000: 462). historically, ibn khaldun international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 5 1 6 4 61 argues that the age of an empire is likely the same as the human age, that is, it never lasts for more than three generations (120 years). the first generations are the founding fathers who have the characteristics of the knights, modestly, and away from extravagance. this is because their life is still filled up with the wildlife spirit (brave, wild, and modest). contrary, the next generations start to pursue a luxurious life and wasting taxes, yet they still have the character of their predecessors. the third generations are the worst of all in which they spend a huge expenditure for paying salary and their own luxury; they neglect the life of the knights (khaldun, 2000: 208-209). according to ibn khaldun, the destruction of a state occurs through several causes (khaldun, 2000, 205-206): 1) the distribution of power is in the hands of one person. when a king concentrates power only in his hands, he sets aside others and ruins solidarity. in fact, solidarity is the beginning of the kingdom establishment. 2) the creation of a state carries out luxuries because everyone is not only satisfied with basic needs. when the basic needs are met,other needs emerge. this includes the need for luxury. as a result of the high demand for these luxuries, expenditures outweigh incomes. for that reason, other budget allocations are cut, for example, the military budget. the consequence of cutting this budget is riskingthe state security and defense. 3) the negative character of a settled culture: a) lazy, lavish, and extravagance b) the loss of ancestor living habits: wandering, robbing, exploring, and searching for self-determination. b) the law of necessity on the destruction of capitalism: karl marx’s thought referring to marx, the law of necessityis rooted in the inevitability of conflict between the bourgeoisandproletarian class.these two classes are constantly in conflict with each other. marx applies social conflict theory which assumes intergroup relationships are not functional (every person plays his/her social functions) nor coherent (every person is attached to his/ her social group) as it is generally understood,but the nature of social relationship is actually a conflict. the proletarian revolution is rooted in the understanding that the relationship between the capitalist bourgeois class and the proletarian working class is not a work division-related relationship;it is a contradictionary relationship instead. this assumes that the contradictions in hegel’s dialectics are not contradictionson a conceptual level, but it is class contradictions. (enan, 2013: 438).revolution occurs when a situation reaches a certain point where the workers are aware of their positions (class consciousness) due to the individual crisis. those points are derived from the ‘mistake’ that the capitalists surely have made, that is, they reduce the price as low as possible for their market expansion in a way to ensure their commodities are accepted and won the market. if the price of commodities falls, the volume of production should be increased in order to maintain profits. market expansion causes the shift from agriculture to industry, or from feudal phase to industrial phase. this gradually leads to a cheaper labor market. when the labor force in the industrial sector increases, whilst the bourgeoisie are unable to prosper their workers, it causes the working class can no longer afford their needs; this is due to the extremely cheap labor system (soeseno 1999: 173) international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 5 1 6 462 the stages of social development, from the pre-communist phaseto feudalism and then to capitalism phase, are inevitable stages. the destruction of private property by the socialist movement is also a necessity in history. marx views that the destruction of capitalism is isolated to ethical judgment, it is a necessity instead (soeseno, 1999: 51). c) the comparison of the law of necessity almost in line with marx’s argument, the accumulation of ‘value’ in the form of taxes and gifts leads to royal’s luxuries which later induce bankruptcy. the luxuries of the high position officers are not about ‘like or dislike’, but it is a matter of dignity. therefore, the creation of a kingdom is due to the strong social attachment of a powerful tribe. they establish a kingdom and entrust one of them as a king. nevertheless, the next offspring is no longer one tribal tie as beforedue to the issue of jealousy and unequal distribution of ration. subsequently, it comes to the phase of defiancewhich weakenings the state. dynasties always rise and fall, causing other to rise yet experiencing the same condition as the previous dynasty. accordingly, the shift from one dynasty into another dynasty is a kind of cycle that keeps circulating. this distinguishes with marx’s argument in which the destruction of capitalism due to the accumulation of surplus value is the end of the story. according to marx, the destruction of capitalism is due to the nature of the capitalist system which always seeks for profits. the profits are derived from surplus value generated from the workers. the more workers, the more value it generates. this is in line with ibn khaldun’s opinion that the destruction of empiresis because of the nature of the rulers who always waste the state money. marx ‘blames’ the production relationship, while ibn khaldun blames one’s psychological nature. both claim that this ‘mistake’ (contradiction) is natural and necessary. the factors of the destruction of a state by ibn khaldun are sociological, economic, and psychological factors. the destruction of a state is not only caused by economic factors, economic factors are only one of the several factors. moreover, ibn khaldun explains the psychological factor of the bedouin group in a much larger portion than the destruction of a state. in chapter ii of al-muqaddimah, ibn khaldun explains the difference between the bedouins and the settled communities. bedouins tend to be brutal, have the potential to conquerand develop a territory (later establishan empire). ibn khaldun does not talk about the destruction of economic sector in destroying the state. contrary, ibn khaldun argues that the destruction of astate will destroy the economy because of the lack of wealth protection. the carpentry industry will also collapse due to the lack of demands. according to ibn khaldun, the population and securityof the state will elevate the economy because of the increasing demand for the product. this is different from marx in which the economic infrastructure builds the superstructures such as law, ethics, social institutions, and etc. the work relation and the modes of production determine the types of community. moral and religion are addictions or media against the alienation between individuals and works. whereas, ibn khaldun assumes that religion and law are alienated from economic activity. it is not the product of human alienation, but it is the magnificent rules directly from god. today, capitalism is not confined to a particular place, a few investors, and worker-related issues; it is much more complex which involves many investors who own shares in a company. in the modern society, the state is also influenced by the concept of trias politica in which the role of state leader (king or president) is overseen by parliament. the economic system is not only determined by real business sector, but also stock market sector. in the situation of a chaotic state, the stock sector is greatly impacted by the fleeing investors abroad. this is almost similar international journal of islamic business and economics, 2(1) june 2018, 5 1 6 4 63 toibn khaldun’s argument that the destruction of a state determines the economy, especially trade sector. whilst, it does not have much influence on the agricultural sector. ibn khaldun argues agriculture is the simplest sector which allows everyone to take part in it. ibn khaldun’s thought on the destruction of a stateis also relevant that the royal family’s extravagance and public distrust leads into bankruptcy. this is relevant to the fact that corruption disables the state to obtain incomes (taxes) and ultimately the state will be collapsed as it can not pay for any development works. 4. conclusion the thoughts of marx and ibn khaldun have some similarities, despite the different paradigms and the use of induction method inconstruing a law. marx uses darwin’s theory as the basic assumption of the nature of work. whilst, ibn khaldun views work as using all potentials given by god to seek his grace. for example, managing nature into useful things. observing marx and ibn khaldun’s thoughts, an academician will not be able to examine one’s thoughts apart from one’s contexts. this is because one’s thoughtsare inseparable from his/her activities, situations, social development, and knowledge. despite both figures have similarities, in terms of the necessity of socio-economic development, their thoughtsare built upon two very different paradigms. one cannot take both ideas of marx and ibn khaldun in one package -to explain the essence of work, the theory of surplus value and the necessity of socio-economic development-without first examining the paradigm used by both thoughts. some parts of marx and ibn khaldun theoriesare still relevant until today, but some other parts are not. the relevant and applicable parts occur in the macroscope, but not in the microscope. for example, theory of the destruction of a state by ibn khaldunis relevant in the macro scope that the destruction of a state starts from financial problems. however, a state with a stable budget condition may be hit by a monetary crisis which later causing the soaring prices in the market and unaffordable price to the public. this condition may subvert a regime such as the may 1998’s revolution. likewise with marx, many things can be applied in the macro scope based on marx’s thoughts, including surplus value. for example, labor demonstration is due to a lack of workers’ salary and welfare. the decreasing labor salary means the increasing surplus value. in this point, the workers will eventually experience class consciousness andlabor movement in the macro scope. however, this condition only occurs locally. it does not change the foundation of the modern capitalist economic systems. in many cases,the disputes between workers and employers can be solved through negotiation or mediation by a third party (for example from the governmental element). references akbar, t. s.

auliani and syaichu (2016), namely bopo, car, inflation, and sbis variables; firdaus (2015) namely car and gdp; akbar (2016) namely gdp, car, and fdr; yusof, et al (2018) variable interest rates affect sharia housing loans; haifa and dedi (2015) namely fdr, profit-loss sharing, inflation, and exchange rates; lidyah (2016), namely car, bi rate, and bopo. of several above research, the variables used in this study are the capital adequacy ratio (car), return on assets (roa) bi 7-day rate or interest rate, inflates. based on a series of problem descriptions above, this study is interested in researching on "analysis of factors affecting non-performing financing of housing loans at islamic commercial banks from 2015 to 2019". according to muhammad (2009: 91), types of financing by islamic banks according to the nature of its use is divided into productive financing and consumer financing. various types of productive and consumptive financing are facilitated by islamic banking, one of which is financing for residential homes on credit or called kpr ib financing. bank indonesia defines a housing loan/mortgages (kpr) as a credit facility provided by banks to individual customers who will buy or repair a house. in providing credit financing, islamic banks are required to conduct a feasibility analysis of the customer. this is intended to find out that the customer is truly trustworthy and can pay his debts. credit financing assessment criteria that must be considered according to kasmir (2009: 115) namely 5 c + 1 s which consists of an assessment of the character of the prospective recipient (character), subjective assessment of the recipient's ability to make payments (capacity), capital capabilities of the recipient (capital), collateral owned by the recipient (recipient), economic conditions of the recipient (condition), and the business or goods provided do not violate sharia following the dsn (sharia) fatwa. dendawijaya (2005) defines npf as the failure of the debtor to fulfill its obligations to pay the installments (principal) of the agreed principal. non-performing financing (npf) is the most crucial thing in the islamic banking system, because of this relating to bank liquidity and profitability. by muhammad's research (2005: 359), namely problem financing increases, the risk of decreasing profitability is greater. if profitability decreases, the bank's ability to expand financing decreases, and the pace of financing decreases. asnaini's research (2017) in mardiani (2013) explains that the increasing car ratio of islamic banks, islamic commercial bank will feel safe to channel financing. the results of previous studies by research akbar (2016); auliani and syaichu (2016); lidyah (2016). asnaini (2017) have significant and negative effects on npf. capital adequacy ratio is often called the capital ratio authorized capital that must be met by the bank. under bank indonesia regulation no 3/21/pbi/2001 that banks are required to provide a minimum capital of 8% of the weighted assets according to the risk stated in the capital adequacy ratio. capital adequacy ratio (car) defined by dendawijaya (2009) is a ratio 130 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 127-137 that shows how far all bank assets that contain risks (loans, investments, securities, bills at other banks) are also funded from the bank's capital funds besides obtaining funds from sources outside the bank, such as public funds, loans (debt) and others the level of profitability of the company can be proxied into the ratio of return on assets (roa). return on assets according to wardoyo and endang (2009) is a ratio to measure a company's ability to make a profit compared to the company's total assets. bank indonesia has set a safe standard of roa ratios ranging from 0.5% to 1.25%according to yuwono (2012), the basis for achieving high profitability is to fulfill obligations to shareholders, to assess the performance leadership, and to increase the attractiveness of investors to invest their capital. rresearch that shows roa has significant and negative influences, namely wardoyo and endang research (2009) on npls in rural credit banks and raysa (2014) on npf in islamic commercial banks. interest rates according to karl and fair (2001: 52) are annual interest payments in the form of a percentage of loans obtained and the amount of interest received each year divided by the number of loans. interest rates in keynesian theory are positively related to the number of credit offers and vice versa is negatively related to the number of loan requests means that the higher the loan interest rate is reflected the more expensive the cost will reduce credit demand, and vice versa. this phenomenon reflects that the high lending rate is currently one of the considerations of the public in making loans to banks. the benchmark interest rate becomes the reference for islamic banks in determining the house price margin, the bi 7-day rate. yusof research results (2018), interest rates have a significant and positive effect on islamic housing loans. lidyah research (2016); hernawati, et al (2018) showed that the bi rate influences npf. inflation is an increase in process general prices of goods continuously (sunariyah, 2004: 17). this does not mean that the prices of various types of goods go up with the same percentage. some theories that discuss why inflation occurs, according to nature (2006), namely: first, the quantity theory expressed by the opinion of classics that the price level is determined by the amount of money in circulation. the price will rise if there is the additional money supply. second, keynes's theory sees inflation as the level of demand for needs increases while supply remains, what will happen is that prices will rise. auliani and syaichu's (2016); rahmadani (2016) shows that inflation has a significant effect on kpr npf on islamic banks. 2. research method this study uses a quantitative approach because this study presents data in the form of numbers. according to kurniawan and zahra (2016: 18), quantitative research is structured research and quantifies data to be generalized. this approach and method began by gathering data, analyze data, and interpret it. secondary data used in this study is timeseries data, in the form of monthly financial statement data from the financial service authority and bi. the population in this study is the entire industry of the indonesian sharia commercial bank in 2015-2019 which distributed mortgages in indonesia. the sample in this study uses saturated samples. according to sugyono (2014: 68), the saturation sampling technique is a sampling technique when all members of the population are used as samples. this was due to limited sources of information from several islamic commercial banks international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 127-137 131 related to car, roa, bi 7-day rate, inflation, non-performing financing mortgages so that the chosen is the entire islamic commercial bank industry. parametric test in this study uses the ordinary least square (ols) regression method or the least-squares method using statistical tools e-views 10 and microsoft excel 2016 the main step in conducting data analysis techniques is to first tabulate the research data needed following the sample research, as well as this regression model must meet several classic assumption test requirements. 3. results and discussion data stationarity test (unit root test) based on the results of the stationarity test using the augmented dickey-fuller (adf) test at the level, the results of the probability of all independent variables are less than α = 5%. it can be concluded that stationary data or data is feasible to be tested using the ordinary least square (ols) method. classical assumption testing following: normality test, based on the results of the panel data multicollinearity test with the help of eviews 10 application, the results of the normality test can be seen in the value of the jarque-fallow test (j-b test) which shows a jarque-fallow value of 0.503738 with a probability value of 0.568500 is greater than α = 5%. it can be concluded if the prob (jarquebera) value is greater α = 5%. that the data is normally distributed so that it meets the requirements in the regression model. multicollinearity test, based on the results of the panel data multicollinearity test with the help of the application e-views 10, the results of testing the vif value shows all independent variables produce a vif value <10. based on these results, all independent variables have been free from the classic problem of multicollinearity so that this regression model is worth testing. heterokedasiticity test, based on the results of the panel data multicollinearity test with e-views 10 application assistance, breusch-foodgodfrey test result shows the chisquare probability of 0.9018, more than α = 5%. it can be concluded that there is no heteroscedasticity problem. autocorrelation test, based on the test results the method used to test the autocorrelation is the breusch-godfrey serial correlation lm test in table 4.6 with lag 5 obtained a dw value of 1,931 which is greater than the du limit (1.7266) and smaller than (2.2734). the du value is obtained from the durbin watson table with a significance value of 5% with the independent variable (k) being 4 and observation (n) being 59. it can be concluded that there are no autocorrelation symptoms. car growth variable has a significant and negative effect on the growth of kpr npf. this research is in line with research by raysa (2014); akbar (2016); diansyah (2016); auliani and syaichu (2016); lidyah (2016) asnaini (2017) which shows the car variable has a negative and significant effect on nonperforming financing in islamic banks. this means that the higher the car, the bank will be more careful to provide financing, which in turn will reduce the npf level of islamic commercial mortgage loans in indonesia. according to auliani and syaichu (2016), the significant result of this roa is because every bank has criteria and different requirements in providing funding. there is a clear initial agreement between the customer and the bank (contract) for good faith that 132 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 127-137 emphasizes the mandate and forms of a business carried out by islamic banks in overcoming the problem of default. one of the actions is to save non-performing loans by banks such as rescheduling, reconditioning, restructuring, and execution (adlan, 2016). the method of execution is the last method such as handing over obligations to the bupn (state receivables agency) and submitting the case to the district court (civil case). one other way banks do to reduce problem loans is by auctioning houses that have failed to pay by a mortgage (kpr) or transferring credit (take-over credit) of the first home buyer to someone else. roa growth variable has a significant and negative effect on the growth of kpr npf. this means that the higher the roa, the level of mortgage financing problems in a bank decreases. this research in line with the study of wardoyo and endang (2009) which shows roa has a significant and negative effect on npl. high profitability obtained from good management, according to berger deyoung's (1997) research in kusuma and a mulyo's (2016) research which states that bad management practices will have an impact on corporate profits. when managers do not have credit scoring skills-assessing building up to the supervision of the debtor, this mismanagement will increase bad credit to banks. the high profitability indicates that the bank has a good performance that attracts the public to place their funds in the bank. for trust it is this community that banks can raise a lot of funds which will then be distributed, then the ratio of bad loans can then be suppressed. conversely, if the profits are bad, the bank may raise the interest rate policy for the sake of achieving profit targets that will only increase the possibility of debtors defaulting. there is a tendency to decrease the npf kpr ratio because this financing is a consumptive activity in the presence of pawning goods or collateral in the form of the house itself, the collateral can be used if the borrower is unable to pay it off. bi 7-day rate growth variable had no significant and negative effect on the growth of kpr npf. this result is in line with the research of astuty and nisa (2018) which shows insignificant results on islamic mortgage financing. these results indicate that the economic turmoil that makes the interest rate fluctuations or bi 7-day rate does not affect the npf kpr. covenants on mortgages such as murabaha, istishna’, imbt, and musyarakah mutanaqisah in their application do not use interest rates in determining the amount of the installment because the beginning of the agreement has been determined the amount of margin and ratio between the bank and the customer. the islamic banking system in indonesia in channeling mortgage financing applying islamic principles that are free of interest and penalties. also, sharia mortgages apply a fixed rate, which means that the mortgage installments will not change from the initial installment to the end of repayment and there is no penalty or administrative fees (provision) if the customer makes early repayments. inflation growth variable did not have a significant and positive effect on the growth of the npf kpr, which meant an increase in the inflation rate, so the level of problematic financing in a bank would remain. this research is in line with asnaini (2017); syahputra and achmad (2019); hernawati, et al (2019). not significant inflation to the npf kpr because inflation conditions in the study period tend to be stable a year) and according to the target determined by bank indonesia (classified as mild inflation is <10%). inflation can occur because of people's desire to consume excessively. the customer's decision to make a kpr transaction indicates that the customer feels that he has a responsibility or commitment to international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 127-137 133 fulfill his obligations in terms of repaying loans to the bank so that even though inflation has increased, problematic financing at islamic banks has not increased as well. asnaini's research (2017) shows no the effect of deep inflation installment payments due to installment payments by customers do not increase if inflation rises but remains as large as the initial contract and also because the initial contract and also changes in the rate of inflation do not dampen the desire of the public to follow the development or reduce consumption, the impact of financing risks can still be controlled. according to fisher in akbar (2016) states that rising inflation in the short term will not dampen people's desire to follow the fulfillment of needs, then the impact of credit risk in the short term can still be controlled. according to bank indonesia (2013), islamic banking more resistant to macroeconomic variable shocks. this is evident at the time of the recession and the crisis of islamic banks are more able to survive than conventional banks. this is evidenced by the high growth of financing in 2008/2009. besides, rising inflation causes the value of the collateral (the house) will also increase. the higher the value of the collateral can cover if the debtor fails to pay. the results of the probability value on the simultaneous test (test f) that have been done that is equal to 0.000054 which is smaller than the value of α (0.05). then it can be concluded that the growth of each variable car, roa, bi 7-day rate, and inflation together influences the growth of non-performing financing mortgages so that h0 is rejected. based on the r-square value shown by the same table, the value is 0.363812 or 36.38%. this shows that the car, roa, bi 7-day rate, and inflation variables in the regression model can explain the npf kpr variable in islamic banks in the 2015-2019 period by 36.38% and the rest is equal to, which means 63.62% is influenced by other variables. which is not used in this study. 4. conclusion capital adequacy ratio or capital adequacy ratio has a significant and negative effect on non-performing financing mortgages. the car variable is the most important factor for banks. the greater the value of car, the more careful the banking sector is in giving the financing will make the opportunity for npf kpr smaller. return on assets has no significant and negative influence on non-performing financing mortgages. roa variable influences increasing or decreasing mortgage npf. the high level of profit is obtained because in this financing there are goods pledged or collateral, thus encouraging customers to pay on time which will indirectly affect the profitability of banks. inflation has a significant effect and positive for non-performing financing kpr. in the short term, if inflation increases will not affect the problematic financing of islamic banks. rising inflation will not discourage people from continuing to carry out their obligations. inflation also makes the value of the guarantee has increased, so it can cover problem financing if the debtor defaults. the suggestions of this study are as follows, banks must implement a prudent system when channelling capital to customers and further develop professional banking performance from the islamic banking system so that it can improve bank profitability to minimize the occurrence of non-performing financing mortgages. for further research, it is expected to be able to take several models and samples of islamic banks both in indonesia and in other countries so that they can be used as a comparison and can be known with certainty the occurrence of problem financing. besides it also 134 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 127-137 adds factors to both internal and external variables accordingly to the conditions and the economic situation of indonesia and the world. it is also necessary to consider and examine the dimensions of time and space research scope. we need to consider and examine the dimensions of time and scope of research. references adlan, m. aqim.

expectation. customer satisfaction is costumer evaluation of a product or service of whether that product or service has met their needs and expectation (bitner, m. j. and zeithaml, v. a., 2003). to determine customer satisfaction, there are five (5) factors that should be noticed by the company, including product quality, in which customer will be satisfied if the results show that the products they use have a certain quality (lupiyoadi, rambat, 2001); the price, in which the products have the same quality but determining the price to be relatively cheap will offer a higher value to the customers. the cost, in which the customers do not have to spend an additional cost or waste the time to get a product or service, they tend to be satisfied with the product or service (lupiyoadi, rambat, 2001). in choosing the market, the industry of batik martha and batik tamina pick those two markets, however now the industry of batik tamina is focusing on direct customer marketing which has more purchasing power, the customer satisfaction provides many benefits to the company, and the higher level of customer satisfaction. in long term, it will be more beneficial to preserve a good customer rather than continuously withdraw and develop new customers in order to replace outgoing customers. satisfied customers will spread a positive story by word of mouth communication and it will be a walking advertisement and for a company, that will decrease the benefit of customer satisfaction (lovelock, christopher h. and wright, lauren k., 2005). hence, to achieve a good customer satisfaction, we need to know what we should offer to the customers so the products are demanded by customers. one of variables that is often found related to product quality, price, and brand is customer satisfaction. therefore, this study uses a satisfaction as dependent variable. in this case, it is explained that customer satisfaction is one of variables that becomes a reason of the existence of other variables (independent variable). those independent variables include price, quality product, and brand. according to the result of the study, the researcher wants to test how far the role of product quality, price, and brand play in affecting the customer satisfaction. research problem according to the background of the study above, we can formulate the problems as follows: (1) does the price have a relation to customer satisfaction? (2) does the product quality of batik have a relation to customer satisfaction? (3) does the brand’s image have a relation to customer satisfaction? (4) do the price, product quality, and brand collectively have a relation to customer satisfaction? in the research activity, it is usually based on the science that already exists. in general, the researcher will start the study by digging up from what the researcher has been studying from the previous researcher. the utilization of what has been revealed and found by the researcher can be done by studying, scrutinizing, exploring, and digging back, also identifying things whether it exists or it does not. to recognize the things exist or not, we can find out from the study reports such as journal or scientific works. in this study, the researcher will observe about the relation of price, product quality, and brand’s image of batik toward customer satisfaction. the study conducted by maddalena sihombing, retno budi lestari, edin s. djatikusuma entitled “analisis pengaruh citra toko terhadap kepuasan konsumen carrefour palembang square mall”. the result of the study showed the variables of the store’s image were product, price, the store layout, and customer service simultaneously had a positive and significant effect toward customersatisfaction of carrefour palembang square mall. i n t e r n a t i o n a l j o u r n a l o f i s l a m i c b u s i n e s s a n d e c o n o m i c s , 1 ( 1 ) j u n e 2 0 1 7 , 4 3 5 2 47 the study conducted by putri setyarini entitled “analisis pengaruh kualitas produk, harga, and merekdeterjen “attack easy” terhadap kepuasan konsumen in andina mart gonilan, kartasura sukoharjo”. the method in collecting data included questionnaire and interview. from the studies above show that three variables include product quality, price, and brand simultaneously have a significant effect toward customersatisfaction. the study conducted by joko putro nugroho entitled “analisis pengaruh kualitas produkand citra merek terhadap kepuasan konsumen dalam meningkatkan word of mouth pada produk autan”. the result of the study shows product quality and brand’s image affect customer satisfaction. variables include product quality, brand’s image, and customer satisfaction have a positive and significant effect toward word of mouth. 2. methods this study uses quantitative research. quantitative research does not focus too much on the depth of the data, but it is important to record data as much as possible from a wide population (kuncoro, 2011). the data obtained from random distribution questionnaires for almost two months, then processed and analyzed using multiple regression analysis technique. this analysis includes: classical assumption test, multiple regression analysis, t-test, f-test. this study demonstrates the relation of price, product quality, and brand’s image toward customer satisfaction. theoretical framework customersatisfaction is feelings of pleasure or disappointment of someone that appear after comparing performance (result) of a product that is considered toward the expected performance (kotler, philipand kevin lane keller, 2007). the customer satisfaction is the perception level of someone after using a product then comparing the product performance that the customer experiences to his/her expectation. satisfaction or dissatisfaction of the customer is a response toward an evaluation of incompatibility or disconfirmation that is perceived between the previous expectation and the actual product performance that is perceived after the usage (tse. o.k and p.e. wilton. 1988). many factors are affecting customer perception and expectation when making a purchase of a good or service, such as the needs and desires felt by the customer when making a purchase of a good or service, the past experience when consuming or using the goods and services and the experience of friends who have consumed the goods or services. gaspers (in nasution, 2005) said that customer satisfaction is really depending on customer perception and expectation. satisfaction is post-consumption evaluation to choose several alternatives in order to meet expectations (engel, james, f, roger d. blackwell, and paul w. miniard, 1994). customer satisfaction can be achieved if the product quality fulfill and exceed the expectations. otherwise, if the quality does not fulfill and exceed customer expectation, desire, and needs, then satisfaction will not be achieved. the customer who are dissatisfied with the goods or services they consumed will look for other company which are able to provide their needs. the relation of price and customer satisfaction price helps the customers decide how to get the highest expected benefits or utilities based on their purchasing power. so, the price can help the customers decide how to allocate their purchasing power to different types of goods and services. the customers compare the prices of the various alternatives available, then decide the desired budget. i n t e r n a t i o n a l j o u r n a l o f i s l a m i c b u s i n e s s a n d e c o n o m i c s , 1 ( 1 ) j u n e 2 0 1 7 , 4 3 5 248 the relation of product quality and customer satisfaction product quality is a factor that influences customer satisfaction (lupiyoadi, r. 2001). the product that is proved qualified will cause customer satisfaction. the product can be said qualified when it has performed its function properly and if the customer expectations of the product have been fulfilled. the existence of these expectations is formed through the image of the product. product image is a set of associations perceived by customers of a product. the relation of brand’s image and customer satisfaction customer satisfaction is a phenomenon after purchasing (giese & cote, 2000). it means that customer satisfaction happens after purchasing, where after doing a purchase, the customer will evaluate the product, whether it is as they expect or not. brand is an identity that is easiest to remember by the customers, the better the product performance is, the better brand image will be. 4. classical assumption test result a. normality test one of the easiest way to see residual normality is by looking at histogram graphic that compares observation data and the distribution that close to normal distribution, as shown in picture 1. picture 1. histogram graphic of questionnaire data by looking at the histogram graphic preview, it can be inferred that histogram graphic gives a distribution pattern that close to normal, not tilted to the left or right. however, just looking at the histogram is considered to give less maximum results so it is necessary to see the normal probability plot, where in the normal graphic the plot looks the spots spread around the diagonal line and its distribution follows the diagonal direction, as shown in the following picture: i n t e r n a t i o n a l j o u r n a l o f i s l a m i c b u s i n e s s a n d e c o n o m i c s , 1 ( 1 ) j u n e 2 0 1 7 , 4 3 5 2 49 picture 2. normal p-plot graphic of questionnaire data based on the normal graphics plot, it shows that the regression model is worthy of use in this study because the data spreads around the diagonal line and follows the diagonal line direction, so the regression model fulfils normality assumption. beside using histogram graphic and normal plot graphic, the statistical test that can be performed in the normality test is kolmogorov-smirnov test. multivariate tests of normality of data performed on residual values. normally distributed data is indicated by a significance value above 0.05. the normality test result on a test of statistical data is shown in the following table 1: table 1. one-sample kolmogorov-smirnov test unstandardized residual n 100 normal parametersa,b mean .0000000 std. deviation 1,40890443

(2-tailed) .919 a. test distribution is normal b. calculated fromdata according to the result in the table 4.4 above, the data is distributed normally. it is indicated by the value of kolmogorov smirnov of 0.554 and significant at 0.919 which is higher than 0.05. it means that the residual data is normally distributed, since the significance value is more than 0.05. i n t e r n a t i o n a l

inflation factor (vif). a regression model is said to be free of multicollinearity if it has a tolerance value higher than 0.1 and a vif value less than 10. full multicollinearity analysis results can be seen in table 2. below: table 2. coefficient (a) model collinearity statistics tolerance viff 1 (constant) harga ,648 1,542 kualitas produk ,588 1,700 citra merek ,746 1,341 a. dependant variable: customer satisfaction based on the result of the study obtained the tolerance value and vif value, for tolerance value, the variable of price equal to 0.648, the product quality equal to 0.588, and brand image 0.746, and for vif value 1.542, the product quality equal to 1.700, and brand image equal to 1.341, tolerance value >0.1 and vif <10 which means that the regression model has no symptoms of multicollinearity. c. heteroscedasticity test the heteroscedasticity test aims to test whether in the regression model there is a variance inequality of one observation to another observation’s residual. if the variance of one observation to another observation’s residual remains, then it is called homoscedasticity and if it is different thenit’s called heteroscedasticity. a good regression model is homoscedasticity or does not occurheteroscedasticity. picture 3. i n t e r n a t i o n a l j o u r n a l o f i s l a m i c b u s i n e s s a n d e c o n o m i c s , 1 ( 1 ) j u n e 2 0 1 7 , 4 3 5 2 51 spss output display results can be seen that the dots do not form a clear pattern, and the dots spread above and below the number 0 on the y axis. so it can be concluded that there is no heteroscedasticity on the regression model. d. autocorrelation test autocorrelation test aims whether the linear regression model has a correlation among disturber error in period t-1 (previously). a good regression model is a regression independent of autocorrelation. table 3. autocorrelation test result – customer satisfaction model summaryb model r r square adjusted r square std. error of the

significance level 5%, the number of samples 100 (n) and the number of independent variables 3 (k = 3), then in durbin-watson table will get the upper limit value (du) 1.736 and lower limit (dl) 1.613. because the dw value of 1.853 is higher than the upper limit (du) 1.736 and less than 4-1.736 = 2.264 (4-du). since the dw value lies between du and 4-du (1.736 <1.853 <2.264), it can be concluded that there is no autocorrelation in this regression model. multiple linear regression analysis the amount of changes in the dependent factor (y) due to changes in the independent factor (x) is partially explained through the regression equation obtained. by using spss program version 21.0 the results obtained as listed in table coefficients (a). table 4. coefficients(a) model

analysis result above we can conclude that: 1. t value – price (x 1 ) of 1.689 with significance level of 0.046 due to significance level is lower than probability value 0.05 (0.046 < 0.05) so it can be concluded that price has a positive influence toward customer satisfaction. 2. t value – product quality (x 2 ) of 1.50 with significance level of 0.0138 due to significance level is higher than probability value 0.05 (0.138 > 0.05) so it can be concluded that product quality has no influence toward customer satisfaction. 3. t value – brand’s image (x 3 ) of 4.218 with significance level of 0.00 due to significance level is lower than probability value 0.05 (0.00 < 0.05) so it can be concluded that brand’s image has a positive influence toward customer satisfaction. b) f-test

with significance level of 0.000, due to significance level 0.000 < α = 0,05 so there are simultaneous influences of price (x 1 ), product quality (x 2 ), and brand’s image (x 3 ) toward customer satisfaction (y) in the industry of batik tamina. c) coefficient determination test by knowing the value of coefficient determination it can be explained the goodness of regression model in predicting the dependent variables. the higher the value of coefficient i n t e r n a t i o n a l j o u r n a l o f i s l a m i c b u s i n e s s a n d e c o n o m i c s , 1 ( 1 ) j u n e 2 0 1 7 , 4 3 5 2 53 determination will make the better capability of independent variables in describing the behaviour of dependent variables. coefficient determination test result can be seen from the value of adjusted r square in multiple regression analysis. table 6. coefficient determination test model summary(b) model r r square adjusted r square std. error of the estimate 1 ,655(a) ,429 ,405 1,43796 a. predictors (constant): price, quality product, brand’s image based on table 4.10, coefficient determination has adjusted r square of 0.405. it means that 40.5% of customer decision (y) that can be explained by the independent variables are the variable of price, product quality, and brand’s image. while the rest (100% 40.5% = 59.5%) are explained by other variables outside the models that are not explained in this study. 4. conclusion the result of significance of individual parameters test (t-test), the influences of each of independent variables toward dependent variables and test of overall coefficient regression (f-test) can be illustrated as follows: 1. the influence of price (x 1 ) toward customer satisfaction. t value – price (x 1 ) of 1.689 with significance level of 0.046 due to significance level is 0,046 < α = 0,05 so it can be concluded that price (x 1 )partially has an influence toward customer satisfaction (y) of batik tamina in pekalongan city. price has a positive influence toward customer satisfaction, where the higher batik’s price increase so it can increase the customer satisfaction as well. 2. the influence of product quality (x 2 ) toward customer decision. t value – product quality (x 2 ) of 1.50 with significance level of 0.0138 due to significance level is 0,138 > α = 0,05 so it can be concluded that partially product quality (x 2 ) has no influence toward customer satisfaction (y) of batik tamina in pekalongan city. product quality has no positive influence toward customer satisfaction, where the higher product quality of batik probably cannot satisfy its customer satisfaction. 3. the influence of brand’s image (x 3 ) toward customer decision. t value – brand’s image (x 3 ) of 4.218 with significance level of 0.021due to significance level is 0.00 <α = 0.05 so it can be concluded that brand’s image (x 3 ) partially has a positive influence toward customer satisfaction (y) of batik tamina in pekalongan city. it means that if the brand’s image is good, it will increase its customer satisfaction. this is because brand’s image is easier to know compared to any other physical form. 4. the influence of price, product quality, and brand’s image toward customer satisfaction. based on the result of simultaneous significance test (f-test) that f value of 18.039 with significance level of 0.000 due to significance level is 0.000 < α = 0.05, this result shows that the independent variables; price, product quality, and brand’s image simultaneously has a significant influence toward customer satisfaction of batik tamina in pekalongan city. based on regression analysis obtained the value of adjusted r square of 0.405 which means that the contribution of product quality and brand’s image that simultaneously has an influence toward customer decision is 40.5% and the rest is 59.5% that can be explained by other variables that are not mentioned in this study. i n t e r n a t i o n a l j o u r n a l o f i s l a m i c b u s i n e s s a n d e c o n o m i c s , 1 ( 1 ) j u n e 2 0 1 7 , 4 3 5 254 suggestion based on the conclusion of the study above, then the following suggestions are proposed for the industry of batik tamina. 1. it is better to be able to maximize the use of quality materials to ensure product quality is maintained so that the company’s goal to maximize the profit can be achieved. 2. product efficiency must be performed due to the very elasticity price in the market. 3. must be able to manage the company well so that the brand’s image that has already known is maintained. 4. with a price that matches the better product quality and brand’s image that are known by the customers so a business will run smoothly and will generate high profits. references abdullah, thamrin and

2022, 17-25 1. introduction customer satisfaction is a measure of marketing performance that is considered to be in the product and becomes an expectation, realizing the importance of satisfaction results in high loyalty, therefore companies are required to maintain customer bias, one of the keys to maintaining customers with relationship marketing. relationship marketing is receiving great attention in western studies. although relationship marketing research is a popular topic, research on relationship marketing from an islamic perspective is very limited. relationship marketing from an islamic perspective is interesting because it is very relevant to be practiced in today's business development. in relationships with consumers that are fostered not only short-term relationships, but also long-term relationships. to achieve this, the company is not only oriented towards sales transactions, but also maintains good relationships with consumers. islamic relations are practiced through vertical and horizontal interactions. through the concept of tawhid, the vertical interaction between humans and creators is emphasized (arham, 2010). meanwhile, horizontal interaction highlights interactions between humans and other creations (yusuf, 2015). islamic relationship marketing (irm) emphasizes islamic values such as oneness (tawhid) which can be reflected in an honest attitude and feeling that allah swt has always been supervised in conducting business activities. in a business context, islamic marketing is a strategic business discipline that directs the process of creating, offering, and exchanging value from one initiator to stakeholders where the entire process must be in accordance with the principles of business in islam (sula & kartajaya, 2006). islamic relationship marketing (irm) as measured by islamic ethical behavior, social ties, structural ties, and financial or financial ties has been shown to significantly affect future customer retention or loyalty (salleh, 2016). every business entity, including the batik industry, really needs a relationship marketing process; this is all done to find the lifetime value of the customer so that it can be enlarged from year to year, with the aim of getting new customers at a relatively lower cost. in the context of relationships with business partners, trust plays a very important role (morgan, r. m., & hunt, 1994). trust plays an important role in every organizational relationship. trust allows partners to be manage risk and be selfless in transactions. there is an element of trust in every transaction, although it varies between trading partners. previous studies have found that trust can guides behavior in some business settings (doney & cannon, 1997; morgan, r. m., & hunt, 1994), and when trust is present, the risk of selfinterest and market volatility is reduced. in addition, (smith & barclay, 1997) found that trust significantly influences the attitudes and behavior of suppliers towards buyers in recent years the interest in understanding trust in organizations has increased, this is driven by evidence that trust has a number of benefits for organizations (kramer, 1999). in some literature it is stated that trust promotes healthy teamwork and teamwork, improves communication and satisfaction, creates a more positive attitude (mayer, r. c., davis, j. h., & schoorman, 1995) customer satisfaction provides many benefits for the company, and a greater level of customer satisfaction. in the long run, it is more profitable to retain good customers than to continually attract and nurture new customers to replace departing customers. satisfied consumers will spread positive word of mouth and will indirectly become ambassadors for walking and talking advertising for a company, which will lower costs of attracting new customers as seen in the figure below regarding the benefits of customer satisfaction. thus, to achieve good customer satisfaction, it is necessary to build a relationship outside the existing product context, by building relational relationships and international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 17-25 19 developing a good brand image so that consumers are more satisfied (tse & wilton, 1988). one of the factors that can shape customer loyalty is satisfaction. according to (schnaars, 1991) basically the purpose of a business is to create satisfied customers. customer satisfaction has a positive impact on loyalty. the creation of customer satisfaction can provide several benefits, including the relationship between the company and its customers being harmonious, providing a good basis for repurchasing, creating loyalty, and forming word-of-mouth recommendations that are beneficial for the company (magdalena, 2014). 2. research method this study uses a quantitative approach. the formulation of hypotheses in this study is based on constructs that are built from predetermined literature. five hypotheses were compiled in testing. using spss 25 the analysis technique used is path path analysis, with a linear model that allows for a mediation relationship, mediation testing is carried out after testing the hypothesis. in testing the hypothesis, data was collected through a direct questionnaire to the research object, namely the buyer of batik in the wholesale market of setono, pekalongan. sampling in this study is categorized in nonprobability sampling with purposive sampling technique. the sampling criteria in this study are respondents who have bought more than once within 6 months april to september 2020 and are over seventeen years old, are muslim. a total of 76 questionnaires were distributed. 3. results and discussion validity and reliability of the research instrument the validity test was carried out with the help of the spss 23 program with a significance level of 5% or 0.05. if r count> r table, then it is said to be valid and vice versa. in this research, it can be done with a significance test that compares the calculated r value with the r table value for degree of freedom (df) = n 2. in this case n is the number of samples. the number of samples in this study was 76. the magnitude of df = 76-2 or df = 74 with 5% alpha (0.05) obtained r table = 0.2257. the results of the analysis can be seen in the table as follows: table 1.instrument

test shows that the calculated r value of each question item is greater than the r table, this indicates that each question item in each variable is declared valid. table 2. instrument reliability test results source: author (2021), processed data spss 23 the instrument reliability test shows the extent to which the measurement results remain consistent, if two or more measurements are made of the same symptoms using the same instrument. the criterion of an instrument is said to be reliable if it produces a cronbach's alpha value> 0.70. the results of the instrument reliability calculation show that the cronbach alpha value for the islamic relationship marketing variable is 0.782. for trust variable 0.765, customer satisfaction variable 0.769 and loyalty 0.805 all cronbach alpha values are higher than 0.7 so that they can be analyzed as a reliable research instrument. path analysis is an extension of multiple linear regression analysis. there are two path analysis used in this research, the first path analysis is to test islamic relationship marketing and trust has an effect on satisfaction. while the second path analysis in this study is to test islamic relationship marketing has an effect on loyalty, trust has an effect on loyalty and variable cronbach’s alpha description islamic relationship marketing (x1) 0,782 reliabel trust (x2) 0,765 reliabel customer

the results of the first path test are the correlation of islamic relationship marketing variables and trust with customer satisfaction, in the first line analysis also produces a beta value of 0.439 islamic relationship marketing variables with a significance level of 0.000 <0.05, this shows that islamic relationship marketing has a positive effect on customer satisfaction . likewise, the trust variable produces a beta value of 0.427 with a significance level of 0.00 <0.05. r square is the percentage variation in the dependent variable explained by the independent variable. if the value of r square is 1, then the independent variable is used fully in predicting the dependent variable. in testing the first hypothesis, an r square is obtained of 0.39.2. from this value it can be interpreted that the islamic relationship marketing and trust variables explain 39.2% of customer satisfaction and other variables besides islamic relationship marketing and trust explain 60.8%. the results of the second pathway test calculate the correlation between islamic relationship marketing variables, trust and customer satisfaction with loyalty. in the second path analysis produces a beta value of 0.198 for the islamic relationship marketing variable with a significance level of 0.034 <0.05, this indicates that islamic relationship marketing has a positive effect on consumer loyalty. likewise, the trust variable produces a beta value of 0.178 with a significance level of 0.000 <0.05. then the consumer satisfaction variable produces beta 0.415 with a significance level of 0.000 <0.05. the results of the path analysis show that all pathways have a significant effect on the dependent variable. the r square for the second line produces a value of 0.502. from this value it can be interpreted that the islamic relationship marketing, brand image and customer satisfaction variables explain 50.2% of consumer loyalty and other variables besides islamic relationship marketing, trust and satisfaction explain 49.8%. model 1 mediation test testing the mediation hypothesis is carried out using a procedure developed by (sobel, 1982). the sobel test is a test tool used to determine the significance of the indirect relationship of the exogenous variables of islamic relationship marketing and trust to the endogenous variables of consumer loyalty through customer satisfaction as an intervening variable. this research examines whether there is a mediating effect of islamic relationship marketing and trust in research, testing mediation estimates two regression equations. irm trust customer satifaction costumer loyality β3 = 0,198 β1= 0,439 β5= 0,415 β2=0,427 β4=0,178 e1= 0,631 e2= 0,541 22 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 17-25 the first is to examine the effect of islamic relationship marketing on loyalty through consumer decision. the value of the influence of the islamic relationship marketing variable on consumer loyalty through customer satisfaction is obtained from the multiplication of the value of β1 and β5, namely 0.439 x 0.415 = 0.182. this shows that the value of the indirect effect of the islamic relationship marketing variable on customer loyalty through customer satisfaction is 0.182. with the t value of 4.227> 0.1665, this shows that customer satisfaction mediates the effect of islamic relationship marketing on consumer loyalty. the value of the influence of the trust variable on consumer loyalty through customer satisfaction is obtained from the multiplication of the value of β2 and β5, namely 0.427 x 0.415 = 0.177. this shows that the value of the indirect effect of the trust variable on loyalty through customer satisfaction is 0.177. with the t value of 4,140> 0.1665, this shows that customer satisfaction mediates trust in consumer loyalty. discussion this study tries to propose and test the effect of islamic relationship marketing, trust and customer satisfaction on consumer loyalty. in addition, this study also investigates the influence of the mediating relationship between islamic relationship marketing and trust on consumer loyalty mediated by the variable customer satisfaction. the result show that the higher the level of customer satisfaction, the higher customer loyalty (kotler and amstrong, 2006). the results of the first path research show that islamic relationship marketing has an effect on customer satisfaction, islamic relationship marketing itself is shown by islamic ethical behavior, social ties, structural ties, and financial or financial ties. all advantages or benefits in a relationship are obtained through islamic relationship marketing which is applied in the batik industry in central java. the results of this study further strengthen and clarify that islamic relationship marketing contributes to customer satisfaction. the influence of the variable customer trust on customer satisfaction shows a positive influence or has a unidirectional relationship, which means that if customer trust increases, it will increase customer satisfaction. customer trust is closely related to customer satisfaction with a product, service and service. customer trust arises because of the satisfaction obtained by customers from the results of the perceived performance of products, services and services. the results of this study support the findings in research conducted by bricci et al., (2016) which show that customer trust has a direct positive effect on customer satisfaction in the distribution sector in portugal. the results of this study are also in line with the results of gul (2014) research which proves that the trust variable has a significant effect on satisfaction. the second line test results show that customer satisfaction also affects customer loyalty where people are satisfied with the trust instilled and maintaining good relations with the company resulting in customer loyalty to a company. the results of the study the direct influence of the islamic relationship marketing variable on customer loyalty shows a positive influence. the results of this study further strengthen and clarify that islamic relationship marketing contributes to customer satisfaction to be more loyal to the company. this result in line with the results of previous studies (faraj aldaihani, bin ali, hashim, & basha, 2020; huang, 2015; omar & ali, 2010; salleh, abdullah, & razali, 2012). the test results show that satisfaction has a significant effect on loyalty. theoretically, delivering customer value through satisfaction ultimately makes customers loyal, both in the form of providing recommendations and making repeat purchases. likewise, some research international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 17-25 23 states that the value of consumer sacrifice indirectly affects consumer satisfaction and the desire to buy back behavior intention (bi) (abdur rehman, osman, aziz, koh, & awais, 2020; cronin, brady, & hult, 2000). the results of this study explain that to increase customer loyalty, companies must build trust and maintain marketing relationships with customers so that customer satisfaction can be achieved and maintain this level of satisfaction in the long term. to increase customer satisfaction, companies must add value that can get them what they expect, by building islamic marketing relationships and maintaining customer trust so they can survive and lead to repeat purchases and make loyal customers (al abdulrazak & gbadamosi, 2017; aldaihani & ali, 2019; decker & mohammed, 2014; hidayat, akhmad, & machmud, 2015). 4. conclusion this study propose and investigates how to build loyalty from intangible assets, islamic relationship marketing and trust. using the resource based view (rbv) as a theory that identifies a company's strategic advantage based on a combination of assets, expertise, capacities and special intangible assets owned by the company and analyzes data on loyalty, customer satisfaction, islamic relationship marketing and in trust, it can be concluded that building loyalty must go through a long process, and islamic relationship marketing and trust variables have a contribution to achieve customer satisfaction which leads to loyalty, this is evident from the path analysis results which show a positive influence between the variables used. in the new era of normalcy, a number of loyalty building programs can be carried out by business people, by maintaining trust and good relationships. some recommendations for future research are adding tangible variables, because this study does not use them, besides that the sample size and area coverage also need to be expanded. references abdur rehman, m., osman, i., aziz, k., koh, h., & awais, m.

(2018), opportunities and challenges utilize knowledge coming from the individual experiences to help organizations create their values. experience has been widely discussed as a new approach to the human resource management to achieve the organizational goals (plaskoff, 2017). breakthroughs or innovation ideas are manifestations of knowledge and experience, untapped potential to create value (ronald mascitelli, 2000). in general, experience brings knowledge gained during certain periods. manson (2018) provided an interesting writing about experience. he explained that a desire to pursue a positive experience was a negative experience unless the acceptance of negative experience was a positive experience. this means solving problems and events in the past provide important knowledge to deal with current problems. islam recognizes knowledge as a compulsory inquiry. through the muslims’ life, allah, the creator, tests us in different ways, such as taste of death and do evil (al-quran chapter 21, verse 35) and gives reward those who do evil and goodness (al-quran chapter 53, verse 31). muslims have experienced various events during their lives, been considered as valuable life lessons and possibly used as experience. this experience will make people wiser and have a broader perspective in facing a challenge and making a decision. thus, an experience is fitted to use as a knowledge source. the, source of knowledge in islamic concept is different from that in materialistic atheist and other religious metaphysical concepts which only recognizes things with a physical form and tangible evidence (material) and does not trust or recognize the nonmaterial entities (such as revelation) (azram, 2012). islam can uniquely give a different color in viewing experience. knowledge gained from experience will make people develop better without falling into the same hole for the second time. in addition, the experience will encourage people to make various efforts, gratitude, and patience to increase their faith in god in facing the given tests. 2. methods discussions regarding experience-based knowledge from an islamic perspective are rarely found in the previous literature. in contrast, this experience-based knowledge can create value/competitive advantage for individuals in terms of increasing spiritual aspects, abilities, and behaviors that are difficult to imitate by other individuals. in addition, this is clouded because experience with tested and recognized values has not been discussed before. therefore, this paper fills the gap and offers a more comprehensive model of experience-based knowledge from the islamic view that has not been discussed before. the quality of individual knowledge has been based on the quality and variety of experiences gained. this paper seeks to find sources of knowledge based on experience that has been tested and recognized for its values by allah and is explained clearly through the al-quran and hadith. this study uses a qualitative approach based on a literature review from the alquran, al-hadith, and previous relevant literature to produce a credible islamic knowledgebased experience model. then, the results of this study are expected to contribute to the development of theories related to islamic experience-based knowledge and benefits that are disseminated for the development of individuals, organizations, and society. discussion in this paper is divided into 3 sections. section one discusses the background of this study. section two deals with the results and discussion from what the scholars have discussed on the subject of experience-based knowledge and suggest the proposed model of islamic international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 71-85 73 experience-based knowledge. section four contains the conclusions. 3. result and discussion 3.1. experience-based knowledge this section explains the islamic view on knowledge and experience and how experience can produce intangible knowledge useful for individuals. experience-based knowledge belonging to individuals possibly assists organizations in dealing with the increasingly competitive business and technology. therefore, the important role of this aspect in the organization as a competitive advantage/uniqueness that other organizations cannot imitate are explained in this section. aktharsha (2011) described knowledge from the islamic perspective. he further argued that knowledge was possibly combined with experience, context, interpretation, reflection, intuition, and creativity. however, he suggested that knowledge started from information. after processed in an individual’s mind, information possibly became knowledge. allah, as mentioned in chapter 96, verse 1-5, is the creator who teaches human with what they have not known yet. islam explains knowledge related to allah, the purpose of creation, and the relationship between allah and his creation as priority. in islam, the best way to seek knowledge is by making interactions with the nature and other creatures created by allah. in each creation, there are always hidden secrets and humans must try to achieve them with knowledge (al-quran chapter 3 verse 190 and chapter 29, verse 20). however, azram (2012) and salam & shaikh (2014) noted that the concept of islamic knowledge should be notified that the humans’ reasons and senses are limited so that not all knowledge and creation of allah can be well recognized. hence, the concept of absolute knowledge where only allah is all-knowing and the concept of functional knowledge is the evolutionary process of transmitting knowledge and experience gained from the universe appears. both concepts are based on tawhid's law to increase faith in allah. in the western views, azram (2012) argued that knowledge means information about something, divinity and physical matters, while "ilm" (knowledge) means everything which includes theory, action, and education. thus, the knowledge defined by the western perspective has failed describing "ilm" (azram, 2012). one of the scholars studying the theory of knowledge from the western perspective is immanuel kant (salam & shaikh, 2014). he divided the knowledge types into priory and posterior knowledge. the former received its truth without going through the observation and experience processes, while the later received its truth through the observation and experience processes. thus, it can be concluded that there is a relationship between experience-based knowledge and experience-based learning where the knowledge is obtained based on the learning processes from various experiences. experience is an event in certain periods made by humans or in other words, a practical association of humans with the world, nature, or social environment. roth & jornet (2014) further argued that experience is a category of thought, a minimum unit of analysis including intellectual and practical characteristics with social environments and the influencing relationships. they also explained that experience is related to practical, intellectual, and emotional matters. it means that experience not only brings knowledge and practical teaching of the occurred events (related to intellectual) but also with emotional feelings, memories, hopes, and faith. hence, through experience, humans can record every event either in practical, emotional, or intellectual manner and repeated in the future to ease humans make their best decisions. further studies have been conducted by considine et al. (2007) in identifying the three experience criteria consisting of passage of time (a certain period), acquiring skills and 74 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 71-85 knowledge, and exposure to the joined events. experience is often gained in certain periods and used to determine the position of human resources (hr) in certain fields. furthermore, they explained that gaining skills and knowledge can directly explain that experience is a knowledge source. each experience will always be followed by exposure to an event which in the future will help the decision making of an issue. individual knowledge and abilities increase with the quality and variety of experiences gained, known, and passed. the quality of experience referred to here is related to values that have been tested and impact imprinted knowledge (not forgotten). ganguly et al. (2019) explain that valuable and quality knowledge is described as the acquisition of useful, innovative knowledge and is seen from the extent to which this knowledge can complete individual activities. the quality of experience will produce valuable knowledge and will continue to be involved in decision-making. this means that individuals will sort out the knowledge gained from the quality of experience that is suitable for decision-making in solving current challenges. in addition to the quality of experience, the variety of experiences also plays a vital role in increasing individual knowledge. it should be noted that experienced individuals are not judged by how long they have been in certain types of work or conditions but are determined by how many different experiences they have gone through. different types of experience events in the same field will help individuals become experts. however, to gain knowledge from diverse experiences, individuals do not have to experience these experiences first. because under certain conditions, this actually causes time delays for the completion of activities and increases the losses that may occur. thus, individuals can take other alternatives by learning from experiences from external sources, such as the experience of experts and other people. furthermore, the study of mohamed et al. (2019) have explained that knowledge from a western point of view is only obtained through the experience of the five human senses. it is based on the idea that there is no prior knowledge before experience and beyond the five human senses. however, islam has a different view regarding this matter. azram (2012) and salam & shaikh (2014) explain that there is an absolute concept to seek knowledge in islam. this concept explains that the knowledge obtained by humans is only partial because basically human reason and five senses are limited, and humans can study not all knowledge and creations of allah swt because only allah is all-knowing, including the concept of experience-based knowledge in islam. humans are often confused about getting the right source of knowledge from authentic (sahih) experience. therefore, islam has guided in the form of quality and diverse sources of experience with values that have been tested and recognized by allah, namely the al-quran and hadith that tell the experiences and stories of certain prophets so that humans can take lessons. in the end, individuals can not only improve their abilities but also improve their spiritual aspects and improve their behavior through experience-based knowledge sourced from the qur'an and hadith. therefore, it can be concluded that islamic experience-based knowledge referred to in this paper refers to the learning process to add and take knowledge from various experiences of high quality and variety and have tested and recognized values (from the al-quran and hadith). islam has a different approach to explain experience. the world is a place of testing humans. every good and bad event comes as a form of test (al-quran chapter 29, verse 2) to increase the faith of his servants. thus, it can be concluded that allah will always test his servants by giving pleasure and calamity to educate humans learn to always be patient and grateful for everything given by allah. as reported in the history of hadith from al-thabrani international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 71-85 75 in al-mu'jam al-kabir from the abu hind al-dari, life on earth is only temporary and a place of competition to win the blessing of allah, the al-mighty. good and bad events will be remembered as experience. humans have intellectuals to interpret experience as learning materials and knowledge due to the occurring good and bad experiences during the humans’ life. knowledge gained from experience will provide people with valuable motivation, lessons, and warnings to move on to their next life. the knowledge gained from experience will strengthen the human mindset to have a broader perspective in dealing with problems in the future. likewise, allah gives good and bad events to his servants in order to make them better human beings. the reward is clearly mentioned in al-hadith from muslim no 918 said by ummu, one of the wives of the prophet muhammad. she heard the prophet said: “anyone from the servants who was struck by a disaster then he said: "inna lillahi wa inna ilaihi rooji’un. allahumma'jurnii fii mushibatii wa akhlif lii khoiron minhaa [we belongs to allah and to him we shall return. o allah, compensate me in my affliction and replace my loss with something better] ", then allah will reward him and replace his loss with a better substitute”. allah will not give a test beyond the ability of his servants. the rewards given to those who are patient and gratitude to allah are heaven. thus, if humans are in troubles, they should get closer and ask allah’s help. experience is an indicator of someone’s credibility in various fields to provide advice to the next generation. experience is a prerequisite and source of wisdom, not only related to the raw intellectual power but also the formation of good maturity, emotions, and mentality. seeking knowledge to obtain the blessings from allah, the al-mighty will bring us closer to the pious people. making friends with those people will always remind someone to allah, including in terms of seeking the truth of knowledge (al-quran chapter 9 verse 119, chapter 18 verse 28, and chapter 26 verse 83). in workplace, experience is needed to support the human resources’ performance and productivity (r. kotur & anbazhagan, 2014). plaskoff (2017) explained that human resources’ experience can be defined as human resources’ holistic perception on the relationship of experience with the employing organizations throughout the life journey of human resources. he explained that the life journey of human resources has various milestones and interactions (or points of contact), and the quality of human resources’ experience has a direct influence on the employees’ satisfaction, engagement, commitment, and ultimately, performance. experience is a source of knowledge and helps the decision making in a related field of work (considine et al., 2007). according to north et al. (2018), experience-based knowledge is good or best practice, lessons that can be taken, tacit knowledge (knowledge that is difficult to document and transfer to others), and explicit knowledge (knowledge with easily transferable and documented). the human resources with good working experiences can be leaders with special talents while performing the works, such as specific abilities and tacit knowledge (r. kotur & anbazhagan, 2014). the individuals with many experiences can help the decision making when facing a challenge, crisis, and other unexpected conditions (north et al., 2018). someone brings the tacit knowledge from unique experience and becomes an added value and competitive advantage which cannot be imitated by others and competitors. however, for some conditions, organizations have not been able to optimally manage the human resources’ tacit knowledge gained from experience which is actually difficult to describe and document. 76 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 71-85 3.2. the essence of learning through experience in islam this section explains the role of humans as knowledge and truth seekers from the knowledge source, allah. the essence of learning processes will be described from an islamic perspective in which knowledge can be obtained from experience through learning processes. this section also describes that learning processes can not only be performed based on an individual’s personal experience but also from others’, experts’, and those said in al-quran and al-hadith. humans are leaders sent by allah to prosper the earth and its contents. to support his duty as caliph, allah has equipped humans with common senses. this provision can be used to study and seek knowledge within the framework of mandates given by allah. in history told by ibn majah in al-hadith no. 224, from a companion, anas bin malik radhiyallahu 'anhu, validated by al albani in shahiih al-jaami'ish shaghiir no. 3913, learning knowledge is compulsory for each muslim. the nature of humans as knowledge users is to learn and seek knowledge and get happiness in the world and hereafter. but when seeking and receiving this knowledge, humans must always remember who is the true owner knowing all the knowledge in the world, is allah, the al-mighty. the gained knowledge can not only develop humans’ emotional and intellectual aspects but also foster to love allah from the spiritual aspects (bakir et al., 2015). kolb et al. (2001) described learning as the process in which knowledge is created through the experience transformation. learning is a process of changing human behaviors as a result of interactions with the environment and also described as a process for retrieving and transferring information and experiences (sakilah, 2009). lewis (1999) further argued that if humans want to get a life lesson, they have to go out and seek experiences (both positive and negative) because experience is the best teacher. this has been stated in al-qur’an and al-hadith on the importance of seeking knowledge. allah said in al-qur'an chapter 39 verse 9: “…say (unto them, o muhammad): are those who know equal with those who know not? but only men of understanding will pay heed” besides, islam will give the highest degree to those who provide seeking knowledge and faith (al-quran chapter 58 verse 11 and chapter 17 verse 36) by learning from experience, humans will get the wisdom to become better human beings. knowledge submitted by humans (based on faith) will prevent humans from actions taken by allah and avoid those harm others. sakilah (2013) described learning process in islam starting from the cognitive (akliyah) stage which clearly has the cognitive functions and important tools used as the learning tools (human senses and intellect). the cognitive functions and tools actively determine the success to acquire knowledge in both short and long terms. she also explained that the results obtained in learning could be seen through changes and mastery of cognitive knowledge, changes in mental and awareness (affective), and changes in motor (psychomotor) actions. furthermore, the experience learning resources are described further in this paper. a) learning from experiences said in al-qur'an and hadith al-qur’an and hadith are the main sources of experience-based knowledge tested and recognized by allah al-mighty, so they become sources of authentic experience for humans. valuable experience that humans can use is by examining and describing various stories said international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 71-85 77 in al-qur'an, such as the stories of people denying allah, the prophet’s struggles, and the servants in obtaining allah’s blessings (al-quran chapter 12 verse 111). al-quran always explains allah's greatness signs so that humans can make contemplations. al-quran is the true guidance for humanity. in al-qur'an, various stories are said for humans to take the valuable lessons. lessons and knowledge from al-qur’an are used as a way of life to leave allah’s prohibitions and perform allah’s orders. in the end, the purpose of learning from the experiences narrated in the qur'an is not only to improve individual abilities but to produce wider benefits, especially in aspects of spirituality and behavior (akhlaq). b) learning from your own experiences humans were born with a pure and empty state. thus, allah equips humans with senses and intellectuals to seek the scientific truths (al-quran chapter 16 verse 78). the willingness to learn from personal experiences is essential. in learning process, the events independently experienced and studied will provide different sensations. feelings, memories, knowledge, and time poured on the experienced events will provide deeper learning to individuals. islam teaches people to take the lessons from the events that they have experienced themselves. be more careful and don't fall into the same hole (al-quran chapter 24 verse 17). experience exists to fill the space in humans’ mind and heart with the knowledge to be more careful when facing similar problems in the future. allah has also warned muslims not to return to the devil's seduction and deception which mislead to immoral acts. personal experience provides a lesson not to repeat the same mistakes. the more personal experiences an individual has, he/she will be more mature mentally, emotionally, and in knowledge. an individual will be wiser in dealing with anything because they have already had a broader life perspective. therefore, it is not surprising that age can also determine a person's mental maturity due to given the experiences gained during his/her life. c) learning from others’ experiences in addition to learning from their personal experience, humans can also take the lessons from others’ experiences. allah has created humans as social creatures to interact with others (alquran chapter 49 verse 13). as social beings, humans are advised to kindly help each other and learn from others’ experiences. through others’ experience, humans can take the lessons in anticipating a problem without spending time to experiencing things by themselves. learning from others’ experiences continuously can make the civilizations in the world grow well. thus, personal experiences and others’ experiences can be the best teachers for humans to learn and bring their success. d) learning from the experts' experiences in exploring a particular field, a person often has to go through a long life journey. individuals who are referred to become experts must study for a long time mastering a particular field. a long life journey will form experience to provide instruction for individuals in the same field. thus, if there are difficulties in the field of science, individuals should ask questions and learn from the experts from the related fields to find solutions. 3.3. experience upgrades capability this section discusses definition of capability and impact of experience to increase the individual capability. in islamic perspective, mandate and responsibility must be given to competent individuals, while the related individuals must honestly perform the mandate and responsibility. in an individual context, a capability is described as a combination of resources, the capacity, and ability to perform activity better than competitors (persson & stirna, 2015). 78 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 71-85 pyles & banerjee (2010) explained that a capability approach focuses on what individuals can and able to do. in the organizational context, according to españa et al. (2015), capability is described as the ability and capacity which enables a company to achieve the business objectives in a particular context. pyles & banerjee (2010) have introduced 10 centers of human ability functioning to improve the welfare including (a) life; (b) physically fit; (c) bodily integrity; (d) senses, imagination and mind; (e) emotions; (f) practical reasons; (g) affiliation; (h) other species; (i) playing; and (j) controlling one's environment. humans are free to choose to or not to develop this ability as a function in this approach. it means that the ability belonging to someone will be the determinant to improve his/her life welfare. thus, increasing capability is an absolute aspect to improve. the knowledge gained from experience will help someone improve their abilities. with this experience, the human resources will more easily complete the targets given by the organization. experience can enhance the ability to innovate the human resources (ronald mascitelli, 2000). the number of experiences of an individual helps him complete the tasks and responsibilities faster so that the productivity is higher than that of human resources without experiences. thus, human resources should be allowed to gain greater trust to help the organization achieve its goals. ability in a particular field will help someone maintain the trust given by the organization. amanah (trust) is one of the prophet’s qualities. islam itself explains that certain tasks and authorities should be given to credible people who can well maintain the given mandate. at the same time, the trusted individuals are not allowed to deny the given mandate (al-quran chapter 4 verse 58 and chapter 23 verse 8). from the psychological aspect, experience stimulates growth in mind and behavior characteristics as well as increases the ability of individuals to learn and solve problems (rosenzweig & bennett, 1996). the ability to solve problems and learning process are often associated with the ability of individuals and organizations to adopt wisdom from various experiences. heimeriks & duysters (2007) found that experience is an important factor influencing an individual's learning process in increasing the ability (both mental and productivity) to achieve the maximum performance. through this discussion, it can be concluded that experience-based knowledge can stimulate and increase an individual’s mental abilities, behaviors, and performances (ability in learning processes and solving problems) to become more productive. 3.4. the important of experience-based knowledge sharing knowledge sharing is an important part to discuss in this section. knowledge sharing is when individuals mutually exchange knowledge and create new knowledge (li et al., 2017). in the knowledge sharing concept , two processes take place, including knowledge donating which refers to providing one's intellectual capital to others, and knowledge collecting which refers to consulting with others to get a portion of their intellectual capital (hooff & weenen, 2004; li et al., 2017). the best knowledge is the knowledge which is useful for others, environment, and society. islam always teaches muslims to share knowledge with others. the knowledge teaching virtues include obtaining rewards from allah. the person has done good deeds (amal ma'ruf), especially to improve the social order by advising in the forms of help increase the piety to allah, as well as guiding and educating other people (al-quran chapter 3 verse 110). however, one should share the true knowledge without misleading others. kahfi (2006) explained that some rules should be known when conveying messages and information to others according to islam: (1) qashash/naba al haq (must be reported based on actual events to avoid false news) based on al-quran chapter 11 verse 120; (2) a’mar international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 71-85 79 ma’ruf nahyi munkar, (must bring goodness and prevent the people from making any sin); (3) tabayyun (must be confirmed in advance through a clarification process); (4) mauizhah hashanah (must contain good role models imitated and applied to the lives of people who have received the information); (5) hikmah (providing information to convey the firm and true words); (6) layyin (should use gentle, non-violent and abusive language). sudarti & zulfa (2020) found that da'wah is part of knowledge sharing and is one of the characteristics of the islamic vanguard spirit (al-quran chapter 3 verse 104, chapter 90 verse 17-18). they explained that the information shared was one of the efforts to make improvements in an organization. while hiding important information for personal gain is not justified. knowledge sharing is a key factor in building competitive advantage (muñozpascual et al., 2020) and has a significant relationship to improve the quality of hr (human capital) owned by the organization (oliveira et al., 2020). kader jilani et al. (2020) explained that in line with the theory of human capital, they found that knowledge-sharing attitudes and behavior among human resources can strengthen the dynamic capabilities of an organization and help it achieve sustainability. in organization, the development of islamic knowledge management can form superior human resources, such as moral, intellectual, knowledge, and skill responsibilities (bakir et al., 2015). the activity of gathering and sharing knowledge in an organization is performed to educate the human resources as a whole so that the risk of knowledge belonging to only a few people becomes smaller. dysvik et al. (2015) revealed that knowledge sharing might become a competitive advantage for an organization. they also explained that successful exchange of knowledge between the givers and collectors could be a fundamental way of human resources to contribute in disseminating knowledge and increasing the productivity and performance at the teams’ and organizations’ analysis level. li et al. (2017) found that the success of knowledge sharing greatly depended on a commitment to the sharing and receiving. selain itu, sharing experiences that impart knowledge discreetly through daily work activities will help organizations create new knowledge in innovation (ganguly et al., 2019). based on this discussion, it can be concluded that sharing knowledge possibly benefits humans both in the world and the sight of allah. 3.5. discussion this section discusses the challenges of managing experience-based knowledge that generates tacit knowledge and how to overcome the challenges of managing experiencebased knowledge in an organization. matthew & sternberg (2009) said that experience-based knowledge develops over time through the repeated learning processes in the form of perceptions, actions, and feedback. experience-based learning is a cognitive process combined with the tacit knowledge. experience of tacit knowledge that is more complicated to code and express (ganguly et al., 2019). tacit knowledge as suggested by holste & fields (2010) is rooted in individual experiences and values. tacit knowledge naturally refers to intuitive knowledge but it is difficult to define or transfer because most of this knowledge is based on experience. tacit knowledge has been recognized as a result of experiential learning and basis for continuous learning (matthew & sternberg, 2009). new experiences bringing the tacit knowledge cause knowledge to develop continuously if managed properly. in addition, according to ganguly et al. (2019), the existence of tacit knowledge combined with socialization (sharing and receiving) can create new knowledge that increases an organization's innovation opportunities. however, managing this resource is still a challenge 80 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 71-85 for most organizations because every individual has different abilities in learning experience (practical intelligence) and acquiring other important components, such as tacit knowledge (matthew & sternberg, 2009; tamer cavusgil et al., 2003). although the resources above are difficult to transfer from one to the other (difficult to disclose), the effective transfer, sharing and use of knowledge are still essential in an organization. in addition, for some individuals who share tacit knowledge, it can involve various risks, such as loss of competitiveness and superiority when compared to peers and doubts related to the reputation of knowledge sources (holste & fields, 2010). the discussion above has provided an overview of some occurring problems hindered the management of experience-based knowledge resources including: (1) individual inability to absorb knowledge from experiences, (2) tacit knowledge coming from experience is often difficult to transfer or distribute to the other individuals, (3) individual unwillingness to share tacit knowledge gained for fear of losing competitiveness, (4) individual distrust to the knowledge sources. furthermore, the relationship between learning process and experience has been explained by kolb et al. (2001) in "experiential learning theory" emphasizing on the central role that experience plays its role in the learning process. there are four stages in the experiential learning theory including concrete experience (new experience of the situation at hand, or reinterpretation of the existing experiences), reflective observation (of new experiences; in which the most important thing is inconsistency between experience and understanding), abstract conceptualization (reflection brings up new ideas or modifications to the existing abstract concepts), and active experimentation (an individual applying the concept to the world and see the results). in the reflection stage, the ability to implicitly acquire knowledge from experience is recognized to be a very important stage in the process. however, each individual has different abilities to absorb the experience-based knowledge. thus, matthew & sternberg (2009) offered a "tacit knowledge reflection training" approach to selectively increase one's capacity to learn from experience. the experience will bring tacit knowledge naturally to an individual. thus, an obstacle often faced by individuals and organizations in managing this knowledge is the difficulty of sharing this resource because tacit knowledge is difficult to conceptualize (foos et al., 2006). most studies on knowledge transfer process are based on the broader knowledge concepts, while fewer studies are based on certain knowledge types with the targeted knowledge classifications. it means that sorting out the knowledge types is very important to support the organization's successful transfer of certain knowledge. north et al. (2018) outlined several methods used to exchange the human resources’ experience information within an organization, such as through training programs, succession planning, informal talks, mentoring, advanced training courses, formal meetings, moderated exchanging experiences, experts’ directories, written reports, and online platforms. the key to the transfer of tacit knowledge, both formal and informal, is the individuals’ willingness and capacity to share what they have known and use what they have learned (holste & fields, 2010). meanwhile, according to ganguly et al. (2019), the key to tacit knowledge sharing lies in the willingness and capacity of individuals to share what they know (knowledge donation) and use what they know (knowledge gathering). furthermore, they also explained that to close the occuring gaps, such as the individuals’ fear to share the tacit knowledge and doubt related to the knowledge sources, can be done by applying the affect-based trust (trust based on the caring relationships between individuals) and cognition-based trust (trust based on others’ reliability and competence). in addition, sudarti & zulfa (2020) explained international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 71-85 81 that in conveying tacit knowledge-based experiences to other human resources, islam teaches humans to (1) be enthusiastic in persuading others to make improvements (alquran chapter 3 paragraph 104), (2) use good language when persuading others (al-quran chapter 90 verse 17-18), and (3) persuading by setting an example first (al-quran chapter 61 verse 2-3). from the discussion above, it can be emphasized that problems in managing experience-based knowledge resources can be handled through (1) training to improve the ability to reflect the experience-based tacit knowledge, (2) sorting out the knowledge types and using different management methods, (3 ) instilling the principles and values of caring for sharing knowledge, (4) giving confidence related to the credibility of knowledge sources. 3.6. proposed model based on the results and previous discussions, this section offers an experience-based knowledge model based on the islamic perspective and previous literature studies, as seen in figure 1. figure 1. islamic experience-based knowledge model basically, human nature as a caliph is to seek allah's knowledge. but at this stage, humans must understand the absolute concept of tawhid, which states that only allah is allknowing. in contrast, humans have limited reason and five senses to absorb and understand all knowledge. then, individuals often obtain knowledge from the quality and variety of sources of experience that are known and obtained, figure 1. has described the main sources of authentic (sahih) experience coming from the experiences of the prophets the principle of sharing knowledge without misleading people human nature to seek allah's knowledge quality and diverse sources: the experiences told in al -qur'an and hadith (experiences of the prophets) personal experiences other people's experiences experts' experiences experience-based knowledge wisdom quality of tacit and explicit knowledge intuitive feelings period upgrade capability experience-based knowledge sharing there are knowledge refreshment and renewal looking for allah’s blessings improving behaviour (muhasabah) educating and developing others helping organizations achieve the goals knowledge sharing principles the principle of trust to receive knowledge receiving and maintainin g trust (amanah) ability to reflect or absorb knowledge gained from experiences 82 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021, 71-85 recounted in the qur'an and hadith and with a variety of other experiences that come from individual experiences, experiences of others, and expert experiences. the absorption stage of experience-based knowledge produces individual wisdom, quality tacit and explicit knowledge, and intuitive feelings that must be balanced with the individual's ability to absorb the knowledge gained from experience. all individuals have different abilities in taking learning from experience. this impacts the level of knowledge that has been collected, which then affects the abilities and skills of individuals. a collection of experience-based knowledge will improve individual abilities. this ability is often used as a measure to provide trust (amanah) and responsibility for certain work activities. individuals with good abilities will help achieve organizational goals, and islam recommends entrusting certain work activities to individuals with adequate abilities. in addition, islamic recommends da'wah to invite other people to good deeds, especially in sharing their knowledge. a collection of experiences often brings tacit knowledge that is difficult to share at this stage, figure 1. illustrates the various islamic principles that humans must implement to achieve success in sharing experience-based tacit knowledge, including the principles of sharing non-misleading knowledge, the principles of sharing caring-based science, and the principle of accepting trust-based knowledge. in the case of experiencebased tacit knowledge management in an organization, there are various methods that organizations can use, which can be seen in the previous section. the integration of these aspects will allow the development of science that provokes innovations, improvement of individual behavior through the stages of muhasabah learning from experience, educating and developing other individuals, increasing aspects of spirituality, especially to achieve blessings from allah, and in the case of organizations can be a competitive advantage that is difficult for other organizations to imitate. 4. conclusion experience-based knowledge in the islamic perspective has illustrated that humans can gather knowledge through a learning process from the quality and diverse experiences. this paper has found a source of experience-based knowledge that individuals can gain from various experiences that have gone through themselves, the experiences of others, the experiences of experts, and the experiences of the prophets recounted in the qur'an and hadith. al-quran and hadith are references to experience-based knowledge sources that have been tested and acknowledged by allah. this ends with the goal that humans can take lessons that improve aspects of ability, aspects of spirituality, and aspects of behavior (morals). the discussion of the experience-based knowledge model was based on islamic values listed in each supporting aspect and impact of experience-based knowledge. a collection of experience-based knowledge that is continuously shared and updated will support the emergence of innovations in today's science. in the end, the results of this study make an interesting contribution to the development of a more in-depth theory of experience-based knowledge from an islamic perspective. however, further studies are needed on the impact of islamic experience-based knowledge related to the role of humans in the development of industry 5.0 in the future. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 5(2) december 2021,

in bangladesh banking sector is facing severe consequences from lack of collection of non performing loan(non performing investment for islamic banks). emphasizing the significance of the subject the study is undertaken to find out how non performing investment effect performance of islamic banks in bangladesh for five year period from 2012 to 2016.statistical tests such as (descriptive statistics, correlation and regression analysis) are performed to find out the effect non performing investment have on the overall performance of islamic banks. correlation analysis opine negative association of non performing investment with bank performance, bank size and capital adequacy ratio. on the other hand, regression analysis did not found any significant effect of non performing investment with bank performance.. effect of non-performing investment on islamic banks performance: an empirical study on islamic banks in bangladesh 1 bba,mba, department of finance, university of chittagong,chattogram, bangladesh. 2 assistant professor, department of finance, university of chittagong, chattogram, bangladesh. corresponding email: shafir121@gmail.com2 1. shafir zaman1 2. md. mohiuddin chowdhury2 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 1-82 1. introduction in order to be an efficient economic system financial system should be transparent and accountable. banking industry as a life blood of economic system should be efficient. bank performance is satisfactory when banks can satisfy the customers with minimum risk and maximum return. poor performance of banking industry has a consequence on both the economy of a particular country and in the world economy,(khan and senhadji, 2001).among many risks facing by banks the most severe risk is the risk of non-recovery of loans (non performing investments for islamic banks) that are given to borrowers. default loans after a specific period become non-performing loans. nonperforming loans are not a source of earning for banks rather they are loss for banks (hennie, 2003). loopholes in the financial system, lack of inefficiency of management system, political influence are the prime reasons of nonperforming loan. in bangladesh there are almost 58 listed banks. at present the amount of npl is increasing in bangladesh. in 2010 the npl as an outstanding loan was 7.2% and in 2017 september it was 10.7%.the rate of npl ratio is much more higher than other neighbor countries. almost 45000 billion money was written off as npl (islam,m.a,2018).report from bangladesh bank(the central bank of bangladesh) stated that default loan have increased to 74303 crore in 2017 compared to 62172 crore in 2016.default loans as a portion of outstanding loans have also risen to 9.31% from 9.23% in 2017 compared to 2016 (mallick,s.2018).from the statistics it can be noticed that non-performing loan has become a major concern for financial industries of bangladesh specially for banking industry. the study is undertaken to discover how non performing investment effect islamic banks performance by analyzing the research question: do non performing investment effect the performance of islamic banks in bangladesh? although much research on this topic done by researchers are basically related with impact of npl in terms of banks profitability as well as how credit risk effect bank performance there is little work done considering how non perforimng investment can effect the performance of islamic banks. the research aims to remove research gap by studying how npi can effect performance of islamic banks in bangladesh and further opening a field for research in the topic throughout the world. 2. literature review the loans that cannot be collected by banks from customers are regarded non-performing loans. the prime cause that is responsible for non-performed loan is failure to choose potential customer i.e. the customers who can pay loans in right time (chowdhury,h.m.m.).other causes include:poor credit appraisal, high-interest rate, inflation, low amount of gdp (hou,2007).financial institutions especially banks suffer severely as a result of npl. reserves needed to be maintained by banks to guard against npl. increase in npl reduce banks profit which is in turn reduce income of banks. excess npl decreases the money flow in the economy which results in economic recession. for finding out the association between npl and bank efficiency of malaysia and singapore banks a study had been done by (karim, chan and hassan,2010) .the study revealed npi increases as a result of cost inefficiency of banks. to show how credit risk management effect the performance of nigerian banks for 2004 to 2008 (kargi,2011) conducted research. descriptive statistics, correlation and regression analysis were done. the result opined that credit risk had significant relationship with bank performance. further research emphasizing the impact of credit risk on nigerian bank performance for 20042008 by (hamisu,2011) revealed credit risk and bank profitability were significantly related. similar type of study on pakistani banks by (iftikhar,2016) found npl and capital adequacy ratio had significant existence with performance of bank (roa and roe). international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 1-8 3 a different type of study undertaken on central and eastern european countries for 2009-2012 to explore the association of npl with gdp, inflation and unemployment problem by (skarica,2014) found npl negative relationship with gdp and positive relationship with unemployment rate, inflation. to find out relationship between npl with profitability of nigerian banks for period of 2006 to 2012 research were done by (adebisi and benjamin,2015).the research found roa was insignificantly related with npl but roe was significantly related with npl. for seeing the impact bank-specific factors had with npl on albanian banks for period 20022012 (ali and eva,2015) undertook a study. the result revealed exchange rate and loan growth had positive relationship with bank performance and gdp, interest rate had negative relationship with bank performance. study was conducted to find out the relationship of npl with other factors for period 20082014 in malawian banks by (chimkono, muturi &njeru,2016).the result opined that npl ratio, cost efficiency ratio, average lending interest rate had significant existence with bank performance. to explore how nonperforming loan effect nigerian banks performance a study had been conducted for period 1994 to 2014 by (etale. l,ayunku & etale. e, 2016). descriptive statistics, unit root test, correlation, regression analysis were conducted by researchers. the results found negative association of npl with roce which meant increase in npl cause decrease in firm performance. similar type of study on the nigerian bank for period of 2000 to 2013 was done by (ozurumba,2016). the results found negative relationship between roa and roe with npl.the study opined that this negative relationship was an indicator of danger for sustainability of banks. to find out the effect of npl with net interest on the stock exchange of bangladesh for the period 2008 to 2013(akter & roy,2017) conducted research. the research found significant relationship of npl with net interest margin of banks. further research were done to find the relationship between npl and profitability of ethiopian banks by (balango and rao,2017).the study revealed that npl was negatively associated with profitability . study on kenyan banks with respect to bank performance (roa and roe) and npl were undertaken by (chege and bichanga,2017) for period 2011 to 2015.the study found that nonperforming loan, size of the bank, operating cost and liquidity were significantly associated with bank performance (roa) and capitalization was insignificantly related with bank performance (roa). for exploring how profitability is related with ghana banks (baasi,2018) conducted research for period (2006-2015). the result revealed that npl had negative relation with roe, on the other hand car had positive relation with roe. hypothesis of the study: for the study hypothesis are developed by studying research papers . a study is done on the effect of non -performing loan on the profitability of ethiopian banks by (balango and rao 2017) took non-performing loan ratio as a hypothesis. therefore the first hypothesis of the study is: ho1: there is no relationship between npi with islamic banks performance. ha1: there is relationship between npi with islamic banks performance. bank size is used as an indicator to find out the effect it has with npi. a study made by (chege and bichanga, 2017) studying non-performing loan and financial performance of kenyian commercial banks considered bank size is an indicator. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 1-84 the second hypothesis of the study is: ho2: there is no relationship between size of the bank with islamic banks performance. ha2: there is relationship between size of the bank and islamic banks performance. capital adequacy ratio have been used as an indicator to measure the effect of nonperforming loan on ethiopian banks by (balanco and rao,2017) . the third hypothesis of the study is: ho3: there is no relationship between car with islamic banks performance. ha3: there is relationship between car with islamic banks performance. 3. research method the study uses simple random sampling. simple random sampling is used because it gives the chance of every sample being selected. there are eight islamic banks in bangladesh. samples of six islamic banks are being taken for research. the study used secondary data which is collected from annual reports of six islamic banks from 2012 to 2016. 2012 to 2016 period is used because non performing investment during this period have become an area of concern of banks as it has increased to a great level. thirty annul reports of six islamic banks for year 2012 to 2016 are being used for the study. variables used in the study: dependent variable: bank performance (roa and roe). independent variable: size of bank, npi and car. software used to perform tests: ibm spss 20 software is used to do descriptive statistics, correlation analysis and regression analysis. model development: for the study econometric model is used. the model is as follows: y = a +β 1 x 1 + β 2 x2 + β 3 x 3 + € here y= bank performance(roa and roe) a = constant β 1β 3= regression coefficient of independent variables. table 1. variables and their proxies variable

business and economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 1-8 5 table 2. five-year ratio analysis of roa, roe, bank size, npi, and car year roa roe bank size npi ratio car 2012 1.48 14.28 5.23 3.8 11.69 2013

asset: the return on asset can be computed by taking net profit with respect to total asset of banks. roa shows the profitability of banks. in 2012, roa was 1.48%.roa continued to decrease till 2015.in 2016, roa increased to 1.08% .it indicates the good revenue generation of islamic banks to fulfill short-term obligations. return on equity: roe is is found by dividing net income to total equity. the more the roe the better return is for the shareholders investment. in 2012, roe was 14.28% which decreased in 2013 to 11.79%. in 2014 and 2015 roe declined. in 2016, it increased slightly. this indicted external source of funds require higher cost and it decreases profitability for islamic banks . bank size: bank size is calculated by taking the logarithm of total assets. the size of islamic banks were 5.48% in 2016 and it gradually increased from 2012 to 2016. non-performing investment ratio: non-performing investment ratio is calculated by dividing the non-performing investment to total investments.high ratio results in large amount of bad debts which is loss for the banks. islamic banks had the low ratio of npi in 2012. the highest figure of the npi ratio was in 2016. capital adequacy ratio: car shows how bank assets (loans, investments, securities) have been financed by using capital of the banks. it is described as a percentage of a bank’s riskweighted credit exposures. car ensures safety of depositors money as well as financial soundness of banks. capital adequacy ratio of islamic bank increased from11.69% to 12.77% in 2015. in 2016 it decreased to 11.89% which meant the slowdown of islamic banks capital. it shows that capital cannot be used to cover up due dates and risks will be faced by banks in upcoming days. 4.2 descriptive statistics table 3.

highest value is termed as maximum value and lowest value is termed as minimum value. mean represents average value of all observations which is found by dividing all the number of observations. standard deviation measures the risk involved . standard deviation of all variables is low. it can be concluded that less risk involved. international journal of islamic business and economics

from table -4, correlation analysis of independent variable with dependent variable can be found. independent variables bank size, npi, car are negatively related with dependent variable roa and roe. negative association between bank performance and npl also found by (etale. l, ayunku & etale. e, 2016), (ozurumba,2016) and (balango and rao,2017). negative correlation opines an increase in the independent variable causes dependent variable to decrease and vice versa. it is seen that bank size, npi, car will reduce as a result of the increase in roa and roe and increase as a result of the decrease in roa and roe. 4.4 regression analysis table 5. regression analysis based on roa model summary model r r square adjusted r square std. error of the estimate change statistics durbin watson r

dependent and independent variables are associated. in case of roa and roe, the value is .995 and .990. the value close to 1 means the bank performance (roa and roe) are positively related with size of the bank, npi, car. r square shows the variation of the independent variable concerning the dependent variable. the value of r square is .990 regarding roa and .981 regarding roe. the result suggests that dependent variable roa and roe can explain 99% and 98.1 % of the independent variables (bank size, npi and car). adjusted r square shows how close the international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 3(1) june 2019, 1-8 7 data fits the line of regression. the respective adjusted r square values are .962 in case of roa and .924 in case of roe.so 96.2% and 92.4% of data fits the regression line. durbin watson statistics give an idea about the consistency of time series data. the standard value is 0 to 4. dw value in case of both roa and roe is 2.599.the value above two opines that data series are consistent and there is no autocorrelation involved. p value in both cases of roa and roe is greater than 0.05 which rejects the alternative hypothesis and indication of no relationship between islamic bank performance with npi. similiar type of result is also found by (adebisi and benjamin,2015) on their conducted research on impact of npl in terms of profitability of nigerian banks. 5. conclusion the study explore how non performing investment effect islamic banks performance. negative effect of non performing investment with islamic banks performance are found in terms of correlation analysis. in regression analysis no effect is found between non performing investment and banks performance. the research creates a scope for researchers to identify the reasons of negative effect of non performing investment with bank performance when correlation analysis is used and also the reason of not finding any effect of non performing investment with bank performance when regression analysis is used with recommendations. references adebisi, j.f.&benjamin, o.

non-performing financing; micro waqf bank doi: 10.28918/ijibec.v6i1.4361 jel: l31, g23, g41 article info article history: received : 16 september 2021 accepted : 14 may 2022 published : 1 june 2022 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 26-36 27 1. introduction the indonesian government has made various efforts to reduce poverty; the most recent is establishing a bank wakaf mikro hereinafter abbreviated as bwm (ojk, 2018). the establishment of bwm is to empower the poor by providing assistance and providing microfinance for productive activities. the source of financing from bmw is profit sharing from sharia deposits, profit sharing from financing, and other income (ojk, 2018). in its implementation, bwm cooperates with islamic boarding schools as the frontline. the financial services authority cooperates with islamic boarding schools in implementing the bwm program because of the great potential of islamic boarding schools in community empowerment. this potential can be seen from the number of islamic boarding schools that have reached 28.194 (ojk, 2018). apart from the large number, the function of islamic boarding schools is not only to carry out education but also to have the function of community empowerment (uu no. 18 tahun 2019). this empowerment function is a manifestation of islamic teachings, especially in helping each other in goodness (muhtifah et al., 2015). in order to realize this function, the pesantren also offers nonreligious lessons, such as agricultural skills, vehicle repair, and other activities (tan, 2014). as of september 2019, bmw in indonesia reached 53 units, and 12 of them were in central java province (ojk, 2019b) including in magelang regency. in order to support its business processes, bwm received an allocation of rp.4,000,000,000. the funds are then divided into two, with a composition of rp.1,000,000,000 distributed to the community and rp3,000,000,000 into endowments deposited in islamic banks. in general, the business scheme of bwm can be seen in figure 1: source: financial services authority (2018) figure 1. scheme of bank wakaf mikro the presence of bwm is expected to overcome poverty so that it can realize community welfare, especially for small communities. bwm was established to provide access to finance for small communities that have had difficulty accessing capital in the formal sector (ojk, 2019a). with this access to capital, it is hoped that the presence of bwm can at least reduce poverty and improve people's welfare. study conducted by zayanie et al., 28 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 26-36 (2019) proves that the presence of bwm is beneficial for the community in accessing microscale financing. the presence of bwm also has a positive impact on increasing people's income (yeubun et al., 2021). compared to other microfinance institutions, bwm is unique in providing its financing. the uniqueness is that the distribution of financing is tanggung renteng (rozalinda & nurhasnah, 2020) which in this study is called joint liability. joint liability is basically one of the many ways to avoid problems that arise in the distribution of financing. small communities, in general, do not have access to financing because they do not have collateral and do not have adequate financial records (ghatak & guinnane, 1999). by means of joint liability, even people who do not have collateral can obtain financing. the distribution of joint liability financing has two advantages when compared to the distribution of individual financing. the first advantage is that group members may know more about other members (i.e., each other's types, actions, and status) than other people. the second sanctions given to members who are unable to pay are the responsibility of fellow group members (ghatak & guinnane, 1999). joint liability is the highest embodiment of trust and a sense of loyalty among members of the group. the benefits of the joint responsibility system are to strengthen group cohesiveness and trust from outsiders to members. the implementation of joint liability models requires strong social control; therefore, this system will work effectively if applied in a group with a unifying bond and strong ties of interest (saripudin, 2013). the research results conducted by srivastava and samanta (2015) prove that the application of joint liability financing can increase trust and solidarity. furthermore kumar (2012) states that joint liability has its own uniqueness and is different from others. bwm has provided assistance to the community's economic empowerment through the provision of training for prospective customers. in practice, the financing of financing by bwm begins with the formation of groups, and this is the main condition for obtaining financing (rozalinda & nurhasnah, 2020). prospective customers must create a group called kelompok usaha masyarakat in the vicinity of the islamic boarding schools hereinafter referred to as kumpi before applying for financing. the minimum number in one kumpi is 5 people. it doesn't stop there; every kumpi is required to hold a weekly meeting called halaqoh mingguan hereinafter referred to as halmi. halmi activities are in the form of weekly installment payments and also the delivery of materials such as religious studies, business development, and others (ojk, 2018). the joint liability financing model is a group financing distribution system in which all group members are responsible if one of the group members is unable to pay (attanasio et al., 2015). this mechanism basically benefits financiers because of the low risk of nonperforming financing. this is because if one member is unable to pay, the other members are also responsible for making payments. thus, joint liability can avoid problematic financing because the selection stage for group members is carried out strictly so that each group will get credible and trustworthy members. the results of research conducted by ghatak & guinnane (1999) show that joint liability models allow for better repayment rates than individual loans. likewise, the research conducted by bayer & shatragom (2013) which states that the shared responsibility model can increase payback. this is because the shared responsibility model in financing will increase trust and solidarity (srivastava & samanta, 2015). research related to joint liability-based financing to prevent non-performing financing in micro waqf banks is important to do because research with this theme is still little done. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 26-36 29 the majority of studies on bwm are related to the impact of bwm on the economy, as research conducted by zayanie et al., (2019) yeubun et al., (2021), dewanti et al., (2021) and apriliawan et al., (2021). thus, research on the extent to which the application of joint liability-based financing in preventing the occurrence of non-performing financing is important to do. 2. method the research approach used in this study is quantitative. quantitative research is quantitative research which is in the process of analyzing data using numbers and analyzed using statistical methods (apuke, 2017). meanwhile, williams (2007) provides an understanding that quantitative research involves collecting data so that information can be quantified and analyzed using statistics to support or refute alternative hypotheses. in quantitative research, research activities begin with a statement of the problem, determine hypotheses or research questions, review related literature, and conduct analysis. the method used in this research is a survey method. survey research uses a scientific sampling method with a questionnaire designed to measure the characteristics of a particular population through the use of statistical methods (sukamolson, 2007). basically, survey research is used to describe quantitatively the population and then study the relationship. in the survey research method, data is obtained from the research sample which is part of the population. from the sample, it is then used to generalize the entire population (apuke, 2017). the population in this study were all members of kumpi at bwm in magelang regency, amounting to 219. due to the small size of this population, in this study, all sampel numbers were used as research samples. in the structural equation modelling (sem) analysis, the number of samples required is relatively large (santoso, 2011). conceptually, sem analysis requires at least 100-200 samples (kusnendi, 2005); thus, the number of samples of 219 is considered adequate. joint liability variables in this study were measured using indicators compiled by kritikos & vigenina (2005) which consists of 1) group quality, 3) informasi, 4) monitoring, 5) peer control, 6) peer pressure dan 7) peer support. meanwhile, non-performing financing in this study was measured by the indicators presented by angaine & waari (2014) which consists of 1) complete non repayment. 2) late payment. 3) payament after intervension measures the research questionnaire was prepared according to the indicators mentioned in the operational definition of the variables. the research questionnaire will be measured using a likert scale with five answer options, namely "strongly agree" with a value of 1, agree with a value of "2", neutral with a value of "3", disagree with a value of " 4" strongly disagree with a value of "5". data analysis in this study used structural equation modelling (sem). sem is a statistical model used to perform multivariate data analysis and involves complex variables (hoyle, 1995). sem has advantages compared to traditional regression models because it can test hypotheses about the relationship between observed variables (carvalho & chimma, 2014). to analyse the research data, the pls structural equation model (sem) analysis was used with the help of smart pls 3 software. using pls-sem in this study was that it was easy to use and could overcome abnormal research data (henseler et al., 2009). before testing the hypothesis using sem pls analysis, it is necessary to test the quality of the research data. the quality of research data must meet the criteria of validity and reliability. in sem pls, there are two data validity tests, namely convergent validity and 30 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 26-36 discriminant validity tests (hair et al., 2011; purwanto, 2021). an indicator can meet the criteria for convergent validity if it has a composite reliability value and a factor loading value greater than 0.7 and has an ave average variance extract value greater than 0.5 (hair et al., 2011). meanwhile, the test results of the discriminant validity criteria can be seen from the cross-loading value and the fornell-larcker criteria. fornell-larcker must be a correlation between variables with the square of ave. the correlation of each variable with ave must be more than the correlation of other variables (chawla & joshi, 2018). the cross-loading criteria can be met if each indicator has a higher value when compared to indicators on other variables. meanwhile, the validity test was carried out by looking at the cronbach value. data is said to be reliable if it has cronbach greater than 0.7 (lin & huang, 2008). 3. result and discussion profile of respondents the planned sample in this study was 219, but up to the data collection limit, only 215 data were collected. detailed information concerning the profile of respondents is shown in table 1. table 1. profile of respondents variables category n percent sex male 0 0 female 215 100 status in family head of family 0 0 housewife 215 100 family members 0 0 age < 20 years 0 0 20-30 years old 2 0.93 30-40 years old 43 20.00 40-50 years old 135 62.79 50-60 years old 35 16.28 > 60 years 0 0 the last education level elementary school 98 45.58 junior high school 90 41.86 senior high school 12 5.58 other 15 6.98 business fields farmer 65 30.23 services 30 13.95 culinary 115 53.49 other 5 2.33 income range npf 0.055 0.458 8.338**(> 2.58) 0.000 accepted notes: *t-value > 1.65 (significance level 10 percent) ** t-value > 1.96 (significance level 5 percent) ***t-value > 2.58 (significance level 1 percent) used bootstrapping to assess the path coefficients’ significance. the minimum number of bootstrap samples is 5,000, and the number of cases should be equal to the number of observations in the original sample. the critical t-value for the two-tailed test obtained a result of 8.338 which means it is greater than 2.58. thus, it can be concluded that the research hypothesis states that joint liability-based financing has a significant effect on the prevention of funding non-performing. this result is confirmed by the results of hypothesis testing as shown in table 5 where joint liability-based financing (jl) has a significant positive effect on the prevention of non-performing financing (pnpl) (β = 0.458, t = 8.100 (> 2.58), supporting the hypothesis. the final result of this research is described, as shown in figure 2. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 26-36 33 *** notes: *t-value > 1.65 (significance level 10 percent) ** t-value > 1.96 (significance level 5 percent) ***t-value > 2.58 (significance level 1 percent) figure 2. final structural model the results of the study prove that joint liability-based financing has a significant effect on preventing non-performing financing. this means that joint liability based in the distribution of fund financing by bwm can prevent defaults or non-performing financing. the results of this study are certainly in line with research conducted by ghatak & guinnane (1999), this shows that the joint liability model is more likely to allow better repayment rates than individual loans. this study also supports the results of research from bayer & shatragom (2013) which states that the shared responsibility model can increase the payback. this research is also in line with the study conducted by chen et al. (2016); zainab et al. (2020) azizah & islamiyah (2021), which prove that non-performing financing has a real impact on the emergence of financing. furthermore, this research is also in line with the study conducted by che (2002), which also proves that the features of joint obligations related to credit can reduce the risk of default. the results of this study have reaffirmed that joint liability-based financing is one of the best ways to deal with non-performing financing. many financial institutions prevent problem financing by implementing a guarantee system, but low-income people do not own guarantees. therefore, the joint liability-based financing implemented by the bank wakaf mikro in magelang regency is empirically able to prevent the occurrence of non-performing financing. joint liability models in financing distribution are basically an attempt by financial institutions to select prospective customers (kumar, 2012). joint liability models require prospective customers to form groups so that in the selection of group members, prospective customers will choose prospective group members who have integrity. therefore, joint liability models basically make it easier for financial institutions to mitigate the problem of selecting prospective customers who are less credible, so that the risk of problematic financing can be avoided. with the strength of social relations, each group member will automatically choose prospective members who have integrity and can be trusted. joint liability models in the distribution of financing in magelang regency run effectively according to the target because they are in groups that support each other and have a sense of kinship and cohesiveness for strong interests. in practice, in distributing micro waqf bank financing, each group has explained that all group members will be 34 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 26-36 affected if one of them defaults. like, i will not get a chance to become a customer again. with this application, all group members automatically supervise all group members. it is not uncommon for group members to help each other settle payments if one of the group members has difficulty paying installments one day. implementing the joint liability models method in the distribution of financing to bank wakaf mikro can prevent the risk of default because there are good and strong social controls in the joint liability models. 4. conclusion the results of the study prove that joint liability-based financing has a significant effect on preventing non-performing financing. this means that joint liability based in the distribution of fund financing by bank wakaf mikro can prevent defaults or non-performing financing. problem financing in joint liability-based financing can be prevented because of the necessity of forming a group when applying for financing, so that prospective customers will choose group members who have integrity and can be trusted. based on the results of this study, it can be said that joint liability based on the distribution of financing funds by bank wakaf mikro is the best way to distribute financing, because it can prevent the emergence of non-performing financing. the joint liability based applied by the bank wakaf mikro in magelang regency can be a model in the distribution of funds sourced from zakat, cash waqf and other social funds. this research contributes to overcoming problematic financing caused by information asymmetry. information asymmetry in financing distribution arises because the customer has more information than the financier. the customer has an interest so that the proposed financing can be approved so that the customer is encouraged to provide inaccurate information. in this context, research results that have contributed to financing prevention are problematic because of information asymmetry. in short, financing with a joint responsibility system is one way to overcome the problem of information asymmetry in the distribution of financing. references angaine, f., & waari, d. n.

indonesia. this research used a descriptive-qualitative approach with content analytical, library research and critical study method. this research found some critical points on islamic economic and financial practices in indonesia: (i) the islamic banking in indonesia showed inconsistencies and partial implementations; (ii) the islamic economic practices were not too far from the surrounding financial sectors (iii) the islamic financial practices in indonesia mostly focused on the islamic commercial finance (icf) sector and less concerned on the islamic social finance (isf); (iv) sharia financial institutions were more precisely than those called ”bank syariah” (v) the epistemological problems in the islamic economic curriculum needed to be answered and resolved to avoid the contra-productive outputs from the fundamental purposes. it was necessary to conduct the re-orientation of sharia banking to strengthen its vision. all involving parties should be able to collaborate with academicians, practitioners, governments, scholars, and organizations. those parties’ reorientation and synergy shall solve the problems related to the partial implementation of banking and answer all criticisms directed to the sharia banking. international journal of islamic business and economics available at http://e-journal.iainpekalongan.ac.id/index.php/ijibec issn 2599-3216 e-issn

economic or financial aspect. as the result, we can see islamic economics and finance has been revivaled, fostering trade and business interaction model phenomenon. shariah-based economic institutions then born and encourage “interest-free” or “islamic” banking in the national economics system. islamic banking refers to a system of banking that is consistent, both in objectives and in operations with islamic laws (baele, farooq and ongena, 2014). worldwide, islamic banking is as an emerging and growing system (ebrahim and joo, 2001). swift growth in this field has also enhanced the need for designing consistent policies for islamic banks (archer, karim and sundarajan, 2010). theoretically, islamic bank operations are premised on equity based financing which is an alternative to debt based financing (mallin, farag, and ow-yong, 2014). these operations include mudharabah (trust financing), mushārakah (equity financing), ijārah (lease financing), qarḍ al-ḥasan (welfare loan), and istiṣnā‘ (progressive payments) (samad, gardner and cook, 2005). in reality, the islamic bank practices and products resemble that of conventional banks (tafri, rahman and omar, 2011). for this reason, existing islamic banking can be referred to as hybrid banking (mix of islamic and conventional banks) instead of islamic (siddiqui, 2008). from 1988, islamic finance has been facing numerous issues such as unavailability of common accounting standard, lack of central control body, density of regulation, absence of money and capital market, tough market competition and clash in sharīah scholars’ views. islamic banks have no separate regulatory framework and they seek regulatory support from regulations of conventional banks in their operations (abdullah, shahimi and ismail, 2011). currently, the only distinguishing criteria of islamic banking from conventional banking is just “prohibition of interest,” which is insufficient. if islamic banking restricts itself to just prohibition of ribā then what will be the difference between islam and other religions such as judaism and christianity as ribā is also prohibited in these religions (zaman and movassaghi, 2002). in reality the islamic financial system provides basic axioms which put forward an ethical system founded on the philosophical founts of islam (asutay, 2007). islamic banking emerged as an alternative to conventional banking with profit maximization at its heart (imam and kpodar, 2010). decades have passed, unfortunately islamic banking failed to fulfill its promise to deliver social and economic advantage to the muslim world through profit and loss sharing (pls) modes of financing (warde, 2010). islamic banks that claim to be sharīah based not only fail to offer pure sharī‘ah based financial products; they also attempt to make conventional products sharī‘ah compliant using islamic rulings (fatwā) (khan, 2010). islamic banks also failed to design an appropriate regulatory framework to serve their businesses through legitimate enforcement of profit and loss sharing instruments (kayed, 2012). as a country with the largest muslim population in the world, indonesia has not been able to play an optimal role in fulfilling this demand. in the global islamic economy index 2018/2019, indonesia is ranked 10th in the world as a producer of halal products. although indonesia’s export performance in muslim fashion products, halal food, and halal tourism continues to increase from year to year, but in aggregate, indonesia has a large net import for halal products and services which results in a deficit in the current account. furthermore, the national shariah finance committee (knks) indonesia assessed shariah financial international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 81-94 83 industry in indonesia is still on the road. this proven by the latest financial services authority (ojk) data that mentions the market share of new sharia finance reached only 8.69 % of the total national financial market. shariah banking market share recorded only 5.94 percent and the rest is 2.75 % by non-banking sharia market share (see https://www.cnnindonesia.com/ekonomi/20190911034328-78-429312/knks-sebutpertumbuhan-pangsa-pasar-keuangan-syariah-stagnan). compared to its muslim neighbor country, malaysia. shariah finance industry in the country grab almost 20 % of the national market share. moreover, the implementation of shariah banking in indonesia still omits some fairly fundamental problems that reap criticism by a lot of muslim scholars such as syu'aibun, (2014); rusydi, (2016); ananta, (2019); and candrakusuma, (2018). among the criticism are that banking products not shariah compliants, riba, maysir and gharar elements still found, and disoriented purpose of shariah economics implementation in the banking system. surely, every effort and contribution to this industrial development should be appreciated and grateful. islamic banking for example is no longer confined to muslim countries, as even the biggest western banks now offer products compliant with the islamic law. however as a human-created product, weakness of the system always brings gaps and deficiencies that should be considered and repaired. the critical concern to this issues is necessary and aimed to repair continuesly an existing laws and errors. since it is proper if every component of muslims always contribute constructively in the struggle of applying the shariah in all aspects of life, no exception to the economic and financial aspects of the people. islamic economy in indonesia is in its critical stage as it is in the midst of global economy uncertainty and it is competing against its rival regional economies. roles and contribution of the islamic economy towards the national economy is not yet significant for it to be labelled as an important pillar in helping indonesia with the world’s economy that has become more vulnerable, uncertain, complex and ambiguous. however, even the minimum contribution of islamic economy does not illustrate the potentials of islamic economy, which is strategically beneficial for indonesia’s current and future economy. the minimal role of islamic economy is due to the development of various sectors in the islamic economy ecosystem, which are not optimal. the coverage and development of the islamic economy, which is still leaning towards the financial sector is also an obstacle. the presence of various government regulations regarding the implementation of shariah economics in indonesia, such as law no. 10-1998, act no. 38-1999 on zakat management and supreme court decree no. 581 of the management of zakat, implies a message of importance and assertive that study of islamic economic and finance system became an urgent thing to be lifted always, because it has been widely protected and implemented by law it self. the need for such studies in order to provide reinforcement to the industry and to clarify that the economic system not deviated from its normative rules and shariah principles (iskandar and aqbar, 2019). departing from the inquiries above, this study intends to contribute through a critical and constructive review of the phenomenon to enhance the implementation of islamic economic and financial practices. there are some of the islamic economic and finance industry development facts that has been running in the community according to this study might be as reasons that makes the industry stagnant. paradigms, concepts and normative approaches of islamic economics in the midst of the people, has brought too rational and profit oriented system. therefore, this research is conducted to highlight the criticism to 84 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 81-94 industrial system, not in term of its value concept of economic, but more on the reality of implemantion in our society as far as the study observations. research related critical studies on the paradigm of implementing islamic economics, has not been much enthusiastics. eventhough some scholars such as kuran (esp. 1995, 1996) criticised the economic foundations of islamic economics, aggarwal & yousef (2000) gathered some empirical evidence to show that islamic banking falls behind expectations. proponents of islamic banking acknowledged some of the critiques, but the academic debate based on empirical research has gone silent in the last ten years. previous studies in indonesia such as done by rahmawaty (2007), sulaiman (2014), and syu'aibun (2014) only saw and criticize one of the akad in the implementation of islamic economics with narrower scope, since did not see it from a more fundamental point of view. islamic economics deals with a paradigm that links the responsibility concept of resource allocation and income distribution, in addition to the maximisation of utility by consumers and profit by businesses and taking into account the property rights of every members of the society in a way that maximises social welfare, based on rules set out in the quran and the teaching of prophet mohammad (cole, soufani, & tse, 2013). the islamic law covers a comprehensive range regulation related to religious, social, economic and financial affairs and the governance of the financial dealings with groups and individuals in an islamic society. the application of such system is the solution by those who believe that unjust distribution of income, unemployment, poverty and environmental problems has been gone far today. such system also supposed to promote the concept of corporate social responsibility as argued by iqbal and mirakhor (2007) that islamic paradigm “incorporate a spiritual and moral framework on human relations above material possessions”, and that it is important to recognize that the betterment of the society is achieved through a sense of social and material responsibility to the whole without the denial of individual self-interest. the financial services industry was largely affected by the global financial crisis of 2008, in which the sluggish growth in this sector was mainly due to the loss of confidence by depositors and borrowers to the financial liquidity for corporate investment projects. the overall economic slowdown that impacted the growth have affected also supply and demand chains in the global financial market. however, behind the financial crisis there have been a fascinating increased to islamic finance and banking industry globally. in terms of scope the conventional finance covers corporate finance, investments, financial institutions, derivatives and international finance, which related the financial management decisions, how to make an investment, debt or equity based capital gain, cash flow and rates of returns, economically and financially. on other side, islamic finance decisions related to an asset investment and prohibited object of transactions in businesses such as alcohol, pork products, firearms, tobacco, adult entertainment and the gambling industry (jobst, 2007). with regard to the raising of finance, the parties involved in financial transaction are forbidden any form of dealings that involved money exchange for debt without an underlying asset transfer. any cash flows have to be produced by sharia-compliant sources. in addition, the working of financial institutions such as islamic banks, takaful (islamic insurance) companies, islamic investment banks and islamic private equity firms are prohibited from being involved in speculative activities. these activities involve preventable uncertainty (gharar) such as: financial derivatives instruments, forwarding contracts and future agreements (jobst, 2007). international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 81-94 85 the main essence of islamic contract is the absence of interest in the overall agreement. promising interest and any fixed rate of return to an investor (predetermined ex ante), regardless of the financial performance of the asset is not permissible ( see iqbal and llewellyn, 2000; iqbal and tsubota, 2006; iqbal and mirakhor, 2007). islamic finance encourages a financial structure without interest, where the transaction between the borrower and lender has to be based on shared business risk and returns. any capital based investment that does not involve entrepreneurial risk would not considered as islamic principles compliant. . in this sense, the basic proposition of islamic finance is that return on capital would be determined ex post and not ex ante, and size of return is a function of the economic activity in which the funds were employed. in an islamic financial system, the provision of capital should be linked to the productive flow in the economy, in which the size of debt claims should not be greater than the value of production, hence the capital structure should be based more on equity rather than debt for firms and financial institutions otherwise ‘debt bubbles’ would develop (cole, soufani, & tse, 2013). 2. literature reviews several previous studies have been discussed critical reviews of various islamic economic and finance practices at the level of concepts, paradigms and practices. among the studies are shaikh (2013) analyzed the islamic banking philosophy, principles and practices and identifies the shortcomings which need attention of islamic scholars as well as the regulators in pakistan. islamic banking in pakistan has completed one decade of operations in pakistan and now there are 5 full-fledged islamic banks and more than 15 conventional banks with islamic banking windows. due to the consistent double digit growth in total assets, the market share had steadily risen to 7% by the end of 2011. however, meaningful assessment of islamic banking requires looking at how far they have contributed to uphold islamic principles, values and bringing about or at least working towards equitable distribution of income. but, islamic banking industry continues to use debt based financing modes which are priced using kibor as the benchmark. equivalence of means test confirms that islamic banking spreads are higher than conventional interest rate spreads. sulaiman (2014) critics that shariah banking in indonesia has ran a lot of murabahah financing system or products compared to mudharabah (profit sharing) that became the initial spirit of its founding as an alternative to conventional banking based on interest. but unfortunately, on his journey, the use of the murabahah is a lot of legal irregularities or not really shariah compliant in the context money investment, that is deviation in the contract as well as on the placement of funds. laldin & furqani (2016) also saw the need for shariah banking re-attention to the islamic banking philosophy and fundamental principles. ascarya (2017, 2018) mentioned that the islamic economy in indonesia is currently focused on the islamic commercial finance (icf) sector, especially banking, and less concerned with the development of the real sector, even though the real economic practices of islam include the financial sector and real sector, combine commercial and social side. ahmed, i., akhtar, m., & aziz, s. (2017) critically evaluate the practices of islamic banks in the light of islamic ethical values and philosophy of accountability to allah and society. the study found that islamic banks defend their practices by taking islamic rulings from shariah advisors in order to make their product to be more shariah compliant. profit maximization, availability of a vast range of islamic rulings, market competition, lack of 86 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 81-94 adequate risk management tools and trust on islamic banking and meeting the general public expectations caused islamic banks to comply with debt base modes of financing. the study basically is an additional value in our literature of islamic finance which suggests what it ought to be. from there, we can see also the role of the organization of islamic countries (oic) and the governments of islamic countries. ananta (2019) in her research suggests that from what had been implemented by shariah banks in products and process,in this time and compared to the compilation of the fatwa of national shariah board and salaf scholars jurisprudence, we can conclude that the number of irregularities concepts in shariah banking commonly rooted to the mudharabah contract. in these irregularities, shariah banks are committing to shariah violations that can be dragged on ribawi transactions. this should not be left insoluble, because what is done in this thing may called as shariah engineering product. based on our literature reviews above, this study proposes a conceptual framework to redevelop our islamic economic framework practicess as follow: figure 1. conceptual framework source: iskandar and aqbar (2019); candrakusuma (2019); ascarya (2018); ahmed, akhtar, ahmed, i., & aziz, s. (2017); ascarya (2017); badri (2016); laldin & furqani (2016); and shaikh (2013) (modified by author) 3. research method this research uses descriptive-qualitative approach with content analysis techniques and library research to understand various concepts found in the research process. qualitative content analysis is one of the several qualitative methods for analyzing data and interpreting its meaning (schreier, 2012). as a research method, it represents a systematic and objective means of describing and quantifying phenomena (downe-wamboldt, 1992; schreier, 2012). for the prerequisite and successful content analysis, the data of this study reduced to describe the research phenomenon (cavanagh, 1997; elo & kyngäs, 2008; hsieh & shannon, 2005) by creating categories, concepts, a model, conceptual system, or conceptual map (elo & kyngäs, 2008; morgan, 1993; weber, 1990). the research also uses a critical method to reveals and analyses social reality by ensuing an inequality of existing social relations. critical research is sustained by critical theory international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 81-94 87 perspective with its constructed assumptions (halik, 2018). further critical research approaches are oriented towards problem-solving and social change (hanurawan, 2010). finally, the research library in this research uses the types and sources of secondary data obtained from research results, articles and reference books that discusses topics related to the theme of the research (iskandar & aqbar, 2019). 4. result 4.1. shariah bank industry: a heartless shariah implementation as time goes by, shariah banking practices are currently began more doubted, questioned, and conceived by some communities (candrakusuma, 2018). this is because the products, transactions and banking mechanisms are, considered to deviate from the sharia corridor itself. some people think that shariah banks have less sensitivity to social issues. some have assumed that shariah banking is merely a camouflage, from its capitalist origin to capitalize shariah banking (candrakusuma, 2018). such criticisms are of course indispensable to the advancement of shariah banking, as long as criticism is constructive and scientific, not because fear factor (islamophobia) and illogical assumptions. for example, the practice of mudharabah on shariah banks today tends to be collaborated with mutanaqisah contract because the capital is derived from two parties, shariah banks and customers. in terms of return sharing, financing is not based on profit and loss sharing but uses a system for revenue sharing. this contract mechanism is chosen by current islamic bank since the banks are not fully ready to bear loss sharing risk of the capital. thus, the proportion of profitable financing is more widely implemented, for example with murabahah contract where the profit definitely based on natural certainty contracts not based on natural uncertainty contracts like mudharabah. in this scheme, it is undeniable is islamic banks in profitable oriented business position. . another example, in the savings through the wadi’ah, banking tends to impose deposit funds to be used on the productive activities that the bank wants. in principle, in the wadi’ah contract, the utilization of deposit in any form of law is forbidden, the contract also changed to qard (hutang-piutang). the wadi’ah contract in islamic banking is not the wadi’ah as described in the fictional books. wadi’ah conctract which applied in islamic banking today is likely more similar to qard contract.and precisely refers to the wadi’ah yad al-dhamanah. from the this issues we can notice an inconsistency and principle shift of islamic banks as an outcome bank to be a profit oriented bank based on field survey, this study views that, the main problem of shariah implementation in the current banking is lies on commitment. shariah banking seems to have stopped at one stage and lost the vision of becoming the whole shariah banking. the implementation of shariah in islamic banking is heartless visible. reorientation need to be done to strengthen the vision of shariah banking. all parties and stakeholders such as academician, practitioners and government, should be able to cooperate, as well as the role of scholars and organizations. the reorientation and synergy of all parties will be able to solve the problem of shariah implementation in islamic banking and answer the embedded criticism in islamic banking. 4.2. islamic economics: does financial sector matters? uundoubtedlyy what theoretically has been understood, islamic economy is not only the financial sector, but also includes the real industry sector,therefore often referred as the islamic financial economy (ascarya, 2104), vis a vis to what we seen in the practice of islamic 88 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 81-94 economics in indonesia which is still dominated by the financial sectors. if we take a look further, we will find that financial sector will always depend on the real sectors. the various efforts poured will only come to a deadlock. when the financial sector not allowed to go directly to the real sector to produce halal profit according to law no. 10 of 1998, it means money is economic object not a major factor to run economic wheels. in islamic perspective, this is contraditc to the shariah which has layed down goods or services as object of the economy. subsequently assessed with money, and not money assessed with money. when the money used as a commercial object in transaction and trading tools , then riba, would be happen in various speculation and turmoil (badri, 2016). real sector is the main implementation focus in islamic economy, particularly those with the potential to increase economic growth nationally. more specifically, products and services. principally for those that are using halal labels to distinguish it from other products. in doing so, in contributing to the economy and strengthening indonesia’s balance of payments, the principle of islamic economic system upholds the values of justice and sustainability, which can bring the national economy to an inclusive, sustainable and robust growth against crisis. therefore, the halal value chain is one of the main strategy that includes several real key sectors of halal industry such as halal food and agriculture, modest fashion (muslim fashion industry), halal pharmaceutical and cosmetics, halal tourism and travel and halal recreation and media. this industrial development has an important role in supporting the implementation of national development. 4.3. islamic bank: between social and commercial oriented the next our critical point is focused on the issue between social and commercial oriented in the development of the islamic economy in indonesia especially in banking industry. the lack of attention to the development of real sector and islamic social finance (isf), makes the industry farther away from the community. our social community is backbone from where our financial should begin and end. we can not tolerate if the industry asset going fast then our community left behind. this is the distinction between conventional finance and islamic finance. one example for that is microfinance system. microfinance, as a tool of alleviation and empowerment of the poor (faqr or faqir, plural of fuqara’), is not really a new concept in islam, but it is part of islamic teachings. for example, islam lays out certain compulsory obligations (such as zakat) and voluntary obligations (such as infaq and waqf) on the individuals having substantial means for the poor members of the community (ascarya, rahmawati, tanjung, 2018). wealth in islam should not circulate among wealthy people only, but it has to be distributed to others, including the orphans, al-masakin (the needy) and the wayfarer (al qur’an surah al hashr [59]:7). in the wealth of people, there was the needy right1 . by using redistributive instruments from social funds, such as zakah, infaq and waqf, as well as risk sharing instruments from commercial funds, such as microfinance and micro takaful, islamic microfinance (imfi) not only includes financial inclusion to provide various islamic financial product and services needed by low income and poor groups of the society, but also provides more holistic framework to enhance financial inclusion, eradicate poverty, and a healthy economy by promoting microfinance, mse financing, and micro insurance (naceur, 2015), (mohieldin, 2012; iqbal and mirakhor, 2012 and 2013; iqbal, 2014). therefore, imfi includes social inclusion and financial inclusion as an integral concept of holistic financial inclusion (hfi). in indonesia, when islamic commercial finance is commonly offered by islamic banks 1 (al quran surah adz dzaariyat [51]:19 and al ma’aarij [70]:24-25) international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 81-94 89 and islamic rural banks, islamic social finance is served separately by zakah institutions and baitul maal wat tamwil (bmt) (see seibel (2005), obaidullah (2008) and ascarya (2014, 2016 and 2017). islamic microfinance institution (imfi) then developed and registered as an islamic cooperative, combining islamic social finance in its baitul maal division and islamic commercial finance in its baitut tamwil division (ascarya, 2018). in this case, when we talk about the actual economic practice of islam which is includes the financial sector and the real sector, or integrating commercial and social side, imfi more on the track than islamic banking industry (ascarya, 2017, 2018). 4.4. the meaningless of what called as ‘islamic or shariah bank it should be understood that the term shariah bank (not islamic bank) was used at the beginning, initially to consider islamic phobia. essentially, the bank's duties are based on legislation, including raising funds from the community, giving credit, delivering financing, providing storage and transferring money. but if we look at the prohibition imposed on banking, the bank should not run the real business outside the financial sector, then the naming of shariah or islamic banks becomes problematic. if the bank not allowed to do business or real businesses, through financing contract such as murabahah, mudarabah, salam, istisna', ijarah, and others, it means the bank does not comply with shariah laws. this is where the fallacy needs to be straightened. policies have to be taken and sharia banks should be upgraded to do real businesses. the point is that sharia finance institutions need more regulation to wider space to be able to stay in the financial sector and real sector simultaneously, according to the concept and spirit of the shariah economy itself. 4.5. islamic economics education: an epistemological problems in order to respond and addressing the encouraging islamic economic and financial development in indonesia, various financial or higher education institutions, then try to make a breakthrough by establishing new courses or department in islamic economics field, to prepare the intellectuals need of human resources, who are able to work professionally in various islamic financial institutions. however, the problems then arise when there are several universities or institutions in indonesia placing that course or islamic economics study program in different faculties. some higher education institutions partially placing the majors in sharia/law faculty, some others place them in the faculty of islamic economics and business. the grouping of islamic economics majors into shariah sciences subfields, such as the faculty of shariah (law) rising epistemological problems in the philosophy of science, since the economics and shariah (as the main reference of islamic economics) have different scope of scientific philosophy (iskandar and aqbar, 2019). this epistemological problem needs to be answered and resolved so that the output resulting from the education program is not counterproductive to its fundamental purposes. it should be understood that the scope of jurisprudence taught in the faculty of shariah(law) is more oriented towards the normative values than the implemented aspect. this means that the courses graduated are more in the theories of ttransactions based on islamic jurisprudence. while practices in industrial and market environments, more to financial engineering. not suprisingly if some researchers such as ardiansyah, et al., (2013); hadi, (2013); rozalinda, (2015); iskandar and aqbar, (2019) said that bbusinesses and industries are more likely need to human resources with practitioner qualifications. in fact, islamic economics discusses two disciplines simultaneously, purely science of economics and fiqh muamalah. the problem that arises is how to combine the liberal and 90 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 81-94 capitalist knowledge-based economics thought with the divine based jurisprudence thought meaning that the science of islamic economics is the unification of human thought and divine source; the qur'an and the hadith of the prophet. the difference in this source of knowledge is then the reason for the difference of assessment of human economic problems. for example, the liberal, capitalist, and communist economic system allow to satisfy the needs of human beings as the economic objectives. but conversely, jurisprudence is not really agree to to accept that objective, and need to validated by the qur'an and hadith. the economic sciences that developed in the western world are based on the freedom of the individual in conducting economic transactions. several western economic concepts need to be redefined in order to be adopted into the needs of shariah objective (maqashid shariah), such as the concept of wealth, concept of money, concept of capital, and others. based on the differences in the knowledge source and the theory of truth used, it is essentially problematic to combine the economics science with fiqh muamalah. the issue then acknowledged that the implementation of the islamic economic system in banking and insurance is almost identical with what is found in western economic systems. the islamic banking in practice remain to refers to many general economic models or systems. the fundamental epistemologyy differences between economic science and jurisprudence requires a collaborative principles that may combined as a new discipline. several actions should be taken in to account such as: first, redefinition of economics study. the subject matter in economics increased into the science of jurisprudence or reduced certain material that is considered irrelevant to shariah. the example for this case is a discussion on consumer behavior theory in microeconomics., the theory pointing the human activities relates to the search, selection, purchase, use, and evaluation of products and services to meet their needs and wishes. in this theory, the discussion in islamic economics perspective should be limited with shariah assumptions about the prohibition of non-halal commodities and services. secondly, redefinition of fiqh muamalah study in higher education institutions. the subject matter is increased by shariah legal analysis of various modern economic concepts such as time value of money, capital market instruments or transactions in the foreign exchange market. shariah judgements on such concepts is necessary to understand the fundamental origins and and its impact to the economy as a whole. these two customizations on our islamic economic study curriculum above, then bring us to the implications (iskandar and aqbar, 2019). first, if the economic sciences are redefined, then the products will be experiencing the definition anyway. for example, microeconomics products such as a regression in demand for general commodities will undergo redefinition by issuing an index of non shariah compliant goods. likewise, in macroeconomics, consumer price index used as a divider in the calculation of inflation is also changed by issuing the shariah non consumption commodity. due to this, there will be bias in some economic indicators. for example, inflation calculated according to the usual consumer price index will differ from the rate of inflation calculated by using shariah assumptions that have undergone redefinition. similarly, the prediction of unemployment, growth, national income or others. secomf, if the fiqh muamalah redefined, then it must be rewritten by adding a new economic concept which is not received yet a legal judgment on the classical jurisprudence. the redefinition of jurisprudence is the same meaning with the process of islamization of the sciences pioneered by ismail raji al-faruqi. islamization of international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 4(2) december 2020, 81-94 91 knowledge means restoring the function of revelation to be seated as if it is aligned with human sense and experience as a source of knowledge. one of the earliest experiments in this field is approach for unifying islamic sciences with social sciences). 5. conclusion as part of indonesian muslims awareness, back on the track of shariah is getting strong and rounded. however, the lack and weaknesses of existing systems, conducing gap and deficiency to be rectified and repaired, even leave our community development behind. in this study we have highlight some critical points that challenge indonesia's sharia economic industry to resolved together. all parties and stakeholders must take responsibilities on their own role. according to these responsibilities, we can reconstruc islamic economics and finance, and relevance of the embedded shariah can be carried out. the emergence of islamic economics and finance discipline would then be a distinctive one with endogenously embedded shariah rules and social basis. in the absence of realizing and actualizing its shariah based epistemic foundation, islamic economics and finance will continue to be a branch of mainstream economics spanned by the axiom of profit oriented, economic rationality and its decadent reasoning perspective. references abdullah, m., shahimi, s., ismail, a.g.

semarang kuatismanto79@gmail.com abstract the purpose of this paper is to analyze the contribution of local wisdom as a halal tourism attraction. this research is carried out with a qualitative research framework. primary research data is collected by qualitative research methods, namely through observation, interviews, and documentation. secondary data is obtained through the assessment of articles, books, research reports, documents, and other sources that are valid and support the theme of the research. observations are carried out in the region and tourist attractions, while interviews are conducted to the tourism office and the managers of tourist attractions, communities, and tourists. the collected data is analyzed descriptively and qualitatively. the results of this study show that pekalongan city has the prospect of becoming a halal tourism destination because it has fulfilled the components of halal tourism (attractions, access, amenities, communication, environment, supporting facilities, and celebration). on the other hand, the attractions and attractions owned by pekalongan city are interesting and diverse. pekalongan city has distinctive and unique local wisdom and can be an object and attraction of regional tourism. in addition, it is also supported by community security and creativity activities that support local wisdom as a tourism attraction. culture, islamic traditions, and local wisdom in pekalongan city have not been maximally packaged into tourist attractions. the implication of this study is that the packaging of local wisdom into a tourist attraction will contribute to the development of regional tourism. the abandonment of local wisdom as a regional tourism attraction will negate indonesia which is rich in cultural diversity as a differentiator with other countries in the field of halal tourism. international journal of islamic business and economics available at

muslim-majority and nonmuslim countries. indonesia is among the countries that have paid attention through the ministry of tourism of the republic of indonesia. a number of regions have also developed it such as aceh jaya (bupati aceh jaya, 2019), west sumatra (gubernur sumatera barat, 2020), bandung district (bupati kab. bandung, 2020), and lombok, west nusa tenggara (firdausi, et all., 2017), and others. however, a number of other regions in indonesia also have potential, feasibility, and prospects such as solo (saeroji, et al., 2018), banjarmasin (budiman, et al., 2019), cirebon regency (ropiah, 2018), and other areas. in 2019, central java province has obtained the flagship halal tourism award version of the indonesian muslim travel index (imti) of the ministry of tourism of the republic of indonesia as a leading tourist destination (disporapor jateng, 2019). so, the concept of halal tourism has spread in the province of central java. halal tourism is a tourism concept whose implementation applies islamic teachings. this islamic teaching is implemented in tourism components such as attractions, access, amenities, communication, environment, and empowerment (ismanto, 2022). in particular, in tourist destinations there are halal food, mosques (places of worship), which basically meet the needs of muslim tourists (vargas-sánchez & moral-moral, 2018). although this concept is derived from islamic teachings, but this tourism concept is not exclusive to muslim tourists alone, but also for non-muslim tourists as well. in essence, with the concept of halal tourism, the expansion of services (extended services) for muslim tourists is obtained so that satisfaction of visits is obtained. the purpose of tourism development in the region is to realize regional prosperity such as employment, economic impact, regional income, and others (mardianis & syartika, 2018). conceptually individually, halal tourism aims to realize aspects of the maqasid shari'ah, both the concept of the previous scholars (realizing the benefit of religion, soul, reason, descendants, and treasures) (othman, et al., 2017) and the concept of maqasid asy-shari'ah of jaser audah (ismanto, et al., 2020). culture-based tourism and local wisdom are characteristics in indonesia. this condition is a differentiator with other countries in terms of developing the concept of halal tourism (ismanto, 2022). indonesia has a wide range of cultures around the world. pekalongan city, as part of central java province, has a variety and types of interesting tourism, including religious tourism, culinary tourism, tourism, shopping, cultural tourism, historical tourism, and others (pekalongan city government, 2019). pekalongan city gained unesco recognition as a "kota kreatif/creative city" (susanti, 2018a). this region is known to be religious for its various religious tourism and religious activities (makshum, 2017). in its development, pekalongan city has been visited by tourists, both archipelago and foreign tourists. various development developments and awards have also been obtained by this city. today, religious tourism and shopping tourism become the mainstream of tourism, even though the city has a fairly rich history and culture. in terms of tourism, history, culture, islamic traditions, and local wisdom are very suitable to be developed into a tourist attraction. because, regional tourism that prioritizes local wisdom becomes distinctive and unique for the region. so, pekalongan city has an interesting tourism destination and has been recognized by the world in the creative industry. studies on regional tourism associated with local culture and wisdom have been conducted by previous researchers, such as (harirah, et al., 2021), (rofelawaty, 2017), (miftahudin, 2020), (ridwan, fatchan, & astina, 2016), (irfan & suryani, 2017), (hasanah, 2019b), (aswita, suryadarma, & suyanto, 2018). nevertheless, halal tourism research 54 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 52-62 associated with local wisdom still requires a more comprehensive explanation. among the studies that have been produced are the work of djakfar (2017), sholehuddin, munjin, & adinugraha (2021), kasdi, nashirudin, & farida (2021), yuspin, absori, & nurhayati (2019), sundari, et al., (2021), hajar (2019), and (qodariyah & wahed, 2019). in particular, the results of research in pekalongan city related to halal tourism have been produced by several previous researchers, such as ismanto (2019) showing that pekalongan city has the potential to become a halal tourism destination in the perspective of the global muslim travel index (gmti), which is also supported by nurwilda (2020). its existence is also supported by academics around pekalongan (ismanto & madusari, 2020a). from the above exposure, this paper aims to complement existing studies by analyzing the extent to which the halal tourism attractions of pekalongan city, especially local wisdom, can be a regional tourism attraction. 2. methods this research is categorized as field research with a qualitative approach. primary data is obtained through observations at tourist attractions and interviews with religious figures, community leaders, and also government representatives, especially tourism agencies. secondary data is obtained through the study of journal articles, books, research reports, websites, and other sources related to the research theme. this research data was analyzed using the miles & huberman analysis stage (1984), which started from data reduction, data display, and ended with data verification. the data are analyzed by methods of content analysis and theme analysis (attride-stirling, 2001). 3. result and discussion development of halal tourism in pekalongan city pekalongan city is in a strategic area, located in the north coastal area of java island, which borders the java sea in the north, batang regency in the east, and pekalongan regency to the south and west. this city consists of 4 sub-districts, namely west pekalongan, north pekalongan, east pekalongan, and south pekalongan. the population of pekalongan city in 20218 was 315,997 people, consisting of 49.98% of men and 50.02% of women (bps pekalongan city, 2021). pekalongan city is ethnically dominated by javanese with a javanese style of pekalongan dialect which is dialectally close to the javanese banyumasan tegal dialect or javanese semarang. pekalongan's history as a port and trading city makes it have a number of prominent immigrant communities, such as ethnic chinese and arabs, in addition to of course other nusantara tribes such as malays and banjars. so, pekalongan city is a plural and strategic city that can be accessed through various directions, both through various modes of transportation, especially land. pekalongan city is famous for its religious nuances, because the majority of the population embraces islam. there are several unique traditions in pekalongan such as the celebration of syawalan with giant lopis, fetival hot air balloons, sea alms (sadranan/peh cun), and other cultural activities that have been running and some of them are celebrated every year (bappeda pekalongan, 2019). syawalan as one of the annual agenda is a celebration seven days after eid al-fitr and is enlivened with giant lopis cuts to then be distributed to visitors (rokhayah, 2019). this agenda is routinely carried out in order to take care of traditions and attract tourists. pekalongan city is dubbed as "batik city", which is distinctive and global. pekalongan batik has been around since about 1800. this is inseparable from the history that since https://id.wikipedia.org/wiki/cina https://id.wikipedia.org/wiki/arab https://id.wikipedia.org/wiki/melayu https://id.wikipedia.org/wiki/banjar international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 52-62 55 hundreds of years ago until now, most pekalongan people produce batik (pekalongan, 2014). significant developments only occurred after the diponegoro war or also called the java war of 1825-1830 in the mataram kingdom. if previously the use of batik clothing was only limited to subordinate fabric clothing for women (jarik) and sarongs began to develop into finished clothing such as dress materials for women and shirts for men. the next development of batik became accessories for hats, households such as bed linen, bedcover, tablecloths, napkins and others. tourism is a concern for the pekalongan city government. this can be seen in the attention of the local government and also the diversity of types of tourist attractions. various awards have been received by this city further adding to the image of the city. among the types of tourism are cultural, religious, educational, culinary, shopping, history, nature, and others (pekalongan city government, 2019). this tourist attraction is spread across four sub-districts (see table 1.). table 1. types and attractions of pekalongan city tourist attractions object historical heritage tourism (heritage) 1. batik museum 2.

city is well developed, such as in the management of destinations and infrastructure. in the north has been developed the largest water tourism in indonesia by the central government in collaboration with the local government with which "new pasir kencana" (vishnu, 2022). several awards to tourism have also been obtained, so that the image of city tourism is getting better (ismanto, 2022). however, batik and its derivatives are the main tourist attraction in this city along with the batik museum. there is also a centralized batik shopping tour at the setono batik wholesale market. batik is a folk handicraft product that is the flagship of the region. not only referred to as a batik city in indonesia, pekalongan city is also referred to as the world's batik city. this is based on the condition of the community who mostly have their livelihoods as batik craftsmen. in addition, at the international batik week in 2011, the new slogan of pekalongan city "world's city of batik" was launched as the first step in a global batik city. pekalongan became the only representative of indonesia and even southeast asia to be included in the category of world creative cities by unesco in 2014. therefore, now not only the nickname of batik city owned by pekalongan, but also as a creative city that is recognized at the international level (susanti, 2018b). pekalongan city which is characterized by religious and creative has the potential to become a halal tourism destination (ismanto, 2022). this can be seen in the existence and diversity of halal tourism components in pekalongan city, such as attraction components, access, amenities, communication, environment, supporting facilities, and empowerment. a number of studies have also stated that pekalongan city is feasible and ready to become a halal tourism destination (ismanto, 2019; ismanto & madusari, 2020b; nurwilda, 2020). therefore, the development of pekalongan city tourism can be categorized as developing. local culture and wisdom in pekalongan city tourism the development of regional tourism that makes local culture and wisdom as tourist attractions makes the area has a distinctive regional identity (branding). the local culture international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 52-62 57 and wisdom are very attached to the community, so that the packaging becomes a tourist product and the involvement of local residents. the development of tourism involving the community means that it has lifted its dignity from several aspects, such as economic and social. this condition is in accordance with the concepts of community-based tourism development community based tourism (cbt) (sugandi, paturusi, & wiranatha, 2020) and sustainable tourism (sustainable tourism) (cuesta-valiño, bolifa, & núñez-barriopedro, 2020). according to timothy, mohsin, & ryan (2019),community-based tourism is an understanding related to the certainty of benefits obtained by the community and the existence of mentoring planning efforts that defend local communities. community participation in tourism consists of two perspectives, namely community participation in the decision-making process and participation related to the distribution of profits received by the community from tourism development. therefore, there are basically three main principles in the strategy of planning tourism development based on society. these two tourism concepts have made local culture and fanfare an important part of development. pekalongan city has a culture, traditions, local wisdom, and others that are typical of the region. the form of each culture and local wisdom is described in table 2 as follows: table 2. local karifan in pekalongan city local wisdom existed

dance pekalongan nusantara batik week source: compiled from various sources, 2021. from the exposure of table 2., the local culture and wisdom in pekalongan city can be used as a tourism attraction. among these forms of local wisdom are: a) tangibles of culture; b) local heritage wisdom; c) local wisdom of the economy; d) local religious wisdom of the community; e) local wisdom in people's social life; f) local culture and wisdom are manifested. local wisdom as a tourist attraction is common in various regions in indonesia, such as in yogyakarta (vitasurya, 2016), balik (kharisma & muni, 2017), lombok (irfan & suryani, 2017), and east java (suksmawati, pabyantara, & ..., 2020). thus, local wisdom in pekalongan city can also be done similarly. local wisdom as a halal tourism attraction of pekalongan city local wisdom is the ideas, values or views of a place that has a wise and good value nature that is followed and trusted by the community in that place and has been followed for generations (wandasari, 2017). pekalongan city is an area part of central java that has a unique local culture and wisdom. tangible and intangible culture belongs to this city. islamic values that appear in the daily activities of the community and historical relics, indicate this area has a distinctive historical heritage (heritage). some of the local wisdom in this area has been manifested so that it becomes an attraction for archipelago and foreign tourists such as long talisman parades, balloon festivals in syawalan, sea alms, and others (pekalongan city government, 2019). in the context of halal tourism, local culture and wisdom can be used as an attraction and tourist attraction. regional solidarity activities, such as syawalan celebrations, clerical hauls, simtuddurors, and others are packaged into one annual routine activity that can attract tourists from outside. by making local wisdom as the basis for the development of halal tourism makes this concept better, on the other hand economic benefits can be obtained. likewise with the development of halal tourism in the region and indonesia. the results of this study, in particular, further strengthen the results of previous research on the feasibility of pekalongan city to become a halal tourist destination conducted by researchers previously (ismanto, 2019; ismanto & madusari, 2020b; international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 52-62 59 nurwilda, 2020). in general, the results of this study also further strengthen that local culture and wisdom can be an interesting tourist product while protecting it from extinction as shown by previous research budiningtyas (2018), erna sadiarti budiningtyas & sirod (2021), raodatul hasanah (hasanah, 2019a), solemede, tamaneha, & selfanay (2020), and komariah, saepudin, & yusup (2018). 5. conclusion based on the results of research and discussion, this study produces conclusions. first, pekalongan city has the prospect and feasibility of becoming a halal tourism destination as well as previous studies with different theories and approaches. attractions and attractions owned by interesting and diverse areas, especially community-based tourist attractions. second pekalongan city has a distinctive and unique local culture and wisdom that cannot be separated from the history of the past with islamic history. the fact that the culture, islamic traditions, and local wisdom in pekalongan city has not been maximally packaged into a national and global tourist product, although these efforts have been made. from this research, it is necessary to follow up from the local government to carry out efforts to expand and promote so that local wisdom can be known by the wider community. for researchers, it is appropriate to conduct research on aspects of production, marketing, and branding of city tourism. references aswita, d., suryadarma, i. g. p., & suyanto, s.

islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 96-109 97 1. introduction the importance of islamic social responsibility disclosure or isrd for stakeholders, namely sharia government institutions, communities, people, and the environment, is that it can help make religious and economic decisions in a sharia company (zafar & sulaiman, 2019). it is because isrd is a manifestation of accountability to god and stakeholders and a form of transparency in business activities that disclose various information to meet the spiritual needs of muslim decision-makers (bukhari et al., 2020; santoso et al., 2018). isrd is mandatory for sharia companies because companies that operate with sharia principles will automatically be socially responsible as a form of obedience to allah's commands (hussain et al., 2020; setiawan et al., 2016). islamic banks have grown rapidly, in the global market, with volumes approaching us$ 1.7 billion as of june 2020, marking a 72.4% share of banking assets globally. to the islamic financial services industry stability report 2020, there are at least 36 islamic bank jurisdictions in the world, with an increase in the islamic banking market occurring in 19 countries, including the gulf-cooperation countries (gcc), the middle east and north africa (mena) and the asian region (zulfahmi et al., 2021). according to the international monetary fund imf, one of the causes of the success of the islamic bank market is the existence of ethical principles and socially responsible business (zulfahmi et al., 2021). the principles of ethics and socially responsible business in islamic banks are called isrd or islamic social responsibility disclosure. isrd, according to the accounting and auditing organizations for islamic financial institutions (aaoifi), is all activities carried out by islamic financial institutions to fulfill religious, economic, legal, ethical, and discretionary responsibilities (aaoifi, 2017). isrd is mandatory for every islamic bank because if it operates based on sharia principles, it will automatically be socially responsible (hussain et al., 2020). however, various studies state that the quality of isrd in islamic banks is still low (ahmad & rahman, 2019; nugraheni & wijayanti, 2017; sawitri et al., 2017). it is due to the absence of overall regulation on isrd (rimayanti & jubaedah, 2017). so that the pressure of business competition and corporate religious awareness causes the quality of isrd to increase (ahmad & rahman, 2019; bukhari et al., 2020). in islamic banks, there is a sharia supervisory board (ssb) that supervises sharia compliance in islamic banks (elamer et al., 2019; kamarulzaman & madun, 2013). however, various studies have shown that the quantity of ssb members does not affect the quality of isrd (dewindaru et al., 2019; meutia et al., 2019; suryadi & lestari, 2018; wardani & sari, 2019). it is because the individual quality of ssb members affects the quality of isrd more than the quantity the number of ssb members (dewindaru et al., 2019). in hasan mukhibad (2018), the educational background of islamic economics, education, and doctoral education ratio member ssb positively affects the quality of isrd. it means that higher education and relevant members of the ssb will increase the effectiveness of ssb islamic banks in terms of increased isrd quality (mukhibad, 2018). this result is also in line with the research of farook and colleagues, which showed that the higher the doctoral qualification and the international reputation of ssb, the higher the quality of isrd (farook et al., 2011). it is due to the increasing number of ssb members with higher education levels, the higher the level of supervision, independence, and the tendency of ssb, so the pressure on the ssb to encourage islamic banks to improve the quality of isrd is increasing. in this study, the researchers used the ssb education level and the ssb doctoral ratio as proxies for the ssb characteristics in their effect on isrd quality. 98 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 96-109 because of this research, the researcher considers the ssb characteristic variables and the iah ratio can affect the quality of isrd. it is due to the strategic position of ssb, which is equivalent to the board of commissioners (meutia et al., 2019), and the iah ratio is the ratio of savings deposits owned by customers as stakeholders of islamic banks (farook et al., 2011; guermazi, 2020; putri & mardian, 2020). the isrd measurement uses four themes, namely the theme of zakat, employees, communities, and the environment adopted from previous research, namely othman & thani (2010), sofian & muhamad (2020), and brahim & arab (2020). this study also uses cross-country studies based on the highest percentage of poor people in selected parts of asia and europe, namely indonesia (southeast asia), bangladesh (south asia), jordan (west asia), and turkey (southeast europe). the research year used is the latest, namely 20132019. this study uses control variables in the form of profitability and firm size. control variables are used because the independent variables are not influenced by external factors not examined in this study (sugiyono, 2017). this study uses profitability because profitable businesses often aim to expand their social responsibility to persuade stakeholders, notably investors, that the business cares about more than just short-term effects (profit), such as long-term objectives (chumaidah & priyadi, 2018). size is because larger companies tend to pay more attention to the running of their companies, so the tendency of information disclosure also increases (hussain et al., 2020; setiawan et al., 2016). this study used islamic stakeholder theory. according to islamic stakeholder theory, every employment and business activity is worship. hence they must be carried out by allah and follow his precepts, with allah serving as the primary stakeholder and possessing all of the world's resources (beekun & badawi, 2005; mohammed & muhammed, 2017). this study contributes to filling the previous research gap where this study uses the variables of ssb education level, ssb doctoral ratio, and iah ratio. in addition, the isrd index used is a combination of the isrd index in the previous research. this study used samples and the latest research year, namely islamic banks in indonesia, bangladesh, jordan, and turkey in 2013-2019. this research also contributes, among others, as a reference for regulators in updating related regulations and establishing new regulations regarding isrd islamic banks, as a reference on islamic stakeholder theory in developing hypotheses in further sharia research, as a reference for islamic banks in evaluating and maximizing isrd quality in sharia bank annual report, as a reference for investors in making investment decisions, as a reference for creditors in considering decisions to provide credit, and as a reference for the development of science and further research on isrd. 2. method the population in this study are islamic banks located in indonesia, bangladesh, jordan, and turkey from 2013 to 2019. the sampling technique in this study uses a non-probability sampling method using particular criteria, which include a. islamic banks are located in indonesia, bangladesh, jordan, and turkey from 2013 to 2019; b. islamic banks are located in countries with the highest percentage of poor people in selected parts of asia and europe, namely indonesia for southeast asia, bangladesh for south asia, jordan for west asia, and turkey for southeast europe; c. islamic banks have annual report data as of 31 december, which can be accessed online; d. islamic banks have complete data regarding the variables used in the study; international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 96-109 99 e. islamic banks did not conduct mergers or acquisitions during the study period. by using purposive sampling, this study obtained 17 islamic banks with 100 observations. the dependent variable of this study is islamic social responsibility disclosure (isrd). corporate social responsibility in an islamic perspective or islamic social responsibility disclosure (isrd) is an alternative philosophical framework based on sharia principles regarding the rules of human relations with nature and with fellow humans in business as a form of worship to allah swt (khurshid et al., 2014). the isrd proxy uses isrd scores in the categories of zakat, employees, communities, and the environment that have been developed by previous researchers, namely othman & thani (2010), sofian & muhamad (2020); and brahim & arab (2020). scoring is done by giving a score of 1 for companies that disclose each disclosure index and a score of 0 for companies that do not disclose any disclosure index in the annual report, then the number of isrd scores disclosed is divided by the maximum value of the isrd score (brahim & arab, 2020; dewindaru et al., 2019; farook et al., 2011; fauziah & j, 2013; hassan & harahap, 2010; hussain et al., 2020; jaiyeoba et al., 2018; jannah & asrori, 2016; jati et al., 2020; khasanah & yulianto, 2015; kurniawati & yaya, 2017; meutia et al., 2019; nissa & asrori, 2017; novrizal & fitri, 2016; nugraheni & khasanah, 2019; othman & thani, 2010; prasetyoningrum, 2019; ramadhani, 2016; rimayanti & jubaedah, 2017; rosiana et al., 2016; santoso et al., 2018; setiawan et al., 2016; sulistyawati & indah, 2017) the independent variable used sharia supervisory board (ssb) education level, ssb doctoral ratio, and investment account holders (iah) ratio. ssb education level is proxied by giving a score of 3 to members with a doctoral education level, a score of 2 at the master's education level, and a score of 1 at the undergraduate education level, and then the total score is divided by the number of ssb members (mukhibad, 2018). the ssb doctoral ratio is proxied by the ratio of ssb members who have a doctoral education background to the total ssb members (mukhibad, 2018). the iah ratio is proxied by the ratio of the total amount of third-party funds to the total amount of paid-in capital in shareholder equity (astuti & nurkhin, 2019; charatunnisa & muthmainah, 2019; farook et al., 2011; hikmatullah, 2019; khasanah & yulianto, 2015; mukhibad, 2018; nissa & asrori, 2017; zanjabil & adityawarman, 2015). the control variable uses profitability and size. profitability is measured using the return on equity or roe ratio, which is the ratio between net income after tax and company capital (hardian, 2016; hijriah, 2019; nugraheni & wijayanti, 2017). firm size is measured by the total assets of islamic bank companies (farook et al., 2011; hussain et al., 2020; meutia et al., 2019). the estimated model used in this study is as follows: 100 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 96-109 figure 1. model of research the data were analyzed using a panel data regression analysis with time series and cross-section data. the panel data is then tested with the classical assumption test so that the panel data model becomes valid as an estimator. then, the panel data model is selected between common effect, fixed effect, and random effects. there are three hypothesis testing carried out, namely the f statistical test, the multiple determination coefficient test (r2), and the t statistic test. the f statistical test is used to test the significant effect of the independent variables simultaneously on the dependent variable. the multiple determination coefficient tests (r2) are used to figure out the percentage variations of the dependent variables to the model explained by the independent variable. the statistical ttest is conducted to examine the effect of each independent variable on the dependent variable and assume that the other independent variables are constant. 3. result and discussion research samples and descriptive statistics the purposive sampling method used to determine the sample caused several banks to be eliminated, so the final sample used in this study was 17 companies with 100 observations.

sample tested was 100 observations. the average natural logarithm of islamic social responsibility disclosure or isrd of islamic international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 96-109 101 banks in indonesia, bangladesh, jordan, and turkey in 2013-2019 is -15.4%. the maximum isrd value is 17.3%, and the minimum isrd value is -55.1%. for the sharia supervisory board (ssb) education level variable, members with ph.d. degrees receive a score of 3, master's degree holders receive a score of 2, and undergraduate students receive a score of 1. the total score is divided by the number of ssb members (farook et al., 2011; mukhibad, 2018). the average value of the natural logarithm of the education level of ssb members is 31.6%. the maximum value for the natural logarithm of the ssb education level is 42.4%, and the minimum value is 15.4%. the average value of the ssb doctoral ratio variable is 54.6%. this shows that, on average, half of the ssb members have a doctoral education background. this is in accordance with the ifsb's instructions that ssb requires members with doctoral degrees to be able to carry out the duties and functions of ssb properly (ginena & hamid, 2015). even so, the minimum value of this variable is 0%, which indicates that there are ssbs that do not have members with a doctoral education background. the average value of the investment account holder (iah) ratio is 7.666, indicating that the average ratio of bank customer deposits to shareholder equity is 7.666. the maximum value of the iah ratio is 16.605, and the minimum value of the iah ratio is -1.085. the existence of a negative value is due to losses experienced by one of the islamic banks every year, which causes the total equity to be negative. in the control variable, profitability is used as proxied by return on equity (roe), and the size of islamic banks is proxied by the natural logarithm of total assets. the average profitability of islamic banks is 5.3%. the maximum value of profitability is 16.1%, while the minimum value of profitability is -14.8%. in the size of islamic banks the average natural logarithm of the size of islamic banks is 6.599, while the maximum value is 7.413 and the minimum value is 5.427. normality test in the test results, the probability value of the normality test in this study is 0.649253, which is greater than the significance value of 0.05. the research data has been normally distributed. multicollinearity test table 2 shows that there is no correlation coefficient because all values do not exceed |0.8|, so it can be concluded that the data used does not experience multicollinearity problems. table 2. multicollinearity test results logpend keu iah size logsize logpend 1 keu 0.7681 1 iah

(2011) explained that spirituality in entrepreneurship presents a conceptual analysis that impacts entrepreneurial motivation, performance, and commitment to social responsibility. in addition, mubarak et al. (2014) research shows that spirituality is an essential aspect of islamic entrepreneurship associated with the attitude of internal religious values as the final solution. previous research by grine et al. (2015) explored the influence of islamic spirituality on muslim women's entrepreneurship in malaysia, showing the effect on career, business ventures, and entrepreneurial behavior. therefore, in nafis's (2011) review, spiritual entrepreneurs produce the role of entrepreneurs by combining professionalism and spirituality, producing worldly (psychological) and hereafter benefits rather than physical and material aspects. it is okay to pursue the highest profit, but when the ambition to achieve high profit puts the other party at a loss, it can potentially worsen business conditions. examples are the exploitation of consumers, which causes losses to consumers, and the exploitation of nature, which causes environmental damage. these conditions can trigger business unsustainability and deviate from the essence of business from an islamic perspective (shahabuddin et al., 2020). in islam, spirituality is the awareness of monotheism towards allah swt in human life to be able to follow his will and direction (m. s. rahman et al., 2019). the phenomenon of spirituality associated with islamic business refers to the awareness of business people that the benefits obtained are not limited to nominal shortterm profits in the world but also the achievement of long-term profits in the hereafter (astrachan et al., 2020). companies that base their activities on spiritual values are proven to survive and develop well. in general, there are six benefits for companies that base their business on the spiritual aspect. first, the company will be far away from various frauds (fraud) that may occur as a result of "justifying all means" because this is where the bankruptcy of a business begins (murfianti & mayangsari, 2020). second, increasing company productivity and performance (singh, 2019). third, the creation of a harmonious work atmosphere. fourth, increasing the company's positive image. fifth, the company will grow and develop sustainably. sixth, reducing employee turnover (rodrigues et al., 2019). market conditions are uncertain, raw material prices are relatively unstable, and people's purchasing power tends to fluctuate. this condition does not discourage business actors from surviving despite internal constraints such as inadequate quality and quantity of resources, limited capital, and product standardization. the existing social networks, values, norms, and trust owned by each entrepreneur also influence the sustainability of their industry, so many industries remain amid increasingly fierce market competition (scholz, 84 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 82-95 2019). one of the values and norms is part of the spiritual side that entrepreneurs can apply through their islamic spiritual intelligence (pakdaman & balideh, 2020). in addition, the emergence of the coronavirus pandemic (covid-19), which occurred suddenly at the beginning of this year, significantly impacted people's lives, including the economy. this condition has not only disrupted the economy but has also interrupted the movement of the indonesian economy. it is based on data for the first quarter of 2020 against the first quarter of 2019 of 2.97 percent (year-on-year), slowing down compared to the achievement in the first quarter of 2019, which was 5.07 percent (badan pusat statistik, 2020). of course, this is closely related to the msme business movement in the era of new norms because it is increasingly being echoed in the face of changes in the economic order (fahriyah, 2020). the role of business actors is significant in determining the goals and direction of a business (bull & miklian, 2019). they can intuitively see and manage every opportunity, namely business opportunities that can be used to gain profits toward success and achieve long-term business sustainability (haldar, 2019). the potential of this business actor is the result of a combination of spiritual values that they apply with creativity to their consistency in building the business. it is hoped that muslim entrepreneurial intelligence combined with the value of islamic spirituality can be a strategy to form the strength of islamic spiritual intelligence that exists in every human being and can be a model of a successful muslim entrepreneur (syamsul bahri et al., 2021). it is a potential for business actors to manage business amidst business development to achieve business continuity from an islamic perspective. based on the background that has been presented, the purpose of this study is to find out how to apply islamic spiritual intelligence as an entrepreneurial strategy in dealing with the post-pandemic. 2. literature review a. islamic perspective business continuity the values in sharia principles become a spirit in every business action and transaction that occurs during the process of achieving business continuity (handayani, 2020). the factor of blessing and seeking the pleasure of allah swt is essential in achieving business continuity based on sharia principles. because these principles can be used as a basis for business orientation, they are always in the corridor of islamic law (sadri et al., 2020). there are several types of business continuity studies, namely, sustainability of capital, sustainability of human resources, sustainability of production, and sustainability of marketing. it emphasizes and is based on three keywords implied in the definition of business continuity: meeting needs, developing resources, and protecting resources (panigrahi et al., 2019; minoja & romano, 2021). there are several aspects to consider for the development of business activities within the islamic framework to achieve business continuity, namely 1. production production is finding, allocating, and processing resources into output to increase the mashalahat for humans (rivai et al.. 2019). all production activities are tied to islamic moral and technical values. islamic values relevant to production are developed from three central values in islamic economics: khilafah, fairness, and takaful (al-jarhi, 2019). in more detail, these values, for example, have a long-term perspective, keep promises and contracts, and avoid forbidden things. of the raw materials used, the production process, and others. 2. marketing international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 82-95 85 marketing in islam is defined as a strategic business discipline that leads to the process of creating, offering, and changing the value of an initiator to its stakeholders, which in the whole process is following the contract and the principles of muamalat (business) in islam (aditya, 2018). yusoff (2019) stated that emphasizing the spiritual value of islam at every stage of the comprehensive sharia marketing process includes the process of creation, offering, to changing the added value of a product offered as well as the contracts that accompany the marketing process. there are four characteristics of sharia marketing that can be a guide, namely: 1) theistic (rabbâniyyah) means divine, 2) ethical (akhlâqiyyah) means morality and ethical values, 3) realistic (al-waqi'iyyah) is flexible but always puts forward religious values, and 4) humanistic (insâniyyah) means is universal for all mankind with the power of human unity. 3. financial in sharia principles, it has been revealed that usury is forbidden, as in the word of allah in qs. al-baqarah [2]: 275. business actors with sharia principles must abstain from practices that contain usury. the use of lawful finances is prioritized. islam has legalized several effective ways to create capital, one of which is the principle of participation, which is to encourage mutually beneficial cooperation and solidarity. the existence of islamic financial institutions makes it easy to get capital with an agreed cooperation scheme (shinkafi et al., 2019). 4. human resource management human resources (hr) are company resources that are dynamic in nature so that particular treatment is needed. islamic spiritual intelligence opens a new discourse in managing human resources, which puts forward the values of conscience as a guide so that they always follow the straight path (eman ahmed, 2020). the roles of managers and employees are significant for business, and goodness must start from the manager; if the manager is good, they will be able to provide sound direction to their subordinates. returning to the manager or business actor, as the leader in the business, exemplary is a vital aspect that a manager or leader must have. a. elements of islamic spiritual intelligence spiritual intelligence developed following the framework of the qur'an can form spiritual awareness, which is formed based on the merger of a belief system (faith), worship, morality, and social responsibility (bensaid et al., 2014). regarding the elements that build islamic spiritual intelligence, several aspects underlie islamic spiritual intelligence, namely alrûh (spirit), al-qalb (heart), al-nafs (soul), al-all (reason), faith, worship, and morality. in other words, these aspects become human inner strength that comes from the soul, heart, feelings, strong faith, diligently worshiping, adhering to allah's principles, and having good character (baharuddin & ismail, 2015b). the involvement of this islamic spiritual intelligence supports character and moral development amid islamic spiritual values. the character that relies on the quality of the prophet muhammad through his characteristics is the basis for realizing a balance in the dimensions of islamic spiritual intelligence. these aspects are shiddîq (telling the truth), amânah (reliable), tablîgh (clever in conveying), and fathânah (wise) (z. a. rahman & shah, 2015). some say these elements are creative, disciplined, empathetic/caring, forwardthinking (visionary), responsible, independent, and intelligent. another opinion states that the indicators of islamic spiritual intelligence are piety, responsibility, faith, and achievement orientation (shaari, 2020). some elements of islamic spiritual intelligence are considered to have in common and are considered following the 86 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 82-95 practice of islamic entrepreneurship, which aims to achieve business continuity. as for the essence of the elements above, the author summarizes them into several elements of islamic spiritual intelligence, namely faith, piety, morality, shiddîq, amânah, tablîigh, fathânah, discipline, visionary, and empathy. 3. method to address the identified research gaps and investigate this research adopting qualitative approach strategy research, using literature studies (reputable journal sources) and in-depth interviews. in this study, data processing was collected through literature studies (reputable journals) and in-depth interviews. furthermore, the data is managed using nvivo plus 12 through coding similarity analysis then a conclusion is drawn. nvivo analyzes qualitative data to produce more professional results (hilal & alabri, 2013). to strengthen this research, in addition to a literature review through literature studies with reputable journal sources, data collection was also carried out by sampling techniques. then determine the sample whose number corresponds to the sample size that will be used as the actual data source by paying attention to the characteristics and distribution of the population in order to obtain a representative sample. the sample of this research is the management of umkm business by students in the business charity in the muhammadiyah student association based on arief & alfina (2021). it is based on the application of islamic sharia, consisting of 34 provincial leaders at the provincial level throughout indonesia. it represents students at the branch leadership level, branch managers, and regional leaders in a hierarchical structure. sampling is based on judgment or purposive sampling; the sample is selected in the presence of specific criteria used by researchers, namely marketing executive (me) in elected management, as many as 13 people who are representatives of each province's leader. data was collected employing online interviews through the zoom application by giving a raised hand signal to agree or disagree. the overall sample consisted of regional leaders in as many as 34 provinces, with 13 students in each regional leader representing 128 respondents. 4. result and discussion a. result according to the islamic viewpoint, business is defined as a series of activities that take various forms. however, there are limitations regarding how the assets are obtained and utilized (there are halal and haram rules). islam has also taught the application of sharia principles in business entities. the conduct of business must stick to the provisions of the shari'a (the rules in the koran and hadith). in other words, the shari'a is the primary value that serves as a strategic and tactical umbrella for economic activity (business) actors (khan et al., 2018). in the word of allah swt in the al-quran surah al-nisa [4]: 29, "o people who believe, do not eat each other's wealth in a way that is vanity, except by way of commerce that applies equally between you. and do not kill yourselves; allah swt is most merciful to you." the above verse shows the completeness of islamic law in regulating and fortifying business activities. it is in line with what was exemplified by the prophet muhammad, through good morals guiding people to think, say, and act using the references of the qur'an and hadith to expect the pleasure of allah (al parslan, 2019). international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 82-95 87 figures 1 4 show the application of processes to business based on business continuity from an islamic perspective and how to achieve it by reviewing the elements of islamic spiritual intelligence with a total percentage of 100%. figure 1 describes business continuity in hr performance, figure 2 is about marketing performance, figure 3 is about production performance, and figure 4 is about financial performance. it can be seen from figures 1 4 that the elements of faith and piety are the most dominant elements compared to other elements in their implementation, with the lowest percentage of 13% and the highest reaching 17% of the total. meanwhile, empathy and morality are the minor elements at a percentage of less than 5% in business continuity, even though in marketing performance, the elements of discipline and vision are the lowest. furthermore, other elements, such as siddiq and amanah, are the most stable among the other elements. the percentage figures differ from each other by applying 8%. however, in business continuity, fathanah and tabligh also become stable elements with an average percentage of 7% at the level of analysis. figure 1: improvement of hrm performance source: secondary data processed through the nvivo 12 application (2022) 88 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 82-95 figure 2: improvement of marketing performance source: secondary

intelligence to get a strategy for improving organizational performance. in applying elements of islamic spiritual intelligence in business, hr performance is more dominant in its application, with the highest percentage of 35%, followed by production performance and marketing performances which reach 28% and 21%, respectively. meanwhile, financial performance is a process that has the lowest percentage of 14%. in hr performance, human involvement is more dominant than other business support processes such as technology and other resources. it is inversely proportional to seeing the performance review on financial performance, which technology has greatly international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 82-95 89 assisted. meanwhile, in production and marketing performance, the achievement of performance is relatively stable in the findings found because technology and humans have almost equal roles in each process. applying the business continuity process to technology and humans has a close relationship that will determine performance achievement by applying elements of islamic spiritual intelligence. figure 5: improvement of organizational performance source: secondary data processed through the nvivo 12 application (2022) the word similarity analysis shown in figure 6 is carried out to obtain the similarity of relevant analysis relationships related to cluster analysis to produce a diagram that classifies the interrelationships between the variables obtained. the application of each element consisting of faith, piety (taqwa), morality, shiddîq (honest), amânah (responsible), tablîgh (conveying), fathânah (intelligent), discipline, visionary, and empathy has a relationship with each other which mutually support the application in the business continuity process. this shows that the elements of islamic spiritual intelligence can be a strategy in business processes that can be implemented through business continuity processes such as hr performance, marketing performance, production performance, and financial performance in facing challenges in the new average era. 90 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 82-95 figure 6: the mutually supportive relationship between elements of islamic spiritual intelligence and the process of business continuity source: secondary data processed through the nvivo 12 application (2022) b. discussion entrepreneurship from an islamic perspective is not just a simple summary of concepts related to entrepreneurship and islam. for this reason, the relevance of both can be aimed at the islamic spirituality that every human being has. in this study, it can be found that business continuity and islamic spiritual intelligence can be in line with the stages of organizational management. it can be seen from the results obtained that the elements of islamic spiritual intelligence can be a business strategy for its sustainability. each element can support the other to improve the performance of business processes such as hr performance, marketing performance, production performance, and financial performance. it supports the findings of ghozali et al. (2019), which explain that spirituality also refers to applying the tawhid paradigm, which creates a harmonious relationship between the world and the hereafter in a business context. spiritual intelligence in this study can also be used as religious intelligence, where a person can understand and apply it in daily life by worshiping according to their respective religions (amiruddin et al., 2019). spiritual intelligence provides a moral framework, motivation, ethos, and spirit (dawson, 2020). in addition, islamic spiritual intelligence is the inner strength of humans that comes from the soul, heart, feelings, and deep faith, practicing diligently based on the principles of allah and good characteristics (baharuddin & ismail, 2015a). in this study, hr performance shows a more dominant process than other business processes. it is also in line with the essence of well-developed islamic spiritual intelligence, which will be marked by a person's ability to behave and behave ethically, and ultimately international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 82-95 91 make someone understand the meaning of his life (pakdaman & balideh, 2020). islamic spiritual intelligence can also be implemented in business management with humans as objects. it is an important matter that sometimes often goes unnoticed by entrepreneurs. this implementation aligns with the natural form of business activities following islamic teachings (machmud & hidayat, 2020). human resource management, seen from an islamic management point of view, there are basic abilities that business actors in islamic entrepreneurship should have: 1) being able to motivate employee members; 2) being able to assign tasks to employees clearly and according to their respective abilities in their fields, able to provide rewards or gifts that can be in the form of material or praise to motivation that encourages employees, likewise, if there is an error, the manager can provide punishment or sanctions such as in the form of reprimands, then able to provide good examples such as disciplinary attitudes that employees can emulate at al-baqarah [2]: 44. in the process of production and business marketing as a form of worship by applying the rules in islamic law. it can be stated in business management with islamic ethics in decision-making and implementation (alyammahi et al., 2021). it is in line with islam, which has taught people to do business in ways that follow islamic law, not in a way that is vanity or wrongdoing others (qs. al-nisa [4]: 29). this study also explains the perceptions of people involved in the business. who thinks that the form of faith in islamic entrepreneurship can demonstrate through the belief that allah swt is the provider of sustenance through the efforts he builds and believes that every effort is part of worship so that it is done well and can be done? benefit others. then, the piety reflected in islamic entrepreneurship can become a real potential in the business process. morality aims to obtain the happiness of living in this world now and in the hereafter, in human relations with god, oneself, others, and nature. among the most critical transaction values in business is honesty. the element of trust is also essential for islamic entrepreneurship, which positively impacts consumer satisfaction and trust through good accountability for the mandate they provide, resulting in consumer loyalty towards business continuity. furthermore, tablîgh is related to communication skills, reasonable negotiations, and establishing friendships in entrepreneurship. rasulullah saw, as an accomplished entrepreneur, has provided an example of the potential of tablîgh in doing business. additionally, intelligence and wisdom will motivate them to continue to learn and absorb all clues of knowledge to develop themselves to be more helpful. accuracy of commitment to duties and work. a strong vision for an entrepreneur is essential as a primary goal for the running of a business and a trigger for the goals to be achieved, namely the achievement of long-term business sustainability. other people's sun forms. empathy in islamic entrepreneurship includes concern for humans and the environment. this study also refers to the goal of humans as servants of allah through the potential of islamic spiritual intelligence that can support the management of feelings well, then affects the mindset, both related to personal interests, work, and in overcoming various situations (abdullah et al., 2019). it can be developed to be more valuable and effective as motivation to achieve goals. support for islamic spirituality is based on the principles of faith in allah swt, which form certain attitudes and practices which are oriented as forms of worship. it can be expressed in various work activities, specifically in entrepreneurship. in the islamic view, the stages of the management process of a business are intended as worship whose purpose is to achieve the 92 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 82-95 benefit of life, and each stage can hold the essence of islamic spirituality. 5. conclusion support from islamic spirituality, which is based on the principles of faith in allah swt, can form certain attitudes and practices oriented as worship. it can be expressed in various work activities, one of which is entrepreneurship, which aims to seek god's pleasure so that the motivation is not only to achieve material gain but to achieve blessings in the hereafter. islamic spirituality that is born from every human being can be utilized as a power in the form of islamic spiritual intelligence whose elements consist of faith, piety, morality, shiddîq, amânah, tablîgh, fathânah, discipline, visionary, and empathy. the elements of islamic spiritual intelligence have the potential to be implemented in business activities in order to achieve business continuity. process stages such as production management, marketing, capital, and human resources all have the potential to be managed based on islamic spiritual values. for business actors, in simple terms, the values of islamic spirituality can provide the potential to be utilized to produce attitudes and characters that can be implemented in order to achieve business continuity following an islamic perspective. the potential of islamic spiritual intelligence for human life is to generate motivation until it is reflected through an attitude that, as a whole, refers to islamic ethical values. for islamic entrepreneurship, the elements of islamic spirituality contained in islamic spiritual intelligence can have a positive influence through the attitudes of entrepreneurs in entrepreneurship as motivation that drives business, has a role in the decision-making process, and provides positive energy for business performance. this potential can be implemented in all stages of the business process, namely in the management of production, marketing, capital, and human resources, all of which can work together well to achieve sustainable business goals. according to the islamic perspective, the achievement of business continuity, apart from the financial side. the achievement of the blessing of sustenance and pleasure of allah swt also interprets it. the business and the ability of the business to benefit many parties. acknowledgment the authors are grateful to the supervisors and students at each university for their support and knowledge. the authors also would like to thank the informants from the muhammadiyah student association team who have been willing to answer questions and continue strengthening the data's capacity and validity to conduct this research. references abdullah, a., masruri, s., & bashori, k.

creative economy sector in deciding on islamic banking financing in indonesia. we investigated the role of islamic financial awareness, islamic financial knowledge, and islamic financial skills. we also examine whether the decision to use islamic banking financing impacts business performance. by using a path analysis approach, the results of this study show that islamic financial awareness and financial skills positively impact the decision to finance in islamic banking. meanwhile, the decision to finance in islamic banking has a positive effect on business performance, but insignificant. other results show that islamic financial skills positively and significantly impact msme business performance. the results of this study imply that business actors in the creative economy sector must be given an understanding of islamic financial skills and islamic financial awareness. on the other hand, islamic banking must expand financing in the creative economy sector through a more

and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 138-147 139 1. introduction micro, small and medium enterprises (msmes) play a strategic role in the national economy. in indonesia, the contribution of msmes is the formation of gdp and absorption of labor. in 2018, the contribution of msmes in the formation of indonesia's gdp reached 61.1 percent, able to absorb a workforce of 117 million workers. msmes in indonesia are dominated by micro businesses, which reach 98.68 percent, with workforce absorption of around 89 percent and a share of gdp of 37.80 percent (ministry of finance, 2020). one of the keys to success in developing a business is the availability of access to financial services. with access to finance, entrepreneurs can develop their businesses into bigger ones. but unfortunately, not all msmes have access to formal financial institutions, especially msmes engaged in creative economics, both access to conventional finance and access to islamic finance, even though the creative economy has become an alternative in the development of the national economy and global economy. globally, the creative economy can grow well. in 2012 2015, the creative economy grew by 7.34 percent, and export growth increased from $ 208 billion in 2002 to $ 509 billion in 2015. developed countries with the most significant exports in the creative economy are europe, the united states, and canada. developing asian countries are china, india, hong kong, singapore, taiwan, turkey, thailand, and malaysia (unctad, 2018). in indonesia, exports from the creative economy sector from 2010 to 2016 have consistently increased, with a share of total exports amounting to 13.77 percent. the fashion sub-sector had the most prominent export value of $ 10.9 billion in 2016, ranked second by the crafts sub-sector with an export value of $ 7.8 billion. the culinary sub-sector occupies third place with an export value of $ 1.2 billion. meanwhile, the region with the largest export producer in west java province, with an export value of $ 6.39 billion or 31.96 percent of the total export value of the creative economy. the export destination countries for the creative economy are unites states, switzerland, and japan (bps, 2017). table 1. creative economy export 2010 2016 source : bps, 2017 during covid-19, the creative economy sector was also significantly affected and also affected the volume of exports. in 2019, the export volume of the creative economy reached usd 20 billion, and in 2020 the number of exports decreased to usd 15.05 billion. four sectors still contribute significantly to exports: fashion at usd 9.06 billion, crafts at usd 4.95 billion, culinary at usd 1.03 billion, and publishing at usd 0.013 billion (kemeparekraf, 2021). during the pandemic, the creative economy sector still contributed positively to the gdp of idr 1,211 billion in 2020. this figure has increased from 2019, which contributed idr 1.105 billion. in 2021, the creative economy will contribute to a gdp of idr 1.134 billion or 6.98 percent (antaranews, 2022). the difficulty of msmes engaged in the creative economy sector in obtaining access to formal financial institutions is due to several factors, including the unwillingness of a suitable financing 140 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 138-147 scheme for the creative economy, difficulty in marketing due to uncertain demand cycles, and static production aspects (bank indonesia, 2015). the problems presented by bank indonesia show that financial institutions still need to see bright prospects in the creative economy sector, so only a few businesses in the creative economy sector have been provided with financing by financial institutions for their business development. to develop a business, entrepreneurs engaged in the creative economy use more individual funds, and only six percent use financial services in developing their businesses (pikiran rakyat, 2017). not only are conventional financial institutions not interested in providing financing for businesses in the creative economy, but islamic financial institutions also have yet to see good prospects from the creative economy sector for financing. so islamic financial institutions' financing in the creative economy sector is still relatively small. the creative economy agency (bekraf) of the republic of indonesia has taken an approach to islamic banking to participate in advancing the creative economy sector by providing financing with a suitable scheme (kompas, 2018). sharia banking positively welcomes the steps of the ministry of creative economy in supporting the development of the creative economy in indonesia by using the productive waqf scheme to make financing. bni syariah (bank syariah indonesia) claims to be serious about working on this creative economy sector (trianto et al., 2021). the ministry of tourism and creative economy (kemenparekraf) of the republic of indonesia collaborates with the national committee on sharia economics and finance (kneks) to develop the creative economy sector. with the collaboration between kemenparakraf and kneks, it is hoped to strengthen the creative economy sector and sharia finance. the minister of tourism and creative economy, salahudin s. uno, said that the islamic economy and finance became a global trend related to tourism and the creative economy. the small number of msmes engaged in the creative economy sector in accessing islamic financial institutions is also due to indonesia's low level of islamic financial literacy. according to a report from the financial services authority (ojk) of the republic of indonesia, the islamic financial literacy index in indonesia has only reached 8.1 percent, meaning that out of 100 residents in indonesia, there are only eight people who know sharia financial services (ojk, 2017). financial literacy is defined as knowledge, skills, and beliefs that influence attitudes and behavior to improve the quality of decision making of financial (ojk, 2017). financial literacy is very important for a person and also for msmes. for individuals and entrepreneurs, financial literacy will help them manage finances, mitigating risks such as saving and diversifying assets to make financial decisions (lusardi & tufano, 2015). empirical facts also show that entrepreneurs with sound financial literacy improve their business performance (fatoki, 2014; chepngetich, 2016; susan, 2020; trianto et al., 2021). besides financial literacy, access to formal financial institutions also has a vital role in developing a business. scholars such as demirguc-kunt (2017) and abubakar (2015) believe that the existence of financial institutions is significant for entrepreneurs or msmes in developing their businesses. because of the importance of access to formal financial institutions, the world bank (2020) established the financial inclusion support framework (fisf). the purpose of forming fisf is so that those with small incomes, including msmes, can formally access financial institutions. empirical facts also show that entrepreneurs with access to financial institutions can develop their businesses well (fowowe, 2017; hussain et al., 2018; okello et al. (2017). although many researchers have studied the relationship between financial literacy and business performance and access to formal financial institutions with business performance, no researchers have investigated the creative economy sector, especially msmes who have to get financing through islamic banks. this study aims to see the impact of financial literacy and the availability of access to islamic financial institutions on business performance in the creative economy sector. this research is essential to obtain empirical facts related to the contribution of islamic banking in developing the business of msmes in the creative economy sector. the focus of this study is business actors in the creative economy sector who have made financing to islamic financial institutions, both in the form of profit international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 138-147 141 and loss sharing (pls) and non-pls-based financing. islamic financial institutions provide financing as an alternative to the usury system imposed on conventional financial institution financing. based on the description, this article investigates this case because a creative economy is a new alternative to renewable economic development. the indonesian government is serious about developing the creative economy because it has excellent potential to be developed. on the one hand, the creative economy faces considerable challenges in developing its business, especially in financing halal finance. the creative economy is still not the primary goal of islamic banking in financing, even though the potential is tremendous. 2. method data this research was conducted in the city of pekanbaru, where the sample was business people in the creative economy sector who had ever financed islamic financial institutions, both islamic banking (ib), islamic rural bank (bprs), and islamic cooperative (bmt). the research data was taken using a questionnaire with a likert scale of 1 5. data was collected through an online questionnaire to reduce the risk of covid-19. the online questionnaire was sent to the entrepreneur community, such as bangkit pengusaha muslim (bpm) and generasi entrepreneur profesional (genpro). researchers received feedback from 140 respondents, but after being selected according to the criteria of this study, there were only 55 samples that matched the criteria. therefore, the total sample involved in this study was 55 business owners. following is a respondent distribution based on islamic financial institution financing: table 2. respondent distribution no islamic financial institution total percentage 1 islamic banking (ib) 46 83.64 2 islamic rural banking (bprs) 6 10.91 3 islamic cooperative

a system of variables (allen, 2017). in path analysis, there are direct impacts and indirect impacts. its impact is the direct effect of exogenous variables on endogenous variables. thus, the indirect impact is an indirect effect between exogenous and endogenous variables. 3. result and discussion respondent profile table 4 shows the profile of the respondents where the respondents in this study were dominated by women, with a total of 67.27 percent, while men only amounted to 32.73 percent. it illustrates that business in the creative industry is very popular with women. meanwhile, most business actors in the creative economy sector in indonesia are graduates from universities, reaching 76.36 percent. it indicates that businesses in the creative economy sector attract higher education graduates. it is understandable because businesses in this sector require the creativity of business people, and educational backgrounds provide broad insights for business owners in the creative economy sector. meanwhile, regarding age, the creative economy sector is dominated by those aged 3059 years, who reach 30 respondents or 54.55 percent. table 4. gender, education and age no.

creative economy sector, which reached 28 respondents or 50.91. it is inseparable from the background of pekanbaru city as a trading city, so city residents do not have many choices in spending the weekend except to enjoy various types of food provided by restaurants. so the culinary or restaurant sector has increased every year. the business that is the choice of business actors in the creative economy sector is advertising, which reaches 16.36 percent. a large number of enthusiasts in the advertising business is due to the increasing demand by business actors in pekanbaru, indonesia. however, most businesses in the creative economy sector are still dominated by microbusinesses, reaching 49.09 percent. meanwhile, the small business category in this study only reached 38.18 percent, and the medium category reached 12.73 percent. the business sector with the micro category in this study could absorb labor up to 80 percent, the minor category could absorb 12.64 percent of the workforce, and the medium category was 7.28 percent. it confirms that the micro business sector in indonesia is still the business sector mainly carried out by the community. . table 5 : business

(2021), trianto et al. (2021), and bongomin et al. al. (2017). ali et al. (2021) found that financial literacy and social influence are the most critical factors for creating islamic financial inclusion in indonesia. meanwhile, trianto et al. (2021) found that the determinants of financial inclusion in msmes in indonesia are social-cultural and marketing communication. at the same time, financial literacy has a positive but insignificant effect. in particular, bongomin et al. (2017) investigated all financial literacy components. they found that only financial attitude positively and significantly impacted financial inclusion for 400 poor households in 146 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 138-147 uganda. meanwhile, the results of this study show that there are two components of financial literacy, namely islamic financial awareness and islamic financial skills, which positively and significantly influence decisions in financing islamic banking. it indicates that each case's financial literacy component has a different effect. however, financial literacy has an essential role in creating financial inclusion. it indicates that business actors have financial intelligence, such as financial planning, budgeting, cash flow management, and credit. in a study by hilgert et al. (2003), financial literacy positively correlates with individual financial expertise. financial literacy is also crucial to saving, borrowing from banks, and investing (behrman, 2010). the results of this study show that business actors who have good financial skills can have a positive impact on their business performance. this research is in line with several previous researchers, such as esiebugie et al. (2018), usama and yusoff (2018), and alharbi et al. (2021). in a study conducted by esiebugie et al. (2018) in nigeria on the impact of financial literacy on the performance of small and medium enterprises (smes), 154 respondents found that financial knowledge and financial awareness had a positive and significant effect on company performance. usama and yusoff (2018) also found that financial knowledge, financial behavior, and attitude as components of financial literacy positively and significantly influence the performance of small and medium-sized companies in bauchi, nigeria. alharbi et al. (2021) also stated that financial attitude and awareness are essential in improving the performance of small and medium enterprises (smes) in saudi arabia. meanwhile, the results of this study found that islamic financial skills are the only financial literacy component that affects the performance of msmes in the creative economy sector. it also informs us that financial literacy affects the business performance of msmes in each sector and country. so the policies in each sector and country will also be different. however, these results provide a direction that every business actor needs to improve their financial literacy. it indicates that to improve company performance, entrepreneurs need to improve their ability to manage finances and make financial decisions such as investing, cash management, budgeting, and debt management. the results of this study also reveal that entrepreneurs' decisions to finance through islamic banks can positively improve their business performance, although the impact is not significant. these results are not in line with the research conducted by bongomin (2016), bongomin et al. (2018), and trianto et al. (2021). these results illustrate that the financing provided by islamic banking provides hope for entrepreneurs in the creative economy sector to continue to develop. the provision of broader access to the real sector, such as the creative economy sector, is expected to have a broader impact, including in creating islamic financial inclusion, boosting the performance of msmes as well as islamic banking stability, especially in musyarakah financing (widarjono & mardhiyah, 2022). 4. conclusion the creative economy sector is one sector that continues to get attention from various parties, including entrepreneurs, islamic banking, and also the government. the results of this study show that the decisions of entrepreneurs in the creative economy sector in financing islamic banking positively influence their performance. however, it has not had a significant impact. it certainly gives hope to the creative economy sector to continue to grow by making payments to islamic banking. for this reason, the author recommends that entrepreneurs in the creative economy sector increase the financing ceiling to have a bigger and more significant impact. on the one hand, islamic banking also needs to provide financing concessions so that entrepreneurs in the creative economy sector can access the financing schemes provided by islamic banking. we also recommend that entrepreneurs in the creative economy sector increase islamic financial literacy. especially islamic financial skills such as increasing the ability to manage islamic finances, the ability to invest islamically, and debt management because empirical facts show that islamic financial skills significantly influence business performance. however, this study has a international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 138-147 147 limitation, namely the small number of samples, so we recommend increasing the number for further research. acknowledgment we would like thanks to respondents who participated in this study. we also thank the reviewer for significant comments and suggestions to improve this paper. references abubakar, h.a.

industry in the banking industry that emerged in 1970. islamic banking has become a lucrative and prospective industry since the practice of islamic banking is not only in muslim countries but also in countries with muslim minorities such as the uk and the philippines. islamic banking is the most leading industry in the islamic finance industry. based on data from the islamic finance development report, the total assets of the finance industry amounted to us$ 2,875 billion in 2019, while the total assets of islamic banking were us$ 1,993 billion which is accounted for 69% of the total assets of the finance industry. the indonesian islamic banking industry is in the top 10 countries in islamic banking assets with a total asset of us$38 billion and based on the number of islamic banks it ranks number 4 with 34 islamic banks. indonesia has been practicing islamic banking since 1992, starting bank muamalat indonesia. the islamic banks have grown rapidly since the islamic banking law no. 21 of 2008 was passed by the government. the number of banks and assets experienced rapid growth. the number of islamic commercial banks in 2020 was 34 islamic commercial banks, consisting of 14 fully-pledged islamic banks and 20 islamic bank windows. total commercial banking assets were idr 593,948 trillion. based on their financial performance, the average profitability of islamic banks measured by returns on assets (roa) was 1.544%, which is above the threshold of 1.5% from 2010 to 2020. moreover, non-performing financing (npf) representing bad financing was 3,729, which is lower than the threshold of 5%. despite experiencing rapid development, the role of islamic banking in the national economy is small because their market share is relatively low, which is accounted for only 6% of the total banking industry. the banking industry, including islamic banking as a financial intermediary, is vulnerable to economic shocks such as the 1998 economic crisis. even though islamic banks can survive this economic crisis in that year, for instance, bank muamalat indonesia, they are still very vulnerable to economic shocks. as a new industry in national banking, many researchers are interested in analyzing the performance of the indonesian islamic banks. topics of islamic banking studies are various, but, in general, the topics of islamic banking research in indonesia focus on profit such as risfandy et al., (2017), sutrisno and widarjono (2018), risfandy (2018), octavio and soesetio 92019) and financing risk such as firmansyah (2015), havidz and setiawan (2015), setiawan and bagaskara (2016), widarjono and rudatin (2021). the factors used by researchers as determinants of islamic bank's profitability include bank characteristics, namely assets, capital, efficiency, financing risk, and macroeconomic conditions, namely gdp and exchange rates. the exchange rate is commonly applied as a macroeconomic condition because indonesia relies on imported raw materials for both domestic and export production. depreciation and appreciation thus greatly affect profits. the facts highlight that financing and assets have a positive effect but impaired financing has a negative effect on profits such as trinugroho et al. (2017), risfandy (2018), sutrisno and widarjono (2018). evidence also underlines that economic upturn positively connects but depreciation negatively influences islamic banks' profitability (widarjono, 2020a). moreover, profit is positively linked to intellectual capital which is measured with value added intellectual capital (octavio & soesetio, 2019). in addition to islamic commercial banks, regional islamic banks called islamic rural banks have also grown rapidly. the empirical study accomplished by warninda (2014) documents that profit-loss sharing (pls) and non-pls financing have a positive effect but international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 1-16 3 non-performing financing has a negative effect on profits. the macro variable that affects profit is the money supply. another study shows that the bank characteristics, namely assets and car, have a positive effect on the profitability of islamic rural banks, while the domestic output has a positive effect but inflation has a negative effect on the profitability of islamic rural banks (widarjono, anto, & fakhrunnas, 2021). furthermore, other studies show that the oligopolistic market structure in the islamic rural bank market has a positive effect on profits (widarjono, mifrahi, & perdana, 2020) apart from islamic banks' profitability, financing risk is a topic that is extensively studied in islamic banking. financing based on pls contracts such as mudarabah raises asymmetric information and moral hazard problems, which in turn increases impaired financing (kabir, worthington, & gupta, 2015). several studies report that impaired financing of islamic commercial banks is affected by car and operating efficiency to which high car lower npf but inefficient operating boots high npf (setiawan & bagaskara, 2016; setiawan & bagaskara, 2016). more significantly, due to low financing risk low, npf links to low concentrated financing (widarjono & rudatin, 2021). because of high npf, a number of studies have investigated islamic rural banks' financing risk. large asset and high equity are related to low npf (prastiwi & anik, 2020); (muhammad, suluki, & nugraheni, 2020). furthermore, low impaired financing is associated with diversified income (muhammad, anto, & fakhrunnas, 2020). however, one of the topics that need to be explored more deeply is the stability of islamic banks in indonesia. research on the stability of islamic banks is an interesting topic and rare. islamic banks with a small market share must compete with conventional banks. accordingly, the stability of islamic banks is very vulnerable in the indonesian banking industry. indeed, the stability of islamic banks also depends on the type of financing (widarjono & rudatin, 2021). however, in practice, non-pls financing such as murabahah is still the dominant financing in indonesian islamic banking. the ratios of pls and non-pls financing to total financing are 48% and 52% in 2020, respectively. therefore, it is important to investigate the role of pls financing on the stability of islamic banks. this study investigates the role of pls financing on the stability of islamic banks in indonesia. pls financing consists of mudarabah and musharakah, which is the core business of islamic banking (azmat, skully, & brown, 2015). this study measures the stability of islamic banks using the z-score. several previous studies employ the z-altman score to analyze the stability of indonesian islamic banks such as effendi (2017) and bawono and setyaningrum, 2018). the application of z-score in many studies could predict the failure of islamic banks well (čihák & hesse, 2010; beck, demirgüç-kunt, & merrouche, 2013). in addition, numerous previous studies employ z-score but using total financing without distinguishing between pls and non-pls financing in determining the stability of islamic banks such as widarjono (2020b) and (kasri & azzahra, 2020). this paper tries to fill the existing gap by analyzing the role of pls financing as the core business of islamic banks towards the stability of islamic banks in indonesia by using aggregate data of all islamic banks. 2. methods we investigate the extent to which pls financing, along with some control variables, influences the stability of islamic banks in indonesia. the control variables are both bank characteristics and macroeconomic conditions. the bank characteristics are capital, impaired financing, operating efficiency, domestic output, and exchange rate. our study employs 4 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 1-16 aggregate data from january 2010 to december 2019. we apply the regression method to investigate the stability of indonesian islamic banks following the prior empirical studies accomplished by widarjono (2018) and kasri and azzahra (2020) as : (1) the dependent variable is z-score to measures stability. the explanatory variables are pls financing, capital adequacy ratio (car), non-performing financing (npf), expense-torevenue ratio (err), industrial product index (ipi), and exchange rate (exc). z-score is calculated using the following formula (abedifar, molyneux, & tarazi, 2013 ; hassan, khan, & paltrinieri, 2019): (2) where sd(roa) is the standard deviation of roa. z-score indicates islamic bank’s return drop below its average value to exhaust equity and leads to the bank's insolvency. hence, a low z-score indicates an unstable bank and a high z-score represents a stable bank. pls is profit and loss sharing financing measuring equity financing. pls is the ratio of pls financing to total financing (%). the function of pls financing on islamic bank's stability is indecisive. azmat, skully, and brown (2015) argue that pls financing contracts are subject to asymmetric information and moral hazard. entrepreneurs are likely deceitful in showing their financial reports and are less effort to carry out their business. on the contrary, entrepreneurs may have more motivation in running their business to make a high profit due to the fairness of pls financing (risfandy, 2018). for that reason, islamic bank's stability is positively or negatively linked to pls financing. car is a capital adequacy ratio (%) to cover the risk of loss that may be faced by the islamic bank. the capital adequacy ratio shows the extent to which the bank contains financing risks which are financed by third-party funds. the higher the capital adequacy ratio is the more the bank's ability to bear the risk of any risky financing and productive assets (hamid, 2017). if the value of the capital adequacy ratio is high, the bank can finance operational activities and provide any financing to customers. hence, car positively affect islamic bank' stability. one measure of the islamic bank's efficiency, which is widely applied, is operating efficiency. operating efficiency is the expense-to-revenue ratio (%). the expense-to-revenue ratio (err) measures how much it spends to produce revenue per unit (trinugroho, agusman, & tarazi, 2014). low err shows that the expense to generate per unit of revenue is low and vice versa. consequently, low err shows higher operating efficiency but high err represents lower operating efficiency. low err encourage islamic banks to create high margin and, in turn, generate high profits (trinugroho, risfandy, & ariefianto, 2018). therefore, we expect err to negatively influence islamic bank's stability. any islamic bank persistently encounters the risk of financing in the form of bad financing. the measure of financing risk that is commonly used is the ratio of nonperforming financing (npf) to total financing. non-performing financing is the ratio of bad financing to total financing (%). the higher the nfp implies the greater default while impaired financing is difficult to recover. low npf shows the bank's ability to generate profits is high because islamic bank is not burdened with previous non-performing financing (ahamed, 2017; widarjono, 2020b). accordingly, we expect npf has a negative impact on international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 1-16 5 the islamic bank's stability. gdp measures the size of national output which consists of the production of goods and services. a rising in the national output indicates improving economic conditions due to an increase in the production of goods and services and further increases income. on the other hand, a fall in the national output shows worsening economic conditions due to falling in goods and service productions and income. output upturn will thus increase profits and output downturn will decrease profit (widarjono, 2018). due to the unavailability of monthly gdp, this study utilizes the industrial production index (ipi). this study hypothesizes ipi positively affects the islamic bank's stability. indonesia is a country with an open economy and domestic production depends on imported raw materials. thus, the exchange rate steadily affects the domestic economy. depreciation of the rupiah against the us$ causes domestic prices to increase due to the high cost of imported raw materials. high inflation causes the ability of islamic banks to generate profits to decrease. on the other hand, an appreciation lowers prices of imported goods and, in turn, encourages an increase in islamic bank's profits due to an increase in domestic output and income. hence, the exchange rate negatively affects the islamic bank's stability. the autoregressive distributed model (ardl) is applied due to two advantages. first of all, all variables do not need to be stationary at the same level. second, ardl can explore not only short-run conditions but also long-run conditions. the equation (1) can be expressed as the ardl model as (3) where is the first difference (lag), are the short-run dynamic condition, and are the long-run condition. finally, when co integration exists, the error correction model of the ardl model can be written as (4) where is lag of error and the coefficient is the adjustment pace. the ardl model is estimated in several steps. the first step is the stationary test to check the integration order of variables. our paper utilizes the unit root test from philipsperron (pp) and augmented dickey-fuller (adf). the second step is the estimation of the ardl model. the main issue of the ardl model is to determine the length of the lag. this paper employs two approaches, namely schwarz criterion (sc) and akaike information criterion (aic) to produce an unbiased estimation. the co integration test is the third step to determine the long-run relationship between the variables being studied following the bound testing approach (pesaran, shin, & smith, 2001). the null hypothesis of no co 6 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 1-16 integration is . if co integration is found, the next step is to estimate the ecm model. estimation of the long-run model to obtain the long-term coefficient is the last step of the ardl model. 3. results and discussion baseline results table 1 presents descriptive statistics of variables. the mean z-score as the dependent variable is 38.77% with a standard deviation of 5.25, meaning that the z-score is relatively stable under the period of study. the average pls as the main explanatory variable is 35.18 with a maximum value of 48.22 and a minimum value of 26.58. this fact indicates that non-pls financing is still the dominant type of financing in islamic banking. moving to bank control variables, the average car is 16.25% which is higher than the 15% threshold, the average bad financing (npf) is 3.78% which is lower than the 5% threshold and the mean operating efficiency level (err) is 83.81%. for macroeconomic control variables, the average ipi is 123.38 while the mean exchange rate of the rupiah against the dollar is 11,803. figure 1 describes the relationship between z-score and pls financing, indicating co-movement between pls financing and z-score. the coefficient correlation between z-score and pls is 0.6284, implying a strong positive association between them. table 1 descriptive statistics

business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 1-16 7 before estimating the ardl, we test the stationarity of the data with a unit-root test. the unit-root test is needed to ensure that no variables are integrated into the second difference so that the ardl model can be applied and the co integration test results are valid. the results of the unit-root test from pp and adf are shown in table 2. the car, err, and lipi are stationary at the level while the remaining variables are stationary at the first difference. the results of this unit-root test confirm that no stationarity in the second difference is found for each variable so that the ardl model and the co integration test through the bound testing approach are valid. table 2. unit root test level difference pp adf pp adf variable

what method we use to select optimum lag. in order to get robust results for optimum lag, schwarz criterion (sc) and akaike information criterion (aic) and are applied. table 3 provides the results of the ardl model. the sc technique results in ardl (1,0,2,0,0,0,0) and the aic technique generates ardl (1,0,2,0,0,0,0). this study also tries hannan-quinn criterion (hq) method but the results are exactly the same. both sc and aic techniques pass heteroskedasticity test through autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (arch) test and the serial correlation through lagrange multiplier (lm)

ec(-1) as one of the independent variables. variable ec(-1) is negative and significant, meaning that ecm-ardl is valid. the variable ec(-1) can correct existing errors at a speed of 0.4871 every

stability is debatable. pls financings consist of musharakah and mudharabah. theoretically, both financing contracts create benefits for the bank and the customer because the losses and profits from the business are shared according to the their agreement. pls financing provides a strong impetus for entrepreneurs to run their business well with the assumption that the entrepreneurs are truthful for mudharabah financing (risfandy, 2018). if these conditions are fulfilled, this mudharabah financing will encourage the profits and stability of islamic banks. however, mudharabah financing can also cause problems because it depends on the skill of the entrepreneur in carrying out the project and is subject to moral hazards and asymmetric information. previous research has shown that pls financing can boost profitability and stability for large islamic banks because large banks have the skills to manage projects in musharakah financing and monitors them well in mudharabah financing (čihák & hesse, 2010). large banks are able to generate high profits and subsequently maintain stability because they are able to increase business efficiency due to economies of scale (ibrahim & rizvi, 2017). in addition, large banks with market power are able to determine high margins, thereby increasing profit and stability. evidence also highlights that most of the customers of islamic banks in indonesia are medium and small enterprises. pls financing gives them flexibility in terms of financing repayments rather than fixed costs such as murabahah (risfandy, 2018). now we turn to bank-specific variables as control variables. car has a positive effect on islamic banks' stability. the financial service authority has set a minimum car of 8%. car 10 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 1-16 serves to protect third part funds because car protects customers from unanticipated losses. a high car can make a substantial contribution to profitability and stability. samail et al. (2018) indicate that car positively links to the profitability and stability of islamic banks in malaysia. other studies also show that car has a positive effect on the profitability and stability of islamic banks in indonesia (trinugroho et al., 2017 ; widarjono, 2020b). bad financing is negative but does not affect stability because impaired financing is manageable, which is below the maximum threshold of 5%. npf has reached above 5% only four times in the study period. the level of operating inefficiency has a negative effect on profitability and stability. the low efficient rate causes islamic banks to fail to set high margins so that the profit is not optimal (trinugroho, risfandy, & ariefianto, 2018) the last investigation is the control variable from external conditions, namely macroeconomic conditions. good macroeconomic conditions through economic growth and appreciation of the rupiah will boost the profitability and stability of islamic banks. economic upturn increases income and in turn can enhance profitability and stability. this research is in line with the case of islamic banks in malaysia (abduh & alias, 2014) and indonesian islamic banks with panel regression (trinugroho et al., 2017). the exchange rate, through the theory of the exchange rate pass-through, raises domestic prices as the domestic currency depreciates (kassi et al., 2019). thus, depreciation increases inflation and accordingly decreases profitability and stability. evidence shows that inflation reduces the performance of islamic banks in malaysia (abduh & alias, 2014). further investigation pls financing consists of two, namely musharakah and mudharabah. in the previous discussion, we did not distinguish between those two financings. both financings are part of the pls financing contract but both are slightly different. musharakah is a type of financing where banks and entrepreneurs provide funds to run a project, while mudharabah is a type of financing where all projects are funded by banks and entrepreneurs run the project. therefore, this paper wants to find out which form of pls financing drives the profitability and stability of islamic banks. musharakah (mus) is the ratio of musharakah financing to total financing (%) and mudharabah financing is the ratio of mudarabah financing to total financing (%). the results of the ardl model are exhibited in table 6-8. table 6 presents the results of ardl (1,0,0,2,0,0) with the sc method and ardl (6, 3,0,3,2,0,5) with the aic method. both approaches pass the heteroscedasticity and serial correlation tests. cointegration occurs in the sc method while the aic method produces indecision. furthermore, table 7 displays the ecm-ardl model. the variable ec(-1) is negative and significant, meaning that the sc and aic methods produce a valid estimate of the ecm-ardl model. in addition, the coefficient of ec(-1), which is the speed of adjustment to long-run equilibrium, is not slightly different. out paper emphasizes the long-run coefficient by focusing on musharakah and mudarabah financing. the results are shown in table 8. musharakah financing has a positive effect on the stability of islamic banks using the sc and aic methods. musharakah financing can increase profits and stability since this type of financing can be managed properly because both parties are responsible for the managed project (risfandy, 2018). a study by warninda (2014) on islamic rural banks also shows that musharakah financing can increase the profitability of islamic banks. on the other hand, mudarabah financing has a negative effect on stability using the aic method. mudarabah financing is subject to moral hazards international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 1-16 11 and asymmetric information (azmat, skully, & brown, 2015). mudarabah financing has led to an increase in non-performing financing and further reduces the profitability and stability of islamic banks (kabir, worthington, & gupta, 2015). while the car has a positive effect and npf has a negative effect on the stability of islamic banks. in addition, depreciation reduces the stability of islamic banks. table 6 ardl: musharakah and mudarabah sc aic variable coefficient t-statistic coefficient t-statistic c 25.2600** 2.1299 45.3382*** 3.0493 zscore(-1) 0.5039*** 6.3510 0.5421*** 5.3689

bank financing is to avoid financing with a fixed cost. this paper analyzes the role of pls financing which consists of musharakah and mudarabah financing on the stability of islamic banks. the stability of islamic banks is measured using the z-score. our finding shows that pls financing strengthens the stability of islamic banks. more particularity, musharakah financing enhances stability but mudarabah financing diminishes stability. in addition, car also fortifies stability while inefficiency weakens stability. economic expansion and depreciation obviously reinforce islamic bank's stability. so far, islamic banks in indonesia have focused more on murabahah financing with fixed costs like conventional banks. there are several important implications. first, islamic banks have to diversify their financing contracts. second, islamic banks should focus on profit-sharing financing such as musharakah. indeed, musharakah results in impartial financing because the risks are shared with both parties. third, mudarabah deteriorated stability but mudarabah financing is also another alternative because other studies have shown that musharakah and mudarabah financing provide the same financing risk (warninda, ekaputra, & rokhim, 2019). the main key in mudarabah financing is the ability of islamic banks to monitor customer behavior in running their business. this study, however, uses aggregated data to conceal individual islamic bank's behavior. accordingly, regression panel data may be the agenda for the next study. 14 international journal of islamic business and economics

ottoman period iskandar dokuz eylül university, turkey iskandar.lon@gmail.com abstract this paper discussed the implementation and management of cash waqf during the ottoman empire. during the reign, waqf has become an instrument that is very successfully implemented in various sectors such as religion, education, social, and health. waqf assets continued to increase and not only provided facilities for public but also assisted people who need capital to do business. nazir as waqf institution (individual or institution waqf manager) have administered waqf with different schemes, such as providing loans in the form of qard hasan, mudharabah, bai’ul-inna, and bidaa. management waqf institutionally was evaluated by the government in 1823, this evaluation led to the reformation of waqf institution and founded the new waqf institution which was known as evkaf-i hümayun nezareti. this institution was the ottoman sovereign wealth fund which functioned to manage all waqf assets. all waqf assets, as well as cash waqf, were managed by this institution with various schemes that are not much different from what has been done before. however, in this period the management of cash waqf was only carried out by this institution as the authority for managing waqf assets. the management of waqf assets under this institution lasted until the end of the ottoman turkish government. the establishment of cash waqf institutions in the ottoman empire has shown an important step that has been taken to ensure the effectiveness of cash waqf development. cash waqf management in the ottoman empire has proof waqf as islamic social finance in islamic economic theory shown a significant contribution to society and the ottoman government. international journal of islamic business and

journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 37-51 1. introduction throughout the history of islamic civilization from the time of prophet muhammad pbuh, era of sahaba (companions of the prophet muhammad) to the last islamic caliphate, the ottoman empire, waqf is an inalienable charitable endowment under islamic law that have a great impact on the social and economic development of the ummah (bulut & korkut, 2016). although at a certain time waqf is seen as less prominent in society, it does not mean that waqf does not have a social impact on that time, but there is no record or written evidence that can be used as a reference to be claimed as waqf assets. among the companions of the prophet muhammad (sahaba), waqf innitially has been practiced by umar ibn al-khattab by endowing property obtained from spoils of war (ghanīmah). in addition, among the other sahaba who are also known munificent and often giving waqf was uthman ibn affan and 'abd al-rahman ibn 'awf. the form of waqf in the era of sahaba varied, such as date palm gardens, war equipment, wells, etc. during the reign of the umayyad and abbasid dynasties, waqf was also practiced by benefactors at that time. waqf assets at that time were not only used to help the needy and poor but also for capital in providing public facilities such as the construction of educational institutions, libraries, and others. from this waqf property, the allocation is also used to pay the salaries of his staff and other needs (nurhayati, 2008). during the ottoman empire, waqf has become a strong tradition in society. the waqf tradition is inseparable from the tradition brought by islamic teachings which also became a belief of the people at that time. however, non-muslims were also free to live in the ottoman lands without discrimination and could enjoy the benefits of the waqf property as well. in general, all people who live in the ottoman territory have the same rights which were called "millet” or the people of ottomans. thus, their right to perform waqf and get benefit from the waqf property is also permitted under certain conditions (kazancioglu, 2016). at the beginning of the ottoman rule, the waqf tradition in society of ottoman empire was generally carried out by the sultan, the sultan's relatives, and the nobility. this is because they are the ones who have excessive wealth then endow their wealth to the people who need it in their community. most of the waqfs established for the community are in the form of building schools, mosques, providing water kiosks (sebil), hostels or accommodation for travelers, hamams, etc (özger, 2009, bayartan, 2008, iskandar, 2020). the waqfs has spread and grown impressively. as a result, the management of waqf assets has developed very quickly and this has made mutawalli as the manager of wakaf institutions to manage waqf assets more organized. the sultan and governors at that time had expanded the scope of waqf which previously only consisted of waqf in the form of immovable goods such as buildings and land, then developed so that the community could also donate immovable assets such as agricultural equipment, books, and cash (money) (baqutayan et al., 2018). therefore, cash waqf has become a model of waqf that played an important role in development at that time. waqf institutions that have been formed not only provide services for the welfare of the community but also as institutions that manage finances for the country's economic growth (baqutayan et al., 2018; halaçoglu, 1991). according to çizakça (2006) waqf institution during the ottoman empire was a very important institution in social and economic development. most of the expenditure of waqf property was allocated for education, health, and religion. as it is known that cash waqf during the ottoman empire had a great impact on society. the success of implementation cash waqf during the ottoman period was certainly international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 37-51 39 accompanied by good financial management. however, discussion about the management of cash waqf during the ottoman period was hardly found. therefore, this study will focus on discussing how the implementation and management of cash waqf in the ottoman era. the ottoman empire which has been in power for approximately 700 years has left a very interesting historical record to study and can be an experience for the management of cash waqf today. the accomplishment of the ottoman empire had implemented cash waqf which at first was only as a religious teaching had succeeded making waqf as social finance instrument that can be used not only for the development poor people but also develop economy of the ottoman empire. this success also motivated author to dig deeper into the management of cash waqf model that was applied during the ottoman empire (iskandar, 2020). at the beginning of the establishment of ottoman empire, waqf has been known as multidimensional instrument composing of economic, social, and religious aspects of human life. the impact generated by the utilization of waqf property can be felt directly by the beneficiaries, such as the purpose of building madrasas for education, hospitals for healthcare, mosques for religion and other facilities to meet sosial need (çizakca, 1998, şimşek, 1986, özger, 2009, türkoğlu, 2013). those were only some important aspects in the society which were provided through waqf (kudat & ceyhan, 2020). waqf in the ottoman empire has played a supreme role in social life of its people. this can be seen from the increase in waqf assets and the expansion of the scope of waqf which previously could only establish waqaf in forn of land and building so that later they could perform waqf in the form of money or also known as cash waqf. cash waqf in the ottoman period had originally been practiced since the time of sultan orhan gazi, since then cash waqf has continued to grow so that it is not only used as a social activity that can help the community but also an income for the state (iskandar, 2020, dumlu, 2015). according to bulut & korkut (2019b) cash waqf in the ottoman empire has functioned as social charity and financial needs of society. these two functions have solved social problems that occurred in the society. the existence of cash waqf has also created a financial institution that has become a pioneer of interest-free finance. in addition, several financing models carried out through cash waqf such as mudharabah and qard hasan have been proven to help people who need capital to run their businesses by not taking interestbearing loans. kudat & ceyhan (2020) acknowledged that cash waqfs were distinctive philantropic institutions in islamic history. they claimed three main management principles of cash waqfs had provided them an institutional strength to have sustainable philanthropy. first, they were bounded to the religious rules and laws, which provided them a holy position in the eyes of muslims. second, cash waqfs provided a more flexible and wider application area for charitable works. third, religious motive of endowing cash existed for contributing to the societal well-being. it meant, cash waqfs had the purpose of providing honorable life standards to people and advancing their living conditions in economic, social, physical ways. while cızakca (2006) claimed that the main purpose of cash waqf in islamic history were gaining profit and protecting the accumulation of capital. however, his view about this has brought to a debate among scholars. the management of waqf property in the ottoman period also underwent changes in the management of the institution or structural management. the management of waqf property was initially managed by mutawali who was registered with the local qadi (iskandar, 2020). then in 1826, waqf property began to be managed in a more structured 40 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 37-51 manner under one institution known as evkâf-ı hümayun nezâreti. this institution was established by sultan mahmud for the sole administration of all waqf property distributed belonging to the sultans and their relatives (öztürk, 1985, hançer, 2019), özsaraç, (2019). the very prominent management of waqf assets that has been implemented in the ottoman period is the existence of an excellent record that was conducted when performing waqf. so what can be concluded from the existing literature that accounting management has been applied by waqf institutions at that time (demirhan, susmuş & gönen, 2012). gürsoy (2018) has also discussed the management of waqf money by conducting an analysis of risk management. if we examine the study further, the focus of the study is more focused on financial management strategy and risk management. in addition, his study found that cash waqf management and risk management running in parallel. at the end of his study, he suggested that there is a need for further analysis of waqf management in other service areas such as social work, education, and transportation. 2. method this study used qualitative research method with the historical approach. the historical approach is the most suitable method for revealing historical facts that occurred from the existing evidence, this approach is considered the most appropriate to find out how the application of cash waqf during the ottoman period (bucheli & wadhwani (eds.), 2014). the data collection carried out in this study by using library research from secondary data. the secondary data from books, articles, research results, website, and turkish directorate general of foundation (vgm) archives that related to the topic of cash waqf within the ottoman period has been employed to identify the utilization of cash waqf at that moment. afterwards the data will be analyzed to determine the implementation of cash waqf during the ottoman empire, in this case to obtain the management and the implementation of cash waqf. this finding is expected to be a reference for future researchers as well as comparisons or experiences from the past to current policy makers in determining the appropriate model for management cash waqf in this modern era. 3. result and discussion waqf in ottoman empire period the ottoman empire which ruled asia, europe, and africa was a government with the most advanced civilization in the 14th century. the power possessed is not only in terms of territorial land, but also in terms of military, economic and strong influence compared to other kingdoms. this atmosphere allows them to control a lot of land, buildings that has on it (imber, 2019). several buildings and land in several areas have been donated by the sultan who was in power at that time for the benefit of the ottoman people. the first waqf of the ottoman empire was the establishment of a madrasa in iznik by orhan gazi as an educational institution that could provide education for people who wanted to study. davud-i kayseri was the first teacher at the school who later became head of the same madrasa. davud-i kayseri is also known as a religious scholar, philosopher, and sufi at the beginning of the founding of the ottoman empire (bayartan, 2008, sezer & sannav, 2018, bulut & korkut, 2019). the ottoman government has seen that waqf has a very large impact on society, the ottoman sultan then took policy steps to expand the scope of waqf to other sectors that provide more benefits to the community, such as: waterways, sidewalks as an infrastructure service, madrasahs, schools, kulliyahs, libraries as an educational service, hospitals, clinics, international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 37-51 41 patients as a health service, mosques, masjids, lodges as a religious service and hans, caravansaries, bazaars as a commercial service (peri, 1992, bulut & korkut, 2019, iskandar, 2020). as explained in the literature review, in the early 16th century the application of cash waqf was debated among ottoman’s islamic scholars. differences in views on cash waqf had occurred among the scholars of the madhab before the ottoman era, but there was no significant difference among the scholars of that time. some mazhab scholars allow cash waqf with several provisions, among the scholars who allow cash waqf are imam hanafi, imam muhammad syaibani, and abu yusuf. therefore, because the official school of thought during the ottoman empire was the hanafi school, it was permissible to make waqf in the form of money or the like (aslan, 1998, iskandar, 2020). although there was a debate among the ottoman scholars, this did not really affect the people's desire to continue to do cash waqf. this may be because they adhered to the hanafi school which was the official school at that time. waqf assets are not only spread in the center of the capital, but also develop to small towns in the ottoman territory (özger, 2009). the facilities and infrastructure needed by the community such as buildings, markets, mosques, hospitals, schools, libraries, roads, waterways, hammams (bath houses) and others have been built using cash waqf assets. the management of waqf assets with a good system has made development during the ottoman empire continue to grow so rapidly. cash waqf during the ottoman empire had strict procedures that had to be completed with complete records. the recording of waqf is called waqfiyah. a person or several people can perform cash waqf by registering with the sharia court accompanied by waqfiyah. then the sharia court will provide instructions on the formation of cash waqf (iskandar, 2020). debating on the establishment cash waqf the establishment of cash waqf in the ottoman empire period was not much different from the nature form of waqf (i.e waqf in the form of land or building). in this circumtances the only difference is the object of waqf, land and buildings are categorized as immovable waqf property while money is categorized as movable waqf property. the process of establishing a cash waqf was derived from the ijtihad issued by islamic scholars at that time in the form of fatwa. the fatwa has stated that cash waqf is permissible and applicable to be practiced by the people of ottoman empire. this ulema's fatwa also caused cash waqf to develop and be practiced by the people at that time (bulut & korkut, 2016). bulut, & korkut (2019a) mentioned before the ottoman period there were no records or evidence of cash waqf found. this can be an assumption that cash waqf has not been practiced before. according to historical evidence that the practice of cash waqf during the ottoman period can be known from wakfiyah (waqf property records) which have been found in waqf archives that are still stored today (see figure 1.). all waqf assets during the ottoman period were recorded by the court in waqfiyah and became a reference document for operating cash waqf. therefore, the evidence of cash waqf found in the wakfiyah records that exist during the ottoman period proves that cash waqf has been practiced. however, some of these records have no definite date when the cash waqf was established. according to various literatures cash waqf in the ottoman empire have been found at the beginning of the reign of the ottoman sultanate (early 15th century) (korkut, 2014, mandaville, 1979). cash waqf was initially allowed when institution seyhulislam as association of islamic scholars issued the fatwa regarding the permissibility of cash waqf 42 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 37-51 (atar, 2020). in 1425, scholars under institution seyhulislam such as: molla fenâri, fahreddin-i acemi, molla abdülkerim efendi, and molla hüsrev molla gürâni issued a joint fatwa allowing cash waqf. all the scholars at the time were unanimous on this fatwa. so, there is almost no debate that occurs among scholars about the permissibility of cash waqf (özcan, 1998, şimşek, 1985). the fatwa on the permissibility of cash waqf became an enlightenment on the economic activities of the ottoman empire. because the fatwa has opened the way to provide credit to people in need by not using interest. the application of cash waqf also became a period in which the ottoman government implemented a borrowing or credit system by not taking interest but using qard hasan (turkoglu, 2013, sannav & sezer, 2018). the establishment of cash waqf was initially able to run smoothly for approximately 120 years after the issuance of a fatwa on the permissibility of cash waqf by scholars under the institution seyhulislam. then in the 16th century debate began to occur among ottoman turkish scholars. even the debate that occurred at that time could be said to be very serious which made both parties defend their respective arguments (özcan, 1998, şimşek, 1985, çızarça, 1995, güney, 2019). the fierce debate took place between ebusuud efendi (d. 1574) and civizade muhyiddin mehmet efendi (d. 1547). ebusuud efendi's opinion on cash waqf has followed the opinion of the imam muhammad from the hanafi school and ibn shihab az-zuhri. according to ebusuud, cash waqf can be classified as waqf of movable property and some of islamic scholars including imam hanafi agree and permissible to perform waqf by using movable property such as: agricultural equipment, books, money, etc. although some of the scholars set the conditions for movable waqf. in addition, according to ebussuud, the practice of cash waqf is based on the opinion of imam muhammad who made local customs (‘adat) or customary usage (‘urf) as the basic criteria in performing cash waqf (okur, 2005). ebusuud efendi's opinion was not accepted by civizade muhyiddin mehmet efendi. the reason expressed by ebusuud follows the opinion of imam muhammad which states that if it is customary usage (‘urf) to perform waqf in some places using money then the cash waqf is permissible, because it is in accordance with the rules of islamic law which considered “urf” or customs as a legal method in producing a law. according to civizade the reason given by ebusuud is very fragile. because according to him, to make custom as proof of the argument, there must be a mujtahid who lived at that time. therefore, according to him, the customs and traditions used by ebusuud and imam muhammad as evidence of the arguments used for cash waqf must be reviewed. however, civizade does not deny that customs and traditions can be used as evidence or arguments by mujtahids in making decisions of a law (okur, 2005, bayram, 2019, güney, 2019). in 1545, ebusuud efendi was dismissed from the membership of institution seyhulislam and replaced by civizade. after civizade was appointed as a member of the fatwa-giver in seyhulislam, he issued a new fatwa prohibiting the practice of cash waqf. the issuance of fatwa from civizade has also requested sultan sulaiman to issue a law prohibiting the practice of cash waqf. thus, a new law was enacted that officially forbade cash waqf to to be implemented in the ottoman territory. this decision made sofyalı bali efendi (d.1552) wha was aslo an islamic scholar at that time and supported the implementation of cash waqf by sending a letter to sultan sulaiman al-kanuni requesting to allow cash waqf back (gel, 2020). bali efendi in his letter emphasized that cash waqf has great benefits for the people and if it is prohibited it will cause great losses (okur, 2005). thereafter civizade died, the sultan instructed the islamic scholars to review the fatwa international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 37-51 43 prohibiting cash waqf. the scholars at that time made a joint decree to abolish the ban of cash waqf. in the month of rabiul awal 955 h/1548 ad, the law prohibiting cash waqf was officially revoked and the fatwa on the permissibility of cash waqf was returned as decreed by ebusuud efendi. this decision was acceptable to most scholars at the time (özcan, 1998). after the issuance new fatwa, the cash waqfs became quite widespread. it spread extensively to the europian regions and anatolian regions of ottoman empire. the development of cash waqf was also made the ottoman economy increased sharply. these developments also have an impact on entrepreneurs and traders who need capital. with the cash waqf, they can get waqf funds to run their business. the income from the cash waqf that was operated by using islamic methods, such as mudaraba, qard hasan, and ijarah. it was spent in the direction of the waqf purposes and according to the wishes of the wakif (pamuk, 2012, p.90). operations and administrations of cash waqf since the first-time cash waqf was practiced in the ottoman period in the early twentieth century until the second practice after the lifting of the prohibition on cash waqf, this practice continues to increase and become a culture that is practiced among the community. this shows that cash waqf is not only able to provide benefits to the community, but it has also helped people who need business capital to use waqf money as loan capital. the implementation of cash waqf was also known in the ottoman period as the beginning of the implementation of an interest-free loan system (turkoglu, 2013, bulut & korkut, 2016). the collected cash waqf is operated in several forms or models in accordance with the provisions of islamic law. among the scheme models used in developing cash waqf assets are by providing loans in the form of qard hasan, capital loans with mudharabah contracts, and selling goods using waqf money and taking a small profit using murabahah contracts, as well as bidaa. according to dönduren (2008), the most widely used operating model is the mudharabah contract with an agreement of 10-15% per year profit. operating cash waqf assets using mudharabah contracts was given by many large traders who traded not only within the territory of the ottoman empire but also outside the country. (döndüren, 2008, turkoğlu, 2013). qard hasan loans were mostly given to lower middle-income people who need capital to do business or for other purposes. this qard hasan loan is usually given to the poor without taking any profit of the loan. to get a qard hasan loan, a borrower will go to a mutawalli who administered of cash waqf by bringing a guarantor. afterward the borrower must also meet the qualifications specified in the wakfiyyah. if all the necessary requirements are met then the mutawalli will prepare registration form of records in the form of wakfiyyah to be registered to the kadi/judge (türkoğlu, 2013). this practice was also widely practiced during the ottoman empire to help its people in need of loans. another form of cash waqf operation that was also well known and important that has been practiced during the ottoman empire was in the form of mu’âmele-i şer’iyye. this practice was carried out by the ottoman government to produce and get benefit from cash waqf and to avoid the practice of usury. mu’âmele-i şer’iyye was also known as mu'amele or murabah-i mer'iyye. in some literature it is also known as "murabaha". the profit obtained from mu'âmele-i er'iyye is called "ribah" and a business that can bring profit is called “istirbah” (akgündüz, 1996). according to özcan (2003) this practice was one of the most chosen scheme by those who need a loan from a cash waqf fund. 44 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 37-51 apart from the debates of the scholars about the permissible of this contract, what we want to emphasize here is that mu'âmele-i er'iyye is one of the operations or methods of cash waqf used during the ottoman empire. even based on several sources, it has been stated that this practice also dominates the practice of cash waqf that was practiced at that time. management of cash waqf in the ottoman empire obviously can be seen from registering form (vakfiyye) which is registered at the time of establising waqf. toraman, tunçsiper & yilmaz (2007) mentioned that the register of a typical cash waqf contains some information regarding the establishment of waqf. generally, the information recorded in the vakfiyye is name of the waqif (waqf founder), purpose of waqf, the address where the waqf property is registered, the name of the waqf manager or nazir, period covered by the cencus, and original capital of the cash waqf. in addition, in some vakfiyye also containts some additional information regarding the report of usage of cash waqf such as the balance of the new capital thus formed, the return of the investment of the cash waqf capital at the end of the year, the purpose for which the annual return was designated, names of the borrowers, amount of borrowing, address of borrowers, affiliation of borrowers and gender of borrowers. principally, the management of cash waqf during the ottoman period was generally the same as recommended in islamic teachings. waqf property managed by a person appointed by the person who is waqf (wakif) or appointed by a judge. in islamic law, the person who manages the waqf property is called "wilayat". in law during the ottoman period, the term tauliyah was used, which is a term from the same root as the word wilayat. wilayat is a general term used for a person who is a wali/representative in the management of waqf property. islamic jurists, who consider that the operation of waqf usually carried out by competent state bodies or government, therefore they use the term wilayat which has a broader scope. meanwhile, for people who administer waqf and maintain waqf custody, they are called mutawalli, nazir, or kayyim. these three words principally have the same meaning, however in discussing the issue of waqf every mazhab often uses certain words that refer to a person who administer waqf. for instance, the word nazir is widely used by the syafii and maliki sects, the word mutawalli is widely used by the hanafi and hanbali sects. while the word kayyim is rarely used by all sects, but only used in a few issues of waqf (akgündüz, 1996). in explaining the management and administration of waqf during the ottoman period, we divide it into two periods, firstly the classical period and secondly the reform period. the classical period is the period from the establishment and implementation of cash waqf from 1425 to 1826. while the reform period is after 1826 until the end of the ottoman empire (1922). before the reform of the waqf institution (1425-1826) in the early stages of the permissibility of cash waqf, the management of cash waqf was no different from the management of waqf in general. cash waqf have been administered in accordance with the wishes of the wakif. if a person who wants to establish waqf must be able to meet the requirements as wakif and then appoint someone to manage the waqf property. çiftçi (2004) in his paper mentioned that a person who wants to perform cash waqf must meet the requirements such as: akıl (a person of sound mind), baligh (mature), and independent (not a slave). afterward waqif should prepare wakfiyah (waqf records). in the wakfiyah, it must be clearly stated the purpose of the waqf, how much money will be international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 37-51 45 donated, special terms or conditions who will manage the assets and then it must be submitted to the mutawali. after that, the wakif and mutawalli went to the qadi to get approval to establish cash waqf. the conditions for the establishment of waqf were regulated in a government regulation at that time called the "nizamname". the qadi will then check all the conditions that have been determined and if all of them have been fulfilled then the qadi will ask the wakif to prove that the property belongs to him and make a pledge of the waqf contract (yediyıldız, 2003). after completing the waqf pledge, the wakif submits the money as waqf assets to the mutawalli. mutawalli who is responsible managing the cash waqf assets will manage it according to the wishes of the wakif as recorded in the wakfiyyah. all mutawalli’s duties related to waqf assets must be administered with a mandate accordingly. for example, mutawalli must control the activities of the waqf property, pay or give salaries to officers who carry out the waqf property and must take preventive measures to save the waqf property from destruction (çiftçi, 2004). during this period all waqf assets was taken care of by mutawalli who consisted of individuals and institutions. yayla (2011) indicated that in this era the waqf founder has given full authority to the mutawalli to manage the waqf. although most of waqf founder at this time was established by sultan yet the ottoman sultans preferred to give the authority the waqf management through mutawalli. if the wakif (waqf founder) could not appoint someone as a mutawalli, subsequently the wakif automatically can be counted as a mutawalli who must maintain and manage the waqf property (genca, 2014). in waqf law during the ottoman empire was stated that to keep the waqf assets maintained and did not run out, it is better that the person appointed as mutawalli is the person closest to the wakif. however, it would be great if the mutawalli was the person who has most intelligent or good at managing waqf assets. a competent person will manage and protect the waqf assets. in order to protect the waqf assets, the wakif has the right not to put any conditions on mutawalli. in addition, to protect the waqf property from extinction, it can be managed as desired by the wakif without any state intervention, however, the state through the qadi will be the supervisor of all waqf assets that have been recorded in court (yüksel, 1998, yayla, 2011). cash waqf assets continue to increase every year. cash waqf which began in the early 15th century continued to expand to the anatolian region and the balkans at the end of the 16th century (mandaville, 1979, korkut, 2014, iskandar, 2020). the results or income obtained from cash waqf are also increasing so that there is a large surplus obtained from cash waqf assets. even during this period, some of the income of cash waqf is also the state's opinion. between the years 1456-1546, cash waqf in istanbul alone reached 46.12% of all waqf assets (öztürk, 1995, turkoglu, 2013). mandaville (1979) has also explained that cash waqf in istanbul during the reign of sultan beyazid ii (1481-1512) itself experienced a very significant increase. in the list of waqf records found by cizarça on cash waqf in bursa only between the years 1555-1823, it shows that the money waqf of the ottoman empire has survived with extraordinary value. this shows that cash waqf in the ottoman period continued to increase. however, the increase in the cash waqf property was not accompanied by a massive distribution, so it caused many of the waqf assets to experience excess (surplus). the management of waqf assets by individuals has caused problems. this problem was caused by the wakif who appointed mutawalli among themselves to avoid supervision by kadi on their waqf. in addition, the authority given to mutawalli was upwards of the 46 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 37-51 authority of kadi to oversee cash waqf assets. this condition made the mutawalli able to take extensive action in the management of waqf property without the knowledge of the qadi. moreover, there were waqf management officers who were not directly elected by the mutawalli but are appointed by the wakif or by the kadi. this circumtances of course very risky for the occurrence of fraud in the management of waqf assets (genca, 2014). during the reign of sultan mahmud ii, the above problems have been tried to be resolved by giving the authority to administer waqf to certain institutions such as seyhulislam, sadrazam, darussade agası and kadi istanbul. the institution is given the authority to manage waqf assets that have been widely scattered and some cannot be controlled, the purpose of managing waqf under this institution is so that waqf assets can be managed better and prevent expenditures from the income of waqf assets to things that are not needed. the transfer of authority for managing waqf assets to the above institutions does not in fact make the management of the waqf system that has been formed able to manage waqf better. even the management at that time there were also malpractices of waqf assets and abuse of authority over the income obtained from waqf assets (genca, 2014). these reasons prompted the government at that time to transform the management of cash waqf by using the sovereign wealth fund model known as evkaf-i hümayun nezareti. under this institution, waqf assets began to be managed in a more centralized and structured manner. the reformation of the waqf institution (1826-1922) the reforms carried out on waqf institutions were influenced by many factors, both internal in the waqf management system itself and social, political factors and government relations at that time with other countries. hence, problems with the management of cash waqf that occurred before this time were not the main reason. whatever the reason behind the reform of the waqf institution, it emerged from the waqf foundation system that had been formed from the previous period. the reform of the centralized evkaf-i hümayun nezareti waqf institution became a very interesting thing in the history of the ottoman empire. with the establishment of this institution, not only as a waqf management institution, but also as a source of finance established by the government at that time. if it is associated with today's era, this institution is an institution called the overeign wealth fund (swf). schena, braunstein, & ali (2018) mention that the sovereign wealth fund (swf) is an organically emerging fundraising model that is related to the accumulation of surplus from income commodities. swf was originally created to manage the excess accumulation of commodity wealth. this excess accumulation requires a new management that can accommodate the excess funds so that they can be reorganized into capital that can be used to build a government bureaucracy effectively. regardless there are also swfs that are made to recycle a country's surplus income so that the excess funds collected can be controlled and regulated more effectively. evkaf-i hümayun nezareti was founded in 1826 by sultan mahmud for the sole administration of all the scattered waqf property belonging to the sultans and their relatives (öztürk, 1985). since its establishment, this institution has had a dynamic structure and has begun to carry out strict supervision of waqf assets. all waqf assets managed by individuals or groups, began to be taken over to be managed again in a more structured manner under one institution. under this institution, the problematic waqf property is taken from the manager and the income obtained from the waqf property is recalculated. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 37-51 47 at the beginning of the formation of this institution, the waqf property that had been managed by the mutawalli and qadi was taken over gradually. the main director evkaf-i hümayun contacted the mutawalli and made a gradual shift of management. this is the consequence must be taken in reforming the management and realigning the waqf property. however, for the main purpose carried out is to strengthen the internal management of the institution such as forming an inspectorate and main management as well as building an office building that will be used for the waqf management center itself (genca, 2014). after the reform of waqf institutions, the management of waqf assets continues to be improved and developed. in 1831, the inspectorate evkaf-ı hümayun was established which served to adjudicate cases related to waqf and cases or issues affiliated with waqf institutions and mutawalli as waqf managers. in addition, the inspectorate evkaf-ı hümayun also functions to inspect or audit the wakaf property and make repairs to the wakaf property if necessary (genca, 2014). in 1833, evkaf-ı hümayun also improved the management of waqf by setting up a representative office to assist and be responsible for wakaf managed under the darussaade institution. the establishment of this representative office was due to the large number of waqfs under nazir darussaade which caused overwhelmed in its management. however, to prevent the dualism of waqf administrators and public confusion over the legal waqf administrators, in 1836 darussaade's waqf management authority was abolished and all waqf property managed under the institution was taken over completely by the directorate of evkaf-ı hümayun. the existence of the evkaf-ı hümayun institution has basically brought changes to the management of cash waqf in general. this can be seen from the increase in the results obtained from the business or management carried out with cash waqf. in addition, the profits from the tax on land (avariz vakfı) imposed on the rich have also been categorized as cash waqf. this categorization has made cash waqf assets increase consequently. so evkaf-ı hümayun allocates and distributes cash waqf to those in need more than before. however, in practice there are still violations that continue even though a law has been issued against violators of the provisions made in waqf law (genca, 2014). to support this reform step, the government enacted new regulations on waqf governance. in this regulation issued in 1863, it was stated that the nazir of waqf was permitted to commit those who deviated and misappropriated the waqf property after it was recorded in a court decision, they would be subject to sanctions in the form of imprisonment or would be exiled to a place of exile. 4. conlusion cash waqf is a derivative of waqf which is usually conducted in the form of immovable property such as land and buildings. as a practice that is highly recommended in islam, cash waqf has developed far from the time of the ottoman empire. the initiation of cash waqf during the ottoman empire had a significant impact on society socially and economically. the impact of cash waqf is not only on the social sector of society but also has built the government's economy at that time, even part of the proceeds of waqf property has become a source of state income. the development of waqf also does not only occur in the city center but has also expanded to the villages. cash waqf has helped people who need capital to do business. waqf institutions during the ottoman sultanate played a role not only as a charity institution but also as a financial institution that had managed waqf assets. the income generated from waqf assets was allocated to the society and could also meet the needs of 48 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(1) june 2022, 37-51 the state such as providing military equipment for the ottoman army. along with the exchange of ottoman’s sultan, the management of cash waqf by waqf institutions also underwent changes. a significant reform was the establishment of evkaf-ı hümayun nezareti as the sole institution for waqf management. the initiation of the establishment of this institution has had an impact on the increase in waqf assets. the establishment of cash waqf institutions in the ottoman empire has shown an important step that has been taken to ensure the effectiveness of cash waqf development. cash waqf management in the ottoman empire has proof waqf as islamic social finance in islamic economic theory shown a significant contribution to society and the ottoman government. 5. acknowledgement i

(2021) suggests that sharia bank’s growth might affect a country’s economic growth. the interrelatedness relationship between real sectors and banks shows that the interaction between the two will increase economic growth which cannot be separated from the use of banking products and services in developing the businesses being run (kazarenkova et al., 2015). it is predicted that sharia bank industry will keep on growing with an assumed growth at 9.4% using compound annual growth rate (cagr) while the global sharia finance asset potential is predicted to reach us$ 3.782 billion up to 2022 (linda, 2022). as an intermediary institution, banks should be capable of maintaining the trust of those saving their funds to be managed by them. alshari & lokhande (2022) reveals to what extent a financial institution is capable of adopting modern technology in providing their servies is also a key factor. the high interest that people have is especially because they are motivated with the idea that sharia banks are safer than conventional ones (abdelhedi & ghorbel, 2016). until recently, the growth of sharia bank's total assets in indonesia is in a positive trend each year. in 2019 the total assets owned by sharia banks was 350,363.54 billion and in 2020 it was 397,072.97 billion, increasing 13.33%, and now in 2021 the total assets owned is 441,788.83 billion, growing at 11.26% (otoritas jasa keuangan, 2022). this proves that in performing their main function as agents of development, sharia banks which play a role in collecting funds from third parties, particularly the one obtained from term investment saving product known as deposit, are highly necessary to help facilitate the management of liquidity and run the economy, especially when it comes to real sector. in terms of its number, the deposit product of sharia banks keeps on increasing significantly as depicted in figure 1. figure 1. growth of public sharia bank’s deposit for quarter period of 2020-2022 (billion) mudarabah deposit becomes a featured product of sharia banks in indonesia for collecting third party’s fund since, when it comes to source of bank’s fund, deposit has the highest percentage or portion compared to other products such as savings and current account (prihastuty & sudana, 2016). conclusions in the previous study shows that deposits international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 125-137 127 are important sources of funding for banks which will affect the stability of banking system (jaaber, 2017; turhani & hoda, 2016; vuong et al., 2020) since if it is the main source of funding then it is important for sharia bank management to figure out the factors that affect it. some previous studies show that the amount volume of deposit collected by banks are influenced by various factors (almejyesh & rajha, 2014; asayesh et al., 2017; gunasekara & kumari, 2018). according to yan et al. (2014), the fundamental factors in banks can affect their term deposit. this research focuses on external and internal factors which can affect the volume of mudarabah deposit obtained by sharia banks. some previous studies suggest that deposits can be affected by factors which include macroeconomic conditions and also bank’s internal affairs (bakashbayev et al., 2020; çekrezi, 2022; morina & osmani, 2019). the macroeconomic conditions that the researcher used as the determinant factors of amount of mudarabah deposit were interest rate and exchange rate. the correlation which connects deposit return in a sharia financial instrument to interest rate is one of the issues that is being questioned even until now. in practice, the operation of sharia financial system uses an interest-free system known as profit and loss sharing. however, a previous study finds that the operation of sharia financial system is still, albeit indirectly, affected by the interest rate applied in conventional banks and determined by the institution holding the monetary authority, in this case bank of indonesia, implying a gap in theory and practice of islamic banking (anuar et al., 2014). assertively, beck et al. (2012) dan el-gamal (2005) argue that the rate of profit and loss sharing in sharia deposits follows the conventional bank’s deposit interest rate. similarly, chong & liu (2009), erdogan et al. (2020), mushafiq & sehar (2021), dan suyyinah (2018) suggest that conventional bank’s deposit interest rate and sharia bank’s deposit have cointegration relationship. meanwhile, exchange rate is thought to normally affect since it is needed in export and import transactions. thus, a currency’s exchange rate is fluctuating as a result of trading activity which gives rise to depreciation and appreciation because of the use of foreign currency (widarjono & mardhiyah, 2022). this research investigated the roles of interest rate and profit and loss sharing as a form of deposit return system and tested their influences collectively on mudarabah deposit by analyzing an aggregate data of all public sharia banks in indonesia. this study seeks to explore the implication by considering why interest rate, exchange rate, profit and loss sharing, and number of branch offices variables have an important effect, particularly for mudarabah deposit. it aims at testing and discovering the influence of bank’s external and internal factors, namely interest rate, exchange rate, profit and loss sharing, and number of branch offices on mudarabah deposit. furthermore, it is supported by the addition of theories from macro side in islam which makes it different from previous studies. it is expected that this research can contribute to the concept of mudarabah deposit, particularly in regard to the influence of such variables as interest rate, exchange rate, profit and loss sharing, and number of branch offices. 2. method the population in this research was 12 public sharia banks in indonesia on conditions that they had monthly financial statements for 5 years starting from january 2017 through december 2021. samples were taken using saturated sampling, where all members of the population were used as the sample. the data used in this research was obtained from statistics indonesia (bps), financial services authority, reports from the ministry of trade of the republic of indonesia, and monthly financial statements from public sharia banks 128 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 125-137 obtained from the banks’ websites. the data was analyzed using multiple linear regression via spss where 60 samples were analyzed to test the hypotheses formulated in the following equation model. y = ꭤ+ β1x1 + β2x + β3x3 + β4x4 where: y : amount of mudarabah savings deposit x1 : public bank's interest rate x2 : rupiah exchange rate x3 : deposit profit and loss sharing of public sharia banks x4 : number of branch offices ꭤ : constant β1 : regression coefficient of interest rate β2 : regression coefficient of rupiah exchange rate β3 : regression coefficient of deposit profit and loss sharing of public sharia banks β4 : regression coefficient of number of branch offices 3. result and discussion linearity test a good correlation should have linear relations between the independent and dependent variables. to test the linearity, the researcher used ramsey reset test on a criterion that if the value of probability f-statistic > 0.05 then there is a significant linear correlation between the independent and dependent variables and vice versa (bawono & shina, 2018). table 1. test linearity variable deviation from linearity sig. deposit*interest rate .000 deposit*rupiah exchange rate .046 deposit*profit and loss

linearity was 0.000 < 0.05, thus it is safe to conclude that there is no significant linear correlation between interest rate and the amount of mudarabah savings deposit. b. it is found that the value of deviation of linearity was 0.046> 0.05, thus it can be concluded that there is a significant linear correlation between rupiah exchange rate and the amount of mudarabah savings deposit. c. it is found that the value of deviation of linearity was 0.142> 0.05, thus it can be concluded that there is a significant linear correlation between profit and loss sharing and the amount of mudarabah savings deposit. d. it is found that the value of deviation of linearity was 0.20> 0.05, thus it can be concluded that there is a significant linear correlation between number of branch offices and the amount of mudarabah savings deposit. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 125-137 129 multiple regression analysis table 2. multiple regression

would lead to an increase in the amount of mudarabah savings deposit by (236.842). hypothesis test (t-test) based on table 2 it is found that: 1) the sig value of interest rate variable for its effect on the amount of mudarabah savings deposit was 0.307 > 0.05 and the value of t score (-1.032) < 2.004), thus it can be concluded that h0 is accepted and h1 is rejected, meaning that interest rate (x1) has no effect on the amount of mudarabah savings deposit (y). because based on the criteria that if the value of t score ≤ t table then ho is accepted at -1.032 > -2.004 and hi is rejected. 2) the sig value of rupiah exchange rate variable for its effect on the amount of mudarabah savings deposit was 0.000 > 0.05 and value of t score (4.785) < 2.004), thus it can be concluded that h0 is rejected

correlation level between the independent and dependent variables, meaning the correlation of interest rate, rupiah exchange rate, profit and loss sharing and number of branch offices with the amount of mudarabah deposit was 0.953 or 95.3%. meanwhile, the value of adjusted r square explains that the interest rate, rupiah exchange rate, profit and loss sharing and number of branch offices variables can explain the dependent variable, i.e., the amount of mudarabah deposit at 0.902 or 90.2%, and the remaining 9.8% is affected by other untested factors. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 125-137 131 discussion public bank's interest rate has no effect on the amount of mudarabah savings deposit the result of analysis of the first hypothesis indicated that interest rate (x1) has no effect on the amount of mudarabah savings deposit (y) at a sig value of 0.307 > 0.05 and value of t score at (-1.032) < 2.004. statistically, the research result indicated that interest rate had no effect on the amount of mudarabah savings deposit. this means an increase in the interest rate will have no effect whatsoever since sharia banks have this quality of being based on interestfree transactions as a manifestation of trust that there are factors which dominate muslim’s economic behavior in the form of knowledge and concept of faith that affect their perception and decisions (haron & ahmad, 2000). another study found the reason why bank interest has no effect, i.e. because it contradicts their religious belief (alinda, 2016). however, the effect of interest rate on sharia bank remains debatable even until now. previous study revealed that savings and finance in sharia banks were more responsive to interest rate movement than conventional banks (ergec & arslan, 2013). another study also showed that sharia banks cannot actually be separated from interest rate effect indication despite the fact that they were frequently considered interest-free (kassim et al., 2009). an increase in bank interest rate will be followed by deposit and loan interest rate increases in conventional banks. this indicates that the use of time value of money principle is tightly embedded with the concept which is based on interest rate theory (asmin et al., 2021). the calculation of time value of money here is based on interest. the application of time value of money principle is eventually indicated closer to the usury practice since money is considered a commodity that can develop and give a guaranteed return. in monetary theory, the payment of interest to gain profit is referred to speculation motiff of money demand by keynes. according to asmin et al. (2021) as long as the interest rate (which reflects the fund price) is never negative, then the current money will always be more valuable than later. the higher the interest rate that is considered relevant, the greater the difference between the current value and the value to be received in the future. in conventional banks, the application of interest system is identical to the concept of risk transfer and speculative behavior with freedom to invest in various projects without putting an emphasis on the commodity physical existence (parsa, 2022). according to karim (2017) such concept is different from islamic banking system which determine profit and loss sharing mechanism over the use of fund, both for the customers and the banks, and there is such thing as time value of money in islamic economic concept. exchange rate has an effect on the amount of mudarabah savings deposit the result of analysis of the second hypothesis indicated that rupiah exchange rate (x2) has an effect on the amount of mudarabah savings deposit (y) at a sig value of 0.000< 0.05 and value of t score at 4.785> 2.004. previous study indicated that annual mean exchange rate has an effect on deposit mobilization (tun, 2019). according to previous study finding, the volatility of exchange rate may affect the bank balance with great market share (libman, 2018). in another research, it was found that an increase in rupiah exchange rate against us dollar triggered a multiplier effect which resulted in increased commodity goods price (tho’in & prastiwi, 2019). in support to this statement when a bank expands their assets and liabilities in the form of foreign and domestic currencies, this bank will be more vulnerable to exchange rate changes (berg & borensztein, 2000). many developing countries are heavilt dependent on us dollar or euro since they are considered more stable than their national 132 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 125-137 currency (semenova & shapkin, 2019). the weakening rupiah exchange rate against us dollar serves as a reflection of an uncertain economic condition and, thus, will increase the business climate risk and affect the real sector some of which is supported by financing from banks. hence, the banking sector is affected by the exchange rate position since in global exchange or transaction activity, foreign currencies are involved (pratiwi & lukmana, 2015). in islamic economic concept, money demand for speculation is unknown thus the faster the money circulation in real sector is, the better it is for the economy. according to karim (2017), in islamic economy the exchange rate system follows the market equilibrium. if a currency’s exchange rate is correlated to mudarabah deposit, the effect is indirect since a currency exchange rate can fluctuate as a result of the influence of supply and demand of money market and investment profitability. in this case, if rupiah weakens against us dollar, then it will lead to decreased people’s purchasing power and they will withdraw their money from the banks to fulfill their consumption needs (pratiwi & lukmana, 2015) profit and loss sharing has an effect on the amount of mudarabah savings deposit the result of analysis of the third hypothesis indicated that profit and loss sharing (x3) has an effect on the amount of mudarabah savings deposit (y) at a sig value of 0.001< 0.05 and value of t score at (-3.473) < 2.004. sharia banks have a unique paradigm in terms of profit and loss sharing which explains that lenders must bear the business risks together with borrowers since both of them have no power to control the success or failure of a business (ergec & arslan, 2013). previous study found that sharia bank’s management system that prioritized the transparency of profit and loss sharing affected public trust (zuhroh, 2022). another research also showed that sharia banks that provided profit and loss sharing and non-profit and loss sharing contracts would face lower risks than those that provided only non-profit and loss sharing contracts (widarjono et al., 2022). according to fianto et al. (2020) dan ozdincer & yuce (2018), sharia banks uphold equity, asset-based contracts and particularly profit and loss sharing system which serves as the main differentiator of sharia banks from other banks. in their research, haddad & souissi (2022) suggested that according to the profit and loss sharing principle, the parties to the transaction should fairly share the risks of every project; business actors share the loss and profit with the banks and eventually will share the profit and loss with the depositors. the profit and loss sharing system is considered far more stable than interest rate financing system since it allows investors to not only share the risks but also to participate in making decisions and to propose ideas to reduce the risks (osmanovic et al., 2022). the main objective of bank business model is to provide financing to deficit units using mudarabah deposit product and, in turn, the risk transparency is also taken into consideration. for this reason, information on risk mitigation is needed to help manage the investment risks (umam et al., 2021). theoretically the banking model in islam follows the principle of profit and loss sharing from the profit when making business transaction (purchase and sales) and refraining from taking a return in a fixed way (interest) in every form of money loan and investment (samad, 2020). this shows that islam actually does not acknowledge the concept of time value of money since money in itself has no time value (karim, 2017). it is the time that has economic value (economic value of time), only if the time is used by adding other production factors that it becomes a capital and obtain profit or gives rise to economic added value. according to karim (2017), the basis for calculation in the concept of economic value of time is nisbah (ratio). the obtained nisbah rate will depend on the application of profit and loss sharing system. in profit and loss sharing system, the international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 125-137 133 management of capital distributed in financing in real sector can generate added values since the money circulate in economic activities (karim, 2017). the number of branch offices has an effect on the amount of mudarabah savings deposit the analysis result of the fourth hypothesis indicated that number of branch offices (x4) has an effect on the amount of mudarabah savings deposit (y) at a sig value of 0.000< 0.05 and t score value of 8.122> 2.004. statistically speaking, number of branch offices has an effect on the amount of mudarabah savings deposit, which indicates that the greater the number of branch office, the easier it will be to make transactions and to collect fund for the bank. bank expands their brach offieces aggresively to reach greater area and this will make the banking services more accessible to make more people to save their cashes and wealth (tafa & worku, 2022). this statement is supported by sambe (2017) who found that banks’ branch offices have a long-term correlation with their deposits. increasing the number of branch offices is considered banks’ geographical diversification strategy that increases the deposit mobilization (kusi et al., 2022). adding more branch offices is highly important to discover the inclusiveness of sharia banks in expanding their accessibility to the people. this was also supported by another finding from aguirregabiria et al. (2016) who argues that despite the growth of communication and internet technology, the number of branch offices as an attempt to expand network remains an important part to increase deposit market share. sarma (2012) found that increasing the number of branch offices has a desirable and significant effect on financial inclusion level. branch office is an important element that also plays a role in collecting the amount of bank liquidity since the potential of collecting deposits is one of the considerations taken to expand the area scope of bank branch offices and also one of some expansion strategies used by banks. furthermore, number of branch offices serves as a financial intermediary connected through the increase in number of accesses to banking financial services. increasing the number of branch offices implies that providing access to facilities and services will allow many parties to access financial products and be served more easily (bongomin et al., 2018). 4. conclusion mudarabah deposit is the main focus of this research since it plays an important role in sharia banks’ stability and liquidity. this research analyzed the factors that determined the amount of mudarabah deposits obtained by public sharia banks in indonesia. our finding indicated that, rupiah exchange rate, level of profit and loss sharing and number of branch offices have an effect on the amount of mudarabah deposit. insofar, indonesian sharia banks have attempted to expand their influence by providing various services and increasing the number of their branch offices, yet the macroeconomic situation also plays a role in affecting customers in investing their funds. the fluctuating exchange rates resulting from the uncertain global economy has so far showed its influence on the acquisition of mudarabah deposits by sharia banks. the correlation which connects deposit return in a sharia financial instrument to interest rate is one of the issues that is being questioned even until now. nevertheless, the empirical evidence obtained from the analysis of this research showed that during the process the interest rate policy that had been implemented was found to have no effect on the acquisition of mudarabah deposits. 134 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 125-137 acknowledgment we would like thanks all in this study. we also thank the reviewer for significant comments and suggestions to improve this paper. references abdelhedi, m. z., & ghorbel, a.

abstract this study aims to determine the implementation of the dsn mui fatwa number 26 of 2013. furthermore, how it affects the purchase decision of generation muslimah y and z in choosing and buying cosmetic products—using qualitative methods with triangulation techniques, namely using various data collection methods consisting of observations, interviews, questionnaires, and documentation studies. the results show that the critical point of halal in cosmetics consists of the composition of the ingredients used and the resistance of cosmetics to water. among the muslim generations y and z, some already know, and some do not know the halal standards of cosmetics. however, according to generations y and z, cosmetic halal standards in dsn – mui fatwa number 26 of 2013 can affect their purchase decision on halal cosmetic products. halal certification is still the main reason for purchasing halal cosmetics compared to prices, trends, and brands. it did by the muslimah generation y and z. in conclusion, dsn fatwa–mui number 26 of 2013 applies effectively to the muslimah generation y and z as a consideration in choosing and buying halal cosmetics. this research implies that halal labeling can be used as a marketing strategy for a cosmetic product. the originality of this research lies in the object of research, which is only limited to generations of muslim women y and z and

and its contents (sari et al., 2021). the world's population is currently filled by several generations, including baby boomers, x, y, and z. gen baby boomers are a group born after world war ii, namely 1946-1964 (nur aeni, 2022). gen xers were born in the early days of the use of technology, namely those born in 1965 – 1979 (setiawan & nugroho, 2018). gen y or commonly called the millennial generation (lissitsa & kol, 2016), and digital natives (yulianita, 2018) are those who were born in 1980 1994. furthermore, gen z or i-generation, that is, those born between 19952010. the gen z group is the first generation to grow up on the internet (betz, 2019). this generation is predicted to grow up in the age of high-tech communication (kapil & roy, 2014) so that they will be more up-to-date on issues spread in the mass media or the internet (kompas.com, 2021). the two most unique and exciting groups to research are generations y and z. both generations y and z are generations that are always connected to the internet and innovative technology (dwidienawati et al., 2021). in addition, generations y and z are highly curious about new things. generations y and z are the populations that dominate social media. their circle of friends is virtual, and they are virtually always online on any technical device (andrea et al., 2016). although genes y and z have differences in consumer behavior (reisenwitz, 2021), gen y and z have similar general characteristics (raslie & ting, 2020). they are very active and creative. these two generations always want to show their best version on social media. therefore, appearance is the most important for these two generations. a study has found that the millennial muslim generation, or what is commonly called generation y plus generation z, is a segment of the muslim population that has been influential starting in the 20th century. the world's muslim population is expected to increase by about 35% in the next 20 years. —from 1.6 billion in 2020 to 2.2 billion by 2030 (grim & karim, 2011). moreover, it will increase by 2.67 billion by 2050 (salman et al., 2019). meanwhile, according to pew research projections, by 2050, the muslim population will be close to 2.8 billion or 30% of the total population (fardila et al., 2020). furthermore, indonesia is still the country with the most muslim population, beating middle eastern countries where 90% of the population is muslim and is an islamic country (warsah et al., 2019). the millennial muslim generation has religious, modern, universal goodness, and high buying power. this unique characteristic shapes their values, behaviors, and aspirations (rahmah, 2021). according to imam shahid hasan al bana, there are ten good muslim characteristics: clean aqidah, authentic worship, noble morals, physically strong, intelligence, earnestness – the really, ability to manage time, independence, professionalism, and benefit to others (bustamin et al., 2019). muslim generations y and z use technology to facilitate all activities, especially during the covid-19 pandemic. there are five gen z activities as well as those that occur in gen y, that their activities are related to mobile phones, including using social media (95%), using chat or instant messaging services (92%), visiting video sharing sites and watching them (91%), visiting or using search engines (90%), and visiting sites or online retail stores (795%%). in terms of shopping, these two generations certainly get information about the product and buy them online (mamula et al., 2022), including skin care products and cosmetics. cosmetics are biotechnology products that function to maintain the beauty and health 150 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 148-162 of the skin. however, many cases still relate to using harmful substances in cosmetics. usually, women are willing to do various ways for their skin and body care. there are still many beauty products that only care about results compared to the feasibility of the ingredients used. likewise, consumers will usually only focus on the results promised by a beauty product without paying attention to what ingredients are contained in the product. no wonder some cosmetic products provide side effects that harm skin health. currently, regulations related to cosmetic products are regulated in the fatwa dsn mui number 26 of 2013 concerning halal standards for cosmetic products and their use. based on the fatwafatwa, cosmetics must be made halal and sacred. the fiqh rule reads: "the law of hope of something useful is permissible, and the law of origin of something harmful is haram." thus, cosmetic products must contain allowed ingredients and not be harmful. to protect the indonesian muslim community, the government began to focus on halal certification on products circulating in the community, both food and non-food products. as the islamic sharia commands that everything consumed or used by the muslim community must be certified halal. cosmetics include the daily needs of the muslim community. therefore cosmetics are among the products that must be certified halal. indonesian muslims have the largest proportion in the world (bahri et al., 2021). currently, indonesia is entering the era of the demographic bonus, where the number productive age population is more than the unproductive age (al-athar & al arif, 2021). muslims dominate generations y and z in indonesia compared to the non-muslim generation. if the muslim generations y and z are the most significant cosmetics users, then generations y and z muslims should be the pioneers of halal cosmetics. however, the reality is that many factors can influence the purchase decision of the muslim generations y and z towards halal cosmetic products. in addition to trends and brands, price is also a consideration for these two generations in purchasing products. therefore, researchers are interested in researching the understanding of muslim generations y and z towards dsn – mui fatwa number 26 of 2013 concerning halal standards for cosmetic products and their use. researchers want to determine whether the product's halalness is also a consideration for the y and z muslimah generation in choosing and buying halal cosmetic products. they considered that the muslim generations y and z are generations close to the internet. meanwhile, information about halal critical points is also widely on social media and the internet. through this research, it will be known how many generations y and z understand dsn-mui fatwa number 26 of 2013 concerning halal standards for cosmetic products and how they are implemented. in addition, it is hoped that the generation of muslimah y and z who do not know about the existence of a critical point of halal cosmetic products will know and follow the rules of the dsn-mui fatwa number 26 of 2013 so that the muslimah generation y and z can become the market share of halal cosmetics in indonesia. based on the background above, the authors are interested in examining the implementation of the dsn mui fatwa on halal cosmetics. the dsn-mui fatwa is not included in the legislation with permanent legal force. the author wants to know how far generations y and z understand the dsn – mui fatwa, especially the dsn – mui fatwa, which regulates the cosmetics they use daily. generations of muslim women y and z have unique characteristics. therefore the author wants to know what their purchase decision is for cosmetics. international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 148-162 151 2. methods this research is qualitative with a type of case study. the research will be carried out on the muslimah generation y and z in depth for this type of research, namely obtaining a complete and detailed description of an entity (hasan et al., 2022). there are three types of case study research: intrinsic case studies, instrumental case studies, and collective case studies. researchers use intrinsic case studies because researchers want to understand in depth the influence of dsn – mui fatwas on muslimah generations y and z purchasing decisions. especially on halal cosmetic products, the specificity of this case is the reason this study was carried out, not for other external reasons (fiantika et al., 2022). this research is descriptive. the researcher will describe all the data found in the field in narrative form. data can be in the form of halal critical points on cosmetic products, the implementation of dsn – mui fatwa number 26 of 2013, and the purchase decision of the millennial muslim generation towards halal cosmetics. the data that has been presented will then be analyzed using theory so that the data can be described accurately and systematically (anggito & setiawan, 2018). the data collection method in this study uses triangulation techniques. namely, researchers use data collection techniques at the same source (roosinda et al., 2021). researchers used documentation studies to explain the problem of critical points in cosmetic ingredients. on the completion of the implementation of the dsn – mui fatwa number 26 of 2013 concerning halal standards for cosmetic products and their use, researchers used structured interview techniques and a collective questionnaire. meanwhile, researchers used a collective questionnaire and participant observation to solve the problem of purchasing decisions of the y and z muslim generations towards halal cosmetics. and then there are three steps in analyzing data, namely (fiantika et al., 2022): data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. 3. result and discussion halal critical point in cosmetic products according to lppom mui, there are two important things related to the critical point of cosmetic halalness: ingredients and cosmetic resistance in ablution water (lppom mui, 2020). the ingredients used in skincare and cosmetics can come from plants, animal microbes, and humans. plant ingredients in skincare and cosmetics are non-critical ingredients. however, these plant materials must be considered in their processing to avoid a mixture of unclean or non-halal ingredients (scarf media, 2021). several animal ingredients are included in the critical point of cosmetic products' halalness. first, ingredients of animal origin can be collagen and elastin. collagen and elastin are derived from animal bones. both serve to increase the elasticity of the skin. therefore the ingredient is usually present in creams and lotions (muchtaridi, 2017). the material can be used as long as it must be ensured that it does not come from prohibited animals such as pigs and dogs. in addition, the mode of the slaughter of animals must be by islamic law. secondly, the animal ingredient that is the tipping point of skincare and cosmetics is salts of fatty acids, such as lauryl palmitic and glyceryl monostearate. fatty acid salts are stabilizers for essential ingredients such as lipsticks, deodorants, and eye shadows. in addition to fatty salts, essential fatty acids are used for skin care. these acids are easily oxidized and unstable, requiring stabilizing agents (muchtaridi, 2017). therefore, the source of such fatty acids must be ensured halalness and chastity. third, extract the placenta. placenta extract functions as a stabilizer of the hormonal 152 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 148-162 system, so it can increase milk, promote menstruation, improve blood circulation, stabilize menopause, increase fertility, and can increase sexual arousal. this extract comes from the animal placenta through placenta enzymes and lipids. this extract can be taken from the placenta of a newborn baby, but the use of the human placenta is prohibited by islamic law (muchtaridi, 2017). the tipping point of cosmetic ingredients of human origin is forbidden. in skincare and cosmetic ingredients, ingredients such as the baby's placenta, human hair (keratin), and human organs must be avoided. based on the 4th munas of the mui in bandung in 2000, the scholars issued a fatwa that everything from the human body is haram to be used or consumed (intan & yulianto, 2018). the placenta of human origin is of the highest quality, followed by the placenta of pig origin, while the placenta of cattle is of the worst quality. therefore, muslim people need to be careful of the placenta ingredients used by cosmetics today. the critical point of cosmetic halalness, in addition to ingredients, is the resistance of cosmetics to water. currently, many cosmetics are given water-resistant ingredients. the goal is that the cosmetics used can be waterproof. however, the problem is that muslims must pray five times, so muslim women who use cosmetics will then perform prayers and ensure that their cosmetics can be penetrated by ablution water. if not, then the ablutions and prayers are invalid. one example of a waterproof cosmetic is eyeliner. this product is made to not fade fast when sweating or even crying. although the material is halal, it hinders ablution. then the law is not valid. muslim women who want to perform prayers should avoid this type of cosmetics. currently, water-penetrating testing is one of the things that must be done during the halal certification process. therefore, lppom mui opened a water-penetrating test laboratory accredited by iso 17025 (lppom mui 2020). table 1. source of ingredients for the manufacture of cosmetics sources of ingredients for the manufacture of cosmetics plant synthetic chemistry human microbe animal example : • plant

animals. materials written in letters whose halalness is still in doubt or sharia terms are called syubhat. materials derived from humans are forbidden. at the same time, animal-made materials must first be ascertained by the animal. if the animal is unclean, then it is included in the najis. if it does not come from an animal haram, it must also be ascertained whether the animal has gone through the process of slaughtering according to islamic law. the halalness of cosmetic ingredients derived from plants are halal. unless, in the manufacturing process, there is the addition of plant ingredients or helpers whose halalness is doubtful. such as plant extracts that use neutralizing solvents that are not kosher; fatty acids and their derivatives are unstable. so they must be added with non-kosher stabilizers, and vitamin c from fruits that are added with stabilizers whose halalness is doubtful, as well as glycerol derived from the results of hydrolyzing plant oils with lipase enzymes derived from the pig pancreas. meanwhile, the halalness of cosmetic ingredients from chemical synthetics is halal as long as there are no additives that are doubtful about their halalness. furthermore, the halalness of ingredients for cosmetics derived from microbes such as alpha acid – hydroxy (aha), microbial proteins, coenzyme q-10 (coq-10), and alcohol depends on the halalness of the media material (such as refreshing media material, microbial propagation media, and production media), halal additives and post-fermentation materials. thus knowing about the critical point of halal in cosmetics is very important. although cosmetics do not directly enter the body like food and drinks, cosmetics can stick and absorb through the skin. muslims are prohibited from using things that are haram, even small. although the ingredients above have an excellent effect on the skin, there are still many ingredients that are also good for the skin and are halal in islamic law. thus, knowing the critical point of halal in cosmetic compositions, people can avoid buying cosmetics that contain non-halal ingredients. implementation of dsn mui fatwa number 26 of 2013 on the use of halal cosmetics by muslimah generations y and z the fatwa on halal standards of cosmetic products and their use was passed in 2013. the consideration for this fatwa is because cosmetics have become a human need, and technological developments have been able to produce various cosmetic products that use various ingredients and have diverse functions, which are often unclear ingredients, whether sacred or not. thus, the mui needs to establish fatwas on the halal standards of cosmetic products and their use. the legal basis of the standard halal cosmetic is q.s al-ahzaab: 33. through this verse, allah almighty commands humanity to be decorated but forbids them to decorate like the jahiliyyah. in addition, there are q.s al-baqarah: 29, q.s al-a'raf: 32, and q.s al-jasiyah: 13. these verses explain the benefits of allah almighty's creation in general for the benefit of 154 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 148-162 man. next is the word of allah almighty about the necessity to consume the halal one in q.s al-baqarah: 168 and q.s al-baqarah: 172. allah almighty about several types of food and drinks forbidden in q.s al-baqarah: 173, q.s al-maidah: 3, and q.s al-an'am: 145. before the ratification of fatwas on the halal standards of cosmetic products and their use, there were several other fatwas related to cosmetic halalness. among them is the fatwa of the national deliberation vi mui number 2 / munas vi / mui / 2000 concerning the use of body organs, ari ari, and human urine for the benefit of drugs and cosmetics. as well as mui fatwa no. 4 of 2003 concerning the standardization of halal fatwas. mui fatwa no. 30 of 2011 concerning the use of halal animal placenta and external medicines. according to fatwa number 26 of 2013 concerning halal standards for cosmetic products, using cosmetics to be legally decorated is allowed, but provided that the ingredients used are halal and sacred, intended for the interests allowed in syar'i, and do not harm. meanwhile, the use of cosmetics that are consumed/enter the body if they use unclean ingredients, then the law is illegitimate. however, the use of external cosmetics that do not enter the body, if using unclean ingredients other than pigs, is still allowed on the condition that purification is carried out after use (tahhir syar'i). fatwa number 26 of 2013 also regulates the use of materials, raw materials, active ingredients, or additives) from animal derivatives that are halal (in the form of fat or others), but the method of slaughter is unknown, so the law is makruh tahrim. likewise, the use of ingredients in microbial products that are unknown to the microbial growth medium, whether from pigs or not, should be avoided until there is clarity about the halalness or sanctity of the material. in addition, regarding cosmetics that function as medicines, such as skin care, the rules must refer to fatwas related to the use of drugs. through fatwa number 26 of 2013, mui appeals to the muslim community to choose sacred and halal cosmetics and avoid the use of haram and unclean, makruh tahrim, and those that use ingredients that are not clear about their halalness and purity. in addition, the government also regulates and guarantees the availability of halal and sacred cosmetics by making this fatwa a guideline. as proof of support for this fatwa, lppom mui does not carry out halal certification of cosmetic products that use illicit and unclean ingredients for internal and external use. young indonesians are currently dominated by muslim women from generations y and z. these two generations are the most aware of technology and information. they are effortless to get information and very impressionable. these two generations should also realize the existence of a halal tipping point in cosmetics because usually, they will quickly get information from various sources, especially social media. generations y and z are also generations familiar with cosmetics. those in this generation are considered very concerned about appearance and tend to publish it on social media. to determine the implementation of the dsn-mui fatwa number 26 of 2013, the author distributed a questionnaire to 100 respondents, with criteria: consisting of generations y and z with an age range between 17-35 years, muslims, and females gender. based on a questionnaire distributed to 100 respondents, 57 respondents (57%) said they used cosmetics daily. furthermore, as many as 72 respondents (72%) said they were aware of the critical point of halal in cosmetics. regarding the knowledge of generation muslimah y and z about dsn mui fatwa number 26 of 2013, as many as 66 respondents (66%) said that they were aware of the existence of dsn-mui fatwa number 26 of 2013 concerning halal standards for cosmetic products and their use. furthermore, as many as 56 respondents said they followed the international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 148-162 155 contents of the dsn mui fatwa number 26 of 2013 concerning halal standards for cosmetic products and their use. source : questionnaire results figure. 1 respondents' knowledge of dsn fatwas – mui number 26 of 2013 source : questionnaire results figure 2. respondents' compliance with dsn fatwa – mui number 26 of 2013 researchers also interviewed generations y and z representatives about what if generations y and z knew that the product being used was not following halal standards according to dsn mui fatwa number 26 of 2013. miss a, a lecturer who is 27 years old (generation y), replied that it is better not to use it anymore if, indeed, the cosmetic product is not following the halal standards of the dsn fatwa – mui. it is better to look for and use other cosmetic products that already have a halal logo that has been tested for halalness. the researcher also interviewed one of the representatives of generation z, miss b, a 20-year-old female college student. she replied: "if any of the cosmetics used does not follow the halal standards of the dsn-mui fatwa, then the agenda will not use the product again and will immediately throw it away. in addition, the agenda will also provide this information and understanding to family, relatives, and friends to be careful and pay attention to the halalness of cosmetic products to be purchased and used." thus, among generations y and z, there are already those who know and implement dsn-mui fatwa number 26 of 2013 concerning halal standards for cosmetic products and their use. although there are still those who do not know and have not even implemented the dsn mui fatwa, one of whom is miss c, a 30-year-old teacher (generation y). they are unaware of the existence of the dsn mui fatwa on halal standards for cosmetic products 156 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 148-162 and their use; after knowing it, lia will not use products that are not clear about their halalness and will turn to halal products. influence of dsn-mui fatwa number 26 of 2013 on the purchase decision of the muslimah generation y and z on halal cosmetic products consumer behavior involves obtaining, consuming, and consuming a product or service. consumer behavior is dynamic, meaning a consumer's temperament is constantly changing. the dynamic nature of consumer behavior implies that one should not expect that a similar marketing strategy can deliver the same results throughout time, market, and industry (setiadi, 2015). this behavior will influence consumers' purchase decisions (purboyo et al., 2021). according to kotler and amstrong, a consumer's purchase decision is to buy the most preferred brand or the buyer's decision about which brand to buy (wahyuni & ginting, 2017). purchasing decisions can only be made when there are several other alternatives that can be chosen so that someone can make a purchase or not (putra et al., 2020). the purchase decision is a decision-making process by consumers combining all knowledge that is the value of considering between buying or not buying (dwiandani, 2013). purchase decision involves a sequence of choices formed by a consumer before making a purchase which starts once they has the willingness to fulfill a need (hanasya, 2018). consumers will need time to search for and receive information about the product (schiffman & kanuk, 2008). in addition, consumers will be influenced by factors of purchase intention and purchase decisions. purchase intentions can change if the situation faced by consumers hinders or forces them to cancel the purchase or switch to other alternative options (kotler & amstrong, 2018). according to peter and donnelly, it states that purchasing decision-making is influenced by three factors: extensive decision-making, limited decision-making, and routine decision-making (gulliando & shihab, 2019). the complete customer purchase decision stage is a process that comes from all of us their experience in learning, selecting, using, and even getting rid of a product (wardhana et al., 2021). the five stages of the purchase decision process model, according to (kotler & amstrong, 2018): 1) problem recognition begins when the consumer recognizes a problem or needs to be triggered by internal or external stimuli; 2) information search, the primary source of information search, can come from personal, commercial, public, or experience; 3) evaluation of alternatives is how consumers process information and make a final assessment of the product; 4) a purchase decision is a purchase decision by consumers of the selected product. two main factors can influence purchase decisions: first, the attitudes of others which include negative attitudes towards alternative consumer choices, as well as consumer motivation to obey the wishes of others. secondly, the emergence of unforeseen situations can change the purchasing intentions of consumers. (5) post-purchase decision, which consists of: first, post-purchase satisfaction (satisfied with the product); second, postpurchase actions (if satisfied, then it will make a repurchase. otherwise, it will leave, return, or influence others). furthermore, third post-purchase uses and disposal (how consumers use or dispose of products) (pandrianto, 2022). international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 148-162 157 figure. 3 halal cosmetics purchase decision process model based on a questionnaire distributed to 100 respondents, as many as 92 respondents (92%) agreed that the existence of dsn-mui fatwa number 26 of 2013 could affect their purchase decision in buying halal cosmetic products. wardah is proof of the demand for halal cosmetic products in indonesia. as a pioneer of halal cosmetics, wardah is increasingly loved by the muslimah generation of y and z. no wonder wardah sales continue to increase. even wardah has become the best-selling beauty product in the marketplace, wherein in 2021, wardah managed to achieve total sales of idr 13.4 billion within two weeks (compas, 2021). in 2022, there will be a shift in the level of sales of halal cosmetics from wardah to ms glow. however, ms glow is also a pioneer of halal cosmetics in indonesia after wardah. the most significant sales occurred at shopee with a volume of 84.1% and on tokopedia with 15.9%. the total turnover generated by ms glow reaches idr 600 billion per day (sulistyawati, 2022). although it is relatively new compared to wardah, ms glow has proven to be a pioneer of halal cosmetics in indonesia by bagging a halal certificate from the indonesian ulema council (mui) and has obtained permission from the food and drug problem recoginiton information search

supervisory agency (bpom). source: questionnaire results figure. 4 influence of dsn fatwa – mui number 26 of 2013 he existence of wardah and ms glow as the best-selling cosmetic products in indonesia proves that muslims in indonesia still choose and use halal cosmetics compared to other cosmetics. the results of the questionnaire were distributed to 100 generations of y and z respondents. there are no written regulations such as laws governing the halalness of cosmetics. as many as 79 respondents (79%) consider that the fatwa dsn – mui number 26 of 2013 is enough to be used as a guide in choosing and buying halal cosmetic products.. source: questionnaire results figure 5 fatwa dsn – mui number 26 of 2013 as a halal cosmetic product guideline many cosmetic companies make prices, trends, and brand their marketing strategies. it is no wonder that many brands are trying to play prices to attract consumers, although it will impact the quality of their products. in addition, creating a solid brand tends to be easier to meet the needs and desires of consumers. a strong brand also makes prices inelastic, meaning that price increases will not make consumers move to other brands (silviani, 2021). another essential thing in today's marketing strategy is to create trends. trends can be brought to life through viral marketing. viral marketing can encourage the spread of information faster and make consumers curious to try it (haque et al., 2021). nevertheless, the halalness of the product is currently a necessity. the large number of muslimah generations y and z makes halal reasons something logical to prioritize. consuming and using halal products is a command of islamic law following the qur'an, international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 148-162 159 hadith, and fiqh rules. as also stated in the fatwa dsn – mui number 26 of 2013. based on the questionnaire distributed to 100 respondents, generation muslimah y and z agreed that product halalness is the main reason for choosing cosmetic products with the result of 77%, followed by price reasons at 8%, brand at 12%, and trend of 3%. this result is different from previous research done by other researchers. one is research on halal label and product quality: wardah cosmetic product purchase decision case study, conducted by lily ulfia, mamluatul maghfiroh, and rachma indrarini. the result is that the halal label has a moderate value and a significant relationship with purchasing decisions for wardah cosmetics. this result is because the decision to purchase wardah cosmetics is not based on the presence or absence of a halal label but on other factors such as needs, advertisements, and consumer reviews (ulfa et al., 2021). another research is about antecedents of customer's purchasing decisions on halal cosmetics, conducted by previous research in selangor malaysia. the result is that environmental factors significantly affect purchasing decisions for cosmetic products. halal factors affect those who know halal products. nevertheless, the product availability factor in the market is more important than the halal factor (idris et al., 2021). the results almost the same as this research are research on purchase intention of halal cosmetics: the mediating role of attitude. this research was conducted by maghfira rizky maulana, nuryakin, and nur hidayah. according to this study, knowledge and religiosity affect the purchase intention of the millennial generation toward halal cosmetics. good understanding and good religiosity will affect the purchase of halal cosmetics. almost the same as the results of research conducted by the author. the difference in purchasing decisions by generations y and z are influenced by knowledge of the dsn-mui fatwa regulations regarding the halalness of cosmetic products (maulana et al., 2022). source: questionnaire results figure. 6 the main reasons for generations y and z in choosing and buying cosmetic products 4. conclusions based on the results and discussion above, the critical halal point in cosmetic products consists of two: the ingredients used and the ability of cosmetics to absorb ablution water. fatwa dsn mui number 26 of 2013 concerning halal standards for cosmetic products and their use can be implemented by the muslimah generation y and z by paying attention to the ingredients in cosmetic products used by the halal standards of cosmetic products and their use. furthermore, fatwa dsn – mui number 26 of 2013 concerning halal standards for cosmetic products and their use can influence the muslimah generation y and z towards 160 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 148-162 the purchase decision of halal cosmetic products, compared to prices, brands, and trends. this research implies halal labeling can be indonesia's most effective marketing strategy. along with the regulations regarding halal products circulating in indonesia, namely law number 33 of 2014 and fatwa of dsn mui number 26 of 2013. coupled with halal knowledge and awareness of the muslim community, which is getting stronger and increasing. business actors in the cosmetic sector should use halal ingredients. if business actors use halal ingredients, then business actors can register halal product certification to bpjph. after having a halal certificate, business actors can provide a halal label on their cosmetic products. the halal label is proven to have a significant influence on the purchase decisions of muslim generations y and z. fatwa dsn – mui number 26 of 2013 is not positive law, so its existence is not binding for indonesian citizens. therefore, there is a need for even more massive socialization so that not only the muslimah generation y and z but also generations x and before may still not be able to receive information quickly. if information related to halal standards for cosmetic products and their use, as stated in the fatwa dsn mui number 26 of 2013, can be accepted by all circles, then the purchase decision on halal cosmetic products will continue to increase. acknowledgement the author would like to express his deepest gratitude to all parties involved and those who assisted in this article's research and writing process. the co-authors have

inflation; gross domestic product; vecm doi 10.28918/ijibec.v6i2.5970 jel: e31, e43, e52 article info article history: received : 29 july 2022 accepted : 28 october 2022 published : 1 december 2022 mailto:syarifulanam2700@gmail.com international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 110-124 111 1. introduction bank indonesia (bi), as the indonesian monetary authority, has a vital role in regulating monetary policy and achieving the expected growth in economic activity. regular economic activities include macroeconomic stability, as seen from price stability (low inflation), good economic growth, and adequate employment opportunities (warjiyo & solikin, 2003). a stable economy can be seen from the stable prices of goods. if the price of goods is stable, economic actors can easily make various plans, whether planning production, buying raw materials for production, paying labor wages, etc. however, if economic activity is volatile and impacts continuous price increases, it can lead to inflation. inflation that lasts long enough can lead to economic chaos, where all goods and services will decrease. if looking at the impact of inflation, it is necessary to control inflation for a country's economy. to that end, central banks in several countries began implementing the inflation targeting framework (itf) in 1990, starting with new zealand, followed by canada, the uk, sweden, and australia (bernanke & mishkin, 1997). in addition to directing public expectations regarding controlled low inflation rates, the itf aims to increase the central bank's credibility as an actor in monetary policy (mendonça & souza, 2012). meanwhile, in indonesia, bi began to adopt inflation targeting in 1999 and began to determine and announce its first inflation target in early 2000. however, bi officially informed about the implementation of the itf on july 1, 2005 (kenward, 2013; setiawan & karsinah, 2016). the inflation target is the amount the central bank must realize. meanwhile, inflation targeting is regulated by the minister of finance regulation (pmk). in addition to maintaining price stability (low inflation), economic activity expected from monetary policy is good economic growth. the government targets economic growth yearly, as stated in the state budget (apbn). after one year, the target will be corrected whether the economic growth has been as expected or has not been able to achieve the set target. in practice, the government can change the target figure in the middle of the current period if the economic growth goals set at the beginning of the period are considered difficult to achieve in the current period due to economic conditions. gross domestic product (gdp) is a proxy for economic growth because gdp can calculate two things simultaneously: an economy's total income and expenditure. therefore, although gdp is not a perfect and absolute measure of welfare, it is a good indicator of economic growth (atika, 2018). the central bank uses monetary policy to control inflation and influence economic growth as proxied through gdp. to achieve this goal, the central bank will transmit monetary policy through five channels: credit channels, interest rates, exchange rates, asset prices, and inflation expectations. the monetary policy transmission mechanism (mptm) reflects how monetary policy can impact various economic and financial activities to achieve the final policy target (warjiyo, 2004). because it involves interactions between the central bank, the financial sector, economic actors, the government, and other authorities both at home and abroad, the mptm process is relatively complicated (warjiyo & juhro, 2020). because the process is complex, mptm is often known as the 'black box' in economic theory (bernanke & gertler, 1995). the mptm process, until it impacts the final target (inflation and economic growth), can occur in varying and quite long periods (friedman & schwartz, 1963). the effect can occur for 6-8 quarters (warjiyo & juhro, 2020). the complexity of monetary policy transmission was further complicated by the enactment of new banking law in 1998, in which indonesia officially adopted a dual banking system, namely conventional and sharia (sugianto et al., 2015). since the establishment of 112 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 110-124 bank muamalat as the first islamic bank in 1992, indonesia has had two banking systems: interest and profit-sharing. the profit-sharing system is based on the principle of calculation which is more flexible in terms of profit-sharing returns. an increase in the volume of money supply will match the increase in output level under this system (rusydiana, 2009). this study focuses on the transmission of monetary policy through the interest rate channel because the interest rate channel emphasizes prices on the financial market for various economic activities in the real sector. in this sense, monetary policy will affect financial interest rates, which can affect inflation and economic growth (warjiyo, 2004). since implementing the dual banking system, indonesia has used a dual monetary system; an interest rate-based system practiced in conventional monetary and profit-sharing principles in islamic monetary. therefore, islam introduced a sharia monetary system based on islamic sharia principles to solve the interest rate system attached to usury. as regulated in bi regulation no. 10/36/pbi/2008 that bi can use sharia principles in implementing monetary policy. this sharia principle has its role in the economic development of a country (kebede, 2021). to achieve the final policy target, the monetary control instrument in sharia monetary policy does not have a significant difference from the instruments used in conventional monetary policy. in the islamic monetary economy, there is one transmission channel called the pass-through policy rate using the principle of profit-sharing, margin, or fee (acharya, 2012). this path is a modification of the interest rate path in the conventional monetary system. some instruments used in this route are bank indonesia sharia certificates (sbis) and sharia interbank money market (puas). sbis are securities adopted from bank indonesia certificates (sbi), where the sbi interest rate is changed using the sbis yield rate based on the ju'alah contract. meanwhile, puas was adopted from the interbank money market (puab), where the puab interest rate was replaced by using an ima certificate device. the instruments (sbi interest rate, puab interest rate, sbis yield, and puas yield) are short-term money market instruments. these are often used in monetary control to achieve the final target: inflation and actual output (economic growth) as proxied by gdp. sbi is used as bank indonesia's policy rate for transmitting monetary policy. meanwhile, before using the sbis, indonesia implemented a bank indonesia wadiah certificate (swbi) with a wadi'ah contract as the basis. like sbi, swbi represents short-term placements of bank indonesia funds, with additional repaid bonuses that are repaid at maturity based on puas yields. both instruments were issued to absorb excess liquidity from the market (wahyudi & sani, 2014). however, because swbi has several weaknesses, swbi was changed to sbis using a sale agreement starting in april 2008. through these two instruments (sbi and sbis), bank indonesia can influence the tendency of bank financing and funding through the interbank money market, both in the conventional money market (puab) as well as the islamic money market (puas) and, ultimately the cost of funds and the price of financial assets (azizi, 2018). acharya (2014) shows that in a dual financial system, an increase in sbi tends to increase inflation and decrease economic growth, while an increase in sbis has an insignificant effect. bawono et al. (2021) showed that the islamic interbank money market does not significantly affect on inflation and economic growth. several studies have been carried out on the transmission of monetary policy influencing the economy. research (acharya, 2012) found that sbi and sbis harmed inflation in achieving the final inflation target, while research (magdalena & pratomo, 2014; pratama, 2013) shows a positive impact. research by (setiawan & karsinah, 2016) found that puab international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 110-124 113 and puas harmed inflation, while (magdalena & pratomo 2014) got the opposite result. meanwhile, in achieving the ultimate goal of economic growth, research by (wibowo & mubarok (2017) found that sbi and sbis hurt economic growth, while (pratama, 2013; zelina 2018) got the opposite result. research (acharya, 2012; imaduddin, 2019) showed that puab and puas were negatively related to economic growth, while (maharani, 2017; setiawan & karsinah, 2016) found that puab and puas had a positive impact on economic growth. based on the previous research, there are still gaps in research results. therefore, this study will review the topic of monetary policy transmission through the interest rate channel. however, the difference between this research and previous studies is the final target variable used. in most previous studies, the industrial production index is used as a proxy for economic growth, while this study uses gdp. in addition, as far as the author is aware, there are no previous studies analyzing the transmission of dual monetary policy on inflation and economic growth as proxied by gdp. 2. method the study uses a quantitative approach to analyze the transmission of conventional and islamic monetary policies on inflation and economic growth. the population of this study is data published in indonesian economic and financial statistics and the central statistics agency. meanwhile, the samples involved in this study include bank indonesia certificates (sbi), interbank money markets (puab), bank indonesia sharia certificates (sbis), and sharia interbank money markets (puas) from 2002 to 2020. the analytical tool used is vector autoregression (var)/vector error correction model (vecm) to determine the relationship between variables in the model. to use the var model, the data must be stationary at the level. meanwhile, if the level is not stationary, it can be reduced to the first difference. thus, var modeling can be done with the first difference data or with the vecm model if cointegration exists. the mathematical model in this equation is as follows: cpiyt = c + a1iσcpiyt-k + a1iσsbiyt-k + a1iσpuabyt-k + et pdbyt = c + a1iσpdbyt-k + a1iσsbiyt-k + a1iσpuabyt-k + et and cpiyt = c + a1iσcpiyt-k + a1iσsbisyt-k + a1iσpuasyt-k + et pdbyt = c + a1iσpdbyt-k + a1iσsbisyt-k + a1iσpuasyt-k + et this study's testing steps are as follows: first, the cointegration test is used to determine the long-term balance between the observed variables. the determination of cointegration is observed through the trace statistic score. second, analyze the vecm test to see the short-term and long-term significance. third, an impulse response function (irf) analysis was conducted to determine the direction of the relationship and how much influence one endogenous variable had on other endogenous variables in the model formed, as well as to observe how the variables responded to shocks. fourth, forecast error variance decomposition (fevd) analysis is used to determine how much influence certain variables have on endogenous variables and to find out how strongly between variables influence each other in the long term. 114 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 110-124 3. result and discussion cointegration test the cointegration test follows the johansen cointegration test stage. there is a cointegration equation if the trace statistic value is higher than the critical value. based on the cointegration test results, both the cpi and pdb models are cointegrated or have a longterm relationship. so, the appropriate method to analyze the short-term and long-term effects of the two models (cpi and gdp) is to use the vecm method. vector error correction model (vecm) test the vecm model in this study uses a significance level of 0.05 with a critical value of t 1.99. variables can be significant if the value of statistic > critical. the results of the vecm estimation on the cpi model are presented in table 1 (for the long term) and table 2 (for the short term). the short-term relationship in the conventional channel is shown to have an optimum lag of 7, while the sharia channel is 1. the cpi model shows that both conventional and islamic channels significantly influence the long-term coefficient. if the conventional channel, sbi, has a coefficient value of -0.114, which means that if there is an increase in the sbi interest rate of 1%, it will reduce inflation by 0.114%. while the puab coefficient is 0.133, which means that if the puab interest rate increases by 1%, it will increase inflation by 0.133% meanwhile, in the sharia channel, the sbis coefficient value is 0.798. if the change in yield increases by 1%, inflation will increase by 0.798%. meanwhile, the puas coefficient is 0.777. it means that if the return on puas increases by 1%, inflation will decrease by 0.777%. the long-term cpi equation can be written as follows: lncpi = -4.844 – 0.114sbi + 0.133puab lncpi = -5.657 + 0.798sbis – 0.777puas the cointegrated variables adjust towards equilibrium. this adjustment coefficient is from now on referred to as the error correction term (ect) to see the short-term equilibrium of cointegration equation 1 on both channels will correct the long-term adjustment. for conventional channels, the cpi's long-term equilibrium velocity is 90.1%. meanwhile, in the sharia channel, the long-term equilibrium velocity is realized by the cpi and sbis, which are -4.1% and -42.8%, respectively. the estimation results can be seen in table 1. table 1. long-term coefficient

secondary data processed, 2022. the short-term estimation results are presented in table 2. in the conventional channel, the cpi model shows that four variables have a significant effect, namely the sbi variable in the past period, sbi in the past two periods, puab in the past period, and puab in the last two periods. it means that if the sbi interest rate during the 1 and 2 previous periods increases by 1%, it will affect inflation by 0.115% and 0.081%, respectively. then, changes in interbank rates in the first and second periods ago by 1% will affect inflation by 0.126% and 0.077%, respectively. meanwhile, cpi was only influenced by sbis in the past period, with a coefficient value of -0.040. that is, if the sbis yield rate during the previous period increased by 1%, it would cause the current change in inflation to decrease by 0.040%. in total, the results of the shortterm estimation of the cpi model are presented in table 2. table 2. short-term coefficient (cpi model)

for conventional channels, the optimal lag is displayed up to lag 5. meanwhile, the optimal lag on the sharia channel is displayed up to lag 4. in the conventional, in the long run, the variable that significantly affects gdp is the sbi variable with a coefficient value of 0.318. if the sbi interest rate increases by 1%, gdp will increase by 0.318%. meanwhile, in the sharia channel, only the puas variable has a significant long-term effect on gdp, with a coefficient of 1,913. it means that if there is a 1% change in the puas yield, it will increase gdp by 1.913%. for the long-run equation model, gdp is shown in the following equation: lnpdb = -17.209 + 0.318sbi + 0.149puab lnpdb = -18.623 – 0.929sbis + 1.913puas based on the adjustment coefficient, the velocity of long-term equilibrium

in table 4. in the conventional channel, in the gdp model, three variables have a significant effect: sbi in the previous four periods, sbi in the previous five periods, and puab in the previous period. changes in the sbi interest rate in the past four periods of 1% will cause changes in the current gdp to decrease by 0.114%. next, changes in the sbi interest rate in the previous five periods by 1% will cause changes in the current gdp to increase by 0.111%. then, the change in the interbank money market rate in the past period of 1% will increase the current gdp by 0.088%. in the sharia monetary channel, the gdp model shows that in the short term, only the variables of sbis 4 in the previous period and puas 1 in the previous period have a significant effect. if the change in yield on sbis for the previous four periods increases by 1%, it will cause changes in gdp to decrease by 0.044%. also, if the puas yield had changed by 1% in the past period, gdp would have fallen by 0.072%.

for the inflation model (cpi) which shows that all variables in the conventional channel (except cpi), namely sbi and puab, have an impact on reducing inflation and are also permanent. the cpi variable is a variable that has a long-term influence on the cpi response itself, the shock occurred for 30 periods, the next period began to stabilize and permanently positively affect the increase in the cpi itself. meanwhile, the shock effect of conventional variables (sbi and puab) on inflation began to subside and stabilize in the period 33 to 43. on the other hand, in the sharia channel, the cpi shocks last for 5 periods, and the next period the cpi will be responded positively by the cpi itself permanently. the cpi began to respond negatively to the sbis variable shock in periods 2-4, and the cpi response to the sbis shock began to stabilize in the 5th period. the cpi began to respond positively to the puas variable in periods 2 to 10, and in the 11th period it started to stabilize and become permanent. -.06 -.04 -.02 .00 .02 .04 .06 .08 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 lnihk sbi puab response of lnihk to cholesky one s.d. innovations -.04 .00 .04 .08 .12 .16 5 10 15

meanwhile, fluctuations in the sbi variable lasted for up to 30 periods, and so on, and gdp consistently reacted negatively to sbi. irf analysis on the gdp model, sharia variables (sbis and puas) have a positive impact in terms of increasing gdp and are also permanent. the influence of the shocks of sharia variables on gdp began to subside and stabilize in the period 18 to 24. 118 international

results of the analysis show that short-term inflation (cpi) is influenced by sbi in the first and second lags, where for every 1% increase in the sbi interest rate, inflation for that period decreases by 0.115% and 0.081%. meanwhile, in the long term, sbis also have a significant effect on inflation (cpi). this finding is consistent with the existing theory that an increase in interest rates can reduce inflation. an increase in the sbi interest rate can encourage economic actors and the public to invest in securities for speculative purposes rather than for consumption so that the inflation rate will decrease. based on the irf analysis, the sbi interest rate has a permanent impact on reducing the inflation rate. these results support the research conducted by (acharya, 2012) and (zulfa & suseno, 2018). sbi interest rate shocks are able to contain inflation, so this reinforces the conventional economic premise that the sbi interest rate is the primary monetary instrument that can be used to control inflation. meanwhile, the fevd analysis shows that the contribution of the sbi interest rate in 120 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 110-124 restraining inflation (cpi) is 0-4%. the contribution of sbi interest rates is still meager, and this condition is understandable because the contribution that affects the cpi is not only influenced by economic phenomena such as core inflation but also non-core inflation, which tends to be highly volatile so that non-core inflation has a higher contribution to changes in cpi. second, short-term interbank rates have an effect on rising inflation (cpi). likewise, in the long term, interbank rates significantly affect inflation. this result can be understood that when the central bank raises the sbi interest rate, it will be followed by an increase in the interbank money market interest rate, which will have an impact on the inflation rate. irf analysis shows that the shocks that occurred in the interbank rate were responded to negatively by inflation (cpi). these results support research from (setiawan & karsinah, 2016), (saputro & sukmana, 2018), and (zulfa & suseno, 2018). when interbank rates increase, banks will respond by increasing deposit and credit interest rates which will then have an impact on reducing the money supply, thereby reducing the public consumption and reducing inflation. then, the results of the fevd analysis show that the contribution of interbank rates in influencing inflation (cpi) is 86.6%. the contribution of interbank rates up to the end of the period tends to increase, even being the variable with the highest contribution in influencing the inflation rate. this shows that the higher the interbank money market interest rate, the more outstanding its contribution to influencing inflation. third, referring to the vecm results, the sbis variable has a significant effect on inflation in the short term. then, in the long term, sbis yields also have a significant effect on inflation. this indicates that if the rate of return increases, islamic banking will get a more significant profit from its financing, so it has an impact on the consumption sector. meanwhile, the results of the irf analysis show that sbis yields have a negative impact on inflation (cpi). these results are in the channel with research conducted (ascarya, 2012) and (sudarsono, 2017). if there is an increase in sbis yields, islamic banks will respond by channeling funds in the form of sbis. this is done by islamic banks because sbis is considered more profitable when compared to channeling in the form of financing. if islamic banks channel more funds to passive income in sbis, then financing will tend to decrease, and funding in the business sector will be low, so it has a low impact on the inflation rate. the fevd results explain that the contribution of sbis yields in influencing inflation (cpi) until the end of the period is 8.7%. this contribution is still relatively low because, currently, inflation is still heavily influenced by other factors outside the financial sector. fourth, in the short term, the effect of the puas yield on inflation (cpi) is not significant. meanwhile, in the long term, the puas yield has a significant impact on inflation. in the long term, puas has a negative effect on inflation, which means that if there is an increase in the puas yield, it will reduce inflation. furthermore, based on the irf analysis, the cpi responded positively to the puas yield shock. in this case, islamic banks have begun to prioritize transactions in the money market to encourage the consumption sector. these results support the study conducted by (magdalena & pratomo, 2014) and (hadi et al., 2020). although in the initial period, puas experienced a shock that had a fluctuating impact on inflation, it finally experienced a balance until the end of the period. occurs when puas experiences a shock, it will increase inflation. meanwhile, from the results of the fevd analysis, the shock that occurred in the puas yield contributed 7.7% to inflation (cpi). when the imbalance in puas results from increases, international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 110-124 121 the financing channeled to the community will also increase. this is because the funds available in the money market will be purchased with an ima certificate by islamic banks and then channeled as financing so that it will encourage the consumption sector. fifth, in the short term, the sbi interest rate has a significant effect on economic growth (gdp). on the other hand, sbi also has a significant impact on gdp in the long term. in this case, the increase in the sbi interest rate will affect changes in gdp. based on the irf analysis, an increase in the sbi interest rate has a negative effect on economic growth. these results are in accordance with the findings of previous research conducted (julaihah & insukindro, 2004), (acharya, 2012), and (wibowo & mubarok, 2017). this indicates that an increase in sbi interest rates will affect interest rates on financial markets, such as lending rates. an increase in loan interest rates will reduce investment, and the growth rate will also decrease. meanwhile, from the fevd analysis, it was found that shocks to the sbi interest rate variable contributed to gdp, which was entirely satisfactory, although still relatively small, at 7.8% in the final period. sixth, in the short term, the interbank rate variable significantly affects economic growth (gdp). meanwhile, in the long term, the interbank rate does not have a significant effect on gdp. the interbank rate can be understood as a short-term instrument used to meet banking liquidity. therefore, changes in the interbank money market interest rate will only affect banking behavior in the short term, while to affect the economy in the real sector, the transmission must be in the form of credit. next, the results of the irf analysis show that the shocks that occur in the interbank rate variable show a positive reaction from gdp. this finding confirms the results of studies that have been carried out (maharani, 2017). these results indicate that the increase in the interbank rate by the monetary authority can improve economic performance. in addition, from the fevd analysis, it was found that the interbank rate variable had a higher contribution than the sbi interest rate in influencing gdp by 14.5%. seventh, from the short-term estimation results, it is known that sbis yields have a significant effect on economic growth (gdp). meanwhile, in the long term, sbis yields have no significant effect on gdp. the effect of sbis on gdp is not significant because, in calculating gdp, it is more directly related to investment in the real sector than investment in the financial sector. based on irf analysis, gdp responds positively to puas yields. the results of this study confirm the previous findings of (acharya, 2012) and (bawono et al., 2021). in short, it can be said that the increase in sbis yields carried out by the monetary authority is quite effective in improving economic performance, in this case, economic growth (gdp). then, the results of the fevd analysis show that the contribution of sbis to gdp is 2.9%. it can be seen that this condition has a substantial impact on changes in banking behavior where the high and low yields of sbis are used both for funding and investing in sbis instruments. eighth, based on the vecm analysis, in the short term, puas has a significant effect on economic growth (gdp). in the long term, puas has also been shown to have a significant effect on gdp. this result can be understood that the increase in puas yields will affect the level of profit sharing in islamic banking so that it will attract public interest in making productive loans at islamic banks, which will ultimately increase economic growth. furthermore, the results obtained from the irf analysis show that gdp responds positively to the shock on the puas variable. the results of this study confirm the results of the study (acharya, 2010) (setiawan & karsinah, 2016) and (bawono et al., 2021). it shows 122 international journal of islamic business and economics (ijibec), 6(2) december 2022, 110-124 that the increase in puas yields carried out by the monetary authority is effective in increasing economic growth. next, based on the fevd test, it can be seen that the puas variable has a higher contribution than the sbis variable to changes in gdp, which is 25.5%. overall, the sharia channel variable has a significant role in encouraging economic growth. 4. conclusion this study analyzes the effect of conventional and sharia monetary policy transmission using the sbi, puab, sbis, and puas instruments on inflation and economic growth (gdp). by using the var/vecm analysis tool, in the short term and long term, all variables in the conventional channel and the sharia channel affect inflation (cpi), except puas, which has no effect in the short term. meanwhile, economic growth (gdp) in the short and long term is influenced by all variables in the conventional channel and the sharia channel, except for the sbis and puab variables which have no effect in the long term. based on irf analysis, the shock that occurred in sbi, puab, and sbis was responded negatively by inflation (cpi), while puas responded positively. then, economic growth (gdp) responded positively to shocks that occurred in the puab, sbis, and puas variables, while sbi responded negatively. furthermore, from the results of the fevd analysis, the conventional channel variable has a higher contribution to changes in inflation (cpi) than the sharia channel variable. meanwhile, the sharia channel variable has a higher contribution to changes in economic growth (gdp) compared to the conventional channel variable. based on the results, we suggest that policymakers evaluate policies regarding the transmission of islamic monetary policy that does not refer to conventional interest rates, especially the sbis instrument. thus, it is expected to be able to control inflation and encourage maximum economic growth. meanwhile, this research is limited to the transmission of dual monetary policy on the interest rate channel with sbi, puab, sbis, and puas instruments. therefore, further research that analyzes the interest rate path is expected to consider other economic variables such as credit interest rates, total conventional bank loans, financing yields, and total islamic bank financing. the hope is to further clarify the flow of transmission of monetary policy; both conventional and sharia can provide more comprehensive information regarding the mechanism of double monetary policy transmission. acknowledgement we would like to thank all for this study. we also thank the reviewer

x . p h p / i j i b e c / article info article history: keywords: bmt; customers’ trust; sharia compliance abstract this study is aimed at investigating people’s perceptions of baitul maal wa tamwil (bmt). since its first existence, bmt has operated with full of both positive and negative dynamics. negative perceptions and stigma are adhered to this kind of microfinance institution. therefore, this present study is also conducted to explain well-established steps in eliminating those perceptions. for bmt, people’s trust constitutes the foremost asset to exist, particularly in the process of collecting savings from customers. this research employed a qualitative-field approach by using observation, interview, and documentation. the results of this study reveal that based on the people’s negative stigma, bmt was considered resembling a conventional financial institution applying the principle of profit sharing, in which the customers pay more. several steps to eliminate these perceptions coped with socializing groups of people, promoting baitul maal with soft loans, carrying out a door-to-door marketing strategy, and empowering the roles of sharia supervisory board (dps).
