This paper explores the potential of integrating Sharia-compliant financial technology (fintech) innovations with sukuk issuance to drive sustainable infrastructure development in emerging economies. With the rise of digital transformation and the increasing focus on sustainable development, the Islamic financial system provides a unique opportunity to reconcile financial innovation with ethical principles. The study highlights how Sharia fintech platforms, such as crowdfunding and blockchain, can enhance the efficiency, transparency, and accessibility of sukuk as a financial instrument. At the same time, sukuk addresses the significant financing gap in infrastructure development while adhering to Islamic principles, such as avoiding riba (interest), gharar (uncertainty), and maysir (speculation). Through a comprehensive literature review and empirical analysis, this research identifies the gaps in existing approaches to financing sustainable infrastructure in emerging economies and proposes a novel integration framework. Findings suggest that the convergence of Sharia fintech and sukuk can facilitate financial inclusion, attract a broader investor base, and accelerate infrastructure financing. Furthermore, this integration supports the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by ensuring that financial tools align with social justice and environmental stewardship. This study contributes to the growing body of knowledge on Islamic finance by providing actionable insights for policymakers, financial institutions, and fintech developers. It emphasizes the importance of regulatory frameworks and cross-sector collaboration to unlock the full potential of Sharia-complian

Islamic microfinance institutions (IMFIs) in Indonesia have experienced notable progress in line with the growing public interest in Islamic economic principles. However, the competition between Islamic and conventional microfinance sectors is becoming increasingly intense. The LKMS BTM Artha Surya Cooperative, located in Tegal Regency, is currently facing pressure due to this competitive environment and must formulate an effective strategy to sustain and grow its business. This study aims to formulate a strategy using the Blue Ocean Strategy framework as an alternative to overcoming business rivalry. A qualitative approach was employed, gathering primary data through interviews and field observations at BTM Artha Surya Tegal, supported by secondary sources from relevant literature. The findings reveal that BTM Artha Surya has undergone transformation into Baitul Tanwil Muhammadiyah (BTM) Artha Surya and now provides various Sharia-compliant financing services. This research further elaborates on the murabahah financing process, including the recognition, measurement, and disclosure practices implemented in the financial statements of BTM Artha Surya Tegal.

The objective of this study is to examine and compare the financial performance of Islamic banks and conventional banks in Indonesia during the 2019–2023 period. This research is motivated by the rapid growth of the Islamic banking industry; however, its market share remains relatively small compared to conventional banks. The study evaluates various financial ratio indicators, including Return on Assets (ROA), Net Interest Margin (NIM), Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR), BOPO, Non-Performing Loans (NPL), and Non-Performing Financing (NPF), using a quantitative approach and comparative method. Data were collected from the annual financial reports of several major banks selected through purposive sampling. The results of the analysis indicate that conventional banks generally outperform in terms of profitability and operational efficiency, as reflected in the ROA and BOPO ratios. On the other hand, Islamic banks demonstrate more stable financing quality and liquidity, as indicated by relatively stable NPF and FDR ratios. These performance differences stem from the distinct operational principles of the two banking systems: interest-based operations for conventional banks and profit-sharing principles for Islamic banks. The study concludes that a more comprehensive evaluation method, integrating both sharia compliance and financial elements, is essential to provide a fair and accurate assessment of bank performance. The findings are expected to be valuable for regulators, academics, and industry practitioners in formulating policies that support a more inclusive and sustainable banking system.

Technology-based financial innovation has led to the emergence of crowdfunding platforms, which are now expanding into the realm of Islamic finance. This study aims to examine how the principles of Islamic economics are integrated into Sharia-compliant crowdfunding practices, particularly in financing Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia. The research employs a qualitative descriptive approach through literature review and case studies of several prominent Sharia crowdfunding platforms in Indonesia. The findings show that Sharia crowdfunding not only adheres to Islamic principles such as the prohibition of riba (usury) and gharar (uncertainty), but also applies concepts of justice, transparency, and partnership within contract structures. However, challenges related to Sharia financial literacy, regulation, and public trust remain significant obstacles. This study recommends enhancing Sharia financial literacy and strengthening regulations to support a sustainable Sharia crowdfunding ecosystem.

MSME actors in Indonesia still face various obstacles in business management, especially in the aspects of marketing and financial bookkeeping. This condition has a direct impact on the low level of bankability of MSMEs to access financing from banking institutions, especially Islamic banks. This activity aims to provide assistance to MSME actors, especially Toko Cipta Swara Elektronik, to be able to prepare basic financial statements and implement simple digital marketing strategies. The method used in this activity is the ABCD (Audience, Behavior, Condition, Degree) approach, with the implementation in the form of lectures, discussions, hands-on practice, and simulations. The results of the activity show that partners are able to prepare two types of basic financial statements (cash flow and profit and loss), design digital marketing strategies through social media, and understand the requirements for applying for Islamic bank financing. This assistance has proven to be effective in increasing the capacity of partners administratively and strategically, as well as opening up greater opportunities to access sharia financing services.

This study aims to determine the financing scheme and implementation of PSAK 402 murabahah on gold installment products in Islamic banks. The research method used is a literature study and also observation and interviews conducted at Bank BSI KCP Cimahi Amir Mahmud while conducting a Field Professional Practice (PPL). Gold installment products are still rarely known by the public, especially gold installment products at Islamic banks. Many people still think that Islamic banks and conventional banks are the same. In fact, in practice, the differences are very real. The gold installment scheme carried out at Bank Syariah Indonesia uses a murabahah sale and purchase agreement that is in accordance with sharia principles. Likewise, the accounting treatment for gold sales and purchases at Indonesian Islamic banks must still follow the standards set by the Financial Accounting Standards Board of the Indonesian Institute of Accountants (DSAK IAI), namely PSAK 402. This study will analyze the suitability of PSAK 402 Murabahah with the practices that occur at Bank Syariah Indonesia KCP Cimahi Amir Mahmud.

This scientific article comprehensively investigates the fundamental principles of Fiqh Muamalah governing Islamic economic transactions, focusing on three primary areas: sale (bay'), debt-financing (dayn), and leasing (ijarah). This research aims to analyze the Sharia conceptual framework underlying each contract, including its pillars, conditions, and legal implications, as well as to identify crucial prohibitions such as gharar (ambiguity), riba (interest/unlawful increment), and maysir (speculation). Furthermore, this article explores the relevance and challenges of applying these principles within the dynamic context of the modern economy, characterized by financial innovation, digital technology, and globalization. Through an in-depth literature study and a comparative analysis of classical and contemporary scholars' interpretations, this research examines how ethical Islamic principles such as justice ('adl), mutual consent (taradhi), and public interest (maslahah) can be integrated into current business practices. Selected case studies on e-commerce transactions, digital lending platforms, and technology-based leasing models are analyzed to illustrate the challenges and potential solutions in applying Fiqh Muamalah. This article concludes by offering a perspective on the importance of contextual reinterpretation and the innovation of Islamic financial products to ensure the relevance of Fiqh Muamalah in addressing global economic challenges while upholding Islamic values.

This study aims to analyze market sentiment towards Gold Financing Products (PKE) in Islamic banking before and after the Trump Effect phenomenon using the text mining method. This technique involves extracting information from unstructured text data to then be visualized and analyzed using the Natural Language Processing (NLP) approach and a RoBERTa-based classification model. Data was collected through web scraping from the X application with the help of API and processed using Google Colab. From a total of 4,074 tweets analyzed, it was found that the majority of public sentiment was neutral (59%), followed by negative (24%) and positive (17%). This reflects the public's tendency to discuss informatively rather than emotionally, although there was a spike in negative sentiment in certain periods indicating sensitivity to global dynamics, especially the impact of the Trump Effect on gold prices. The resulting wordcloud reveals key topics such as gold prices, buying and selling activities, and institutions such as Pegadaian Syariah and BSI. Terms such as "sharia", "riba", and "principles" emphasize the importance of Islamic financial values ​​in public perception. The results of this study indicate that text mining-based sentiment analysis is effective in capturing the dynamics of public opinion in real-time and can be a strategic tool for Islamic financial institutions in responding to market changes.

This research discusses the application of musyarakah contracts as a sharia financing solution for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in the midst of digital economic development. MSMEs have a crucial role in sustaining the Indonesian economy, but still experience difficulties in accessing fair and sustainable financing. The musyarakah agreement, with its partnership and profit-sharing principles, is considered to be in line with the character of MSMEs that prioritize cooperation and justice. Through a qualitative approach based on a literature study, this research explores the potential, regulatory challenges, and strategies to strengthen the implementation of digital musyarakah. The results of the analysis show that digitalization offers great opportunities in promoting Islamic financial inclusion, but is still constrained by low digital literacy, limited infrastructure, and weak supervision of sharia principles. Therefore, a strategy is needed that includes improving education, developing Islamic financial technology, and collaboration between regulators, financial service providers, and MSME players. This study concludes that the successful implementation of digital musyarakah requires an integrated approach so that MSMEs are able to access Islamic financing independently, fairly and sustainably.

In order to improve the development of Islamic businesses, business actors are advised to improve their understanding of sharia principles, develop innovative products that meet market needs, and implement ethical marketing strategies. The government needs to take supportive policies, such as issuing regulations that facilitate the development of Islamic businesses, providing education and training programs for business actors, and facilitating access to financing through financial institutions that offer Islamic products. For future research, it is recommended to conduct case studies on successful sharia business actors, analyze the impact of government policies on the growth of this industry, and conduct comparisons with other countries that have more advanced sharia industries to gain insights and best practices that can be applied.

This study aims to explore the extent to which the application of accounting in the musyarakah contract affects the success of micro-business financing. The research was conducted at one of the Islamic Rural Financing Banks (BPRS) in Palembang. A qualitative approach was used to gain a deep understanding of the role of accounting in the implementation of the musyarakah contract, with a focus on the processes of recording, reporting, and financial supervision of micro-financing. The results indicate that the proper application of accounting in the musyarakah contract significantly contributes to the success of the financing. This is reflected in increased transparency, accountability, and the ability of micro-businesses to manage finances more effectively. The study recommends that BPRS intensify accounting support and education for customers to maximize the benefits of musyarakah financing.

This study aims to analyze the competitive advantage strategy of Islamic Banks using the Porter's Five Forces approach, which is used to understand the competitive position of Islamic Banks in facing the dynamics of the financial industry that continues to grow. This study includes qualitative research methods with the approach of Field research and Library research, which are supported by interviews or observations as the main data collection techniques. The results of the study indicate that the Threat of New Entrants BSI Karang Kobar is aware of the threat of new entrants and faces internal challenges, especially in the marketing aspect which is still low. Customer strength is shown through the influence of satisfaction with products and employee behavior on loyalty, especially on flagship products such as KPR, gold installments, and micro financing. Supplier strength shows that there is a great opportunity for suppliers to establish partnerships with Islamic financial institutions. The threat of substitute products has not been found directly, but digital transformation to the Byond By BSI platform is a concern. In industrial competition, BSI Karang Kobar admits that it still faces challenges, such as limited economies of scale compared to conventional banks. Thus, the application of sharia principles in the formulation of business strategies allows Islamic banks to build customer loyalty and create sustainable competitive advantages. Porter's Five Forces approach has proven to be relevant and effective in helping Islamic banks formulate adaptive and valuable strategies in facing competition in the modern financial industry.

The research aims to examine how sharia-based financing schemes contribute to the development and sustainability of MSMEs. This qualitative-descriptive study used literature review and documentation methods. Findings indicate that Islamic microfinance through contracts such as murabahah and mudharabah significantly enhances business productivity and financial independence of MSME actors. It also strengthens ethical business behavior and local economic growth. However, implementation challenges remain, particularly in terms of financial literacy and institutional outreach. The study recommends broader digital-based Islamic financial inclusion to reach underserved communities. These results are relevant for stakeholders interested in sustainable economic empowerment through sharia finance.

Waqf is an act of worship that has a social and economic pattern because in the development of Islamic civilisation, from the development of science to its heyday, it cannot be separated from the role of Rasullulah and his companions who continued to struggle to spread Islam throughout the world, one of which was by using the waqf method because the waqf property or object is often used as a centre for the development of science and Islam in ancient times, for example the construction of mosque buildings and financing wars. Because waqf is an act of worship that is highly recommended for every Muslim. In addition, waqf worship is also explained in the Koran that people who endow their assets for the benefit of the ummah who have benefits, the rewards will continue to flow even though the person has died, which makes people flock to carry out waqf worship. However, it is not uncommon for there to be a lot of abuse committed by nazirs, starting from their unprofessional attitude because nazirs are often used as additional income for them to hoard wealth. So it is very important to find a nadzhir as a zakat manager who has a trustworthy nature because actually this waqf must continue to be developed to be more productive and useful, therefore the Indonesian government continues to make efforts to revise the rules regarding nazir because there are still many irregularities committed largely due to weak administrative sanctions and criminal sanctions for them.

Islamic financial management is a crucial element in sustaining the growth of the Islamic banking industry in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze how Islamic financial management practices are carried out in national banking by referring to the regulations set by OJK, Bank Indonesia, and DSN-MUI. Using a qualitative-descriptive approach, this study examines policy documents, regulatory frameworks, and operational practices of Islamic financial institutions. The results of the study show that the implementation of Islamic financial management has adopted Islamic principles through the structure of fund raising, financing distribution, and risk and compliance governance. However, implementation in the field still faces various obstacles, both from the internal side such as limited human resources and gaps in understanding of regulations, as well as from the external side in the form of accelerated digitalization, weak coordination between authorities, and legal uncertainty. This research emphasizes the need to strengthen the capacity of industry players, adaptive regulatory updates, and institutional synergy so that the Islamic financial system can grow sustainably and in line with sharia principles.

PT Bank Syariah's use of mudharabah concepts in Islamic accounting is examined in this paper. An agreement for profit sharing between the fund manager (mudharib) and the fund owner (shahibul maal) is known as mudharabah. The purpose of this research is to investigate how well mudharabah concepts align with the National Sharia Council's Fatwa and PSAK No. 105. The results show that PT Bank Syariah has applied mudharabah accounting principles in accordance with PSAK 105 in measuring, recognizing, presenting, and disclosing mudharabah financing transactions. However, the implementation of mudharabah pillars and conditions has not fully complied with the Fatwa of the National Sharia Council. Transaction recording uses the completion date method and cash recognition. Mudharabah investments are presented at their carrying value. Nevertheless, the portion of mudharabah financing is still smaller compared to murabahah contracts. This study concludes that PT Bank Syariah needs to improve the conformity of mudharabah principles with the Fatwa of the National Sharia Council.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of sanctions against wealthy customers who delay payments in the perspective of DSN-MUI Fatwa No. 17/DSN-MUI/IX/2000. The study was conducted at PT. BPRS Alwashliyah Gunung Krakatau Medan with a normative and empirical legal approach. The results of the study indicate that the application of sanctions against customers who delay payments is an effort by banks to maintain the smoothness of the financing system. The application of the DSN-MUI fatwa provides a legal basis for Islamic banks in imposing sanctions on wealthy customers who neglect to fulfill their obligations. This fatwa also strengthens the position of banks in the Indonesian civil law system.
