This study aims to analyze the role of Baitul Maal wa Tamwil (BMT) as an Islamic microfinance institution in eliminating loan shark practices in communities, particularly in Java and Sumatra. Loan shark practices persist due to the ease and speed of loan disbursement, despite the high interest rates that entrap small communities in difficult-to-escape debt cycles.

Child exploitation in Indonesia, especially by parents in the practice of begging, is a serious problem that violates children's human rights. This research analyzes law enforcement against criminal acts of child exploitation based on Law No. 23/2002 on Child Protection, which prohibits economic exploitation and provides strict sanctions.

The results show that the lack of legal awareness and rehabilitation support for victims hinders the effectiveness of protection. Therefore, collaboration between the government, law enforcement officials, and the community is needed to raise awareness about children's rights, strengthen law enforcement, and provide sustainable social interventions. With concrete steps, it is hoped that the protection of children from exploitation can be effectively realized.
