The rapid development of Islamic banking in Indonesia faces significant challenges in maintaining liquidity and profitability amidst dynamic capital market conditions. The urgency of this study arises from the need to examine whether traditional financial ratios, such as the Financing to Deposit Ratio (FDR) and Return on Equity (ROE), play a decisive role in influencing investment decisions, which are proxied by the Price to Earning Ratio (PER). The main objective of this research is to empirically test the effect of liquidity and profitability, both partially and simultaneously, on investment decisions in Islamic commercial banks listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the 2021–2025 period. This study adopts an associative design with a quantitative approach, utilizing secondary data from financial reports obtained from the IDX, and analyzed using multiple linear regression on 68 observation samples. The findings reveal that neither liquidity nor profitability significantly influence investment decisions, either partially or simultaneously. These results suggest that investors in the Islamic banking sector tend to prioritize non-financial factors such as sharia compliance, governance, macroeconomic conditions, and ESG trends, rather than conventional financial indicators. In conclusion, this research extends the understanding of the limitations of Signaling Theory in the sharia context and recommends the development of a more holistic investment evaluation model. Future studies are encouraged to incorporate non-financial variables for a more comprehensive analysis.

Production theory becomes the most important part to be studied in meeting individual needs for goods. However existing production has not been able to meet the needs of each individual, so uneven production causes many regions to lack food and other needs. his research is a literature research with descriptive qualitative analysis. Data sources are obtained through searching internet sources in the form of Qur'an and Hadith sources, books, national and international articles, and online news. The analysis technique used is content analysiswhich focuses on the perspective of Islamic economics. This study concludes that the theory of production in conventional economics is based on the Homo Economicus paradigm independent of moral guidance. However, Production Theory from an Islamic perspective is based on the Homo Islamicus Paradigm which implements the objectives of sharia (maqashid sharia). In Islamic economics, research on distribution has always been a heated debate because it talks not only about economic aspects but also about social and political aspects. Therefore, to this day, this research has attracted the attention of Islamic and conventional economic thinkers. The purpose of this research is to interpret and provide an explanation of data related to current circumstances, public perspectives and attitudes, conflicts between two or more situations, influences on certain conditions, and other factors.

This study explores the intellectual and thematic evolution of green sukuk research within Islamic sustainable finance from 2015 to 2025. Using a hybrid methodological design that integrates the PRISMA-guided Systematic Literature Review with Watase Uake network analysis, the study identifies 17 core Scopus-indexed articles that collectively define the field’s conceptual and empirical development. Results reveal a three-phase evolution: (1) a formative stage emphasizing ethical legitimacy and Sharia compliance; (2) a transitional phase integrating pricing efficiency, market risk, and policy frameworks; and (3) a maturity phase characterized by econometric modeling, behavioral-finance integration, and sustainability governance. Thematic clusters extracted from bibliometric mapping include financial performance and market dynamics, institutional legitimacy and policy frameworks, behavioral intention and investor psychology, and technological innovation and ESG disclosure. Despite methodological advancement, the literature remains geographically concentrated in Malaysia and Indonesia and exhibits theoretical fragmentation across behavioral, financial, and institutional models. Findings highlight key research gaps involving contradictory evidence on yield–risk relationships, inconsistent behavioral determinants of investment intention, and insufficient integration of moderating or mediating mechanisms. The study advances theoretical pluralism by connecting the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), Institutional and Legitimacy Theory, and Resource-Based View (RBV) into an integrated model explaining how legitimacy, behavior, and strategic capability jointly drive green sukuk adoption. Policy implications emphasize the need for harmonized regulation, behavioral incentives, and digital transparency to strengthen credibility and accelerate sustainable-finance transformation in line with SDGs 7 and 13.

This article discusses the concept of acquiring wealth through wrongful means from an Islamic perspective through an interdisciplinary study approach. In Islam, wealth is viewed as a trust that must be acquired and utilized in accordance with sharia provisions, so that any form of acquisition carried out through unlawful means is viewed as an act that damages the public interest and violates religious provisions. This study uses a qualitative method with a literature study approach to analyze the forms of acquiring wealth through wrongful means, such as usury, gharar, risywah, tadlis, and maysir, and their impacts on various aspects of life. The analysis is conducted through the perspectives of Islamic law, economics, psychology, and socio-culture. The results of the study indicate that acquiring wealth through wrongful means not only harms individuals but also affects the social, economic, and moral stability of society. In addition, this practice is viewed as a form of deviation from the essential function of wealth in Islam, namely as a means to realize the common good. This study emphasizes the importance of implementing sharia values in economic and social practices as a preventive measure against injustice and injustice in society.

This community service program was held at SD Negeri 102028 Dusun II Sei Parit, Sei Rampah District, Serdang Bedagai Regency, with a focus on applying the principles of sharia economic justice. This goal is achieved through education about the prohibition of usury and savings initiatives from an early age. This activity was motivated by the lack of Islamic financial literacy among children, especially related to the risk of usury and the urgency of frugal behavior and financial responsibility. The method chosen is a participatory-educational approach, which includes socialization, simulation and habituation, prioritizing the active involvement of students. The activity is divided into two main phases, namely usury education and saving education, utilizing animated films, educational games and picture stories. The impact of this service shows an increase in students' insight into the concept of riba, discipline in frugality, and the growth of awareness to manage money wisely according to Islamic guidance. Children are now beginning to understand that money is a mandate that must be used correctly and halal. In addition, this program also encourages the formation of the character of responsibility, trust and justice in the participants. Therefore, this program makes a significant contribution in building a children's mentality based on the principles of sharia economic justice and is worthy of being used as a prototype of Islamic financial education at the elementary school level.

This study aims to examine various factors that influence customers' engagement in choosing the Cicil Emas product as a form of long-term investment at Bank Muamalat Purwokerto. This research is based on the increasing trend of gold investment in the community caused by the increase in gold prices and awareness of the importance of halal investment according to sharia principles. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through interviews, observations, and documentation of Bank Muamalat Purwokerto. The results show that customer interest is influenced by several main factors, namely trust in sharia principles through the murabahah contract, a positive perception of gold as a stable investment asset, the ease of installment procedures that are flat and transparent, and the efficiency of the payment system through autodebit. In addition, social factors such as family recommendations and active promotions from the marketing department also strengthen customer interest.

With increasing public awareness of sharia investment and the large market potential in Purwokerto, the Cicil Emas product has strong prospects for continued growth as a safe and Islamically-compliant long-term investment instrument.

Human Rights (HAM) are fundamental rights that must be protected by both the state and society. In Islam, human rights are divine in nature, emphasizing justice and equality. Ma’had Al-Zaytun plays a vital role in instilling these values through an educational system aligned with Law No. 39 of 1999 on Human Rights. This study is important to explore the synergy between religion and law in fulfilling human rights. The purpose of this research is to identify the role of Ma’had Al-Zaytun in promoting human rights based on Law No. 39 of 1999 and the principles of Maqasid Shariah. The study uses a descriptive approach with a literature study method. Primary data are obtained from Law No. 39 of 1999 and Jasser Auda’s book Maqasid al-Shariah as Philosophy of Islamic Law: A Systems Approach, while secondary data are collected from journals, theses, dissertations, documents, regulations, and previous research related to the topic. The findings show that Ma’had Al-Zaytun plays a significant role in fulfilling human rights from both the perspective of Law No. 39 of 1999 and Maqasid Shariah. According to the law, Ma’had Al-Zaytun integrates Islamic values and human rights principles into its educational system and daily activities. The rights to life, welfare, religious freedom, education, and respect for others are implemented in daily practice.

This study discusses the qardh contract from a classical perspective and discusses the transformation of the practice of Sharia digital lending that is developing in the fintech era. Qardh is one type of approach to pious to Allah and is a type of mu'amalah that is characterized by assistance (ta'awun) to another party to meet their needs. In classical fiqh, Qardh is a loan contract with the condition that the borrowed and repaid are exactly the same and are returned at a time mutually agreed upon at the time of the contract without any excess when returning it. However, the development of financial technology has presented a capital for digital lending services in accordance with the concept of Sharia. This study aims to analyze the differences between the qardh contract in classical and contemporary fiqh, including its implementation in a contract in accordance with Sharia principles. The results of the study indicate that Sharia digital lending can use the qardh contract as a legal basis, but must still implement it with the principle of qardh hasan, namely avoiding elements of usury and gharar, and adapting to modern regulations. The form of the qardh contract in digital sharia lending products illustrates contemporary fiqh efforts in responding to the lives of modern society.

The Sharia Supervisory Board (SSB) plays a crucial role in ensuring that Islamic insurance companies operate in accordance with sharia principles. This study aims to analyze the role of the SSB in overseeing products, contract types, and risk management practices used by Islamic insurance companies. To conduct this analysis, a literature review was used, compiling fatwas from the National Sharia Council (DSN-MUI), regulations issued by the Financial Services Authority (OJK), and academic references on sharia governance. The results indicate that the SSB's role extends beyond issuing fatwas to conducting preventive and corrective supervision of the implementation of contracts such as tabarru' (a type of contract), wakalah bil ujrah (a type of contract), and mudharabah (a type of contract). The SSB also plays a role in evaluating investment feasibility to ensure compliance with halal principles. Although the presence of the SSB increases the trust of insurance participants, challenges remain, such as the limited number of sharia experts, the completeness of independent supervision, and the public's lack of understanding of the SSB's role. Therefore, capacity building of the SSB and strong cooperation with regulators are needed to ensure a more credible and sustainable Islamic insurance system.
