Abstract

This study analyzes how Islamic financial institutions can encourage inclusive economic growth, reduce social inequality, and create added value for all stakeholders. In this study, researchers used a descriptive qualitative method. The data source used library research, drawing from various scholarly materials such as books, peer-reviewed journals, and official reports. These sources were carefully selected based on their relevance and credibility, and the data was analyzed through thematic analysis to identify key insights and patterns. The results of the study showed that price distortions were caused by several factors including cartels and trader associations, which manipulate supply and pricing; ikhtikar (hoarding of goods to drive up prices); talaqqi ruqban (intercepting rural sellers before they reach the market to buy goods at unfair prices); tadlis (concealment of product defects); taghrir (misleading information to deceive buyers); and bay najasy (artificial price inflation through false bidding). Islamic financial institutions have a strategic role in preventing market distortions caused by usury practices by offering Sharia-compliant financial products that emphasize profit-and-loss sharing, ethical investment, and risk-sharing. Empirical evidence from studies on Islamic finance shows that these mechanisms contribute to price stability and more equitable wealth distribution. Islamic financial institutions can encourage sustainable economic growth without harming any party by implementing a fair and transparent profit-sharing system. However, to achieve this goal, government support is needed in the form of conducive regulations and comprehensive public education campaigns. These campaigns should focus on raising awareness about the principles and benefits of Islamic financial practices, promoting ethical market behavior, and providing training programs for market participants to ensure proper implementation of Shariah-compliant transactions.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of public understanding and trust levels on low fintech-based financial inclusion in Asahan Regency. The phenomenon of inequality between high digital penetration and low fintech adoption in rural areas is the main research background. The approach used is quantitative with a survey method of 100 respondents spread across 25 sub-districts, using a Likert scale-based questionnaire instrument. Data were analyzed using SmartPLS 4.0 software with the Structural Equation Modeling Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS) approach. The results of the study indicate that public understanding and trust have a significant influence on digital financial inclusion. This is proven through hypothesis testing with t-statistic values ​​above 1.96 and p-value <0.05, respectively. The R-Square value of 0.488 indicates that the two independent variables explain almost all of the variation in financial inclusion. These findings strengthen the Technology Acceptance Model theory and consumer trust theory, and emphasize the importance of literacy strategies and consumer protection in supporting financial inclusion. This study also develops a micro index of fintech inclusion based on the dimensions of access, use, and service quality. These findings are expected to be the basis of policies for local governments, regulators, and industry players in expanding inclusive finance in remote areas more effectively

Abstract

Digital transformation in zakat management is inevitable amidst the development of Islamic financial technology. This study aims to systematically examine the influence of digital technology on the efficiency of zakat management in Indonesia and other Muslim countries. Using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach based on PRISMA 2020, this article analyzes 10 scientific literature published between 2015–2025. The results of the study show that the use of technology such as QRIS, SIMBA, digital wallets, and Islamic fintech can increase the operational efficiency of zakat institutions, especially in terms of service speed, transparency, and cost reduction. However, this effectiveness is not evenly distributed because there are still obstacles in the readiness of human resources, infrastructure, and institutional integration. The study also found that there is no standardized efficiency evaluation model among zakat managers. This study recommends the importance of cross-sector collaboration, strengthening the digital capacity of amil, and integrating digital systems between institutions to create a more efficient and sustainable digital zakat ecosystem. These findings are expected to be a reference in policy making and developing a digital zakat system that is adaptive to the challenges of the 5.0 era

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of public Understanding and Trust on the low Financial Inclusion of Medan City residents in using mobile banking in the cashless society era. A quantitative approach was employed, using a survey technique with questionnaires distributed to 100 randomly selected respondents based on the Slovin formula. Data were analyzed using SmartPLS 4.0, with validity, reliability, and path analysis tests. The results reveal that public Understanding (digital financial literacy) and Trust significantly and positively influence Financial Inclusion through mobile banking adoption in Medan City. Despite improvements in technological infrastructure and access, challenges remain in user knowledge and trust in financial technology. Public Understanding, which encompasses both technical use and the ability to make informed financial decisions, was found to be a key determinant. Trust in digital financial services, influenced by factors such as data security, transaction clarity, and transparency, also plays a crucial role in encouraging mobile banking use. Statistical analysis indicates that these variables explain 48.8% of the variation in Financial Inclusion, aligning with the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and Trust-Based Acceptance Model (TBAM), as well as previous studies
