This research aims to analyze the variables that determine the capital structure of Islamic bank with Non Performing Financing (NPF) as a moderating variable using the Trade Off Theory and Pecking Order Theory approaches. A quantitative method was used, analyzing panel data from the quarterly financial statement of 12 Indonesia Islamic banks form 2001-2003, using Eviews-12 software. The independent variables include bank size, profitability, Financing to Deposit Ratio (FDR), and asset growth, while the dependent variable is the Debt to Equity Ratio (DER). The study results imply that according to Trade Off Theory, Islamic bank in Indonesia balance the tax benefits of debt against bankruptcy costs.
