<![CDATA[The practice of buying and selling sengon trees with delayed felling in Sumber Torak Hamlet, Sidogedung Batu Village, Bawean, Gresik, is a form of muamalah that has developed to meet local economic needs. In this practice, the buyer pays the agreed price in cash upon contract execution, while the trees remain standing until the agreed time for felling. This study aims to examine the practice, identify the factors that cause delays in felling, and analyze its compliance with Sharia Economic Law. Using an empirical qualitative approach and case study method, data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews with five sellers and buyers, and documentation. The findings show that delayed felling is influenced by the buyer’s time constraints, rainy weather, plantation accessibility, labor availability, and transportation efficiency. From the perspective of Sharia Economic Law, the practice is classified as mubah (permissible) because it fulfills the essential elements and validity requirements of a sale contract. It is based on mutual consent (an-taradhin), involves clearly defined, harvest-ready trees aged 5–6 years, avoids gharar and ijon, and provides mutual benefit (al-maslahah) to both parties.]]>
