<![CDATA[This study aims to analyze the implementation of ijarah (rental) contracts in boarding houses and examine the extent of consumer protection provided to tenants by boarding house owners in Nagari Kubang Putih. The research employs a qualitative field study approach, focusing on the empirical realities of contract implementation, payment mechanisms, and the provision of boarding house facilities. Primary data were collected through interviews and direct observations involving boarding house owners and tenants. Secondary data were obtained from Law Number 8 of 1999 concerning Consumer Protection, literature on fiqh muamalah, and relevant previous studies. Data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model, which includes data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that most boarding house rental transactions are conducted through simple verbal agreements without written contracts or official payment receipts. Information regarding facilities and rental terms is generally communicated only in broad terms, creating potential misunderstandings between parties. From the perspective of fiqh muamalah, such practices do not fully comply with the principles of transparency, certainty, and trustworthiness required in ijarah contracts. The study concludes that greater contractual clarity, transparent payment procedures, and a balanced fulfillment of rights and obligations are necessary to ensure fair rental transactions that comply with both Islamic legal principles and consumer protection regulations.]]>
