This study aims to analyze the implementation of the principle of trust (amanah) in boarding house rental agreements around the State Islamic University (UIN) Sjech M. Djamil Djambek Bukittinggi based on Islamic Economic Law, focusing on how the principle is applied in practice and its conformity with sharia principles. This research uses an empirical legal method with a sociological juridical approach. Data were collected through interviews with boarding house owners and tenants, as well as documentation of existing rental agreements in the research area. The data were analyzed using qualitative descriptive analysis to examine the implementation of the principle of trust in rental practices. The findings show that most boarding house rental agreements are conducted orally without written contracts, and the principle of trust has not been fully implemented, particularly on the tenant side, where late payments and non-compliance with agreed terms are still common. This indicates a gap between actual practices and the principle of trust in Islamic economic law. In conclusion, the implementation of the principle of trust in boarding house rental agreements around UIN Bukittinggi is not yet optimal, and it is recommended that landlords establish clear written agreements based on Islamic principles while tenants improve their legal and moral responsibility in fulfilling contractual obligations.
