This study discusses about the Islamic economic law system in the practice of pohulo'o in Gorontalo society. This study is examined through normative and socio-cultural approaches. Data obtained from interviews, documentation and questionnaires with 150 respondents. The results of the study show that: First, the practice of pohulo'o has basically produced a lot of pawn (al-rahn) in the sharia economic legal system, both related to harmony and its requirements; Second, the relevance of pohulo'o between the concept of al-rahn in the Islamic economic law system is related to: (a) the existence of a contract from the terms and conditions which have similarities; (b) the practice of pohulo'o with conservation of pawnshops (upilohulo'o) which tends to be carried out by the pawn holder (popohulo'o), although it is a pawn (tampohulo'o) and may also use it. However, in this case it depends on the agreement or contract that has been made. Ulama differs their views on this matter.
