Abstract

This study examines energy waqf as an innovative Islamic philanthropic approach to addressing the growing environmental crisis. Using a literature review methodology, the research explores how religious beliefs, cultural values, and institutional trust influence community acceptance and participation in energy waqf initiatives. The findings reveal that strong religious commitment and cultural norms significantly motivate individuals to engage in such projects, which are widely perceived as acts of environmental stewardship and community service. Additional drivers of participation include emotional and psychological factors, awareness of waqf benefits, and confidence in the credibility of managing institutions. The study highlights the importance of public education and transparent governance in strengthening community involvement and ensuring the sustainability of energy waqf programs. These insights offer valuable guidance for policymakers, religious leaders, and development practitioners aiming to promote climate action through Islamic social finance. Energy waqf emerges not only as a philanthropic tool rooted in Islamic principles but also as a viable strategy for advancing renewable energy adoption and fostering environmentally conscious communities.

Abstract

Islamic banking is facing increasing pressure to adopt sustainable business practices while maintaining compliance with sharia principles. In this context, Financial Technology (Fintech), Knowledge Management, Green Banking, and Sharia Compliance have emerged as critical factors influencing sustainability. This research aims to examine sustainable business models in Islamic banking in Central Java by analyzing the interrelations among these factors. A quantitative approach using Structural Equation Modeling Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) was applied to data from 515 sharia bank employees. The findings indicate that Fintech significantly influences Green Banking, Knowledge Management, and business sustainability, but does not directly affect Sharia Compliance. Green Banking significantly impacts both Sharia Compliance and business sustainability, while Sharia Compliance mediates the relationship between Green Banking and sustainability. These results highlight the need for deeper integration between Fintech and Islamic principles. Islamic banks are encouraged to develop strategies that synergize technological innovation, environmental responsibility, and religious compliance to achieve long-term, sustainable growth.

Abstract

This research investigates the relationship between the Islamic Human Development Index (I-HDI), Unemployment, Population Growth, and their impact on Poverty in G20 countries from 2010 to 2021. A purposive sampling method was used to select eight countries: the United States, Indonesia, the United Kingdom, Italy, Germany, Canada, France, and Turkey. The I-HDI was calculated using five Maqasid Shariah indicators. Unemployment was measured by the national unemployment rate, and Population Growth was represented by the annual population growth rate. A total of 384 panel data points were analyzed using the Fixed Effect Model (FEM) regression technique. The findings reveal a robust negative relationship between I-HDI and the Poverty Rate, indicating that improvements in human development are key drivers in alleviating poverty. In contrast, Unemployment shows a significant positive association with the Poverty Rate, meaning that an increase in unemployment leads to a rise in poverty levels. However, Population Growth does not exhibit a significant effect on the Poverty Rate, suggesting that demographic changes alone are not adequate to explain fluctuations in poverty across the G20 countries. These results offer valuable insights for policymakers focused on enhancing human development and addressing unemployment to effectively combat poverty.

Abstract

This study investigates the implementation of Green Human Resource Management (GHRM) within Indonesia’s Islamic finance industry through a systematic literature review of 375 academic publications from 2015 to 2024. Existing research has largely centered on conventional financial institutions, offering limited insight into GHRM’s role in the Islamic finance context. The review reveals that GHRM practices—such as green recruitment, sustainability training, and eco-friendly incentives—not only improve operational efficiency but also align with Maqasid al-Shariah objectives. FinTech integration further enhances green initiatives by increasing transparency and access in Islamic financial services. Nonetheless, regulatory limitations and inconsistent institutional support hinder broader adoption. A key recommendation is the introduction of Green Employee Sukuk: Shariah-compliant instruments issued by financial institutions to fund employee-led sustainability programs. Returns are tied to the performance of green investments, incentivizing employee engagement while reinforcing organizational environmental commitments. Strengthening regulatory frameworks and leveraging FinTech innovations are crucial for optimizing GHRM’s impact on sustainability in Indonesia’s Islamic finance sector.

Abstract

This research explores the interactions among capital structure, profitability, and company value, with Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) acting as a moderating factor. This investigation involves Sharia-compliant companies listed on the Jakarta Islamic Index (JII) of the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) over the period from 2017 to 2022. Secondary data were collected from the annual reports of these companies. Employing a purposive sampling approach, the study analyzes a sample of 23 companies, yielding a total of 161 observations. To evaluate the data, moderated regression analysis was conducted using WarpPLS. The findings reveal that both capital structure and profitability exert a significant positive effect on company value, whereas CSR demonstrates an insignificant positive effect on company value. Moreover, CSR does not moderate the relationship between profitability and company value; however, CSR significantly moderates the relationship between capital structure and company value. These results highlight the critical role of capital structure and profitability in enhancing company value, particularly in the context of Sharia-compliant businesses, and contribute to both the growing body of literature and valuable insight for the supported stakeholders to optimize company performance.

Abstract

The substantial Muslim population in East Java generates significant demand for halal meat products. Manufacturers and Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) play a pivotal role in shaping the region’s total halal meat production. This study investigates the influence of the number of workers, manufacturing operating income, and seasonal income of halal meat MSMEs on halal meat consumption in East Java province, Indonesia. Secondary data were collected from seven cities across the province over the period 2003–2022, using a purposive sampling technique. The data were analyzed using a static panel regression model via EViews version 12. The findings reveal that only the variable representing total manufacturing income in the halal meat sector has a statistically significant partial effect on overall halal meat consumption in the selected cities. This suggests that manufacturing enterprises possess distinct advantages over MSMEs in contributing to consumption levels. Conversely, the number of workers in the halal meat sector does not exhibit a significant influence on total meat consumption.

Abstract

Amid Indonesia’s fast-growing Sharia-compliant finance sector and heightened global volatility, a clear assessment of how systemic shocks affect bank performance is increasingly urgent. This research analyzes economic vulnerability and its implications for the efficiency of Islamic banking in Indonesia. Using monthly time-series data from 2007 to 2024, it employs a Vector Error Correction Model (VECM). The findings reveal that both disbursed financing (FIN) and non-performing financing (NPF) significantly influence operational efficiency—measured by the BOPO ratio—in both the short and long run. Specifically, higher levels of FIN and NPF diminish efficiency by raising operational costs or reducing income. By contrast, the crisis indicator (CRS) gains significance only in the long run, implying that Islamic banks require time to adjust to macroeconomic shocks. Impulse-Response Function analysis shows mixed efficiency reactions to macroeconomic shocks, while Forecast Error Variance Decomposition highlights BOPO’s own shocks as the largest source of its variance and underscores NPF as the most powerful exogenous driver. These insights equip Islamic-bank managers and policymakers to craft strategies that mitigate economic vulnerability and enhance operational performance.

Abstract

This study explores Kota Langsa, Aceh Province, Indonesia's potential as a halal industry hub-city, addressing gaps in Shariah-compliant urban models. Novelty lies in integrating halal principles with the hub-city concept, grounded in Islamic values of justice, fairness, and sustainability, offering a fresh theoretical framework for Islamic urban economics. Adopting a phenomenological design, in-depth interviews, focus groups, and document analysis were conducted to collect data from the stakeholders. As a result, in the purpose of ensuring halal authenticity, there were significant challenges of inadequate infrastructure, lack of skilled workers, and weak regulations. Responding to the challenges, a five-pillar strategy is proposed: Halal Industry Cluster Development, Infrastructure Enhancement, Human Capital Building, Regulatory Strengthening, and Public-Private Partnerships. This model contributes to Islamic economic theory by showing how to embed ethical practices and social responsibility into urban development. It provides actionable recommendations for policymakers, urban planners, and Islamic finance experts, helping Kota Langsa to drive regional growth by bridging urban development with halal ecosystems.

Abstract

The practice of waqf accountability in general often places excessive emphasis on technical and financial measurements, thereby neglecting the humanitarian mission that constitutes the very essence of waqf institutions. This paper seeks to address that limitation by proposing the idea of a “humanization of waqf accountability”, an integrated framework grounded in the prophetic social thought of Kuntowijoyo. The framework rests upon three main pillars. First, active community participation, which positions beneficiaries not as passive recipients but as empowered subjects. Second, social justice, which redefines waqf as an instrument for inclusive and sustainable development rather than merely a charitable activity. Third, community well-being, regarded as the ultimate goal, is measured through holistic indicators of human dignity. By integrating these pillars, this comprehensive paradigm not only aligns waqf governance with its ethical foundations but also responds to contemporary challenges, such as the need for beneficiary-centered management and transparent reporting. In essence, this human-oriented approach provides a pathway for waqf institutions to enhance their social impact, build trust among stakeholders, and fulfill their mandate in realizing sustainable community development more effectively.

Abstract

This study delves into the impact of funding liquidity risk (FLR) counting, including several bank-specific variables and the Coronavirus outbreak, on the balance of Islamic rural banks (IRBs) in Indonesia. Utilizing unbalanced quarterly panel data from 97 IRBs in Java from 2015 (Q1) to 2023 (Q4), the analysis is conducted using panel data regression. The results confirm that FLR significantly decreases bank stability. However, this negative influence was notably weakened during the COVID-19 Crisis. The analysis further reveals that the negative outcome of FLR on stability is more pronounced in smaller IRBs compared to their larger counterparts. Additionally, the findings show that while bank capital and operational efficiency enhance balance, factors such as larger bank size, high financing levels, and the pandemic period itself tend to reduce it. This research offers two key implications. Theoretically, it highlights how FLR can erode stability, a risk amplified when banks undertake high-risk investments. Practically, it underscores the critical need for especially the smaller IRBs to proactively manage asset-liability maturity mismatches to ensure financial stability.
