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 growing role of Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) in community-based economic development highlights the need for models that integrate entrepreneurship with spiritual values. This study aims to develop a santripreneur model at Sunan Drajat Islamic Boarding School (Pesantren), Lamongan. Using a qualitative case study design, data were collected through in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, direct observation, and document analysis across the pesantren’s business units. The findings identify a structured four-stage trajectory—startup, stabilization, growth and development, and real business synergy—that reflects the transformation of santri into Islamic entrepreneurs. This model integrates Islamic spiritual values with modern business practices, emphasizing tawḥīd, ethical conduct, performance discipline, and stakeholder collaboration. It not only cultivates an entrepreneurial mindset rooted in Shariah principles but also promotes institutional sustainability through structured training and alumni engagement. Conceptually, the model addresses a gap in the Islamic entrepreneurship literature. Practically, it offers a replicable framework for other pesantren seeking a sustainable, Shariah-compliant economic ecosystem.

Abstract

Islamic banking emerged as a response to the limitations of interest-based financial systems, offering alternative models rooted in Shariah principles—chief among them the profit-and-loss sharing (PLS) mechanism. This study re-examines the implementation of PLS in Islamic banks, identifying key challenges and outlining directions for future research within the framework of Shariah-compliant financial practices. Employing a systematic literature review of Scopus-indexed journal articles, the study compares theoretical foundations and empirical evidence surrounding PLS applications in contemporary Islamic banking. Findings indicate that PLS practices remain only partially aligned with Shariah principles, constrained by insufficient regulatory oversight, heightened credit risk, and moral hazard concerns. The study also identifies critical gaps in community awareness and operational management, underscoring the need for product innovation, stronger governance structures, and targeted educational initiatives. These insights point to three strategic priorities for stakeholders: enhancing governance to mitigate moral hazards, integrating macroeconomic policy support to improve PLS scalability, and expanding public education to close knowledge gaps. Together, these measures can support a more sustainable, equitable, and competitive Islamic banking sector.

Abstract

The domestic cosmetic industry in Indonesia continues to experience steady growth, driven by increasing market demand and evolving beauty trends. This demand is fueled by consumer interest in multifunctional cosmetic products. This study examines the influence of product attributes, halal labels, religiosity, and word of mouth (WOM) on purchasing decisions for Wardah cosmetics among female students at an Islamic boarding school in Kalibeber, Mojotengah, Wonosobo. Using a quantitative approach and linear regression analysis, data were collected from 100 respondents selected through random sampling. The results indicate that all four factors significantly impact purchasing decisions. Product attributes positively affect consumer choices, highlighting the importance of quality, design, and features. Halal labels play a crucial role in building trust and ensuring compliance with Islamic principles. Religiosity strongly influences decision-making, as students prioritize products aligned with their faith. WOM also significantly impacts purchasing behavior, especially within close-knit communities. Collectively, these variables explain 50% of the variance in purchasing decisions. The findings emphasize the need for manufacturers to focus on product development, clear halal certification, and strategies that encourage positive WOM to enhance consumer trust and brand loyalty in religiously conscious markets.

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

Profitability is a key indicator of corporate performance and sustainability, especially for firms operating under Islamic principles that must balance financial goals with religious, social, and environmental responsibilities. Green accounting and corporate social responsibility disclosure (CSRD) have emerged as mechanisms to strengthen reputation, stakeholder trust, and compliance. However, most prior studies examined these variables separately with inconsistent results, leaving a gap in understanding their combined effect on profitability in sharia-compliant sectors. This study addresses that gap by analysing the influence of green accounting and CSRD on mining companies listed in the Jakarta Islamic Index (JII) during 2016–2021. Using secondary data from financial statements and sustainability reports of six firms, profitability was measured through Return on Assets (ROA), Return on Equity (ROE), and Net Profit Margin (NPM). Regression results show green accounting significantly improves all profitability indicators, while CSRD positively affects ROA and ROE but not NPM. The novelty lies in integrating both variables in an Islamic mining context over six years, offering new evidence that sustainability practices enhance profitability while reinforcing sharia compliance.

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.
