Abstract

In Indonesia, the number of Shari’ah Compliant Companies (ShCCs) has risen since the release of a fatwa that encourages the growth of the Islamic Capital Market (ICM) in the country. ShCCs are expected to be transparent in disclosing information in their annual reports. Besides non-financial information, the ShCCs also need to provide more information on compliance with Islamic teaching in their reports. This action is to fulfill their responsibility and accountability to society. This study aims to assess the extent and the quality of the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) disclosure in the annual reports of ShCCs of Indonesia. The data were collected from the 2014 annual report of 100 ShCCs in Indonesia. To measure the extent and quality of CSR disclosure, a checklist comprising 33 items was constructed. This study used descriptive statistics and reliability tests as the primary statistical tests. The results showed that the extent and quality of CSR disclosure among ShCCs in Indonesia are low. It suggests that ShCCs maintain the narrative disclosure stage rather than promote verifiable CSR information. Hence, companies must intensify the quality of CSR disclosure by providing CSR information in both quantitative and qualitative forms.

Abstract

As the most prominent Muslim majority country globally, Ramadan is a viral religious celebration in Indonesia. This study aims to determine the effect of the month of Ramadan on the performance of Islamic stocks in food and beverage companies. This study uses the event study method with a paired sample t-test as a test instrument. Sharia stock performance uses variable returns, abnormal returns, trading volume activity, and variability of securities returns from 2013-2020 during Shaban, Ramadan, and Syawal. This study indicates that the return variable and trading volume activity have a significant difference at the moment and after the month of Ramadan. In contrast, the other tests have no difference.

Indirectly, the traditions of the month of Ramadan also affect performance in the capital market.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of attitudes, subjective norms, zakat institution system and government support in influencing the interest of the government and private officers to pay zakat. This study also aims to determine the extent of muzakki’s knowledge of zakat in improving attitudes, subjective norms, zakat institutional systems and government support in the interest of the government and private officers to pay zakat. Respondents in this study are 402 respondents consisting of 154 government officers and 248 private officers who live in 6 big cities in Java, such as Jakarta, Serang, Bandung, Semarang, Yogyakarta and Surabaya. This research uses the Partial-Least-Square Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) analysis technique with the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) model. The finding reveals that attitudes, subjective norms, zakat institutional system, and government support affect the government and private officers' interest in paying zakat. Meanwhile, knowledge as a moderating variable does not strengthen the influence of attitudes, zakat institutional systems and government support. Still, it reinforces the subjective norms of government and private officers in influencing intention to pay zakat. BAZNAS can collaborate with educational institutions, professional institutions, community institutions and utilize social networks to increase public knowledge about zakat. Hence, knowledge about zakat supports subjective norms and attitudes, zakat institutional system, and government support.

Abstract

The Practice of Musharaka in Islamic banking are difference from Musharaka in jurisprudence perspective. This can be seen from the elements of capital, management, duration of the contract, warranty, and profit sharing. This study aims to determine the theoretical foundations associated Musharaka in jurisprudence and Islamic banking. The results showed that the Musharaka in Islamic banking has not been implemented in accordance with the Islamic jurisprudence, where there are elements of usury, namely the determination of the nominal money to be deposited is determined at the beginning even though not yet know whether the work done customer experience gains or losses, as well as the persistence of guarantees in musharaka contract, other than that if the work done there is a loss of customers, the loss is only borne by the customer only.Praktik musyarakah di perbankan syariah berbeda dengan musyarakah perspektif fiqih. Hal tersebut dapat dilihat dari unsur modal, manajemen, masa berlakunya kontrak, jaminan, dan bagi hasil. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui dasar-dasar teori yang terkait musyarakah dalam fiqih dan perbankan syariah. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa musyarakah yang dilaksanakan di perbankan syariah belum sesuai dengan kosep fiqih, di mana masih ada unsur riba, yaitu dalam penetapan nominal uang yang harus disetorkan ditentukan di awal padahal belum mengetahui apakah usaha yang dilakukan nasabah mengalami keuntungan atau kerugian, serta masih adanya jaminan dalam akad musyarakah, selain itu apabila usaha yang dilakukan nasabah terjadi kerugian maka kerugian hanya ditanggung oleh nasabah saja.Kata Kunci: Musyarakah, Fiqh  dan Perbankan Syariah

Abstract

Ethical investing in various countries is increasingly popular following the number of ethical investors. However, the performance of ethical investments in many developed countries is lower than the performance of the opposite category, unethical stock, or researchers called it as sin stock. This study examines whether the performance of sin stocks in Indonesia is as good as the performance of sin stocks in developed countries considering the very different cultures and religions. This study comprehensively measures the performance of all sin stocks and ethical stocks using the risk-adjusted return approach, the Sharpe and Treynor ratios. To sharpen the analysis, this study also measures the efficiency of all types of stocks using the data envelopment analysis method. The results show that the performance of the sin stock portfolio in Indonesia is different from the facts in developed countries. Sin stocks in Indonesia had the worst performance during 2013-2022 compared to ethical stocks. Furthermore, in terms of efficiency, the SRI-Kehati Index has the highest score compared to all indices. This research contributes to provide theoretical and practical insights about the comparison of the performance of sin stocks and their counterparts in Indonesia which is different from sin stocks in developed countries. The originality of the research includes the creation of a sin stock portfolio and the use of constraint stocks as a proxy for ethical stocks.
