Abstract

Objective: This study examines the implementation of a profit-sharing wage system in informal barbershop businesses in Watampone City and analyzes its implications for income equity and labor relations from an Islamic economics perspective. Method: This research uses a qualitative case study approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis, then analyzed descriptively using the framework of Islamic economics and distributive justice. Result: The findings show that profit-sharing wages are considered relatively fair because income is distributed proportionally according to workers’ contributions and business performance. The system enhances work motivation and strengthens partnership-based labor relations. However, income instability and the absence of written contracts remain important challenges. Although the principles of tarāḍī (mutual consent) and transparency are generally upheld, the lack of formal akad documentation reduces contractual clarity. It increases the potential for gharar, indicating that Sharia compliance is not yet fully achieved in procedural terms.  Implication: This study suggests that profit-sharing wage systems can serve as an alternative mechanism to promote distributive justice, flexibility, and harmonious labor relations in the informal sector. It also highlights the importance of strengthening contractual documentation to improve Sharia compliance. Originality or Novelty: This study contributes to Islamic economics literature by providing empirical evidence from the informal personal service sector, particularly barbershop businesses, and by proposing a contextual model that integrates Sharia principles with practical wage arrangements.

Abstract

Objective: This study investigates the determinants of cash waqf decisions among Muslim donors (wakif) in Surabaya, Indonesia, by examining the roles of waqf literacy, income, institutional trust, and altruistic attitudes. Furthermore, it assesses whether religiosity strengthens the relationship between these factors and cash waqf decisions. Method: A quantitative research design was employed using a survey of 350 cash waqf donors in Surabaya. Data were analysed using Structural Equation Modelling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) to evaluate both direct and moderating effects among the proposed variables. Result: The findings reveal that waqf literacy and institutional trust have a positive and significant influence on cash waqf decisions. In contrast, income and altruistic attitudes do not significantly affect the decision to participate in cash waqf. The results also indicate that religiosity does not moderate the relationships between waqf literacy, income, institutional trust, altruistic attitudes, and cash waqf decisions. Implication: The study highlights the importance of strengthening waqf literacy programs and improving institutional professionalism, transparency, and accountability to enhance public participation in cash waqf. Waqf institutions should prioritise trust-building mechanisms rather than relying solely on religious appeals in fundraising strategies. Originality or Novelty: This study extends the application of the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) to Islamic social finance by examining actual cash waqf decisions rather than behavioural intentions. It also contributes to the literature by testing religiosity as a moderating variable and providing empirical evidence from Surabaya, a newly designated waqf city in Indonesia.

Abstract

Objective: This research aims to examine the integration of halal ecotourism and sustainable tourism practices, and to explore how ecotourism grounded in Islamic ethical values contributes to environmental, economic, and socio-cultural sustainability. Method: This research employs a qualitative case-based approach. Researchers have conducted observations in tourist destinations and interviewed 10 informants. Data were analysed by analysing community-managed nature-based tourism destinations across mountainous, riverine, and coastal areas in Pekalongan Regency, Central Java, Indonesia. Result: The findings show that local communities manage most tourism destinations and implicitly apply halal principles, including environmental stewardship, provision of halal facilities, social ethics, and active community participation, which collectively reflect the three pillars of sustainable tourism and align with the maqasid al-shariah framework. Implication: This suggests that combining planning, implementation, and evaluation in a community-based halal eco-tourism framework can strengthen sustainable tourism development by integrating ecological conservation, local economic empowerment, and socio-cultural well-being. Originality or Novelty: This study offers a novel integrative model of halal eco-tourism as a value-driven approach to sustainable tourism, positioning it beyond a niche religious market and contributing to an alternative paradigm for future tourism development.
