The practice of waqf is usually focused on a building or piece of land. Many donors end up not being able to afford the assets to participate in the Waqf. Cash waqf allows people of all backgrounds to engage in long-term charitable work. This study aims to analyze the sentiment generated from the social media ‘Twitter’ application regarding cash waqf. The technique employed is sentiment analysis of secondary data consisting of 330 tweets. The results showed that positive sentiment was the highest result with a percentage of 53%, followed by neutral sentiment at 32.1%, and negative sentiment at 14.8%. The good (positive) sentiment is the opinion of Twitter users who tweet about cash waqf topics by being positive and tend to be optimistic in responding to the existence of cash waqf and supporting the development of cash waqf. While the negative sentiment is the opinion of Twitter users who tend to express criticism in reviewing developments related to cash waqf. According to the findings, the majority of individuals are more pleased about the existence of cash waqf. As a result, increasing the number of scientific literature publications in indexed journals of cash waqf is necessary to maintain this favorable view.
Over the past two years, the COVID-19 pandemic has affected the banking industry. In the current sustainable era, increasing efficiency is one of the goals that must be achieved by banks. This study aims to measure the efficiency of Islamic banking, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic from 14 Islamic banks in Indonesia within a period of 6 years, from 2015 to 2020. The non-parametric method, Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is used as a research method in measure efficiency. DEA results are also used to identify input and output variables that must be improved if a decision-making unit (DMU) needs to increase its efficiency in the form of potential improvement. The results of the study show that COVID-19 has an impact on decreasing the efficiency of Islamic banking in Indonesia. The Islamic banks with the highest efficiency scores are Bank Syariah Mandiri, BRI Syariah, and Maybank Syariah. Furthermore, based on the analysis of potential improvement, the most important variable to be improved by banks during the pandemic is the variable amount of financing. Islamic banking is also required to be able to adapt to digitalization in order to survive during the crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and remain able to compete with conventional banking or new startups in the banking sector.
