A pesantren (Islamic boarding school) as an Islamic educational institution basedon self-financing system has implemented waqf as a pillar of its development andbecome a potential waqf asset development. The productive waqf is considered asa key instrument for providing funds to actualizing its educational program. Sinceboth productive waqf and pesantren emphasize sustainability, and since productivewaqf can assist to support the process of education in pesantren, the study aims toinvestigate an integrated Islamic social and commercial economy model applicable inpesantren. This will ensure utilization of the combined resources of productive waqfand pesantren in promoting pesantren welfare. The study focuses on 263 operationalchief, assatidz or teacher, musyrif, musyrifah or santri companion and santri or studentsin Pesantren in Java and Sumatra using. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) adoptedto examine the relationship among the five constructs i.e., productive waqf, businessunit, project financing, human resource and pesantren welfare. While the reliabilityand validity are established, the structural relationship between the constructs revealsthat the integrated model has a strong relationship with the pesantren welfare inmany ways. In relation with business unit and profitable commercial activities, humanresources have its significant role to assist pesantren tries its level best to realizedeveloped productive waqf. Specifically, the result shows all five constructs havesignificant impact in promoting pesantren welfare, which suggests that the model aswell as the instrument should be further implemented in pesantren.

ABSTRAKMenurut catatan Kementrian Agama tahun 2016, luas tanah wakaf di Indonesia mencapai 49.444,01 ha . Dari sekian banyak aset wakaf yang ada, hanya sebagian saja yang diolah secara produktif. Kekurangan dana merupakan penyebab yang paling umum ditemui, oleh karena itu dibutuhkan sebuah instrumen untuk pengumpulan dana guna mengembangkan asset wakaf. Sukuk merupakan sebuah instrumen ekonomi yang berdasarkan pada pengumpulan dana dari investor. Untuk itu integrasi sukuk dan wakaf akan menjadi instrument pembiayaan yang efektif. Pesantren sebagai salah satu pioneer pendidikan Islam di Indonesia telah lama menggunakan wakaf sebagai salah satu dasar pembangunannya dan juga tonggak ekonominya, sayangnya banyak dari asset wakaf yang dimiliki pesantren belum dimanfaatkan secara produktif dikarenakan kekurangan dana pengembangan. Di Indonesia, sukuk wakaf masih sangat riskan diaplikasikan. Untuk itu penulis ingin menyusun model sukuk wakaf yang mungkin diaplikasikan di pesantren dengan tidak mengabaikan prinsip-prinsip ekonomi pesantren dan tidak melanggar regulasi yang ada. Penelitian dan penyusunan model ini akan menggunakan metode Analytic Network Process (ANP). Metode ini ditujukan untuk membentuk suatu model sekaligus memutuskan model mana yang mungkin dapat diterapkan dalam pembangunan ekonomi pesantren. Selain itu, penulis juga akan melakukan penelitian secara literature untuk membangun suatu teori yang kuat dalam pembangunan dan pencarian masalah model-model sukuk wakaf. Dari penelitian ini ditemukan kesepakatan dari para responden ada pada taraf yang rendah dalam pemilihan model. Namun begitu, tetap terdapat salah satu model yang unggul dibanding dengan model lainnya meskipun berbeda tipis. Menurut responden, sukuk wakaf yang paling mungkin diaplikasikan adalah sukuk wakaf melalui pemerintah.
COVID-19 pandemic has created a new economic crisis worldwide. Islamic Bank which was reportedly resilient against the financial crisis is expected to be stable in this period. Apart from that, Islamic Bank has channeled financing fund to various business sectors with different portions leading to a question whether they have different impact on Bank. This paper aims to discover the impact of COVID-19 pandemic and financing to business sectors on Islamic Bank profitability. An ARDL approach is employed for analysis. The result of the study shows that COVID-19 pandemic has a negative relationship with Islamic Bank profitability in the long-run. Furthermore, financing to transportation, warehousing and communication sectors is associated with higher profitability in the short-run. On the other hand, financing to wholesale and retail trade sectors hurt Islamic Bank profitability. Based on this result, it is suggested that Government impose some measures in stabilizing Islamic Bank’s performance during COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, Islamic Banks are expected to make adjustment on financing to business sectors ratio accordingly in order to maintain the profitability of Islamic Bank.
Recent monetary crises have brought back the interest of scholars especiallyMuslim scholars to re-evaluate the current fiat monetary system. A group of Muslim economists believe that the source of problems is a form of fiat money. However, a larger group of Muslim economists prefer to set fiat money according to the rules of Sharia. This paper attempts to discuss the opinion of these two groups, so then offers the concept of money in Islam. The first group argue that the fiat money creates a seigniorage which is the cause of inflation, inequity of wealth distribution and monetary and financial crisis. Fiat money is also the soul of banking fractional reserve system which leads to the problem of inflation, business cycles and injustice distribution of wealth. Lastly, fiat money sytem with interest result in an inflationary economy. Besides these three, there is a belief that the money according to Islam must be commodity money. The second group counter that the strict rules for monetary management is proved to minimize the use of seigniorage so that inflation can be controlled. In fact, the fiat money and fractional reserve system support economic expansion so that the community can enjoy the economic growth. Furthermore, the business cycle is not just happening on a fiat money system but also a part of the commodity money system. Indeed, money in Islam must be a commodity is not agreed by the majority of fiqh scholars. However, in the context of international currency, the issue of injustice and the causes of the crisis becomes challenging issue. The first group propose to change international currency to commodity money, while the second group offers a monetary union as in the case of Europe. Finally, the concept of money is not about the form of money, but rather whether the money can be a just medium of exchange and measure of value for the goods and services.
