Islamic Microfinance institution (MFI) funded either by government or private financial institutions are playing an instrumental role in discharging business fund to the eligible micro entrepreneurs (ME). The potential of micro entrepreneurs to succeed in their business is always becoming a central issue, this is due to the ability to manage the business strategy in a sustainable manner. The fund transacted in micro financing industry is small in term of quantity, therefore it also generates small profit to both parties MFI and ME, it may not be profitable in the eye of financial institution such as bank or Microfinance institution such as Baitul Mal wa Tamwil, moreover the financing risk is always high because some of the financing given without proper risk mitigation could lead into financial failure. The above reasons have influenced most of the MFIs’s decision to abstain from providing equity-based financing, where the concept very much suitable and workable to bring out the groups of MEs from poverty list in comparison to debt-based financing. Equity-based financing require bigger commitment and intervention from MFI in business in term of coaching, training and managing cash flow of the business. Islamic equity-based financing is about profit and loss sharing (PLS) financing. Where both parties have to bear financial consequences in the event of business failure. The failure in business would cause non-performing financing (NPF) to the financial institution and could effect the financial position for that particular year of report. The continuous NPF to the MFI can risk the company future plan.

An important pillar in the development of Islamic microfinance institutions is Total Quality Management and Sharia Governance. This pillar is the main differentiator between conventional Islamic finance institutions. Institutional efforts to provide satisfaction to customers. The concept of quality (quality) for service and non-service basically includes various things that are focused on the customer. Shari'ah supervision is needed to ensure the implementation of Shari'ah principles in the financial institution, which is played by the Shari'ah Supervisory Board. Implicitly this shows that the practice of shari'ah microfinance institutions has not been concerned with shari'ah principles and the quality of good governance, one of the causes of reputation and public trust in Islamic microfinance institutions will also have an impact on community loyalty use the services of a Shari'ah microfinance institution.

Namun demikian nyatanya, tidak dipungkiri sebagian besar usaha yang dikelola oleh kaum perempuan, dimana mayoritas berskala mikro, masih menjadikan faktor finansial atau modal usaha menjadi kendala utama.

This chapter bridges the concepts of microfinance and Zakat, and proposes a conceptual framework as a potential strategy to solve poverty. This study employs qualitative approach. Specifically, it performs content analysis on related manuscripts, and conducts a structured interview with selected stakeholders of Zakat institutions. The study proposes that Zakat institution must have a clear definition about which Zakat fund portion should be used for the program. Authors propose the use of amil for the program and it must be given by amil voluntarily and there must be clear mechanism on which deserving categories (asnaf/mustahik) should be prioritised to be the part of the program. In practice, amil can be considered as investors (where Zakat institution distributes and becomes Islamic microfinance institution) or financial intermediary (where the amil distributes and becomes Islamic microfinance institution appointed by the authority).
