The objective of my research is to observe at the relationship between receivables, profit-sharing financing to total assets at BNI Syariah Bank from 2016-2020. Total assets in BNI Syariah frequently endure fluctuations in total assets each year, whether receivables and profit-sharing financing have a significant effect on variable Y (total assets). The method that researchers run is a quantitative method using the help of SPPS software, while the variables that influence are the dependent variable receivables and profit-sharing financing. The funding channelled by BNI Syariah is essentially the same as other Islamic banks in Indonesia. Because it still uses an agreement that has long practised in the Islamic banking system, such as the Murabaha contract for the provision of receivables, Mudharabah and Musyarakah contracts for profit sharing between customers and banks. The relationship between Receivables and Revenue Sharing Financing has a positive correlation between variables. This research can also provide some connection between Murabahah and Musharaka which are one of the main product sources of BNI Syariah bank. The originality of the research that the researcher makes is his own, it is not copied and that the researcher's research idea is new and can add new knowledge.

Islamic banking products (IBP) are offered not only to the Muslim community, but also to communities of other religions who are free to choose products depending on their convenience. According to a report, the percentage of non-Muslim communities choosing IBP in Malaysia has been steadily increasing and is expected to continue to increase in future. The Dual Banking System is one of the initiatives that has been created in conventional banks as an extra facility for the communities to engage with IBP easily without going to Islamic Banks. This paper aims to study the factors that drive non-Muslim customers to accept IBP. Specifically, this paper examines the relationship between four factors: knowledge, understanding, perception and the level of awareness among non-Muslim customers regarding their acceptance on IBP in the Dual Banking System. About 140 non-Muslim IBP customers of the Dual Banking System around Changlun, Jitra and Alor Setar were selected based on convenience and were randomly picked as respondents of this study. Some data were also collected through interviews with the bank personnel and the bank’s customers besides the self-administered questionnaire survey. Employing the SPSS approach, the hypotheses of the study were tested. The findings showed that there are significance relationships between customer’s knowledge, understanding, positive perception, and the level of awareness perceived among non-Muslim customers and their acceptance of IBP.   Keywords: Islamic banking products; non-Muslim customers; acceptance.

This study is essential because Islamic banks have a higher NPF level than conventional banks and examine whether macroeconomic indicators (macro-risk), internal factors of banking (GCG-earnings-capital) risk profile correlate term Indonesian Islamic banking. The method used is the correlation analysis involving four macro-risk variables (Forex; BI rate; Inflation and GDP), three GEC variables (GCG; ROA, and CAR), and two risk profiles (FDR and NPF). The number of samples is the ten largest Indonesia sharia commercial banks with the 2011-2018 periods. This research finds that macroeconomic indicators positively correlate to non-performing financing (NPF). The GEC positively correlates to NPF and FDR; GEC is negatively correlated to macro-risk indicators. However, some indicators are negatively correlated, such as GDP-corporate governance, Forex-profitability, GDP-efficiency, BI rate-capital, and profitability-NPF. The study proposed managerial implications to understand the relationship between macroeconomic, internal factors, and risk profile in Islamic bank lending.JEL: D02; G21, G32How to Cite:Santosa, P.

The profit-sharing system is the main characteristic of Islamic banking that distinguishes them from conventional (ribawi) banking. However, in reality, the profit-sharing contract is rarely implemented in Islamic banking. As a result, Islamic banking is still identified as ribawi banking. Many Islamic economists have examined the reasons behind fixed income contracts, especially murabahah contract that applied predominantly, structurally, systematically and massively compared to the profit-sharing contract. Therefore, with a critical analytical approach, this study aims to dismantle and look for solution towards exploitation of fixed income-based financing in Indonesian sharia banking. The results of this study are fixed income-based financing should be applied limited to covering the operational costs of Islamic banks but the remainder must be channelled based on profit-sharing systems. Meanwhile, funding for profit-sharing systems is intended to gain profits and cover the operational cost variables. Thus, predatory exploitation of Islamic banks in Indonesia can be minimized by maintaining the composition of the maximum financing about forty per cent which is a fixed-yield based and leave the rest to a profit-sharing system. Then, the more equitable Islamic bank system and Islamic economic goals will be created and offer benefits such as the achieving of the objectives of Islamic sharia (maqashid shariah) and minimizing the image of Islamic banks as ribawi bank.

This article is motivated by the rapid development of the Islamic banking world, especially in Indonesia where the majority of the population is Muslims. When other countries have given birth to Islamic-based banks, as well as Indonesia, in 1992 was the establishment of Bank Muamalat Indonesia. Islamic banks use applications that are different from conventional banks, where the term on conventional banks is interest, whereas in Islamic banks use the profit sharing application. One application of Islamic banks that is very helpful to customers is the Mudharabah and Ijarah Muntahiya Bittamlik (IMBT) application. Although these two applications exist in Islamic banks or Islamic-based banks, it is possible that the two applications are not in accordance with Islamic economic law. Therefore, this paper tries to analyze the mudharabah and IMBT applications in the perspective of sharia economic law.

Artikel ini membahas prinsip bagi hasil dalam skema mudharabah di perbankan syariah dan permasalahan yang terdapat di dalamnya dengan metode deskriptif-kualitatif melalui studi kepustakaan dan eksploratif literatur. Skema mudharabah biasanya diterapkan pada produk pembiayaan dan investas yang melibatkan dua pihak: shahib al-maal dan mudharib. Kedua belah pihak bekerjasama untuk mendapatkan keuntungan yang akan dibagikan sesuai dengan nisbah yang telah disepakati di awal akad. Apabila terjadi kerugian finansial, shahib al-maal akan menanggung semuanya, tetapi jika disebabkan oleh kelalaian pengelola modal maka kerugian tersebut harus ditanggung oleh mudharib. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dalam akad mudharabah mayoritas bank syariah menerapkan prinsip revenue-sharing yang secara tidak langsung direstui oleh Fatwa DSN 07/2000. Penerapan prinsip ini dapat memicu timbulnya rasa ketidakadilan karena bagi hasil dihitung berdasarkan laba kotor yang lebih menguntungkan pihak shahib al-maal dan kurang menguntungkan bagi mudharib. Kondisi ini membuat nasabah kurang termotivasi untuk memilih bank syariah ketimbang bank konvensional. Dilihat dari perspektif fiqh, bagi hasil dihitung berdasarkan keuntungan bersih sebagaimana diterapkan pada prinsip profit/loss-sharing, yang penerapannya juga direkomendasikan oleh OKI. Pada akhirnya, penyempurnaan pada Fatwa DSN 07/2000 perlu dilakukan untuk memberikan rasa keadilan bagi semua entitas mudharabah: shahib al-maal dan mudharib. [This article was created to discuss the principle of profit-sharing in the mudharabah scheme in Islamic banking and the problems contained therein using descriptive-qualitative methods through library study and literature exploratory. Mudharabah schemes are usually applied to financing and investment products that involve two parties: shahib al-maal and mudharib. Both parties collaborate to get profits which will be shared according to the nisbah agreed at the beginning of the contract. If there is a financial loss, shahib al-maal will bear everything, but if it is caused by the negligence of the capital-user then the loss must be borne by the mudharib. The results showed that in the mudharabah contract, the majority of Islamic banks apply the principle of revenue-sharing which is indirectly blessed by Fatwa DSN 07/2000. The implementation of this principle could trigger a sense of injustice because the profit-sharing is calculated based on gross profit which is more beneficial for the shahib al-maal and less profitable for the mudarib. This condition makes customers less motivated to choose Islamic banks rather than conventional banks. From the perspective of fiqh, profit-sharing is calculated based on net profit as it’s applied to the principle of profit/loss-sharing as well as recommended by the OIC. At the end, improvements to the Fatwa 07/2000, needs to be done to provide a sense of justice for all mudharabah entities: shahib al-maal and mudharib.]

Purpose This paper aims to examine the assumption used in previous studies that all Muslims adopt and believe the same law on the prohibition of bank interest and to investigate the indirect effect of religiosity on customers’ decision for using Islamic banking services. Design/methodology/approach This study uses an exploratory approach and the natural experimental design with seemingly causal models. A total of 363 questionnaires were distributed to three groups of bank customers, i.e. Islamic banks customers, conventional banks customers and customers of both banks (121 respondents in each group). Findings The results show that the role of religiosity in the customers’ decision for using the Islamic banking services depends on religious norms variable. Religiosity affects the decision of customers in the traditional group, but it does not have any effect for the contemporary group. Other findings suggest that religiosity indirectly affects the decision for using the Islamic banks through intervening variables of trust and information source. Originality/value This is the first paper to investigate the relationship between religiosity and customers’ decision for using the Islamic banking services by considering the religious norm variable. This paper also examines indirect affects of religiosity to the Islamic banks’ choice through intervening variables of trust and information source.

The banking system in Indonesia is conducted by the dual banking system where the system is divided into conventional and Islamic. Presence of Islamic banks has provided  investment alternatives without worrying about the risk the development of remuneration with an uncertain interest method. But on this implementation, Islamic banking requires special treatment  different from conventional banks, especially in terms of handling the risks and challenges faced by Islamic banks. The problem is how to implement the profit sharing of principal and risks and how the handling Non Performing Finance of the implementation the profit sharing. To answer the problems of research using qualitative methods by analyzing primary and secondary data so as to produce the results of interviews. The result of this study show that in musyarakah principle not much different from the mudharabah, that both a system of partnership between the two sides or more to administer a particular business with profit sharing corresponding portion (ratio) were agreed at the beginning of the agreement. On this Implementation Mudharabah and Musyarakah have a some differences. While the risk in financing the Musyarakah and mudharabah, especially on this the financing application, high relatively, among other side streaming, negligence and misconduct willful, concealment of profits by customers when customers are not honest. The amount of financing risk is shown in the ratio of non-performing finance (NPF). The high of NPF indicates the large number of borrowers who can’t repay their finance in accordance with the initial agreement that has been agreed between the bank and the customer, so financing becomes problematic. Funding problems can be caused by the bank itself, the customers or external parties. Bank Syariah Mandiri (BSM) Branch Office Manado has been anticipating the event of a dispute banking, especially in the provision of financing problems. On this theory of completion financing problems, be done with several measures including the rescue action by intensive bill, rescheduling, re-requirements and realignment. Rescue actions made by bank on this condition that the customer is still considered to have good faith to settle the payment. Keywords: Islamic Banking, Profit Sharing, Risk, and Financing Problems
