Pandangan dunia atau pandangan hidup (worldview) berperan sangat penting dalam sistem masyarakat tertentu. Worldview berfungsi sebagai dasar bagi keseluruhan bangunan pengetahuan.1 Di bidang ilmu pengetahuan, worldview berfungsi sebagai media kognitif yang menjelaskan posisi ontologis, aturan metodologis, kerangka nilai, dan sebagainya.2 Oleh karena itu, bangunan ilmu pengetahuan sangat bergantung pada setiap worldview yang dimiliki masyarakat tertentu dan di atas worldview tadi dibangunlah ilmu pengetahuan yang khas3 serta peradaban yang berbeda dari fondasi peradaban lain.

Islamic wealth management is one of the new emerging financial service industries that attract many wealthy people to trust their assets managed in accordance with Islamic values and principles. Islamic wealth management is distinct from the conventional conception of wealth management from the philosophical foundation. Therefore, Islamic wealth management’s philosophical foundation is fundamental to understanding wealth management from the Islamic perspective. The paper aims to redefine the contemporary concept of wealth management from an Islamic perspective derived from the Qur’anic perspective. The finding shows that Islamic conception of wealth management from Qur’anic framework is very comprehensive that cover all philosophical foundation; ontology, epistemology, and axiology. The Islamic wealth management process contends three aspects: (1) wealth creation, (2) spending

The purpose of this study was to analyze the efficiency of local government expenditure based on Islamic Human Development Index (I-HDI) in Local Government at the Indonesian’s Province using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). DEA is a non parametic method that was developed to measure the level of efficiency compared to the Decision Making Unit (DMU). This method can measure the efficiency of a government entity by using multi-input and multi-output. DEA result also can be used to identify wich input or output must be increased by Decision Making Unit (DMU) to reach optimum efficiency. The result from this study showed that the average of efficiency score in local government at Indonesian’s Province is increasing from 2015 until 2018. This study also indicates that North Sumatera, East Java, and Yogyakarta’s government spending were efficient in 4 years. While Bangka Belitung and West Papua achieve the lowest efficiency score, and should optimize input and increase the number of output to improve the efficiency. Morever, the main source of inefficiency is in Life birth rate indicators.

It can be easily seen from the different reports of the International organizations like IMF and World Bank that most of the Muslim countries are under developed and have a very low per capita income except the producer of natural resources. Majority of them are facing social and economic problems, low literacy rate with highly unskilled labor force. Most of the Muslim population in these countries are living under poverty, unemployment rate is very high, and health condition is very poor. Except few, most of them are dependent on their deprived agricultural sector. Their social and economic problems are a major constraint in the development of their economies. Academicians and experts are in view that policies which are implemented in these countries are not well suited to these economies. Especially they blame to the monetary policy which is generally implemented through the channel of interest rate. In their view, interest is not allowed and it is clearly mentioned in their holy book, Al‐Qur’an. Before going to deep in this area, it is better for us to discuss the objective of the monetary policy in conventional as well as in an Islamic economy.

This chapter aims to identify factors that may influence the interest of Indonesian Muslim millennials in performing waqf. Five variables, namely waqf literacy, religiosity, trust in waqf institutions, religiosity, income, and social influence, were tested using SEM-PLS method. Data are obtained through online questionnaires with the number of sample is 321 Muslim millennials from the five major islands in Indonesia. The finding shows that four variables, literacy, religiosity, trust in waqf institutions, and social influence, have a significant impact on their interest in waqf donation. As a result, waqf institutions must nurture trust of prospective waqf through massive socialization such as social media which is widely accessed by millennials. This may attract their attention, leave a good impression, and create a supporting environment. In addition, waqf institutions need to instill trust by being more open, honest, and transparent about the programs they created through campaigns by bringing social and religious issues packed with excellent and exciting delivery that can help increase the interest of Muslim millennials in performing waqf. Furthermore, quality of nazhir should be improved, collaboration should be promoted, and the utilization of digital technology are highly recommended

Microfinance as an effective tool provides financial service for those who do not have the access or could not be accessed by a commercial bank or other financial institution. The Growth of Baitul Maal wa tamwil (BMT) as one of the Islamic financial institution is very fast and massive. There are many challenges and obstacles that inhibit the growth of it, either from internal or external of BMT. The purpose of this study is to identify the issues faced by the urban of BMT (Bogor City), used Analytic Network Process (ANP). The study also attempt to provide solution of the BMT problem faced. The result of this study showed that the problem of internal Issues was more dominant than External Issues, with the priority level of 54%. Based on the Internal Problems aspect, the dominant issue was the problem of “Low Quality and understanding of Human Resource”. Meanwhile an aspect of the external problem is “the strictness of Business Competition”. Furthermore, the solution could be implemented are 1) Training for Human Recourse 2) BMT Mentoring by the relevant government.

Waqf plays an important role in the economic development of the umma. it may help the burden of statet expenditure and also eliminate riba(cizakca, 1998) , its proven in the time of the Ottona whereby the waqf systemalong with the imaret system and other religious Institutions contributed to the  socio-economics 

arisen in Muslim countries including Indonesia. It is argued that zakat, in history, has played a significant role to create welfare among societies. It is proven at the time of Caliph 'Umar ibn 'Abdul 'Aziz that zakat has alleviated poverty at that time alongside tax. Having considered such achievement, some scholars argued that zakat should be reintegrated into current fiscal system. This paper, therefore, attempts to study the feasibility of integrating zakat into Indonesian fiscal system. Employing descriptive analysis based on Siyasah Shariyyah (high objectives of the Shariah). Therefore, the objectives of the study are set with these following points: 1) to address the strength and the weakness of the implementation of this idea, 2) to assess its opportunity as well as its threat, 3) to examine whether the integration of zakat will secure maslahah (benefit) or create mafsadah (harm). The result shows that the integration of zakat into current fiscal system is in line with the Siyasah Shariyyah. Hence, the strong willingness and commitment of government is strongly required to applicate it. The proper model of integration should also be planned well. Moreover, nurturing the understanding to all parties, especially to the nonMuslims and secularists, that this idea is really beneficial and not discriminatory should be promoted.

This research aims at investigating the potential of Bait al-Māl wa Tamwil (BMT) in the development of border areas of Indonesia-Malaysia by prioritizing the welfare approach. Primary data was obtained through in-depth interviews with respondents from academics, practitioners, and regulators. The Analytic Network Process (ANP) method and Benefit Opportunity Cost Risk (BOCR) network are used to review the interview results. The results reveal that BMT is able to help the development of the border areas. Moreover, the aspects of benefit and opportunity in exploiting BMT is more significant than the cost and risk aspects. There are three alternative strategies to be implemented in order to maximize the benefits and opportunities and also minimize the costs and risks, namely the capital of third parties, linkage programs, and special regulations

Nowadays, the idea of integrating zakat into fiscal system has arisen in Muslim countries including Indonesia. It is argued that zakat, in history, has played a significant role to create welfare among societies. It is proven at the time of Caliph ‘Umar ibn ‘Abdul ‘Aziz that zakat has alleviated poverty at that time alongside tax. Having considered such achievement, some scholars argued that zakat should be reintegrated into current fiscal system. This paper, therefore, attempts to study the feasibility of integrating zakat into Indonesian fiscal system. Employing descriptive analysis based on SiyasahShar‘iyyah (high objectives of the Shari‘ah). Therefore, the objectives of the study are set with these following points: 1) to address the strength and the weakness of the implementation of this idea, 2) to assess its opportunity as well as its threat, 3) to examine whether the integration of zakat will secure maslahah (benefit) or create mafsadah (harm). The result shows that the integration of zakat into current fiscal system is in line with the SiyasahShar‘iyyah. Hence, the strong willingness and commitment of government is strongly required to apply it. The proper model of integration also should be planned well. Moreover, nurturing the understanding to all parties especially to the non-Muslims and secularists that this idea is really beneficial and not discriminatory should be promoted.

This study investigated feeding management of yellowfin seabream, Acanthopagrus arabicas, juveniles under different feeding rates and its relationship to growth performance, survival, cannibalism and body composition. Thirty healthy fish (21.87±0.22g initial weight) were stocked in 12 separate net cages 3.4m³ assigned to four groups: F1, F2, F3, and F4 to receive feed at 3%, 5%, 7% and 9% body weight per day (bw/d). The juveniles were fed twice daily with a diet containing 42% protein for seven weeks. At the end of the feeding trial, group F3, fed at 7% bw/d, had significantly (P<0.05) higher percent weight gain, average daily weight gain and specific growth rate, followed by groups F2 (5% bw/d) and F4 (9% bw/d). The poorest growth performance was recorded in F1 (3% bw/d). Cannibalism was not seen in any treatment group, and survival was recorded 100%. In the whole fish body proximate composition, protein, ash and moisture showed no change while lipid levels in the fish bodies increased with increasing feeding ratio. Based on the results, 7% bw/d was the optimum feeding rate for J. arabicas under given experimental conditions.

he experimental trial was conducted in saline water to determine the replacement level of fish meal with locally available plant protein source, the soybean meal on growth performance, survival and body composition of Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) juveniles reared in floating net cages. Four types of diet (35% crude protein) were formulated where fishmeal was replaced by soybean meal, partially up to 0%, 25%, 50% and 75% designated as treatment T1, T2, T3 and T4 respectively. The diet T1 was the control diet where a fish meal was the main ingredient and sole source of protein. A triplicate group of thirty healthy fish, juveniles (15.58g average initial weight) were stocked in each floating net cage (1.2 x 1.2 x 1.2m). Feeding was done at the rate of apparent visual satiation twice daily for a period of six weeks. At the end of the trial results indicates that there were no significant differences (P>0.05) in percent weight gain (%), specific growth rate (SGR %), average daily weight gain (g/ind/day), and feed conversion ratio (FCR) up to 50%fishmeal replacement by comparing with the control diet without soybean meal. However, deterioration in growth performance was noted in fish receiving more than 50% dietary soybean meal. Feed conversion ratio was poorer by increasing the soybean meal over 50%, T4 (2.81±0.74) and T3, (2.55±0.36), which is significantly different from T1 (2.21±0.12) and T2 (2.34±0.34). Survival was 94.99% in all the treatment groups. No significant differences (P>0.05) were found in fish final body carcass composition of protein, ash and moisture contents, but, the lipid level of the fish's body increased (P<0.05) significantly with an increasing fish oil and soybean meal in the diets. As a result, 50% soybean meal in the diet can substitute fishmeal without jeopardizing the growth and health condition of Nile tilapia.

Buku ini berusaha menggali beberapa teori ekonomi yang terkandung di dalam ayat-ayat Al-Qur'an dengan menggunakan metode dengan pendekatan yang jarang dilakukan oleh penulis lain-nya yaitu pendekatan “tafsir ekonomi”. Di mana pendekatan “tafsir” merupakan
pendekatan original yang selama ini digunakan oleh para ulama dalam menggali hukum, hikmah, dan ilmu yang terkandung dalam Al-Qur'an. 

Potensi Zakat, Infaq dan Shadaqah (ZIS) di Indonesia sangat besar dan diyakini dapat menciptakan keadilan distribusi kekayaan masyarakat. Sayangnya, dana ZIS yang berhasil dikumpulkan masih jauh dari potensi yang ada. Oleh karenanya dibutuhkan optimalisasi potensi zakat, salah satunya dengan efisiensi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui tingkat efisiensi Organisasi Pengelola Zakat (OPZ) secara relatif menggunakan Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) dengan pendekatan produksi. DEA merupakan metode nonparametrik yang digunakan untuk mengukur tingkat efisiensi unit pengambil keputusan secara relatif. Metode ini mengukur rasio antara output dan input yang diperbandingkan antar OPZ yang diteliti. Variabel output yang digunakan meliputi dana terhimpun dan dana tersalurkan, sedangkan input-nya adalah biaya personalia, biaya sosialisasi dan biaya operasional lainnya. Hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa efisiensi OPZ pada tahun 2005 masih lebih baik dari tahun 2006 dan 2007 baik secara teknis (94,52%), skala (75%), dan overall (71,27%). Perhitungan terhadap 9 OPZ tahun 2007 dengan asumsi CRS, menunjukkan hanya 2 OPZ yang efisien, yakni BMM dan Bamuis BNI.Penyebab utama inefisiensi adalah dana tersalurkan dan dana terhimpun, yakni menyumbang 43,1% dan 36%. Sedangkan pengukuran dengan orientasi input menyatakan bahwa sumber inefisiensi adalah biaya operasional lain sebesar 34,9% dan biaya sosialisasi sebesar 31,1%.

Cash Waqf funds has an important role to empower the economy of Ummah. Unfortunately, the collected cash waqf fund is still very small compared to its potential number. Against this background, this research aims to design systems that may enchance the role of Islamic banks in cash waqf fund raising. This paper employed Interpretative Structural Modeling (ISM) by conducting literature studies and In-depth interviews with some regulators, practitioners and academicians. The result shows that experts and practitioners agreed that the strong legal support on cash waqf is necessary to enhance the role of Islamic Banks to raise cash waqf funds. It creates a sense of secure to the stakeholders. Furthermore, it requires a strong coordination between Indonesian Waqf Board (BWI), Ministry of Religious Affairs, Bank Indonesia (BI), Financial Services Authority (OJK), Nazhir and Islamic Financial Institutions that may receive cash waqf (LKS-PWU) in order to boost the role of Islamic Banks. The main obstacle that must be tacled soon is the lack of education about cash waqf.
