This chapter’s goal is to define the kind of seeds to be planted for moving forward in the safe and stable drive toward a leading central banking role directed at achieving a sustained Islamic banking and finance development within the global financial system. The system witnessed the input of Islamic banking with its fruitful contribution as a feasible banking structure in both implementing agreed reforms and shaping the next steps directed toward crisis prevention and crisis resolution.

The adopted approach is based upon scientific conceptual basis as well as the practical experience related to the central banking role and Islamic banking evolution. This chapter will define the strategic role of Central Banks and highlight the conceptual basis governing the leading role of central banks as well as the practical basis derived from our central banking and Islamic banking experience.

In light of the conceptual and practical basis for enabling an efficient and effective role of Central Banks as a regulatory body in shaping the future of the Islamic Financial System. Legal, institutional and managerial strategic determinants for this role have been defined.

The analytical work of this chapter crystallises in a pioneering initiative the main determining factors governing the role of central banks as the main regulatory body for Islamic banking, and how this role could be effective in affecting the future role to be played by the Islamic banks in the global financial system. Also, to this end, the integrated required role by central banks, public policies, multilateral institutions and Islamic banks are illustra

Energy and cooperative hard work and commitment from all players, including the regulators of Islamic banks supported by public policies, international and multilateral institutions and members of the Islamic banking family is thought to be the main determining factor for transforming the Islamic banking family into one that will make the Islamic people and all humanity – through the global financial system – live with more stability, welfare and happiness.

The Muslim population is expected to increase by 26% to 2030 to approximately 2.2 billion, and currently have a 7.7% share of global GDP which is expected to grow to 8.7% by end 2016. Therefore, the need of wealth management from Islamic way is growing rapidly. Hajj is one of Islamic pillars that Muslim people should concern on it. This hajj is performed depending on the ability of person in term of health and wealth. Moreover, the government plays a major role in management and service of hajj in many Muslim countries. The hajj fund can contribute significantly to economic development of the country. One of the possible mechanisms can be used for managing the hajj fund is by using wealth management as the instrument in managing the fund. Moreover, this study will employs qualitative research that refers to the meanings, concepts, definitions, characteristics, metaphors, symbols and descriptions of the matter understudy by using content and descriptive analysis to get finding of the study. The finding of the study is that the concept of Islamic wealth management differs from Conventional one. It is very comprehensive that cover all philosophical foundation; ontology, epistemology and axiology. Semantically, it is different from the Conventional, because Islamic wealth management has its own paradigm and philosophical underpinning, derived from Qur’an and Sunnah, and secondary source can traced through Islamic literatures such fiqh, tasawwuf, kalam. In practice level, it can be implemented in Indonesian Islamic banking especially in managing the hajj fund to contribute to economic development of ummah

In mainstream economics, distribution concerns who gets what. “Who” refers to the personal distribution of income among individuals or the functional distribution of income among suppliers of productive factors. Also mainly concerned with the factors which affect the wealth of nations. Issues of justice, elimination of poverty and deprivation are secondary. On other side, Islam not only concern to who gets what, but also concern to how the human gets what equally and justify. Therefore this study uses an analytical approach to present principles and concept of justice distribution derived from the guidance of revelation; Qur’an and Sunnah. The study is derived into two main themes. The firts one deals with theory of juctice and a teview on distribution theory in non-Islamic Paradigm, the second one is the taxonomy of economic distribution theory in Islam

Education is un-separated part of the human society as old as life itself. Human societies time bytime have had vested interests in education. The societies always agree to acknowledge theimportance of education, even a large number of them fail to provide sufficient resources thatcan be used as support to educational institutions and activities. Waqf as an institution andIslamic finance instrument has a direct and un-direct effect to upgrade the capabilities of theneedy and enhance their quality of life by providing access to education facilities. Hence, theWaqf institution surely can accommodate the issue of financing for government’s educationexpenditure in its effective and comprehensive approach. Thus, the main objective of this paperis to propose the model of Waqf financing for reducing government’s education expenditure byusing cost benefit analysis. The methodology of this research is a qualitative research towardsliterature related to Waqf. The general finding of this paper shows that there is should a strongwillingness from government to devote and make Waqf institution as one of financing capitalfor education expenditure.

The main operation of Indonesian Islamic banks is microfinance. Based on Bank Indonesia's Islamic banking model up to May 2013, the performance and estimation of the total assets, financing, and third-party funds are on track for the near future, with scenarios ranging from optimistic to moderate to pessimistic. This chapter investigates the effects of internal and external factors on the performance of the Islamic banking industry, such as its funding and financing activities. It elaborates on the factors affecting Islamic bank financing and nonperforming financing. The chapter assesses the resilience of the Indonesian Islamic banking industry, and recommends policies to be taken. Finally, it explores other Islamic financial institutions and the performance of the Islamic financial market, particularly sukuk and regulatory issues. Besides Islamic banking institutions, nonbank financial institutions—such as insurance (takaful), pawnbroking, mutual funds, and multifinance—also exist in Indonesian Islamic finance and have survived during unfavorable economic conditions.

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%.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengukur tingkat efisiensi Baitul Maal Wat Tamwil (BMT) dengan mengambil studi kasus BMT MMU dan BMT UGT Sidogiri Pasuruan tingkat cabang dengan total sampel 50 cabang. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah Two Stage DEA. Tahap pertama mengukur tingkat efisiensi BMT MMU dan BMT UGT dengan menggunakan DEA. Tahap kedua menguji faktor-faktor internal dan eksternal, yang mempengaruhi tingkat efisiensi BMT MMU dan BMT UGT dengan menggunakan pendekatan Tobit. Hasil penghitungan DEA menunjukkan, efisiensi overall technical BMT MMU (0,84) dan BMT UGT (0,88) pada tahun 2008 masih kurang optimal. Penyebab utama inefisiensi untuk BMT MMU adalah penyaluran pembiayaan, sementara sumber utama inefisiensi BMT UGT adalah penghimpunan dana pihak ketiga yang kurang maksimal. Hasil pengolahan Tobit menunjukkan bahwa kekuatan modal dan ukuran BMT memiliki pengaruh positif secara signifikan terhadap efisiensi overall technical pada dua BMT. Sementara dari sisi eksternal, PDRB perkapita memiliki pengaruh negatif secara signifikan. Adapun pertumbuhan pengangguran, tingkat pendidikan, dan komitmen keberagamaan tidak berpengaruh secara signifikan.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui apakah tiga mekanisme GCG berpengaruh atau tidak terhadap manajemen laba yang diproksikan dengan discretionary accrual (DACC). Mekanisme GCG tersebut adalah Kepemilikan Manajerial (KI), Komite Audit (KA) dan Komisaris Independen (KI). Data yang digunakan adalah data panel sepuluh perusahaan yang termasuk dalam penilaian CGPI selama tiga tahun mulai dari tahun 2006 sampai tahun 2008. Untuk mengetahui apakah variabel-variabel GCG di atas berpengaruh terhadap praktik manajemen laba dilakukan uji regresi berganda dengan pendekatan pooled least square. Dari analisis yang dilakukan dengan menggunakan alpha lima persen diketahui bahwa mekanisme GCG yaitu kepemilikan manajerial berpengaruh secara signifikan terhadap manajemen laba. 27,45% artinya bahwa keragaman dari variabel dependen mampu diterangkan oleh variabel-variabel independen sebesar prosentase tersebut dan sisanya sebesar 72,55% dijelaskan oleh faktor-faktor lain di luar model. Sedangkan mekanisme lain seperti komite audit dan komisaris independen tidak berpengaruh secara signifikan terhadap manajemen laba.

Tarekat atau t} ariqah adalah jalan atau metode yang ditempuh oleh kaum sufi untuk
mendekatkan dirinya kepada Allah Yang Maha Kuasa. Tarekat berbentuk ritual ibadah, doa
dan dzikir yang diajarkan oleh seorang guru kepada muridnya. Hubungan antara guru
tarekat dan murid demikian erat dan kental, sehingga melahirkan rasa kekeluargaan di
antara mereka. Puncak dari tarekat adalah dekatnya jarak antara seorang hamba dengan
Yang Maha Pencipta.

Riset tentang hubungan corporate governance (CG) dan prediktabilitas laba pada bank syariah masih terbatas. Bank syariah menerapkan sistem bagi hasil sebagai pengganti sistem bunga pada bank konvensional. Terlepas dari berbagai kelebihan sistem bagi hasil, sistem ini diduga lebih berisiko terjadinya moral hazard, yang berdampak pada perilaku oportunistik manajer sehingga akan menurunkan kualitas informasi akuntansi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji prediktabilitas laba khususnya kemampuan laba saat ini untuk memprediksi arus kas masa datang dengan menggunakan CG sebagai variabel pemoderasi. Dengan menggunakan sampel bank baik syariah maupun konvensional dari tahun 2007-2010 dan metode pengujian least square, hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa tidak ada bukti yang kuat terkait prediktabilitas laba pada industri perbankan. Pengaruh informasi laba saat ini terhadap aliran kas masa datang tidak signifikan. Namun pelaksanaan CG yang diukur menggunakan skor pemeringkatan hasil self-assessment terbukti memperkuat hubungan laba dan arus kas masa datang. Semakin baik pelaksanaan CG maka semakin kuat prediktabilitas laba. Penelitian ini juga membuktikan bahwa prediktabilitas laba pada bank syariah lebih tinggi dibandingkan konvensional, meskipun dampak pelaksanaan CG terhadap prediktabilitas laba pada kedua jenis bank tidak menunjukkan adanya perbedaan.

Indonesian Islamic financial institutions (IIFIs) are in a cross roads when it comes to financial reporting standards. As the industry is moving towards globalized economy, it is tempted to adopt the generally accepted international standards vis-à-vis Islamic compliant financial reporting standards. The major concern with the former, it is not complied with Islamic values, and therefore, IIFIs are in predicament which one is the most viable financial reporting standard. Thus, this paper aims to explore what are the influences towards adopting international financial reporting in Indonesia and how they impact the IIFIs. From the interactions of the actors associate with the process of standardization, the study suggests that political and economic imperialist motive exists in financial reporting standardization in Indonesia. As the IIFIs are established to demonstrate their accountability for both shareholders and society, therefore, not only their operation must uphold the mutuality concept but also their reporting mechanism.

Diantara tolak ukur pengembangan suatu daerah di Indonesia adalah melalui dana APBD. Bengkalis sebagai salah satu kabupaten di provinsi Riau memiliki dana APBD terbesar kedua di Indonesia. Akan tetapi, besarnya APBD tersebut sangat tidak seimbang jika dibandingkan dengan kehidupan masyarakatnya yang mayoritas berada di bawah garis kemiskinan. Selain itu, dana APBD Bengkalis menjadi “tulang punggung” kehidupan rakyatnya, hal tersebut terlihat dari aktivitas pasar yang mulai ramai saat APBD sudah mulai dapat dicairkan. Kajian ini coba mengulas secara rintis yang dijadikan sebagai kerangka konseptual dalam melihat pengaruh dana APBD kabupaten terhadap peningkatan sarana dan prasarana, juga pengaruhnya terhadap peningkatan taraf ekonomi masyarakat yang hidup di dalamnya.

The main objective of this paper is to analyse determinants that influence implementation of accounting standards for Islamic financial institutions by examining the history of accounting standards and two different contexts as applied to Islamic financial institutions in the United Kingdom and Indonesia. The paper explores available texts and literature mainly from international journals and text books. Employing the Ibn Khaldun perspective, this study analyses two determinants i.e. institutional setting that may be suitable in the context of the United Kingdom, and accounting needs in the case of Indonesia. The research shows the determinants are well fitted with interdisciplinary characters of Ibn Khaldun model of civilization i.e. G = f(S, N, W, j and g). This explains a civilized society is led by the political authority (G) which is influenced concurrently by factors such as the direction of Shari’ah (S), the role of people (N), the use of wealth (W), the development of a country (g), and the promotion of justice (j). This paper has practical significance for accounting standard setters in the Islamic finance industry and policy makers, for understanding the environmental determinant perspective of the country and using this perspective for positioning important aspect in accounting standard setting, developing policies; and articulating procedures to maximize development of Islamic finance

The purpose of this paper is to resolve and examine the possible modus operandi of riba on selling and loan contract according to the Sharia’s precepts. This paper investigate the Qur’an, hadith, and juristic views on such relevant issues based on the survey done on the several sources, i.e., previous studies, Al-Qur’an and Al-Hadith and juristic views and deviate from the existing studies in two aspects, i.e., the selling and buying of goods do not involve riba and also the banks provide loan without riba. The findings of this paper are: First, the concept of interest in lending is widely accepted both in theory and practice. Second, riba exists in selling and lending. Third, the categorization and application of extensive and complex subjects of riba in economic life bring all speculative and usurious transactions under the rubric of riba prohibition. This paper important because express and disclosure riba in both exchange of goods and loans, also the social and economic developments. This is an original undertaking of this paper.

The purpose of this study is to compare the cost efficiency of takaful and its conventional insurance counterparts in Malaysia. The study measures the cost efficiency scores of takaful and conventional insurance companies in Malaysia over the period 2009-2011 using non-parametric Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) based on selected multiple input and output variables. Output variables used are gross premium and investment income while input variables are management expenses, fees and commission expenses. The study finds that conventional insurance companies in Malaysia performed better efficiency than takaful companies in 2011. The finding is consistent with study by Ismail, et al (2011) and Saad (2012). The study suggests that takaful and conventional insurance companies should allocate input more efficiently and improve the quality of services as the average scale efficiency is higher than the average of overall and technical efficiency. Takaful must also be more alert towards external factor costs as the scale of efficiency continuously decreased. In order to be more focused, the study only compares the efficiency of takaful and conventional insurance companies from an input oriented approach. The study is also limited to 7 takaful operators and 19 conventional insurance companies and, as such, the finding is most probably indicative, but does not reflect the overall performance of the takaful industry. As part of a policy recommendation, the study provides data on cost efficiency of conventional insurance and takaful companies in Malaysia, which is valuable for regulators in formulating appropriate policy to enhance the competitiveness of the takaful industry in Malaysia.
