Abstract

The conflict over the implementation of the Qanun in Sharia financial institutions in Aceh received a lot of news and protests from various parties, which were raised and disseminated nationally. Several media framed this by reporting that the Qanun had caused high unemployment rates, poverty and limited community activities due to Aceh's general use of bank products. The formulation of the problem in this research is to describe the contestation of discourse in Aceh regarding the prohibition of conventional banks. This research aims to analyze miscommunication, misperceptions and rejection of the implementation of Qanun in Sharia financial institutions. This type of research is qualitative with a philosophical descriptive approach. The data sources in the research are interviews at the grassroots (coffee shop community), online news, the Aceh Sharia Economic Society, IAEI Aceh, OJK, religious figures, and several Acehnese economists. Primary data was also obtained from researcher observations in 2019 and 2022 in Aceh. Secondary data in this research comes from relevant documents. The analysis technique uses triangulation techniques with an integration-interconnection paradigm. The findings in this research are that the conflict that emerged was only exaggerated by the media because the media exaggerated the protests without a comprehensive and objective analysis. This study offers appropriate solutions, strategies and models to support the accelerated implementation of Qanun so that its benefits can be realized and bring benefits to the more sustainable progress of Aceh through the advancement of maqashid sharia.
