Abstract

Tsangaya system of education, generally called traditional Qur’anic school has been in existence earlier to the British colonization as a source of moral and scholastic training of the Muslim dominated societies in the northern part of Nigeria. The study aims to examine the financial challenges of the Tsangaya system of education in Potiskum area of Yobe State and to examine its effect of the Almajiri. The system which provides, essentially, basic Qur’anic education has contributed tremendously in promoting Qur’anic education, inculcating self-discipline, spiritual growth of Muslim individuals and the communities. The system is also facing several financial related problems which has effected Almajiri (students), teachers and the school as well. Majority of Almajiri (students) hailed from poor families and were sent to Tsangaya schools as Almajiri. Due to the indigent background of their families, the Almajiri do not have the means to support their studies. The lack of the required facilities by the Tsangaya schools for better teaching and learning such as provision of food, accommodation and other basic necessities, has affected the Almajiri. Therefore, this study employed a qualitative approach that entails the techniques of documentation and interviews in collecting data while inductive approach of thematic analysis was utilized for data analysis. The findings revealed that, the system of Tsangaya education were in existence in Potiskum area for a decades and it has affected the lives of the Almajiri in various spheres of lives and its lingering financial problems brought a negative effect to the socio- economic wellbeing of the Almajiri in the area.

Abstract

Background - The phenomenon of the merger of state-owned Islamic banks (BUMN) was predicted to provide increased financing and operational efficiency which has implications for an increase in the level of operating income and profitability. Purpose – The purpose of the research was to examine and analyze the effect of the level of financing to deposit ratio and the level of efficiency of operating income on profitability as measured by return on assets, either directly or indirectly through the net operating margin. Design/methodology/approach – The research method used was quantitative method with a sample size of 60 which was sourced from quarterly reports at the Financial Services Authority (OJK) which was a combination of cross-sectional data from three state-owned Islamic bank companies (Bank Mandiri Syariah, BNI Syariah, and BRI Syariah. ) during the 2015-2019 period. Data analysis in this research used a panel data regression model with the EViews data processing application program Findings – The results showed that by using a significance level of 5%, financing to deposit ratio and operating costs operating income had an effect but not significantly on the net operating margin. Financing to deposit ratio and operating costs operating income directly have a significant effect on return on assets. However, indirectly through the net operating margin, it can be seen that the financing to deposit ratio has an effect but had not significant on return on assets, on the other hand, operating expenses have a negative and significant effect on return on assets. Other findings from this research indicate that the net operating margin variable has not a mediating variable on the effect of financing to deposit ratio on return on assets, on the other hand, the net operating margin variable had a mediating variable on the effect of operating expenses on operating income on return on assets.. Research limitations– The research only includes two independent variables, this is more due to the cross sectional data used is limited to three state-owned Islamic bank companies with panel data regression models. It is recommended for further research to include other independent variables with a multivariable regression model so that it can provide results on improving the performance of Islamic banks after the merger. Originality/value – The results of statistical testing show that the financing to deposit ratio and operating costs operating income have an effect on but not significant to the net operating margin in the merger of BUMN Islamic banks.

Abstract

Purpose- This paper aims to determine the effectiveness of the Islamic tourism guidelines set by the Indonesian Ulama Council in Pamekasan on the development of halal tourism in that regency. In particular, this paper analyzes the suitability of the principles, objectives and characteristics of halal tourism that already exist in Pamekasan. Design/methodology/approach- This paper is written based on a very credible and representative source, which was explored in depth interview with several halal tourism owners, local community leaders, daily administrators of the ulama council, and regional regulators. The refinement of the analysis is carried out comprehensively by connecting the results of observations to the halal tourism guidelines that have been released by MUI Pamekasan Regency. Findings- The results show that the adaptation of sharia to the phenomenon of halal tourism growth in Pamekasan does not refer to the textual guidelines that have been made, but rather the personal figure of the Ulama Council which represents the institution. Social implication- The results show that the socialization of the principles, objectives and characteristics of halal tourism must involve local figures, such as the kyai who owns the pesantren. The existence of these figures has actually become a legitimacy for the community to perceive a halal tourist destination that is suitable for consumption by the community. Originality/value- This paper reveals a novelty in the specification aspect of tourism development objects in Pamekasan, with the intention of finding the character of halal tourism that is acceptable to the public.

Abstract

Given an academic value in the research of environmental sustainability studies, it is reasonable that universities are becoming role models to establish responsible initiatives to support sustainable development and overcome environmental challenges. Considering that, universities and other higher education institutions are implementing sustainability practices to encourage campus communities to understand and grow awareness to protect the environment. This study is conducted to assess awareness and engagement on campus environmental sustainability initiatives among the students and staff of International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM). In this research, a quantitative method was employed and a total of 100 survey questionnaires were randomly distributed to respondents and only 75 of them have completed the survey with a response rate of 75%. Based on the survey, 90.7% of the respondents are aware of the term "sustainability” and are mostly concerned on the energy and water consumption in campus. It is found that, while most respondents were well aware of sustainability on campus, they were also positively motivated and have a willingness to take action accordingly. However, there seems to be a deliberate commitment gap due to given answers by respondents in having insufficient time to engage in environmental sustainability. On the other hand, IIUM has made some positive impacts with initiatives such as promoting waste recycling practices, efficient use of energy, water and many more in considering ways and means to deal more efficiently with environmental issues. The findings suggested that the university could address sustainability issues through other initiatives as in transportation, sustainable landscaping, and sustainable food. This study acknowledged several limitations on time constraints and scope of the study since it involves research across the campus. The article concluded by emphasizing the importance of integrating sustainability on campus as well as on the respective curriculum and educating university students to assist in sustainable development across Malaysia.

Abstract

This paper presents a study on the impact of macroeconomic factors on the market performance of Indonesia sharia stocks that is shown by the JII. The studied macroeconomic factors are the regional and global market indexes, oil price, the FED rate, and the US$ exchange rate.  Regional markets considered in this paper are Singapore and Malaysia. On the other hand, the global markets considered in this paper are Hong Kong, Japan, and the United States of America. For this purpose, we have used global data from the period of 2009-2019. This paper's main contribution is the use of principal component analysis (PCA) to reduce the independent variables. Based on the PCA, it is found that the macroeconomic factors can be simplified into two factors, namely regional and global factors. Moreover, it is found that the oil price, the FED rate, and the US$ exchange rate have no effect on the sharia stock performance. Based on the regression analysis, it is found that these two factors have a positive impact with a significant level of 24.2%. It is also found that the global factor has a greater effect than the regional factor.

Data collection techniques: (1) interviewing the Head of Aisyiyah Regional Leadership (PDA) Bandung City; (2) Focus Group Discussion (FGD) with the management of the Bandung City Economic Council PDA; and (3) distributing questionnaires to representatives of Aisyiyah Branch Managers throughout the city of Bandung. The data analysis was carried out using an interactive model and multiple triangulation for the validity of the data. The results of the study show that the various programs of 'Aisyiyah can continue to run with most of them using information technology tools. Meetings are limited to a few participants, so that organizational meetings attended by thousands of participants can still be held virtually.

Meetings as official organizational communication can still be held using the zoom meeting application. Therefore, physical movement restrictions during this pandemic, there are almost no significant obstacles for the Aisyiyah Organization to continue implementing the program.
