Introduction

The core concept of marketing is to carry out transactions, which is the exchange of values between two parties known as buyers and sellers (Anderson et al, 1999; Bagozzi, 1979). It is important to pay attention to the factors that affect the relationship between both parties using the social exchange theory because people tend to relate with others to fulfill their needs. According to Thibaut and Kelley (1959), the basic assumption underlying the social exchange theory is based on thevoluntarily relationship between people in accordance with buying and selling. .. whereas Allah has justified the sale and purchase and forbid usury....." This means that buying and selling is a halal activity capable of fulfilling the sharia requirements. A zuhud is a person who avoids doubts and makruh while trading with adherence to the legal terms of sale and purchases in accordance with the sharia law.
