Methods of collecting data by means of observation, interviews, questionnaires, and documentation. The data analysis is descriptive analysis where the data obtained is analyzed and then given an explanation and conclusion. The Islamic economic system seeks to fight the principles of usury, maysir and gharar which are the main principles in the application of the conventional economic system. In every conventional economic transaction, these three principles are always put forward.
