Islamic Trade Financing and Poverty Mitigation: An Econometric Estimation Informing Islamic Development Bank Member Countries Considering Their Entrepreneurial Ecosystems

This paper is an analysis of the empirical effect of entrepreneurial ecosystems on the relationship between Islamic Trade financing (TF) and poverty trends in the context of Islamic Development Bank (IsDB) member countries. The study is an empirical analysis seeking to find out whether there is a statistical effect of the entrepreneurial ecosystems, measured as Global Entrepreneurship Index (GEI) scores, on the relationship between the Islamic Trade Financing dollar amounts by the IsDB (TF) and the GNI Per Capita, PPP, of all Islamic Development Bank (IsDB) member countries for the years 2009 to 2019. The research is designed as a desk-top longitudinal, correlation, employing the linear dynamic panel data GMM model as an estimator of the empirical relationships between the key variables of the study. The study results show that there is a significant positive relationship between the TF dollar amounts from the IsDB and the GNI Per capita, PPP, and that the ascending entrepreneurial ecosystem positively affects this relationship in the IsDB member countries. Therefore, countries that receive higher Islamic Trade Financing dollar amounts from the IsDB (IF), generally have more GNI Per capita, PPP (less poverty) than their counterparts, but ascending entrepreneurial ecosystem levels raises this positive relationship. It is, therefore, recommendable for IsDB member countries and all other interested countries to formulate policies that facilitate Islamic Trade financing to mitigate poverty and improve their entrepreneurial ecosystems for economic progress. This paper develops policy conversations that guide political discourse on policy topics of poverty mitigation and their relation to financing trade following Islamic products and services, while improving the entrepreneurial environment, thus generating information on policy choices of an Islamic financing nature.

The Quranic Text Approach: A Review of Watt and Crone’s Theses on the Emergence of Islam

Montgomery Watt and Patricia Crone are two figures who are concerned to examine the emergence of Islam in Mecca, whether the trigger is socio-economic, trade, or socio-political, power. Watt states that Mecca from the beginning, which was already a center of pilgrimage, in the next process became an important trading center, giving birth to master traders. In the process, these conditions gave rise to Islam there. Crone, on the other hand, says it was Arab nationalism that determined the development of Islam in Mecca and the Arabian peninsula.This research will re-examine the two theses by trying to reveal through the approach of the Qur'anic texts, because according to the author, the revelation of the Qur'anic text cannot be separated from the situation that occurred at that time. This means that the Qur'an is a response to the situation and conditions according to what happened in Mecca.In searching for existing texts, the author found evidence that Mecca, which developed international trade, had changed the attitudes and behavior of its citizens. In Mecca, the attitude of capitalistic materialism was widespread, so the verse that was revealed gave another warning to the citizens of Mecca to return to the true religion, by conducting relationships with God and building harmony with others in accordance with ethical morality. So Watt's thesis is closer to the truth that it was the trade factor that triggered the emergence of Islam. Unlike Watt, Crone's opinion, according to the author, is not in accordance with the text of the Qur'an. In Mecca there is no text that talks about political power, because Islam is still weak with few followers. Texts related to power only appeared after the hijrah, where it was needed to protect and defend the state of Medina from outside attacks, or even to expand power because of welfare needs, where financial resources were not found in Medina. However, the two opinions can be synergized and one synthesis, that the Mecca factor is indeed very strong as a trigger for the emergence of Islam, of course through trade and through the hands of Mecca residents who were honorable from the beginning and had relations with nations outside the peninsula

HISTORY OF ISLAMIC CIVILIZATION DURING THE REFORM PERIOD

This study aims to examine or study the role of the development of Indonesian Islamic civilization during the reformation period. This research is a library research that is qualitative in nature. Library research is research conducted by collecting library data, reading, recording and processing research materials related to the issues discussed.

Islam in Indonesia has existed since the 7th century and became more widespread in the 13th century. The success of the spread of Islam in Indonesia is among the most dynamic by cultivating religious and political da'wah. Since the era of independence, Islam has developed rapidly. This study aims to examine the existence of Islam in Indonesia today, with an overview before the reform era and after the reform era. The Islamic movement can be said to be very influential. This can be seen from the cancellation of Islamic organizations and parties. Despite its dominant influence as a result, Islam did not become the official ideology of the Indonesian nation state after independence, as in the Jakarta Charter incident, Islamic figures preferred Pancasila as the principle of a pluralistic state. Based on the results of written research that reform is defined as standing as ishlah, which in the ushul fiqh rule "keeps something good from the old and accepts what is better than the new." Therefore, Islamic leaders are required to understand the global situation and have influence in Indonesia. After the reform, there were also various radical Islamic organizations, terror, and these movements demanding the application of Islamic law in all forms of order promoted by certain Islamic movements. These issues make Islam a very sensitive issue, claims against Muslim representation, blasphemy, exclusivity and confusion between religion and politics without criticism. Liking this condition actually complicates the development of Islam in Indonesia, it must consolidate and strengthen the interests of Islam

Analysis of Asnaf Entrepreneurial Development Based on the First Principle of Islamic-based Development

The advent of Covid-19 pandemic, which surprised the world in 2020, has increased the poverty gap worldwide. Malaysia is not spared. In Malaysia, zakat institutions endeavored to develop several poverty management programs to assist asnaf (poor and needy) in meeting their basic necessities while developing their own ability to escape the chains of poverty. Literature suggests that these asnaf are shackled in the poverty culture and requires close supervision. In the zeal of developing these asnaf as entrepreneurs to fulfill their tangible needs, they too need knowledge of their responsibilities as khalifah (caliphs) on earth. This study intends to examine asnaf entrepreneurial development from the perspective of Islamic-based development based on the first principle–tasawwur (or Islamic worldview). It seeks to identify how asnaf entrepreneurial development is associated with tasawwur as the mould to development. This concept covers three fundamental components of Islamic tasawwur. Based on the collection of secondary data through documents reviews and using content analysis, proves that developing asnaf entrepreneurs to be dynamic and pious entrepreneurs who are governed by the Quran’s teachings by emphasizing solely on tangible or material factors alone is inadequate. There needs to be concerted efforts to incorporate the three Islamic tasawwur components. The implication from the findings suggests that there is a need for zakat institutions, government agencies, NGOS, and the asnaf themselve to commit to develop asnaf entrepreneurs by incorporating these components in their poverty management strategies to ensure that the entrepreneurs that are born from such programs are materially independent, imbued with strong resilience requiring minimal supervision.

Commodity Murābahah prevalent in Islamic banks resembles Tawarruq contract and Murābahah lil Amir bi al-shira. Classical fiqh used to be a trust sale in which known profit was charged above the cost price. Islamic banks use Commodity Murābahah as a tool for managing interbank liquidity between the banks.

The question posed by this article is: what were the dynamics of Islamic da'wah in Manado before the COVID-19 pandemic? And how is the transformation of da'wah during the COVID-19 pandemic? Using a historical approach, the author finds two things: First, historically, Islamic da'wah in Manado has taken place simultaneously with the process of Islamization that occurred since the beginning of the 17th century, but da'wah and Islamization began to be massive and had a dominant impact on the development of Islam in Manado since the placement of exiles by the colonial. With the adaptation process, these figures were able to carry out cultural da'wah in Minahasa and Manado. The success of Islamic da'wah in the city of Manado is also inseparable from the role of Islamic organizations such as Alkhairaat, Muhammdiyah, and Nahldatul Ulama. These three organizations do a lot of da'wah through formal education channels by establishing schools, madrassas, and pesantren. Second, during the COVID-19 pandemic, there were no digital da'wah activities that were carried out regularly and systematically and were open to the public by da'wah actors in Manado, both individually and organizationally. Most da'wah practitioners in Manado move individually and are partial, meaning that each dai carries out their da'wah activities individually based on their respective popularity in the community.
