Muhammad Izzul Syahmi Zulkepli, Mohammad Taqiuddin Mohamad, Saaidal Razalli Azzuhri

A contract is an important concept to enable a transaction without jeopardizing the rights and security of the transaction’s parties. Its implementation varies either through traditional or modern methods. To date, the smart contract gains attention among industry players and academicians. It is a modern technological innovation that can execute a contract by utilizing a blockchain network. In particular, the researchers view that smart contracts can be adapted in products offering based on various Shariah contracts in Islamic banking institutions, such as financing products based on the tawarruq contract. Nevertheless, it requires detailed research in terms of concept and structure to measure its potential to integrate with Islamic banking operations. Therefore, this study will examine the smart contract concept as well as identify its advantages for Islamic banking institutions’ operations, particularly in tawarruqbased financing products. A qualitative approach based on library studies concerning relevant documents and literature are implemented to achieve these objectives. The collected data were then analyzed using descriptive content analysis methods. The results found that the smart contract is a contract innovation based on blockchain technology that can implement tawarruq-based financing products terms automatically, decentralized, and distributed manner. Thus, its thorough implementation can reduce the risk of faults in transactions and potentially ensure the transparency of transactions’ is well-preserved. However, further research on the risks associated with this technology, especially Shariah risks, needs to be clarified before being fully integrated into Islamic banking operations.

Can Blockchain Technology Improve Accountability and Transparency of Cash Waqf in Indonesia?

Diki Zulkarnaen, Murniati Mukhlısın, Sigid Eko Pramono

One of the problems that occur in the development of cash waqf in Indonesia is the managerial system and financial reporting. Currently, the safety of waqf data is not guaranteed and is not integrated yet between Islamic Financial Institution – Cash Waqf Recipient/LKS-PWU (Lembaga Keuangan Syari’ah – Penerima Wakaf Uang), Nazir, and BWI (Badan Wakaf Indonesia). The blockchain system comes with changing a centralized approach to being decentralized. The use of the blockchain system in managing waqf funds can be a solution to the problem of waqf that occurs. Therefore, this study aims to examine the implementation of blockchain technology in increasing the accountability and transparency of cash waqf in Indonesia. This study adopts an interview technique with seven practitioners and academics in collecting data and using thematic analysis in the analysis. The research finds that the level of accountability in the waqf management by the LKS-PWU of the Islamic bank is quite acceptable, as evidenced by the fulfillment of five accountability indicators by the LKS-PWU. However, it must be improved in several aspects such as data security, data integration, and real-time reporting. Strategies for increasing accountability include the blockchain implementation in the waqf management both in collecting and distributing waqf by LKS-PWU. The opportunity to apply blockchain to waqf management is very potential because the blockchain system has several advantages such as speed, transparency, and a higher level of security than the conventional system.

Legalitas dan Pandangan Majelis Ulama Indonesia terhadap Bitcoin sebagai Alat Transaksi

Ardhi Barkah Apandi, Muhammad Iqbal Fasa, A.Kumedi Ja’far

ABSTRAK
 Bitcoin adalah sistem pembayaran online dari uang elektronik peer-to-peer (P2P) yang dikirim langsung dari satu pihak ke pihak lain tanpa melalui lembaga keuangan. Di Indonesia Bitcoin tidak memiliki legalitas untuk dijadikan sebagai alat transaksi yang sah karena bertentangan dengan Undang-Undang nomor 7 tahun 2011 dan Peraturan Bank Indonesia nomor 17 tahun 2015 serta kepemilikan Bitcoin hanya dianggap sah apabila Bitcoin dijadikan sebagai asset kripto dalam bursa berjangka komoditi. Konsep Bitcoin menurut ulama Indonesia haram karena mengandung gharar dan dharar serta bertentangan dengan Undang-Undang. Gharar disebabkan karena penemu atau penciptanya tidak diketahui secara pasti, tidak adanya otoritas yang memastikan keabsahan transaksi, tidak memiliki nilai intrinsik, tidak memiliki validitas dalam sistem ekonomi, nilainya yang tidak stabil karena volatilitas yang tinggi, sulit untuk diawasi akibat ketidakjelasan pemiliki. Dharar disebabkan karena factor kemanan yang rentan akan peretasan, nilai yang fluktuatif sehingga harga bisa turun drastis dan merugikan pemilik, tidak adanya regulasi yang memberikan jaminan terlindung dari kerugian.
 ABSTRACT
 Bitcoin is an online payment system of peer-to-peer (P2P) electronic money sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution. Bitcoin does not have the legality to be used as a legal transaction tool because it is contrary to Undang-Undang nomor 7 of 2011 and Bank Indonesia Regulation number 17 of 2015 and Bitcoin ownership is only considered legal if Bitcoin is used as a crypto asset in the commodity futures exchange. The concept of Bitcoin according to Indonesian scholars is haram because it contains gharar and dharar and is against the law. Gharar is caused by the inventor or creator is not known with certainty, there is no authority to ensure the validity of transactions, has no intrinsic value, has no validity in the economic system, the value is unstable due to high volatility, difficult to announce due to the uncertainty of the owner. Dharar is caused by security factors that are vulnerable to hacking, fluctuating values ​​so that prices can drop drastically and harm the owner, there is no regulation that guarantees protection from losses.

Halal Haram Cryptocurrency

Idrus Idrus

The invention of the computer which was originally a calculating machine (Difference Engine no. 1) which was discovered by Charles Babbage (1791- 1871) is something very famous in the history of computer development and is the first automatic calculator. With the very rapid development of the digital world, in 1983 an American cryptography expert David Chaum used cryptographic electronic money called e-cash, and in 1995, he implemented it through Digichash, which became the initial form of collaboration between the digital world of computers and Money, which is a cryptographic electronic payment instrument that requires user software to pull notes from the bank and designate a specific encrypted key before it can be sent to the recipient. And in 1996, the NSA, namely the United States National Security Agency, which was founded by President Harry S. Truman on November 4, 1952, had the task and function of collecting and analyzing communications from other countries, as well as protecting information belonging to the United States. The agency published a paper entitled How to Make a Mint: The Cryptography of Anonymous Electronic Cash, describing the Crypto currency system that first published it on the MIT mailing list, later in 1997, in the journal The American Law Review (Vol. 46, Issue 4). It was these researches that eventually led the developers to start developing what is known today as blockchain which is basically a distributed open ledger to record transactions between two parties efficiently and in a verifiable and permanent way. The discovery of Bit coin in 2009 which was declared as electronic money was developed by an institution or individual who has the initials Satoshi Nakamoto, the technology used is using a peer to peer network without centralized storage so that verification can be done anywhere in the world anywhere that dedicates a computer, to do this or it is called mining. Since 2009 other coins and tokens have started to appear, as we can see on CoinMarketcap which has more than 6000 coins and tokens. The utilization and use of this technology is still being debated from the point of view of Muslims in Indonesia, as stated by Yenny Wahid in the activities carried out by the Islamic Law Firm (ILF), this is due to the uncertainty of the asset value which can change at any time.

Community Views About Zakat on Cryptocurrencies

Muhsin Nor Paizin

<p><em>The cryptocurrency industry has exploded, with an increasing number of individuals investing in digital assets — even Malaysians who adhere to Shariah financial norms. The surge in Islamic faith members' involvement in cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum has given birth to Zakat payments. Zakat is the third pillar of Islam, and it compels Muslims to make charitable contributions if they have sufficient means. The major considerations to explore are whether zakat is required on cryptocurrency investments and how the community sees zakat on cryptocurrencies. As a result, this paper will investigate the prospect of </em><em>cryptocurrencies as a digital assets</em><em> being a new source of revenue for zakat from an Islamic perspective by acquiring appropriate rulings (fatwas) and then investigating community attitudes on zakat on cryptocurrency.</em><em></em></p>

The shariah recognition of cryptocurrencies and their usability for waqf

Abdulazeem Abozaid, Saqib Hafiz Khateeb

The shariah issues involving cryptocurrencies include the permissibility of dealing with them given that they are not backed by assets, nor their value is guaranteed by any authority or party. This is in addition to their vulnerability to sharp fluctuations in their values and to electronic piracy; not to mention the infeasibility of controlling their use in illegal activities, such as financing the drug trade and so on. Shariah issues also include whether they possess the necessary shariah characteristics of a valid currency such that their circulation may be subjected to riba rules similar to gold, silver and conventional currencies. The chapter also investigates the extent to which the resemblance of cryptocurrencies to money may qualify them for waqf , such that they can be endowed as waqf ; whether as a charitable waqf or a family waqf . Since Bitcoin is currently the most popular cryptocurrency, the research takes it as a model in this study .
