The contribution of Islamic banking towards economic growth remains debatable amongst academicians and practitioners. This study investigates the relationship between Islamic banks’ financing and economic growth in Indonesia which is the largest Muslim population country. This study adopts Autoregressive-Distributed Lag (ARDL) and utilizes time-series quarterly data from 2011Q1 to 2019Q3. The study uses four predictors: financing to deposit ratio; inflation; gross capital fixed formation; and trade openness. The results from the auto-regressive distributed lag model indicate that, in the long-run, Islamic banks' financing has a significant impact on the Indonesian economy. However, in the short-run, financing does not make a substantial contribution to Indonesian economic growth. The study’s key implication is that financing by Islamic banks still makes a limited contribution to economic growth in Indonesia. This study enhances the literature review, specifically on evaluating the contribution of Islamic banks towards economic growth. Numerous existing studies on this topic covering the crisis period data, which might suffer from data bias. Therefore, this study addresses this topic, excluding the global financial crises period such as 1998, 2008, and 2020, to demonstrate Islamic banks' evident contribution to Indonesian economic growth.

“…Just like Conventional Banks, Islamic banks function as intermediaries for channeling and there is a deficit saving sector to encourage activities in the economic sector. The difference is that the financial instrument is interest-free and runs according to Islamic law (Mohd. Yusof & Bahlous, 2013) Islamic finance can play an important role in encouraging economic growth in Indonesia, namely by financing the real sectors.…”

This research aims to study the impact that banking development attributed to Islamic banks is instigating on the economic growth and domestic investment in a dataset consisting of 20 countries having Islamic and conventional banks operating side by side over the period 1995 to 2014, using the "two-step system GMM" technique. Furthermore, it also inspects the difference in the impact that Islamic banking development is asserting on economic activity as compared to the impact attributed to conventional banking development using four measures of banking sector development namely, depth of financial intermediation, size of financial intermediation, credit to the private sector, and the ratio of assets of banks to the total banking assets. Our findings suggest that Islamic banks promote economic growth and domestic investment by increasing the depth and size of their intermediation, and by extending more credit to the private sector. Conventional banking development also stimulates economic growth and domestic investment by increasing its assets as a percentage of total banking assets. Islamic banking has a more meaningful impact on economic activity as its transactions are based on physical assets and linked to the real economy. Sharī'ah promotes social justice and equity and prohibits them from undertaking harmful products and activities.
