“…My interlocutors and the general public expanded their counter-moral discourse against Yan Hisbah by referring to sources of funding for the moral reform project. Under Sharia principles, all business activities and transactions within the capital market should be free from prohibited activities, including those activities deemed doubtful (i.e., Shubuhat) (Ahmed, Yahya, Haron, & Mohamed 2020). In February 2022, the Kano State Hisbah destroyed approximately four million bottles of assorted beer worth millions of dollars, being confiscated from sellers (Vanguard News Nigeria 2022) 6 .…”

This article examines the ambiguous values that guide and sustain livelihood practices and everyday struggles of different classes of people in the context of contemporary Sharia reforms, introduced in Nigeria at the turn of the 21st century. It specifically analyzes the economic impact of the Yan Hisbah (moral police) in Kano in Nigeria, who enforce Islamic moral values in the economy. While the Sharia reformers promise economic prosperity in the face of allegedly failed secular government and economic systems, their interventions come under sustained criticism. Muslim subjects argue that the activities of the Yan Hisbah are limiting economic opportunities and development. They also criticize the Yan Hisba Sharia moral project as an economy thriving in an 'immoral' economy that it seeks to correct. The essay shows that moral economies in the context of state, religious reform, and capitalism are not easy to implement.

“…Muslim's should also obey Islamic principles, especially in their daily behavior (Suhartanto et al, 2019;Zakiah and Al-Aidaros, 2017). In the specific context of financial transactions, the prohibition against riba' (interest/usury), gharar (uncertainty), maysir (gambling) and shubuhat (doubtful) is a fundamental principle of Sharīʿah-compliance (Uddin, 2015;Ahmed et al, 2021). Riba' is categorized into two perspectives: riba' al-fadl (excess taken in exchange for specific homogenous commodities) and riba' alnasi'ah (the excess accruing from a loan transaction).…”

“…Furthermore, maysir refers to wealth obtained by chance, regardless of done by intervening in others or not. Meanwhile, shubuhat refers to a state of confusion in understanding certain things, which causes what is wrong to look right or vice versa (Uddin, 2015;Ahmed et al, 2021). These things often appear and are related to modern banking and financial transactions (Uddin, 2015).…”

Purpose The purpose of this study is to explore a theoretical model using the push-pull-mooring framework which adopts both direct and moderating effects, in relation to building antecedents of Muslim switching intention (SI) from using cash to mobile payment (m-payment). Design/methodology/approach The data collected were 317 respondents, then processed using the partial least squares structural equation modeling approach (SEM-PLS). Furthermore, advanced PLS techniques such as PLS predict, blindfolding and importance-performance map analysis are used to verify the statistical analysis of findings. Findings This research underlines the importance of religious commitment factor when talking about Muslims SI to use m-payment. Moreover, the features of m-payment, such as enjoyment, efficiency, security and convenience, have contributed to the driving and attracting factors for Muslim individuals to switch from cash to m-payment. Practical implications Fundamentally it is highly recommended that the highest concentration of service provider strategies is always obeying the principles of Islamic finance, with regard to the Muslim community as their target market. Specific to the government, the distribution of supporting infrastructure and literacy of new technologies such as m-payment are still important points in an effort to create a cashless society. Originality/value The model in this study emphasizes the internal and external construction of a Muslim in relation to the behavior of SI from using cash to m-payment. Thus, the construction of the model that has been built is considered to bring more relevant factors to explain the m-payment adoption behavior of a Muslim from various perspectives.

“…Furthermore, it does not prohibit or make any recommendations. There are three categories of Muslims (Ahmed et al , 2021) associated with the Syubhat . The first, is those that completely abandon Syubhat matter, the second falls into it and the third try to investigate whether it is halal or haram .…”

Purpose The Opentable strategy is considered a taboo because of its ability to take advantage of peoples’ grief. Therefore, this study aims to explore the Opentable (Exhibition) as a marketing strategy for modern Muslim funeral products, considered a luxury by most people in Indonesia. Design/methodology/approach This is a qualitative research with a phenomenological approach used to collect data from six Memorial Advisors (MAs) through interviews. Findings The result showed that the Opentable strategy was carried out to introduce the concept of a modern Muslim funeral home and its products. Furthermore, MA does not encourage sales during Opentable, rather, it uses the process to obtain complete data from potential customers. Practical implications This research serves as a guidance for MA and other similar professions to socialize products uncommon or considered taboo in society. It also provides a repertory of new marketing strategies, especially for targeted and uncommon products. Originality/value To the best of the knowledge, this is the first research to explore Opentable (Exhibition) as a marketing strategy for modern Muslim funeral products in Indonesia. Therefore, future research is needed on other marketing strategies.
