Economic transactions based on usury are one of the activities that have been carried out before the advent of Islam and it is still practiced today. From the perspective of celestial religion, economic activities based on usury have adverse implications and injustice especially to the borrowers. Civil servants are a group that earns a steady income even though the country is facing an uncertain economic environment. In Malaysia, teachers are the largest group of civil servants, comprising one-third of the total. The objective of this study was to look at the knowledge among Muslim teachers about the basics of the concept of riba. Furthermore, look at the influence of knowledge in determining their attitude to make a loan or transaction of a product offered by the bank. This study was conducted through research sampling technique with questionnaire method used as research method. Thus, a total of 255 Muslim teachers in the Sungai Buloh district were selected as study participants. The findings show that the majority of Muslim teachers in the Sungai Buloh district have a high level of knowledge about the basics of usury, but in more specific matters it is found that their level of knowledge is moderate. Taking into account the knowledge of teachers on the religious prohibition of engaging in any form of activity that contains elements of usury, it was found that their attitude is quite cautious in choosing transactions in the bank.

Organizations or government agencies are constantly faced with various forms of threats either from within or outside the environment and these threats can affect the performance, productivity and future of an organization. Today, the average threat to an organization stems from individuals within the organization itself and in turn involves other members who damage the identity of the government organization. Typically, these threats are closely linked to issues of ethics and integrity. Neglect of these two principles can open up opportunities for malpractice, corruption, misconduct and abuse of power in an organization. This article explains the practice of excellent work culture in an organization as stipulated by Islam and applied in the current days. The article exemplifies how Islam stresses on the application of excellent work culture and moral values to be practiced in strengthening an organization. The main purpose of this writing is to identify the elements of work culture in Islam and the characteristics of excellent work culture that every Muslim should know. Apart from that, this writing also aims to describe the challenges in implementing Islamic work culture. In the era of globalization, portraying good work ethics among Muslims is essential. Good work ethics are not only about being a diligent, persistent and loyal workforce, but it is also about being a workforce who integrates Islamic values into their daily life, which do not derail from the values as prescribed in the Qur'an and As-Sunnah. This article also explains how the concepts, conditions, ethics and characteristics of work culture in Islam remain relevant and practicable in today’s society. The basis of work culture for Muslim is to seek the pleasure of Allah SWT. The individual’s connection with God shapes their ethical work culture to be extra careful and diligent in their work practices. They will strive to do their best to obtain the pleasure of God and foster good relationships among their colleagues within the organization. This article also highlights the need for every Muslim to embrace Shariahcompliant practices in all aspects of their work. This writing instrumented the qualitative research as its methodology by conducting a library study of the sources of the Quran and hadith as well as scientific materials such as journal articles, reference books from religious scholars related to the scope of the study topic. The results of this writing can be used as a reference and guidance to increase the level of awareness, open the minds of every Muslim as well as remind each party to fulfill their rights and responsibilities towards every job entrusted to them. Work in the Islamic concept is often associated to the term charity which has a wider scope than simply working for profit or wages. It is hoped that this writing can be used as a guideline or standard for all employees and organizations to work in line with Islamic requirements.
