This research scrutinizes the relationship between Love of Money (LOM), hedonic behavior and Islamic religiosity in pursuing life satisfaction in consumption. By utilizing accidental sampling method, the research then employed 99 customers who spent their money in one of the biggest department stores in Malang City. The calculation of data with SmartPLS-3.1.8 revealed that Islamic religiosity significantly affects live satisfaction (β = 0.290; ρ-value = 0.003). In the same time, LOM significantly influences hedonic behavior (β = 0.417; ρ-value = 0.000). However, hedonic behavior does not mediate the relationship between LOM and life satisfaction. This study accordingly concludes that Islamic religiosity plays a main role in consumption. Therefore, it is suggested that every Muslim have to instill Islamic religiosity in daily activities for obtaining life satisfaction.
The crisis of confidence in the credit rating agency forced Islamic financing institutions to apply risk measurement methods independently and renewed the study of credit risk measurement. Moreover, this research also discusses mashlaha (public interest) in measuring financing risk. This research uses a mixed method approach, combining quantitative methods to measure risk by utilizing CreditRisk+, and qualitative methods in analyzing mashlaha in these measurements. This study revealed that CreditRisk+ is able to measure financing risk accurately. This study also found that there is mashlaha as part of maqashid al-sharia in risk measurement, namely 1) Tahdzib al-Fard, that makes a financial institution capable of independently measuring the risk of its own financing; 2) Iqamah al-Adl, independent measurement will create information justice by comparing measurement results both internally and externally. 3) Mashlaha itself, with internal risk measurement, will reduce systemic risk. The implications of this study is the use of mashlaha in analyzing financing risk provides more stringent prudential in the measurement of financing risk.
