However, along with the development of the era of usury transactions in the banking world today it is increasingly difficult to avoid, including financial institutions that are labeled sharia. One of the causes of the low quantitative development of the Islamic finance industry is the lack of public awareness about financial literacy, especially Islamic financial literacy.
