Thus the pawnshop was established consistently with lslamic regulation. The operation of Ar- Rahnu scheme will be discussed in detail in order to conform and proved to the
customers that the business transaction are free from usury and give priority to the customer's welfare. The differences between Islamic pawnshop and convetional pawnshop will be discussed thoroughly to expose the customers that econventional pawnshop implement the practice of repression, deception and exploiting them for the purpose of making profit.
