Islamic Financial Institutions (Banking)
Research on the "role of the economy and Islamic financial institutions in dealing with COVID-19 " has been conducted by several researchers (Jefik Zulfikar Hafizd, 2020. Azwar Iskandar , 2020.

Besides that, the community does not feel disadvantaged because it is based on consensual and does not feel oppressed when mortgaging goods (Qur, 2020). And other research says financial institutions have an important role to channel financial literacy for each of their customers. With sufficient knowledge, people will avoid financial shocks (Tulasmi, 2020).

Vol. 1 No. 2 July 2022 company can be declared current if it is offered to debtors who are recognized as being affected by the spread of Covid-19 as a method (Otoritas Jasa Keuangan, 2020).
In this regulation, the following is the OJK regulation Number 11/POJK.03/2020 concerning the Stimulus of the national economy as a countercyclical policy due to the impact of the spread of the Coronavirus. as : Debtors who receive special treatment in the POJK include debtors (including MSME debtors) who have difficulty fulfilling their commitments to banking due to the Covid-19 virus outbreak which has an impact on the debtor or debtor's business. Article 6 of POJK Regulation Number 11. POJK/03/2020 refers to this case. The spread of Coronavirus Disease 2019 applies to credit or financing that meets the following requirements: The role of Islamic banking in dealing with socio-economic problems during the Covid-19 pandemic is the role of independent Islamic banks (BSM), namely, prioritizing the achievement of Islamic maqhasid. the result of the research is that BSM provides assistance to the community by distributing various Covid-19 assistance, including: 1) Restructuring in financing worth IDR 7.1 trillion to more than 29,000 customers; 2) Distribution of 2,500 personal protective equipment (PPE) and 100,000 masks to 105 Covid-19 referral hospitals; 3) Distribution of 3 tons of rice for each orphanage; 4) Distribution of 26,600 food packages; and 5) Distribution of 18,000 masks for Islamic boarding schools. Another role is digital services, seen from the increase in the number of MSM (mandiri sharia mobile) users who help reduce activities outside the home, making it easier for people to make transactions. This digital service activity has increased by 45 percent from 860 thousand customers in June 2019 to 1.25 million customers in June 2020.Perekonomian et al., "Peran Bank Syariah Mandiri ( BSM )." Another research regarding "The Role of Islamic Banking in encouraging MSMEs during the Covid-19 Pandemic". Islamic banking plays an important role in maintaining MSMEs during the Covid-19 pandemic by channeling government programs, namely by financing KUR (People's Business Credit). during the Covid-19 pandemic in accordance with the regulations of the Financial Services Authority or POJK article 7 paragraph 1 of 2020 and provide restructuring or relaxation of waivers to entrepreneurs affected by Covid-19, simplifying the financing process for entrepreneurs affected by Covid-19 as long as their businesses are not seriously affected. significant, as determined by the government through the POJK regulation article 5 paragraph 2 of 2020 .
The results of the study above state that. First, the role of Islamic banking is to implement the distribution of social activities, such as distribution of funds and assistance with health protocol tools to prevent the transmission of the Covid-19 virus. Second, other roles are channeling government programs in facilitating financing distribution and providing installment relief to customers affected by Covid-19, and MSME actors. Third, the role of digital services to make transactions easier during this pandemic, this role provides fresh air for customers and the community, this policy encourages the community and MSME actors to survive and maintain their business.
Islamic banking, on the other hand, is needed in its function of serving consumers through digitizing bank services, both in terms of raising funds and financing. The role of digital services is still very weak, there are still many people who have not used this digital service, with the Covid-19 virus the problem of spreading the virus must also be seen as a challenge that must be turned into an opportunity to improve quality, especially in the field of digital services, according to the Chairman of the Non-Professional Committee. -Regulator of the Indonesian Sharia Bank Association (Asbisindo) Herwin Bustaman said "since this pandemic there has been a drastic change from the behavior of customers who prefer to do digital transactions so that it becomes a new opportunity but there are still challenges faced by Islamic banks, especially related to investment and human resources".
Another challenge is the lack of human resources that are still limited in understanding digital banking, because Islamic banking is slightly different from conventional banking which requires several special competencies in addition to a general understanding of banking, faith, and muamalah, especially when it comes to the application of digitalization.
The author's observation, the role of digitizing this service is very much needed, especially in remote areas who still have difficulty accessing digital services due to limitations and lack of understanding, signal coverage and system errors that require customers to still have to carry out activities outside the home, the role of digital services should be explained and clarified to the public. people who initially found it difficult to use technology. The role of banks in providing aspects of digital or technological services that are needed is to minimize the possibility of the transmission of this virus, because according to the WHO (World Health Organization) the transmission of the Covid-19 virus can also be through paper money and other banking activities.
The role of Islamic financial institutions (Islamic pawnshops) in dealing with socioeconomic problems during the Covid-19 pandemic, one of the results of the research is the role of sharia pawnshops, namely: sharia pawnshops provide assistance to the community through the distribution of Covid-19 assistance, such as: 1) restructuring and relaxation credit, Pawn Care with 0% interest. 2) distribution of MSME interest subsidies. 3) handing over cash assistance to the community. 4) providing basic food assistance, medical equipment, personal protective equipment for health workers, ambulances, and other assistance in the context of preventing and handling the Covid-19 pandemic (Kuswiyoto., 2020).
According to the book "Banks and other Financial Institutions" the role of pawnshops is very important because they can offer cash through a special system that is tailored to the needs of the community, especially in small towns and rural areas. Pegadaian can also provide support to small villages, pawnshops traditionally meet the needs of the smallest community, it can be said that the government helps those who are less fortunate, for example by reducing the interest burden on loans (Soemitra, 2018).
Other research says that the role of sharia pawnshops is very useful during the Covid-19 pandemic because it can help and facilitate the community in meeting their consumption needs

NUIEJ
Vol. 1 No. 2 July 2022 and is also very beneficial for people who do not feel disadvantaged because they are consensual and do not feel oppressed when buying goods .
The results of the research above regarding the role of pawnshops, that the role of pawnshops is to pawn their property to a third party in exchange for a certain amount of money or goods that are guaranteed to be redeemed according to the terms of the agreement between the pawnshop and the customer. In addition, Pegadaian contributes to providing flexibility by easing the waiver of late payment fees, providing 0% interest and restructuring loans so that business can continue during the COVID-19 pandemic.
However, the role of pawnshops currently plays an important role in realizing community economic empowerment, especially people with lower middle incomes or Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in an area. Helping economic development is a very important role for mortgages because they provide loans in consumptive and productive forms. The existence of this Covid-19 Virus requires pawnshops to provide solutions so that pawnshops continue to run well and make it easier for customers to transact, one solution is to create programs such as presenting an inclusive digital ecosystem. According to LinkAja's Marketing Director, Edward Kilian Suwignyo, "as a national electronic money that aims to support the government that can be enjoyed by all Indonesian people. As a national electronic money that aims to support the government and can be accessed by all Indonesian people. The pawnshop's collaboration with LinkAja is a manifestation of one of the pawnshop's missions to improve service convenience and provide service excellence aimed at easier and digital business processes. As a national electronic money, the importance of LinkAja's role is also as an encouragement for pawnshops, to open new channels for consumers who pawn goods or look for pawned goods.
The role of Islamic financial institutions (Baitul Maal Wa Tamwil Cooperative (BMT)) also has a role in dealing with socio-economic problems during the Covid-19 pandemic, namely by carrying out government regulations that have been made through the OJK, namely, as stated in POJK No.11 POJK.03/ 2020 to provide concessions to customers who are experiencing the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, another sharia financial institution (cooperative), namely Baitul Maal Tamwil (BMT), has an important role as a social intermediary institution by collecting Zakat, Infaq, alms and Waqf funds and encouraging such as the distribution of qardhul hasan financing, ease of cooperation contracts (mudharabah) so that they can help MSMEs to resume their business despite the Covid-19 pandemic (Bakhri, 2018). In addition, BMT also provides financing for MSMEs of approximately 10 million to 30 million per customer.
Other research on "The role of Baitul Maal Wa Tamwil (BMT) in the effort to empower the community's economy" is one of the participations in the success of development to move and empower the people's economy, can help MSME actors in socio-economic problems during the COVID-19 pandemic and minimize the number of poor people living in poverty. exist in Indonesia. Technological-economic knowledge can be a fairly good consideration in efforts to develop micro-enterprises, especially those played by BMT (Mashuri, 2016).
With the problems faced by MSME actors, Baitul Maal Wat Tamwil also uses the sharia system in order to overcome the lack of capital experienced by MSME actors. Because BMT is a strength for the community in the economic field by helping the financial and capital needs of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) (Nifti Hidayati, n.d.).

DISCUSSION
As for efforts to protect MSMEs in Indonesia, Mr. Teten Masduki as Minister of Cooperatives and SMEs proposed several solutions to protect MSMEs during the Covid-19 Pandemic, including (Muslim, 2020): 1. During the pandemic, the Indonesian people must love domestic products in meeting their needs, so that the production of MSME goods will still be known.
2. Always carry out social distancing during operation by carrying out health protocols according to existing provisions.
3. Banks must subsidize low loan interest rates for MSME actors so that they have no difficulty in obtaining funds during the pandemic. 4. Making loans specifically for cooperatives and MSMEs in terms of requirements will be easier but still pay attention not to default.
4. The community, especially MSME actors, must always use masks when selling, even though their main business stops but they are still productive by looking for new business opportunities during the pandemic.
5. Provide pre-employment cards to business actors who are vulnerable to being hit by COVID-19.
6. Provide direct cash assistance (BLT), especially to business actors who have been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
The results of the research above explain that the role of the Islamic financial institution Baitul Maal Wattamil (BMT) in carrying out financial incentive programs such as distributing charitable loans or distributing qardhul hasan, flexibility in cooperation contracts (mudharabah) can help people re-manage micro businesses. Other roles are needed in helping MSME actors, assistance through financing, capital, either directly or indirectly. this role is very helpful in overcoming socio-economic problems in a state of the covid-19 pandemic, the community can improve living standards through greater efforts.
However, the presence of BMT's role in strengthening MSME capital through financing provided to MSMEs during a pandemic. When viewed from the number of beneficiaries, the number of BMT services is already very large. In addition to financing, the importance of BMT for MSMEs lies in technical assistance. As the name implies, BMT has two main functions, one of which is as Baitul Maal or a social treasury house. Baitul Maal aims to provide a large number of authorizations for small community groups. Therefore, BMT has social activities to help the community's economy, which can be in the form of: fundraising, distributing funds, and providing services. The role of Baitul Maal also aims to keep people away from nonsyari'ah and to plan and advise small businesses to avoid loan sharks. So BMT came to help

Vol. 1 No. 2 July 2022 and provide capital assistance so that MSME actors could start their business again (Aziz, 2016).
Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, the role of financial institutions in general was as implementers of social activities, for economic prosperity and justice, halal promotion in order to generate more transparent profits. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Islamic financial institutions have a slightly different role, namely to meet the needs of the community in the form of funds as a means to carry out economic activities in accordance with the principles of sharia law. During this Covid-19 period, Islamic financial institutions also have an important role, namely distributing program assistance that has been made by the government for the community and MSME actors affected by Covid-19, a role that has been felt by many people, namely Restructuring financing for customers and affected communities. Covid-19. These roles and policies were responded positively by the general public and certainly provided a bit of fresh air, because not only to help people affected by the Covid-19 pandemic, but also to bring fresh air to Islamic financial institutions.
From the explanation of the research results above, it can be understood that the role of Islamic financial institutions during the Covid-19 pandemic is very important and has the potential for all sectors to assist the government in carrying out various policies to overcome social problems during this pandemic. Various financial industries such as sharia banking, sharia pawnshops, and BMT also welcomed the policy, this policy greatly helped reduce the burden on people affected by the Covid-19 pandemic to continue operating and pay off company debts and the community could prioritize meeting basic needs to survive.

CONCLUSION
The role of Islamic Banking is, First, as the executor of the distribution of social activities such as distribution of funds and assistance for health protocol tools to prevent the spread of the Covid-19 virus. Second, channeling government programs to facilitate the distribution of financing such as KUR (People's Business Credit) and providing installment relief for customers affected by Covid-19, and MSME actors. Third, its role is to serve customers through digital bank services, both in fundraising and financing services as well as a role in providing understanding to customers in implementing digital services to facilitate transactions to prevent the spread of the Covid-19 Virus.
The role of sharia pawnshops also has a role in dealing with socio-economic problems during the Covid-19 pandemic, restructuring and relaxation of credit, 0% interest mortgages, distribution of discounts for MSMEs, handing over cash assistance to the public. The role of pawnshops is also very useful during this covid-19 pandemic because it makes it easier for people to meet consumptive needs, and is also beneficial for the community and does not feel disadvantaged because it is based on consensual and not oppressed when pawning goods.
The role of BMT in dealing with socio-economic problems, namely, the role as a social intermediary institution by collecting Ziswaf and implementing financial stimulus measures
