In the implementation of the profit sharing system between Islamic banks and its debtors, the ratio of the agreed results when the contract is the main determinant. The amount of this ratio considers the possibility of profit and loss and the amount of profit gained. The profit sharing depends entirely on the benefits achieved from the project carried out. If there is no profit, losses will be borne together by both parties. The amount of profit sharing will increase according to an increase in the amount of income.
