However, some people believe there are alternative currencies besides gold and silver. Starting to implement and use the dinar and dirham currencies is part of muamalah activities. The wheel of Islamic economics is driven by the dinar and dirham cycle, where a currency is used as a medium of exchange, storage, or fair value of wealth. This will lead to the prosperity of humanity. This study aims to find out evidence of the stability of the dinar and dirham values by using qualitative research methods which are methods of understanding and extracting meaning from what happens to various individuals or groups, originating from humanitarian or social problems. Sources of data obtained from textbooks, journals, manuscripts, etc., and sources obtained from trusted websites.
