Using Analytical Hierarchy Process, the result shows that area of zakat-waqaf and poverty alleviation is considered as the most important area followed by monetary system including Islamic currency. Despite the large number of studies done in Islamic banking, the respondents have considered that the area is not able to answer or give solution to the ultimate goal of the establishment of Islamic economic and finance.
