Design/Methodology/Approach: This legal research is a normative legal study with two approaches: statute and conceptual approaches. Primary sources from Finance agreements in Islamic banks and statutes/rules. Secondary sources are books, journals, research, and dictionary. The legal analysis is carried out by classification of primary and secondary sources using the statute and conceptual approaches. Findings: The spread of the covid-19 virus has had many impacts on the ability of Islamic bank debtors to carry out their achievements due to the difficult conditions experienced due to restrictions by the government.

The occurrence of hardship for sharia bank customers provides an opportunity for customers to apply for contract renegotiation in the context of adjusting problematic contracts in the form of rescheduling, reconditioning, or restructuring.
