Introduction: The Covid-19 pandemic is unique because the financial sector is usually affected earlier when a shock occurs, but in this incident, the real industry is more affected. Differences of opinion regarding procyclicality maintain the importance of early indication.

Methods: This study aims to reexamine procyclicality in Islamic banking using the VAR/VECM method.

Results: The results show that Islamic banks are proxies that support economic development without causing bubbles.

Conclusion and suggestion: The avoidance of MAGHRIB (Maysir, Gharar and Riba) ultimately makes Islamic banks have financing characteristics that are different from conventional loans.
