Journal of Business and Economic Analysis


In the current global financial landscape, integrating sustainability principles is increasingly crucial. Conventional financial models often fall short in addressing social equity, environmental protection, and economic resilience. Islamic finance, with its principles of risk-sharing, asset-backing, and ethical investment, offers a unique solution. However, its potential to contribute to sustainable development goals (SDGs) remains underexplored and underutilised.

There is a critical need to better align Islamic financial models with sustainable development, addressing challenges such as poverty alleviation, climate change, and sustainable infrastructure. These challenges represent an opportunity for Islamic finance to offer innovative solutions and lead to a more inclusive and sustainable financial system. Economic uncertainties, environmental crises, and social inequalities amplify the urgency to explore Islamic finance.
