Abstrak

This study aims to systematically examine the basic concept of digital-based Islamic education financing, the potential of the digital economy in the modern era, implementation strategies, and the challenges and solutions faced in its development. The method used was a systematic literature review of 18 national and international scientific journal articles published in the last five years (2019–2024). The results show that the digitalization of Islamic education financing is realized through various forms such as Islamic fintech, zakat crowdfunding, Islamic peer-to-peer lending, and the development of digital business units by educational institutions. The potential of the digital economy is proven to be large by the use of social media platforms, e-commerce, and digital-based Islamic content as alternative financing sources. Strategies used include integrating a digital entrepreneurship curriculum, strengthening human resource capacity, developing technological infrastructure, and collaborating with Islamic financial institutions and digital Muslim communities. Challenges faced include limited infrastructure, low digital literacy, and resistance to innovation. This study concludes that digital entrepreneurship is a transformative and sustainable financing alternative for Islamic educational institutions. This research also provides practical recommendations in the form of digital entrepreneurship curriculum integration, digital literacy training, the establishment of sharia-based business units, and national policy support.
