Abstract

The rapid growth of Islamic financial institutions has not been accompanied by an equivalent increase in Islamic economic literacy, particularly among young learners. This gap reflects a critical issue where individuals possess basic knowledge of Sharia principles but lack the ability to apply them in real financial decision-making. Therefore, this study aims to develop a comprehensive framework for enhancing Islamic economic literacy through Islamic education by integrating contextual and evaluation-based approaches. This study employs a qualitative research design using a systematic literature review. Data were collected from peer-reviewed journal articles, academic books, and official reports indexed in reputable databases such as Scopus and Google Scholar. The inclusion criteria focused on studies related to Islamic economic literacy, contextual learning, and evaluation-based education published within the last ten years. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis to identify key patterns, relationships, and research gaps. The findings indicate that Islamic economic literacy remains largely conceptual and has not been fully internalized into practical financial behavior. The implementation of contextual learning significantly improves learners’ understanding by linking Islamic economic principles to real-life situations. In addition, evaluation-based strategies such as reflective and performance-based assessments play a crucial role in strengthening behavioral transformation and ensuring the sustainability of literacy outcomes. This study contributes by proposing an integrative educational framework that bridges the gap between knowledge and practice through contextual relevance and continuous evaluation. The novelty lies in its multidimensional approach, emphasizing the integration of cognitive, behavioral, and ethical aspects within Islamic economic education.

Abstract

The rapid expansion of the Islamic finance industry has not always been accompanied by adequate Islamic economic literacy among society, creating a gap between institutional development and ethical economic awareness. Education therefore, plays a strategic role in strengthening value-based economic understanding grounded in Islamic principles. This study aims to analyze how education contributes to the development of Islamic economic literacy and how such literacy shapes ethical economic awareness that supports inclusive development. This research adopts an interpretivist–constructivist paradigm using a qualitative multi-site design conducted in three Islamic-based educational institutions implementing Islamic economics in their curriculum. Data were collected from eighteen participants, consisting of educators, students, and curriculum managers through in-depth interviews, classroom observations, and document analysis. The data were analyzed using a constructivist thematic approach to explore the process of value internalization within pedagogical interactions. The findings reveal a sequential pathway in which value-based pedagogical interaction fosters multidimensional Islamic economic literacy encompassing cognitive, affective, and normative dimensions. This literacy subsequently develops ethical economic awareness characterized by moral reasoning, critical evaluation of interest-based financial practices, and a commitment to justice-oriented economic behavior. Furthermore, ethical awareness encourages an inclusive economic orientation reflected in support for cooperative models, profit-sharing practices, and community-based economic initiatives. The study proposes a conceptual framework linking educational meaning-making processes, Islamic economic literacy, ethical consciousness, and inclusive development. These findings highlight the importance of dialogical, reflective, and context-based learning approaches in Islamic economic education to move beyond informational teaching toward value-driven learning that promotes socially responsible economic behavior.
