Data was collected through questionnaires distributed to 100 selected respondents using purposive sampling. A quantitative method was employed, utilizing the Structural Equation Model (SEM) with the Smart PLS application for analysis. The findings revealed that social media and digitalization significantly and positively influenced Sharia stock investment decisions among Generation Z. However, the financial literacy did not show a significant impact.
