This study investigates the English language needs of Islamic Economic Law students at STITNU Sakinah Dharmasraya. In the era of globalization, English proficiency is crucial for academic and professional success, particularly in fields that intersect with global issues, such as Islamic economic law. This research is using a qualitative descriptive approach, the research involved interviews, observations, and data analysis to identify students’ English competencies and challenges. The Findings in this research show that students require strong skills in reading, writing, speaking, and listening, especially to understand international literature, compose academic and legal documents, and participate in global discourse. However, students face major obstacles such as limited vocabulary rela ted to Sharia and economic terminology, and a lack of confidence in speaking due to minimal exposure. Despite these challenges, students demonstrate high motivation to improve their English for academic advancement and career opportunities.
