<![CDATA[The rapid development of digital technology has transformed Indonesia’s online transportation sector, including the rise of account-sharing practices among platform drivers. This study analyzes account lending in ShopeeFood services through a qualitative descriptive–interpretive approach using observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation. Findings indicate that account sharing is primarily driven by economic pressures and administrative barriers, yet it creates ethical issues such as identity mismatch, security risks, and potential moral hazard. From an Islamic business ethics and muamalah perspective, the practice involves elements of gharar and tadlis due to ambiguity in contract execution, violating the principles of ṣidq, amānah, and al-‘adl.

Overall, this research contributes to understanding the ethical implications of account lending and provides normative recommendations for platform companies and Muslim users in fostering integrity-based digital business practices.]]>
