The challenges of today's world are becoming increasingly evident with the rise of global issues such as climate change, resource scarcity, environmental degradation, and socio-economic disparities. This situation demonstrates that the conventional linear economic model has significant limitations in addressing current realities. Although the circular economy approach is recognised for its potential to enhance resource efficiency, it still lacks sufficient emphasis on ethics and social justice. In this context, this study seeks to address this gap by proposing a framework that integrates Islamic moral economy, circular economy principles, and elements of digital transformation. This approach aims to contribute to a more comprehensive and sustainable development model. The study employs a qualitative method based on a literature review, examining current research related to Islamic economics, Maqasid al-Shariah, circular economy practices, and digital technology. Guided by fundamental Islamic principles such as tauhid (unity), khalifah (stewardship), adl (justice), and the prohibition of israf (wastefulness), as well as the extension of the Maqasid al-Shariah framework to include environmental conservation (hifdz al-bi’ah), a theoretical framework has been developed. The findings indicate strong compatibility between Islamic ethical values and the principles of the circular economy, particularly in the areas of resource conservation, intergenerational justice, and social inclusion.
