<![CDATA[The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have prompted scholars to revisit the ethical foundations and philosophical frameworks underlying economic planning and development strategies. Although the SDGs offer a comprehensive blueprint, criticisms have been raised regarding their secular orientation and lack of integration of spiritual and moral values. Therefore, this study examines the integration of Maqasid al-Shariah, the main objectives of Islamic sharia, into the sustainable development framework in order to develop a more balanced and value-based approach to economic planning. The main objectives of this study are to conceptually map the alignment between the five main maqasid (protection of religion, life, mind, lineage, and property) with the SDGs targets, and to propose a practical integrative model in formulating economic policies in the context of Muslim-majority countries. The method used is descriptive-qualitative and conceptual analysis, supported by a bibliometric review of recent literature (2019–2024). The main findings indicate that maqasid al-shariah not only complements the SDGs, but also enriches their moral dimension through the principles of justice, accountability, and spiritual sustainability.]]>
