<![CDATA[This study aims to examine the government's role in empowering Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) and to analyze this role from an Islamic economic perspective within the Talang Babat Urban Village. The study is motivated by the persistent challenges faced by MSME operators—such as limited capital and marketing constraints, as well as the unequal distribution of government assistance. A qualitative approach utilizing descriptive methods was employed. Data were gathered through observation, interviews, and documentation. Research informants included the Head of the East Tanjung Jabung Regency Cooperative and MSME Agency and MSME operators in Talang Babat. Data analysis involved data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that the government has played a role in MSME empowerment through training, guidance, mentoring, and business assistance programs. From an Islamic economic perspective, this government role reflects principles of justice, public interest (maslahah), and societal welfare. Nevertheless, challenges remain, specifically regarding the uneven distribution of assistance and limited access to information for some MSME operators.]]>
