Literacy in the application of Islamic Banking is a strategic step in improving students' understanding of sharia-based economics and finance, especially at the Faculty of Economics and Business, University of Riau (FEB-UNRI). This activity aims to address the low penetration of Islamic finance in Indonesia, even though this country has the largest Muslim population in the world. The methods used include lectures, discussions, and training by the community service team and practitioners from Bank Syariah Indonesia. The evaluation results show that of the 13 participating student institutions, less than 50% have used the Islamic financial system, even though the majority of their members are Muslim. This activity has a positive impact in the form of increasing understanding of usury fiqh and a commitment to migrate to the Islamic financial system. The sustainability of this program is recommended to expand the reach of literacy.
