Abstract

This Community Service programme aimed to enhance students’ understanding and awareness of Islamic finance and Indonesia’s Sharia capital market through an educational and participatory approach grounded in Islamic Economic Theory. The programme was conducted using a hybrid model, involving Indonesian students at Al-Azhar University, Cairo, and students from various Muhammadiyah Aisyiyah Higher Education Institutions in Indonesia. A total of approximately 404 students participated. Data were collected through observation, documentation, and interactive discussions, and analysed using a qualitative descriptive approach. The results indicate positive improvements in participants’ understanding of Islamic financial principles, Sharia capital market mechanisms, and Sharia-compliant investment instruments. Increased understanding was reflected in active participation, substantive discussion, and the ability to relate investment concepts to Islamic values such as justice, transparency, social responsibility, and the avoidance of riba, gharar, and maysir.
