This study investigates the role of Islamic social finance in supporting green economy development across Muslim-majority countries. Islamic social finance instruments, including zakat, waqf, and sadaqah, are designed to redistribute wealth ethically and address social inequalities, while also offering potential for financing environmentally sustainable projects. Using a quantitative research design and econometric modeling with panel data, the study analyzes the impact of these instruments on environmental performance indicators such as the Green Economy Index (GEI) and Environmental Performance Index (EPI). Secondary data are collected from international sources including the OIC Statistical Database, the World Bank, and the Islamic Development Bank, covering selected countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Pakistan, and Egypt. The analysis includes independent variables representing zakat distribution, waqf assets, and sadaqah volume, with control variables including GDP per capita, governance indicators, and population growth. Descriptive statistics reveal substantial variation in Islamic social finance and environmental performance across countries, indicating the importance of institutional governance and policy integration. Econometric results demonstrate a positive correlation between zakat and waqf development and environmental performance, while sadaqah contributes positively but to a lesser extent. These findings suggest that Islamic social finance can directly support environmental projects, including renewable energy initiatives, sustainable agriculture, and green infrastructure, complementing conventional fiscal tools. The study highlights the advantages of Islamic social finance in promoting justice, sustainability, and ethical allocation of resources, and it emphasizes the need to integrate green objectives into zakat and waqf operational frameworks. Policy recommendations include mainstreaming Islamic social finance into national green policies, enhancing governance and transparency, and encouraging cross-sector collaboration between financial institutions and environmental agencies. Future research is suggested to explore micro-level impacts on household and community environmental behaviors and to conduct comparative studies across regions. Overall, the study underscores the potential of Islamic social finance as a faith-driven, socially inclusive, and environmentally sustainable mechanism for supporting long-term green economic development.

Land and Building Tax (PBB) is one of the revenues for local governments which is very important for funding infrastructure development, health services, education and other public services. PBB has a very significant role in community compliance and awareness in paying PBB in various regions is still said to be low. This is usually caused by several factors such as a lack of socialization, minimal transparency in the use of PBB funds, and low public awareness of the use of PBB payments, which is the main cause of low taxpayer compliance. The aim of this research is to identify strategies to be implemented to increase public awareness and compliance in paying PBB. This research uses a qualitative approach using observation and documentation methods. This research shows that the results show that by having regular outreach campaigns or outreach, utilizing information technology in the payment process, as well as developing a compensation and public quality improvement system funded by PPB, it will be an effective step to increase public compliance in paying taxes. Apart from that, involving several community leaders and non-governmental organizations in tax awareness outreach or education is also able to strengthen community responsibility and participation in regional development. By implementing existing strategies, it is hoped that we will be able to overcome problems such as low awareness and low community compliance in PBB payments, which will then be able to support the sustainability of the ability to achieve goals in implementing regional development programs

Abstract The objectives of this study were to identify the social strata/layers of the fish farming community in Samarinda City and to determine the strategy for aquaculture development in Samarinda City. Respondents in this study were selected using purposive sampling with a total of 26 respondents from fish farmers and 5 staff of the Fisheries Service. Data were analyzed using descriptive qualitative and quantitative and SWOT analysis. The results of the study found that there are two social stratifications in the cultivation community in Samarinda City, namely middlemen/collecting traders and owner fish farmers. Positions as middlemen/collecting traders and fish farmers are status roles that are obtained because they are fought for through their own choices or efforts (achieved status). The top social layer is occupied by middlemen or collecting traders by looking at the level of wealth owned (ownership of vehicles, living conditions and ownership of luxury goods). The strategy that can be carried out for the development of aquaculture in Samarinda City is an aggressive strategy, namely optimizing technology and infrastructure to support the marketing of aquaculture products.

Environmental degradation and poverty remain pressing challenges in Indonesia, exacerbated by rapid economic growth and resource exploitation. The increasing demand for sustainable development has highlighted the need for alternative financial models that integrate both economic growth and environmental protection. Sharia-based green investments have emerged as a promising solution, offering a framework that aligns ethical considerations with sustainability goals. This study examines the impact of Sharia-based green investments on social welfare and environmental sustainability in Indonesia, with a focus on reducing income inequality and fostering community development. Using a mixed-method approach, including quantitative analysis of secondary data on green investment performance and qualitative interviews with key stakeholders, the research evaluates how these investments contribute to enhancing income equality, providing access to renewable energy, and promoting sustainable economic activities. Findings show that Sharia-based green investments not only improve income distribution, especially in rural areas and small businesses, but also contribute to environmental sustainability through renewable energy projects and eco-friendly infrastructure. The study also compares the environmental benefits of Sharia-based investments with conventional models, emphasizing their superior alignment with long-term sustainability goals. The research underscores the potential of Sharia-based green investments as a model for inclusive economic growth and environmental protection, supporting Indonesia’s progress toward achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
