Entrepreneurship from an Islamic perspective offers a unique approach that integrates ethical values, socio-economic development, and sustainability into business practices. This study explores the foundational principles of Islamic entrepreneurship, such as justice (Adl), trustworthiness (Amanah), and public welfare (Maslahah), highlighting their role in shaping ethical entrepreneurial behavior. Historical examples and modern interpretations demonstrate the compatibility of these principles with contemporary business trends, including corporate social responsibility and sustainability. However, challenges such as misconceptions, resource constraints, and cultural variations hinder its widespread adoption. The study also examines the role of technology and Shariah-compliant financial models in expanding the reach of Islamic entrepreneurship. Recommendations emphasize the importance of education, institutional support, and leveraging technology to overcome these barriers. This research concludes that Islamic entrepreneurship provides a sustainable and inclusive framework for addressing modern economic and social challenges while promoting ethical business practices.
