El-Ubaid : Journal of Islamic Economic Studies

El-Ubaid: Journal of Islamic Economic Studies is a peer-reviewed academic journal published biannually (June and December) by the Department of Islamic Economics, Institut Agama Islam Negeri (IAIN) Takengon. The journal serves as a platform for disseminating research findings, conceptual studies, and critical discussions in the field of Islamic economics at local, national, and global levels.

The scope of the journal includes, but is not limited to, Islamic finance, classical and contemporary Islamic economic thought, zakat and waqf management, halal industry, Islamic digital economy, sharia-based entrepreneurship, and economic policy rooted in Islamic values. In addition, El-Ubaid welcomes scholarly work that explores local economic practices inspired by indigenous wisdom—particularly those evolving in the Tanoh Gayo region and Aceh—within the framework of maqashid al-shariah and social justice.

With a commitment to inclusive and value-based academic development, the journal invites contributions from scholars, researchers, practitioners, and students across various disciplines. El-Ubaid aspires to become a reputable reference for advancing Islamic economics and supporting the construction of a just, sustainable, and values-driven economic system.
