Mapping Maqasid Al-Shariah to UN Sustainable Development Goals
VIS Credit Rating Company Limited issues this methodology to systematically map the five core objectives of Islamic law, known as Maqasid Al-Shariah, to all 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals. The framework utilizes qualitative content analysis and a comparative matrix to align religious, life, intellect, progeny, and wealth protections with specific SDG targets, enabling Islamic financial institutions and governments to integrate Shariah-compliant values into global sustainability initiatives. By demonstrating this convergence, the methodology accelerates progress toward the 2030 SDG agenda through culturally relevant, ethically grounded, and equitable development pathways.
