Abstract

In the Islamic perspective, strategic transformation aims to shift the traditional approach of the religion toward a more digitized framework. Islamic Religious Councils (IRCs) struggle with challenges in aligning with this transformation, such as reconciling traditional Islamic principles with contemporary values, addressing the rise of extremism, navigating cultural and political disparities, making non-Muslim participants more involved, and establishing a vigorous organisational structure. This study endeavors to explore the roles of strategic transformation within the global context of IRCs. Employing Systematic Literature Review as the primary methodology, 17 relevant articles were identified, selected for in-depth review, and analysed thematically. Findings from the study findings revealed seven key roles of strategic transformation in IRCs, encompassing: 1) Digital Financial Services and Inclusion; 2) Strategic Financial Stability; 3) Organisational Adaptation and Flexibility; 4) Customer-centric Digital Transformation; 5) Islamic Awareness and Online Education; 6) Efficiency and Transparency in Religious Management; as well as 7) Media Influence and Communication Strategies. The study contributes to existing literature by identifying associated theories that have a potential for further development, as well as creating opportunities for scholars and practitioners to delve into research initiatives addressing practical issues related to this study.
