Abstract

This paper aims to analyse the role of Maqasid Al-Shariah as a value-added factor in the implementation of ESG for firms' financial performance. Most publicly listed firms are encouraged to get involved in sustainability reporting; however, the adoption rate of ESG among non-financial firms seems unattractive. Therefore, this paper will evaluate the literature review using the systematic literature review approach to justify the role of Maqasid Al-Shariah in implementing ESG. The general conclusion suggested that ESG plays an essential role in financial performance despite the implementation focusing more on cost. The inclusion of Maqasid Al-Shariah in ESG believes that the sustainability of the environment and governance is seen as a robust integration for the long-term benefit of business stakeholders.
